Chapter 199.2: Older Men Know How to Dote on Ladies Better
The violet irises surged with a silent turbulence within, which faded away in the next instant. “How is Ling Shu?”
“He sustained slight injuries. He was too careless and it will be a lesson for him to be more alert from now on. At least he was smart enough to know where it was safest for him to hide. The rampaging ma.s.sacre you unintentionally committed back then turned out to be a good thing.” Bai Zhi Yan said teasingly.
When he heard that, Lou Jun Yao immediately understood what Bai Zhi Yan was referring to and he asked in surprise: “He went to the Baili Family?”
Bai Zhi Yan nodded and said with a laugh: “The kid from the Baili Family rescued him in secret. That kid is someone who knows to repay a debt and has been thinking how he is supposed to return the favour, but has failed to find a way for so long. This finally gave him an opportunity to make himself useful to you.”
Lou Jun Yao’s lips curved up into a smile. “When the occasion arises, look for a chance for you to go to the White Fens Lands in my stead, to express my grat.i.tude.”
“You can’t be thinking of staying here again and not go back are you? How long did you stay in Cloud Heaven on your last trip? You had not even met up with the whole lot of them when you already came running back here. All of them must be hopping with rage right now.” Bai Zhi Yan glanced at the man and said, his voice tinged with displeasure.
“Of course I will go back. The seal on Mo Jing Yu has been released and he might come awake at any moment, so I am just waiting for the most opportune moment. The instant that guy comes awake, knowing him, he will definitely stir up tumultuous chaos in Cloud Heaven, so I cannot remain here for long. But as the little fox has yet to recover from her injuries, and she isn’t exactly someone who prioritizes safety, I will leave only after she has fully recovered.”
Bai Zhi Yan laughed helplessly. “You are really worrying your heart to pieces for the la.s.s here, when you are always the one that makes everyone worry for you the most.”
Turning the converastion’s topic onto the man, Bai Zhi Yan’s attractive plum blossom eyes then looked smilingly at him. “You still have not answered me yet. Do have have ulterior designs on the little la.s.s! ? Stop trying to deny it. I’ve been immersed in the amorous world for so many years afterall, how could I possibly be unable to see what you’re really thinking…..”
Lou Jun Yao gaze seemed as though he was looking at an idiot, as he said in an indifferent voice: “Since you are able to see, why do you still ask?”
Those words felt so much like an indirect admission.
Although Bai Zhi Yan had been second guessing it all this while and that answer could be said to be something he should have expected, but upon hearing the tacit acquiescence in the man’s response, it still shocked Bai Zhi Yan quite a bit. “You’re really…..”
Bai Zhi Yan just could not describe what he was feeling at that moment.
This was a ruthless and cold blooded man who saw himself to be above all things, where people were always mesmerized by his handsome and graceful looks. But one would only truly come to know just how heartless this man was after having interacted with him, to see that his heart was colder and harder than any icy glacier.
This was linked to what he experienced when he was very young, which came to mold his character to be such. It could be said that he was selfish and merciless, where only two types of people existed in his eyes, people who were either useful or useless to him.
