Seeing Xiao Bing hanging up the phone, Yezi smiled and said, âIt seems that Xiaoxiao is coming. I should go back.â
âWait. What?â Xiao Bing was confused, âYou are my true girlfriend. Why do you try to hide when other girls are coming?â
Yezi rolled her eyes at him and asked in a cute tone, âWhat? Iâm a true girlfriend? So there are other untrue girlfriends?â
Xiao Bing was speechless for a moment. He said with embarrassment, âThatâs impossible. I always live by the moral standard and Iâm faithful to this relationship. I can never turn my eyes to a pretty girlâŠâ
As he was saying so, a nurse opened the door. She walked in with a sweet smile, âHow do you feel after waking up? Do you feel any uncomfortableness? Let me do a simple examination.â
Xiao Bing was totally bewitched by this pretty little girl, who had a baby face and looked so sweet and beautiful.
Yezi instantly pretended to cough, which made Xiao Bing restore his consciousness. âItâs okay. Iâm feeling fine. But I think the examination is necessary.â
Yezi giggled, âWell, I should stop bothering you. And Iâm somewhat sleepy. After all, I have been here for you for a whole night⊠Iâll go back to sleep and Uncle Lei will stay to keep your company. He will come back when Dumbass is here.â
The door was opened again. Dumbass craned his neck and spoke loudly, âIt seems that I came early. I was asking Uncle Lei questions and we were having great fun. Isnât there a saying that good friends regret not meeting each other more often?â
âYour knowledge is chaos. Itâs âgood friends regret not meeting with each other soonerâ.â
âOh, yeah. Sooner, sooner.â
Yezi grinned, âI go home to have a rest with uncle Lei. Weâll come back in the evening.â
âOkay. Have some good rest. I donât want you to be very tired.â
Yezi said in a cute voice, âSave it, I know you are coaxing me with your flowery words.â
Though she said it, she felt like eating honey when hearing those words.
Yezi curiously asked when they went out of the central lobby, âUncle Lei, what did you talk about with Dumbass?â
Seeming vexed, he answered, âHeâs Xiao Bingâs friends? Heâs just so tough and curious about everything⊠He asked me whether it is interesting or not to be a bodyguard, and how many bowls of rice I can eat and how I usually train myself and whatâs the difference between being stupid and being dumb⊠I donât want to see him again.â
Yezi could not help but smile, âI have no idea to help you. Uncle Lei has to come with me these days. The one Brother Xiao offended is no ordinary person. I canât rest assured if someone else comes with me.â
Feeling helpless, Bao Lei sighed.
Yezi knew too well about her uncle Lei. In the Ye Family, he was the second powerful man. Except for Ye Bancheng and Yezi, he would never spoil anyone. He wouldnât even give a damn about Ye Xinyi and her brother. Usually, he was aloof to others and people would be impressed if someone could make him talk more. No matter how difficult Dumbass was, it was obvious he liked Dumbass, since Dumbass could make Bao Lei break his usual rules.
âThe old man is not mad about what happened yesterday?â asked Yezi.
âNo,â answered Bao Lei, âMy lady, donât blame me for telling the truth. In the Ye Family, youâre the only one who can be spoiled by boss that much. The thing between you and bossâŠâ
âI know,â said Yezi, âBut I can never forget the fact that he betrayed my mother. I didnât even know if he was with that women before my motherâs death! If itâs not true, how come she stepped into my home so quickly after my mother died? Forget it; he still has my sister and brother.â
Bao Lei sighed, âI did not mean to talk about it behind his back. Youâre even franker than your mother. Though there is a problem between you and boss, you are purer and more filial than anyone else. Your brother and sister are different.â
âMy brother is a good person.â Yezi suddenly said and realized by saying that she meant that her sister was not kind. She quickly shut up and stopped bringing it up.
In a theater of the eastern section, there were dozens of audiences who were basically all men if one paid attention. They all sat up straight and were very carefully watching the play like students taking a class.
The play was an excerpt from The Romance of The Three Kingdoms. The actors were all in heavy makeup, which made it hard for the audience to know their faces.
