Chapter 512
After speaking, he quickened his pace, clearly not wanting to walk with her.
Ye Xingguang couldn’t help but roll her eyes, “Who’s infatuated with you? Don’t flatter yourself! If I was infatuated, it would be with Lord Ye Junqing, but… stop right there!”
Li Yu waited for her for a moment, then lowered his head to look at her, “Oh, Lord Ye Junqing? I thought it was open affection, when did it become infatuation?”noveldrama
Ye Xingguang smiled happily, “Whether it’s open affection or infatuation, I just love him, that’s all that matters.”
Li Yu chuckled twice, too lazy to engage her further.
Ye Xingguang saw a small supermarket on the dock and felt hungry, “Brother Yu, shall we go in and buy some snacks for the road?”
“Not interested, buy your own snacks if you’re hungry. Don’t think you can cheat money out of me for snacks, I’m not the easily fooled kid I was before.”
“Humph, I have plenty of money. Why would I need your pocket money? Just wait for me. I’m going in to buy something to eat. I’m hungry.”
Li Yu reluctantly followed her into the store. The two of them picked and chose, ending up with many snacks and drinks.
After paying, they left the supermarket. Li Yu snatched the plastic bag full of snacks, and Ye Xingguang cried out, “That’s mine, hold it right there.”
“Only if you can take it from me.”
With that, Li Yu ran off, and Ye Xingguang chased after him in annoyance. The two of them chased and fooled around all the way to a motorboat.
The bodyguards from the Ye family, who had been assigned to assassinate Li Yu, took in the scene. They had initially planned to seize the chance to kill Li Yu once they reached the sea, but now that Ye Xingguang had joined him, they found it prudent to notify Lord Ye Junqing.
“Lord Junqing, Miss Ye is with Li Yu.”
Lord Junqing’s expression drastically changed, “How are they together?”
The bodyguard, who was tailing Li Yu, speculated, “Perhaps Li Yu left unannounced, so Miss Ye chased him from the imperial city to T City.”
The line fell silent after his words. Lord Junqing paused for a moment, seeming to find it hard to believe the bodyguard’s words, his voice suddenly cold, “Don’t babble nonsense without evidence!”
“Lord Junqing, it’s true. Li Yu couldn’t shake off Miss Ye, she chased him all the way here. We saw them ourselves. They’re now heading out to sea on the motorboat together. We planned to kill Li Yu at sea, but now Miss Ye is also on the boat…”
The bodyguard’s voice was particularly indignant!
Lord Junqing said the person who tried to kill him last night was Li Yu. Yet, Miss Ye chased him over thousands of miles, traitor!
“Shut up!” Lord Junqing left those words and abruptly hung up the phone.
Seeing the call had ended, the bodyguard, fearing that Lord Junqing might not believe him, sent the short video he took of the two together to him.
Right as Lord Junqing was planning to call and find out if Little Mermaid had left the imperial city, he received a notification for the short video sent by the bodyguards. He casually clicked on it.
Immediately, the scene of Ye Xingguang and Li Yu chasing each other around at the pier broke into his view.
The man, who was already running a high fever, felt a sudden surge of anger from his chest, burning all the way to the top of his head!
A female nurse who came in to check Lord Junqing’s temperature couldn’t even get within two meters of him before she felt the temperature around him plummet as if she had suddenly arrived in the North Pole. The bone-penetrating chill emanating from his handsome face was particularly daunting.
