Chapter 31 No Means No!

After an unknown period of time, the sound of struggling limbs could be heard in the quiet night.

Ye Xingguang looked over. Under the moonlight, the man’s brows were already tightly furrowed. It was obvious that he couldn’t care less about his dignity and prestige as a demon king. He almost exerted all his strength to break free from the restraints on his body.

“How about I help you remove the chains?” Ye Xingguang asked.

“No.” Ye Junqing refused firmly.

“But I see that you’re in so much pain…” As Ye Xingguang spoke, he had already moved the blanket on the man’s body to the side. When he was caught off guard, she saw that his wrists had been scrapped because of his struggle. Judging from the red marks, he must have been struggling secretly. He just didn’t make any sound.

“Stop enduring it. Where’s the key? I’ll unlock the chains for you, or your wrists will be bruised. It’s already purple now.”

Ye Junqing gritted his teeth so hard that he shook. He used his strong willpower to stop himself from struggling. “No means no!”

“Why are you so stubborn? If you leave a wound on your wrist, those unscrupulous media companies might tell the public that I abused you tomorrow when they find out.” Ye Xingguang said shamelessly. Perhaps what she said was too funny, his tensed cheeks trembled terribly.

Seeing that she was looking around for the keys, Ye Junqing frowned. He couldn’t understand this troublesome mermaid. She used to be so annoying and hated him. Even if he died in the wilderness, she probably wouldn’t feel sorry for him. And now, she was acting like she cared about him. Who was she trying to show this to?

“Found it. Is this it?”

Ye Xingguang found four metal keys strung together in the drawer of the coffee table beside the couch.

Ye Junqing glanced at her and his eyes darkened. “No.”

“Looks like it is.”

Ye Xingguang held the keys and crouched in front of him, trying one key after another. In the end, she did unlock the chain around his left foot.

“Ye Xingguang!”

Ye Junqing’s deep gaze landed on the top of the girl’s head as he pursed his pale lips. “I advise you not to provoke me or unlock the chains for me. Otherwise, you’ll regret it.”

Ye Xingguang thought, “It’s alright, I have the Medicine of Regret!”

So, she didn’t hesitate to remove the chains.

Damn it, this woman!

The man who was freed didn’t feel grateful at all. Instead, he wished he could strangle Ye Xingguang to death.

However, Ye Junqing’s real action was to get up suddenly, push her away and walk out. He could no longer stay in the same room with her. Ye Junqing didn’t forget how much she used to be afraid of him and hate him…

Ye Xingguang was worried. She chased after him and asked, “Hey, where are you going?”

Ye Junqing shouted, “Stop following me!”

If she didn’t want to leave, he would!

“Do you think I want to care about you? It’s all because you’re the man I picked. Since you’re the man I picked, I can’t let the Civil Affairs Bureau see anything wrong even if I want to cry. Who knows if the Civil Affairs Bureau will come for a home visit tomorrow?”

Ye Junqing was like a beast avoiding a flood. He ran from the third floor to the first floor, trying to leave this villa.

When he walked to the living room, his tall and big body staggered. Ye Xingguang was like a small rocket as she rushed over and exerted all her strength to help the cold man to sit on the couch in the living room.

She used both her hands to press on Ye Junqing’s broad shoulders, not allowing him to get up. “Stay away from me, or…”

Ye Junqing suppressed his anger. Before he finished talking, his hands that had become stiff after being restrained had already pulled Ye Xingguang into his arms like a pillow…
