Martial Arts Master in the City

Ye Xiao didn't say another word and directly left Su Yun's villa. Although he was usually sharp, he couldn't figure out what was going on with Su Yun, or what she was thinking.

Ye Xiao wasn't a fool. He could sense that something was definitely wrong, but what exactly was it?

Standing below the villa, Ye Xiao looked up at the already darkened window upstairs. He had imagined countless times being intimate with Su Yun, but never in his wildest dreams did he think it would happen at such a time. More importantly, after being intimate...

Afterwards, Ye Xiao left, somewhat troubled.

Ye Xiao didn't notice that when he left, by a window above the villa, Su Yun stood there, tears falling from her eyes!

The Su family's backyard!

Inside the villa at this moment!

Wang Luoxin, Qi Qianhan, Cheng Yun, and other women were busy in the kitchen. Clearly, they intended to prepare a sumptuous dinner to reward everyone who had been worried the past few days.

"I really don't understand what Ye Xiao is thinking. Does he have a habit of ordering people around?" Qi Qianhan complained unhappily while washing a piece of beef, "Obviously the Su family would send the food over, but he made us cook it ourselves. And just when it's time to start cooking, he disappears, as if he wants us to be his laborers. It's just shameful."

"Qianhan, Ye Xiao isn't like that. He must have had something important to do. Besides, cooking ourselves has its benefits. At least, we can make whatever we like to eat." Wang Luoxin tried to console Qi Qianhan.

At this, Cheng Yun laughed and said, "Actually, I think Ye Xiao's reasoning wasn't about us making whatever we want, but rather, the Su family's attitude towards us is uncertain right now. Can we really trust the food they bring us?"

"That's true!" Qi Qianhan said. "Seems like Ye Xiao is quite thoughtful after all."

Cheng Yun said, "He's not exactly a thoughtful person, but he is our leader here. At the very least, he should be responsible for our safety, right?"

While the kitchen was filled with conversation, suddenly, Lu Liu, who stood at the kitchen door, said softly, "Brother Xiao is back!"

Upon hearing that Ye Xiao had returned.

Qi Qianhan immediately put the washed beef into a small bowl, wiped her hands, and walked out. At the same time, she muttered, "I want to see what urgent matter was so important that he made us take care of him!"

Upon hearing Qi Qianhan's words, Wang Luoxin was also a bit helpless, yet she hurried to stop her.

As they spoke, Qi Qianhan and Wang Luoxin arrived at the kitchen entrance, and they saw Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao didn't show any enthusiasm; instead, he walked into the villa with a somber face, then sat down on the sofa, looking dazed, as if he was deep in thought about something.

At this point, Qi Qianhan was the first to step out of the kitchen. She walked over to Ye Xiao without caring whether he was happy or angry, pointing at him and saying, "Ye Xiao, don't you think you've gone too far?"

Ye Xiao, lost in deep thought, heard someone talking to him and slowly looked up in surprise, his eyes meeting Qi Qianhan's.

"Are you talking to me?" Ye Xiao asked, puzzled.

Qi Qianhan immediately said, "Of course. What did you think?"

Ye Xiao couldn't tell that Qi Qianhan was displeased, and asked, "What's the matter? Just say it."

"Are you truly oblivious or just pretending? You told us to cook, so why did you run off on your own? The food's almost ready, and now you come back? Isn't it obvious you want us to take care of your meals?" Qi Qianhan glared at Ye Xiao, speaking angrily.

After listening to Qi Qianhan's words, Ye Xiao didn't argue. He just let out an "Oh!"

"What?" Qi Qianhan was even angrier hearing just an "Oh" from Ye Xiao and glared, saying, "Ye Xiao, don't you think you're being very inconsiderate?"

"I'll cook next time. Thank you for your hard work today." Ye Xiao's words were very polite, without any anger, as if he was saying something insignificant.

Qi Qianhan was a bit taken aback by Ye Xiao's response, as this was not the Ye Xiao she knew. He was not one to be berated by others, at least not in her opinion.

However, right at this moment, Ye Xiao did something even more surprising to everyone!

Ye Xiao slowly rose from the sofa, looked at Qi Qianhan, then at Wang Luoxin, and said, "I'm not very hungry and don't want to eat. I'm going upstairs to rest."

After saying this, Ye Xiao directly headed towards the stairs.

Wang Luoxin was shocked too. Initially, she thought Ye Xiao was teasing Qi Qianhan, but at this moment, she realized something must have happened.

Yet, when Qi Qianhan heard Ye Xiao's words, she thought he was deliberately embarrassing her and wanted to say more, but was stopped by Wang Luoxin.

"Qianhan!" Wang Luoxin looked at Qi Qianhan.

Qi Qianhan looked at Wang Luoxin unhappily and said, "Ye Xiao is deliberately making things difficult for me!"

"No, definitely not!" Wang Luoxin looked at Ye Xiao who had gone upstairs seriously and said, "Something must have happened. You guys continue cooking. I'll go see him!"

After saying this, Wang Luoxin headed upstairs.

Qi Qianhan watched Wang Luoxin and then looked upstairs, feeling very puzzled.

Ye Xiao returned to his room, not taking Qi Qianhan's words to heart. His mind was full of thoughts about Su Yun and the look in her eyes when she made him leave.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Ye Xiao knew without thinking who it would be.

"The door's not locked!" Ye Xiao said.

The door opened, and Wang Luoxin walked into the room.

The room in the villa was finely decorated, much better than the environment at a motel.

At the tea table in the room, Ye Xiao sat there.

Wang Luoxin looked at Ye Xiao, who was sitting quietly, then slowly walked to him and gently knelt down, placing her delicate hand on Ye Xiao's arm. She looked up at him and asked, "What happened to make you so upset? Can you tell me?"

Ye Xiao looked at Wang Luoxin and then slightly shook his head, saying, "Nothing, nothing at all."
