"Do I?" Xiang Ling asked. "Know you at all?" Despite the warning in Xin Cheng's tone, nothing changed in the way she was glaring at him with question filled eyes.
The man took in a deep breath before he grabbed her hand and turned toward the others. "We are going to take a look around. We will be back soon." He didn't wait to hear anyone's response and walked away with Xiang Ling.
