The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife

Ji Yu clutched the cleaver tightly, pressing it forcefully against Ye Shikai's neck. Despite being a tool meant for cutting meat, its sharpness was certainly enough to easily slice through his skin.

In fact, Ye Shikai thoroughly believed that Ji Yu would dare to use the knife. The Ji Family was one of the four great families in Yanjing, and Ji Yu was equivalent to a princess. At least, she didn't think that killing Ye Shikai would have any impact on her.

At this moment, a waiter passed by the private room, quickly glanced inside, then closed the wooden door. Ye Shikai really wanted to curse out loud; couldn't this employee see that he was being held hostage?

Wait a second, a terrifying thought suddenly popped into Ye Shikai's mind. Why did the employee just close the door? Shouldn't his instinct have been to call for help? Looking again at Ji Yu's pretty face, which didn't look like she had just cried, could it be that all of this was premeditated by her? Oh, she had indeed insisted on inviting Ye Shikai for a meal earlier; it was deeply frightening to think about.

This was indeed a Banquet.

"Hiss, it hurts," Ye Shikai exclaimed repeatedly as a streak of blood probably appeared on his neck, and in this position, Ye Shikai couldn't exert any force, nor could he afford to injure Ji Yu. Maybe he should stall for time.

"Speak, do you want to or not?" Ji Yu glared angrily into his eyes. Ye Shikai turned his head aside, not expecting such a fierce side from this delicate young girl.

"Yu, calm down, let's first put down the knife..."

"Do you want to or not? Answer me, right now, immediately!" Ji Yu shouted excitedly, straddling Ye Shikai's waist and kneeling on both sides of his body.

"Yu, if you killed me, what do you think your sister would feel?" Ye Shikai suddenly spoke, and as soon as he finished speaking, he felt Ji Yu's body tremble. Surely, this was all planned by Ji Yu who definitely knew how important Ye Shikai was to Ji Qian. If she really killed Ye Shikai, Ji Qian would be devastated.

"Psh, you think you can use my sister to threaten me? If you really cared about her feelings, why don't you accept her?" Ji Yu shook her head, and slapped Ye Shikai across the face with her other hand.

"I…" Ye Shikai was suddenly at a loss for words. Ji Qian was a woman of deep emotions, and their affection was deep-seated, how could he easily let go of that memory?

"You can't even speak now, can you?" Ji Yu sneered twice, her demeanor growing more insane with Ye Shikai's silence.

"Ye Shikai, you betrayed my sister, I can't kill you, but I will make you pay." Ji Yu whispered coldly into Ye Shikai's ear, "Aren't you marrying Su Qingyu? I will start with her."

"You dare." Ye Shikai trembled, instinctively flipping Ji Yu under him, wrenching the cleaver from her hand. Su Qingyu was his weak spot, whoever touched her would die; he never imagined Ji Yu could be so insane.

"Haha, Ye Shikai, indeed, you truly are a Chen Shimei," Ji Yu sneered twice more, Ye Shikai's action reaffirmed her belief; Ye Shikai's heart was entirely with Su Qingyu, completely forgetting Ji Qian.

"You are my sister's beloved, I cannot kill you, but I am her sister, and you cannot kill me either."

"I've never thought about killing you, nor have I ever been a Chen Shimei," Ye Shikai said gravely, throwing the cleaver aside and getting up from Ji Yu, patting the dust off his body.

"I am sorry to your sister, but we have already settled matters. If you think I intentionally hurt her, I won't acknowledge that." Ye Shikai looked down at Ji Yu on the ground, saying indifferently, "If one day, she falls into the water, I will definitely be the first to jump in and save her."

Ji Yu slowly stood up, her face in shock; indeed, Ye Shikai's words sounded more like a forceful declaration of love to Ji Qian, which was unexpected to Ji Yu.

"This meal, you had it pre-arranged, didn't you?" Ye Shikai said self-deprecatingly as he faced the door, "To think that I, always so cautious, would today be tricked by a little girl."

"It's not a little girl in front of you, but a spy." Ji Yu coldly said, and Ye Shikai's lips slightly curled up—indeed, though Ji Yu was young, she was no less cunning than any old fox in the business world, and with that harmless face, she could sometimes be more dangerous than anyone.

"If you have any issues regarding my matter with your sister, feel free to call her." Ye Shikai straightened his clothes and turned to leave the private room.

"Wait." Suddenly, Ji Yu shouted, and Ye Shikai turned back, curiously looking at her.

"What you just said, is it true?" Ji Yu asked earnestly.

"Every word is true." After Ye Shikai finished speaking slowly, word by word, he left without looking back.

............…

Ye Shikai drove intending to go home first. He felt more and more annoyed as he thought about how Ji Yu had tricked him, furiously honking his horn. Indeed, since his return from the ruins of Atlantis, his temper had changed. Ye Shikai took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. Could it be that what Wang Kai said was right, that he was developing a second personality?

"Eh, brother-in-law, you're back so early." As soon as he entered the house, he saw Su Ziqing comfortably nestled on the sofa, watching a soap opera.

"Oh, I wasn't feeling well, so I came back early." Ye Shikai shook his head, his face showing fatigue.

"I see, then you rest here for a while." Su Ziqing shifted her body to make room on the sofa, and Ye Shikai didn't avoid her, lying down directly.

Ye Shikai closed his eyes, wanting to nap for a bit. In a half-dream state, he suddenly saw Su Ziqing holding a fruit knife, coldly staring at him...

"What are you doing?" Ye Shikai suddenly felt a sense of crisis, and with a roar, he jumped up and pinned Su Ziqing down on the sofa.

"Brother-in-law, what are you doing?" Su Ziqing, holding the fruit knife, looked scared and dumbfounded.

"What are you doing with that fruit knife?" Ye Shikai questioned coldly.

"I, I was peeling fruit to eat." Su Ziqing looked innocently at the half-peeled apple on the table.

"Oh, I see, I'm sorry, Qingqing." Ye Shikai instantly realized his mistake, but what was going on? Was it an illusion?

"Brother-in-law, what's wrong with you, why are you so fierce?" Su Ziqing stammered, clearly frightened by Ye Shikai's aggressive behavior just now.

"Sorry, sorry, I've just been a bit tense lately, a bit too sensitive, feeling a bit dizzy." Ye Shikai picked up the iced water from the table and gulped it down.

"I see, do you want to go to the hospital to get checked out?"
