Chapter 966: Wasn’t There No Such Person?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After confirming that Xiao Yuan was unconscious, Ming Ye slowly bent down and fed her a pill that could knock her out for several hours. Then, he stuffed her into the rockery.
After doing all this, Ming Ye went to the small courtyard in the bamboo forest.
The afternoon sun was slightly blazing, and fine golden threads fell on the deep bamboo leaves. As the wind moved, the bamboo forest made a rustling sound.
Seeing that they were getting closer, Ming Ye did not know why, but he felt an inexplicable nervousness in his heart.
During this period of time, he had thought of many things. Perhaps he liked Su Wan a little.
When he learned that Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng had died in the car accident, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He almost felt as if the sky had turned dark.
However, when he heard that Su Wan was not dead, coupled with the fact that the high priest was under house arrest and then rescued, Ming Ye had guessed that Jiang Xuecheng was also alive.
He had never thought of doing anything to Su Wan, let alone pursuing her.
However, if Su Wan could be happy, he would be relieved.
…
Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng were like an inseparable painting.
Ming Ye was not jealous of the man who was extremely similar to him and had only glanced at him a few times. Perhaps it was good to have such a person to take care of Su Wan.
Ming Ye never felt that he had the ability to love someone. If he could see Su Wan’s happiness from afar, that would be enough for him.
Ming Ye followed the edge of the wall and deftly avoided all kinds of detectors. He directly jumped over the wall.
He lightly jumped into the courtyard.
There was no one in the courtyard. On the simple stone table, there were only two cups of cold tea.
Was Su Wan upstairs?
Ming Ye frowned slightly. He looked at the upstairs window and could not see whether there was anyone inside or not.
Was Su Wan really here?
Ming Ye suddenly regretted that he did not ask anyone else.
In fact, Xiao Yuan did not lie to him. This was indeed Su Wan’s courtyard.
However… Ming Ye came at a bad time. Su Wan was called out by Fiennes fifteen minutes ago.
Ming Ye hesitated for a moment. Since he was already here, he would not give up just like that. He simply walked straight in.
Looking at the interior decoration and various decorations, it indeed looked like a woman’s residence. However, it was empty inside. Not a single person could be seen.
Did Su Wan go out to do something?
After spending a few minutes, Ming Ye went through this small courtyard.
However, he still found nothing.
Perhaps, from the beginning, the person dressed as a maid had lied to him?
Ming Ye’s frown deepened, and a deep crease appeared between his brows.
He might as well ask someone else!
…
Ming Ye walked out of the courtyard. After walking for a few meters, he saw a team of uniformed guards.
Ming Ye narrowed his eyes and immediately dodged to the side, hiding in the cloister.
However, he didn’t expect to b.u.mp into someone’s body in such a short time.
“Hey, who are you? Don’t you have eyes when you walk?!”
A delicate voice sounded with a hint of anger.
This voice sounded a little familiar!
Ming Ye was stunned and immediately glanced at the other party.
In an instant, their eyes met.
An unusually bright and moving young girl appeared in Ming Ye’s eyes.
It was a girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old. Her dress was embroidered with red peach blossoms and she was looking at Ming Ye with her arms crossed.
The girl was pet.i.te, and her amber eyes were as bright as the stars. There was a hint of youth in them.
It was the eldest daughter of the Siswell family, Diya.
…
This face was also a little familiar…
Ming Ye’s jade eyes deepened, but he could not figure out who she was.
Although Ming Ye’s memory had always been good, he had always been too lazy to remember unimportant people.
However, Diya’s scolding just now had naturally attracted the attention of the patrol guards.
Just when they wanted to come over and take a look, they saw Diya grabbing Ming Ye’s wrist as if she had found an acquaintance!
“It’s you, it’s you, isn’t it?”
That day at the banquet, she and a waiter had encountered an elevator malfunction. Although Diya had completely forgotten Ming Ye’s ordinary appearance after he had modified it, she still remembered Ming Ye’s eyes deeply.
That pair of jade demon eyes was really too unique!
It was unforgettable!
…
Diya spoke without thinking. She stared into Ming Ye’s eyes. Her amber peach blossom eyes were filled with surprise and were exceptionally dazzling and moving!
Those patrolling guards were watching Diya and Ming Ye from afar. Although they could not see Ming Ye’s face clearly, they could see that their young miss was so excited. He must be someone she knew.
Hence, they walked away.
Ming Ye was alarmed when he saw the patrolling guards approaching. He almost wanted to take Diya as a hostage!
Ming Ye’s judgment was not bad. Seeing that Diya was dressed so exquisitely and her jewelry looked expensive, he immediately determined that she was a n.o.ble lady with a high status.
At the very least… She should be the beloved concubine of some n.o.ble son…
Seeing the patrolling guards leave, Ming Ye heaved a sigh of relief.
He stared at Diya without blinking. His jade eyes were so deep that it was hard to guess what Ming Ye was thinking at that moment.
“You know me?”
…
Seeing Ming Ye’s coldness, Diya was subconsciously disappointed.
In fact, Ming Ye had changed his appearance, but his eyes did not have any modifications.
Diya had always been a fan of appearances. She did not understand why she would remember such a deep impression of a man who did not look outstanding at all.
Was it because he had saved her life?
But this man had to act as if he did not know her!
Diya had always been conceited about her beauty. This was the first time she had questioned her own charm!
“Have you forgotten? I am the eldest daughter of the Siswell family, Diya. That day in the elevator in the Sky Garden, you saved my life. At that time, I wanted you to look for me. You…”
Diya suddenly could not continue!
Wait!
At that time, this man’s ident.i.ty seemed to be a waiter in the Sky Garden. Why did he suddenly come to her house?
Didn’t Fiennes say that there was no such person?
Could it be…
In a split second, Diya thought of a possibility. She was even more excited as she grabbed Ming Ye’s wrist.
“Did my brother Fiennes find you and then let you come to our house?”
When Ming Ye heard Diya’s words, he suddenly remembered who the girl in front of him was. However, his focus was not on the elevator accident, but on the name Fiennes!
Ming Ye’s eyes suddenly turned cold. For a moment, he even forgot to move Diya’s hand.
“Fiennes is your brother?”
Diya was stunned. She did not understand why Ming Ye was looking at her with such a cold gaze.
She nodded her head in confusion.
“Yes, what’s wrong?”
Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly felt that Fiennes had hit her hard. Then, Diya felt dizzy and fell to the ground with blackened eyes.
