"Moreover, Wang Qiya definitely didn't call for help, because by the ti they entered the private room, I had already jamd the signal!" Ye Chong added.
"Is that so?" Ye Dexian was startled. With Ye Chong's explanation, he was beginning to think that everything that happened tonight was just a series of coincidences. But he still felt that the sudden surge in Ye Chong's cultivation speed was too strange.
This kid, Ye Chong, has been the unluckiest second child for so many years. He breaks his Dantian and suddenly soars? Isn't that too odd?
At this thought, a flash of insight sparkled in Ye Dexian's eyes. "Right, you still can't explain why Xu Ke ca, can you, Chong'er?"
"Moreover, he clearly could have crippled you, but he oddly chose to save you. Doesn't that prove sothing is wrong?" Ye Dexian asked bluntly. Although this was his grandson, when discussing such life-and-death matters, Ye Dexian couldn't be bothered with euphemisms.
Just monts ago, Ye Dexian had been too anxious to save his grandson to sort out the sequence of events. But now that he had cald down, he found that Xu Ke's actions could only be described as bizarre.
At this mont, however, Ye Chong smiled slyly. "Grandpa, saving was beneficial to him. He wants to cooperate with against Ye Fan."
"His appearance here tonight is also related to his plan to deal with Ye Fan."
"What? You're going to cooperate with him to deal with your elder brother?!" Ye Dexian's face changed dramatically.
"Correct," Ye Chong nodded slowly. "Xu Ke ca here tonight to find a man nad Yuk Dalong, who has evidence of Ye Fan instructing the Li Family to have the dia besiege Xu Ke. He originally ca to the Golden K Bar to get that evidence from Yuk Dalong."
"However, Xu Ke discovered that I had Yuk Dalong install a bug in Ye Fan's private room. He knew I had been secretly opposing Ye Fan all along, so he found , intending to cooperate. You can find proof of all of this on the surveillance footage."
"The evidence of you opposing Ye Fan has also fallen into Xu Ke's hands?!" Ye Dexian was utterly shocked. He knew Ye Chong had always wanted to move against Ye Fan; after all, he himself had been involved. But what he feared most was that Xu Ke now had evidence against Ye Chong.
Hearing this, Ye Chong rely smiled slightly. "Don't worry, Grandpa Jiu. To show his sincerity in cooperating, Xu Ke has already deleted the incriminating evidence he got from Yuk Dalong."
"Besides, the only evidence he has about eavesdropping on Ye Fan is so chat logs, which don't constitute substantial proof."
Ye Dexian finally felt sowhat relieved. Then, it suddenly dawned on him. "So, you're saying that while you and Xu Ke appeared to be at daggers drawn in public, even confronting each other aggressively in front of the bar as if you were irreconcilable enemies..."
"In reality, you've already started working together in secret?"
Ye Chong nodded with a smile and added, "Also, Grandpa Jiu, if you're still worried, you can have soone monitor my body periodically. If there really is an issue with my cultivation, it can be dealt with in ti."
"Yes, yes, yes," Ye Dexian nodded repeatedly. "We absolutely have to find a doctor. I'm not at ease."
"Still, Xu Ke's sches run incredibly deep. And you... I was almost fooled into thinking you'd be a cripple for the rest of your life." A look of imnse relief spread across Ye Dexian's aged face. At the entrance of the bar, he had truly believed that Ye Chong was going to beco a complete invalid.
"I don't think Xu Ke dared to truly cripple from the start. He probably just wanted to make a decisive-looking move, making it seem like he'd destroyed my Dantian. In reality, he was just bluffing to make my n hesitate for fear of making things worse. In the end, he would offer to repair my Dantian, turning our conflict into a peaceful resolution. After all, since we both have things to fear from each other, we'll naturally each take a step back!" A warm smile slowly appeared on Ye Chong's face.
"I see!" Ye Dexian nodded.
Ye Chong looked out the window, the corners of his mouth curling into a scornful, triumphant smile.
Xu Ke, oh Xu Ke! You certainly looked handso and decisive with that punch in the corridor. But in the end, didn't you obediently repair my Dantian? You wanted to cooperate with against Ye Fan, and in doing so, you helped achieve this breakthrough cultivation speed, born from destruction...
Xu Ke, you probably think I'm still useless, that your Innate Middle Stage cultivation is enough to control completely. But you have no idea. I have been reborn through destruction. After my Dantian was shattered, it was remade. I will reach the Innate Realm far faster than you. When that ti cos, you and Ye Fan... you will both die!
Just then, Ye Dexian's phone suddenly rang.
RING, RING, RING...
"It's your older brother," Ye Dexian's tone changed.
Ye Chong withdrew his gaze. "Go ahead and answer, Grandpa Jiu. I fully expected my big brother to call and ask what happened." Their conflict with Xu Ke could be hidden from outsiders, but not from family. After all, the mobilization of their n was a dead giveaway.
But as he said this, a chilling malice flashed in Ye Chong's eyes. He hated it! Why is it always Ye Fan who asks questions and investigates when sothing happens in the family? Why doesn't Father entrust these matters to ? Instead, I'm left to manage inconsequential entertainnt businesses like bars and KTVs. Am I not worthy of shouldering responsibility in this lifeti?
"What should I say then?" Ye Dexian's face changed. Now that Ye Chong and Xu Ke had established a cooperative relationship, his confidence was shaken. If this ca out because of tonight's events, wouldn't their plans be ruined before they even began?
Ye Chong smiled faintly and slowly said, "You just say..."
Ye Dexian's eyes imdiately widened...
「...」
When Xu Ke arrived at his front door, he saw the chair and cutting board placed outside. Clearly, they were an apology from Qian Hong.
Xu Ke opened the door and brought the items inside. The room was dark, the curtains drawn tight. After leaving the Golden K Bar, Jiang Yi obviously wouldn't have co back here; he would have hidden himself away long ago. So, the room was empty.
However, Xu Ke sensed sothing was wrong. His expression changed slightly.
A strange scent perated the air. It was a woman's perfu.
Xu Ke turned on the light, and his pupils imdiately shrank.
A woman in a red dress that accentuated her exquisite figure sat on the sofa, gazing at him with sultry eyes.
Xu Ke knew this woman very well. It was Yang Qing.
He dropped the stool and cutting board he was holding.
BANG!
"What are you doing here?" Xu Ke said slowly.
Wearing delicate makeup, Yang Qing stood up, bit her red lip, and cooed, "I ca to see you, Xu Ke! Not happy to see ?"
"How did you get in?" Xu Ke asked coolly, a hint of murderous intent already forming in his eyes.
How did Yang Qing get in?!
