The four kidnappers were tightly bound and linked together, and more importantly, their mouths were sealed shut.
With Lu Yang's surveillance added to the mix,
it's safe to say that these four kidnappers were no longer capable of causing any trouble.
However, carrying Lin Qingxue on his back was somewhat uncomfortable for Lu Yang.
Despite the intimate contact that couldn't compare to when they slept naked and embraced.
But that was unconscious.
It didn't elicit any particular reaction from Lu Yang.
Which was starkly different from the current state of full awareness.
Moreover, he now had to support Lin Qingxue's thighs with his hands, even slightly touching her buttocks at times.
This seemingly lesser contact than nudity actually stirred up more imagination.
And for Lu Yang, imagination meant desire.
Harboring desire for Lin Qingxue, if it were to become uncontrollable—that would mean true loss of control, not entering any special state of training.
