Chapter 1135 Women's Privilege


"Mind Capturing Technique?" Ye Xunhuan chuckled softly, "You're thinking too simply, and do you really believe the Mind Capturing Technique can control someone for forty-eight hours?"

"Isn't it..."

"If it could really control someone for forty-eight hours, then its value would be much greater than the Tai Chi Seal." Ye Xunhuan said casually, "Do yourself a favor and think a bit, or when you're free, go check out the Secret Library at Yinlong. What's inside could really benefit you!"

As he spoke, Ye Xunhuan seemed to realize something and added, "But it seems like you're not qualified to step into that place!"

"You... how do you know so much..." Wu Mei's face once again showed a look of surprise.

The fact that Yinlong has a Secret Library was something Wu Mei only recently learned, and according to what she knew, not everyone in Yinlong was aware of it.

Yet Ye Xunhuan knew about this place.

Isn't he a marshal?

How does he know so much about Yinlong?

Ye Xunhuan let out a light laugh, "You'll find out someday. Alright, I'm off!"

With those words, Ye Xunhuan turned around to leave once again.

Watching Ye Xunhuan's back, Wu Mei's lips moved slightly, as if wanting to say something, but the words stuck in her throat and she struggled not to swallow them back down, a look of conflict appearing on her face.

But when she saw Ye Xunhuan reach the villa's entrance, Wu Mei took a deep breath, bit her lip, as if making some significant resolve, and called out to Ye Xunhuan, "Why did you come to save me..."

Upon hearing Wu Mei's words, Ye Xunhuan's steps halted slightly, he slowly turned his head, smiled at Wu Mei, and then once more walked towards the outside.

Ye Xunhuan left, but Wu Mei was left stunned.

Did he just smile at me?

Though Ye Xunhuan had smiled at her before, this time the smile felt a bit strange to Wu Mei.

It was an indescribably strange feeling.

After leaving, Ye Xunhuan directly went home.

Since the incident happened right at the Tingxiangshexie Villa, Ye Xunhuan returned home swiftly.

When he got home, Mrs. Wang and Wang Zilin, the mother and son, had already gone to rest. The spacious living room was not only empty but also dark.

Upon entering the villa, Ye Xunhuan didn't turn on the light, but proceeded directly forward. To him, the dark living room was as familiar as daylight, and he easily reached the staircase.

In no time, Ye Xunhuan was upstairs.

The second floor of the villa, Qiu Ruoxi's bedroom, was still lit.

Qiu Ruoxi was sitting on the bed, looking uneasy and slightly anxious.

She was worried and anxious for Ye Xunhuan.

Even though Qiu Ruoxi knew Ye Xunhuan was impressive and quite a fighter, after all, two fists are hard to fight against four hands, especially with the enemy in the shadows while Ye Xunhuan was in the open.

The situation was extremely unfavorable for Ye Xunhuan, let alone when the opponent even had Wu Mei as a hostage.

Could he handle it?

Suddenly, someone pushed open the bedroom door from outside.

Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Qiu Ruoxi's heart tightened, and she instinctively looked towards the door.

The next moment, Qiu Ruoxi saw Ye Xunhuan.

Upon seeing Ye Xunhuan, Qiu Ruoxi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and the heart that was hanging in her throat finally settled back into her chest.

This subtle change in Qiu Ruoxi was fully captured by Ye Xunhuan, and his heart was filled with gratitude.

This woman started to worry about him, started to care about him, they were increasingly resembling a normal couple, aside from just being in a nominal marriage.

There were arguments, silent treatments, and concern...

"Honey, why aren't you asleep yet?" Ye Xunhuan said affectionately to Qiu Ruoxi, "In the future, if I go out, don't wait up for me..."

"Don't flatter yourself, who's waiting for you."

Although Qiu Ruoxi indeed was waiting for Ye Xunhuan, all women deny their true feelings to some extent, especially strong-willed women like Qiu Ruoxi.

If she ever showed any other kind of intention, this guy would certainly get cocky, maybe even tease her endlessly!

"Aren't you waiting for me?" Ye Xunhuan scanned Qiu Ruoxi with an amused expression.

Ye Xunhuan wasn't foolish, and given what he knew about Qiu Ruoxi, he knew she had a sharp tongue but a soft heart, and she rarely showed her true feelings unless absolutely necessary.

To say Qiu Ruoxi was like a hedgehog, wrapping herself tightly, would be no exaggeration!

Being under Ye Xunhuan's intense gaze made Qiu Ruoxi feel a bit uneasy, but she still forced herself to say, "Can't I have insomnia?"

Seeing Qiu Ruoxi biting her lip, Ye Xunhuan smiled.

Ye Xunhuan felt that this was the real Qiu Ruoxi.

It's a pity that she rarely acted this way—only when she was extremely annoyed by him or when she lacked confidence.

"Oh, so it's insomnia..."

Ye Xunhuan deliberately extended the pronunciation of the word insomnia.

Seeing Ye Xunhuan's smug expression, Qiu Ruoxi's heart was filled with displeasure, just like a little girl in love throwing a fit. She grabbed a pillow from the bed and flung it at Ye Xunhuan, "You bastard, I was worried about you, so what..."

Catching the pillow thrown by Qiu Ruoxi, Ye Xunhuan walked over to her.

Ye Xunhuan was at Qiu Ruoxi's side in no time, and without teasing her further, he said seriously, "Honey, I'm back now, you don't have to worry, you can sleep peacefully."

Qiu Ruoxi snorted coldly, "Even if you didn't come back, I could still sleep well!"

Just as she finished speaking, not giving Ye Xunhuan a chance to respond, Qiu Ruoxi asked again, "How is Wu Mei?"

"Is there anything your husband, Qiu Ruoxi, can't handle?"

Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan's words, a smile appeared on Qiu Ruoxi's face. This guy knew how to flatter, nice!

But in the next moment, as if realizing something, she stared at Ye Xunhuan, "Ye Xunhuan, if you want to be narcissistic, don't involve me!"

This bastard, complimenting himself while dragging her into it!

Ye Xunhuan chuckled, "Honey, you know it's getting late, we should get some rest..."

Qiu Ruoxi checked the time, nodded, "Yeah, it's time to rest, you should go back..."

Ye Xunhuan was taken aback, "Honey, I'm... I'm sleeping outside?"

"What do you think?"

"Why?"

"You left me at home to rescue another woman, do you think I'd still let you sleep with me?"

"You... I..." Ye Xunhuan felt frustrated, "Wasn't it you who asked me to go?"

"Stop with the nonsense, get out!"

"You're being unreasonable..."

"It's a woman's prerogative..."
