At the sa ti.
"Whew—"
Ye Huan stood under the showerhead, letting the icy tap water pound his body. Not only did he experience no pain from the cold, but he also felt incredibly relieved as the raging fire in his heart was swiftly extinguished.
After exhaling a breath of turbid air, he couldn't help but internally complain.
What's up with Liu Tianyun? When we were in Huaxia, she was pretty forward.
But after coming to France, she beca even more proactive!
And not just a little bit.
She almost pinned Huan-bro down!
What's the situation?
Ye Huan was utterly puzzled and sighed helplessly.
If it weren't for his strong self-control, things wouldn't have been so simple in letting Liu Tianyun go just now!
After showering, he walked out of the bathroom.
Liu Tianyun warmly embraced him once again.
Ye Huan raised an eyebrow and "threatened," "What exactly do you want to do? If this happens again, I won't let you go."
"Listen to first. Even if you want to let go, I won't let you go. I will definitely take you down!" Liu Tianyun had never spoken so boldly since her birth.
In an instant, her face blushed right up to her ears.
She felt incredibly shy, but even so, she didn't release her arms from around Ye Huan's waist.
Her eyes were filled with intense affection, as if a bit embarrassed, her voice a bit soft, "Ye Huan, a month ago, when we were still in Huaxia, didn't you ask why I was so certain that the Empress wasn't the tag-along from your childhood?"
"Hmm? Why bring this up all of a sudden?" Ye Huan asked in confusion.
"Because I want to tell you." Liu Tianyun took a deep breath and said firmly, "Actually, I am the tag-along who was always behind you when you were at Spring Welfare Institute!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Huan was startled, then furrowed his brows, "Are you joking?"
"I'm not joking; everything I said is true!"
Liu Tianyun, slightly embarrassed, took out an old, yellowed photo and placed it in front of Ye Huan: "Look."
Ye Huan focused on it and was astonished: "How do you have a photo of and the Empress..."
"What do you an, you and the Empress!"
Liu Tianyun, slightly annoyed, interrupted Ye Huan and said, "This is a photo of you and ! Don't you rember? This was taken by the director himself about a week before you left the Welfare Institute!"
"I do rember, but..."
Ye Huan's brows furrowed deeply; he never imagined that Liu Tianyun could be the tag-along!
Moreover, compared to Liu Tianyun, the Empress's reaction after recognizing him was more like the tag-along!
"If you were my tag-along, then let ask you." Ye Huan's brows were still tightly knit: "When did you recognize ? And I rember you weren't interested in at first, icy cold. Normally, after recognizing , shouldn't you be excited, happy?"
"I..."
Liu Tianyun bit her lip and confessed honestly, "From the beginning, I recognized you. But then I had a huge misunderstanding about you, thinking you were different from the 'big brother' in my heart. I kept telling myself that you weren't my 'big brother,' which is why I didn't seem excited or happy and didn't dare to acknowledge you..."
"Not only not excited or happy, but especially cold. Compared to this, the Empress's reaction is more normal, isn't it?" Ye Huan pondered for a mont and continued, "Maybe you won't be happy to hear this, but the first ti she t , she complinted on being so handso that I could be slashed, the type she really likes."
"What Empress, not Empress!"
Liu Tianyun's beautiful eyes widened slightly, and she said, "Ye Huan, wake up, okay? Clearly, I am the child who tagged along with you in your childhood; the Empress is just a fake! This photo is the best evidence!"
"Alright, alright, let's talk about this another day. Stop saying so much nonsense, just go to sleep. I have so important matters to deal with."
Ye Huan dismissively waved his hand, quickly changed into clean clothes, and went out.
Watching Ye Huan's departing figure, Liu Tianyun was dumbfounded. Why couldn't she explain it?
She had mustered up the courage to confess past events to Ye Huan.
Never thought she couldn't explain it!
Tianyun collapsed on the bed, looking utterly terrible, and felt endlessly aggrieved.
Clearly, she was the tag-along; how could the Empress have taken her place?
