Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 436 Zhuge Feng’s Secret 1(2)_1
Ye Qiu spoke coldly. Ye Zhiqiu’s body was flung out, landing outside with a THUD. "Throw anyone unrelated more than two hundred meters away from here," Ye Qiu commanded the empty air coldly. The air rippled softly, and then shouts could be heard before quiet returned to the villa once again.
"She’s awake." Ye Qiu’s voice was gentle as he waved his hands, and Shangguan You’s body appeared before his eyes. He stretched out his large hand, gently pulled her into his embrace, and lightly rubbed his chin against her hair.
"Is that man your uncle?" Shangguan You let Ye Qiu hold her, thinking about what she had just heard Ye Zhiqiu say. She felt inexplicably uncomfortable. Ye Qiu’s temperament was so awful; she truly hadn’t expected it. Apart from her, there were still people continuously scheming against him. Thinking about this, the corner of Shangguan You’s mouth twitched involuntarily. It seems I need to understand Ye Qiu better, and moreover, I need to be aware of his circumstances so that I don’t foolishly let someone steal my man.
"Yes, his name is Ye Zhiqiu, and he has been imprisoned here for about twenty years," Ye Qiu said softly. Seeing her expression, the corner of his mouth curved up slightly. The girl is jealous.
"Why is he imprisoned here?"
"He cultivated a special technique, designed to absorb other people’s Spiritual Energy for his own use. In Hidden World Village, he even killed many people, so the four major families joined hands to imprison him here."
"Who is An Ya?"
"Heh," Ye Qiu chuckled lightly. I figured the girl would definitely ask about An Ya. He tenderly kissed her forehead. His pleasing voice then rang out, "An Ya is Ye Zhiqiu’s daughter. I have no interest in such a woman. I wouldn’t even give her a second glance, so don’t worry. In this world, aside from you, no other woman can catch my eye. Even if there were women more beautiful than you, I wouldn’t even look at them." Ye Qiu laughed softly, pleased as he looked at Shangguan You.
"Who knows," Shangguan You said, a hint of sourness in her voice. I just heard Ye Zhiqiu say An Ya had taken care of Ye Qiu for a period of time. That ’period of time’ was actually several years; it wasn’t impossible that feelings could have deepened over time.
"Girl, don’t you trust me?" Ye Qiu’s gaze on Shangguan You began to heat up. He licked his lips lightly, kissed her lips gently, and then quickly pulled away. He was waiting for her answer. If the girl dared to utter a single word of disbelief, he would lower his head and kiss her until she believed him, just to see if she would still dare to distrust him.
Seeing Ye Qiu’s dangerous maneuver, Shangguan You, however slow-witted, understood his intention. She resisted by placing her hands on his chest, quickly speaking, the taste of his kiss still on her lips.
"Remember this, from now on, you, Ye Qiu, are my, Shangguan You’s, man! So, you can’t be flirting around behind my back. If I find out... HMPH!"
"Don’t worry, aside from you, I have no other women. The Blood Jade Bracelet on your wrist is proof." Ye Qiu sounded somewhat disappointed, having missed an opportunity to steal a tender moment. However, hearing Shangguan You’s declaration, so reminiscent of his own dominance, he couldn’t help but feel delighted.
Actually, the Blood Jade Bracelet had another function: he could sense her emotions, and she, his. This, Ye Qiu did not say aloud. From the moment the Purple Jade Bracelet transformed into the Blood Jade Bracelet, the two of them had been inextricably linked, never to be parted.
The air rippled softly, and Shangguan You’s brows furrowed. She could clearly sense at least five auras in the surrounding air.
"Girl, this time it was a blessing in disguise for you. Next time, if you’re this careless again, I definitely won’t let you off the hook," Ye Qiu said with a light smile, his own smile deepening involuntarily as he watched Shangguan You pout.
"Come out," Ye Qiu called out softly to the empty air. At his command, six figures swiftly appeared before him. They knelt on one knee, respectfully before Ye Qiu.
Shangguan You’s eyes flashed with surprise. I really didn’t expect this. I sensed five auras, but six people actually emerged! These people are even more formidable than Second Young Master Ye and Ye Zhiqiu. Could it be that Ye Zhiqiu fears Ye Qiu so much?
"Young Master," the six people greeted Ye Qiu respectfully.
"Mm," Ye Qiu acknowledged, surveying the six expressionless faces before turning his attention back to Shangguan You. "They are my Hidden Guards. They are different from Ye Qiu and Ye Ying; they exist solely for me." Ye Qiu explained briefly, gently smoothing her furrowed brow, not elaborating further. With a wave of his hand, the six figures once again vanished soundlessly.
"Have you found the whereabouts of Zhuge Feng and Li Wanying?" Ye Qiu’s deep voice echoed in the air. The fact that the girl could sense the auras of five people indicated that she was now qualified and fully capable of standing by his side, and he had no intention of keeping things from her anymore.
"Young Master, Zhuge Feng has been recalled to his main family," a cold voice, devoid of any emotion and even colder than Second Young Master Ye’s, replied.
"Girl, let’s go. We’ll pay a visit to the Zhuge Family," Ye Qiu said with a light chuckle, putting an arm around Shangguan You’s shoulder, ignoring her somewhat startled gaze.
"Are you really going to help me rescue Zhuge Feng?"
"Have you forgotten? Your people are my people too. It’s Zhuge Feng’s honor that he caught your eye. Besides, you came here for Zhuge Feng. And there are some things I think you should see for yourself," Ye Qiu said with a smile.
"Yes, thank you."
"Girl, do we even need to say ’thank you’ to each other?" Ye Qiu’s brow arched slightly, his voice tinged with displeasure. If there weren’t urgent matters at hand, he definitely wouldn’t have let her little mouth off easy.
"You’re right, no need. Let’s go. I wonder how Zhuge Feng is doing now?" Shangguan You quickly changed the subject. Ye Qiu’s current demeanor made her feel inexplicably flustered. In Shangguan You’s mind, Ye Qiu’s image once again successfully transformed into that of a lecherous wolf.
