"Tsk…" Tong Hua humphed arrogantly. Trying to put my finger in the fire? Not a chance!
Shen Qianshu came to the villa hurriedly. The men in black remained in their positions, and nobody stopped her. She entered the villa totally undisrupted. She originally thought that Tong Hua and Ye Ling would have gotten into a conflict. Tong Hua did not have an amiable personality, and Ye Ling's temper was even worse. She thought that her son would definitely have been bullied.
Who knew that when she entered the living room worriedly, she would see Tong Hua playing games on his phone and constantly stuffing his mouth with snacks? He was even insulting his teammate haughtily. Beside him, Zhong Ran was asking him to lead the game like a mini fan of his. Tong Hua rejected him heartlessly.
It was a scene that was hard to describe.
"You look like a terrible teammate. I only help my mommy. I don't help losers."
"I bet your mum's a loser."
"If she's a loser, I can bear with her. If you want to get high ranks, you still have hope if you start working hard now. Who knows? The game might still be around in seven years. I believe in you."
Zhong Ran was speechless.
Shen Qianshu said, "… Tong Hua!"
"Mommy!" Tong Hua threw down his phone and ran towards her, looking like a kidnapped child who had been badly frightened. He wanted to complain to her. Zhong Ran took his phone and played his game.
He was clever. After watching little master play, he felt that he already learned how the game worked.
"Are you okay?"
"He's really fierce." Tong Hua revealed a pitiful expression. "He scolded me and yelled at me. He even threatened to kill me. Mommy, he's so scary. Let's keep our distance from him."
Shen Qianshu caressed her son's face. The fear in her heart had finally subsided. She could not predict Ye Ling's personality; he was too unpredictable.
He disliked Tong Hua even more.
Tong Hua's words may sound questionable, but they were mostly real.
Ye Ling… What exactly do you want?
"Mommy's here. You'll be fine." Shen Qianshu said. She was heartbroken. In these ten days, he was kidnapped twice, both because of her.
"Mommy…"
Shen Qianshu was thinking of how to deal with Ye Ling but could not come up with anything great.
Too troublesome.
Every smart move was built upon skillful foundations.
If the skill levels were too different, every move and intelligence would not matter.
Everything that's left was only grinding.
"Zhong Ran, where's your master?"
Zhong Ran turned into a gaming addict and did not even lift up his head. He pointed towards the second floor and said, "The study room. Go up. Turn left. Second room."
Shen Qianshu got up and went to search for Ye Ling. Tong Hua was afraid that her Mommy would be at a loss. After all, Ye Ling seemed really fierce.
"The owner of your house…"
"Little Master, don't worry. Master is very kind, he doesn't kill."
Tong Hua was speechless.
Are you kidding me?
The only thing missing were the words 'yeah, total bs' on Tong Hua's face. He turned around to see Zhong Ran playing his game and pounced over. Just then, his Detective Dee was slashed to death by Ukyo Tachibana, and he raged, "are you dumb? How could you let Ukyo kill solo? Wait. 9-9? So you didn't kill anyone, but you died seven times?"
Zhong Ran moved around and said, "Little Master, don't be so agitated."
On the second floor, Shen Qianshu went up.
This villa was huge. There was even a small bridge linking towards a smaller villa. It was for the helpers and bodyguards. Ye Ling stood with his hands clasped behind his back and stood staring out of the window at the lake outside. Shen Qianshu knocked on the door and entered.
"Ye Ling, what did you kidnap Tong Hua for?"
"Does he look like a kidnapped person?" Ye Ling turned around with some hostility in his expression. Seeing Shen Qianshu made him rage uncontrollably. She actually wanted to escape?
She actually dared to!
"What do you want?" Shen Qianshu said.
"Shen Qianshu, you're too naive. Seven years ago. So are you now. Luther warned you to never stay over in the castle, but you never listened. I warned you to never try to escape. You never listened." Ye Ling approached her step by step and moved Shen Qianshu's chin up. "Disobedient girls, have to pay."
A chill ran down Shen Qianshu's spine, and she hit his hand, slightly avoiding him. The obvious behavior of her wanting to hide triggered Ye Ling. He kicked the door of the study room and stared at Shen Qianshu deeply.
"Master, you've gone too far," Shen Qianshu said. People who were overly powerful were always self-centered and barely consider others' feelings. Ye Ling was the classical example of a stubborn tyrant.
People around him either obeys or dies.
"So what if I am?" Ye Ling shrugged. Behind him, there was dark light. "Did you think that you'd avoid me if you escape to New York? Naive!"
Shen Qianshu finally understood the reason he raged.
"H-How did you find out?"
"Guilty?"
"What's there to be guilty for? My job needs me to fly to New York. What's there to be guilty for?" Shen Qianshu glared at Ye Ling angrily. "Just because of this tiny thing, you made a mountain out of a molehill?"
"Tiny thing?" Ye Ling approached her nearer. "To you, this is tiny?"
"Master, d-don't be agitated." Shen Qianshu stuck out both hands to block his chest.
That warmth seemed like it could burn her. Shen Qianshu wanted to remove her hands, but she was afraid that Ye Ling would do something more overboard. Her ears reddened. Ye Ling lowered his head and stared at her with a dark face. Shen Qianshu had pale skin. Her face was pale, and her cheeks were youthfully pink. Her two ears were reddened, and from his angle, he could see her beautifully pale neck and curly eyelashes, as well as her pale face and cute pink ears.
So cute.
Ye Ling thought.
That's really cute.
His gaze paused, and he looked towards her hands. Slim, tender, and beautiful. Her nails were round and neat, covered in a layer of pink nail polish. She gave very youthful vibes and did not look like a mother.
It instantly felt as if they had returned to seven years ago.
Shen Qianshu was still Shen Qianshu. Yet, he had changed.
How is it possible to get rid of the feeling of a May-December relationship?
What the…!
Shen Qianshu sensed Ye Ling's silence and kept quiet. She lifted her head slightly, and her eyes met his amber eyes. There was herself, small and fearful. Her palms turned warm, and Shen Qianshu let go of her hands as if she was shocked by electricity. For a moment, she did not know where to place them.
Her heart was filled with confusion and fear.
She could not find any comfort.
Ye Ling grabbed her waist suddenly and carried her up easily. Shen Qianshu shrieked, and he threw her onto a long sofa in the study room. He jumped on top of her, and Shen Qianshu was shocked. He lowered his head and kissed her on her lips.
He kissed her passionately and violently. It was familiar yet dangerous. Shen Qianshu was like a person who was about to drown, and she grabbed tightly onto his shirt. Ye Ling pulled up her skirt, and his warm fingers went under it, teasing her wantonly. Shen Qianshu froze and grabbed his wrist, pressing his hand tightly, not allowing him to go any further. Shen Qianshu's eyes were filled with fear, shame, and anger. She wished she could hide in a hole.
"You're wet."
