Capítulo 1091: Chapter 1091: Seeing the Light of Day Again
“Kai, let’s leave first.” Chen Yuxin pulled Ye Shikai’s hand, and the two walked towards the lounge in the back, which had direct access to the stage. According to the schedule, the wedding banquet would start at noon. Ye Shikai gestured for Chen Yuxin to go to the lounge first, planning to stroll around the venue for a while before going there.
“Be careful.” Chen Yuxin hesitated for a mont but nodded in agreent, casting a glance to signal Jeddon to stay close and protect him.
Ye Shikai walked around the venue, with many people recognizing him along the way. Whenever he passed by, he often heard so “not-so-harmonious” sounds, just like at tis when one feels people whispering behind their back, privately comnting. But what’s most frightening is not what others speak of in the shadows, but rather the imagination of the person involved, which can be darker than the gossip. It’s like a self-conscious person walking down the street, even if the passersby are just laughing among themselves, will assu they’re being mocked. The most terrifying thing originates from within the human heart. Although Ye Shikai wasn’t such a person, he could clearly sense the discussions around him, which made him sowhat uncomfortable.
“Sir, should I make these people quiet?” Jeddon, also sensing sothing amiss, whispered with a somber expression in Ye Shikai’s ear. With the power of the Netherworld Palace and the Chen family, teaching these people a “lesson” in Yanjing would be a breeze.
“No need, people talk. Just ignore them.” Ye Shikai waved his hand, signaling everyone to keep moving forward.
“Mr. Ye, congratulations.” Amidst the crowd, a dignified voice ca, and turning around, it was a group of people led by Ji Tao.
“Mr. Ji.” Ye Shikai bowed, acknowledging. The Ji family was a renowned family in Yanjing and had definitely received Chen Yuxin’s invitation, undoubtedly extending it to many others. Sure enough, Ji Feng and Ji Yu were also present, along with Chen Ligong and other elders.
“Mr. Ye, you sure have luck with won.” Ji Yu, feeling displeased, spat out sarcasm. After all, back when he married Su Qingyu, Ji Yu wished he could stab soone. Yet this ti, he was marrying another woman. If Ji Yu was angry because of Ji Qian the first ti, now she held nothing but utter contempt.
“Scumbag.” Ji Yu grumbled displeasedly.
“Yu, enough.” Ji Tao coldly scolded, causing Ji Yu to retreat a few steps, still secretly cursing Ye Shikai.
Glancing around, Ye Shikai noticed Ji Feng standing quietly by. They had a conflict in the past yet he refrained from making snide remarks, likely due to Ji Tao’s presence.
“Please don’t mind, Mr. Ye.”
“Of course, Mr. Ji, please co in.” Ye Shikai smiled faintly, a waiter guiding the crowd inside. Although Ye Shikai hadn’t invited personal friends this ti, the venue was several tis larger than his wedding with Su Qingyu. Yet these people…had no connection to him.
“Ye Shikai, just wait. One day, I’ll get back at you.” Ji Yu sneaked out, confronting Ye Shikai, eyes fixed on him with gritted teeth.
“You…” Jeddon, angered, wanted to step forward to teach Ji Yu a lesson.
“Hold on.” Ye Shikai stopped Jeddon, approaching Ji Yu. “If you want revenge, I have no objections.”
“What… what did you say?” Ji Yu was taken aback, not expecting such a reaction from Ye Shikai.
“I said nothing, this is all my fault.” Ye Shikai stated before leaving, leaving Ji Yu confused.
“Hmph, do you think acting pitiful will stop from getting back at you?”
………………
Yanjing.
“It’s been a whole night, why hasn’t anyone co to rescue ?” Worm anxiously surveyed the room. Today was Ye Shikai’s wedding day, yet he and Zi Yun were detained here.
“Hurry, co.” Worm paced back and forth, unable to see what was happening outside. Otherwise…
Thud, thud.
At this mont, several muffled noises ca from the corridor outside. Worm quickly pressed against the door, listening intently for any sounds.
“Strange, I clearly heard sothing outside…”
Bang, suddenly, the door barged open, catching Worm off guard, knocking him to the ground with pain.
“Damn, my nose.”
Two won in black tight-fitting suits barged in, resembling… female agents. Seeing Worm on the ground, one of them drew a dagger from her waist.
“Hey, hey, are you here to kill to silence ?” Worm, terrified, retreated, as the woman stepped forward, slashing the handcuffs on his wrist into two pieces.
“You scared ; I could have unlocked this myself.” Worm exhaled in relief.
“Who… are you really? Are you Miss Luo’s subordinates?” Worm cautiously asked. He had sent his plea for help to Luo Shiqi the day before.
Having thought it over for a long while, he realized many of Ye Shikai’s phone contacts had been blocked before his capture. Jeddon now controlled the Netherworld Palace, and any ssage sent there would likely be intercepted by Jeddon. The Moon God was too close to the Netherworld Palace, making it unwise, so he chose Luo Shiqi—one, she was the queen of Yanjing’s Underworld, and Chen Yuxin couldn’t easily touch her; two, with her relationship with Ye Shikai, she would not sit idly by; and lastly, she had capable personnel with many action team mbers.
“Sort of, Miss Luo sent us.” One woman coolly replied, “Let’s go.”
“Wait, I have a companion here. Where is she? I have to save her.” Worm anxiously inquired.
“Relax, the little girl is already safe.”
“That’s great, let’s hurry up and leave.” Worm quickly ran out. There were several guards in the corridor, all knocked out by the two won.
“The car is in the parking lot, let’s hurry.” The three reached a parking lot, and one woman quickly stepped forward, opening the door of a van.
“Get in quickly.”
“Oh, okay.” Worm got in, finding Zi Yun sitting inside, who excitedly hugged him.
“Worm, you’re okay, that’s such a relief.” Zi Yun was so emotional she nearly cried. Indeed, if Chen Ruoya had carried out their lethal plans, they’d truly be dead now. It was a great fortune to escape unscathed.
“Enough, let’s catch up later. This place is still dangerous, let’s go quickly.” A cool female voice sounded from the back seat with a hint of laziness. The woman took off her sunhat, revealing a charming face—it was Luo Shiqi.
