Chapter 371: Chapter 370: Adding Fuel to the Fire
Returning to Ziyuan Villa with the capricious Liu Ruyan, Ye Fan suddenly felt his steps beco unbearably heavy.
After all, I just picked Liu Ruyan up off the street. The key question is, will Su Qingxue even believe that? The answer is no. She absolutely won’t believe it.
Coincidentally, Su Qingxue was just returning from the office. Although she rarely managed the company anymore, she still held a fondness for her old profession and would visit whenever she had ti. At that very mont, she ran into Ye Fan and Liu Ruyan.
Her voice dripped with animosity as she asked Ye Fan, "Who is she?"
Ye Fan said helplessly, "Would you believe
if I said I found her on the side of the road?"
"Do you expect
to believe that?" A formidable aura condensed in Su Qingxue’s hands, and it looked like Ye Fan was in for a world of hurt.
Naturally, Ye Fan was on guard. After all, I’m a man who’s reached the Supre Realm too. If she wants to get tough, we can get tough together! Who’s afraid of who?
BANG!
Su Qingxue threw a punch, and Ye Fan calmly moved to block it. However, the mont he made contact, he realized how different this strike was. To put it mildly, it was terrifyingly powerful—so powerful it was absurd. He was sent flying by that single move.
Crashing heavily to the ground, Ye Fan couldn’t wrap his head around it. How has Su Qingxue, who was only at the Supre Realm before, improved so quickly? Her rate of progress is even faster than mine! Faced with his own wife this ti, Ye Fan truly felt defeated.
At this mont, Su Qingxue said, "You dare to provoke ?"
Ye Fan was about to speak, but she attacked again. Just then, Liu Ruyan sprang into action, stepping in front of Ye Fan and shouting, "Don’t you hit my husband!"
For a second, Ye Fan thought he was going to be touched by her gesture. But when Liu Ruyan shouted those words, he knew it was too late. He was really in for it now.
Liu Ruyan’s statent undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.
"Shaless! Who is your husband?" Su Qingxue raged. "I’ll hit you too!"
She imdiately lashed out with a slap. Ye Fan quickly pulled Liu Ruyan aside, dodging the attack. He hastily tried to explain, "Qingxue, it’s not what you think! There’s nothing between us! Just listen to !"
Before the words were even out of his mouth, Ye Fan was sent flying once more.
Su Qingxue stated coolly, "I don’t like flimsy excuses, and you’re no exception." She then snapped at Liu Ruyan, "Go back where you ca from! You’re not welco here!"
But Liu Ruyan countered firmly, "I go wherever my husband goes!"
Lying on the ground and playing dead, Ye Fan could only scream internally, "Oh, for goodness’ sake, lady, can you please give it a rest? Are you trying to get
killed?!"
Su Qingxue said coldly, "Are you testing my limits?"
"Hmph! Call it what you want. If you’ve got the guts, then kill !"
"You think I wouldn’t dare!" A murderous aura surged from Su Qingxue. Of course, Liu Ruyan was terrified, but she knew she couldn’t show it. If she showed any fear, she would have truly lost.
Just as Su Qingxue was about to strike, a voice rang out. "Lady Fla Witch, you mustn’t!"
Su Qingxue imdiately halted, turning toward the sound. She snapped, "Are you pleading for her?"
The newcor was none other than Gongsun Chou. The mont he saw Liu Ruyan, he was stunned. Having just returned to the Gongsun Family, he knew what had transpired there, including the matter of his descendant, Gongsun Linglong. He never imagined Liu Ruyan would look so much like her, especially since Linglong was the mber of the Gongsun Clan he doted on the most. Therefore, the mont Su Qingxue unleashed her killing intent, he spoke up. Though this might enrage her, he could no longer afford to care.
He knelt before Su Qingxue and said respectfully, "Lady Witch, I beg you to spare her life! She bears a strong resemblance to my recently deceased descendant. Therefore, I beg Your Highness to let her live. I will bear any and all punishnt in her stead."
Ye Fan also breathed a sigh of relief. He had to admit, this whole affair was turning into a real thriller.
Liu Ruyan was completely baffled. Why would Ye Fan plead for her, and why would Gongsun Chou plead for her as well? If it was Ye Fan, it would be sowhat understandable. But she and Gongsun Chou were total strangers! This was their first eting; they hadn’t even exchanged a single word.
Su Qingxue was furious. Two n were pleading for this one woman. Any woman would be jealous; otherwise, she wouldn’t have beaten Ye Fan so viciously. She declared, "Fine. Since you’re pleading for her, I’ll spare her. But she is forbidden from ever appearing in my sight again. Otherwise, I will kill her!"
"Yes, thank you, Lady Witch!" Gongsun Chou imdiately replied. Receiving Su Qingxue’s forgiveness was no small feat, and he was already celebrating internally.
Then, Su Qingxue said to Ye Fan, "And you are not to have any contact with her!"
"W-why?" Ye Fan asked.
"Do I need a reason? Is my word not final?"
Faced with Su Qingxue’s retort, Ye Fan instantly chickened out.
At this, Gongsun Chou quickly said to Liu Ruyan, "Miss, co with !"
"Husband!" Liu Ruyan cried, not wanting to leave Ye Fan.
But every ti she called out "Husband," Ye Fan’s heart jolted. All he wanted to say was, "My good lady, must you slander
like this?! Do you have any idea? I’m literally risking my life here! Please, give
a break!"
Su Qingxue shot Ye Fan a fierce glare. He quickly said to Gongsun Chou, "Take her away. Make sure she’s well accommodated!"
Gongsun Chou then led the reluctant Liu Ruyan away.
Back in the room, Ye Fan spoke sheepishly, "Qingxue!"
"Hmph!" Su Qingxue snorted coldly but gave no other response.
Ye Fan walked over and took her hand. Su Qingxue was puzzled by his actions. Then, suddenly, he leaned in and kissed her.
Su Qingxue was stunned. She hadn’t expected him to make such a move. In that mont, all other thoughts vanished, and she simply kissed him back. Ye Fan then suddenly pushed her down, moving to overpower her.
For Ye Fan, this was a golden opportunity. Now was the ti to conquer his increasingly domineering Qingxue, to subjugate her with his raw physical power. Right now, only a thin layer of clothing separated them. The situation was dangerous, but it was exactly what he had been hoping for.
Seeing that Su Qingxue offered no resistance, he began to grow bolder.
Suddenly, Su Qingxue kicked out.
THUMP!
As a crippling, dynasty-ending kick landed...
"Ugh!" Ye Fan let out a muffled grunt. His face turned ashen from the hit; the pain was excruciating.
That feeling... it was a uniquely exquisite agony.
