  Late at night at Jin garden:

  Si Ye Han stared at the girl tucked in bed. The gentleness in his eyes was tossed about by the wind and rain.

  The scene at the bar kept replaying in his mind……

  The girl was forced to her limit and fought, not knowing she was exhausted.

  That numb, cold little face……

  She became so calm the moment she saw him……

  It was as if a sharp claw was gripping the softest part of his heart; Si Ye Han felt a suffocating pain……

  At the same time, in another villa in Imperial City:

  Si Xia sat in front of the computer screen in a daze.

  One set of images after another appeared on the screen.

  Gun and fresh flowers……

  Strawberry cake and almond cake……

  Smoke from chimneys spiraling upwards and a galaxy of stars……

  The images repeated themselves over and over again on the screen.

  Suddenly, a special reminder rang out.

  The teenager absent-mindedly opened his email and read the news as usual without high expectations.

  There was a short clip attached in the email. The video was quite shakey. Through the dim lighting and messy crowd, the girl moved so swiftly that only a vague figure of her could be seen. Her moves were accurate and each attack was meant to kill. Finally, she sent Liu Ying flying with a kick to his chest……

  The second he opened the clip, Si Xia stood up instantly and his expression changed. His light gray eyes lit up as he murmured in disbelief, "Jie jie [1]……"……

  A few days later, in the morning.

  The rays of sun seeped through the gaps in the leaves and sprinkled a golden brilliance in the room. The gentle breeze ruffled the tree leaves lightly, leading to some rustling.

  A girl quietly laid on the soft and snow-white bedding. Her clean little face was innocent and flawless without a single speck of dust on it and she was as gentle as a delicate flower stalk in a greenhouse, unable to withstand any wind or rain.

  Ye Wanwan was awoken by the pain in her head.

  Her hangover made her feel like there was an ax wedged between her head, chopping it in half. The pain was excruciating.

  Damn it……

  What happened?

  Why am I back in Jin garden?

  I remember that last night……

  I went to the bar to look for Jiang Yan Ran and after that, I seemed to have bumped into a group of troublemakers……

  It felt like those people forced quite a bit of liquor down my throat……

  Then…… then I can't really remember what happened after that……

  Right, where's Si Ye Han?

  Ye Wanwan realized there was nobody by her side, so she climbed out of bed while rubbing her painful temples.

  The moment she sat up and prepared to get up, she nearly fell head first on the ground.

  F***!

  What's going on?

  Her entire body felt as if it had been running the entire night around Imperial City. Her muscles were aching so badly and her legs didn't even feel like they belonged to her. Simply lifting her knee caused her to grit her teeth in agony.

  Damn it……

  What did I do last night? How did I get beaten up so badly?

  Ye Wanwan was full of suspicions. She needed to use the edge of the bed to support herself and inch her way out of the room.

  With great difficulty, Ye Wanwan finally reached the door and slowly stretched to push the door open.

  When she pushed the door open, there happened to be two guards conversing right outside the door.

  Thus, Ye Wanwan quickly asked the two of them for Si Ye Han's whereabouts, "Er…… may I ask, where's……"

  She merely opened her mouth when the two guards jolted upon seeing her as if they were looking at a monster. Their expressions of horror were extreme and even the hairs on their heads were about to stand upright. After loudly wailing "ow," the two of them ran away and disappeared……

  Uh, where's…… your master……

  Ye Wanwan didn't have a chance to complete her sentence. She froze with her arm in midair and the corners of her mouth twitched.

  What's the meaning of this?

  Am I that scary?

  Chapter 518: Who took the chance to hit me while I wasn't paying attention?

  "Hey…… don't…… don't leave……"

  Ye Wanwan shouted in their direction, annoyed. The entire hallway was empty and nobody replied to her at all. The two guards already disappeared.

  If she wasn't mistaken, those two people hadn't even taken the stairs - they simply jumped out the window into the yard.

  Was that really necessary?

  What's going on here?

  Ye Wanwan stood in a daze for a long time.

  She had no other options and could only wait until her body recovered slightly before going downstairs……

  Currently, the living room was dead silent.

  Si Ye Han sat on the sofa with a frosty expression. Xu Yi was next to him with a grave face. Eleven and his men stood solemnly in two straight rows, and in the middle were Liu Ying and Song Jing.

  Song Jing lowered his head and said, ashamed and regretful, "I didn't handle the situation well and wasn't able to protect Miss Ye. I'm willing to accept any punishment!"

  Liu Ying said with a heavy expression, "This has nothing to do with Song Jing. I stopped him from taking action……"

  On the sofa, Si Ye Han's cold eyes swept across everyone. He remained silent.

  The appalling silence stagnated the air in the room, causing one to almost choke.

  At this moment, a pair of light footsteps came from behind.

  The footsteps came down the stairs. "Ta ta ta"……

  Ye Wanwan finally managed to climb down the staircase then she stretched her back and stood a few steps away from everyone, panting and speaking weakly, "Um…… may I interrupt……"

  "Swish——"

  In a split second, Xu Yi, Eleven, Song Jing and all the guards in the living room retreated swiftly, leaving a large empty space with only Ye Wanwan standing there by herself.

  Every pair of eyes was filled with fear as they stared at her and kept their guards up. Everyone looked as if there was a great enemy approaching.

  "Uh……" Not again?

  Ye Wanwan's face turned black instantly.

  What's wrong with these people?

  Why are all of them giving me this look?

  Song Jing was aware his hatred for her was second only to his hatred for Liu Ying and he struggled to swallow his spit. His calves started trembling again and his chest injury seemed to hurt even more as well.

  Liu Ying's face turned white at the same time……

  Ye Wanwan glanced strangely at everybody who had retreated far away from her.

  Song Jing was badly battered - his arm was in a sling around his neck and he looked like a mistreated mistress by the way he looked at her; half of Eleven's face was swollen and he was wearing a foot splint; Xu Yi's forehead was bandaged, and Liu Ying was the worst - he looked like a mummy with his entire body wrapped in bandages. Almost everyone had injuries.

  Ye Wanwan knitted her brows. "Eh? What happened to all of you?"

  She then muttered,"Did you guys get hurt while trying to save me from that lecher?"

  Everyone's expression: "……"

  Seeing the weird looks they gave her, that didn't seem to be the case, but nobody told her what happened exactly. Ye Wanwan grew even more suspicious as she muttered and walked towards Si Ye Han.

  Ye Wanwan rubbed her arm pitifully and complained: "Ah-Jiu, why am I aching everywhere? Did they take the chance to hit me last night while I wasn't paying attention?"

  Eleven, Xu Yi, Song Jing, Liu Ying and all the guards were speechless: "……"

  Madam, are you kidding me right now?

  We…… hit you?

  This is ridiculous - we've never been more offended in our lives!
