“Upon seeing Jiang Lihan and Xie Qianchuan leave in a hurry, Lin Que also decisively retreated, not wanting to become cannon fodder.
Since the moment Sì Yèhán learned that Ye Wǎnwǎn was actually Niè Wúyōu, he had been sitting in the same spot. From the time the tea turned warm to when it cooled down, from the scorching sun high above to the setting of the western sun, he remained seated.
Jiang Lihan, Xie Qianchuan, and Lin Que were hiding in a nearby corner, whispering to each other.
Jiang Lihan shook his head with a sigh, “Ah, what a tragedy. I never thought that A’ye would also have a day when he’s tormented by love!”
Xie Qianchuan looked worried, “I think this incident has hit him pretty hard. Will he collapse because of it?”
Jiang Lihan nodded repeatedly, confidently saying, “I’m sure he will! I’ve never seen A’ye care so much about any woman before!”
Xie Qianchuan added, “In my opinion, that woman is really heartless. Isn’t she just playing with his emotions?”
Jiang Lihan stared at the distant lonely figure, clicking his tongue, “After this incident, won’t A’ye end up shutting himself off from the world?”
Lin Que, who was nearby, was also very concerned and anxious, saying, “Stop whispering and go up there to comfort Ninth Brother who’s heartbroken! He’s been sitting here all afternoon!”
Jiang Lihan agreed, “Yes, we should definitely comfort him. He’s been sitting here without moving for so long, he must be really sad.”
As the three discussed consoling their friend, who had been emotionally hurt, at that very moment, Sì Yèhán, who had been motionless the entire afternoon, slowly stood up.
When Sì Yèhán stood up and turned around, as the night breeze passed by him, Lin Que, Jiang Lihan, and Xie Qianchuan involuntarily shivered.
“Ni… Ninth Brother… are you alright? Where are you going?” Lin Que asked hesitatingly.
Sì Yèhán lowered his gaze and adjusted the cuff of his black suit. His voice, usually calm and cool, was now as cold as autumn frost, as he said in a low, hoarse voice, “The Niè family.”
Lin Que was bewildered and struggled to react, “To… to the Niè family? Why are you going there?”
After adjusting his cuff, Sì Yèhán raised his head. The gentle indifference in his eyes had turned crimson, as if swept by a violent surge. He spoke slowly, neither fast nor slow, “Notify Jiāng Yán, within fifteen minutes, mobilize all personnel.”
Even Jiang Lihan and Xie Qianchuan were taken aback. Sì Yèhán had become much more restrained since he returned this time, almost like a different person. However, at this moment, he seemed to have instantly reverted to the cold and ruthless Warlord he used to be.
Lin Que was also taken aback, “Go to the Niè family… mobilize all personnel to the Niè family? Ninth Brother, what are you planning to do?”
Ah, heavens! He knew Ninth Brother would be furious about what happened to Ye Wǎnwǎn, but he never imagined things would escalate to this extent.
No matter how hateful that wretched Ye Wǎnwǎn was, she was still Niè Jiè’èr, Niè Wúyōu.
The Niè family was a major force in the independent state, the leader among the four major families. Stirring up trouble at the Niè family’s doorsteps would undoubtedly lead to a world-shaking battle!
Not only Lin Que, even Jiang Lihan and Xie Qianchuan were surprised.
“Is this for real, Ah Yè? Are you really planning to attack the Niè family?” Jiang Lihan stared in disbelief.
Xie Qianchuan frowned slightly, “Ah Yè, calm down. This matter requires careful consideration…”
However, before the two could finish speaking, Sì Yèhán had already taken a step, disappearing into the night.
Xie Qianchuan and Jiang Lihan stood there, looking at each other in shock.
Trapped by love and collapsing from a broken heart? Those were out of the question!
They had all forgotten just how terrifying this guy’s true nature was…”
