Chapter 254, Madam is indeed different from others (five watch)

Surrounding them, silence descended like a chilling cicada.

The sight of those two figures embracing each other captivated everyone’s gaze, and the breaths of all present involuntarily halted, their expressions varying.

There was even a hint of sourness.

Was this still the same composed and ruthless Fifth Master?

The Li family patriarch watched his son’s back, his face ashen.

In the face of the public, what manner of conduct was this between the two of them?

It was simply outrageous.

"Li Mochan, I can hardly breathe," the person in his arms murmured.

Li Mochan loosened his grip slightly, but still held her tightly, his lips against her ear, "Why did you leave me again, why didn’t you tell me when you came back?"

His magnetic voice was low and dark, the tone full of grievance and reproach.

In the end, his first concern was whether she was hurt, "Did you get injured anywhere?"

Ye Jiuliang curled her lips, lifting her head from Li Mochan’s embrace to meet his bloodshot eyes. Her heart clenched violently, and the curve at the corner of her lips couldn’t be maintained any longer.

Hearing that she had fallen over a cliff must have terrified him, right?

She raised a hand to wipe the fine sweat from his forehead, her tone softened, her voice was soft, "When I woke up that day and saw the rain outside, I missed you, worried you hadn’t recovered from your cold. Last night when I was drinking on the rooftop, I still missed you terribly, so I came back."

Li Mochan lowered his gaze to look at her, his dark eyes astonishingly bright, like a sky full of stars, hot and dazzling.

"I didn’t expect that the surprise I wanted to give you would turn into a scare," Ye Jiuliang continued, her fingertips moving up to gently smooth the slightly disheveled hair on his forehead.

Li Mochan let her play with his hair, his obedient expression making everyone around tongue-tied.

Were these two being too double-standard?

They had both just been like vengeful gods, so what was with this tender sentiment now?

"Am I that unimportant to you?" Li Mochan gripped her hand, his gaze locking onto her. Ye Jiuliang could vaguely see hints of anger and aggrievement in his eyes.

"You always leave me and run away." Even when he had chased after her calling her name, she had still run away.

Days passed without a single message; she didn’t even answer her phone.

It felt as if she was about to disappear completely from his world.

Listening to his complaints, Ye Jiuliang’s lips curled up slightly, and she leaned in to kiss the corner of his lips.

Taken by surprise, those around them quickly looked away, their faces embarrassed.

Look away from what is not proper.

Not far away, Wei Bei touched his nose, speechlessly gazing at the ground.

The lady was indeed extraordinary.

The smile in Ye Jiuliang’s eyes gained a touch of warmth, "I’ve been missing you from morning till night, who said you were unimportant?"

At her words, Li Mochan’s furrowed brows relaxed, the dark clouds that had accumulated in his heart for days gradually dispersing, turning into a surge of tenderness.

He murmured into her ear, "But you didn’t answer my calls."

Ye Jiuliang, "..."

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the Li family patriarch’s ashen face, and she remembered the room full of people.

Now was not the time to be discussing this.

"We’ll talk about this later. Let me settle the accounts first." She pushed him slightly, but Li Mochan’s hand around her waist remained firm.

Ye Jiuliang let it be, lowering her head to look at Li Hao, the smile vanishing from her eyes, cold as ice, "The Token was taken by you, those people were also from the Li family, and the command was given by you. What right do you have to ask me to let you off, huh?"

Li Hao dared not raise his head, continually bowing, "I... it’s my stupidity, my overestimation of myself, Miss Ye, please spare me this once, I was also bewitched by others."

Before coming here, Wei Bei had roughly explained the situation on the phone. Li Mochan, watching Li Hao kneeling on the ground, had a dark look in his eyes.

Almost, just because of these people, he had almost lost the chance to see his little wolf cub.
