Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Captain, Boss Ye, they’re here.”
A moment later, Chang Ling and his two subordinates came with a person. In the middle was Captain Gong, the person in charge. Chang Ling said, “The other subordinates in the team he led are all guarded by our people. There will definitely be no problems.”
“Everyone has worked hard. Arrange for a team to guard the periphery. The rest of you, count the number of people, clean up the battlefield, and transport the injured back to the army first.” Shan Yue gave the next order. “Leave him here. I want to see what he wants to say after going through so much trouble.” After saying that, Shan Yue pondered for a moment. “Chang Ling, go outside and receive him. Zhou Xuan should come over immediately after finding a place to land. Just let him come here to find me.”
“No problem, President Shan.” After making full preparations, Chang Ling closed the door and went to deal with the matters outside.
In the room, the three of them looked at each other. The scene was very quiet. Finally, Captain Gong was the first to break the atmosphere. He sized up Shan Yue meaningfully and said his first sentence.
“My surname is Gong, and I’m the captain of the reinforcement team. I know that the person sitting on the left is the boss of the mercenary group, Ye Ying. I just don’t know who this lady on the right is. I’ve never heard of the famous Boss Ye having any friends of the opposite sex or girlfriend.”
Captain Gong knew very well how Sect Master Cang felt about Ye Ying. Seeing the scene in front of him, he naturally had to figure out the exact situation so that he could report to Cang Xin.
“Who I am doesn’t seem to have anything to do with what you’re about to say, right?” Shan Yue replied to Captain Gong indifferently, not taking it to heart at all. “Could it be that Captain Gong’s words are still affected by someone being present?”
“Of course.” Captain Gong didn’t hesitate at all and immediately answered Shan Yue’s question. “Since my request is to meet Sect Master Ye alone, I definitely don’t want outsiders to be present.”
However, before Shan Yue could reply to his question, Ye Ying spoke first. “She’s my friend. It’s because of her that I was spared by Duo Feng this time.” “Your friend?” Captain Gong’s words were filled with mockery. With just a few words, he was certain that Shan Yue was just an idiot who only had looks around Ye Ying, so he became casual. “In that case, with her status and position, she shouldn’t have the right to sit here and listen to these things, right? You’d better go out for a while. There are some things you can’t listen to. 1 have to talk to Boss Ye alone.”
When Shan Yue heard this, she did not react much. Instead, she sat quietly in her seat and waited for Ye Ying’s attitude.
As expected, just as Shan Yue had expected, Ye Ying felt that Shan Yue had been offended. Without any hesitation, he stood firmly on her side and scolded loudly, “The two of you, kick him out directly. Get lost as far as you can.”
One had to know that Ye Ying had always been friendly in the mercenary group, and he usually wouldn’t have such an attitude. The sudden abnormality made the two guards beside him not dare to slack off too much. They immediately followed the orders.
“Sect Master Ye… why?” Captain Gong was very confused by Ye Ying’s sudden anger and said helplessly.
“Who do you think you are? Do you really think you’ve played a big role by killing a few people who surrendered? Who gave you the guts to question the people around me as soon as you came in?”
Ye Ying had always valued Shan Yue’s matters more than his life. “I’m already giving you enough respect by letting you meet me here alone now. Don’t be so shameless. Either finish speaking quickly, or get out and die with those people.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the two guards had already grabbed Captain Gong from the left and right.
Captain Gong was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake. “I’m sorry, Boss Ye. It’s my fault. I’ll talk.”
Since he had already said that, Ye Ying waved his hand to signal the two guards to let go of him first..
