Joy was stunned for a moment, but her heart was more nervous. She was not stupid enough to think that Mr. Mo and Arnold left to let her go. But this is a good opportunity for her. When will she stay if she doesn't go now?

She came to this white area more than an hour ago. If she is lucky, maybe she still remembers the way out. But after running for a while, she stopped depressed. She was blind and lost her way.

But it doesn't matter. It's such a big place. She hides first, and then slowly finds a way.

She opened a heavy wooden door next to her, which was different from those cold white outside. The room was very dark and quiet. The gloomy light seemed to cover the room with a thin layer of gauze, and everything looked shadowy.

Joey walked carefully through the big room. It was quiet all around. She could hear her heartbeat: Bang! Bang bang!

Suddenly, she stopped. Five meters away from her, there was a tall carved Chinese screen with curly clouds. Several swimming dragons took off, beautifully carved and lifelike.

Joey stopped, not because he was attracted by the exquisite screen, nor because the Chinese screen in such a westernized room felt very abrupt, but because there was a person sitting behind the screen.

The screen covered most of his body. Through the hollowed out lattice, Joey saw his dark blue dress and the silver button shining under the lamp.

She had seen him several times today, but no time had made her so frightened as now. She even held her breath and didn't dare to move. She just hoped that the person didn't see her, and then she could quietly quit.

But her little hope lasted only three seconds, or less, and the man's cold voice rang in the room.

"You kept me waiting."

Joey opened her mouth. Are you talking to her? He's waiting for her? Why?

She was not sure, so she stood still.

"Come here." There was a trace of impatience in the man's cold voice.

Joey closed his eyes tightly, then opened them fiercely, and went over to see what he could do to her?

Joey quickly walked over and pretended to be surprised: "what a coincidence, I met you again, but I seem to be lost again. Can you take me out?"

The man sat back in a big chair and looked a little lazy. When he looked up, Joey couldn't help being surprised.

He didn't wear a mask and looked at her with a very handsome face. In the dim light, his outline looked very soft. His neat short hair, dark eyebrows, and his eyes were as clear as the lake water under the night, but faint luster. The bridge of the nose is straight and the thin lips are soft. It's really a beautiful face like ice and snow, like a character from a comic book.

Joy's heart trembled for a moment. Mom, there are such beautiful men in the world!

Although the man's eyes were a little cold, she blushed inexplicably and lowered her head slightly.

The man saw the amazement in her eyes, showed a look of disgust, and said coldly, "step back two steps."

Uh? Joey looked up at him and took two obedient steps back.

The man changed his comfortable posture, put one hand on his chin, and his cold eyes looked at her carefully from head to foot like a scanner.

Joey's heart beat wildly in his long gaze. She was not a flower maniac, but she couldn't help getting excited when she was stared at by such beautiful eyes.

"Why did you lie to me?" The man suddenly opened his mouth.

Joey was stunned for a moment, and her face became more red. "That, I..." she couldn't answer, but she just felt that she shouldn't tell him her real name at that time. She wouldn't lie until she knew he had such a face.

"Is it a habit? Used to lying? "

"No, it's not," Joey retorted quickly. Although she is not a first-class citizen, she still doesn't like lying in general.
