Noticing Ye Huan's gaze, Shen Taoyuan's eyes dodged twice, stopped glaring at Jiang Shishuang, and slightly lowered her head, her pretty face slightly red. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Ye Huan rolled his eyes, temporarily ignoring Shen Taoyuan, and coldly looked at Di Yuntian, "Why are you here?"

"Young Sect Leader, I have urgent matters to discuss with you, is it convenient?" Di Yuntian's tone was urgent, as if he really had something important.

Ye Huan frowned slightly, "Let's go."

The two left the villa and went to the courtyard.

Di Yuntian got straight to the point, his expression serious: "Young Sect Leader, may I ask, has the Empress come to Tingxiang Pavilion?"

"Empress? She hasn't come, what's the matter?" Ye Huan frowned and asked.

"Then perhaps she hasn't arrived yet. I used all my strength to rush to the Capital City, logically arriving faster than her."

As Di Yuntian spoke, he shifted the focus and explained the situation: "Young Sect Leader, last night due to some matters, the Empress was slapped by her father, and in a fit of anger she ran away from home, disappearing without a trace. Everyone at Dragon Gate is extremely anxious."

"She has a good relationship with you outside the mountain, so naturally she would come to seek refuge with you."

"Young Sect Leader, I will stay in Capital City for three days. If she comes to Tingxiang Pavilion, please contact me immediately, thank you."

Di Yuntian only mentioned that Dragon Gate is anxious, not that the reason they wanted to dissect the Empress, only after she disappeared did they become anxious!

But Ye Huan, always highly observant, keenly noticed some issues in Di Yuntian's words.

"Getting slapped, feeling wronged is normal, running away from home is a bit extreme, but the Empress is sensible. Once she's calmed down, naturally she'll go home."

"Why did you personally come down the mountain, eagerly wanting to bring her back?"

"How could Dragon Gate become so anxious because of her disappearance?"

These three questions from Ye Huan, each striking the key point.

If it weren't for wearing a mask, Di Yuntian's deeply guilty eyes would be exposed in front of Ye Huan!

Di Yuntian forced a smile: "We... we're just worried about the young lady's safety."

"Are you saying a Celestial God level expert can't even protect their own safety?" Ye Huan sneered, feeling something was definitely amiss!

Di Yuntian was speechless, helplessly clasped his fists: "In any case, once the young lady comes to Tingxiang Pavilion, please notify me. It's not too much trouble, is it?"

"We'll see."

Ye Huan did not agree, leaving a vague statement, returning to the villa.

He's always very shrewd, with something amiss like this, he must investigate thoroughly before making a decision.

Di Yuntian's face looked somewhat ugly, but he didn't say much, his figure flickered, disappearing from where he stood, not far away but hiding in the shadows.

...

"Why are you glaring at me, is it just because I'm a bit prettier than you, have a better figure than you, that you stare at me like this? Don't tell me you, a woman, have some inappropriate thoughts about me!"

"Utterly ridiculous, why don't you look in the mirror before saying that! I'm watching you to figure out what kind of devious plans you're thinking, what you're scheming!"

"What scheming or devious plans? Can't you say something nicer? Ever since the Diamond Queen, you've inexplicably started viewing me as an enemy, what grudge do I have against you?!"

"All vixens have an irreconcilable enmity with me!"

"You're the vixen, your whole family are vixens..."

Tingxiang Pavilion.

After ten minutes of glaring at each other, Shen Taoyuan and Jiang Shishuang finally started an argument, to the point where they almost stood up, teeth clenched, forehead to forehead, cursing at each other, looking like they might fight!

Ye Huan, who had just returned to the villa, saw the scene, his mouth twitched hard, quickly stepping forward to separate Jiang Shishuang, settling her in the chair, and gesturing to Xiao Yuan to pull Shen Taoyuan over to the sofa, pressing her to sit down!

"Calm down! Calm down!" Ye Huan and Xiao Yuan urged, both with dark expressions!

"Ye Huan, I don't want to see her!"

Jiang Shishuang pouted angrily, turning her head aside!

"Ye Huan, I don't want to see her either!" Shen Taoyuan was equally defiant!

"If you don't want to see me, then leave!" Jiang Shishuang retorted!

Shen Taoyuan glared, arms crossed: "You telling me to leave and I'd actually leave, wouldn't that be embarrassing!"

"Alright, stop fussing, speak properly if there's an issue, why the argument!"

Ye Huan said irritably, looking at Shen Taoyuan: "Tell me, why did you suddenly come to me without even a greeting? Don't tell me you were slapped by your dad, felt wronged, anger surged from your heart, ran away and came to me."

"Uh... the situation is pretty much as you said..."

Shen Taoyuan felt quite embarrassed, scratching her head.

Ye Huan's face turned darker, speechless: "What's the actual situation?"

"No big situation, just wanted to live here for a while, you can arrange a room for me, I can pay rent... wait, my money and cards have been confiscated by my dad, if... if it's really impossible, let me be a maid here, is that okay?"

Shen Taoyuan blinked her big, clear eyes, spoke somewhat pitifully.

The reason she came to Tingxiang Pavilion was somewhat like what Ye Huan said, indeed it was due to "feeling wronged," but not because of the slap, rather after parting ways with Ye Huan at Cyan Peak Town and returning to the Shen Family, her father gave her three days to pack her luggage.

After three days, Shen Dahai directly bundled her and her luggage out of the Shen Family, confiscated all her assets, only giving her a ticket to the Capital City, asking her to go down the mountain to find Ye Huan!

Saying: Only when she makes Ye Huan the Shen Family's son-in-law can she return to the Shen Family!

This made Shen Taoyuan really annoyed to the extreme!

But there was no choice, couldn't go home, had no friends outside, and no money to stay in a hotel, previously swore on the ship that it was her last con, after which she'd wash her hands and retire.

By the rules of the underworld, she can't continue to scam, otherwise she'd be struck down by lightning, so with no choice, she and Xiao Yuan wandered around, came to the Capital City to seek refuge with Ye Huan.

"Brother Ye Huan, I... being a maid is fine, Miss isn't good at household chores, just spare a room for us to sleep." On the side, Xiao Yuan weakly said, her words containing a hint of plea.

If Ye Huan wouldn't take them in, they'd have to sleep on the streets, braving the elements.

Ye Huan tapped his finger on the table, his expression became intriguing.

Recently, he had tons of thoughts, suddenly realizing he might need someone skilled in disguise techniques to help perfect the best strategy for dealing with Di Asura's intentional escape "dangerous ideas"!

He had been worried about who to ask, and now that's completely solved!

Shen Taoyuan, right in front of him, is indeed the best candidate!

"You came just in time!" Ye Huan decisively exclaimed with joy.

Ye Huan's reaction made the others at the table have very strange expressions!

Shen Taoyuan and company wanting to move into Tingxiang Pavilion, why are you so happy?!

Could you possibly have feelings for her?!

"Why are you so happy?" Li Luo glared at Ye Huan, suggesting that even if he's happy, at least maintain composure in front of his little wives, otherwise what would they think?

"Of course I'm happy about such good news!"
