Capítulo 923: Chapter 922: Boy Toy and CEO

“I refuse!”

“Heh.” Bo Tingshen chuckled softly, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you become a widow.”

“Who’s a widow!”

Ye Xian pushed him away, “Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me, we’re not married. If something happens to you, I’ll just go find a bunch of young hotties in the entertainment industry to enjoy… Mmm~”

Before she could finish, the man had firmly pressed her onto his lap, sealing her lips with a kiss.

“Let, let me go…”

“Are those young hotties better looking, richer, have better lung capacity, or are they better in bed than me…”

Ye Xian bit gently on his thin lips, her face reddened as she stopped him from saying more, “Well, as for the last part, nobody knows yet!”

“Oh? Let’s find out right now then.”

“Ah…” Ye Xian hit his misbehaving hand, half-angry, half-amused, “At a time like this, and you’re still being so improper?”

“What time?”

“A critical life and death time!”

“To die under a peony is worth being a ghost.”

“You…” Ye Xian pinched his neck, wondering when exactly this man’s mind became so full of nonsense and love-obsessed!

“Stop joking around, aren’t you even a bit scared?”

“Scared of what? Don’t you believe in me?”

“Believe or not…”

Ye Xian recalled his combat skills, which were indeed terrifying, the best she’d ever seen.

The most shocking was when he defeated Cheng Zidong and his thugs barehanded on the Talotas Race Track. But those were street thugs without real skill, now he’s facing the strongest inheritor of the Ancient Martial Sect.

“He’s a professional fighter, if…”

“If I die…”

Ye Xian covered his mouth, “Stop talking about dying, it’s bad luck, quickly spit it out three times!”

Bo Tingshen’s Feather Jade Eyebrow curved with a smile, he removed her hand, “There is one regret.”

“What regret?”

Ye Xian was curious.

Bo Tingshen embraced her, his deep magnetic voice whispering in her ear, “I still haven’t tasted the joys of romance.”

Ye Xian gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and like an anxious little bunny, bit down on his shoulder, “You’re being ridiculous again!”

Unexpectedly, the man let out a low groan of enjoyment.

Ye Xian: “…”

“CEO!”

That groan was like a flash of inspiration in her mind, “I suddenly remembered something!”

She looked at him with joy, “The Lu Family is using this pledge of honor from the Ancient Martial rules, right? I remember Lu Cen also made a promise to me. He said we should try dating for three months, and if either of us didn’t feel anything, the engagement would be automatically canceled and he’d talk to his grandfather. So we just wait three months for the engagement to cancel automatically! If they bring up the old promise again, I can accuse them of going back on their word!”

Ye Xian spoke her piece obliviously, not noticing Bo Tingshen’s face had already changed when she mentioned ‘he made a promise to me’.

“You plan to spend three months with him?”

The air Bo Tingshen blew into her ear turned sinister, and Ye Xian, noticing his dramatically darkened expression, stuttered, “No, it’s not like that, it’s just naturally…”

“You’re courting death.”

The little woman’s waist was squeezed hard by a large hand, causing her to nearly jump like a fish, “Ticklish! So ticklish!”

“Not a second more, or even a glance more, is allowed!”

“Alright, alright, I know!”

“Haven’t you learned your lesson?”

“I have, I definitely have!”

Ye Xian tugged at his hand, begging for mercy for a while before he finally relented.

“Penny-pincher, drink some cold water!”

“Isn’t that better than going to the arena?”

Bo Tingshen raised his eyes, and Ye Xian immediately shut her mouth, seeing the dangerous signal in his gloomy eyes.

If going to the arena was just about fighting, he might end up killing someone.

“If you’re really worried about me, why not give me some real encouragement?”

“… What kind of real encouragement?”

Ye Xian crossed her arms, eyeing him warily, hoping it wasn’t another improper request.

“Promise me one thing.”

“You say it first, and I’ll consider it.”

“Alright.” Bo Tingshen’s gaze swept over her, then changed the topic right before she lost her temper, “After the arena, come home with me.”

“Home, your home? What for?”

Bo Tingshen’s lips curved slightly, “To your home, to meet the parents. What are you expecting?”

“I’m not expecting anything, to meet… Aunt Wen and Uncle Bo?”

“Yes, they’ve been urging me to get married, and even Grandpa, before his last surgery, wished for me to start a family.”

“Oh.”

Ye Xian stroked her chin, nodding as she looked at him with an unclear expression, “Then go start a family, why tell me?”

Bo Tingshen’s black eyes narrowed slightly, the threat was implicit.

“You don’t mean… you’re using me as a placeholder, do you? CEO, we’re just dating now, isn’t this a bit sly… Hey!”

Suddenly, she was pressed firmly onto the back seat by a beast-like man, looking up at his lupine aggression, “What are you doing?!”

“I’m handling what’s mine.”

“Who’s yours, haha, save me!”

“In life, I’m yours; in death, I’m your ghost.”

“Pervert, I don’t want you!”

A Bentley Bentayga parked in front of the Lu Mansion, and two tall figures stepped out. As soon as Xiao Sui felt the cold air, he shivered and rubbed his hands, seeing You Shi his neck retracting like an ostrich, shook his head, “If you’re so afraid of the cold, why did you come along?”

“I’ve long heard of the Ancient Martial Sect’s Life and Death Arena, I’m here to see if you’re just boasting.”

“Well, watch carefully then, don’t wet yourself.”

“Spit on you!”

You Shi, with the keys in hand, walked up the steps with Xiao Sui, where disciples of the sect had been waiting at the door long before, “Senior Brother You, Old Master is already waiting for you in the hall.”

“Alright.”

You Shi reached the hall, where dozens of disciples of the sect stood to the sides, and Old Master Lu and Lu Cen walked down to greet him with smiles, “Shishi, long time no see, you’ve become more handsome and robust, how is senior brother doing?”

“Father is well, he asked me to convey his regards and inquire about your health.”

Old Master Lu waved it off, “Ah, I’m just an old sack of bones, who knows when I’ll fall apart!”

“Second Master is too humble, I see you’re full of spirit, strong and healthy, just like old times.”

“What a sweet talker this child is.”

“Senior Brother Five!” Lu Cen bowed to him respectfully, “Today’s matter with the arena, I must trouble you.”

You Shi: “There’s no trouble at all in family matters, and this is the rule of the sect. I will definitely do my best!”
