"Finally...., I take it you enjoyed your rest?" she said, a faint smirk tugging at her lips.
"..!!!!" Lin Mu’s instincts took over. Without thinking, he lunged forward, his fist aimed at her face. But to his horror, his punch went straight through her as though she weren’t there. Her figure flickered and vanished.

His body shivered when he suddenly heard a soft laughter which echoed through the hallway. Lin Mu suddenly felt a gaze on his back and whipped around to see the woman standing a few feet away, completely unscathed.
"Interesting reflexes." she remarked, her smirk widening.
Lin Mu’s fists clenched. "Just who are you? And why did you kidnap me...." Lin Mu asked with a wary look.
" Oh my, have you forgotten me already?." The woman took a step forward, her hands casually clasped behind her back. "fufufu, I guess it was a bit rude of me to take you without your consent." The lady chuckled while covering her lips with her fair pale hand.
