CHAPTER 564: CHAPTER 0483: THE GODDESS CLINGS TO YE QINGFENG

Bai Wan’er and An Ruoqing stood silently to the side, leaving Ye Qingfeng and Bei Yinyao as the main focus in the scene.

After a few minutes, Bei Yinyao finally raised her tear-streaked face, which was now very close to Ye Qingfeng.

"Are you still unwilling to admit that you are ’wood’?"

Her eyes were filled with a mix of grievance and stubbornness, her slender hands grasping Ye Qingfeng’s arm, showing no intention of letting go.

"Fine, I admit it was me!"

Ye Qingfeng knew there was no avoiding it, so he sighed and his expression returned to indifference.

"But that doesn’t mean anything. I told you back then, we would soon become just passing figures in each other’s lives. Why overthink it?"

He spread his hands with a look of nonchalance.

But Bei Yinyao suddenly stood on tiptoe and hooked her arms around his neck, her fiery red lips pressing against his.

Ye Qingfeng, being one of the top Martial Arts Masters in the world, how could Bei Yinyao be faster than him, no matter how quick her actions?

He raised his hand to block Bei Yinyao, keeping a distance between them.

"Bei Yinyao, what are you doing?" Ye Qingfeng said helplessly. "I’ve made it clear to you here, in my eyes, you’re just a girl I inexplicably saved. I don’t care what you’re thinking, but we are not on the same path, understand?"

Bei Yinyao’s tears welled up in her eyes; she sniffed and held back her tears, choking, "Why don’t you dare to let me kiss you?"

Her gaze firm and stubborn, her jade hand clung to Ye Qingfeng refusing to let go, she lamented, "Ever since I left you, I keep telling myself every day that if I meet you again, I’ll give everything to you. Everything I have belongs to you, only you. In this lifetime, I’ll never fall for anyone else, only you."

Bei Yinyao’s heartfelt confession moved even Bai Wan’er and An Ruoqing, and from afar, Huang Zhou listened with a broken heart.

It dawned on him that Ye Qingfeng was the ’wood’ Bei Yinyao mentioned, making him feel like spitting blood in frustration.

Previously, Huang Zhan Yuan had comforted him, telling him not to pay attention to some idle person from the countryside, and he was confident, believing he could surpass this nebulous figure in every aspect.

But now it was clear, this was no commoner; Ye Qingfeng was an invincible Devilish presence. What could Huang Zhou compare to?

In terms of martial prowess, Ye Qingfeng could leave him far behind; in terms of power, Ye Qingfeng was unparalleled across Jiangnan and Jiangbei, looking down on all Devilish Martial Artists in Huaxia.

Yet, he was only the Young Master of the Huang Family, lacking actual authority.

When it came to wealth, behind Ye Qingfeng stood the entire Nine Tribulations commercial empire; his own worth would need to be multiplied by billions to compare.

Even his only comparable quality, his looks, Ye Qingfeng surpassed on the spot, with no comparison possible.

This was a total crushing in all aspects.

Faced with Bei Yinyao’s sincere and genuine words, even a stone Buddha might awaken back into a real person.

Yet, Ye Qingfeng still remained unfazed, his face cold.

They say having great romantic fortune is a blessing sought for lifetimes, but Ye Qingfeng didn’t see it as a pleasure; he only saw trouble.

An ’Ouyang’ lingered in his heart, and even though so much time had passed, that longing hadn’t faded at all; rather it became more intoxicating like well-aged wine.

To him, no other girl aside from ’Ouyang’ could fill his heart, not even the glamorous Bei Yinyao, a goddess idolized by countless admirers or high-flyers.

"Bei Yinyao, how you feel, I can’t decide that for you, but that’s your business!"

Ye Qingfeng said indifferently, "I only saved you along the way; you don’t need to feel like it’s some great indebtedness. For me, it was just a side act!"

"I’m not as good as you think. You saw earlier; I’m like a cold-blooded butcher, indifferent to life, with only a distinction between killing and not killing in my eyes. Do you think you’d love such a person?"

His tone was harsh, using every word to belittle himself, just to make Bei Yinyao let go of her obsession.

Of course, he understood Bei Yinyao’s thoughts, but he was no longer the Ye Qingfeng who wandered freely among the flowers.

He couldn’t let go of ’Ouyang’ in his heart, nor could he give anything to other girls. Instead of dragging it on, it was better to cut the ties entirely. With Bei Yinyao’s reputation and status, why worry about finding a suitable person?

Bei Yinyao’s pretty face displayed a faint smile; she rubbed the corner of her eye and softly said, "Whether you’re a cold-blooded butcher or indifferent to life, even if you’re a sinner blamed by thousands and scorned by ten thousand, I don’t care. I only know that as long as you’re ’wood,’ that’s enough for me."

"Alright, since you say it doesn’t matter what I think and that’s my affair, I’ll keep being willful!" Bei Yinyao suddenly seemed to transform into a sweet and playful little girl, smiling sweetly.

"You can see me as a burden, a hindrance, but I’ll tell you, ’wood,’ you’ll never be rid of me in this lifetime. Even if you have a girlfriend, if you get married, I’ll cling to you, never letting go!"

At this moment, Bei Yinyao was acting like a complete rogue, stunning everyone. When had they ever seen such a side of Bei Yinyao?

"Phew!"

Ye Qingfeng exhaled, shaking his head in utter helplessness.

"Do as you please; I can’t explain it to you!"

He turned around to leave, and Bei Yinyao grabbed his sleeve to follow alongside, matching her pace with his, a persistent and unshakeable presence.

She wanted to inquire about the condition of Huang Zhan Yuan and the others, but when she turned her head, she discovered they were already gone.

Watching the oddly paired duo, Bai Wan’er and An Ruoqing felt a mix of emotions in their hearts.

They never anticipated Ye Qingfeng would be the ’wood’ Bei Yinyao professed to marry solely to, such coincidences do not happen in this world.

"This guy, why didn’t I notice before, that he’s so lucky in love? Tsk tsk, she’s the national idol Bei Yinyao!"

An Ruoqing said a bit sourly, unsure if she was jealous of Ye Qingfeng or Bei Yinyao.

Bai Wan’er frowned slightly, realizing that her competition seemed to extend beyond just ’Ouyang.’ The impressive young man was surrounded by girls each more outstanding than the last.

The events on the outer ring road, with Lei Ye and others at Ye Qingfeng’s direction, were already moving to clean up the aftermath.

And the dominating Ye Jiujie was now facing his most troublesome issue.

He looked at Bei Yinyao, sitting across from him on the sofa, curling her jade legs, and he covered his forehead.

"Are you sure you haven’t made a mistake? You’re telling me you want to live here?"

Ye Qingfeng pinched his chin, his face full of helplessness.

If it were someone like An Ruoqing, he would have outright issued an eviction, but Bei Yinyao was different. This girl had been with him in a small cave for months. As cold as he was, he couldn’t harden his heart against her.
