Chapter 992: Chapter 992: Reunion
“You… you agreed?” Tang Yun was obviously caught off guard, not expecting Ye Shikai to agree so quickly.
“Yes, there’s fate between you and . As long as you can nd your ways, I don’t mind.” Ye Shikai said mildly.
“Thank you.” Tang Yun nodded, after all, she had nowhere else to go, and if what she said was true, that she betrayed her original organization because of Ye Shikai, then Ye Shikai was still willing to lend a hand.
“I heard you had a falling out with Miss Su, is that right?” After discussing business, Zhao Yanran seed to revert to her original position as a wedding company’s boss, starting to “gossip.” After returning to Yanjing, neither of them even investigated further as, these days, the newspapers were full of headlines about Ye Shikai and Chen Yuxin’s upcoming wedding. God knows how much Chen Yuxin spent on the press, not only getting a big headline but also securing the front page for a week straight, so much so that even the elderly who were out buying groceries knew about it.
“Yes, it’s my fault.” Ye Shikai admitted, “I had relations with Chen Yuxin, and she is now pregnant.”
“Actually, we’ve known each other since elentary school. Back then… we were boyfriend and girlfriend.”
“I never expected you and Miss Chen to have such a connection.” Tang Yun looked at Ye Shikai, her expression hesitated inexplicably. At this point, if she were to tell everything, it would undoubtedly reveal a ruthless side of Chen Yuxin to Ye Shikai. But what about the child in her belly? Moreover… what if Ye Shikai becos even more miserable because of this matter? Having just separated from his true love, he was already nearly depressed. Hearing this news would only make it worse…
This is one reason why Tang Yun kept silent.
“Tang Yun, what’s up with you, your expression… seems a bit off.”
“Uh, nothing.”
“I will explain to Ghost, they won’t give you a hard ti when you arrive at the Netherworld Palace,” Ye Shikai assured Tang Yun, who was worried about being rejected.
“Thank you.”
Ring ring.
Ye Shikai took out his phone; it was a call from Chen Yuxin. He gestured for silence before answering.
“Hello, Xin, what’s up?”
“Where are you?”
“Outside… having a al.”
“Kai, I need to visit the Netherworld Palace this afternoon; co with .”
“Ah… so soon?” Ye Shikai was a bit stunned, wondering why she suddenly decided to go.
“Yes, soon we will be setting out to the ruins, and by then, mbers of the Netherworld Palace will be part of our strength,” Chen Yuxin nodded, pondering that having the warriors of the Netherworld Palace by her side would indeed be safer. At least, in the event of danger, she would have strong allies.
“Alright, I’ll head back now.” Ye Shikai said before hanging up, “That was her call, I have so urgent business to attend to, so I’ll take my leave. Enjoy your al.”

“Ghost, how much do you know about Chen Yuxin?” anwhile, at the base of the Netherworld Palace, everyone was discussing this new “Netherworld Empress.”
“Although the Netherworld Palace mainly operates abroad, I’ve heard of Chen Yuxin. At the very least, she is a capable person,” Ghost seed to have stated the obvious. Without so ability, how could she have stabilized her position as Family Head at such a young age?
“She must not be easy to deal with,” Soul Destroyer echoed, then showed an embarrassed expression, “We almost killed her the first ti we t.”
“I’m also curious why Lord Moon God had us do this,” Nightmare said in a low voice.
“Could it be… she’s jealous?” Demoness blurted out, causing everyone to turn to her, speechless. This perspective of a little woman made it seem like waiting all these years, the divorce finally happened, but another woman snatched him away, causing great jealousy, so she prepared to kill her. It seed… quite logical.
But everyone knew Ji Qian too well; she couldn’t have done sothing so impulsive and brainless, especially attempting assassination on soone who was not ordinary. If in Yanjing, the Chen family’s influence would be much stronger than the Netherworld Palace.
“Perhaps there’s another reason.”
“She’s said to be quite ambitious.”
“No ruler is without ambition,” Ghost interjected, “except Boss.”
“Anyway, Boss and she will be here soon; let’s clear up last ti’s misunderstanding first,” Ghost said to everyone.
“Ghost, if they get married, do you think they will rge the power of the Netherworld Palace and the Chen family?” The mont Demoness asked the question, the crowd looked at Ghost as if seeking confirmation. Apparently… they were concerned about this issue too.
“Such matters should be left for Boss to decide.”
Knock, knock, knock.
“They’re here.” Ghost walked forward and pressed a few numbers on the screen. With a rumbling, the large door on the wall opened.
“Ahem, Xin, last ti was an accident. You won’t hold a grudge against them for that, will you?” Ye Shikai was worried she might dwell on the past incident, so he preemptively addressed it.
“Since you explained it, I won’t say anything more. Don’t worry, Kai.” Chen Yuxin nodded, as the door slowly opened, both appeared before everyone.

Tianya Group.
“Qingyu, negotiations with the major suppliers have been finalized, and also, President Wang’s eting is scheduled for three in the afternoon.” An Lan was reporting work updates to Su Qingyu, but the beauty before her was lost in thought, clearly absent from the office.
“Qingyu, don’t be too sad.” An Lan stepped forward to comfort her. To be honest, when she heard the news, she resented Ye Shikai as well. She had almost broken off her friendship with Su Qingyu back when she secretly liked him. She never expected that in just a few months, such an event would happen. Even now, she still felt everything was a dream.
“Do you think he’s doing well, happy, right now?” Su Qingyu murmured, looking out the window.
“He still loves you, just as you still love him, right?” An Lan walked to her side, gently consoling her.
“Yes, he ca looking for . I thought I had gotten over him, but… when I saw him again, I realized I couldn’t forget him,” Su Qingyu said, tears rolling down her cheeks, especially when she received that invitation. Her heart shattered. To her, the sender was not important, but rather the invitation itself.
