Chapter 292
The ink-dark night sky was cold .
Third Young Master Ye and Ning Ning were playing games when Ye Wei and Ning Ning visited .
It was almost 11 p . m . and most were in deep sleep . As the Ye family typically slept late, Miss Cheng was always attentive and sharp at night despite how tired she was in the day . She, however, would not sleep before midnight .
She was on the internet reading gossip, chatting, and arguing online . She was having one whale of a time .
Ning Ning was also a late sleeper thanks to the summer break because he did not need to go to school and could wake up late . He would be on an alcohol-high at night and pull Third Young Master Ye to bash through levels in the latest video games with him .
Upstairs, Miss Cheng heard father and son bellowing and having a good time . “Men!” She pouted .
When Ye Wei pressed the bell, father and son were at the last level . As the sound from the video game room was deafening, Ye Wei and Eleven took a glance at each other . Since sneakily opening someone else’s door was not the most polite thing to do, Ye Wei took out her silver gun and fired at the crystal lamp in the mansion .
The crisp sound of crystal shattering, accompanied by the gunshot, quieted the mansion .
“Third brother, so you are finally willing to come out, huh?” Ye Wei smiled alluringly . Her smile agitated the wound on her face and the pain from it distorted her alluring smile .
Ye Chen, Ning Ning, and Cheng Anya came out . Cheng Anya heard Ye Wei’s voice at the staircase landing and could not help but raise her thumb . Ye Wei was outstanding enough to shush that father-son duo who had been creating a racket for more than an hour .
While it was one hell of a doorbell, Cheng Anya was aghast when she saw Ye Wei . Who would have the guts to wallop the top international hitman into such a shape? Ning Ning whistled and Ye Wei threw a stare across . Her stare sent the young kid into a tender and elegant laughter .
It was really…
Something one would never get to see in a long time .
He suddenly turned around and returned to his study room to get his camera to share the photograph in the chat group .
“Wei Wei, what happened to you?” Ye Chen was very surprised . Ye Wei and Eleven had tidied themselves up before coming over, and while Eleven was not wounded, Ye Wei’s injuries were very obvious . Mo Jue did not go easy on them and the strangulation marks on Ye Wei’s neck were clearly visible . Ye Wei also had visible bruises on her forehead and face, all of which were unbearable to see .
“I got beaten!” Ye Wei downplayed it . As she recalled what happened that evening, she was exceptionally troubled and even wondered whether Mo Jue would point at his little brother and ask Louis why it swelled .
Or that adulterous image of him toying with his tool in the bathroom… Ye Wei found herself awed by her scattered thoughts .
Cheng Anya went into the kitchen to prepare a glass of fruit juice each for Ye Wei and Eleven .
As she put down the glass of fruit juice, Ye Wei saw a weird look in her eyes . As Miss Cheng was quick-thinking and wise-cracking she saw the coldness and judging look in Ye Wei’s gaze then slowly backed away .
“Thanks, third sister-in-law . ” Ye Wei smiled as she supported her face and lamented in pain a few times . Ning Ning took a few photographs with the camera and smiled slyly . To think that his auntie would even have such a day .
Failing miserably at an easy task was a definite possibility .
Cheng Anya secretly wondered why Ye Wei looked at her in such a manner . It seemed to be a… questioning gaze as though she had done something unpardonable .
With that glance, Ye Wei dispelled the idea that Cheng Anya would betray her third brother . Although she did not know what Louis’ statement meant, she was, however, extremely certain that Cheng Anya would not be unfaithful toward her brother .
Her gaze was too innocent, and honestly, one with a guilty conscience would not look at her with such a gaze .
Maybe Louis knew she was in the room and deliberately put up a good act .
“Auntie, aren’t you very good? How did you get beaten into a pulp?” Ning Ning asked, laughing as he snuggled up next to his mother . He secretly wondered who would have been able to mess Ye Wei up this badly .
And he really could not think of anyone else .
Chu Li was equally skilled, and hearsay had it that… three Chu Li’s were not enough to take on Ye Wei . And to think such a badass woman lost…
Could it be Louis?
His heart grew cold .
“Darling, the title of ‘No . 1 killer’ really is a fluff . ” Ye Wei was clearly in a mood to joke about . Cheng Anya tucked her lips and thought how terrible Ye Wei looked as her beautiful face was all messed up .
“Who was it?” Ye Chen asked with a sunken face, his gaze burning with rage, knuckles cracking and brimming with murderous intent . Whoever did this to his sister was tired of living .
“Third brother, how can you beat whoever I couldn’t? I’m not telling you lest you commit suicide . ” Ye Wei laughed alluringly . She had taken care of Mo Jue single-handedly, and thinking about encountering him again left her blood boiling .
If she did not take revenge when presented the opportunity, she was not Ye Wei .
Third Young Master Ye was aghast and Ning Ning, seeing Third Young Master Ye’s face, laughed and collapsed into Cheng Anya’s embrace .
“Daddy, you are being looked down upon . If you are to exchange blows with auntie, you are definitely not her match . ”
“That is not a given,” Ye Wei laughed heartily . Despite being injured, Ye Wei was still an aggressive fighter and not anybody could keep her at bay .
A smile brushed past Cheng Anya’s lips . Very good, now Third Young Master Ye was at a loss for words .
