A Jiu finally started recounting what happened since she went back that day.
After leaving the villa, she compared the route in her memory and asked for directions a billion or so times, finally making it home by night.
Even though she had already advanced to Martial Master, which was over two realms higher than Ye Chen, she still felt a trace of exhaustion.
By the way: Young Master Fei remembers, the combat power levels are: Mortal, Martial Disciple, Martial Practitioner, Martial Master, Martial Ancestor.
It was not from being tired, but from being hungry.
After cultivating the Wisdom Tide Drunken Dream Art, her appetite increased significantly, and she needed to eat five meals a day.
Yet she had only eaten a little bit in the morning, so she inevitably felt somewhat starved and her energy could not keep up.
Upon arriving home, she searched every room and did not see Young Master.
With no other choice, she could only wait dryly at the doorway.
As a result, she waited like that for a day and two nights, all the way until morning.
In that quiet night, A Jiu curled up on the sofa directly facing the front door, her eyes flickering with earnest hope for Young Master's return.
Whenever a faint sound came from outside, her ears would instantly perk up, yet each time it was disappointment.
Gradually, she began to feel uneasy.
She started pacing back and forth in the house, running to the window to look out from time to time.
Could Young Master have run into something and been delayed?
As time ticked by second by second, anxiety began to surge.
Then, a terrifying thought began to brew: Would Young Master abandon me?
Fear, panic, and negative emotions began to fill the air.
A Jiu had never seen a situation where Young Master did not give notice and stayed away for two days.
In her world, Young Master came and went freely, and nothing could hold him up for this long.
Even though her little brain was not big, she felt this was the only possibility.
Young Master no longer wanted her!
Thinking of this, the torment of being hungry, tired, and terrified made her wail miserably. She cried all night, and when she cried too tiredly, she just curled up on the sofa like that and fell asleep.
When waking up this morning, A Jiu felt for a split second as if the whole world had drifted away from her, helpless and desolate.
What should I do? Are the older sisters not here? What am I supposed to do?
For some reason, that person came to mind.
Although she did not know his name, she felt he was the only person in South City she could trust.
Should I ask him to help me find Young Master?
After crying all night, the feeling of fear was only suppressed a little. Relying on an inexplicable feeling, she came to the hospital.
A Jiu was so hungry she was about to faint, and suddenly seeing that familiar figure who could give her a unique special feeling, her eyes lit up instantly and she lunged forward from behind to hug the other person without even thinking.
"..."
Listening to her finish speaking with a tearful voice.
Although he did not know what kind of nonsense Ye Chen was up to, Young Master Fei knew that Ye Chen could not possibly abandon her at a time like this.
Where did he go, though? Judging by his personality, he might have really gotten himself into some trouble, right?
"A Jiu, don't worry, Ye Chen won't abandon you. He might be held up by some trouble."
"Nothing could hold him up. In the past, Young Master went wherever he wanted, and no one could stop him." Her voice was somewhat choked with sobs.
Young Master Fei thought to himself, this is not your Dragon King Palace; this is Southern Kingdom. He could not guarantee the later stages of the novel, but at least in the early stages there were definitely plenty of people who could subdue him. Ye Chen had not yet reached the plot where his strength advanced by leaps and bounds.
"This place is different from the Dragon King Palace, A Jiu. You are the most loyal to him; could he abandon you? Trust me, Ye Chen won't abandon you!" Seeing that she did not believe him, Young Master Fei could only vouch for him.
"R... really?"
"Really!" It seemed she was truly too afraid of being abandoned, "Even if your young master doesn't want you anymore in the future, you can come find me, okay? I'll keep you."
"But I eat a lot. Young Master always scolds me, saying I'm like a pig and that I'm completely useless and only know how to eat all day long."
Young Master Fei figured she might be a bit sensitive because Ye Chen had disappeared, so he hurriedly comforted her: "It's good to eat all day long. If there's trouble, you don't need to step up, I'll handle it for you. Never mind all that, if you come I will definitely keep you."
