Ancient Eden

Chapter 95

~ 94

The only thing Mu Qing could not figure out right now was why that man with the black scar was stopped by Gang Tu when he was about to do something harmful to her.

He clearly said something at the time but she didn’t understand it.

Mu Qing brushed his hand away with some displeasure, glared at him, and then gathered her hair with her fingers.
