Chapter 524 (1/2)

Personal Bodyguard (2)

“Just be careful!”

“I know! I’ll try to avoid entering the palace. If I do enter, do not follow me, I can do this alone! If anything happens to me, wait for my signals, do not be rash!” Ye Lang warned sternly. He did not want anything to happen to Coldblood Five.

If he had to choose between failing the mission and Coldblood Five’s safety, he would choose the latter. He would rather fail this mission.

Worst case scenario, if he had to pick Coldblood Five or Tigress’ father, he would still choose Coldblood Five, this was undeniable!

However, he should not need to make such a decision!

The leader nodded. “It’s not a problem if you want to visit Li Yue though, Her Majesty had planned for you both to enter the palace together anyway.”

“...” Ye Lang fell silent. These people would still follow him if he visited Li Yue, they’d likely disrupt his work and they could use Li Yue as a piece to threaten him if they needed to.

“Let’s go then!” Ye Lang said mildly. “You must have a carriage, right?”

What choice did he have? All he could do was take one step at a time, maybe this was a good thing?

Maybe Zhao Yarou didn’t have any ill intentions…

On the other side, a typical family drama trope was unfolding in the Li family’s living room.

“Father, Mother, I want to leave!” said Li Yue calmly. There was a steely resolve in her voice.

“No, you’d better stay home today. We’ll all attend Her Majesty’s party together! Don’t think about meeting that fox kid, he’s not suitable for you!” Li Tianjun said sternly.

“Suitable or not, that is for me to decide. I don’t want to argue but please don’t stop me from living my life!” Li Yue’s tone was still as mild as ever.

“How many times have I said this? Why aren’t you listening? What’s so good about that kid? He’s just a pretty face. He’s absolutely useless! You were there and you saw what he did when he was attacked. He hid behind you, he hid behind a woman!” Li Tianjun had been repeating himself countless times but he realised his daughter wasn’t listening.

“I know what kind of person he is. We can’t judge someone by their looks sometimes, you’ll regret this!” said Li Yue.

When he heard his daughter speaking to him like that, Li Tianjun immediately retorted with, “Tell me then, what kind of person is he? If you can make valid points, I will let you meet him.”

“He’s a… I don’t know how to describe him either, but he’s not what you think he is!” Li Yue could not find words to describe Ye Lang’s personality, he was an oddball and a mixture of contradictions!
