On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness-Chapter 166 - : Indecent Act
Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Indecent Act
To appear unnoticed and then shackle her, among those who had crossed fists with her before, there was only one man capable of such feats, Ye Yiheng, that madman.
Leng Yu Yan looked up, and there he was.
His eyes were covered with an eye veil, rendering his expressions invisible; all she felt from his face was a chilling coldness.
“The great Crown Prince resorts to a sneak attack—when word gets out, what a story it will make!”
Ye Yiheng responded indifferently, “It’s clear you’re the one lost in thought.”
She hadn’t heard his footsteps at all.
His somewhat icy voice made Leng Yu Yan’s heart sink.
Just now, as she gazed upon Jiangzhou City, she pondered how her mother had been deceived by just a few words from Leng Zongfa years ago. To leave her homeland, to leave her parents, to marry Leng Zongfa and move to the capital—what must have her state of mind been?
At that moment, restrained by the blind man, Leng Yu Yan struggled: “Please let go of me, Your Highness. This kind of pulling is not proper conduct!”
“What if I do not let go?” Ye Yiheng removed his eye veil, his large hand clasping her cheek.
The girl before him had skin smooth like cream, every inch tender and every part lustrous.
Unknowingly, he swallowed hard.
His gaze momentarily focused, his grip unknowingly tightened.
Rubbing, kneading, pinching.
Seeing his cold and devouring eyes, Leng Yu Yan knew he could see again.
The way he pinched her face seemed as if he was toying with her. The pain almost brought her to tears.
Behind Qingfu Temple, where few tread, she feared no one would hear her if she called for help.
She placed her hands against his chest, pushing hard.
But the man’s chest was like an iron wall; she couldn’t push him an inch.
“Let me go!”
Her voice held a sob.
Hearing this, Ye Yiheng’s handsome brows furrowed slightly: “Leng Yu Yan, I have said before—you are not to leave my side!”
“The marriage grant is annulled, how can I not leave?”
As the man’s body inched closer, Leng Yu Yan was terrified.
Just then, she heard the hurried footsteps. She turned her head, seeing Ji Qingyu coming to her rescue, she quickly called out: “Qingyu, save me!”
Ji Qingyu teleported instantly, swinging a fierce punch at Ye Yiheng’s cheek.
Feeling the pain on his face, Ye Yiheng shifted his jaw and released Leng Yu Yan, retaliating with a palm strike.
In just a moment, the two were embroiled in a fierce fight.
Leng Yu Yan could barely make out their forms.
“Stop fighting!”
“Stop fighting!”
It seemed as though the two men couldn’t hear her cries; in a flash, Leng Yu Yan pulled out two silver needles from her sleeve, her bare hand twirling them before they flew out.
The silver needles struck Ye Yiheng and Ji Qingyu right on the tendons of their wrists.
Feeling a numbness in their hands, the two men finally ceased their clash.
Leng Yu Yan looked down, retrieving the silver needles one by one and placed them back into her sleeve.
Her voice was cold: “Your Highness, if you dare treat me like this again in the future, don’t blame me for not being courteous!”
Ye Yiheng reached out to grab her wrist, but unexpectedly, she dodged and hid behind Ji Qingyu.
Seeing her small hand tightly clutching Ji Qingyu’s clothes, hiding from him like he was a fierce wild animal, while Ji Qingyu seemed to shield her from the storm, a pain arose in him without reason.
Ji Qingyu, feeling the place where the silver needle had pricked his wrist, glanced provocatively at Ye Yiheng and gently said to Leng Yu Yan: “Ah Yan, let’s go.”
Leng Yu Yan nodded slightly, her steps following Ji Qingyu as they left.
“Qingyu, how come you are here?”
She suspected the blind man was tracking her.
“Today, I came here for a matter, encountering you was truly a coincidence.”
Hearing it was a coincidence, Leng Yu Yan was reassured and seeing his warm smile, she curved the corners of her lips, “Thank you for coming to my rescue!”