"Okay!"
A Jiu finally managed to break into a smile through her tears.
Was it an illusion? For some reason, she agreed quite quickly this time.
Still, this was fine; finding out where Ye Chen was right now was the urgent matter.
Ringing the bell to summon the bodyguards to the doorway, Young Master Fei then went out and instructed them: "Go find a person named Ye Chen and see where he is. He's the one who caused a massive scene at this hospital the day before yesterday, and also the arrogant security guard you guys saw at Gu Corporation the day before that."
"Reporting to Young Master, is it that guy? We know!" a dark-skinned man replied.
"Oh? You guys know already?"
Even Young Master Fei had to admire that these subordinates were competent; they had already finished looking before he even gave the order.
"That guy probably went in. This matter has blown up into a huge fuss and is even a minor hot topic on the local forum. Young Master, take a look." The subordinate handed over a mobile phone with a video playing on it.
Taking it and looking at the mosaics darting all over the screen in the video, Young Master Fei fell silent.
If UC-style clickbait was used as the news headline, it should be: Shock! A young man abandons his guard just to release on the street, and behind all this is it morality...
Seeing Ye Chen throwing punches at the police officers, Young Master Fei was speechless.
What was wrong with this Ye Chen?
Wasn't he cultivating the Thousand Yang Divine Art?
He couldn't even control his chrysanthemum?
And did he harbor some kind of misunderstanding about the police in South City, directly attacking them?
He could act however he pleased in the Dragon King Palace because he was the young master, but here he did not have that status. How dared he be so arrogant?
All he could say was that the Dragon King's thoughts were unpredictable.
Do not try to challenge the Dragon King with one's own understanding.
For a moment Young Master Fei did not know how to react either, so he could only go back and carefully study countermeasures and plans.
"Very good, what is your name?"
"Your subordinate is Zhao Jinfei."
"You are Zhao Jinfei?" No wonder he looked familiar. After Uncle Fu was hospitalized, Young Master Fei had not yet had the time to get acquainted with the new head of security, "Very good, very good. Following me will definitely not leave you short of good things. Go collect half a month's salary first."
"Yes, I swear to go through fire and water for Young Master!"
When playing the villain, anything else could be neglected, but the treatment of subordinates could not be overlooked.
Otherwise it would become troublesome when willpower could not be fully carried out.
Returning to his hospital room, Young Master Fei ignored the female servant nearby who was giggling while peeking at her screen and took another look.
Take another look.
Take another look.
After looking three times, Young Master Fei finally stopped, feeling immensely satisfied inside.
Ye Chen, oh Ye Chen, you have your day too.
In novels.
Ye Chen generally treated women as a kind of tool on his path to success. Although he had some feelings for these tools before he started using them and right when he began, after a long time he would generally cast them aside and go look for new tools again.
As long as it was beneficial to his success, he would figure out a way to get his hands on it; as for anything not beneficial to his success, it could only say goodbye to the world.
After all, the Thousand Yang Divine Art had no need for trash, and Yin Pole translated simply means beauties.
As for men, their status was even lower. The ones with utility were utilized first; the ones without utility either submitted and became lackeys—whom Ye Chen might toss a few chicken bones to if he was in a good mood—or they were all eliminated.
Putting it nicely, this was achieving goals at all costs; putting it bluntly, it was by any means necessary.
Because he had immersed himself as the villain while reading the novel, he really loathed a Dragon Protagonist stallion-novel protagonist like Ye Chen.
Now seeing Ye Chen take a hit, it felt as exhilarating as stepping on a banana peel, slipping, smashing your face into a gold bar on the ground, discovering it was fake, angrily tossing it away, and then bam, hitting an old scammer who had extorted you before!
After silently reminiscing in his heart, Young Master Fei did not forget his mission.
In a twist that was both unexpected and reasonable, Ye Chen got arrested. What about that whole pile of things he was supposed to do?
How was he supposed to carry out the plot he was meant to go through?
