Capítulo 867: Chapter 867: Eliminating Troubles Quickly
“What, you don’t believe in my strength?” Luo Shiqi smiled faintly, and the hands pressing on Ye Shikai’s shoulders secretly added so strength, squeezing Ye Shikai until he felt a mix of soreness and comfort.
“Haha, compared to Wang Qian, I think you’re even more dangerous.” Ye Shikai said calmly, his eyes closed, fully enjoying the massage from Luo Shiqi.
“You’re right.” Suddenly, Ye Shikai felt an icy coldness on his neck. As he opened his eyes, he saw a knife tightly gripped in Luo Shiqi’s delicate hands, pointed directly at his neck. Her eyes were fixated on him, a sly smile playing on her face, like a she-wolf eyeing a lamb.
The feeling was just like being doused with a bucket of cold water in the middle of a cold winter.
She truly is a dangerous woman.
“Cough cough, Shiqi, this is really no ti for jokes.” Ye Shikai coughed lightly twice, slowly reaching out to push Luo Shiqi’s little hand away.
“Hmph, if you ever dare to wrong , I will…” As Luo Shiqi spoke, she forcefully pushed the knife inward, luckily Ye Shikai’s hand blocked it, or else his carotid artery would have been slit open.
“What are you talking about, I’m not Chen Shii.” Ye Shikai slowly stood up, quickly taking the knife from her hand.
“Hmph, as long as you understand. Don’t worry, Wang Qian might not be able to do anything to .”
“It’s better to be careful.” Ye Shikai advised. As a powerful family, besides its imnse wealth and background, its internal heritage mattered even more. The Wang Family secretly cultivated many cultivators, a fact Ye Shikai was aware of; in contrast, Luo Shiqi’s side only had her team of bodyguards as cultivators. If anyone tried to harm her, there could be trouble.
Ye Shikai didn’t believe in Wang Qian’s character. If she dared to harm Luo Shiqi, she’d surely disguise it as an accident. The more he thought about it, the more anxious Ye Shikai beca. Should Luo Shiqi go to see Wang Qian, she might really be attacked.
“Why don’t I accompany you?” Ye Shikai continued.
“Really, it’s not necessary.” Luo Shiqi felt ward by Ye Shikai’s concern for her safety, “I have so personal matters that I need to discuss with her directly. Rest assured, I will protect myself.”
“Alright then, I’ll have my n ensure your safety. Honestly, I really don’t trust those bodyguards of yours.” Ye Shikai shook his head and said with a sigh.
“Alright.”

“Brother Hu, that guy nad Ye, isn’t he too arrogant?” Inside a villa, Wang Hu’s face was red, obviously from holding back his anger. For a ruthless person like him to tolerate such treatnt and pretend to accept it was unbearable.
“Bastard.” Wang Hu kicked hard, sending the redwood furniture flying. If Ye Shikai saw this, he would be shocked—Wang Hu was actually a cultivator; otherwise, how could such heavy furniture be kicked away?
“Brother Hu, calm down.” A lackey approached, bowing his head subserviently.
“That guy nad Ye, constantly opposing our Wang Family, he’s courting death.” Wang Hu cursed loudly.
“If it weren’t for Luo Shiqi supporting him, would he dare to be so reckless?” The lackey said with a sly grin, offering a cigar.
“Hmph, if it’s only Luo Shiqi backing him, I’m not afraid at all. Actually, today I wanted to contend with her, but I didn’t expect that guy nad Ye to interfere.” Wang Hu said viciously.
“What, could this Ye Shikai have so other background?”
“That’s worth investigating.” Wang Hu downed the red wine in front of him, “The young lady specifically instructed not to provoke him rashly, saying he’s a mysterious figure. As for his background, even the young lady hasn’t told .” Wang Hu looked puzzled, in the Underworld, he had never heard of Ye Shikai. His background, Wang Qian might know, but indeed hadn’t spoken.
“So, Brother Hu, you avoided confrontation today and deliberately agreed to that woman Luo Shiqi?”
“For now, this is the only way. I must return to the Wang Family to consult with the young lady.”
“No need, I’m already here.”
Just as Wang Hu finished speaking, a woman walked in from outside, dressed in office wear as if she had just co from the company.
“Greetings, young lady.” Wang Hu stepped forward and respectfully bowed.
“I heard you t with Luo Shiqi at the club today.” Wang Qian sat directly in the middle of the sofa, Wang Hu stood to the side, and the attendants, seeing this, quietly withdrew.
“Young lady, you already know.”
“Hmph, that Luo Shiqi, she’s not soone who can stay idle. She’s dangerous, as is that Ye Shikai. He’s an even tougher character.” Wang Qian said coldly.
“Compared to you, young lady, they’re hardly a threat.”
“Wang Hu, have you started flattering ?” Wang Qian spoke coldly, causing Wang Hu’s expression to change, imdiately bowing to apologize.
“Young lady…”
“Enough, let’s skip the nonsense.” Wang Qian impatiently waved her hand and continued, “This Ye Shikai is not a typical character; I don’t want to provoke him for now.”
“Young lady, I’m afraid things won’t go as you wish. That guy nad Ye seems determined to oppose us.” Wang Hu said grimly, Wang Qian’s expression growing more severe.
“He has an ambiguous relationship with Luo Shiqi, but it’s clear they’re in cahoots. Today’s eting was largely his doing.”
“It’s unexpected that after marrying Su Qingyu, he still remains ambiguous with Luo Shiqi, seems… indeed extraordinary.”
“So, young lady, should we…” Wang Hu gestured with his right hand across his neck.
“If possible, then go ahead and prepare.” Wang Qian hesitated for a mont and finally nodded. Though Ye Shikai’s identity was mysterious, the Wang Family’s power was undeniable. His assistance to Luo Shiqi significantly hampered Wang Hu’s expansion of the Underworld influence and prevented Wang Qian’s territory from growing. Additionally, it was about the previous marriage—the fact that Su Qingyu chose to marry Ye Shikai rather than the Wang Family’s young master, Wang Hai, which embarrassed Wang Qian. If Ye Shikai was truly killed, then Su Qingyu would beco a new widow, perhaps serving as a release for her anger.
“Alright, I’ll start preparing right away.”
“Do it cleanly; I don’t want any repercussions.” Wang Qian ordered.
“Rest assured, young lady.” Wang Hu finished and left the room.
