Chapter 618: Descendants of Baxia
"Uh..." Ye Qiu was speechless. He already recognized the voice as that of the reporter Shasha and knew why she was here.
But seriously, why does this girl talk without any filter?
"Last night..." Ye Qiu awkwardly glanced at Bai Lan.
Bai Lan didn't want to give him a chance to explain at all and directly interrupted him, "Nothing happened last night, just like a man who made a mistake would say."
"That's not it, it's just last night in the water..."
"You two even had a bath together?"
"..."
Ye Qiu was speechless and turned to flee from the office, lamenting about how unfair the world was and how hard it was to reason with women.
As he closed the door, Bai Lan couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The way Ye Qiu fled in panic was quite amusing to her.
Bai Lan never thought Ye Qiu was a decent person, but she also didn't think Ye Qiu would sleep with a woman who would shout and create a scene downstairs at the company...
Two minutes later, Ye Qiu arrived downstairs and met Shasha!
"Mr. Ye, let's continue with last night's matter." Shasha shouted excitedly and grabbed Ye Qiu's arm.
Immediately, strange looks fell on the two of them.
Ye Qiu was speechless and didn't want to speak, just silently watched Shasha.
Shasha also looked up at Ye Qiu, her excited eyes seemed to be filled with tender affection from an outsider's perspective.
After a full half-minute of silence, Shasha suddenly shivered, finally realizing the inappropriateness of her words earlier, and her whole face turned red.
Ye Qiu finally spoke, "I've already told you about the big turtle, what else do you want to ask?"
His tone was a bit impatient, really not wanting to be chased around by a reporter every day.
Shasha also noticed Ye Qiu's attitude and repeatedly apologized before taking out a picture and handing it to Ye Qiu, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ye, I just want you to see if that big Water Turtle looks a bit like the one in the picture!"
Upon seeing the picture, Ye Qiu was momentarily stunned, then nodded slightly, "Don't say, it does look a bit similar."
"Really?"
In an instant, Shasha jumped up excitedly, hugging Ye Qiu and exclaiming, "Really? Really? I've searched for so long and finally found it, seems the legends are true!"
"What is it?" Ye Qiu hurriedly asked, suddenly realizing that the thousand-year-old Water Turtle wasn't as simple as he thought.
Shasha got more excited, hugging Ye Qiu even tighter, "A descendant of Baxia, it's a descendant of Baxia! Also known as one of the Seven Dragon Sons, that big Water Turtle is very likely a descendant of Baxia!
When I was young, I went to play by that river and accidentally saw a very large turtle. I told the adults, but no one believed me, so I did some research, and it's said that descendants of Baxia lived in that river.
Later, I wanted to continue investigating and became a reporter to fulfill my dream of finding a descendant of Baxia. But over twenty years passed, and I never saw it again. I didn't expect it to appear this time!"
"A descendant of Baxia? Now that's interesting!" Ye Qiu's eyes lit up, and his interest was piqued.
Such creatures only existed in myths. If he could find its lair, how much benefit could he gain?
It must be a lot!
Ye Qiu was a bit impatient, eager to dive back into the water and search again to see if he could find the lair of Baxia's descendant!
He thought that if he could find some treasures, his own strength could rapidly increase.
Just as Ye Qiu was planning, suddenly, a furious shout came from a distance.
"Ye Qiu, you bastard, let go of Shasha right now!"
"Damn it, Shasha is my woman, how dare you touch her, today I'm going to destroy you!"
"Ahhh, I'm going to kill you! I'll kill you!!!"
Seeing Ye Qiu and Shasha tightly hugging each other, Sima Gong was so furious his eyes turned red, almost losing his sanity!
Sima Gong had come today to seek revenge from Ye Qiu and never expected to see the woman he'd been pursuing for so long easily fall into Ye Qiu's embrace!
The more Sima Gong thought about it, the angrier he got, his nostrils almost steaming, fists clenched tight, advancing towards Ye Qiu like a mad beast!
"This is trouble!" Seeing the out-of-control Sima Gong, Shasha was startled and quickly stood in front of Ye Qiu, anxiously saying, "Ye Qiu, hurry and leave, I'll hold him back, he likes me, he won't do anything to me."
Even though she saw Ye Qiu throw Sima Gong into the water last night, Shasha thought it was completely due to Sima Gong's carelessness.
In a head-on confrontation, Ye Qiu simply couldn't be Sima Gong's match.
Moreover, now that Sima Gong was utterly enraged!
This was a Taekwondo black belt master of the ninth dan, in a state of rage, how could Ye Qiu possibly withstand him?
"Sima Gong, stop, stop!"
Shasha anxiously shouted at Sima Gong.
However, her attempt to stop him didn't make Sima Gong halt at all, instead, it made him even angrier!
The woman he'd been pursuing was standing up for another man?
If this got out, where would his dignity be?
Sima Gong's face twisted with rage, quickened his pace, reached Shasha's side rapidly, then sidestepped her, swinging his fist straight towards Ye Qiu's head.
"Sima Gong, no, don't!!!"
Shasha was so anxious she almost started crying. She had seen Sima Gong punch someone into a half-month coma with her own eyes, believing that if Ye Qiu took the hit, he wouldn't fare much better.
However, just as Shasha thought Ye Qiu was going to be seriously injured, the Ye Qiu behind her suddenly moved.
Ye Qiu just slightly stepped back two steps, effortlessly dodging Sima Gong's punch.
Sima Gong was stunned, not expecting Ye Qiu to truly have some skills, but he still didn't think that even when he got serious, Ye Qiu would be a match for him.
Or rather, the boundless fury had already stripped him of rationality!
"Ye Qiu, I'm going to kill you, kill you!"
"You bastard, you even dare touch my woman, you're just asking to die!"
Sima Gong cursed wildly, pushed Shasha aside, then with a gust of wind, lifted his leg and fiercely swept towards Ye Qiu.
Seeing this blow, Shasha was utterly hopeless.
She knew very well, Sima Gong's most powerful skill was his legwork, believing that this kick would break a few of Ye Qiu's ribs.
"Go die!" Sima Gong was also confident in this kick, a cruel smile appeared on his lips, speaking lowly, "Kid, if you don't end up lying in the hospital for half a year, don't call me Sima Gong!"
Sima Gong's attack got closer and closer until it was about to hit Ye Qiu's body...
In a flash, Ye Qiu swung his right arm and instantly grabbed Sima Gong's calf!
