"Miss Shi, would you like to walk by yourself or should I lead you?" Zhou Zheng walked up to Shi Nian and asked, forcing himself to be brave.
Zhou Zheng sighed as he looked at Shi Nian's pale face.
Of all people to scheme against, why did Miss Shi have to scheme against Bai Lian'er...
Bai Lian'er holds special significance for Fifth Master. He is truly angry this time and will not forgive her easily...
Shi Nian did not move, nor did he answer Zhou Zheng's question.
Her cold eyes stared at Ye Chen. "If you really lock me in the dungeon, you'll regret it."
"Even now, you still want to use the old man as your shield?" Ye Chen's face darkened even more. "Let me tell you, no one can save you this time. If I don't teach you a lesson, you'll always be so arrogant and reckless!"
Shi Nian smiled calmly. "I've said it before, Grandpa isn't my protector, he's yours... But the way you are now disgusts me to the point that even thinking about all the good things about Grandpa makes it impossible for me to tolerate you."
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes, looking at her with a gloomy expression.
He disliked Shi Nian's current appearance.
He had a feeling that if he really punished her, it would have serious consequences and push her further away from him.
"Waaaaah, Brother Ye... I feel so bad..." Bai Lian'er saw that Ye Chen was actually hesitating, and immediately started crying sadly again.
Although she held a higher position in Ye Chen's heart, the fact that this woman could wear Ye Chen's bathrobe meant that their relationship was definitely not ordinary!
She can't let this woman get away with it!
"Zhou Zheng, take her away!" Ye Chen snapped out of his daze and immediately ordered Zhou Zheng to take the person away.
He found his hesitation utterly ridiculous.
Shi Nian's arrogant personality should have been corrected long ago.
He's punishing her now for her own good, so she won't be so reckless in the future.
"Don't worry, Uncle, no matter what you do to me, I won't kill you." Shi Nian's face showed a pure smile, just like before, very clean and beautiful.
Her gaze shifted to Bai Lian'er, her smile sweet and cloying. "But you'd better protect your Lian'er well. I won't kill you, but she... as long as I have the chance, I will kill her."
She can't live without Ye Chen; she needs him to "recharge," so she can't kill him.
But she had no reservations about Bai Lian'er.
Bai Lian'er and Ye Chen killed her together in their past life, and now she's framing her.
She'll remember this grudge.
"Waaaaah, Brother Ye, I'm so scared... Can you just kill her? Otherwise she'll come back to kill me later..." Bai Lian'er shrank back to Ye Chen in fear.
She wanted to get closer to Ye Chen's arms.
but……
Ye Chen instinctively avoided it.
I had to touch her just now to save her.
But now, the moment he sees her approaching, before his brain can even react, his inner repulsion drives his body to pull away.
Bai Lian'er gritted her teeth in anger!
Even though Ye Chen cares about her so much, why won't he let her touch him?
Ye Chen glared at Zhou Zheng and roared, "Didn't you hear me? Take her away right now!"
Zhou Zheng trembled in fright, "Yes, yes, I'm taking Miss Shi to the dungeon!"
He reached out to grab Shi Nian, but Shi Nian turned around and walked forward on her own, saying, "I can walk by myself, I don't need you to grab me."
Zhou Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed behind Shi Nian.
It wasn't until he reached the entrance to the dungeon that Zhou Zheng realized what was happening.
This was Shi Nian's first time here; how could she possibly know where the dungeon was?!
Could it have been Fifth Master who told her?
