Chapter 568: Chapter 568: Return to Base
“You dare.” Su Qingyu said indignantly, placing her hands on Ye Shikai’s neck and pretending to be angry, she shouted, “I’ll strangle you.”
“Ah, to murder one’s own husband.” Ye Shikai also feigned terror and quickly ran out, both of them laughing back to the office, only to run into the little secretary Zhuang Yan who was coming in.
“Pres… President Ye.” Zhuang Yan blushed at the sight, seeming to have caught a glimpse of sothing she shouldn’t have, hurriedly lowered her head and apologized repeatedly—this girl, she couldn’t possibly think they were doing that sort of thing, right?
“You go ahead and leave.” Su Qingyu, too, was flushed with embarrassnt. This was the first ti she had shown such coyness at the company; at ho she was naturally at ease, but this was at the company, Su Qingyu’s face flushed bright red.
“Alright, alright.”
“Really, in front of you, the CEO, I’m always just air.” Ye Shikai couldn’t help but remark, as when Zhuang Yan ca in, she didn’t so much as glance at him from beginning to end, as if he were invisible—at least they were friends.
“What, feeling upset, are you?” Su Qingyu smiled playfully and then took a seat in the CEO’s chair, starting to work on so docunts.
“Sigh, never marry a strong woman,” Ye Shikai closed his eyes and complained, “A strong woman and a weak man, it’s so unfair.” Honestly speaking, if Ye Shikai were just an ordinary man, he would surely choose an ordinary girl to marry; otherwise the pressure would be too great. He still rembered those initial days when Su Qingyu had neglected him and even loathed him.
“Lucky I’m the Netherworld King,” Ye Shikai murmured softly.
“Hmph, I think you haven’t cleared out your secret funds completely.” Suddenly, a cool voice rose, making Ye Shikai jump. Su Qingyu actually brought up this matter. It was so despicable…
In the magical land of Huaxia, there’s a saying, “When a man gets rich, he turns bad.” Hence, after marriage the wife would often take control of the “financial power,” leading to the so-called “secret funds” ant to hold the man’s private money. Of course, the wives weren’t fools and would thoroughly search, giving rise to various imaginative hiding spots for money. Undoubtedly, as the Netherworld King, Ye Shikai’s secret funds could truly be called “the world’s number one secret funds.”
“Clean, absolutely clean,” Ye Shikai hurriedly defended, “I have sothing else to do, so I’ll take my leave now.”
“Hold on a second.” Suddenly, a figure flashed to his side, Su Qingyu wearing a smile as she looked at him, and any man with normal EQ could tell that this was not a good sign.
“Honey, you really have no more money on you? If you tell the truth, I won’t get mad, you know.”
“No, really none.” Ye Shikai firmly denied, he’d be damned if he believed that—as the saying goes, better to believe in ghosts than a woman’s words. Admitting it would surely lead to confiscation.
“Then I’ll just search a bit. You certainly wouldn’t mind, right?” Su Qingyu flashed an angelic bright smile, but to Ye Shikai, she was worse than a devil.
“I mind.”
“What did you say?”
“I ant to say it’s a suggestion, you misheard,” Ye Shikai quickly corrected.
“Hand over your wallet.” Su Qingyu snorted coldly and took the wallet to check it; aside from so cash, it contained several bank cards which were all subsidiary cards of Su Qingyu with limited credit lines. Ye Shikai’s previous Black Gold Card had naturally been confiscated.
“Qingyu, by doing this, you show that you don’t trust , this hurts the relationship between husband and wife…” Ye Shikai wanted to continue, but was cut off by a stern look from Su Qingyu.
Alright, you are the wife, you are the biggest.
After checking, Su Qingyu slowly opened the innermost layer, and upon seeing it was empty, she joyfully threw the wallet back to Ye Shikai.
“Alright, go and co back quickly.” Su Qingyu turned around; in fact, she didn’t really care about Ye Shikai’s secret funds. For Ye Shikai, if material wealth could buy his affection, given his conditions, he certainly wouldn’t have chosen to marry Su Qingyu, much less stay with her through thick and thin. What she wanted to see was that photo…

“Captain, I told the brothers about you coming yesterday, and they are pretty excited.” On the way, Ouyang Feng was driving an off-road vehicle, chatting with Ye Shikai. Technically, the location of Dragon Teeth Special Forces should not be disclosed, but because of Ye Shikai’s status, the higher-ups approved it very readily, enabling Ouyang Feng to bring him along.
“That’s true, I’m looking forward to seeing them too.”
Ye Shikai looked at the military base, unchanged just like four years ago – just like the old saying, ‘the camps remain the sa, only the soldiers change.’ This brought back many mories for Ye Shikai. His departure from the military four years ago directly affected his entire life.
“Identification.” Right at the gate, a soldier stopped Ouyang Feng’s vehicle. Although the Dragon Teeth Special Forces was not large in number, it was regarded as Huaxia’s “sharp sword,” a shadow force. As such, the entire post including guards, command center, and personnel at various positions, had been secretly brought in. As a support for Dragon Teeth Special Forces, upon arrival, personnel were reassigned for ease of the base’s mobilization.
“Here.” Ouyang Feng took out so docunts along with an ID. Now that Ye Shikai was no longer enlisted, entering the base required this docunt instruction.
“This is… Captain Ye.” The soldier peeked inside the vehicle, suddenly calling out excitedly as he recognized Ye Shikai’s face.
“That’s right, he’s back.” Ouyang Feng nodded, the vehicle slowly drove off, and the old soldier silently saluted. During Ye Shikai’s ti leading Dragon Teeth Special Forces, it was a glorious mont for the entire military district. It was a pity that he retired years ago; perhaps the old soldier thought Ye Shikai was rejoining the forces.
Ye Shikai returned to the command center. At the door to his forr office, he hesitated whether to enter.
“Captain, go on in,” Ouyang Feng said with a soft smile. Ye Shikai knocked on the door twice and slowly entered to find a middle-aged man in military uniform processing docunts. Although his temples were graying, he still exuded a formidable aura, and the two stars on his shoulder sparkled.
“Old superior, I’m back.”
“Ye Shikai, Major of Dragon Teeth Special Forces.” The middle-aged man looked up, his eyes serious and unsmiling. Upon seeing Ye Shikai, a rare smile appeared on his stern face.
“Old superior, those days are in the past, I have already retired,” Ye Shikai said quietly, sounding a bit downhearted.
