Chapter 74 Taste it
"Young Master Qi?"

Mother Yan and Ye Wanshu exchanged a glance, "Could it be Miss Yin's?"

Thinking about what happened at the Qi family today, Ye Wanshu's face darkened slightly.

This person is a bit strange. He was afraid that I would meet Chu Yin just now, but now he is chasing me in a hurry. I don’t know what he is up to.

Without rushing to reply to the servant, Ye Wanshu first asked Mother Yan, "Mother Yan has been managing the Yuhua Town business for Grandmother these years. Has she come into contact with Ah Yin? Has her life in the Qi family been going smoothly these past few years?"

Mother Yan thought for a moment and said, "When Miss Yin first married into the Qi family, I did visit her twice. Later, when she became pregnant, Mr. Qi and his mother, Qi Liu, said that Miss Yin needed to rest and take care of the baby and that it would be inconvenient to disturb her. So, I never went back."

Mother Yan knew the relationship between the two young ancestors best, and fearing she might have missed something, she quickly added, "But everyone in the town says that Mr. Qi treats Miss Yin very well and loves her very much."

Ye Wanshu always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out why for a moment. All she saw today was Ah Yin's rejection of her. Could it be that she really felt alienated after marrying into the Duke's Mansion?

"Chunhong, Xingtao, you and Mother Yan take good care of Chu Lin. I'm going to go see this Mr. Qi."

As soon as Ye Wanshu finished speaking, Mother Yan revealed a worried look: "Miss, although he is Miss Yin's husband, we can only know a person by appearance, not by heart. I'd better ask this old servant to call a few more skilled men to accompany you."

"No need," Ye Wanshu shook her head. "Just let Uncle Tian go with me."

If this person really has ulterior motives, mobilizing a large force to go there would inevitably alert the enemy. His adoptive father asked Tingfeng to follow him all the way, but he refused to show up. It's not that he is just here to watch the fun. He will definitely help at the critical moment.

Having made up her mind, Ye Wanshu waited for Uncle Tian to come out and took him out. When they arrived outside, they saw Yu Bai and two guards in plain clothes waiting patiently at the door.

Seeing Tian Fu's strong body, Yu Bai was stunned.

This doesn't seem like she's going to meet her lover secretly. Could it be that Mr. Qi and Miss Ye don't have a deep relationship? Is there a need to be so cautious?
Ye Wanshu had never met Yu Bai before. Seeing him staring blankly at her and Tian Fu, she asked with some displeasure, "Why didn't your young master come to the mansion to discuss things, instead of having to meet me alone?"

"After all, there are some things that are inconvenient to say in the mansion, so I can only tell you, young lady." Yu Bai evaded the question and calmly urged, "Young lady, please follow me quickly, or my master will be waiting anxiously."

"in a hurry?"

Ye Wanshu's heart trembled. These words didn't sound serious at all, as if she and Qi Yunsheng were having something scandalous going on.

Fearing that she might notice something, Yu Bai quickly explained, "My master is very busy with official duties, and it's not easy for him to come out and see you. Please don't ask any more questions."

After saying this, he pushed her onto the carriage and drove away personally.

Before Tian Fu could react, the carriage had already driven out of the peach forest. He was so anxious that he frantically looked for the horses, but when he caught up, the group of people had already disappeared.

A bad premonition arose in his heart, and Tian Fu hurriedly asked Mother Yan to call for help. A group of people followed the direction the carriage left.

Yu Bai drove the carriage very fast. Ye Wanshu sat in the carriage, holding on to the wall with one hand and lifting the curtain with the other hand to look out. She vaguely saw Ting Feng's figure in the jungle, and she felt relieved.

She wanted to see what tricks Qi Yunsheng could come up with today.

The carriage sped along, and after an unknown amount of time, it suddenly stopped. Ye Wanshu lifted the curtain again and looked out, only to see a quiet ancient temple in front of her.

"Why do we have to meet at the temple?" Ye Wanshu jumped out of the carriage, holding up her skirt, and looked at Yu Bai warily.

Yu Bai smiled lightly: "The temple is quiet and will not be disturbed by anyone."

Ye Wanshu thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.

It was really strange that Chu Yin's attitude towards him suddenly changed, and it was really not appropriate to create any more trouble at the moment.

Following Yu Bai to the temple gate, Ye Wanshu was about to step in when Ting Feng's urgent scolding suddenly came from behind her.

"Commander Yu, what is your Prince Yongning's intention? Since he refuses to marry my daughter, why did he trick her into coming to this ancient temple in the wilderness? What is your intention?"

"Prince Yongning? Fu Mingchi?"

Ye Wanshu froze in shock. Just as she was about to retreat, Yu Bai pushed her in. There was a loud bang, and when Ye Wanshu looked back, the temple door was firmly shut.

"You bastard, you actually plotted against me?"

Ye Wanshu cursed inwardly and just as she turned around, she saw Fu Mingchi walking towards her slowly.

It had only been over a month since they parted in Lin'an, but the twists and turns in the meantime had made him feel as if it were a lifetime ago. Now that he saw her again, and she was standing in front of him in good health, his heart, which had been uneasy for many days, finally calmed down.

But the words he heard when he came out just now made him frown slightly.

"Are you really Ji Yuan's daughter?" Fu Mingchi spoke slowly, but his face was obviously surprised.

She had such a quarrel with Ji Yuan just to reject the marriage between the two families, but she never thought that after all the twists and turns, she would still have a dispute with his daughter.

"You're asking even though you already know the answer." Ye Wanshu glared at him coldly, "I never thought the dignified Prince Yongning could be such a despicable and shameless person."

Fu Mingchi didn't think it was shameful at all: "This is the first time I've been so despicable. It seems quite exciting."

"Exciting? Then I'll make it more exciting, Your Highness?"

Ye Wanshu took small steps and slowly walked up to him. She curled her lips into a smile, and her originally clear eyes suddenly became evil and charming.

She stood on tiptoe, gently supported Fu Mingchi's chin with her right index finger, and pressed her raised lips against him without warning.

"..."

Fu Mingchi couldn't believe his eyes.

If she had no choice last time, then this time...

"Miss Ye, are you too anxious?"

“When a sheep enters the tiger’s mouth, it must first take a bite and taste the flavor.”

Ye Wanshu said in a gloomy voice, "Your Highness tricked me into coming here just to seduce me, didn't he?"

Then he could use her as a bargaining chip to establish a relationship with his cheap father.

"Seduction?" Fu Mingchi frowned slightly.

It seemed that what he did was indeed to seduce her, so he couldn't be considered wronged.

"Isn't it?" Ye Wanshu blinked her watery eyes, her gaze sharp and cold. "Or is it that Your Highness is guilty and shy and dares not admit it?"

Fu Mingchi was completely speechless after hearing her sharp words. He could only express his inner feelings truthfully: "You seem to be different from other women."

"Then Your Highness, are you still planning to seduce me?" Ye Wanshu raised the corners of her mouth slightly, but there was a sharpness in her eyes.

Such directness was simply astonishing. Fu Mingchi was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer her.

"That's it."

Ye Wanshu turned around to leave. Fu Mingchi saw everything and couldn't tell whether she was deliberately teasing him or had other intentions.

But thinking about the last time she was drugged and had to escape in the middle of the night, and thinking about the fear he had suffered these days, Fu Mingchi felt an inexplicable panic in his heart and couldn't help but hold her.

"Hook, hook, tell me how to hook?"