Ji Qingyu’s smile grew even more amicable, “He’s just a madman. Should he ever act inappropriately again, you may jab your silver needle a bit deeper.”
As they walked side by side, the pain in Ye Yiheng’s heart spread rapidly at the sight of Ji Qingyu’s smiling eyes.
Leng Yu Yan, you belong to me!
No matter what, you cannot escape from the palm of my hand!
The two entered Qingfu Temple.
Hearing Leng Yu Yan ask why they had come, Ji Qingyu did not hide it from her, candidly saying, “We came to the temple to get a topographic map.”
“Topographic map, doesn’t the state government have one?” Leng Yu Yan was somewhat puzzled.
“The state government does have a topographic map, but it does not indicate the elevations,” Ji Qingyu sighed.
No wonder his efforts at dredging the river were so ineffective; he had never considered this aspect.
Unbeknownst to Ji Qingyu, Ye Yiheng had learned that in Qingfu Temple, there was a monk who had traveled around Jiangzu, studying the terrain and had drawn a topographic map of Jiangzhou, showing the elevations.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.
To legitimately obtain the main control over the project, Ye Yiheng brought him to Qingfu Temple.
After getting the topographic map, Ye Yiheng said he wanted to discuss his doubts with the master.
At the time, he didn’t pay it much mind and wandered around the temple with his people when he suddenly saw that several siblings from the Zhang Family were all present, and he immediately thought of a possibility.
After searching the temple quickly and not finding Leng Yu Yan, he then went outside the temple.
That’s when he saw that scene.
Fortunately, he acted in time, otherwise who knows what that blind man would have done to Ah Yan.
Leng Yu Yan returned to the spot where she had split up with her cousins.
After the agreed hour had passed, the Zhang siblings came one after another and directly went to offer incense.
Leng Yu Yan dared not split up from her cousins, afraid that Ye Yiheng, that madman, would pop up out of nowhere again.
And Ji Qingyu also stayed close by her side.
Although she had her cousins and Ji Qingyu by her side, Leng Yu Yan still felt uneasy, as if a pair of sinister, sharp eyes were constantly watching her.
From the top of the high tower, Ye Yiheng gazed at her figure.
It was only when the master called him that he came back to his senses.
—
Having obtained the new topographic map, for the following few days, both Ye Yiheng and Ji Qingyu were busy.
Seeing the water level outside Jiangzhou City gradually decrease, Leng Yu Yan felt like returning to Linqing Pavilion.
Before going back, she wanted to spend quality time with her maternal grandmother.
Elder Mrs. Zhang, watching her granddaughter beautiful as flowers, was very delighted, as the girl had been keeping her company these days.
Even Yu Meng and Yu Jing had never been so obedient.
Those two girls could never sit still, they would humor her for a bit, then run off to play.
Elder Mrs. Zhang affectionately patted Leng Yu Yan’s hand, smilingly asked, “Nannan, what kind of man do you want to marry in the future?”
Leng Yu Yan shook her head, “Grandmother, I don’t want to marry.”
The stunningly beautiful young girl having no aspiration towards marriage worried Elder Mrs. Zhang, was it the Tian Family’s broken engagement that cast a shadow over her or did her mother’s failed marriage influence her?
“Nannan, don’t always just keep company with grandmother, an old lady. Go out and have fun. If you see a young man you like, go ahead and ask his full name; let your uncle vet him at that time.”
Their Zhang Family, if nothing else, had plenty of money.
Leng Yu Yan laughed out loud, “To be able to do this, how novel.”
Unbeknownst to others who might think the customs in Jiangnan are liberal, it was actually because the Zhang Family had a lot of money, and many sought to establish relations with them.
For the daughter of the Zhang Family looking for a desirable young man, there were simply more tactics available. No one found it odd; everyone wanted to tie some marital relations with their family.
Just then, Zhang Yumeng came in.
Elder Mrs. Zhang then pointed to her, “When going out tomorrow, be sure to take your cousin with you!”
