Chapter 1709: Begin the Operation
Chapter 1709: Begin the Operation
The Mud Bodhisattva still has a bit of anger!Ye Xiaoying really couldn’t stand it; her prideful fiery temper seemed inexplicable to Ye Xuan, as if she was always on edge!
In a fit of anger, she wanted to explain to Ye Xuan why she had become this way, why she was so sensitive.
But.
When the words were at the tip of her tongue, Ye Xiaoying still couldn’t say them in the end.
Their four eyes met.
The atmosphere felt a bit strange.
Silence lingered for a while.
Ye Xuan’s sword-like brows moved slightly, and he smiled, asking, "Aren’t you going to tell me, why you’ve become so inexplicable? Why did you suddenly stop speaking?"
"I..."
Ye Xiaoying’s pretty face flushed red, her pink fists clenched tightly, her white teeth bit hard.
Ye Xuan frowned, speaking in a firm voice, "Speak!"
Ye Xiaoying’s delicate body trembled, suddenly becoming much clearer-headed.
"There’s nothing to say; I’m just inexplicable. I’m a woman, and being inexplicable is a normal thing."
Ye Xiaoying sighed lightly, "You all continue to shop; I’m a bit tired. I’ll go home and rest for a while. Let’s get in touch tonight."
After speaking, Ye Xiaoying turned and left, lingering only for a moment.
Ye Xuan didn’t attempt to stop her.
In no time, Ye Xiaoying’s stunning figure disappeared into the bustling crowd of the mall.
Ye Xuan retracted his gaze, his previously furrowed brow relaxed, yet the trace of helplessness and heaviness between his brows lingered for a long time.
A fragrant breeze filled the air.
Chiba Sakurako came to Ye Xuan’s side, glanced in the direction where Ye Xiaoying disappeared, and softly said, "She likes you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan was not surprised, yet he did not agree.
Indeed, he harbored such suspicions.
Especially today, Ye Xiaoying’s behavior was too unusual, so unusual compared to before, it’s like two different people!
But Ye Xuan didn’t dare to confirm.
Because Ye Xiaoying never showed any intentions towards him, he never even detected any hints; combining it with her reaction to that incident, Ye Xuan was even more unsure.
If she had affections, then why did she reject him without hesitation that night?
Therefore, Ye Xuan would ask Ye Xiaoying earlier; he wanted to know the reasons for everything, he needed a clear answer.
Sadly, Ye Xiaoying did not speak...
"Hoo—"
Ye Xuan held the cold railing of the mall, sighed with a bitter smile, "Perhaps she does have some thoughts, but considering that I have so many women around me, she retreated."
Indeed, not everyone is like them who can abandon everything for him.
Ye Xuan didn’t expect everyone to do so; he didn’t have that right.
After all, everyone has their own pride.
It is precisely because of this, in matters of affection, Ye Xuan appears passive, because he doesn’t want his initiative to deprive others of their freedom.
Especially Ye Xiaoying.
Chiba Sakurako followed beside Ye Xuan, pursing her lips, her beautiful eyes flashed as she asked, "Do you... do you like her?"
Ye Xuan grinned, smiled, and remained silent.
If he didn’t like her, then how could he, back then when he was powerless, foolishly fight the class bully who mocked Ye Xiaoying for having a runny nose after school, ending up with a bruised face?
If he didn’t like her, then how could he still remember her after all these years?
No one knows how important she is to Ye Xuan.
Only Ye Xuan knows, when he was mocked by everyone as a child picking up trash, only she invited him to have candy, did homework together, went out to play on weekends, and even secretly picked up trash with him behind her big brother’s back when he was still alive.
The past scenes seem like yesterday!
That messy little girl with a runny nose was so pure and beautiful.
Fate plays tricks on people.
Ye Xuan thought he would never see her again and didn’t hope to, but who would’ve thought they finally reconnected.
At the moment of reunion, Ye Xuan seemed apprehensive and indifferent towards Ye Xiaoying, yet no one could know how happy he was inside?
Everyone has a piece of pure land in their heart.
That little girl with a runny nose is Ye Xuan’s pure land.
It is precisely because of this special existence that Ye Xuan is particularly careful about his relationship with Ye Xiaoying, not wanting to cross boundaries.
Because no one knows, once the line is crossed, how it will develop.
Why do so many people, who obviously deeply love someone, not dare to pursue them? It’s simply because they care too much, so they’re afraid of losing.
Yet fate is unpredictable, even though Ye Xuan kept trying, he ultimately couldn’t avoid crossing the line in the end.
So that now, the relationship between the two becomes so bizarre.
"Forget it, let’s take one step at a time."
Pulling back his inner thoughts, Ye Xuan shook his head, not wanting to think further, smiling as he said, "Let’s go, we’ll continue shopping. Today, I must buy you a few outfits that I like!"
As he spoke, Ye Xuan had already stepped forward, as if nothing had happened, carefree and easy-going, carefree.
Chiba Sakurako stood at her spot, watching Ye Xuan’s back, unable to recover herself for a long time.
In truth, this man cares about relationships more than anyone.
Yet because of his deep affection, he often goes to great lengths to disguise it, because he doesn’t want others to know the truth; otherwise, enemies would target his affections.
To protect those he cares about, he silently endures loneliness, with everyone thinking he is carefree, yet he remains indifferent.
In this world, how many men are like him?
Those nestled in his heart are truly blessed.
...
The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it is close to dusk!
Having had an early dinner, Ye Xuan leaned on the lounge chair on the balcony, gazing at the slowly setting crimson sun, surprisingly serene.
And beside Ye Xuan stood Chi Lian and Chiba Sakurako, each equally mesmerizing.
A gentle wind swept by, the atmosphere silent.
As if the tranquility before a storm.
Everyone was waiting.
Waiting for the setting sun to vanish, waiting for the horn of war to be blown.
Time quietly moved forward.
Finally, the crimson sunset disappeared beyond the horizon completely; only the fiery afterglow on the horizon awaited a bit more time to fade.
Ye Xuan’s phone rang, the caller was Ye Lang.
He answered.
On the other end, Ye Lang said gravely, "The people from the Holy Mansion have set off, heading towards the coast."
"Alright, start the operation!"
Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes and issued orders.
Chi Lian pulled out her phone and called Iron Tower Bear Mountain and others, "Black Emperor commands to start the operation immediately!"
Chi Lian hung up the call, continuously fiddling with the silver-white flying knife in her hand, its cold light seemed to pierce through everything.
Chiba Sakurako tightened the two katanas at her waist, in her beautiful eyes, resentment surged.
A murderous aura rose towards the sky!
Ye Xuan’s lips curled with a mocking, bloodthirsty arc, slowly and unhurriedly standing up, then grabbed the Dragon Blood Sword placed beside him for a while.
At that moment, the sky and earth changed!
