446: Chapter 446: The Warmth of Ho 446: Chapter 446: The Warmth of Ho “Ji Qiushui!”
Ji Qiushui gazed at Ye Chenfeng, faintly uttering the three words.
When Ye Chenfeng heard the na “Ji Qiushui,” his body visibly trembled.
The three words seed to penetrate his soul, instantly stirring up endless mories.
Ye Chenfeng’s eyes slightly narrowed, a glimr of sharpness shooting from the slits.
“Ji Qiushui?
Never heard of her!” Ye Chenfeng shook his head, pretending to be ignorant.
“Ye Chenfeng, you can pretend not to know, but do you plan to hide like a coward forever?
What’s destined to co will co; so things you must face!” Ji Qiushui crossed her arms, arrogantly and disdainfully sizing Ye Chenfeng up.
Ye Chenfeng’s lips tugged bitterly.
He couldn’t help but ask, “What do you an?”
“Don’t you want to know who saved you?” Ji Qiushui countered.
Ye Chenfeng scratched his slightly ssy hair and laughed, “So, it was you who saved ?”
Ji Qiushui glanced around, then coldly said, “Is there anyone else here?”
Ye Chenfeng chuckled.
“You’re really full of yourself.
I didn’t ask you to save !
Well, even if you did, don’t expect to thank you!”
“You…” Qiao Xiyue and Leng Ying gasped in anger.
But Ji Qiushui ignored Ye Chenfeng’s sarcasm, just watching him with a cold smile.
“My grandfather asked to take you back to Yanjing.” Ji Qiushui said blandly.
Ye Chenfeng looked puzzled.
“Back to Yanjing for what?
I don’t even know you!”
“To return to Yanjing and marry .” Ji Qiushui stated plainly, her face as serene as still water, without the slightest ripple of emotion.
It was as if she regarded marriage as a task to be completed at her superior’s command.
“Sorry, I won’t go with you.” Ye Chenfeng refused flatly.
Qiao Xiyue and Leng Ying were stunned.
Soone actually refused the esteed Ji Family’s young lady from the Capital City.
In their view, marrying the Ji Family’s young lady was a blessing cultivated over several lifetis—sothing many would fight over.
Yet, Ji Qiushui personally stated her intent to marry in Yanjing, and Ye Chenfeng should have been eager to agree.
How often does such good fortune drop from the sky?
But Ye Chenfeng flatly refused.
Who would cut Ye Chenfeng to pieces if this gets out?
“Why?” Ji Qiushui asked.
“First, I already have a wife.
Second, I think you’re crazy and desperate for a man.
Just grabbing a random stranger to marry?” Ye Chenfeng explained briefly, then turned to leave.
But Qiao Xiyue and Leng Ying blocked his way.
“You’re not leaving!”
“Ye Chenfeng, I know you’re pretending not to know .
But can pretending to be clueless free you from being a mber of the Ye Family?
Have you forgotten that Ye Family blood runs through your veins?
That’s an unchangeable fact!” Ji Qiushui suddenly said.
Ye Chenfeng, who was about to take a step, halted, turned around, and with a cold face said, “Fine, I admit I was a waste thrown out by the Ye Family back then, a joke discarded by you, Ji Qiushui.
But now you want back to marry?
To humiliate again?”
Ji Qiushui snorted coldly.
“Ye Chenfeng, let tell you, I don’t want any dealings with you either.
Taking you back to marry is entirely my grandfather’s directive.
I don’t even understand his intentions!”
“Haha, you’re very honest!” Ye Chenfeng sneered.
“Ye Chenfeng, the only path before you is to follow back to Yanjing!” Ji Qiushui said in an indisputable tone.
Ye Chenfeng waved his finger.
“Don’t even think about it!”
“Then don’t bla for taking action myself!” Ji Qiushui’s aura erupted, a bone-chilling coldness of a midwinter month spreading out.
Much stronger than Gu Shaoqing!
Or rather, they weren’t even in the sa league!
This was Ye Chenfeng’s assessnt of Ji Qiushui.
Ye Chenfeng looked disdainful.
“In fact, there’s another path, and that’s stepping over your body!”
“With just you?” To Ji Qiushui, dealing with Ye Chenfeng was as easy as crushing an ant.
Of course, this was Ji Qiushui’s misconception.
The earlier incident where Ye Chenfeng coughed up blood was due to a mix of factors.
Ye Chenfeng’s true strength wasn’t that weak.
“You can try!”
Ye Chenfeng sneered, about to crush through with his formidable strength when a car appeared ahead.
Ye Chenfeng’s aura quickly dissipated.
He said to Ji Qiushui, “Alright, my wife’s here.
I’m not playing with you anymore!”
Leaving those words, Ye Chenfeng ran towards the incoming car.
Ji Qiushui stood there stunned, murmuring to herself, “He has a wife?”
Qiao Xiyue and Leng Ying’s eyes were glued to Ye Chenfeng’s back; they were utterly curious.
Could Ye Chenfeng really have a wife?
“Ye Chenfeng?
Big Brother!
Little Ye!” The voices from the car belonged to none other than Chu Renkuang and Chu Qingxue.
“I knew you’d co to pick up!” Ye Chenfeng jumped into the car without another word.
Chu Qingfei curiously asked, “Big Brother, who are those three won?”
Ye Chenfeng shook his head.
“Don’t know them.
Let’s get out of here; this place is unlucky!”
“Alright!”
The car shot off like an arrow, leaving Ji Qiushui and her companions staring after it wistfully.
“General, what now?
Ye Chenfeng really doesn’t recognize kindness.” Qiao Xiyue couldn’t help asking.
Ji Qiushui’s gaze remained fixed on the spot where the car disappeared, eyes deep in thought.
“We’ll stay in Jiangnan for now.
Find out the identities of the won around Ye Chenfeng!” Ji Qiushui said coldly.
Qiao Xiyue nodded.
“General, no problem.
I will certainly uncover Ye Chenfeng’s wife’s identity!”
But the next second, Qiao Xiyue felt a piercing gaze.
Looking up, she found Ji Qiushui staring at her.
Realizing her slip of the tongue, Qiao Xiyue quickly corrected herself.
“Rest assured, General.
I will promptly investigate the won around Ye Chenfeng!”
…
“Son-in-law, jump over the fire basin first!
Getting out of prison is inauspicious.
Then, take a bath and change into new clothes—I’ve prepared everything!” Back at the villa, Aunt Qin stopped Ye Chenfeng.
She had even placed a fire basin in front of him.
Around them, Chu Qingxue and her sister, Chu Renkuang, and even Uncle Fu, were all smiling at him with joy.
The warmth of ho!
After just seeing Ji Qiushui, Ye Chenfeng’s mood had soured a lot, even dredging up so unpleasant past mories.
But right after, Aunt Qin and the others gave him the warmth of ho, and a surge of warmth flooded into Ye Chenfeng’s heart.
His frozen heart seed to thaw slightly.
He looked at the Chu Family with a new sense of gratitude in his eyes.
“Thank you, Aunt Qin!”
Ye Chenfeng followed Aunt Qin’s instructions, jumping over the fire basin and taking a bath in a new outfit.
