56: Chapter 56: Visitor from the Netherworld Palace 56: Chapter 56: Visitor from the Netherworld Palace “Who exactly are you.” The woman stood with an icy-faced expression, her eyes still carrying a trace of fear, a murderous aura she had never seen before.
Even though Ye Shikai had yet to make a move, his presence alone was incredibly oppressive.
“Those who knew my identity are already dead, like Du Ya, are you sure…
you want to know.” Ye Shikai spoke coldly, his tone chilling to the bone, making the woman tremble with fear, feeling engulfed by a sense of imminent danger.
“Hmph, you may leave.
And don’t forget to convey my ssage to your master.” The way Ye Shikai spoke was with the contempt of a superior toward an inferior, in front of a power like the Netherworld King, there was no room for the weak, the woman struggled to stand up, staring hard at Ye Shikai, her eyes filled with defiance, and she stepped out of the room.
Ye Shikai let out a sigh in the shadows, truly unsure of how to explain this to Su Qingyu.
On the way back to the company, Ye Shikai’s thoughts were in disarray.
He thought returning to Huaxia would allow him an undisturbed life, but unexpectedly, he had encountered so many incidents these days, the Fox Hunter Killer Group, Du Ya, a female assassin, Luo Shiqi, Su Qingyu…
one event interlacing with another like a spider web.
And the superior ntioned by the female assassin, hidden in the shadows, who could it be?
Ye Shikai was sowhat worried, he was no longer alone, he had his wife in the eyes of the law, Su Qingyu, his sister-in-law witch Su Ziqing, and many others…
After returning to the company, Ye Shikai entered the lobby on the first floor.
He had planned to go up and explain things to Su Qingyu when suddenly, his expression changed.
Danger, there was a murderous intent.
Following that sense, Ye Shikai saw five n sitting in the lobby on the waiting chairs, dressed casually without any uniform attire.
If it weren’t for their murderous aura, they wouldn’t draw anyone’s attention.
But when Ye Shikai caught sight of the skull emblem on their chests, his expression returned to normal – it was the Ghost faction that had arrived.
One of the n saw Ye Shikai enter the company and imdiately approached, bowing slightly and respectfully said, “Lord Netherworld King.”
“You are from the Ghost faction, I won’t say much, you must ensure Su Qingyu’s safety.” Ye Shikai spoke gravely, feeling relieved that people from Netherworld Palace had arrived in ti, otherwise, he couldn’t imagine the consequences.
Such incidents must not recur.
“Yes, Lord Netherworld King, we’ve already dealt with all the assassins that ca today,” the man said.
“Good, continue to protect her covertly from now on.”
“Understood.” After speaking, the man left the company with the others.
Seeing these people arrive gave Ye Shikai so peace of mind; after all, he was just one person and couldn’t be everywhere at once.
Having a few helpers relieved a lot of his burden.
Reaching the top floor, Ye Shikai felt a bit awkward about how to explain the situation to Su Qingyu, “Eh, how co you’re up here again?” A crisp voice rang in his ear, it was Su Qingyu’s secretary Zhuang Yan, “Sigh, Miss Zhuang, what do you an by ‘again’?” Ye Shikai was exasperated, it seed that this little secretary was particularly concerned about him coming up to see Su Qingyu, but that’s his wife after all.
“Hmph, you always seek the president, it definitely can’t be for anything good,” Zhuang Yan turned her head away, pouting cutely, leaving Ye Shikai sowhat speechless.
What does she an ‘nothing good’?
Also, why is she always targeting him?
Does he look like a bad guy?
No, he thought himself to be quite handso.
“The president is so beautiful, and you, an employee, seeking her out can’t possibly be for work-related matters—it must be because you want that.” After speaking, Zhuang Yan’s face turned completely red, too embarrassed to say the last part outright.
Well, it seed he was defeated by her.
Gently knocking on the office door, Ye Shikai turned the knob and entered with so trepidation.
Su Qingyu, hearing the noise, lifted her head from the pile of docunts, glanced at Ye Shikai, and said indifferently, “What’s going on today, making stay in the office.”
“Uh, nothing much.
I just don’t know what’s wrong with today, my heart keeps aching, and I feel like sothing’s going to happen to you.
I even did a divination and it showed that my wife, you’re facing a violent calamity today,” Ye Shikai said earnestly.
Okay, he had to admit that he made up the excuse; he couldn’t exactly bring up the assassin, could he?
After hearing this, Su Qingyu let out a laugh.
“You actually believe in that stuff?” Su Qingyu chuckled softly, a smile still on her face.
Ye Shikai was elated; he truly was a genius to make his wife laugh with a random excuse.
“Nevermind, forget it.
Tonight, I’m going to a banquet.
You go back to the villa later and change into another set of clothes, then wait for there,” Su Qingyu said and then bowed her head, her pen moving rapidly over the docunts.
“What, isn’t it fine if Zhuang Yan accompanies you?
What does a small public relations departnt employee like have to do there?” Ye Shikai said, sowhat puzzled as to why Su Qingyu was dragging him along.
“What, aren’t you happy to act as my male secretary for once?” Su Qingyu said, her face showing a bit of pouting anger.
“Of course not, I’ll just accompany you,” Ye Shikai was sowhat confused, thinking about how Su Qingyu was acting so oddly; it couldn’t be that she was also an imposter, could it?
Ye Shikai returned to the public relations departnt and went straight to the office to find An Lan, “Lan, I need to take leave today.
The president asked to accompany her to a gala.”
“Mm, I know, the president already inford ,” An Lan said with a slight smile, then asked with so curiosity, “What’s your relationship with the president?”
“Hehe, the president is my wife,” Ye Shikai said with a laugh, and although it was indeed the truth, An Lan didn’t believe it.
“Pfft, I don’t believe that,” An Lan turned her mouth away and said, “Off you go then.”
“Hehe, bye Lan,” Ye Shikai waved his hand and left the company, returning to Lishi District.
When Ye Shikai opened the door, he saw Su Ziqing, the little girl, sitting comfortably on the sofa with her fair little legs propped up, watching TV, “Eh, Qingqing, why did you co back so early today?” Ye Shikai asked.
“Today my sister is going to a banquet, and she asked to go with her,” Su Ziqing took a bite of her chips and said lazily, “What about you, brother-in-law, are you going too?” Suddenly, Su Ziqing’s eyes lit up, staring intently at Ye Shikai, “Right, your sister asked to go too, not sure why she wants to go.”
“Hehe, brother-in-law, co on, I’ll take you upstairs to change,” Su Ziqing grabbed Ye Shikai’s arm and went up to the second floor.
Entering Ye Shikai’s room, Su Ziqing directly opened her own wardrobe.
Ye Shikai’s wardrobe was simple, without too many accessories, aside from a few ties, two plain suits, and so change of clothes, there was also that dark blue suit bought for him by Su Qingyu.
“Eh, brother-in-law, when did you buy this black coat?” Su Ziqing pointed to the coat hanging on the upper part of the wardrobe, Ye Shikai looked closely, wasn’t that the coat Luo Shiqi bought for him?
