His gaze toward Yu Ying occasionally flashed with a barely perceptible hint of wariness and scrutiny, as if beneath that facade of loyalty lay a pair of eyes constantly watching.
This subtle contradiction filled Su Jinyun with doubt. Since Yingyi was Yuying's subordinate, why would he do such an unusual thing?
What intricate secrets lie behind this contradictory behavior?
Could it be that this jade figure is not the original jade figure at all, but someone else carefully impersonating it?
Once the thought flashed through her mind, it was like a spark falling into a dry pile of firewood, instantly igniting a raging fire that quickly spread.
This made her increasingly convinced that there must be some unspeakable secret behind this matter.
And she seems to have already touched a corner of the mystery's veil, waiting only to unveil it and see the truth.
In the dark room, Su Jinyun's thoughts were tangled and intertwined like a jumbled mess.
When thoughts run wild like a runaway horse, rampaging through a maze of clues and speculations, one is caught in a fierce and almost manic brainstorming session.
Yu Ying was alone in her simply furnished but oppressive room.
The room was dimly lit, as if shrouded in an invisible haze, and the atmosphere was as oppressive as a deathly still dusk with heavy dark clouds about to pour down.
The oppressive atmosphere felt like a massive boulder was pressing on one's chest, making even the slightest breath difficult and heavy.
It was as if the air itself had been subjected to some kind of heavy magic, solidifying into a thick, viscous block of lead.
Yu Ying's cold eyes were like two bottomless pools of icy water, gleaming with a chilling light.
They resembled two ice blades that had just been drawn from their sheaths, gleaming with a chilling killing intent.
That gaze, filled with chilling coldness and sharp edge, was like an invisible and unbreakable shackle, viciously locking Yingyi, who was kneeling on the ground.
The anger in her eyes was like a raging fire, almost consuming Shadow One completely.
The chill was so intense it could penetrate to the very marrow of Shadow One, causing his very soul to tremble.
The anger in Yu Ying's heart was like a super active volcano that had been suppressed underground for thousands of years and could no longer be contained.
The raging flames surged wildly in her heart like a tidal wave, as if to completely burn away the last bastion of her reason.
She simply couldn't accept this dog who used to be so subservient and obedient to her, like a loyal and devoted dog.
After her master suddenly "resurrected" without warning, she was so audacious as to openly and blatantly begin to monitor her in every aspect.
This act of betrayal was like a sharp blade coated with deadly poison, piercing her heart deeply and mercilessly.
Yu Ying felt her anger surge like a raging tide, one wave higher than the next, churning wildly.
That powerful force almost mercilessly overwhelmed the last shred of her reason.
However, the cruel and cold reality stood before her like a towering, unbreakable, and icy wall.
This plunged her into a state of utter despair.
In the past, she was high above, like a queen who controlled the cycle of life and death, only needing to open her lips slightly to issue a cold command.
He could then order Shadow One to receive the most severe punishment at will, thereby demonstrating to everyone his supreme and unquestionable authority and status.
But now, the situation has changed dramatically, like a sudden nightmare, with everything turning upside down and catching people completely off guard.
This sudden and devastating change occurred simply because Shadow One's true master had returned like a ghost.
This has made even something as simple as getting Yingyi to accept punishment, which used to be as easy as eating a meal, now seem as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Yu Ying snorted coldly, a snort like a howling wind from Siberia in the dead of winter, carrying endless resentment, bitterness, and disdain.
Squeezed out from between her clenched teeth, each breath seemed to carry her deep hatred for Yingyi.
Even though the current situation is like a complex web that tightly binds her, hindering her in dealing with Shadow One's matter.
But how could her stubborn and obstinate heart simply give up and easily swallow this pent-up anger that was enough to burn her insides?
She had already made up her mind to do everything in her power, by any means necessary, to teach Yingyi a lesson.
Only then could she slightly quell the raging fire in her heart, which was burning like wildfire and almost consumed her whole being.
