Too little – there was almost nothing about Si Xiaoshuang that could make Tian Ye like, be curious about, or admire her. From the first glance, he didn’t even want to look at her again. Although she was a princess and an extraordinary beauty, this wasn’t what Tian Ye wanted.
What he didn’t want, even the slightest bit, was excess.
Tian Ye returned home, with bodyguards lined up outside the villa, seemingly welcoming the young master home.
Young Master Tian Ye had been away for a month, and these men had no idea how much they had suffered. But when the young master needed help, they hadn’t stood up, and now, seeing him return, they probably felt ashamed, waiting for him to explode.
Tian Ye approached the entrance, looked at these guards, hands on his hips, swaying left and right, “How’s life been treating you?”
After a moment of silence, no one responded. Everyone kept their heads down. Tian Ye grew angry, “Fine, not speaking? I’ll punish you to run 100 laps around the villa.” He pushed through the crowd and entered the hall.
The guards exchanged glances, put on their jackets, and began running…
Hui met the young master with some nervousness, “Young master, welcome back.” Hui was clever, knowing this wasn’t the time to speak. He greeted Tian Ye respectfully and stood waiting.
Tian Ye didn’t mean to blame Hui. Punishing the guards wasn’t about anger, but establishing authority and reinforcing leadership for the Tian clan. “Come with me,” Tian Ye said and walked into the hall.
Tian Ye relaxed on the sofa, looking at the silent Hui, “Alright, stop being so serious. Come, sit.”
Hui relaxed, sitting beside Tian Ye, “Young master, what are your orders?”
Tian Ye put his arm around Hui’s shoulder, “Agreeing to be with Si Xiaoshuang was fake. I was acting during that month at her home. On my way back on the private jet, her family’s steward called, saying their young lady was chasing me on a plane, asking me to slow down.” Tian Ye laughed, a mischievous smile.
Hui was surprised the young master would dare such a deception, but quickly composed himself, knowing the young master’s long-standing relationship with Mei Yu. “Young master, what do you need me to do?”
