Chapter 2389 - 2390: At Worst, Death

Sponsored

After pondering for a long time, Lian Xing finally decided that it was better to tell Ye Xunhuan about it. Otherwise, if something really happened to Su Guyan, and Ye Xunhuan ended up hating her, it wouldn’t be good.

Although Lian Xing had made up her mind to tell Ye Xunhuan, she didn’t immediately go to him because she still had a performance tonight at Lian Xiangju. She absolutely couldn’t miss it. At this juncture, it would be easy for people to become suspicious.

Lian Xing didn’t want to attract attention at this time. After all, being noticed by others right now would mean trouble.

Although Lian Xing wasn’t afraid of trouble, she didn’t want to be entangled in it either. In fact, no one would like to be troubled!

Lian Xiangju was as glamorous and lively as ever, a place filled with indulgence. Various types of beauties adorned the surroundings, captivating countless people.

It’s not an exaggeration to call it a money-consuming den.

Lian Xing, as usual, played a piece and then pretended to leave, intending to find Ye Xunhuan.

But just as Lian Xing was about to leave, a middle-aged man suddenly appeared in front of her and said, "Miss Lian Xing, my master would like to invite you for a drink. Would you do us the honor?"

The middle-aged man had a very warm and sincere smile on his face.

Lian Xing glanced at him briefly and said nonchalantly, "Sorry, I’m not feeling well and can’t go over."

As she said this, she was about to leave.

Just as Lian Xing turned to leave, the middle-aged man immediately blocked her way: "Since Miss Lian Xing is not feeling well, perhaps she could just chat with my master for a few minutes!"

"Of course, my master is not a stingy person. As long as Miss Lian Xing is willing to come, the price is up to you!"

Lian Xing’s delicate brows furrowed slowly. She had made it quite clear that she didn’t want to go, but the other party was choosing to pretend not to understand.

The next moment, just as Lian Xing was about to speak, a tall, square-faced middle-aged man, exuding a mature masculine scent, appeared beside her.

This middle-aged man was wearing an expensive suit and had a Rolex on his wrist, embodying the air of a successful businessman, yet he naturally exuded an elegant aura.

"Sir, Miss Lian Xing, she..."

The man waved his hand to stop him: "Miss Lian Xing, don’t worry, I didn’t mean anything else. It’s just that I admire your mastery of the guzheng and wanted to discuss it with you!"

"Because I also dabble in it quite a bit in my spare time."

Lian Xing glanced at him: "And you are...?"

"My last name is Ke," the man said softly, "You can call me Mr. Ke!"

"Mr. Ke, although I’m eager to discuss it with you, I’m truly sorry, I’m not feeling well. Let’s do it another day!" Lian Xing expressed her refusal again.

Upon hearing Lian Xing’s words, Mr. Ke’s face gradually showed a regretful expression: "That’s a pity, but since that’s the case, Miss Lian Xing, please rest well. I hope I won’t be rejected again next time I come!"

"Mr. Ke, come again next time, I’ll be sure to properly host you!"

Afterward, Lian Xing turned and left.

After Lian Xing turned to leave, Mr. Ke immediately instructed the man beside him: "I want all the information about this woman, from birth until now, every piece of data that’s traceable!"

...

After leaving, Lian Xing changed her clothes and left Lian Xiangju from another exit.

After leaving Lian Xiangju, Lian Xing headed straight to the residence of Ye Xunhuan and Olivia.

When Lian Xing arrived at Ye Xunhuan and Olivia’s residence, the two of them hadn’t gone to bed yet. They were playing Go.

"You two seem to be in quite a good mood!" Lian Xing said softly upon seeing them.

The next moment, Ye Xunhuan and Olivia almost simultaneously looked up and directed their gaze at Lian Xing.

"Why are you here at this time? Is Lian Xiangju not needing you?" Ye Xunhuan asked curiously.

Over the past few days, Lian Xing hadn’t sought them out at night. Her arrival now made Ye Xunhuan instinctively think something was up.

After all, Ye Xunhuan had been to Lian Xiangju and knew what kind of place it was, and understood Lian Xing’s significance there.

"Actually, I didn’t want to come either, but there’s something I must tell you!" Lian Xing said very seriously and gravely.

"What is it?"

Lian Xing paused for a moment as if organizing her words in her mind: "Young Master Ye, Miss Su Guyan has been captured by the King’s men..."

"What?" Ye Xunhuan’s expression immediately changed.

Su Guyan held an extremely significant place in Ye Xunhuan’s heart. Su Guyan was his first love; it was a past he couldn’t forget, and now they had finally reunited, something Ye Xunhuan cherished greatly.

Upon hearing that Su Guyan had been captured by the King, Ye Xunhuan instantly became extremely tense, his face filled with deep worry.

"Is the King trying to lure me out?" Ye Xunhuan asked Lian Xing, his gaze fixed on her.

Lian Xing didn’t hide anything, nodding directly in acknowledgment: "You guessed right. The King has already released a message. If you don’t show up at the Ye residence before sunset tomorrow, he will kill Su Guyan!"

Ye Xunhuan’s fists clenched tightly, his face slowly filling with cold, murderous intent: "Despicable!"

At that moment, Olivia suddenly spoke: "It seems there’s no way to avoid this!"

Olivia clearly understood who Ye Xunhuan was. He would never abandon Su Guyan, even if there was a trap ahead, Ye Xunhuan would jump into it without hesitation.

"Young Master Ye, I told you this so you could remain calm," Lian Xing said softly. "This is obviously a trap, set by the King just for you. If you show up, you’ll be playing right into the King’s hands!"

Ye Xunhuan took a deep breath: "I know, but it’s a gamble I can’t afford to take!"

Yes, Ye Xunhuan couldn’t afford to gamble because a life was at stake. If it was lost, it would be forever.

Moreover, the one in the King’s hands was Su Guyan.

"So, are you going to find the King tomorrow?"

"I have no choice," Ye Xunhuan sighed heavily.

Lian Xing said nothing more to Ye Xunhuan but instead looked at Olivia, hoping she could persuade him.

"Don’t look at me. If I could sway him, I would have spoken already," Olivia said helplessly. "But hiding like this isn’t a solution either. Since the King wants us to appear, then appear we shall. At worst, it’s just death!"
