Chapter 78 – The Madam Calls (1)

Yan Xu did not say much. “This is between her and me. You have no right to ask.” Seeing Mo Linyuan’s darkening face, he added, “However…your life is better now. But it doesn’t mean you should forget your old owner. As far as I know, someone is going to assassinate her today. ”

“What?” A hint of panic flashed through the eyes of the originally calm Mo Linyuan. He thought for a moment and said, “All right.” He said to the two men in black beside him. “Zhaowen. Zixu. You two, go back with him. Protect that person in the dark.”

“No! How can we leave Your Highness?” They immediately objected.

“It’s all right. The rest would arrive soon…there should be no problem with my safety. Moreover, this task won’t be for too long. I’ll follow afterward.” He then strictly ordered, “You two have to protect that girl at all cost. If she is hurt in the slightest or someone was able to harm her, you will both have to answer to me.”

When he said that, a murderous aura exploded from his body as his eyes held frost. The two men didn’t dare to say anything and could only bow their heads and follow this order.

He would not allow harm to befall on her!

Meanwhile, Yan Xu did not linger. His last thoughts were on Mo Linyuan real identity. But he tossed this problem to the side for now; he will send someone to investigate later. Right now, it was more important for him to study Ye Li’s actions closely.

What’s that pipsqueak Ye Mu doing? He couldn’t help but thought as he dashed away from Official Liu’s residence.

The main courtyard was currently bustling with noise and excitement. From this, Ye Mu knew that the Wen family had finally arrived.

They want to assassinate me? Ye Mu rolled her eyes. She then thought of a solution. Hiding in a vase in the outer hall, she entered the Turtle Aura.

For a long period, several groups of people had entered the house. They had all come in without noticing her hiding spot. After a while, she could hear one person rush directly inside the inner room. Finding out that the person he wasn’t looking for wasn’t in there, he left, muttering a few words.

As Ye Mu listened to the voices outside, there wasn’t the slightest bit of fluctuation in her heart as she seemed to become one with the vase, immobile. Unexpectedly, she was able to hear snippets of Yan Xu’s voice among the mixed conversations.

“That’s strange….could it be that she went to the main courtyard?”

Yan Xu wanted to go to the main courtyard to take a look. But as soon as he finished speaking, a hand stretched out from the vase beside him.

“Ah! Don’t go! I’m inside here~” A muffled sound came from the vase.

Yan Xu was stunned for a moment. His expression of Ye Mu was that, although she was still young, this little girl was a ruthless one. It just never occurred to him that she would hide again. And in such a conspicuous spot nonetheless.

“What are you standing there for?!” Ye Mu’s stifled voice echoed when she found out he wasn’t about to extend a hand, “I can’t get out!”

He shouldn’t have laughed. However, Yan Xu could not help but smile. He walked over and stretched out his hand, swiftly grabbing Ye Mu by the collar and lifting her out of the vase!

This posture…it was no different from carrying a wolf cub!

Cough…cough, cough! Ye Mu went as she was held up by the collar. Flapping her stout arms and legs in the air, she angrily said, “Bastard! What are you laughing at? Why aren’t you letting me down?! D*mn, you’re suffocating this treasure baby!”

Now, even Yan Xu’s eyes were filled with laughter. Who would call themselves treasure?

She doesn’t have shame one bit!

He carefully placed Ye Mu on the ground. The tiny figure was not even as long as his legs. Her hair was in disarray, clothes were askew and the tender, white bun’s face seethed with anger.

He couldn’t explain how cute this sight was.

“Why are you hiding in a vase?” Yan Xu couldn’t help but ask, bending to her level. Ye Mu merely rolled her eyes and answered imposingly, “Who has the brains to fight me? They’re all stupid. No one was even able to notice me!”

As she spoke, her eyebrows rose and her chin was held up. Her face, which looked so small, failed to conceal how pleased she was with herself.

Yan Xu pursed his lips to hold back his laughter. Ye Mu only glared at him angrily.

“Hey! What are you laughing at?” Her tone took a more serious note as she remembered her request, “Did you manage to save the person I wanted you to save?”

When Yan Xu heard this, his smile gradually disappeared and he only pointed behind him. Only then did Ye Mu realize that two men standing behind him, did her expression became more solemn. But Yan Xu stood there with the calm aura, waiting for her reply.

“This…who are these two people?” She could only ask confusedly.
