Chapter 166: Taste of Soul

Yun Shu was weak, but not to the extent of being ambushed by a single assassin and dying. So who sent this guy? He seems to be really unprofessional… or is this also a bait?

Unsure of the circumstance, Yun Shu decided to see what he came for first, then she would take care of the matter as needed.

Her body slid down on the bed naturally as she lied straight, pulling the girl close to her as she rested on top of her.

“…!!!”

Miao miao felt something was not right, but at the same time, the sudden closeness to the person she has a crush on left her panicked and muddleheaded.

“Shh… don’t make any noise.” Yun Shu’s finger tapped on the girl’s lips as she gestured to her not to make any noise.

Though she felt confused by Miao Miao’s increasing heart beat, taking it as her panicking at the sudden ambush.

’Looks like this girl is scared…’

Yun Shu thought as she slid her hand beneath the pillow and grabbed something, taking it out.

At the same time,

A guy sneakily glanced at the tent door as he stood in front, as if wagering on whether he should go in or not.

He turned his head in front and stared at the entrance for a long time without moving, then, as if he made up his mind, nodded his head and took a deep breath, entering the tent on his toes.

The clothes he wore were simple, he looked like a letter delivery guard, however, his feminine features and exceptionally beautiful face didn’t go unnoticed by so easily even if he tried to cover it up.

Upon entering, the first sight that greeted him was…

An intimate pair of man and woman?

“?”

The guy thought if it was an illusion, he blinked twice, thrice, and again.

Even after he cleaned his eyes to take a closer look, the illusion didn’t vanish.

Is it real? Not an illusion?

For a moment, calmness came in his face as he stood there. But the next moment, the guy walked towards the bed with long strides, grabbing the girl’s hair into his fist tightly as he pulled her off of the man beneath.

“Ah, ah, ahh! What are you doing? Let go!” The girl screamed out in pain, flailing her hands to try and free her hair from the man’s death grip.

However, the grip on her hair tightened even more as the guy yelled at her. “What do you think you are doing to a sick person? You dare to covet a man who has a wife?!”

“I won’t let you take advantage of him!” Bai Yunxian pushed the girl on the floor as he let go of her hair, still fuming in rage.

He didn’t expect to see such a scene even once, not to someone like Yun Shu.

After he heard that Yun Shu was unconscious and fell into a coma due to his serious injury, his heart was in a far greater shock than the one he had when he first received Yun Shu’s letter.

He was mad and furious, but at the same time, heart broken.

Why would Lord Yun, who was so kind and gentle to him, suddenly change?

Why would he send him such a letter after they haven’t been in contact for so long?

Was it because… he found someone else to be with him already? Or was it that from the start, he was only being kind to him just for show?

A lot of thoughts gathered in his mind that he couldn’t find a clue from, the more he thought, the more disappointment showered him.

If it was the case, then what would he do now?

“Lord Yun…”

Bai Yunxian never thought of the time when they would separate, not even for a moment.

Because Yun Shu’s affection and warmth was so sweet, he couldn’t ever think of such ominous things.

His kindness and affection, Bai Yunxian took them for granted… even without knowing if it would come back to bite him later.

All this time, Yun Shu has been protecting him under his wings like a strong shield. In this life, he was the reason why Bai Yunxian was so safe, sound and comfortable till now. Yun Shu made it that way, so that not even a speck of dust could harm Bai Yunxian.

That’s why he didn’t seek any power for himself, continuing to act as a weak little guy who needs other people’s protection, just to seek that warmth.

But what happens once Yun Shu gets bored with him? What if he… abandoned him for the better?

Bai Yunxian had a lot of enemies everywhere, and they came to attack Yun Shu again and again.

Until when would he protect Bai Yunxian? He will eventually get bored of this play and abandon him, because Bai Yunxian knew that Yun Shu loved his family more than anyone, and he wouldn’t hesitate to get rid of things that can harm them.

If so, would he also get rid of him?

“Master, get a hold of yourself. You shouldn’t make assumptions and reach a conclusion like this. I think you should find out whatever has happened before making a decision.” Mo Yan peeked at his expression before spitting out the words finally.

As a demon existing for a long time that no one knew of, Mo Yan saw many things around the world, within humans.

Even though Yun Shu was a despicable guy who forced such a noble pig like him into a contract with such an insignificant human, he understood her nature fairly well.

That was one of the reasons why he stayed put and didn’t pick an unnecessary fight with Yun Shu, doing as she said.

’This human soul is fragrant. I never knew such a pure soul could exist…’

’It must be delicious, all the more reason for me to stay obedient and watch out for her till I get to have a taste of her soul!’
