The Bodyguard King's CEO Wife-Chapter 1233: Dejection

"Just wait." Ji Qian’s face showed a trace of anger. It was clear that she was not just deliberately provoking; she was genuinely furious. At the same time, she was secretly worried. What was happening with Ye Shikai now? No matter how malicious Chen Yuxin was, she was still Ye Shikai’s wife. She shouldn’t harm him, right? The Chen family residence was as solid as a fortress. Even if the elders of the Ji family and the White Mist Army came, along with the four generals of the Netherworld Palace, forcing their way in was uncertain. Besides, Ji Qian now represented the Ji family.

On Chen Yuxin’s side, as soon as she entered the door, she kicked a chair to the ground in anger. Although she had just exchanged one move with Ji Qian, the energy fluctuation caused her dantian to surge with heat. Fortunately, Chen Ruoya stopped her in time. Otherwise, if the fight continued, the fetus in her womb would not have survived.

"Family Head, even if action is needed, it should not be taken by you." Chen Ruoya advised from the side. "Since Miss Ji has come, why not spread the news to the Ji family? The Ji family does not wish to conflict with us now. Miss Ji must have come in secret from Ji Tao."

"You’re right." Once Chen Yuxin calmed down, she quickly formed a strategy. Ji Tao was someone who cared about the bigger picture. Currently, the Ji family and the Chen family maintained a friendly relationship with many significant collaborations. Even if Ji Qian was Ji Tao’s cherished daughter, he would never offend the Chen family over this matter. Furthermore, in terms of reason, Ye Shikai and Chen Yuxin were married, and Ji Qian had no reason to interfere in the matter. If this got out, it would lead to gossip.

"Then I will go handle it immediately."

"Ji Qian, you brought this on yourself." After Chen Ruoya left, Chen Yuxin sat alone on the sofa, murmuring to the wall with a sharp, murderous look in her eyes.

The Chen family, secret chamber.

"Open for me!" Ye Shikai struggled to free himself from the iron chains on his wrists. However, how could mere flesh and blood break iron chains? After tugging for some time, the chains remained unscathed, but the wounds on his wrists, which were about to scab, started to bleed again. He winced from the pain.

"Soul Destroyer, Soul Destroyer, can you hear me?" Ye Shikai lay on the bed as if he resigned to his fate, trying to make one last "struggle."

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

His mind was a barren wasteland, and the voice was like a stone sinking into the sea. No one responded to him.

"Damn it."

Ye Shikai lay weakly on the bed, sighing endlessly.

Bang. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Suddenly, the door to the room opened slowly. Ye Shikai didn’t rush to look. Since this was the Chen family’s secret chamber, who else could come but Chen Yuxin?

"Kai, how do you feel?" Chen Yuxin walked in gently, holding a cup of water, bringing it to his lips. Ye Shikai didn’t refuse and raised his head to drink it all.

"What happened outside?" Ye Shikai stared at Chen Yuxin’s face and suddenly blurted out.

"How did you know?" Chen Yuxin panicked in her heart. She never expected Ye Shikai to say that. This secret chamber was completely soundproof and even blocked inner strength detection. How could Ye Shikai know?

"What, did I guess right?" Ye Shikai suddenly laughed, "Your face is flushed; you must have just used inner strength. There are faint tear stains on your face; you must have been angry just now."

"It’s my brothers, isn’t it?" Ye Shikai seemed to know everything. However, it seemed that neither side had taken action. Soul Destroyer wasn’t foolish and wouldn’t act rashly.

"Kai, you are indeed excellent. I didn’t expect you to give the Netherworld King Order to Nightmare. I thought you would keep it with you." Chen Yuxin lay beside Ye Shikai, wrapping her hands around his waist, whispering in his ear.

"Why, what do you want with the Netherworld King Order?" Ye Shikai’s heart trembled. He did give the Netherworld King Order to Nightmare, but only he and Nightmare knew about it. How did Chen Yuxin know? Could it be... Nightmare came personally?

But even if Nightmare came personally, how could she reveal the Netherworld King Order?

"Xin, what do you intend to do?" Ye Shikai suddenly felt a sense of foreboding.

"Kai, you can’t manage the Netherworld Palace now, but it’s your career, so of course, I have to find someone to help manage it for you." Chen Yuxin had an "of course" attitude, "But your subordinates don’t follow orders and even... want to fight me."

"You... you, the Netherworld Palace was conquered by me and them. Why do you get to manage it?" Ye Shikai had roughly guessed what was happening outside. It must be that Soul Destroyer and Demoness had brought people here. Perhaps Nightmare showed the Netherworld King Order because of this. After all, Chen Yuxin considered herself the "Netherworld Empress," and without the Netherworld King Order, the entire Netherworld Palace could only heed her commands.

"Kai, I’m your wife. If you can’t handle it now, of course, it should be me to manage." Chen Yuxin nodded, then her expression turned disgusted, "And that Ji Qian, getting involved in our affairs, really shameless, hmph."

"What, Qian is here too?" Ye Shikai exclaimed in excitement upon hearing this. At the same time, he also felt troubled. If Ji Qian and Chen Yuxin met, wouldn’t that lead to a fight?

"Kai, calling her that makes me jealous." Chen Yuxin pouted, displeased.

"Xin, let me go. I’ll go and clarify things with them."

"This... Kai, are you trying to trick me?" Chen Yuxin was doubtful. It was evident that even if she justified her actions, she couldn’t convince herself. After all, if Chen Yuxin were truly confident, why would she keep Ye Shikai in the secret chamber?

"Xin, I’m your husband. You can’t keep me tied up here forever." Ye Shikai’s face was grim. He continued to struggle against the iron chains. The pain from the wound contacting the metal was unbearable. Ye Shikai gritted his teeth, and his face turned pale.

"Kai, don’t do this." Chen Yuxin quickly grabbed his wrists, her eyes full of pity, "Alright, I’ll help you remove the chains. Look, the wound has reopened." Chen Yuxin channeled her inner strength, effortlessly taking off the chains and using alcohol from the table to clean his wounds.

"Alright, I’ll go out and talk to them. If I’m right, they’re probably still at the door." Ye Shikai sighed helplessly. At this point, if it wasn’t stopped in time, it would be difficult to control the situation.

"Kai, I’ll go out with you." Chen Yuxin affectionately held his arm. Ye Shikai reached out to touch the dantian area on his abdomen. The wound had begun to scab, but the dantian had already been destroyed, and the inner strength was lost. Thinking of this made him feel despondent again.
