For Yang Chen’s heartfelt confession and his unabashed protective instinct, Left Envoy Yang felt as if her heart was melting.

Yet, she remained rational.

She wasn’t the kind of woman who wanted to be kept by a man, pampered by a man, untouched by the spring waters of life, leaving her head free of thought; she was more independent, more self-reliant, more willing to put herself first to solve problems.

She needed a man, but she would never completely rely on one.

Sometimes, she preferred to have the ability to protect the man she loved.

This, is who she truly was!

So, Left Envoy Yang slowly shook her head and said, "You are underestimating the Yun family. You’ve only seen Second Young Master Yun’s arrogant demeanor and the Yun family’s lofty attitude because their family’s foundation is truly terrifying, so terrifying that they can disregard the six major families within Ancheng. Therefore, the Cabinet Elders of the Yun family are not something you can contend with. I hope you won’t act foolishly or impulsively do something you shouldn’t."

Yang Chen smiled at Left Envoy Yang, "Don’t worry, I’ll be alright."

"No! Will you listen to my arrangement, please?" Left Envoy Yang’s gaze gradually softened as she looked at Yang Chen and said, "I have an agreement with Second Young Master Yun. It’s not that I will marry him if he breaks through; he has to defeat me. And I’ve also said that defeating me doesn’t mean he can marry me. The person I marry must be an extraordinary hero, which he is not! Besides, he was never my match in the first place. Although my cultivation hasn’t improved very quickly recently, I should still be able to contend with him, so unless absolutely necessary, this is between him and me, and you shouldn’t intervene."

"I should not intervene?" The corners of Yang Chen’s mouth curled up slightly, as dangerously curved as the blade of a knife, "He dares to make a move on my woman, and you want me to stand aside?"

Left Envoy Yang was helpless, "Consider yourself as the finale, okay? Remember when I mentioned the Ancheng Lake event? That was my preparation to deal with him, gathering Ancheng’s talents for a contest. But now, it seems that no one in Ancheng can be his match. Now my only hope is you, so... please wait for my arrangement, okay?"

Having said that, Left Envoy Yang looked at Yang Chen with eyes filled with pleading.

Seeing Left Envoy Yang’s gaze, Yang Chen’s heart immediately softened.

Yang Chen gently caressed Left Envoy Yang’s cheek, whispering, "I have said, you are my wife; as your husband, I am willing to support the entire sky for you. Just one word from you, whether it’s the Nine Venerables or the nine great families, even the Penglai Yun family, I can overturn them for you. If they dare to resist, I will destroy them for you! To me, these are not difficult tasks; just say a word, why make it so hard on yourself?"

Left Envoy Yang smiled faintly and softly said, "I know, I know you are extraordinary. Even now, I haven’t figured out your true identity. Perhaps for others, Ancheng is full of hidden talents, but to me, Ancheng is just a small place for you, a secluded pond; eventually, you will soar high. However, that’s not what I want. I want to understand my true self. Don’t you think it’s very pitiful that even when my parents stand in front of me, I can’t recall anything about them! This is not what I want! The things I have lost, I want to find them myself!"

Seeing the pain flash through Left Envoy Yang’s eyes, Yang Chen’s heart couldn’t help but feel a sudden pang.

He could understand Left Envoy Yang’s feelings, just like the way he couldn’t recognize his own parents. One does not fear the future will be like, but the unknown of one’s past is quite frightening.

When you don’t know where you came from, you don’t know where you’re going.

This kind of confusion is exceedingly terrifying for someone like Yang Chen and Ye Xin, who are highly intelligent and capable; they can do anything but don’t know what to do, which is a kind of endless torment.

"Go and search bravely, I’m here!" Yang Chen’s thousands of words in his heart transformed into this one sentence.

Left Envoy Yang’s face bloomed into a smile as if a flower was in full bloom.

This smile was only revealed in front of Yang Chen.

Left Envoy Yang hesitated for a moment, then took the initiative to reach out and hook her arms around Yang Chen’s neck.

Seeing Left Envoy Yang’s actions, Yang Chen’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat.

"Thank you!" Left Envoy Yang’s breath was as fragrant as orchids as she spoke.

Yang Chen’s heart involuntarily started beating faster and he even felt a bit nervous.

"Meeting you... is the greatest luck of my life." After saying this, Left Envoy Yang lifted her toes slightly and softly brushed her lips against Yang Chen’s like a dragonfly skimming the water.

Yang Chen hadn’t had time to savor that beautiful sensation when Left Envoy Yang had already let go of him. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Yang Chen seemed a little disappointed.

Even more, he felt unsatisfied.

But he knew that Left Envoy Yang being able to express her feelings like this was already a huge step forward.

After all, she was beginning to accept herself again.

Getting the person who originally loved you to fall in love with you again was a strange feeling, but Yang Chen was ecstatically delighted inside.

"How about... I stay here tonight?" Yang Chen looked up and down at Left Envoy Yang, his eyes revealing a hint of longing as he spoke.

Left Envoy Yang’s face turned slightly red, she glared at Yang Chen, but in his eyes, her gaze was alluring and bewitching, "Don’t push your luck, or else you’ll have nothing next time!"

Yang Chen chuckled bitterly, "Alright then!"

"Be careful when you leave, don’t let anyone see you." Left Envoy Yang reminded.

Yang Chen chuckled bitterly, he hadn’t even mentioned leaving, but Left Envoy Yang was clearly sending him off.

"Alright!" Yang Chen had no choice but to prepare to leave.

"Goodbye!" Left Envoy Yang waved at Yang Chen with a smile.

Yang Chen frowned slightly, one foot already stepping out of the floor-to-ceiling window, but then he pulled it back, turned around, and sternly said to Left Envoy Yang, "I hope we never say goodbye again, every time we say goodbye, it’s like a little death to me."

He didn’t want to hear those words because after the incident at sea, he really thought he’d lost Ye Xin, and that frenzy and pain were something only he could understand.

Every time he met with Left Envoy Yang, he never bid farewell when leaving, simply because he didn’t want to say those words, because as long as they weren’t spoken, there was always a chance to meet again next time.

Seeing Yang Chen’s serious and earnest expression, Left Envoy Yang was clearly startled, and it seemed like her heart was being squeezed.

She knew Yang Chen must have searched for her for a long time, she didn’t know what happened before but she understood it must have been painful for him.

So she thought for a moment and said, "Then go, and come back next time!"

Yang Chen smiled lightly at this and said, "Then I’ll come early next time!"

With that, his figure disappeared into the black night.

Left Envoy Yang pondered for a moment, feeling that there was something off about that statement.

Suddenly, she realized something, her face instantly flushed with embarrassment, she stomped her foot, "Rogue! Scoundrel!"
