The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife

At this moment, Su Qingyu's mind was filled with thoughts of Ye Shikai, who had hastily left that day. Did he go to Yun City because of some urgent matter?

"Qingyu, you don't seem to be feeling well," An Lan approached and asked with concern.

"Yeah, a bit of chest tightness," Su Qingyu nodded, putting down the wine glass in her hand and sighed softly.

"You're thinking about him, aren't you? Don't worry, I just spoke with him on the phone," An Lan could see right through Su Qingyu's thoughts. Her heart was full of Ye Shikai, days without seeing him, how could she not worry? As a close friend, An Lan was well aware of Su Qingyu's nature. When Ye Shikai was in Yanjing, she acted very calm, as if her emotions weren't stirred much. But as soon as Ye Shikai left, Su Qingyu was unsettled, couldn't eat or drink, like a living 'Longing Rock'.

"Lanlan, I've been having this bad feeling lately, it's just... really awful," Su Qingyu was a bit uneasy, maybe because of what happened with Ji Qian last time. She constantly had Ye Shikai in her thoughts. She trusted Ye Shikai, but she was equally afraid of betrayal, something every woman fears.

She used to be confident and assured, but doesn't know when she started becoming suspicious and indecisive. Especially with Ye Shikai, with so many women around him, it always worried Su Qingyu, even giving her nightmares a few times.

"Alright, don't worry, he went to Yun City for something urgent, didn't he? If you're really worried, I have a good idea," An Lan said mysteriously.

"Really? Tell me quickly," Su Qingyu said loudly, then realized she might have overreacted, as if she was really trying to deal with Ye Shikai. However, An Lan had skillfully gotten her to express her innermost thoughts.

"You can find him something to do," An Lan said excitedly.

"Isn't he already working as an instructor in the army?" Su Qingyu rubbed her head and said indifferently.

"That's just a side job," An Lan waved her hand and said in a different tone, "I mean, you can help him find something to do."

"What is there for him to do?" Su Qingyu was quite puzzled. Speaking of which, Ye Shikai really needed to focus on doing something now. The affairs of the Netherworld Palace are basically handled by Ghost, and the instructor role in the army was just an occasional task. All in all, he's just idle. Now that there's a case at the National Security Bureau, he's just helping out.

Su Qingyu regretted letting Ye Shikai leave Tianya Group back then.

"You can think about it slowly; as long as it's in Yanjing and close to home, I think it's all good," An Lan continued.

"Alright, I'll think about it," Su Qingyu nodded.

.......................................…

Yun City, Worm Sect.

"Mr. Ye, I heard you're going to marry our Sect Leader!" Juan'er excitedly rushed into Ye Shikai's room and exclaimed with joy.

"What? Where did you hear that from?" Ye Shikai's heart skipped a beat. How did Juan'er know about Wuyan's thoughts? Could it be that the whole Worm Sect knows? Perhaps Wuyan, that crazy woman, has already spread the word, planning to 'act first and report later.'

Feeling guilty, Ye Shikai was even more panicked this time. If Wuyan was serious, he would have to run, even if it meant not getting the pill. People are selfish; he couldn't betray Su Qingyu.

"Hehe, I... overheard it," Juan'er blushed, looking a bit embarrassed, "I heard your conversation with Master Dugu, so..."

"Shh," Ye Shikai immediately rushed over, covering Juan'er's mouth, signaling her to keep quiet.

"Ahem, Juan'er, I must clarify, regarding this matter, it is entirely baseless," Ye Shikai said solemnly.

"What, is it fake? But I clearly heard it," Juan'er's voice grew softer, and her tone was evidently disappointed.

"Of course, I'm already spoken for, how can I marry your Sect Leader?" Ye Shikai patted his chest and said firmly.

"This..."

"Juan'er, you seem quite disappointed," Ye Shikai rubbed his forehead, confused as to why Juan'er, who rushed in excitedly to ask about the marriage, seemed disappointed to hear it wasn't happening. Could it be she wanted Wuyan to 'get married'?

"A little, I guess. The Sect Leader is a great woman; any man who marries her would be very fortunate," Juan'er nodded, and Ye Shikai forcibly swallowed back the words 'You got it wrong.' Wuyan was so overbearing; how could that be fortunate? However, Ye Shikai didn't want to ruin Juan'er's admiration and impression of Wuyan.

"Haha, I really hope she can find a man soon," Ye Shikai laughed it off, casually picking up a cup from the table, taking a sip of tea to cover his embarrassment.

"Mr. Ye, do you... not have any improper thoughts about our Sect Leader?" Suddenly, Juan'er dropped an unexpected question.

Pfft.

Ye Shikai suddenly spat out the tea in his mouth, wondering why this disciple would have such thoughts. Could it be Juan'er was also experiencing the bloom of love?

"Mr. Ye, are you alright?" Juan'er quickly stepped forward, wiping the tea off Ye Shikai.

"Cough cough, I'm fine," Ye Shikai waved his hand.

"That's good."

Knock, knock, knock.

At this moment, the wooden door was slowly pushed open, and Dugu Tianke stepped in with a large wooden box.

"Master Dugu."

"Master."

"Haha, Juan'er, my young friend, you're both here," Dugu Tianke smiled, placing the wooden box on the table.

"Master, what's in there?" Ye Shikai asked curiously.

"Haha, you can open it and see," Dugu Tianke teased with a mysterious smile. Ye Shikai was full of curiosity as he reached to open the wooden box, finding inside hundreds of pills all of the same size and shape.

"These are..."

"These are just what you need," Dugu Tianke sighed lightly, "These past few days have exhausted this old man."

"What, these are the pills that can prolong the effects of the HST medication?" Ye Shikai exclaimed with surprise, quickly taking a pill from the box to examine it carefully.

"Of course, not to boast, but with these pills, that potion's effects can at least be delayed for a month. By then, you'll have enough time to completely resolve the issue," Dugu Tianke said confidently. Ye Shikai was thrilled; with Dugu Tianke's assurance, it meant these pills were definitely effective.

But, can the pills be taken away just like that? Wouldn't Wuyan oppose?
