Chapter 1426 - Follow me home

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Before Ye Wanwan could reply, Ji Xiuran continued, “Back then, your Fearless Alliance attacked Asura and established a feud. Now, you dared to come to Lord Asura’s territory all by yourself.”

Ye Wanwan: “…”

How am I all by myself? Didn’t I bring Big Dipper, Seven Star, and the Star Destroyer group?

Ye Wanwan automatically looked around her, her expression shifting at once…

I seemed to have… forgotten… about Big Dipper, Seven Star, and the Star Destroyer group?

Ye Wanwan didn’t respond to Ji Xiuran and immediately called Big Dipper.

“Sis Feng… you’re too sneaky and ran off by yourself! Why did you sell us out… Thankfully, we escaped too… Curly wants money from us now… He wants a $10,000 protection fee!”

Soon, Big Dipper and Curly’s arguing and negotiating voices were heard over the phone. After confirming they were fine, Ye Wanwan hung up.

Ji Xiuran’s gaze landed on Ye Wanwan and he couldn’t help but shake his head. “A leopard never changes his spots.”

“Hm…” Ye Wanwan frowned.?What does Ji Xiuran mean?

“You’re still you, just like back then. Although you’ve curbed a lot of the sharpness in your personality, your nature is still bold and daring,” Ji Xiuran said softly.

Ye Wanwan furrowed her brows as she listened. There seemed to be something unsaid in Ji Xiuran’s words…

Before Ye Wanwan could ask about it, Ji Xiuran told Skeleton, “Return to the Ji estate.”

“Hey, wait, take me back to the Fearless Alliance…” Ye Wanwan said.

“Come home with me today.” Ji Xiuran’s tone didn’t allow for objections.

“Huh?” Ye Wanwan’s back grew taut immediately.

Follow him home?

It seemed reasonable for her to go to her fiancé’s home, so Ye Wanwan had no reason to decline and was forced to agree. “Okay…”

Ye Wanwan realized that attending Lord Asura’s conference without Ji Xiuran’s permission seemed to have provoked his displeasure.

It made sense though. This trip was truly dangerous.

However, it wasn’t a fruitless trip. If she hadn’t gone, she wouldn’t have discovered Lord Asura’s similar appearance to Si Yehan or learned such detailed information about Si Yehan of the ancient Si clan.

After a long time, the car entered the Ji district.

The Ji district was named after the Ji family, just like how the Nie family was located in the Nie District of the Independent State. Ye Wanwan had known this for a while.

When Ye Wanwan was about to fall asleep, the car finally stopped.

What greeted her eyes was an estate that was so enormous that it extended beyond her vision. In front of the gates, two stone carved dragons looked vividly alive. Each dragon was dozens of meters long and was overwhelmingly imposing.

Ye Wanwan was rendered speechless at this sight.?The Ji family… probably owns mines, right?!

After Skeleton got out of the car, he opened the door for Ye Wanwan and Ji Xiuran.

Standing in front of the Ji estate, Ye Wanwan felt ashamed of her inferiority. There wouldn’t be any harm if there weren’t any comparisons… She couldn’t understand filthy rich people whose families owned mines…

“Xiuran.”

A young girl walked out of the Ji estate.

The girl had hair that reached her waist and sweet looks with a pleasant demeanor.

When the girl saw Ye Wanwan standing next to Ji Xiuran, her brows furrowed slightly, and she asked, “Xiuran, this is?”

“My friend,” Ji Xiuran answered aloofly.

“Friend?”

The girl was taken aback, even finding it incredulous.

Ever since he was young, Ji Xiuran had never had any female friends. He used to be close to Worriless Nie from the Nie family since childhood, but ever since Worriless Nie disappeared, there had never been another woman by Ji Xiuran’s side.
