Chapter 152 - Jun Yeyan’s real identity was revealed
n
n
nBai Aoxue stepped ahead, step by step. She didn’t turn around, nor did she linger around. She just stepped out of this quiet and clean place.
n“I don’t care of the 41 lives of Helian family. But Cangsheng, the hardships and difficulties you have been through, I keep in mind for you. I will continue to accomplish the task which you didn’t have a chance to. I will not come to see you again until the day I succeed to accomplish it.” Bai Aoxue promised Cangsheng in silence.
nBai Aoxue restored her pride and indifference as usual. Her stubbornness was no one can surpass. Her eyes were with cruelty and brutality from years of killing. And her eye sight was always cold and indifferent.
n
n
nHer thin and weak body seemed to be able to hold up the sky. Her style of great momentum caused respect for her.
nJun Yeyan smiled and this was the real side of Bai Aoxue that belonged to him.
nIt was not long before they were back to the mansion. Mumian and others were waiting for them anxiously. They stopped worrying when they saw Bai Aoxue was back.
nBut when they noticed from Bai Aoxue’s red eyes that she had shed tears, Mumian and others guessed what had happened to Cangsheng, and they all felt sorry for Cangsheng.
n
n
n“Princess, the retainer from the prime minister’s mansion sent a message for you. Prime Minister Bai wanted to meet you in his mansion and give you stuffs from your mother.” Wenxi was calm. She was sad though, she had to report important issues.
nBai Aoxue lifted her eyebrows after she heard Wenxi’s report. She didn’t expect at this moment, Bai Qiwei would not stop plotting.
n“Never mind. Next time, when the retainer comes, just tell him I need rest and don’t want to meet anyone unrelated. If there is something to transfer, it is OK to just give the things to you.” Bai Aoxue didn’t give a damn care of Bai Qiwei’s intention.
nNo matter what plot Bai Qiwei would brew this time, she just didn’t bother to bear relation to him.
n
n
nBai Qiwei was just like a cockroach with strong living desire and terrible perseverance that couldn’t be beaten to death. When dealt with people like Bai Qiwei, we should kill him or never bear relation to him.
nShe would fight Bai Qiwei, to figure out who was the winner and who was the loser. But the timing was just not right.
nBai Qiwei was her father after all. Even if she wanted to kill him, she still needed a reasonable excuse. And she believed that this day was not far.
nWenxi and others listened to Bai Aoxue and nodded with agreement.
nThey all hated Bai Qiwei.
nJun Yeyan disagreed with Bai Aoxue. He thought that some sensational event would happen since Bai Qiwei tried to get in touch with Bai Aoxue at the cost of any bothering. So no matter how, he must be prepared in advance. He couldn’t bear his Aoxue to be hurt again.
n
n
n“Aoxue, I think we should go. He and Jun Wuhen must have plotted against us. We should go and check it out. Since he comes to you, we can tell that Jun Wuhen definitely doesn’t doubt you. Maybe we can get some information from him.” Jun Yeyan said softly, and he knew he just gave a piece of advice to Bai Aoxue.
nBai Aoxue was the person who made the final decision.
nBai Aoxue nodded and pondered over Jun Yeyan’s words. She hated Bai Qiwei though, if she could get some useful information from him, she would go, reluctantly though.
n“I am a little bit tired today. Let’s go tomorrow. You send someone to tell Bai Qiwei that I will go to the prime minister’s mansion tomorrow.” Bai Aoxue rubbed her eyes and said indifferently.
nWhat happened to Cangsheng today was a huge attack to Bai Aoxue. If she went to meet Bai Qiwei at this moment, she couldn’t promise that she would not take it out with Bai Qiwei.
nJun Yeyan looked at Bai Aoxue’s face which wore weariness. He knew clearly that Bai Aoxue was mourning the death of Cangsheng. And he signed lightly.
n“Well, let me send you back to get some rest. Youhong will be back in a few days. I will send him straight to you. Zhao will be here on your call at any time.” Jun Yeyan combed Bai Aoxue’s hair with ardent love.
nBai Aoxue didn’t refuse Jun Yeyan. She turned around to see Liushuang, and something got into her mind, so she asked, “Liushuang, you have been in the wild world for so long. Do you know where Qi Tiance is? Or do you have any information about him?”
n
n
nLiushuang was absent-minded but when he heard Bai Aoxue talking about Qi Tiance, he frowned a little bit. He just didn’t know why Bai Aoxue wanted to find Qi Tiance.
n“People say he was assassinated by his enemies. But I don’t buy it. I’m afraid no one knows how fierce and violent Qi Tiance is. According to the legend Qi Tiance extinguished a school with just one spear, I don’t believe he was assassinated by the ordinary fellows. He is probably a recluse somewhere, waiting for his old friends.” Liushuang said and frowned, with his eyes looking down.
nNobody could see his eye sight, and he intended to dodge eye contact with others.
nBai Aoxue knew clearly that Liushuang was hiding something. Since Liushuang didn’t want to talk, she would not push him. She would find Qi Tiance for Helian Cangyue no matter what happened.
n“Liushuang, Helian Cangyue is Qi Tiance’s master. You just mentioned old friends. Could it be Helian Cangyue that Qi Tiance is waiting for?” Bai Aoxue looked at Liushuang and asked, with a kind of cunning in her eye sight.
nLiushuang was shocked by Bai Aoxue’s words, but he hid his surprise excellently.