...
Nightfall.
A taxi pulled up at Flanders Manor on the outskirts of Paris.
Brandon and Ye Ming were standing in Armani custom-made suits at the entrance of the manor, sneering continuously.
Ye Huan had delivered himself to the door!
So, Ye Huan will have to pay a bloody price today!
"Click."
The car door opened, and Ye Huan stepped out. The affair he ntioned to Liu Tianyun earlier was naturally to deal with Brandon's issue!
He hadn't forgotten last night's phone call!
"Wow, such a big setup, huh? Is this an invitation for dinner, or setting up a trap to capture ?" Ye Huan, hands in his pockets, quirked a smile while scanning the fifty or so burly n in suits and sunglasses standing by the gate.
The waist of each man was tucked with a pistol that reflected a chilling gleam in the moonlight.
Brandon sneered, "Looks like you're not as dumb as I thought, huh? Took you a glance to see I have ulterior motives in inviting you over, huh?"
"Didn't Ye Ming ever tell you, I'm quite powerful, having taken down over twenty rcenaries ard with AKs by myself? Even fifty pistols wouldn't match the concentrated firepower of twenty AKs, right?"
"Ye Huan, stop showing off here!"
Ye Ming's gaze was venomous, sneering coldly, "These guys are just security at Flanders Manor. There's soone else who's really going to deal with you! To tell you the truth, Brandon invited a heavyweight guest from the western Dark World. Once that bigwig makes a move, you won't stand a chance!"
As he spoke, he noticed Brandon's gloomy gaze cast upon him, quickly covering his mouth, eyes darting around, realizing Ye Huan had tricked him into revealing too much.
Realizing he exposed the presence of that bigwig too early!
If this scared Ye Huan into running away, Apollo would definitely be furious for making the trip here for nothing and vent his anger on the two of them!
Who could withstand the wrath of the Sun God?
"You kid are really sneaky!" Ye Ming showed an angry expression, using reverse psychology, "If you've got the guts, don't run today, co in with us! If you don't, beat it now!"
"Even though I know you're provoking , I still want to et your invited 'bigwig,' to see just how strong they are, whether they can truly cripple my legs." Ye Huan shrugged nonchalantly, walking into the manor.
The two exchanged glances, relieved yet puzzled.
Cripple two legs?
How did Ye Huan know about that?
Could it be this guy had a nightmare?
Dread he'd be crippled, thus associating it with what's going to happen today?
HaHa!
This guy knowingly rushes headlong into danger, truly foolish!
Brandon and Ye Ming exchanged a firm handshake, faces brimming with satisfied expressions!
They'd already envisioned Ye Huan being crippled, kneeling, and singing in sheer defeat!
...
Flanders Manor, standalone villa.
In the hall, by the dining table.
"So this is your invited elite expert?" Ye Huan sat on a long bench, glanced at the aristocratic-looking blond man seated nearby, with a slightly mocking query knowing the answer.
Picking up on the mockery in Ye Huan's voice, Brandon smirked fiercely, lighting a cigar, took a puff, exhaled a smoke ring: "Don't rush; you still don't know the aning of fear, you can't see through this bigwig, but this bigwig will soon let you know what cruelty ans!"
"Believe , once he shows his strength, you won't even dare to resist!"
"Daring to show off in front of Ye Ming, making a fool of him, nearly got him shot, you sure got guts, don't you know Ye Ming is my brother? Today, you'll have a terrible ti!"
Brandon spoke violently, exhaled more thick smoke.
He felt extrely disgruntled. Initially, he wanted to sit with Apollo to get closer, to casually bond their relationship.
But Apollo directly chose the seat across, sitting next to Ye Huan, making him puzzled, feeling he lost a golden opportunity to win Apollo's favor, a huge loss!
"Buddy, I originally didn't want to co over, but Brandon's 'enthusiastic' invitation left no choice but to co over and create so trouble." Apollo patted Ye Huan's shoulder, sighed "helplessly."
