Wang Yujiao’s face darkened as she glanced at the retreating figure of Pu Minsung before turning with a nacing stare at Jiang Chen’s back and muttered coldly,
"Jiang Chen, it’s all because of you, all your fault! And you, Ye Jingyi, since you don’t treat as a sister, then don’t bla for what happens!"
Stomping her foot fiercely, Wang Yujiao got into her car and drove towards the newly constructed Yichen Hotel of the Yi Chen conglorate.
"Who are you?" Arriving next to Ye Jingyi’s vehicle, Jiang Chen turned his head to look at the unfriendly woman who had followed them and asked in a deep voice, his eyes shooting out a cold murderous intent.
The woman’s expression changed as she bowed slightly, "Hello Boss, I am Miss Ye’s personal assistant and bodyguard, my na is Leng Ye."
"Jiang Chen, Ling’er has saved before, and it was I who asked her to be my assistant. She is very skilled!" Ye Jingyi, detecting the hostility from Jiang Chen toward Leng Ye, quickly spoke up.
"Saved you?" Jiang Chen glanced at Ye Jingyi, then turned back to Leng Ye with slightly narrowed eyes and said softly, "If that’s the case, you should co back with us."
"Yes," Leng Ye replied softly.
Jinhai Wellness Avenue, Hua Yuan Villa District.
This villa district, developed by the Yi Chen conglorate, houses Villa Number One, the new ho of Ye Jingyi in this area—as well as Jiang Chen’s ho.
Squeak!
The Maserati Quattroporte drove into the villa’s courtyard and parked in the open-air parking space.
In the villa courtyard, Yan Hu, who was leading a patrol, strode towards them.
Click!
The car door opened, Leng Ye stepped out from the driver’s seat, and Jiang Chen and Ye Jingyi got out from the back seat.
"Young Master? You’ve returned!" Yan Hu exclaid with surprise upon seeing Jiang Chen and quickly approached him in a few long strides.
Jiang Chen glared fiercely at Yan Hu and said sternly, "Co with Leng Ye."
Yan Hu was taken aback, and his heart trembled. The expression on Jiang Chen’s face ant he was angry, but Yan Hu was completely baffled, not knowing what he had done wrong.
Ye Jingyi looked at Jiang Chen, her brows furrowed slightly as she keenly sensed that sothing was off with his emotions.
Stepping forward, she took Jiang Chen’s hand and asked with concern, "What’s wrong?"
"Let’s talk inside," Jiang Chen said softly.
Leng Ye stepped forward to open the door, and the four of them entered the villa and arrived in the living room.
Swish!
Just as Ye Jingyi was about to walk toward the sofa, a blood-red knife shadow flashed, startling her. As she turned her head, she saw Jiang Chen holding the Blood Saber with its tip pointed directly at Leng Ye.
Yan Hu’s expression changed as he quickly figured out the situation, stepping to the side to block Leng Ye’s path from behind.
Startled, Ye Jingyi opened her mouth as if to shout, but then she swallowed back the words that almost escaped. She believed Jiang Chen wouldn’t act rashly; if he had drawn his knife, there must be a reason!
"Mr. Jiang, what is the aning of this?" Leng Ye frowned slightly, looking at Jiang Chen with slight dissatisfaction.
Jiang Chen responded indifferently, "Who are you?"
"I am Leng Ye, I am..."
"Stop feeding these excuses. What I’m asking is about your other identities!"
Jiang Chen spoke coldly, "A Semi Innate Grand Master, running to beco an assistant and bodyguard for an ordinary person like Jing Yi? Do you really think I would believe there’s no ulterior motive?"
"What?!" Yan Hu was shocked, involuntarily letting out a cry of alarm. Now he understood why Jiang Chen was angry. To have a Semi Innate Grand Master show up next to Mrs. Young Master without any detection, if she had malicious intent towards Mrs. Young Master...
At this thought, Yan Hu broke out in a cold sweat!
At the sa ti, Yan Hu also felt a hint of doubt in his heart. He was an Innate Grand Master, yet he didn’t sense that Leng Ye had the strength of a Semi Innate. What was going on?
Ye Jingyi’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed. She had heard from Fu Ling’er and others about the levels of Martial Artists, knew that a Semi Innate Grand Master was considered a great expert, and could not help feeling a flicker of doubt in her heart, scrutinizing Leng Ye closely.
"I cannot tell you my identity, but please believe , I will not harm Miss Ye, and I will protect her safety with my life!" Leng Ye looked openly and earnestly at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly as he turned to look at Ye Jingyi, "How long has she been by your side?"
"Over half a month now!" Ye Jingyi responded softly.
Jiang Chen paused, then slowly lowered the Blood Saber.
Over half a month, if Leng Ye really wanted to harm Ye Jingyi, or wanted to use her for sothing, it would have already been done. But not only did she not harm Ye Jingyi, she indeed served as an assistant and bodyguard. If there was any suspicious behavior, Ye Jingyi and Yan Hu wouldn’t have failed to notice anything. This indeed made Jiang Chen feel a profound sense of confusion.
What was the Dark Night Queen trying to do? Why send soone to Jing Yi’s side for no apparent reason?
Jiang Chen’s brows were deeply furrowed as he stared straight at Leng Ye, a hint of deep thought in his eyes.
Back when he was fighting with Mu Si and others, Jiang Chen had been wary of the Dark Night Queen and even extended his Inner Qi to probe the Dark Night Queen’s strength but only glimpsed sothing vague. However, he did rember the fluctuations of the Dark Night Queen’s energy, and later on, he speculated that it must be so kind of Cultivation Technique capable of concealing one’s strength.
From Leng Ye, Jiang Chen detected the sa Cultivation Technique fluctuations as from the Dark Night Queen, and such techniques were extrely rare!
"Give a reason to believe you!" Unable to grasp the purpose behind the Dark Night Queen’s actions, Jiang Chen stared at Leng Ye with furrowed brows.
Leng Ye hesitated for a mont, then spoke softly, "I’m sorry, I can’t explain it to you, but truly, I have no ill will. I was sent to protect Miss Ye closely."
"Protect ? Who sent you?" Ye Jingyi looked at Leng Ye, puzzled.
Leng Ye shook her head gently, "I’m sorry, Miss Ye, I can’t tell you."
"I know who sent you." Jiang Chen spoke softly, "The energy fluctuations of the Cultivation Technique hiding your strength, I’ve seen it on soone before. What I don’t understand is why she would send soone to protect Jing Yi?"
"A Cultivation Technique hiding strength?!" Yan Hu exclaid, looking at Leng Ye with surprise.
Jiang Chen glanced at Yan Hu, "It’s a Cultivation Technique that conceals one’s strength. If it wasn’t for knowing this was the reason you didn’t detect her strength, I would seriously take you to task for letting a powerful stranger stay by Jing Yi’s side without knowing their background."
Yan Hu shrank his neck and lowered his head in sha. It was indeed his negligence.
Jiang Chen had brought him to Jinhai to ensure Ye Jingyi’s safety. However, after Leng Ye arrived, Ye Jingyi found it inconvenient to have a man like Yan Hu around and asked him to stay at the villa. Now, with such an oversight, he was indeed to bla!
"Since Mr. Jiang already knows who sent , then please believe , I really have no ill intent," Leng Ye spoke softly.
Jiang Chen looked at Leng Ye with a wry smile, "Knowing who sent you ans I should trust you? I don’t have such a close relationship with her, allowing her to send a Semi Innate to protect my wife."
Upon hearing these words, Leng Ye imdiately beca anxious.
