Chapter 253: Chapter 0253: Keep a Close Watch on Them
"Make yourself clear, what exactly do you mean?" Ye Xunhuan called out urgently.
He now felt this Taoist was very mysterious, definitely not the kind you’d compare with those sitting under a bridge on a small stool with a street stall!
"The Emperor’s countenance can be observed and can be discerned, but must not be overly discussed!" The Taoist said while moving forward, "If I can speak, I speak; if I cannot, then not a word will be uttered!"
"You cannot keep me, nor can you stop me, don’t waste your effort!"
As if he’d already guessed that Ye Xunhuan would try to forcibly keep him, the Taoist dismissed Ye Xunhuan’s thoughts straight away, "Your wife is not bad, a woman of wealth and status. Take good care of her and don’t fail your mother’s expectations!"
"The Tai Chi seal, the Yin-Yang jade, the Marquis’s puzzle, hidden within..." The Taoist chanted as he walked on!
Ye Xunhuan, who originally wanted to chase after the Taoist to keep him by force, became immediately transfixed upon hearing the other’s chanting.
Just who was this Taoist?
He seemed to know everything!
And so, Ye Xunhuan watched as the Taoist slowly disappeared from his sight.
After a long while, Qiu Ruoxi looked at Ye Xunhuan and asked, "Ye Xunhuan, what did he mean by that, what is this Tai Chi seal?"
Ye Xunhuan did not speak, but instead turned his gaze onto the crescent-shaped black jade stone Qiu Ruoxi wore around her neck and said with a smile, "It’s nothing!"
"Just consider it nonsense!"
"But I feel like everything he said was true!" Qiu Ruoxi said earnestly!
"He also said I am the Ziwei star, the Emperor’s countenance, do you believe that?"
"Doesn’t that make me the Empress?"
Ye Xunhuan’s mouth twitched slightly, "The backup one!"
"Ye Xunhuan, I’m going to kill you!" Qiu Ruoxi pretended to pounce towards Ye Xunhuan.
Seeing this, Ye Xunhuan quickly dodged to one side, and then said to Qiu Ruoxi, "Don’t hit me, huh? If you lay a hand on me again, believe it or not, I’ll leave you here alone!"
"You wouldn’t dare!"
Though she said this, Qiu Ruoxi really stopped.
Ye Xunhuan was known for his unpredictability and certainly wasn’t one to spare the fairer sex; he might indeed dare to leave her behind, especially since he had the car keys!
"That’s more like it!" Seeing Qiu Ruoxi come to a halt, Ye Xunhuan showed a triumphant smile, "Men will love you if you’re obedient. Otherwise, with your looks, who would love you?"
"You..."
Seeing Qiu Ruoxi about to get angry, Ye Xunhuan hurried forward, "Let’s hurry back, it’s about to be the end of the workday. Don’t you have a lot of work to process?"
Hearing Ye Xunhuan say that, Qiu Ruoxi glared at him fiercely, then got into the car!
Immediately after, Ye Xunhuan started the car and drove away from the place.
"Wife, if I were an emperor, doesn’t that mean I could have a three-palace six-courtyard seventy-two concubines arrangement?" Ye Xunhuan murmured, "And then make you the Empress of the West Palace!"
"Keep dreaming!" Qiu Ruoxi gave Ye Xunhuan a dismissive glance, "You, an emperor? If you were the emperor, and the country didn’t fall, that would be a sin—a source of suffering for all the people!"
Three black lines involuntarily appeared on Ye Xunhuan’s forehead.
"Ever heard of King Zhou?"
"The one from ’Investiture of the Gods’?"
"Yes!" Qiu Ruoxi said emphatically, "If you were an emperor, you’d be no different from him!"
"That’s okay too!" Ye Xunhuan said excitedly, "At least I could play with a peerless beauty like Su Daji before dying..."
While speaking, a look of yearning appeared on Ye Xunhuan’s face, "I wonder if it’s very comfortable..."
Qiu Ruoxi felt speechless inside, not knowing quite what to say to Ye Xunhuan.
This guy is the type who would rather die on top of a woman than not enjoy himself!
"Wife, how about we role-play tonight? I’ll be King Zhou, and you’ll be Daji. Let’s try it..."
"Go to hell!"
......
After returning to Huang Tu Group, it was already 3 p.m.; there were only two and a half hours left until the end of the workday.
Qiu Ruoxi went back to her office, while Ye Xunhuan returned to his, or rather, his and Tang Yurou’s office.
In the office, Tang Yurou was seriously reviewing the documents in her hands. Upon seeing Ye Xunhuan come back, her face immediately broke into a sweet smile: "You’re back!"
Earlier, Ye Xunhuan had sent Tang Yurou a message telling her he had something to do and would not come to pick her up!
"Little Rou Rou, I didn’t pick you up this morning. Did you miss me?"
"No!" Tang Yurou shook her head directly.
"Really? Didn’t see each other for one night and you didn’t miss me? And I missed you so much, I even dreamed about you!" Ye Xunhuan said, somewhat disappointed.
"What did you dream about me?" Tang Yurou asked curiously.
"Guess?"
"How would I know!"
"I dreamed that we were on a bed, your legs spread apart..." Ye Xunhuan looked at Tang Yurou with a smirk, his gaze becoming playful at that moment.
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Tang Yurou’s pretty face turned red all of a sudden!
"The two of us were on the bed, doing..."
"Stop talking, I don’t want to hear it!" Tang Yurou quickly interrupted Ye Xunhuan with a blush on her face.
"Little Rou Rou, why is your face red?" Ye Xunhuan laughed and said, "Tell me, did your thoughts drift elsewhere?"
Saying that, Ye Xunhuan let out a light sigh: "Little Rou Rou, I really didn’t expect that you could be so dirty too!"
"We were lying on the bed, your legs spread apart, and you were sitting on top of me, giving me a back massage. Your mind went there!"
"Ah!"
Tang Yurou’s pretty face got redder and redder, like a ripe peach ready to drip juice at the slightest pinch.
She indeed had misunderstood, but she couldn’t be blamed, considering how Ye Xunhuan’s words were easily misconstrued.
"You...you’re bullying me..."
"Alright, alright, I’ll stop teasing you, not teasing you anymore!" Ye Xunhuan said cheerfully!
Just as Ye Xunhuan finished speaking, his phone in his pocket began to ring.
Upon hearing the ringtone, Ye Xunhuan immediately took out his phone and answered the call: "Xiao Jiu, what do you need me for?"
Tang Yurou knew about the relationship between Ye Xunhuan and Xiao Jiu, so Ye Xunhuan didn’t avoid discussing it with her.
"Brother Huan, is it convenient for you to talk right now?" Xiao Jiu’s tone was filled with an unprecedented seriousness.
Ye Xunhuan glanced at Tang Yurou, then walked to the side: "Tell me, what happened?"
Xiao Jiu rarely spoke to Ye Xunhuan with such gravity, unless there was a serious matter!
"Brother Huan, Sato Youichi came today, and he brought some people with him." Xiao Jiu said gravely: "Do you want me to find a time to take care of all of them..."
"Don’t act rashly, you are no match for Sato Youichi!" Ye Xunhuan said very seriously: "Don’t worry about them for now, just keep a close eye on them!"
Ye Xunhuan had just been told by Long Zu Bodhi that Sato Youichi would be coming; he didn’t expect him to arrive today.
