Chapter 883: Ye Ying Is Taunted
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Therefore, Shan Yue did this to investigate if there were any suspicious people around and ensure that all his subsequent actions would not be betrayed at a critical moment.
“I’ve already said what needs to be said, and the mission has been a.s.signed. If there’s no problem, everyone, do as you’re told.”
Everyone left the hall one after another and completed their mission according to Shan Yue’s instructions. At the end, Chang Ling’s coy actions attracted the attention of Shan Yue and Ye Ying. It was obvious that he still had something to say, but he was very conflicted.
“Chang Ling, stay for a while.” Shan Yue immediately smiled and stopped him. This thought could not escape Shan Yue’s sharp eyes.
“Now that they’ve all left, there’s only the three of us left in the house. If there’s anything difficult to say in front of me, you don’t have to hide it anymore, right?” Shan Yue pointed it out directly. After all, she had never been a person who liked to waste time. “Could it be that you still have to hide something from me and Ye Ying?”
Although Ye Ying didn’t say anything, he was also very curious. What could make Chang Ling, who had always been straightforward, stutter like this?
“P-President Shan, how did you know that I’m hiding something from you?”
Chang Ling raised his eyes slightly, knowing very well that he could no longer hide it.
“You’ve been by my side all this time. Don’t I know what kind of person you are?” Shan Yue’s words were filled with confidence. She knew many unrelated people very well, let alone the people around her.
“Actually, it’s not a big deal. Since you asked me to say it, I’ll say it directly. If the boss beats me up, you have to stand on my side and help me.”
A strange smile appeared on Chang Ling’s face, making the two of them even more curious.
“Just now, when I was ordered to bring people to cooperate with Sect Master Cang to restore their corps, 1 accidentally saw a piece of paper on her office table. On it were the names of Cang Xin and Boss.”
Chang Ling paused for a moment. “And the content is very simple. There are only two short lines of poetry. “Your bright pearls with two rows of tears I’m returning, instead. I only lament we had never met before I wed.
“What’s even stranger is that when Sect Master Cang noticed my gaze, she clearly panicked. She immediately balled up the paper on the table and threw it into the fire, as if she was guilty and avoiding something.”
“You’re wrong. This isn’t avoiding something. That piece of paper must have been left behind when she fought Jiang Huai to the death. To put it more bluntly, it’s Cang Xin’s last words.”
Shan Yue immediately understood everything. After all, she was also a woman and knew the meaning and allusion of this poem. How could she not guess what Cang Xin was thinking?
“These two lines of poetry are Cang Xin expressing her feelings for Ye Ying.” Shan Yue looked at Ye Ying beside her with a wicked smile. “I was indeed rash in this matter. Chang Ling probably wanted to tell you in private when no one was around. I spoke too much.”
This time, it was Ye Ying’s turn to be at a loss. “That’s impossible. I haven’t had much contact with Cang Xin for so many years. Why did such a result suddenly appear?” If it weren’t for Chang Ling’s words, Ye Ying definitely wouldn’t believe it. “There must be a misunderstanding. Don’t spout nonsense.”
Shan Yue looked at Ye Ying’s trembling lips and smiled. Ye Ying was a few years older than her and was at the age where he should be dating. If it was really suitable, it would be a good thing for him to have more experience.
“It’s written in black and white. No one is going to interfere with your choice between the two of you.”
Shan Yue did not take these things seriously and smiled very easily. “Besides, as soon as you leave tomorrow and the mercenary group is burned, Country H will no longer have any suppressing forces. Jiang Huai will also be removed by us overnight. In this way, won’t Cang Xin be the only remaining large faction? It’s also beneficial for us to be on good terms with Cang Xin..”
