Chapter 40 (2/2)

Shen Chen figured he might as well get up. He cut through the living room and walked to the balcony, subjecting himself to the cold winter wind. The harsh winter cold did wonders for him. At least, it calmed him down a little. After about ten minutes, Shen Chen finally opened his eyes. Regardless of what Ye Tianlong was like in the present, the fact remained that he would become a scumbag in the future. Shen Chen couldn’t just stand aside and wait for that to happen.

Shen Chen walked back to the room, and was about to get some shut-eye, when he heard a girl scream. His eyes widened! It was Ye Xiaoyu!

The good thing about evolution was that not only had his speed and power increased, but his hearing had also vastly improved. In a quiet environment, he was able to hear even the softest sound as long as it was within ten meters. It was how Shen Chen found out about the alliance between Zhang Hongtao and Li Jing.

He heard Ye Xiaoyu scream again! Shen Chen leapt up in a jiffy and headed in the direction of her scream like an unbridled stallion!

He ran up to the third floor. There were three apartments altogether, and the security door was unlocked. Shen Chen pushed open all the room doors. The women started screaming at the sight of the male intruder!

“Ahhh!” The ladies wouldn’t stop screaming.

“Shut up!” roared Shen Chen. The screams of these silly women made it difficult for him to figure out where Ye Xiaoyu’s cries for help were coming from!

Three apartments, dozens of rooms, yet Ye Xiaoyu wasn’t in any of them! D*mn it. Where was she?

He got even more anxious! It was a good thing that shouting at them worked; the ladies shut up immediately. They stared at Shen Chen in resignation, as if waiting to be ravaged.

‘They must be crazy!’ Shen Chen cursed inwardly. He would never take a fancy to them!

Just as he was getting worried, he heard another cry. His gaze landed on the last room at the end of the hallway. Shen Chen quickly ran over and kicked open the door! “Ye Xiaoyu! You…”

He then became silent. Shen Chen stood there, frozen, a tinge of awkwardness on his usually stony face. Before him, Ye Xiaoyu was holding onto the bathtub with one hand and her ankle with the other. And she… wasn’t wearing anything…

Her feminine curves, her tapered waist, and her long, slender legs—nothing was hidden from sight… And the steam in the bathroom made this beautiful young lady even more alluring.

Ye Xiaoyu stared at Shen Chen, who was standing at the doorway looking dumbfounded, with her big round eyes. A blush began spreading from her face, to her neck, and the rest of her body… Her fair porcelain skin was dusted with a light pink blush…

Shen Chen’s appearance had been so sudden that she didn’t have enough time to cover herself. She could only stare at Shen Chen helplessly with those doe-like eyes of her’s.

The fragrance of the shower foam added to the ambiance in the room. They stood there gazing at each other for what seemed like an eternity. Neither of them moved.

As the winter cold seeped in from the doorway, Ye Xiaoyu couldn’t help shivering. Would…would he close the door and come over to her? And if he did come over, should she struggle… The bathroom was hardly ideal for a first time… But she could make do with it, since it was him… Was her figure good enough for him…? Ye Xiaoyu was practically letting her imagination go wild!
