Chapter 628 - The Bankrupt Chairman(20) (1/2)

Bai Nian Residence, villa no. 11.

The LED television was playing with the news on, and it was about Siow Ling Long’s murder case.

“Young Master.” The man in suit came out of nowhere, standing behind the sofa, paid the couch a respectful bow.

A head raised from the sofa, and then the neck, and a profile…

“Young Master…” the driver stepped forward shaking, “Miss Liu told me to tell you this.”

The driver was scared that he might get choked to death by Young Master after finishing his sentence, so he leaned in the direction of the man in suit for a sense of security and quickly repeated what Shi Sheng said.

The newscast of the living room stopped abruptly. The whole place was dead quiet.

The driver’s heart was racing, is Young Master going to strangle me to death?

The driver watched Ye Jian stood up from the couch, walked around it, and stopped in front of him.

The driver’s legs began to shake, please forgive me, Young Master!

His slender hands were reaching at him, the driver’s pupils constricted as the hands were getting nearer, he tried to breathe in some fresh air, but for some reason, the oxygen could not reach his lungs.

The hands moved past his neck and landed on his shoulders, and tapped it with a strength which was neither too light nor too heavy, “go and get your reward.”

The driver seemed to breathe again only after Ye Jian left the villa. His body went limp on the ground.

He was scared to death.

……

Shi Sheng saw someone was outside her villa when she went home. That person leaned on the carved metal gate with his slender legs crossed.

At the moment, the sunlight was just right. It shone at the branches and leaves, through the canopy, and scattered into dappled spots of light, which was reflected onto him.

Shi Sheng could tell that the person was not Feng Ci with a glance, so she brought her sword with her.

Her menacing look seemed like she was looking for revenge.

At first, Ye Jian wanted to act cool in front of her, but he was scared by her brooding aura. He kneeled on the ground right away.

“Liu Sheng Ge, let’s talk like a civilian.” he reached out his hand, motioned Shi Sheng to stop.

Shi Sheng hit the metal gate with her sword, the sound, ‘dang’ was echoing with her voice, “why should I talk to you? Who on earth are you?!”

Ye Jian looked at the shining metal sword. A taste of smile showed up on his face, “you know exactly who I am. It’s not fun asking this question.”

A breeze went through his hair, and the spots of light flashed across his clear pupils like flickering light and passing shadows.

Shi Sheng’s sword was near to Ye Jian.

“My name is Ye Jian, Ye as in Ye Zi(leaves), Jian from Xi Jian(streams).” in no less than three seconds, Ye Jian’s knees were already on the ground.

Shi Sheng’s sword pressed against Ye Jian again, asked viciously, “why did you send me gifts?”

“Because I’m interested in you!” Ye Jian replied with his face sullen, “you match the criteria to be my fiancée, you have no money, but you have good looks and a good body.”

No money? Good looks? Good body?

What on earth is this?! Who told you I don’t have money!

I can’t control my inner strength anymore.

Ye Jian could feel a chill was approaching. The sunlight was reflected from her sword into his eyes, with traces of chill seeping into his organs.

The metal sword slashed through the air. The whistling sound was magnified by a thousand times.

Ye Jain did not expect she would dare to make a move.

Okay, to be fair, almost everyone would not think of this.

Ye Jian dodged away at the last minute, although he was fast, the sword still sliced through his shirt, the fabrics fell from the air softly, the sharp metal sword stabbed through them and drove straight at Ye Jian.

Ye Jian stepped back ungracefully. He grabbed a branch from aside and hurriedly climbed up that tree.

‘Hu!’ a moment before, he was still surrounded by the branches and leaves. At that moment, those branches and leaves were raining down from the sky. The atmosphere was filled with a murderous aura. Taking any steps might get slashed into pieces.

Ye Jian stood atop a tree trunk that had no leaves and branches. That figure appeared to be slightly depressing by any way looking at it.
