In Yalan Residence, Ye Xiao lay on a soft reclining chair, while a woman with skin like jade and features as picturesque as a painting gently massaged his temples with her slender jade-like fingers.
Although she couldn't compare to Long Keyue's unparalleled beauty, her slightly voluptuous charm had its own appeal.
This woman was Rui'er, as Ye Xiao would call her.
Despite such an enticing scene, Ye Xiao's mood remained unsettled, muttering complaints under his breath.
The woman remained silent, listening quietly, occasionally voicing her indignation on Ye Xiao's behalf. This kind of compliance was much appreciated by Ye Xiao, gradually immersing him in the atmosphere.
"Young Master Ye, if you hate that Ye Haochuan so much, why not find someone to kill him?" Rui'er pouted, feeling indignant for Ye Xiao.
"I've not sunk low enough to resort to such despicable means!" Ye Xiao replied, frustrated. "Even if I were to kill him, I want to do it with my own hands."
