"Of course not. My phone broke before, and I couldnât find your number. And I felt too embarrassed to go to the Situ Family to look for you," Ye Luo said awkwardly.
Situ Luoyun gave Ye Luo a charmingly reproachful look with her phoenix eyes and then said, "Was it you who injured Situ Wentian?"
"Yes," Ye Luo answered succinctly.
With a flash of intrigue in her eyes, Situ Luoyun looked at Ye Luo, "Youâve become so much stronger since the last time we met."
"Of course, how else could I take care of such a delicate bloom like you?" Ye Luo joked.
Situ Luoyunâs face turned red, and she glared at Ye Luo. "But youâve seriously injured Situ Wentian this time, and Situ Yunchao is furious. Even my grandfather is in a bad mood. If they find out it was you, they will definitely come after you."
"It doesnât matter. If they foolishly decide to come at me, then they canât blame me for what happens. But for your sake, I wonât kill them."
Ye Luo said this with a nonchalant expression, as if he had no fear.
"You... When did you ever say such things? Do you know that Situ Yunchao has already advanced to the Saint Realm and my grandfather is even at the sixth level of the Saint Realm? How could you possibly stand against them?" Situ Luoyun asked, full of concern.
Ye Luo gave her a mischievous smile, "Donât worry, your man isnât going to die so easily."
"What are you talking about? You are not my man!" Situ Luoyun blushed and gave Ye Luo a reproachful glance.
Ye Luo wrapped his arms around Situ Luoyun with a wicked smile, "What? Youâre already my woman; do you think you can escape from my grasp?"
"Ah, stop it. People are watching," Situ Luoyun protested, her face reddening to her ears as she noticed Alice, Lin Xiaoyan, and the other ladies watching them. Despite her bold and open nature, she felt a rush of shyness.
Ye Luo whispered something in Situ Luoyunâs ear, and her eyes suddenly filled with an expectant, spring-like look.
After dinner, the group headed straight back to the villa. Situ Luoyun naturally followed Ye Luo into his bedroom.
"What are big brother and sister doing, sneaking off to a room like that?" Alice asked curiously, her eyes darting around, about to go and check, but Lin Xiaoyan pulled her back with a slightly blushing face.
"Alright, Ye Luo and sister have things to talk about. Letâs go to sleep," Lin Xiaoyan said as she led the girls back to their rooms.
Meanwhile, in Ye Luoâs room, Situ Luoyun and Ye Luo didnât exchange many words before they ignited like dry wood meeting a flame. They quickly got into the mood, tumbled onto the bed, and began a tumultuous affair.
It had been several months since their last fierce encounter in Zhonghai, so their battle was incredibly intense.
Situ Luoyun became as bold and unrestrained as Yan Ling, dancing passionately on Ye Luoâs body, unleashing her fervor and flames, providing Ye Luo with a thoroughly satisfying fight.
The bout lasted for over two hours before ending. Situ Luoyun, her face wet with sweat mixed with her hair, lay seductively in Ye Luoâs arms like a ripe peach, irresistibly tempting one to take a bite.
"By the way, do you know that Yu Ru is pregnant?"
Situ Luoyun suddenly looked at Ye Luo and said.
Ye Luoâs expression subtly changed, and he nodded, saying, "I already know."
Situ Luoyunâs eyes flickered, "I donât know what Yu Ru is thinking, being pregnant and still planning to get engaged to Ji Lingtian. Isnât she worried about Ji Lingtian finding out? That would be terrible."
"Isnât the child Ji Lingtianâs? Whatâs there to worry about?" Ye Luo looked at Situ Luoyun in surprise.
"Who told you that the child is Ji Lingtianâs?" Situ Luoyun looked at Ye Luo, taken aback.
In an instant, Ye Luoâs face changed, and he blurted out, "The child isnât Ji Lingtianâs?"
"Of course not. Although Yu Ru is about to get engaged to Ji Lingtian, they barely have any contact, they havenât even held hands. How could her child be Ji Lingtianâs?"
"Iâve asked her a few times, but she wonât say who the father of the child is. She also said she doesnât want to disturb his life. I guess the father must have a family or a girlfriend. I donât know how someone with Yu Ruâs character could let this happen. Yet, she still canât bear to terminate the pregnancy," Situ Luoyun continued, but she failed to notice Ye Luoâs face, which was undergoing a series of changes, his pupils dilating, his breathing becoming rapid.
Ye Luo suddenly grabbed Situ Luoyunâs hand, his voice deep, "Luoyun, are you sure this is what Yu Ru told you?"
"Yeah? Whatâs wrong?" Situ Luoyun looked at Ye Luo confused, her thoughts suddenly racing, her gaze fixed on Ye Luo, "What did you just say? Yu Ru? Why did you say her name so intimately? And why are you so agitated to hear the child isnât Ji Lingtianâs? Could it be..."
As Situ Luoyun observed the changes in Ye Luoâs expression, her astute mind quickly grasped something. Her mouth hung open, a look of shock spread across her face as she stared at Ye Luo.
"The child couldnât be yours, could it?" Situ Luoyunâs eyes were fixated on Ye Luo.
Ye Luoâs eyes moved, a bitter smile forming on his lips, "If the child isnât Ji Lingtianâs, and assuming what she told you is true, then the child is likely mine."
All of a sudden, Situ Luoyunâs face registered shock as she looked at Ye Luo, her eyes wide with disbelief.
"When did you and Yu Ru get together like that?"
Ye Luo could only tell Situ Luoyun the whole story about the night they drank too much, and the latter murmured to herself with flickering eyes, "Unexpected. There are such twists in life, itâs truly amazing."
"It seems Yu Ru has been hiding this from you because she didnât want to disturb yours and Ling Qingyaâs life. No wonder she never disclosed who the father of the child is," said Situ Luoyun softly.
At this moment, Ye Luoâs feelings were incredibly complex, but his mood slightly eased. The emotions that had been suppressed within his heart were suddenly released upon receiving this news.
Ye Luo hadnât expected to become a father so soon; he actually had a child, which was utterly unbelievable.
"I canât believe Iâm going to be a dad," Ye Luo said, touching his nose.
Situ Luoyun glanced at Ye Luo and declared, "Donât get too excited just yet. Although the child might be yours, Yu Ru is getting engaged to Ji Lingtian the day after tomorrow. By then, the father of her child will be Ji Lingtian, not you, Ye Luo."
