Chapter 420 (1/2)

Fishballs and Noodles (1)

“You really think this he's worth it?”

Even Athena was confused. Her plan was to use Ye Lang to coerce Tigress, but she wasn’t expecting Tigress to agree so easily.

Based on her reaction, Tigress probably wouldn't have batted an eyelid if Athena told her she had to die for Ye Lang.

But what the hell was going on here? Is she signing up to be a slave again? Looking at them, she was sure Tigress was once his servant.

“Of course he is! Let him go!” Tigress didn’t like it when Athena gripped Ye Lang’s arm like that.

Athena immediately retracted her hand. She hadn’t realised the significance of her actions. Recalling how intimate she was with Ye Lang, she blushed.

It was at this moment, she stole a glance at Ye Lang, hoping to catch a reaction. Ye Lang was focused on Tigress, as if contemplating the current situation.

Although she couldn’t read his mind, she was certain that Ye Lang’s thoughts concerned Tigress.

“Master, why are you with them? Where are your people?” Tigress asked casually while dusting Ye Lang’s shirt, trying to straighten the creases.

“I have no one else, just me!” Ye Lang enjoyed Tigress’ service, for he was used to it. His experience with Tigress was much more pleasant than that of Taeya’s.

“You’re alone? How could they let you come here alone knowing you’d be lost?! Hmph, I shouldn’t have returned. It’s your fault, you shouldn’t have sent me back.” Tigress’ heart ached when she thought about how Ye Lang came looking for her alone.

“No, I had a coachman who drove me here. But someone stopped the carriage from entering, so I had to sneak in...”

“You should’ve waited outside, we’re in the middle of a battle here. What would we do if you got hurt in the midst of this?” asked Tigress with concern in her voice. After she inspected Ye Lang from head to toe and realised he was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief.

“But if I were to wait, I’d have to wait for weeks!” said Ye Lang with a giggle. “I’ve missed you so much!”

At this moment, Ye Lang went over to Tigress and hugged her.

It was this warm feeling that Tai Ya couldn’t give. There was one thing he finally confirmed, it was that Taeya was not Tigress. He now understood why he had been having an odd feeling during the past few days.

“I’ve missed you too, silly!” replied Tigress while comfortably letting Ye Lang hug her. Her arms were wrapped around his waist, as if in response to his embrace.

It was during this embrace, that the pair were recalling their fondest memories together, during better days. They wished that they could embrace a little longer, or rather that this moment could last forever, while time stood still.

“Uh… can you both get a hold of yourselves? There are literally thousands of people here watching!” interrupted Athena, who felt uncomfortable watching the two of them being so dramatic.

However, Athena didn’t know that Ye Lang didn’t care what others thought of them. If he wanted to hug Tigress, he would continue to hug her, and everyone else will just have to wait and watch.
