Chapter 8
Jiang Mohan's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he just stood quietly at the door, staring at Ye Ling'er without turning his eyes.

I have to admit that no matter how fearless Ye Linger pretended to be, she was also frightened by Jiang Mohan's appearance at this moment.

She swallowed, and explained somewhat helplessly:

"I... I came to ask you for a jade pendant."

Jiang Mohan still stared at her, neither speaking nor moving.

Ye Ling'er had an illusion that she would become Jiang Mohan's food in the next moment.

"I...I want to go back and see Grandpa. They said that you need a jade pendant to go out."

A black shadow flashed in front of her, and Ye Ling'er felt her neck being strangled by a pair of hands.

"What have you seen here?"

Jiang Mohan's voice was light and ethereal, like the King of Hades who came out of hell, and Ye Linger was sweating profusely.

Although Jiang Mohan didn't use his fingers hard, the feeling of being on the verge of death became clearer and clearer.

Ye Linger only felt a gust of wind blowing by, and then her head was extremely clear, and a sentence kept circulating in her head:
He won't kill me, he wants something from me.

Thinking of this, Ye Linger opened her eyes and looked directly at Jiang Mohan without blinking.

"I didn't see anything, I just came to ask you for a jade pendant."

Hearing Ye Linger's firm words, Jiang Mohan was stunned for a moment.

He stared at Ye Linger closely for a long time, and finally let go of his fingers.

Ye Linger breathed a sigh of relief when the strange feeling on her neck disappeared. She clenched her fists and raised her head to make herself look calm.

"According to the rules of human beings, after getting married, the husband must accompany his wife back home. I have been married for several days, and it happens to be the day back home, so..."

bang bang...

Before Ye Linger could finish speaking, there was a sound from the desk behind her.

The words in her mouth were suppressed abruptly by her, her lips moved, and she chose to remain silent.

The two stood in front of the desk for a long while before Jiang Mohan looked away and spoke unnaturally.

"The jade pendant is on the desk, go back by yourself."

"it is good."

Ye Ling'er felt relieved, grabbed the jade pendant, and ran out of the study like the wind.

Looking at her back, Jiang Mohan narrowed his eyes.

Back home?

Humph.

How could he accompany a human being to do those boring things.

but……

Husband?
Heh~ Human beings really can't tell the difference, how can she call her husband?He is a majestic king.

At this moment, Jiang Mohan overlooked one thing: just now, he gave Ye Linger the jade pendant because of her words of "husband".

After Ye Linger left, Jiang Shen leaped down from the roof.

"Your Majesty, do you need a slave to follow her?"

Hearing this, Jiang Mohan's eyes were full of disdain.

"No, she is just a mortal and cannot pose any threat."

"Yes."

He looked ahead with a mocking smile on his lips.

And that mortal woman, who was no threat to him, was so excited that she walked a lot faster.

Ye Ling'er felt that Jiang Mohan didn't go back home with her, which was exactly what she wanted, and she wished Jiang Mohan wouldn't accompany her back.

She went back to the dormitory, found a light yellow dress and changed into it, explained to Mengzhu, and then walked towards the palace gate.

She didn't bring anything.

She came empty-handed when she came, and empty-handed when she returned. She believed that Ye Yuanzheng would not want gifts from the Snake Clan either.

With Jiang Mohan's jade pendant, Ye Linger went out of the palace very smoothly. Ye Linger stood outside the palace gate and took a good look at the road.

The two sides of the road are not like the night she married in. The current path is only a row of stones as a guide except for a piece of weeds. Occasionally, some water flows down the trunk.

Ye Ling'er couldn't help being speechless, it really is the place where snakes live, it's cold and humid.

When she returned to Wolong Village, she was taken aback from the distance.

In Wolong Village, there were white flowers and banners hanging everywhere, and Ye Linger's heartbeat slowed down by half a beat, and she ran faster.

She is not afraid of anything, except that something will happen to Ye Yuanzheng. Everything she does is for the safety of Ye Yuanzheng.

Along the way, there were endless wailing and crying, and Ye Ling'er couldn't care what was going on around her, so she ran towards the house without stopping.

Ye's courtyard was as deserted as if no one had ever lived in it, and Ye Ling'er suddenly felt a little heavy on her feet.

From outside the door to Ye Yuanzheng's bedroom, the short distance seemed to have exhausted all of Ye Linger's strength.

As soon as she walked to the door, Ye Yuanzheng's voice came from the bedroom, "Is it Ling'er?"

In an instant, Ye Ling'er burst into tears without warning.

But it was only a few days later, it seemed like she hadn't heard Ye Yuanzheng's voice for a long time.

She ran into the bedroom with her skirt in hand, and threw herself into Ye Yuanzheng's arms.

"Grandpa, you're still here."

This was Ye Linger's rare coquettish behavior, Ye Yuanzheng was stunned, and then raised his hand to caress the top of Ye Linger's head.

"Whatever you say, where will you go if grandpa is not around?"

Only then did Ye Linger realize that she had said something wrong, she wiped away her tears indiscriminately, and smiled like a fool at Ye Yuanzheng.

She knew that the snake tribe didn't welcome her, so she simply stayed in Wolong Village for several days.

In the past few days, she took care of Ye Yuanzheng every day, until Ye Yuanzheng was able to get out of bed, walk, eat and drink normally, and then she put her hanging heart into her stomach.

On this day, she and Ye Yuan were sitting in the yard to enjoy the shade, when she looked down and saw the bracelet on her wrist, her long eyelashes trembled.

"Grandpa, how long has this bracelet been with me?"

"This bracelet has been with you for a long time. It has been with you since you were born and has never left you."

"Grandpa, does this bracelet have any special abilities?"

As soon as Ye Ling'er finished speaking, the smile on Ye Yuanzheng's lips disappeared instantly.

Ye Ling'er stared at Ye Yuanzheng closely, seeing the change in Ye Yuanzheng's expression, she pulled Ye Yuanzheng's hand excitedly.

"Grandpa, do you know something?"

Ye Yuan was staring at the front in a daze, and only sighed after a long time.

"Alas... this was originally a secret of the Ye family. No one has ever known it, and it has been buried for many years. I am not going to tell you, but you are different now. There are some things to tell you. You should be prepared. a good thing."

"Grandpa, tell me, I'll listen."

Ye Yuanzheng stood up, took Ye Ling'er to the Ye Family Ancestral Hall, motioned for Ye Ling'er to kneel down, and then spoke slowly.

"This is a bracelet handed down from the Ye family, when it was handed down, I don't know, I only know that this bracelet is very old.

The Ye family has been mages for generations. I heard that this bracelet was given to an old man of the Ye family by heaven. It has great power, and only the eldest daughter of the Ye family can open it.

Counting from me up, the Ye family has been male for generations, and you are the only eldest daughter.

Other than that, I don't know anything. "

Ye Ling'er couldn't express how she felt in her heart, she only knew that her heart was surging.

A thought popped out of her head in a strange way:

Could it be that she and the King of the Snake Clan were destined by heaven?
