Chapter 534: The Self-Torture Strategy
Ye Xiaoman was haunted by the terrifying male ghost and wished she could immediately turn into a wisp of smoke and disappear into the night.
He should have just found her and hasn't noticed the existence of Jiaying and Yue Mushan yet, right?
Come to think of it, if Ji Wenyi found out that she and Jiaying had been entangled until the early morning, he would definitely not be as friendly as he is now. The small house where Jiaying lived would immediately turn into a sea of fire to kill the snake demon, Yue Mushan would immediately become a dead cat, and of course she would not be spared either. The three of them would be killed and buried together.
Ji Wenyi is now like a plague in Ye Xiaoman's heart. When the emperor is angry, millions of people will die. When the gloomy ghost goes crazy, no one can stop him. The damage he can cause is very large. She has dumped him long ago and tries to avoid him as much as possible.
Ye Xiaoman ran for a while, panting, and found that she couldn't get rid of Ji Wenyi no matter how hard she tried. She simply stopped at the side of the street, turned around and asked him, "What do you want?"
Ji Wenyi, a man who was extremely busy with his daily affairs, actually put everything aside and rushed to the ghost realm for her. You should know that when she was trying to conquer him, this bastard had to review memorials while talking about love, and he had to wait until after a day's work to kiss and hug her. If she fed him a few more mouthfuls of food, he would think she was wasting his time and might as well take the fasting pill directly.
Why? The new emperor didn't stay in the Divine Realm to stabilize the situation after ascending the throne. Wasn't he afraid that those great families would undermine him?
Ji Wenyi held the purple umbrella over Ye Xiaoman's head and said, "The night is long and the dew is cool."
Ye Xiaoman recognized that this was the umbrella she used in the Prince's Mansion.
When she packed up her belongings and left, she left the not-so-valuable umbrella in her storage bag to make room for the palace's gold and silver treasures. Ji Wenyi used it as a prop to remind her of the good times they had together, strolling under the flowers with an umbrella.
As expected of a venomous snake, he is deep-minded and as cunning as ever.
As Ji Wenyi approached, the luxurious incense invaded Ye Xiaoman's breath, "I... I just want to find you and bring you out safely."
Ye Xiaoman said with a straight face: "Now that you have been found, you can leave."
She didn't dare to smile at Ji Wenyi at all, for she was afraid that he would take advantage of her and immediately kneel down to lick her hand.
Ye Xiaoman's rejection did not discourage Ji Wenyi at all.
A smile spread across his narrow phoenix eyes, and tenderness spread like ripples. The indifferent heart of the god beneath his clothes was beating excitedly, and his collarbone was faintly visible with his quickened breathing.
The jade-like back of his hand, tightly gripping the umbrella handle, revealed his emotions, with veins bulging.
He had to exert all his strength to control his urge to hold Ye Xiaoman in his arms.
He first checked her safety with an excited gaze, and scanned her up and down with his spiritual sense, making sure that she had not been harmed from inside and outside in the dangerous ghost world, and then he felt relieved.
…She has upgraded to three heavenly spiritual roots.
She ate his marrow-cleansing grass, and she was still willing to try to accept his kindness, which showed that she was not completely resisting him.
"Abao," Ji Wenyi held his breath and lowered his head, carefully coaxing her, "I'm very worried about your safety. Before the gates of hell open, please stay by my side for the next few days, okay?"
Ye Xiaoman refused. If she hesitated for even a second, she would lose: "No."
"I have no intention of pestering Miss Abao."
Ji Wenyi lowered his eyes, but the spring breeze was still gentle. The back of his hand holding the umbrella moved forward silently. While adjusting the position of the umbrella for her, the back of his hand was like a greedy snake, and its tongue licked the soft hair outside the girl's ear.
"If you don't want to fulfill our old engagement, you can cancel it."
After consulting the imperial tutor, Ji Wenyi mastered some techniques to please girls.
The old tutor said: "A girl with an independent character is like the wind in the fields. How can Your Majesty dream of imprisoning the free wind in a golden cage deep in the palace? The most clever thing to do is to open the golden gate to the spring sunshine, and the moon will come to me without my invitation."
Ji Wenyi retreated to advance, "I just want to protect you."
Ye Xiaoman knew exactly what Ji Wenyi was planning.
He said that he wanted nothing, but the way he looked at her was extremely intimidating, and his aggressive eyes almost stripped off all her clothes.
If she really lived with him, she was afraid that he would take advantage of her in a few days.
What's the point of fulfilling a marriage contract? It's only when there's an obligation that it needs to be fulfilled. When did she even enter into a marriage contract with him? He might have snatched all of Ji Weiming's roles onto himself.
Ye Xiaoman refused to give in: "No need, I have a trump card to protect myself."
"If you really want to protect me, please stay away and don't bother me by appearing in front of me. If I run into trouble, I'll call on you for help."
Ye Xiaoman walked forward with her arms folded, and Ji Wenyi walked side by side with her holding an umbrella.
Ji Wenyi took another step back: "At least let me know where you live."
Ye Xiaoman glanced at Ji Wenyi curiously.
I don't know if this guy has received some training somewhere, but his skills have improved by several levels.
Before she could say anything, Ji Wenyi started playing the victim.
"Just consider that I came all this way. I've traveled all over the world looking for you. I haven't slept in a long time. Even my belt has become much thinner."
Ye Xiaoman was curious: "The ghost world is so big, how did you accurately locate my position? Also, don't be so hypocritical in front of me. It's your hard-working subordinates who are running around and breaking their legs. What have you done?"
Ji Wenyi's Adam's apple rolled under his collar and he laughed softly, "I will disperse my subordinates and take your statue deep into the ten realms of the ghost world to find all the women who look like you."
"Every day, they send back thousands and thousands of images."
"I have to identify thousands of people one by one. To finish seeing them all, I need to endure from the rising sun to the bright stars at night, day after day."
"A Bao, I... my eyes are almost broken at the back of my eyes. I have double vision and need the imperial physician to prescribe a bottle of eye drops every day."
"Until that day, when your figure flashed across the Yellow Springs Ferry, I knew it was you."
Half true, half false, the hard work was glossed over in a joking manner.
Ye Xiaoman didn't know what to say anymore. The other party had indeed invested time and resources and was seriously looking for her.
Ye Xiaoman: "Yeah."
Ji Wenyi: "Why did you go to Huangquan Ferry?"
Ye Xiaoman: “…passing by.”
"Still unwilling to tell me your address in the ghost world?"
Ji Wenyi noticed that her attitude had softened, and immediately took another step forward.
He coughed weakly.
"I'm injured. Let me go to your house to heal my wounds and then leave."
After hearing this, Ye Xiaoman stopped walking and looked at Ji Wenyi carefully. She found that the color of the purple clothes on his chest was darker than other places.
She recalled the scene just now. When Foreman Qiu was suppressed by Ji Wenyi's spiritual sense, he recognized the hidden weapon in the direction where the spiritual sense came from and fought back.
Ji Wenyi was unscrupulous and planned every possible move. He anticipated that she would not be kind to him, so he set up a plan of self-torture early on.
