Chapter 142

If nothing unexpected happens, Yao Shi must be bursting with anger by now.

"It's better to face it sooner rather than later."

After hesitating for a few minutes, Wu Liang pressed his finger down heavily.

Take life and death lightly, and fight if you disagree.

Moreover, he was in the wrong this time, so he had nothing to say in his defense.

"Young Master."

A brief notification tone followed.

A clear, gentle female voice came through the receiver.

Unmoved by warmth or joy, as solid as ice.

"Well, I need to explain what happened earlier to you first."

Wu Liang's heart trembled upon hearing Yao Shi's voice.

His voice trembled slightly, as if he had done something wrong.

He didn't know why he felt this fear of Yao Shi.

He found it difficult to describe this feeling.

If I had to put it in a way, it's a bit like the feeling of running off to cheat on your wife and getting caught.

In short, he was extremely anxious and uneasy.

He was afraid that Yao Shi would scold him severely at any moment.

"Please speak, young master."

The indifferent female voice was devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

Wu Liang did not detect the dissatisfaction and anger in Yao Shi's words.

But this doesn't mean anything; Yao Shi has always had this cold attitude.

Whether she is angry or furious, Yao Shi never shows it on her face.

Therefore, he cannot let his guard down yet; Yao Shi may have already gotten angry despite his calm voice.

"Yes, I see you made a lot of phone calls."

"I didn't answer because I had fallen asleep and accidentally put my phone on silent."

"I was so sorry that I made you worry when I woke up."

Wu Liang tried his best to recount to Yao Shi what had happened at Ye Luotong's house.

Of course, there are some things he still can't reveal completely.

For example, getting drunk, or sleeping in the same bed with Ye Luotong.

Although the exact details of the matter are unknown, it is certainly related to him.

Wu Liang knew very well that Ye Luotong was not the kind of woman who acted casually.

Indeed, he was Ye Luotong's student, but he was still a normal man despite being a student.

Moreover, Ye Luotong would never sleep peacefully beside him with her clothes disheveled and completely unguarded.

So something must have happened during this process.

It was because of him that Ye Luotong and he were intimately embracing.

After all, he had touched something as fragrant and soft as a pillow after he fell asleep.

And he held her tightly in his arms, refusing to let go.

Oh, God...

Thinking about this, Wu Liang couldn't help but sigh.

At that time, he definitely regarded Ye Luotong as a pillow in his dreams.

No wonder Ye Luotong slept next to him in such a disheveled state.

That's obvious, isn't it? He was clinging to the other person's body like an octopus, rubbing his face against them.

It would be a miracle if Ye Luotong managed to escape from his arms.

However, Wu Liang was still somewhat surprised that Ye Luotong did not beat him up for it.

Judging from Ye Luotong's usual stern demeanor.

Even if he doesn't get beaten up, he'll still get slapped a couple of times.

However, Ye Luotong did nothing at the time, but quietly fell asleep beside him.

This is fucking illogical. (Wu Liang internally flipped the coffee table.)

"I understand, young master. There's no need to apologize. This is your prerogative, Yao Shi has no right to interfere."

"I only made the call out of concern for you, young master. Please don't take it to heart."

"So, young master, where are you now? Would you like me to send someone to pick you up?"

Yao Shi's voice remained devoid of any joy, but also showed no sign of anger.

It was as if they were talking about a trivial matter.

"No need, I'm on my way back now."

"I'll be going back soon, and I'll explain everything to you when I get back."

Wu Liang breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Yao Shi's response.

It would be best if Yao Shi could ignore this matter.

But it's not a big deal.

I just took a nap at my teacher's house with my teacher.

Yao Shi wouldn't get angry over something so trivial.

"That's all for now, I'll hang up now."

After disconnecting from Yao Shi.

Wu Liang felt his previously uneasy mood brighten considerably, and his heavy body felt much lighter.

"Let's go back quickly."

Upon learning that Yao Shi was not angry, Wu Liang finally felt relieved.

Go back and apologize properly. It was his own fault that made Yao Shi worry for so long.

It would be somewhat unreasonable not to apologize in person.

Bang!

Suddenly, a person emerged from around the corner ahead.

While Wu Liang was still thinking about something, he collided head-on with the other party.

The other person was knocked to the ground by the force and cried out in pain.

Wu Liang, however, remained motionless, standing in place like a rock.

The difference between the two forms a stark contrast.

"I'm so sorry, I was just thinking about something..."

"Hmm? Mr. He Feng?"

Wu Liang looked at the middle-aged man lying on the ground and asked in confusion.

The man who suddenly emerged from around the corner was none other than He Feng I had just met a few days ago.

"Hey? Wu Liang? What are you doing here?"

Another puzzled female voice rang out from around the corner.

A simple red collared casual top and a pure white floral skirt.

He Xue, wearing black leather boots, froze on the spot.

Why would Wu Liang appear in a place like this?

"He, He Xue?"

Wu Liang looked at the father and daughter in front of him and immediately felt a sense of foreboding.

Things seem to be getting complicated...

Chapter 90: Mutual Speculation

Beep beep beep beep

I could hear the disconnected call.

Yao Shi silently looked at the phone in her hand.

"What did the young master say?"

Milutin looked at Yao Shi, whose expression remained calm, and asked her in a low voice.

Since the young master has already taken the initiative to call and explain...

This means that the young master didn't actually encounter any trouble.

"It's nothing, the young master just fell asleep and didn't answer the phone earlier."

"And my phone was on silent, which is why I didn't receive your calls."

"Everyone, don't worry, the young master is on his way back now."

Yao Shi spoke calmly, without a trace of emotion.

He glanced at Milutin and Yao Qing beside him.

She put the key she had taken from Milutin back on the table and returned it to her.

"See what I said before? I told you there was no need to worry about the young master."

Milutin shrugged and sat down on one side of the sofa.

She had already guessed that nothing would happen, but Yao Shi was still worried.

She was just going to her teacher's house for some extra lessons, but look how anxious this girl is.

Do they really treat the young master like a three-year-old child, needing them to take care of everything?

"What else did the young master say to you?"

Yao Qing squinted as he sized up his younger sister.

Although he hid his sister very well, he still couldn't hide it from her eyes.

Yao Shi's face remained expressionless, and she appeared very calm.

But there were other emotions hidden in the girl's eyes.

It's somewhat like dissatisfaction, or displeasure, and even a hint of resentment...

"The young master didn't say much, he only said that he had taken a nap earlier."

"There's no need to ask any further questions. The young master will be back soon, and it's about time he instructed the kitchen to prepare dinner."

Yao Shi ignored Yao Qing and left the hall directly.

She didn't tell them the whole truth because it wasn't something she cared about.

Even if they knew, those two wouldn't be very interested in it.

But it was different for her; she was very concerned about what had happened to the young master.

Click...

A faint sound arose beside Yao Shi.
