Chapter 987: Sharp Sixth Sense
The sunlight from outside the window shone on Diya’s face. It was half-light and half-dark, making her face look even more exquisite and beautiful like a painting.
Although Ming Ye did not care about beauty or ugliness in her heart, looking at Diya smiling as she fed Meow Meow, he suddenly felt a lot of pity in his heart.
He had no parents, no brothers or sisters. He was created with such an unbearable method. He could not even be considered a real “person.” He did not understand what the so-called family and so-called kinship were.
However… a person who could be born normally should be much happier than himself, right?
And now…
Ming Ye knew what kind of disaster would befall him if he angered the powerful ruler of the God’s Palace.
The high priest was a temperamental person. She could make a person’s life worse than death with a simple method, not to mention that the Siswell family was conspiring against the high priest!
Now that Diya’s brother Fiennes was dead, if what Ming Ye had thought was right, the entire mansion of the Siswell family was probably sealed.
As for Diya’s parents and other relatives…
Whether they could survive or not, there was a huge question mark.
Even if they managed to survive on their last breath, they would most likely either spend their lives in prison or end up with an even more miserable ending. For example, they would end up as test subjects of the high priest’s underground experiments.
As someone who had grown up in that laboratory, no one understood the horror of that laboratory better than Ming Ye.
If one had to describe it, it would be that he would rather die than live!
…
Thousands of thoughts flashed through Ming Ye’s mind. However, he had always been used to being expressionless. There was still no change in his expression.
He fixed his gaze on the girl who was still carefree not far away. For a moment, he did not know what to do with Diya.
Ming Ye had kidnapped Diya in order to save Su Wan. He was prepared to send Diya back to the Siswell family after Su Wan was rescued.
But now, it seemed that the existence of the Siswell family was uncertain.
His unconscious actions could also be considered to have saved Diya’s life.
However, Ming Ye had always been a wanderer in the world. Moreover, he had the wish to assassinate the high priest. It was impossible for Diya to stay by his side all the time.
Ming Ye did not know what suitable time to tell Diya about the disaster that happened today.
How heavy would the news of her entire family being exterminated be for an eighteen-year-old girl?
…
After a day of feeding and playing, the gray-black stray cat no longer disliked Diya as it did before. It also had a lot of intimacy with Diya from its movements.
Just when Diya was having fun with Meow Meow, she suddenly felt a cold gaze falling directly on her.
She did not move for a long time.
Eh, Ming Ye was actually looking at her? And he was so engrossed in it?
A feeling of surprise and joy surfaced in Diya’s heart. She had always liked Ming Ye. Now that she was blinded by joy, she actually did not feel the pity in his gaze at all.
Diya hugged Meow Meow in a good mood. Her slender hands brushed the fur on Meow Meow’s belly little by little, causing the little stray cat to keep crawling into her arms. Its eyes were curved into the shape of a crescent moon.
“Dull gourd, why do you keep looking at me like that? Could it be that you are slow to realize my beauty?”
Diya looked at Ming Ye teasingly. Her amber eyes were clear and flawless.
Hearing that Diya had suddenly given him the nickname of “dull gourd,” Ming Ye’s slender brows creased without a trace.
“My name Is Ming Ye, not dull gourd.”
A deep voice swept past her ears. There was no trace of a joking tone at all. Instead, it was very solemn.
When Diya heard that, she suddenly burst out laughing.
“I don’t care. Dull gourd, dull gourd. I’m going to call you that. It’s none of your business.”
Ming Ye frowned slightly when he saw Diya making so much noise.
He was actually a person who did not like noise.
However, with the current situation, he felt sympathy for Diya. In the end, he did not refute Diya’s words.
Seeing that Ming Ye pursed his thin lips and did not say anything, Diya almost jumped up as if she had discovered a new world.
“Look, look, I told you that you are a dull gourd. You fell silent after saying a few words, yet you still refuse to admit it.”
Seeing that Diya was so heartless, Ming Ye actually heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
He raised his head indifferently and finally found a side way to get ready to cut into the matter of how to settle Diya.
“Diya, do you have any friends that you can trust?”
He had a special status and was burdened with such a heavy hatred. It was impossible for him to have a burden like Diya by his side. That would only hinder Ming Ye’s plan.
Therefore, finding a safe and secure place for Diya to be entrusted to was the most important thing that needed to be resolved at this moment.
When Diya heard this, she was suddenly stunned. She even stopped teasing the kitten.
“Why did you suddenly ask this? Could it be that… you want to send me away?!”
When Diya said the second half of her sentence, her originally lively eyes suddenly had an indescribable sadness.
How could she say that she was actually quite happy staying at Ming Ye’s place.
Although she did not have the kind of luxurious life where she could stretch out her hands and eat food, being able to tease the kitten every day and seeing the person she liked all the time, this was something that could not be compared to anywhere else!
The feelings of a young girl were always poetry. It was the best way to describe the current Diya.
Even if Ming Ye was indifferent to Diya, and he would usually leave Diya aside, it was good whenever he said a few words. Diya still felt happy!
It was also a magical brain circuit…
In any case, Meow Meow, who was nestled in Diya’s arms, was already speechless. According to its observation, its cheap owner must be a masochist!
Ming Ye looked at Diya indifferently, his expression as calm as the lake.
“You can’t stay here forever.”
Ming Ye was stating a fact, and it did not contain any emotions.
But when Diya heard that, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
Suddenly, Diya remembered something!
Her eyes widened, and she looked at Ming Ye with some hesitation, her expression uncertain.
“Is today the wedding of my brother and Su Wan? Are you determined to find a family member that I trust and send me back to the Siswell family after seeing that Su Wan has completely married my brother?”
“No, Su Wan didn’t marry your brother and the wedding didn’t go through.”
Ming Ye avoided the main point. However, Diya suddenly realized that something was wrong.
According to her understanding, her brother Fiennes was definitely not the kind of person who would give up easily. The possibility of Su Wan escaping the marriage on her own was also very small…
Thinking carefully about what Ming Ye had said at the beginning, he did not mean to send her to the Siswell family. Instead, he had asked about her friends.
Thinking about her brother’s actions in the past few months, openly gathering various forces to enter the God’s Palace, Diya’s heart sank.
Her crimson lips opened and closed for a long time. After a long while, she finally managed to say these words with much difficulty.
“Did… something happen to my brother?”