One of the actors was playing Zhuge Liang. He was wearing a traditional hat and holding a feather fan, singing the lines of âKill Ma Suâ with the tone Beijing opera, âMa Su, you just said that your mother was over 80 and no one was there to take care of her. After you died, your mother will inherit your salary and food as her pension.â
The player of Ma Su, who was in white makeup and a Beijing Opera robe sang, âThanks, my lord.â
Zhuge Liang pointed at Ma Su and sang, âKillâŠhim.â
Two men stepped forward and were about to take Ma Su. All of a sudden, Zhuge Liang snatched the fake saber from one of them and chopped Ma Suâs head off after he roared for a second. The head fell hard on the stage with a loud sound.
The theater fell into silence. Everyone knew that the East Heaven King was in a bad mood, and whenever he was unhappy, people around him would die. This Zhuge Liang was the East Heaven King, the Paint-face.
There was blood all over the stage. The soldiersâ players were all frightened. But the Paint-face continued, âTake him away. Take him awayâŠâ
âYes, my lordâŠâ Then these men took the body away in a flurry. Soon there was applause.
The Paint-face walked to the backstage and saw a gorgeous woman sitting on a chair. Who could it be except for Ye Xinyi?
She was wearing a revealing back dress. The Paint-face had been staring at her since he walked in. Ye Xinyi stood up and walked up to him. She drew a deep breath and said with despise, âYou killed people again.â
Though she was displeased, her voice was still tempting, so were her eyes.
âWhat happened? You are not happy?â
His eyes were overwhelmed with lust, but he still said as if he was acting in an opera, âBeauty Ye, what do you think of Xiao BingâŠâ
Ye Xinyi suddenly grinned. She put her hands on his shoulders and made him sit on the chair. She stood behind his back and pressed her body against his while rubbing his face. âWhat⊠Iâve never expected that the East Heaven King to be jealous.â
The Paint-face clutched onto the handle so tightly that it soon was broken. Then he sang, âI can kill himâŠâ
âNo, you canât,â said Ye Xinyi in a tempting voice, âbecause if you kill him, Iâll never speak to you.â
The Paint-face stopped singing and spoke normally. But he sounded a bit angry and upset, âYou fell in love with him?â
âNo, Iâll never fall in love with anyone. Compared to him, you are more lovable, because you are more obedientâŠâ
The Paint-face asked in a husky voice, âThen why didnât you let me kill him?â
âThatâs the North Heavenly Queenâs job. You have nothing to do with it. Besides, I have my own plan⊠You saw it last night. My little sister truly has a crush on himâŠâ
âYour sister loves him⊠I donât see the connection. All I care about is youâŠâ
âOf course, I know.â Ye Xinyi gently pressed her face against his face. She seemed to be proud of herself. âThatâs why I told you. Compared with him, you are more lovable. Because you are more loyal than him⊠One day, when I get what I want, Iâll tell others that Iâll marry you,â said she with a bewitching voice.
âHoweverâŠâ There was suddenly coldness, jealousy, and hate in her eyes. âMy father is always partial. We are all his children. Both Ye Tianming and I always outperform my little sister. His little daughter knows nothing but causing him trouble. But no matter what my little sister does, he is always partial to her. She always gains more love from father than Ye Tianming and me. He is always like that since I was a kid. He did this more in recent years. Ye Xiaoxi has everything I have and everything I donât have.â
âSo Iâll take that man from her, and Iâll conquer his heart. I want her to know that the man she loves actually loves me⊠Hahaha⊠And when it comes true, I donât care what youâre gonna do with this Xiao Bing.â

The Paint-face asked gloomily, âAll of what you just said is true? Itâs all because of your sister?â
âIn addition to this, what reason else? Is there anything about him that attracts me? If it were me, my father would never offend North Heaven Queen and Master Hou for me, and he would never allow me to be his girlfriend simply because he saved my life. I know my father too well. For him, marriage has to benefit our family⊠I just donât understand why Ye Xiaoxi can always do what she wants!â
The Paint-face gritted his teeth, âFine; I promise you that I wonât take part in the things between Xiao Bing and the Queen. But if she kills him, I definitely have nothing to do with it.â
âDonât worry.â Ye Xinyi bent down and lowered her head. She put her lips near his earlobe and gently blew in it. Then she licked it and felt his rapid breath. The satisfaction in her eyes was quite conspicuous. âSoon youâll get what you want if you do as what you are told⊠When I get everything, Iâll be your woman, truly.â
