Shen Qianshu shut her mouth. Her eyes darted towards the second floor. Under such circumstances, she would never bring the devil back home. Tong Hua should be home.
"Master, why did you come?"
"If I didn't, how would I have been able to watch such a good show?" Ye Ling said rudely. "How many boyfriends have you exactly had these years?"
Shen Qianshu felt so awkward that she wanted to dig a hole in the ground and hide in it. There were not many. She was only serious with five of them. Those that she went on a date with, well, there were many of those. Ye Ling's gaze was cold, but Shen Qianshu did not let it get to her. Towards Lin Xuan, she was confident and able to retaliate righteously. Yet, when she met Ye Ling, she was subconsciously more vulnerable.
Strictly speaking, the emotional pain that Ye Ling had caused her to experience was far deeper than the one Lin Xuan did.
But why did she feel guilty?
A few years ago, Master's temper was not so terrible. He only raged when he was unwell; otherwise, he would just seem expressionless all the time. Psychologically speaking, dual personalities in a person are independent of one another and will almost never go away. Humans are different too; they are constantly fighting against one another, thinking that they are the main one. They want to get rid of one another, and they make each other their greatest enemy. Ye Ling's case was very extraordinary; have they both affected one another?
"Are you mute?"
"Just one!" Shen Qianshu stuck up one finger and said cowardly.
"Liar. I've already met two."
"I dated this guy before we met," Shen Qianshu said.
Ye Ling could make out the full story in his brain. Shen Qianshu lifted her head up hurriedly. Was he here for a little princess again?
Ye Ling stared at her coldly. "When exactly are you going to promise to give me a little princess?"
His tone sounded as if he was asking "when are you going to buy me an egg from the supermarket?"
Shen Qianshu was about to break down.
"Master, I-I can no longer give birth." Pain could be seen from the expression in Shen Qianshu's eyes.
Ye Ling's face darkened. "Liar!"
"It's true." Shen Qianshu stared at him. "Back then, when I gave birth to little brother, it was very risky. After giving birth to him, I lost a lot of blood. My body has been badly damaged, and the doctor said the chances of me getting pregnant again was incredibly small."
"Not a problem!" Ye Ling raged. After three seconds he continued. "Just an incredibly small chance. Not that you can't give birth anymore. If it really doesn't work, I'll dig out another woman's uterus and put it in you."
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
Uhh…
What the heck?
Wasn't the usual storyline supposed to go like 'okay, since you can't give birth to a little princess, I'm sorry for the disruption, bye.'
Master, why can't you do it the usual way?
"I'm hungry."
I get it, you want to eat.
Bye, I'm not sending you off. Have a safe journey.
Shen Qianshu bowed and sent him off. "Then, I shall not cause you any disturbance. Bye."
She turned around and left, but Ye Ling grabbed her by the arm and said, "Is there something wrong with your intelligence? I want you to make me a meal."
She was speechless.
Who is the one with a problem with their intelligence?
"My son's home."
"Trouble!" Ye Ling complained and dragged Shen Qianshu into the car.
A navy blue Bugatti race car sped into the neighborhood, and Shen Qianshu's eyes widened. This was when she realized. "I need to go home to cook for my son!"
"Is he disabled? Let him do it himself."
Shocked, Shen Qianshu stared at the hand on the steering wheel. The hand was fully normal. The only things missing were the words in her dark eyes that said "do you have a face?"
Are you disabled?
Master, you are doubting a child who isn't even seven yet on not knowing how to cook. Is your conscience clear?
Ye Ling stared at Shen Qianshu and could feel the insulting expression in her eyes. "Shut your ugly eyes or I'll gouge them out."
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
What a tyrant!
Ye Ling dragged Shen Qianshu to the villa. This was an extremely crowded area for villas, and they were grandeur and magnificent. A bunch of rich youth lived here, and this area was specially built to cater to their needs. They were all European style, and the further one goes in, the quieter it got.
The scenery was beautiful.
Enormous patches of grass were well kept and very tidy. The plants were placed with Feng Shui taken into account. About 1km away from the crowded areas, there were several small European-style villas. They were all pitch black as if it was a rich ghost town.
Shen Qianshu was dragged into the villa by Ye Ling, and he turned on the lights.
She had an unspeakable sense of fear.
Seven years ago, Butler Luther's words still remained clearly in her ears.
Leave the castle before dark.
The night symbolized the devil and fear.
Right now, it was pitch black outside.
There was only him and her.
It was as if history was repeating itself.
Back then in that isolated castle, there was only him and her.
She was abused back then, and nobody came to her rescue.
With a heart full of fear of being violated, she could not find any comfort at all.
"Master?"
"Make me a meal!" Ye Ling hurried upstairs and Shen Qianshu took a deep breath. After all, he was a man of wisdom.
No worries, prepare a meal then hurry home.
Shen Qianshu did not dare to waste any time. In China folklore and horror stories, twelve o'clock at midnight was a curse.
For example, at twelve midnight, vampires transformed.
After twelve midnight, devils came out.
At twelve midnight, ghosts lurked around etc…
They were all stories made up to scare children.
But she did not dare to not believe in them.
It was dark, what if Master's illness recurs?
Go along with him, don't intimidate him.
This was what she concluded seven years ago.
The villa was well designed, but there was no sign of human life. Shen Qianshu was prepared to open the fridge to see only beers and instant noodles. She never thought that the fridge would be filled. She took out some ribs and steak. They were fresh and even tailored.
The vegetables and meat in there were nicer than the ones sold at the markets.
"Capitalist!" Shen Qianshu began on preparing the meal. PLOP! Just as she was about to cut the beef, a noise shocked Shen Qianshu, and she almost chopped off her fingers. A window in the kitchen was facing the big pool outside, and she could see Ye Ling swimming like a valiant military leader. The lighting outside was great, and the water was pure, which made his figure seem ever more…
Wow!
Straight into her heart!
He had a great V-shaped body, slim and long legs as well as perfect muscles. It was… tempting.
Ye Ling kept swimming, and Shen Qianshu did not dare to disrupt. She looked down and cooked, occasionally looking at him. While cooking, she could admire the handsome lad swimming which was really… pleasant to her eyes and her heart.
When Master keeps quiet, he's really such a Prince Charming.
Ye Ling swam for forty minutes and exited the pool like a ferocious tiger. Shen Qianshu was admiring him when she received a phone call.
Tong Hua.
"Mummy, haven't you knocked off yet?"
"Mummy's still busy, are you home alone? Has Aunt Xiaojuan left?"
"Yeah, I'm alone. Mummy, have you eaten? I left some fried rice for you. I put sausages, chicken, corn, and peas. It's really yummy!"
Shen Qianshu broke into a cold sweat, deeply feeling that she had let her son down.
"Babe, you're so amazing. You cooked your own food?"
"Yeah, I wanted to wait for you so we could eat together, but I was too hungry."
"Aww… how sad."
Tong Hua laughed. "Mom, what time will you be back?"
"In about an hour. Don't wait for me, go to bed if you're sleepy."
"Okay. Mummy don't work too hard! I'll support you."
