Chapter 266 - 266: Believe In Me
The girl took out a photo from her pocket and waved at a middle-aged man walking toward her.
“You… Yes, you. Come here for a moment. I have something to ask you.”
The bespectacled middle-aged man was a little confused. However, seeing that it was late, and that the other party was a child, he went over with a look of concern on his face.
“Little girl, are you lost?”
The girl shook her head and pointed at the person in the photo.
“Have you seen the guy in the photo?”
If Ye Chen was here, he would definitely realize that the young man in the photo was him!
The middle-aged man glanced at the photo and shook his head.
“I’m sorry, I’m not a local here, so you’ll have to ask someone else.”
The girl’s face looked a little disappointed, but suddenly, she sensed something and instantly disappeared, leaving the middle-aged man behind.
All he felt was a gust of wind…
He looked around, but there was not even a shadow of the girl!
The middle-aged man took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes.
“Could that have been an illusion? It looks like I’ve been working overtime too much these past few days…”
The next morning, Ye Chen had just opened his eyes and subconsciously wanted to hug Xia Ruoxue, but suddenly realized that no one was beside him.
He put on his clothes and washed up. When he went downstairs, he realized that Xia Ruoxue and Sun Yi were already having breakfast.
Sun Yi rolled her eyes at Ye Chen and said, “You sure know how to sleep. It’s almost nine o’clock. You usually wake up so early, but you slept like a pig last night.”
“Forget it. We have to make the final preparations today. Shen Haihua and 1 attach great importance to this press conference. Seeing that we’ve worked so hard, shouldn’t you, the big boss, give us a bigger year-end bonus?” Sun Yi said jokingly.
Ye Chen nodded.
“Of course. 1 can give you the entire Heavenly Justice Group.”
Sun Yi rolled her eyes at Ye Chen, grabbed her bag, and turned to leave.
“The press conference is at 11 o’clock. After this press conference is over, I should be able to rest for a few days.”
After saying that, Sun Yi disappeared from the villa, leaving Xia Ruoxue behind.
Ye Chen pulled out the chair beside Xia Ruoxue and asked, “Shouldn’t you tell me what happened now?”
“After all, yesterday, you said you were my woman.”
Xia Ruoxue blushed, but just as she was about to speak, Ye Chen’s phone vibrated.
It was a text message that read. “Mr. Ye, we received news that the Qin family is on their way back to Jiangnan Province.”
Ye Chen was stunned when he saw the message.
Then, he looked at Xia Ruoxue and said, “It’s related to the Qin family’s return, isn’t it?”
Xia Ruoxue was stunned. She did not expect Ye Chen to find out about it.
“You’re worried about your engagement with Qin Zhengyang, right?” Ye Chen continued calmly.
A few seconds later, Xia Ruoxue said, “Ye Chen, thank you for everything you did for me yesterday. I don’t regret it.”
“However. I hope that you won’t interfere in the Qin family’s matters. This time, not only has the Qin family returned, but an expert from the Kunlun Mountains has also come.”
Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed when he heard this.
Ah! So that was the reason why the Qin family was so confident. If his guess was correct, this expert from the Kunlun Mountains was very likely to be the same kind of person as him, a cultivator!
He might even be someone that was expelled from the Kunlun Mountains.
Even so, he was not afraid.
Ye Chen held Xia Ruoxue’s hand and said seriously, “Since you’re now my woman, no one in this world has the right to touch you!”
“Are you willing to believe in me?”
Xia Ruoxue’s eyes stared intently at Ye Chen. After a few seconds, she nodded and replied, “I… I’m willing.”
“Alright, stay in the villa for the next two days. Leave the rest to me.”
“Okay.”
Xia Ruoxue did not say anything. For once, she wanted to trust someone to save her from this situation. If there was anyone she could believe in, it was Ye Chen.
After all, he had never stopped performing miracles ever since he resurfaced in River City.
Ye Chen stood up and went straight to the balcony on the second floor. The first call he made was to Rakshasa.
“Guard the villa 24/7!”
“Yes, Master!”
Ye Chen then made a second call.
“The Qin family is coming back. Ye Lingtian, how strong are you and how strong is the Dark Hall?”
“There are no worries on our end, Hall Master!”
“Alright.”
Jordan wanted to make a third call, but after thinking for a long time, he gave up. This last phone number should not be used for the time being.
He did not know if the person the old man was talking about was still alive.
However, when he left the Kunlun Mountains, the old man had only said to him, “When you are outside, remember that you are my disciple. No one has the right to touch you. If they don’t have eyes and you can’t deal with them, call this number. He will help you settle everything.”
“If the call doesn’t go through, it means that the person is dead and you have no fate with him.”
“Remember, this call can only be made once. Don’t use it unless it’s a matter of life and death.”
Ye Chen put his phone back in his pocket and closed his eyes, holding the black stone in his hand.
The Samsara Graveyard appeared in front of him, and the third tombstone shone brighter and brighter. However, it still had not reached the point where it could be fully activated.
The Dragonslayer Sword appeared in Ye Chen’s hand.
Looking at the sky, his cold killing intent swept out, as he said indifferently, “An expert from the Kunlun Mountains? 1 hope you won’t disappoint me!”
Jiangnan Province’s Airport.
A private jet slowly made its descent and landed.
At this moment, the airport was quite crowded, which was unusual. Furthermore, the majority of the crowd here exuded strong martial auras.
These people had long received the news that the Qin family had returned, and were also aware that the Qin family had successfully brought back a top-notch expert from the Kunlun Mountains this time!
