Don't think I can't bear to part with you!
In a woodshed in the Skyspan Trading Company's residence, Ye Zichen, who'd just escaped the immortal-binding chains, obediently allowed himself to be bound tightly again. His face was covered in bruises and bruises, and he looked particularly wretched.
The woman in red grabbed one end of the rope, dragged Ye Zichen over to the woodshed, and kicked him inside.
"Just stay in there and wait."
"Is this how you treat your benefactor?"
Ye Zichen fell to the ground and cursed angrily. This woman was absolutely an ingrate. He'd helped her out so much, yet she wasn't even the slightest bit grateful. Instead, she sneered at her benefactor and beat him up.
No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't hold back his anger. All he could do was try to maintain his composure.
Little did he know, if it weren't for the fact that he'd returned the ring, she might have beaten him half to death long ago.
"Hah, it seems you haven't had enough?"
From the moment they'd met, Ye Zichen had said flirtatious things. On the way to the carriage, he'd even put his hand on her …..
She'd never had a man put his hand on her before.
Especially since he'd said those things on purpose just now, causing Elder Che and the other attendants to misunderstand. Based on that alone, it wouldn't be unreasonable for the woman in red to sentence Ye Zichen to death. Sending him to the woodshed was already an act of mercy.
When he saw that the woman was about to raise her hand again, Ye Zichen hurriedly gave in.
"Spare me, heroine!"
When she saw that Ye Zichen seemed to be bowing to her, she lowered her hand, rolled her eyes at him, and turned to leave.
"Heroine, please wait."
When he saw that she was about to leave, Ye Zichen hurriedly called out to her.
"What do you want now?"
Whenever she saw Ye Zichen, she was infuriated. She reluctantly turned her head away. Her delicate brows knit together, and her delicate cheeks were frosty. From the look of things, it seemed she'd attack him at the slightest provocation.
When he sensed her gaze, Ye Zichen shrunk back and laughed dryly, then pointed at his apprentice with his chin.
"My disciple is a member of Raging Flame City's Wu family. The clan competition is in a few days, so it's pretty important to him. Heroine, please understand that the two of us are not comrades of that group of black-clothed men. I know that I have made things difficult for heroine along the way, but my disciple has always been quite well-behaved. How about this, let my disciple return to the clan, and I'll stay here? "
"Master, disciple will not leave."
As soon as Ye Zichen finished speaking, Wu Di, who was in the woodshed with him, spoke up.
"What are you doing here? Are you an idiot? I've painstakingly trained you to become what you are now. Isn't it all so that you can ruthlessly slap those fellows' faces in the clan's internal competition? Have you forgotten your obsession? Don't you want to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat in the Clan Grand Competition? "
Ye Zichen scolded Wu Di until he was completely speechless. Only then did he smile apologetically at the woman in red.
"Heroine, what do you think?"
These two really weren't the black-clothed men's comrades. In truth, the woman in red was the one who'd captured them wrongly. Even if she kept them here, she wouldn't be able to get any information out of them. Besides, she only held a grudge against Ye Zichen. She wouldn't go so far as to direct her anger at Wu Di.
"Servants!"
He shouted towards the outside of the woodshed. Not long after, an attendant from the caravan appeared in front of the woodshed.
"Young Miss."
"Unseal Young Master Wu's immortal-binding chains and spiritual sea. Send him back to Raging Flame City's Wu Family."
"Understood."
The attendant gestured for Wu Di to leave the woodshed. Wu Di stared worriedly at Ye Zichen, who sat in the woodshed. He didn't budge for a long time.
"Let's go. I absolutely won't be in any danger. Hurry back to the clan. You absolutely can't delay the clan's competition. "
When he saw Ye Zichen's warm smile, Wu Di gnashed his teeth, bowed deeply, and left the woodshed.
After Wu Di left, the woman in red crossed her arms and shook her head. "I never would have guessed such a well-mannered young man was the apprentice of someone like you."
Ye Zichen couldn't help but chuckle. "What's wrong with me? Can't you sense my overwhelming righteous aura?"
As he spoke, Ye Zichen intentionally puffed out his chest.
"I haven't seen your overwhelming righteous aura, but I've experienced your ruffian aura. Just stay here and enjoy yourself. I hope you'll still be alive the next time I come. "
As he left the woodshed, Ye Zichen called out once more.
"Wait a moment ….."
"What is it now?"
The woman in red turned around, and as she did so, her two large mountains rested on her arms. Ye Zichen's words were forced back by the beautiful scenery. He gulped repeatedly.
When she sensed his gaze, the woman in red's face instantly turned ashen. A heavy pressure instantly erupted from her body.
"It looks like you don't need your eyes anymore!"
"Hey, hey, hey …. Don't, don't, don't …. Why are you so hot-tempered? Do you think you'll lose a single piece of meat if I look at you? Besides, I'm a normal man. Why wouldn't I look when there's a benefit? "
Ye Zichen's tone was matter-of-fact, but it only made the woman's fury rise.
"Shut up!"
Her tone was extremely threatening, and the ground beneath her feet began to crack under the release of her spiritual power.
This woman really had a temper. Everyone said she was vicious and evil, but she had the ability to back it up. How could she still have such a temper?
Ye Zichen pursed his lips in disdain, then said helplessly, "Fine, fine, don't get angry.
If you get angry, your hormones will go haywire and you'll go through menopause early …. If this woman wants to maintain her youthful looks, it's best if she stays calm. Little Sister, you're a Leo, aren't you? You seem a bit domineering. "
"I …. I can't be bothered with you!"
The woman in red stomped her foot in anger. She gnashed her teeth and turned to leave.
"Wait a moment …."
"Don't think I really can't bear to kill you!"
She'd just stepped out of the woodshed when she came to a stop. Then, she took a vicious step towards the woodshed. Her aura instantly surged to its peak.
She really was about to explode from anger. She never would've guessed she'd run into this scoundrel.
Ye Zichen, however, paid no heed to her spiritual pressure. His eyes flashed a subtle smile, and his expression was slightly bashful.
"You've said what's on your mind, haven't you? You can't bear to …. Haha …. Let me catch you. Like I said, when you looked at me, it was like your eyes were filled with love at first sight. You wanted to hide it, but now you can't hide it anymore …. "
His playful tone was about to drive the red-clothed woman crazy. However, just as her anger was about to reach its peak, she stopped.
"You can't pay attention to someone like her. She's just trying to take advantage of you. Just ignore her. Xue Honghong, you have to hold it in. You absolutely have to hold it in. This guy's mouth is a bit cheap, but he's not a bad person. You have to suppress the fire in your heart. You can't really do anything to him. "
Xue Honghong was the woman in red's real name. She'd almost lost her head in anger. In her heart, she repeatedly told herself to endure, to hold it in ….
But ….
"Hey, little sister …. I still don't know your name."
"I don't."
She no longer needed to see Ye Zichen's annoying face. All she had to do was hear him speak, and it was like adding fuel to the fire. It burned hotter and hotter.
She had to get out of here.
Xue Honghong didn't hesitate. She turned and left the woodshed. She'd already decided that no matter how much Ye Zichen called out to her, she wouldn't look back.
But ….
"Little sister, don't hold back your feelings. I'll leave the door open for you tonight …."