n“Who knows? Maybe he is waiting for you, or me?” Elegant and unrestrained Liushuang folded his iron fan and curled up his lips.
nThis was an ambiguous answer.
nBai Aoxue also curled her lips. Both of them knew exactly the meaning of their own smile. But Bai Aoxue judged from the smile of Liushuang that he must have seen Qi Tiance.
n“Well…I let you in charge of the casino. A few days later, I will discuss some details with you and I will teach you the technique of gambling.” Bai Aoxue put down tea saucer and stood up elegantly.
nJun Yeyan also stood up and held Bai Aoxue’s hand.
n“I break the rule once for you. It was a lady who hired me to kill you. She was of the same build of you. But I didn’t notice her face. I intended to kill her, but I didn’t want blood on my hands for such a filthy bitch. So I leave her to you!” Liushuang shook his iron fan elegantly and smiled.
nHis eyes were full of arrogance as usual.
n
n
nBai Aoxue nodded lightly, and her facial complexion didn’t change a bit, but a storm was brewing in her long-narrowed eyes.
nShe wished the truth was not like what she thought. If it was, she would cut the bitch into pieces.
nWhile Jun Yeyan, standing by the side of Bai Aoxue, flashed an intention of killing on his face, and the flash was so quick that nobody had a chance to notice it.
nIt turned out to be just like he had thought. Liushuang, who was appointed to assassinate Bai Aoxue, had fought with Aoxue once. It was the second time that Bai Aoxue faced with assassination.
nJun Yeyan sent Bai Aoxue back to have some rest and then he came to the bamboo yard.
n“Well, well…it is really out of my expectation. The famous Dark King disguises himself so excellently!” Liushuang crossed his arms and leaned his slim body on a tree, with an elegant style.
nJun Yeyan stopped slowly, and his eyes curled up into elegant arcs.
n“Are you surprised that I am the Dark King?” There was an intention of killing in his husky voice with a bewitched pitch.
n“No, no, no…how can I be surprised? I should have figured it out already. Lady like Bai Aoxue, will not choose a mediocre fellow as her husband.” Liushuang smiled lightly, but his eyes appropriately examined Jun Yeyan.
n“Aoxue doesn’t know I am the Dark King.” Jun Yeyan said lightly. He didn’t take care of the sarcasm in Liushuang’s words.
nLiushuang was a little bit surprised on Jun Yeyan’s words. But soon his surprise faded.
n“Well…I get the answer. I got to go.” Liushuang said wearily, flicking dust on his shoulders which didn’t exist at all.
nJun Yeyan stepped with his two long legs and left.
n“Aoxue…treats you as her friend. Please don’t let her down.” Liushuang heard warning from Jun Yeyan before Jun Yeyan left.
nLiushuang lifted his eyebrows lightly, and raised his head to see the hot sun at noon. The sunshine was bright and warm.
n“Friend? Let me just believe once…”
nWith these words, the figure in red disappeared in a second.
nAfter a while, the man in black with gilt edge, appeared again. His robe made elegant arcs in breeze, and the golden gilt was bright and luxurious.
n“Master. Is it OK to let him know your identity?” The man in black asked scrupulously, standing behind Jun Yeyan.
n“Since Aoxue believes him, then I will believe him once. But if he let my lady, Aoxue, down. I will not spare him!” Jun Yeyan’s cold voice seemed to cause the temperature of the air around him drop.
nThe man in black quivered a little, but no more talking.
nEarly in the morning the next day, Jun Yeyan received a message from the palace, which asked him to attend the morning court.
nJun Yeyan was a little surprised. He recalled no requirement of attending court in the morning, and he had always been as he pleased. But this time, Jun Wuhen was aiming at him.
nJun Yeyan asked Zhao to inform Bai Aoxue, and he went to the palace alone.
nBai Aoxue got up early, but Jun Yeyan didn’t come to have breakfast with her. Zhao told him that Jun Yeyan had gone to the palace. So she made up simply and left the mansion with Zhao and Mumian and other servants.
n“Princess, shall we go back to the prime minister’s mansion?” Mumian asked, sitting on the carriage.
nBai Aoxue was taking a rest on the soft bed in the carriage. Her closed eyes hid the magnificence in her pupils.
n“Yes, but we will go to our casino before that.”
nAfter a short while, the carriage arrived at the casino which was located at the center of the empire’s capital. The group of Bai Aoxue dismounted the carriage, and witnessed people come in and out of the casino.
nMumian and other servants were surprised when they saw this prosperous scene. But Bai Aoxue frowned and pondered.
n“Let’s go inside.” Bai Aoxue said lightly.
nMumian and other servants followed Bai Aoxue enter the casino. The gamblers in the casino all stopped their business when they saw that Bai Aoxue entered the casino.
nBai Aoxue was circled by Mumian and other servants. She was elegant in red, just like a fire that would burn people’s eyes.
n“Who is this young lady? You are so beautiful. Come here. I am the heir. Let me hug you and kiss you.” A pale hand stretched to Bai Aoxue accompanied by a filthy voice.
nBai Aoxue narrowed her eyes. When she entered the casino, she didn’t notice there was someone like this. This time it must be a tough figure.
nThe moment Zhao wanted to take action, a slim figure rushed into the way between Bai Aoxue and the man, and stopped the hand stretching to Bai Aoxue and intending to insult her.
n“Ouch…ouch…”
n
