Chapter 108: Ling Ying Silenced by Xun'er – Wu Tian Saves Xiao Yan
Ling Ying felt like he had been struck by lightning.
A deafening boom echoed in his mind.
"No clothes?!"
"BOTH of them?!"
"In a locked room?"
"On the same bed?"
"What… WHAT ARE THEY DOING?!"
At this moment, Ling Ying had only one thought:
My lady… has slept with Wu Tian!!!
Slept with him!!!
Ling Ying's entire body trembled.
A dignified Dou Huang expert, yet here he was
Shaking uncontrollably in the Xiao Clan's courtyard.
His aged face twisted into a look of pure disbelief.
His emotions were in chaos.
He simply couldn't understand
How?!
He had only been gone for one day
And now, his lady had become one with Wu Tian?!
Just yesterday, Wu Tian had treated Xun'er with indifference
Like she was nothing more than an ordinary girl.
And Xun'er, at most, had shown curiosity about Wu Tian's mysterious identity.
And yet
ONE DAY LATER
They were sharing a bed?!
WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY?!
Was his normally intelligent lady truly capable of making such a reckless mistake?!
And what about him?!
If the clan leader finds out… I AM DEAD!!!
Even if Xiao Xun'er's father became a grandfather, that wouldn't save him!
Why?
Because he was still an outsider!
He hadn't even been present when it happened.
He wasn't a witness to their love story
He was just an irresponsible bodyguard who had failed his duty!
Ling Ying felt a chill crawl up his spine.
His entire career his entire life was hanging by a thread!
He stood outside the room, waiting in utter despair.
The two people inside?
Zero concern for him.
They didn't even bother to step outside and say a few words to ease his suffering.
If they had just acknowledged him, he could at least pretend nothing happened and quietly walk away.
But instead
Instead, he heard…
Snoring.
Wu Tian was snoring.
Ling Ying's lips twitched violently.
His body trembled like a leaf in the wind.
This was no coincidence.
This was intentional.
And to make things worse
Xun'er was laughing.
Softly, but clearly.
She wasn't even trying to hide it.
Ling Ying clenched his fists.
I am a Dou Huang!
A Dou Huang should not be forced to endure this humiliation!
But what could he do?
He stayed outside, suffering for an eternity
Until finally
A voice came from inside.
"Haaah~ Xun'er, wait here for me. I need to step out for a bit. I'll be right back."
Wu Tian's voice was filled with casual affection as he patted Xun'er's head.
Xun'er beamed at the touch.
A warm, fuzzy feeling exploded in her heart.
She loved this.
Completely satisfied, she nodded sweetly.
The door opened.
Wu Tian walked out.
And Ling Ying…
Appeared instantly in front of him.
Like a vengeful ghost.
Wu Tian barely even looked at him.
"I'm not here to talk to you. Your lady is inside."
And with that, he stepped past Ling Ying without a care in the world.
Ling Ying didn't move.
Without Xun'er's orders, stopping Wu Tian wasn't his job.
Instead, he took a deep breath
And entered the room.
Inside, Xun'er was already dressed.
Her calm expression was completely at odds with the chaos in Ling Ying's heart.
His mouth opened and closed several times before he finally managed to speak.
"Miss… you…"
"I'm fine," Xun'er interrupted with a gentle smile.
"Brother Wu Tian is someone I can entrust my life to.
If my father knew, he would agree as well."
Ling Ying: "..."
She paused, then added,
"I hope you will keep this a secret."
Ling Ying's soul nearly left his body.
At this point, he had no choice but to nod.
If he reported this to the clan leader, he would be executed for neglecting his duty.
Keeping quiet was the only way to survive.
Ling Ying sighed heavily.
He could already foresee years of suffering ahead.
Whenever Wu Tian and Xun'er got intimate, he would have to step aside.
Which meant…
More free time.
More time off.
More drinking…
More leisure…
…
Actually…
That didn't sound so bad.
…
Meanwhile
Wu Tian made his way to another room.
Xiao Yan's room.
He had already been here once before.
And now, while Xiao Zhan was busy with clan meetings, he had returned.
There were no guards outside.
Why would there be?
Xiao Yan was just a useless young master now.
No one in the Xiao Clan cared enough to guard his door.
Wu Tian easily pushed it open and stepped inside.
He closed the door behind him.
A gentle, kind smile appeared on his face.
Of course, he wasn't here to kill Xiao Yan.
That would be too boring.
Instead
He was here to wake him up.
Because Xiao Yan was more fun when he was awake.
Stepping to the bedside, Wu Tian gazed down at the unconscious young master.
He sighed dramatically.
"Ah… I can't believe you passed out again.
Your life is truly tragic, Xiao Yan.
But fortunately… I happened to acquire a Golden Wound Pill at the auction.
This should wake you up immediately."
As he spoke, he pulled out a small jade bottle.
Inside
The Golden Wound Pill.
His words weren't meant for Xiao Yan.
They were meant for Yao Chen.
Inside the ring, Yao Chen was silently listening.
This "mysterious guest" of the Xiao Clan…
Why was he helping Xiao Yan?
And why was he willingly using an expensive pill to do it?
This made no sense.
But Yao Chen didn't have time to figure it out.
For now
He could only watch.
Because he was trapped.
He had no knowledge of the outside world.
The Xiao Clan was a well
And he was a frog sitting at the bottom, unable to see beyond it.
Stuck in this tiny, confined world, he had no idea how the outside had changed.
All he could see was Xiao Yan.
All he could hear were children's voices.
His mind…
Had regressed.
To what extent?
Well
Whenever Xiao Yan reached out to touch a young girl's hand…
Yao Chen got excited.
His blood boiled.
His heart raced.
He… felt the thrill.
