57 -0057: The Reaper Strikes
Although Su Guyan said she would follow Ye Xunhuan’s lead and go anywhere,
choosing a place for Ye Xunhuan to take Su Guyan to indeed pose a challenge for him!
After all, times had changed; she was no longer the former Su Guyan, now worth over a billion, having been everywhere, seen everything, and tasted every cuisine—what could possibly pique her interest?
Perhaps sensing Ye Xunhuan’s aimless driving, Su Guyan softly asked, “Could we go to the walking street?”
“Sure!”
Without further ado, Ye Xunhuan drove Su Guyan straight to the most bustling walking street in Jiangzhong City—the Zhonghua Gourmet Plaza Night Market!
Perhaps because the night’s festivities had not truly begun, the walking street wasn’t very crowded.
After finding a spot to park the car, Ye Xunhuan and Su Guyan aimlessly strolled along the walking street.
Walking there, Ye Xunhuan could clearly feel that Su Guyan’s rate of turning heads was a staggering one hundred percent, even more startling than when he and Tang Yurou had roamed the food street.
Of course, due to Su Guyan’s presence, Ye Xunhuan also garnered much attention.
On the walking street, no matter how beautiful the other women were, they couldn’t hide their feelings of inferiority upon seeing Su Guyan; men’s glances at Su Guyan were filled with a sense of awe, as if marvelling at the creator’s miracle, who had crafted someone with a perfect blend of looks, figure, and aura that made one dare not harbor any sacrilegious thoughts.
Since the walking street was mostly frequented by young couples, many women would get huffy and pinch their boyfriends for staring blankly at Su Guyan.
The women on the walking street were seriously outshone by Su Guyan.
In pain, those men reluctantly shifted their gaze away but still swept a look over Ye Xunhuan, unable to conceal their envy and resentment.
Ye Xunhuan didn’t care about these glances, merely walking beside Su Guyan, chatting now and then.
Arriving here, Su Guyan seemed exceedingly excited, just like a little girl!
All along the way, whenever Su Guyan came across a snack she found appetizing, she would taste some and also not forget to share with Ye Xunhuan.
At this moment, Su Guyan was just like a girl in love, completely sunk in the sweetness of it, engulfed in the delight of affection.
“I’m so full!” Su Guyan said with a spring-like smile looking at Ye Xunhuan, “And I’m really tired too!”
In the past, whenever Su Guyan mentioned she was tired, Ye Xunhuan would kneel and carry her on his back.
Now, Su Guyan’s face was full of expectation, hoping that Ye Xunhuan would kneel and carry her as before.
But now, Su Guyan was disappointed.
“Let’s rest over there for a bit,” Ye Xunhuan suggested, pointing to a dimly lit corner with few people around.
At the same time, Ye Xunhuan couldn’t help but stealthily glance behind him with the corners of his eyes.
After arriving at the walking street, Ye Xunhuan had felt they were being followed; initially by two, then gradually, the number increased to four.
Although the followers were well-concealed, Ye Xunhuan still noticed them.
He said nothing and didn’t inform Su Guyan.
Friend or foe, Ye Xunhuan was not yet sure, but taking a break in that corner would soon clarify the matter.
Ye Xunhuan had observed that the spot he and Su Guyan were heading for was virtually empty and quite dim—should they be enemies, it would certainly be the perfect place for a confrontation!
Su Guyan had no idea what Ye Xunhuan was thinking.
As she followed his finger to look, she was startled to discover the place he pointed out was a dimly lit corner.
Then, a bold thought emerged in her mind.
Could it be that he wanted to do that with her there…?
With that thought, a blush spread across Su Guyan’s face, and then she nodded shyly.
At that moment, Ye Xunhuan’s attention was almost entirely on the people tracking them, and he did not notice the change in Su Guyan’s expression.
Seeing Su Guyan’s nod, he walked straight toward the dark corner he had indicated.
As Ye Xunhuan had expected, the corner was very secluded due to the dim lighting and its distance from the street, and there was no one around.
After Su Guyan and Ye Xunhuan entered that dimly lit corner, the four men who were following them flashed a sharp murderous intent in their eyes, then it disappeared as quickly as it had come.
Once in the corner, Su Guyan closed her eyes, her face a mix of anticipation and nervousness, as if she was waiting for something.
When Ye Xunhuan noticed the change in Su Guyan, he asked softly, “What’s wrong?”
Su Guyan, who had been expecting Ye Xunhuan to do something to her, was shocked to hear his words.
She slowly opened her eyes, and seeing Ye Xunhuan smoking calmly, with a serene and still expression, she realized she had thought too much.
Ye Xunhuan had brought her here not for the reasons she imagined, but simply to let her rest for a while.
Right after, Su Guyan’s face turned even redder with embarrassment, but at the same time, there was a tinge of disappointment in her heart.
She couldn’t believe that Ye Xunhuan couldn’t see her obvious intentions, but he remained unmoved.
Did he really have no feelings for her at all?
“No…
nothing!”
Just as Su Guyan finished speaking, Ye Xunhuan was about to respond when a sharp murderous intent suddenly attacked, making every muscle in Ye Xunhuan’s body instantly tense up.
The assailants were not friends, but foes!
“Swoosh!”
A gleam of cold light, quick as a meteor falling from the sky, reached Su Guyan’s side in an instant!
Startled by this abrupt change, the blush on Su Guyan’s face instantly disappeared, replaced by a deathly pallor.
Was she going to die?
To die in front of the man she loved most?
She did not want him to see her at her most pitiful.
She wanted only to show him her most beautiful side, but the cold gleam, flashing with a deadly intent, did not care whether Su Guyan wished to die before Ye Xunhuan—it struck mercilessly.
For a moment, numerous thoughts flashed through Su Guyan’s mind.
If she were to die, what about him?
Would he be alright, or would he also be killed by the attackers?
Regret!
At this moment, Su Guyan’s heart was filled with an unprecedented sense of regret.
She regretted calling Ye Xunhuan out at this time!
If she could do it over, even if she missed Ye Xunhuan, even if she wanted to see him, she wouldn’t have asked him to come out.
She didn’t want Ye Xunhuan to be implicated because of her.
She wanted Ye Xunhuan to live!