Eleven remained silent at a corner as she thought, ‘To downplay the seriousness of what is to come was undoubtedly Ye Wei . ’
“Damn girl, how do you know that I cannot beat you before we have even fought?” Third Young Master Ye coldly harrumphed . Having not gotten dirty in years did not mean that his skills had deteriorated .
“Third Brother, don’t be taken aback . Admit the facts . ”
Third Young Master Ye kept silent .
“Wei Wei, what exactly is going on?” Cheng Anya could not help but ask . As people who were equal to Ye Wei were few and far in the world, it did not make sense that she would end up being beaten in City A .
“Third brother, I went to GK Eastern Hotel today . ” Ye Wei told Third Young Master Ye flatly with a slightly distant gaze that had an aggressive coldness to it . “This Louis… is not Louis . ”
As he saw the coldness on Ye Wei’s face, Third Young Master Ye frowned . He had a bad premonition whilst Ning Ning was deep in thought . Auntie would not visit in the dead of the night unless it was something important .
“What’s going on?”
“His irises were black—pure black, just like ours,” Ye Wei said seriously despite the bruises on her face . “What I saw with my own eyes in his room was the reason he sent people after me . We had Louis’ background thoroughly checked out a long time ago . The emerald eyes are inherited . Young Louis was also a piano prodigy who rocked Vienna . The music sphere was once rife with rumors that a beautiful and talented musician had been born . As for the Louis that we know, he is clearly a fraud . ”
Black?
Third Young Master Ye’s heart jolted as Cheng Anya gathered her thoughts . As she recalled Louis’ emerald green gaze, the melancholy, the depth of his feelings and sadness, she shuddered . Could all these be a false impression?
What was the truth then?
Black irises… and to think the truth would seem so detached…
She had a bad feeling .
“Who is he?” Third Young Master Ye asked sternly, his gaze growing colder and his fists clenching uncontrollably .
“Third brother, a question for you . Did Ye Zhenhua look you up earlier today with the intention of letting Louis take over you in managing MBS International?” Ye Wei asked without emotion . Her impressive ability to pick up the subtleties were put to good use at the Ye family gate .
“That’s correct . The old man wants to pull me down and raise Louis . ” Third Young Master Ye was expressionless, to the point of distantly cold .
“Indeed . Given Ye Zhenhua’s character, wouldn’t you be extremely curious why he trusted Louis so easily? Why would he side with an outside rather than you?” Ye Wei coldly smiled .
Ye Wei’s question hit home with Third Young Master Ye’s doubts . He smiled, and his gaze grew even colder .
“Because Louis is no outsider . He is our own!” Ye Wei said deeply .
Third Young Master Ye, seeming to have remembered something, trembled as his face paled .
Cheng Anya wanted to comfort him only to hear him suddenly burst out, “Leave me alone!”
Cheng Anya frowned and did not say anything more .
“I have been to the Ye mansion earlier and saw Louis and Ye Yutang at the gate . Third brother, please do not get agitated when you hear this… I heard Ye Yutang call Louis… brother!” Ye Wei punctuated each word .
Ning Ning and Cheng Anya looked at each other in the eye as Third Young Master Ye’s eyes suddenly grew wide . At that moment, there was a thousand-yard stare in Third Young Master Ye’s eyes .
A sweeping fear and hatred, like an avalanche, immediately followed . As it closed in on him, the roiling memories surged into Third Young Master Ye’s mind and his body trembled .
“Ah Chen…”
“Brother…”
“Daddy…”
As the three of them gasped softly, Third Young Master Ye did not seem to have heard them . Cheng Anya, who was nearest to him, wanted to comfort him . Who would expect Third Young Master Ye to suddenly grab Cheng Anya’s hand and twist it . “Ahh…”
With her wrist almost broken by him, Cheng Anya’s face paled from the pain . She couldn’t help but slap Third Young Master Ye across the cheek .
There was a light slap .
Eleven, who had been staying alert, broke his grip loose with a move and saved Cheng Anya’s hand .
Had he used any more force, Cheng Anya’s hand would have been lost .
All happened too quickly and Cheng Anya was caught off guard . Ye Wei stood up and pulled Cheng Anya away . Cheng Anya, holding her swollen wrist, was almost tearing from the pain .
Third Young Master Ye, in a state of extreme madness, smashed the cedar table as he clutched his head and screamed nonstop in rage like a deranged person…
“Ahh…!!”
He sounded as though he was wailing .
“Ah Chen…” Cheng Anya kept looking at the deranged Third Young Master Ye until the pain from her wrist sobered her up .
It was a madness that she had yet to see .
It was extremely terrifying .
The roars of sadness carried a few hoarse hints of its repression .
Cheng Anya’s heart was bleeding to the point she did not know what to do .
Ning Ning’s tender face paled .
Ye Wei was shocked and gave Eleven a glance . Eleven quickly got to work and knocked Third Young Master Ye out without him noticing .
“Ah Chen!”
“Daddy…”
Cheng Anya quickly grabbed his collapsed form . Even though he had fainted, Third Young Master Ye’s body was still trembling . With his brows locked in a frown, cold sweat trickled down Third Young Master Ye’s forehead .
Her heart ached terribly .
“What’s with Daddy?” Ning Ning seriously asked as he suddenly turned up to look at Ye Wei . “Louis is Ye Yukun!” Ye Wei said deeply .
Cheng Anya let out a gasp .
She was beyond shock .
