Beautiful CEO's Top Expert-Chapter 914 - 0: Shadow in the Night

Liu Qingcheng liked Ye Xunhuan; this was no secret. Chang Feng had known for a long time, but the relationship between the two was quite delicate.

Now that Chang Feng had done this, it was entirely to make Liu Qingcheng realize that, in Ye Xunhuan’s heart, she indeed had a place!

Ye Xunhuan could abandon the Taiji Seal for Liu Qingcheng, he could even cast aside his pride and lower his head.

In a way, what Chang Feng had done had imperceptibly brought Ye Xunhuan and Liu Qingcheng closer again. Whether they could ultimately be together, however, would depend on Liu Qingcheng herself!

Chang Feng had done all he could for her. Any further help was beyond his reach.

After all, matters of love are not something outsiders can intervene in. For Chang Feng to have done this much was already a great effort.

Chang Feng looked around the empty stone chamber, sighed lightly, and slowly turned to leave.

Now that Liu Qingcheng had been freed, if the Kunlun Sect got word of it, they would surely never let it slide. He needed to deal with the Kunlun Sect’s matters!

After bringing Liu Qingcheng out of there, Ye Xunhuan sent her directly to a hospital.

In a hospital in the capital city, Liu Qingcheng lay quietly on a hospital bed, dressed in loose patient attire, a faintly sweet smile on her pale face.

Perhaps it was because of Chang Feng’s deliberate arrangements; although Liu Qingcheng looked very much battered on the surface, her injuries were merely superficial and not severe. With some recuperation time, she would be fine.

"Why are you so foolish? Why shoulder everything on your own? Couldn’t you have just shifted all the blame onto me?" Ye Xunhuan said somewhat reproachfully.

Although he was reproaching Liu Qingcheng, his face was full of concern.

"I can handle it," Liu Qingcheng said softly. "Besides, you have many things to take care of!"

"What could I possibly have to do? I’m basically in a state of retirement now..."

"You have to take care of your wife," Liu Qingcheng said, looking at Ye Xunhuan. "Kunlun will come for you; you’ll have trouble, and she will worry."

Upon hearing Liu Qingcheng’s words, Ye Xunhuan’s heart was instantly filled with complexity. He had no idea what to say at this moment.

This woman could even think of so much for him.

"Do you know how silly you are?"

If someone else had called her silly, Liu Qingcheng would at least have been annoyed. But when Ye Xunhuan called her silly, not only was she not angry, but her face also lit up with a radiant smile.

She looked silly and innocent!

For a woman, to see the man she loves every day, to act coquettish in front of him, or to hear him affectionately calling her a fool...

Even though she might appear angry on the surface when called foolish, deep down?

She would actually feel joyful!

Liu Qingcheng, although the Dragon Lady and a queen, was still just a woman.

A very ordinary woman. She had no grand ambitions, no noble ideals. All she wanted was to see Ye Xunhuan every day.

As long as this man before her was safe, she was satisfied. And if she could hear him call her a fool every day, she would be even more content with her current life!

Isn’t all a woman asks for in this life a strong shoulder to rely on, to protect her?

The saying "willing to have one heart, till death do us part" was most fitting when applied to Liu Qingcheng.

"Why are you in the capital?"

"Not much, really. I killed Lin Changfeng, and Lin Zhennan wants to use his position to corner me. I originally thought I’d have to use that thing, but I reached an agreement with Weng Jianbo. He agreed to step in and take care of the Lin family for me..."

Ye Xunhuan briefly explained what had happened.

Although Ye Xunhuan made it sound simple, Liu Qingcheng knew there was no way it had been as easy as he described.

"Xunhuan, promise me that you’ll never use that thing in this lifetime, okay?" Liu Qingcheng looked at Ye Xunhuan with a face full of pleading. "That’s your honor, the proof of everything you’ve sacrificed for this nation. If you use it, then..."

Ye Xunhuan smiled faintly and said nothing.

That thing was indeed his honor. But if it ever had to be abandoned, Ye Xunhuan wouldn’t hesitate to let it go.

However, if that thing were used, it would mean Ye Xunhuan had completely given up everything he once had with Hidden Dragon, severing ties entirely.

Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s silence, Liu Qingcheng had already guessed his inner thoughts. She sighed lightly to herself and said no more.

"What do you plan to do about the Lin family?"

"Lin Zhennan must die!" Ye Xunhuan said with firm determination. "If he doesn’t, I won’t have peace. And I don’t want to leave any loose ends!"

It had to be said, Chang Feng understood Ye Xunhuan well. He had anticipated Ye Xunhuan’s intentions long ago and had sent someone to follow him, just in case of any accidents.

"Chang Feng just mentioned someone from Shu Mountain is looking for you. If you go to kill Lin Zhennan, I’m afraid..."

As she spoke, a hint of worry slowly surfaced on Liu Qingcheng’s face.

Liu Qingcheng, as the Dragon Lady of Hidden Dragon, had some understanding of the major ancient martial sects in Huaxia and had heard of Yuan Shu before. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

She knew he was an incredibly dangerous person.

If Ye Xunhuan were to face Yuan Shu while going after Lin Zhennan, then what would the outcome be?

"Don’t worry, it’s fine!" Ye Xunhuan comforted her softly. "I’m not going to kill him openly."

Ye Xunhuan understood Liu Qingcheng’s concern and offered her some reassurance.

"If I want to assassinate someone, even if it’s the President of the United States, it’s unlikely they’d survive," Ye Xunhuan said confidently. "Let alone someone like Lin Zhennan!"

Hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Liu Qingcheng let out a long sigh of relief.

To be honest, she had truly been afraid that Ye Xunhuan’s fiery temper would drive him to openly storm into the Lin family to deliver a blatant warning to everyone: whoever dared to mess with him, this would be their fate!

As the last ray of sunlight sank below the horizon, the earth gradually surrendered to the shroud of darkness. Lights in countless homes lit up almost simultaneously, illuminating this ancient, bustling capital city.

The night in the capital was breathtakingly beautiful, dazzling in its brilliance!

The neon lights along the streets were like playful courtesans from the red dust of history, throwing flirtatious glances at countless passersby, entrancing them until they could no longer leave.

While countless people reveled in the charm of this mysterious night, a shadow in black slipped silently like a ghost to the outskirts of the Lin family’s mansion.

Glancing at the Lin household, the man’s lips curved into a devilishly charming smile. Then, with a light push of his foot, he rose like a soaring steed, leaping onto the wall with ease!

Without hesitation, the man vaulted over the wall and landed soundlessly, entering the Lin estate.

Once inside, his figure flickered like a phantom, silently making his way toward the main residence of the Lin family!
