GOR Chapter 219: Ambush

Those words uttered by the Countess finally moved Chen Xiaolian’s heart!

“Now then, are you willing to tell me?” asked the Countess. She looked at Chen Xiaolian with an eagle like gaze.

Seeing how the Countess had bit her lips to the point of causing blood to flow out, Chen Xiaolian’s heart became moved.
