Chapter 624 People’s hearts are fickle
In the living room of the old residence of the Xiao family, the top wealthy family in the imperial capital, the youngest and most promising head of the family was tied up in his living room.
The housekeeper and the servants stood in a row at the entrance, secretly squinting at the scene inside, and then shook their heads with a look of regret.
awful.
It's so miserable.
Ye Lan searched Xiao Yunting's soul.
The battle that nearly destroyed the earth seven years ago is still vivid in his mind. As a member of the battle, Qin Han witnessed Ye Lan's extraordinary methods and his boss's sacrifice for Ye Lan.
So when Boss returned a year ago and fell in love with another woman, he felt something was wrong.
Even though Qu Yueqing is known as the number one lady in the imperial capital and the most beautiful and talented woman in the capital, compared with Ye Lan who saves the world, she is still not even a star.
What's more, he knows Xiao Yunting.
My boss is definitely not someone who changes his mind easily, otherwise he would not hand over all his property. It is said that the Xuanzong clan husband has strict rules. Not only does he require three virgins and nine strong men, but he is also not allowed to eat at the table. This allows the boss to use all his wealth to It's definitely true love.
Of course, the latter were revealed to him by the Xuanzong elders.
In short, he supports Ye Lan and trusts all her actions.
Ye Lan uses the simplest and crudest soul-searching technique, using his own soul as a medium to forcibly intervene in the sea of consciousness of others. This will not only cause intense pain, but also easily stimulate the brain nerves, causing irreparable damage.
She only used three golden needles to pierce the big points in advance to protect Xiao Yunting's nervous system before taking action.
"Well!"
The soul-suppressing handprint slapped his forehead directly, forcing his brain to shut down.
Since there was no explanation in advance, and Xiao Yunting's sense of resistance was very strong, he frowned and grunted from time to time throughout the soul searching process, appearing to be extremely painful.
By the time the soul search was over, the tall, thin and powerful man had fallen on the sofa, dripping with sweat as if he had been fished out of the water, and could not even move a finger.
Ye Lan put away Han Jue and silently sat back on the sofa opposite.
Qin Han stepped forward to adjust the posture of his Boss and covered him with a thin quilt. Then he turned around and asked, "Miss Ye, how are you?"
"..." After a long while, Ye Lan shook his head and said in a clear voice, "There is no problem."
Neither his memory was forcibly tampered with, nor his body occupied by other souls.
The Xiao Yunting in front of him is the original him.
Qin Han was stunned. He did not expect this result. He looked at his Boss and then at Ye Lan, and stood up knowingly, "Then I will deal with the concert first."
After saying that, he strode out of the living room and left the old house, making room for the two of them to talk.
Seeing that the momentum was not right, the others also retreated.
Xiao Yunting's willpower was astonishing. After a short break, he sat up straight again and met Ye Lan's gaze again.
Being kidnapped like a clown in front of a city full of celebrities and subjected to such torture, he thought he would be very angry and want to kill the woman opposite him immediately.
But when he raised his eyes to look at her, he saw a trace of confusion in her cold eyes. Xiao Yunting's heart tightened suddenly, and there was actually a trace of pain.
The pain was worse than soul searching, and it made him frown again.
"Why are you making such an expression?"
Wasn't he extremely powerful just now?
Ye Lan didn't answer him, just stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking up at the sky.
Xiao Yunting was not a patient person at all. Even if he was pursuing Qu Yueqing, he would not allow him to go without answering questions.
But as if he couldn't control it, his eyes still fell on the figure by the window.
The woman's figure is graceful and graceful, but she is also very thin and lonely.
After a moment of silence, Xiao Yunting walked up to her and said in a deep voice without any trace of anger, "Because I have no feelings for you, so I am sad? But you should understand that human emotions are the most fragile and insecure in the world. I won’t take back the property, aren’t these more practical?”
He didn't know what was going on, so he easily gave up his extremely wealthy assets as compensation for the breakup.
Because he didn't like seeing the expression on her face.
She also felt that she should understand that love or non-love is a very nihilistic thing. Other women may indulge in it, but in Xiao Yunting's intuition, the person in front of her will not stick to this.
Ye Lan always looked calm when he heard that he had received a huge breakup fee out of thin air.
"Xiao Yunting, I will return those things to you later." She spoke suddenly, her voice was clear and clear, her eyes were always on the clear blue sky, as if she was recalling the time they chatted in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on a night separated by darkness and sun many years ago. Scenes.
After a while, she retracted her thoughts, turned to look at Xiao Yunting, and reached out her hand to gently cover his heart.
Xiao Yunting has a serious mysophobia and doesn't like physical contact, but at this moment, he has no urge to avoid it.
The slightly cool palm came over, no longer as cold as when the spell was cast, and the soft little hand carried a hint of tenderness.
"I just don't want to give up on our relationship without making any efforts." Ye Lan felt the steady and calm heartbeat and finally felt relieved, "But maybe you are right, people's hearts are fickle. Since you have already treated me If you don’t feel anything, then I respect your choice.”
"Goodbye."
After the last two words fell softly, she slowly withdrew her hand and walked towards the door.
Xiao Yunting suddenly began to palpitate violently, his fingertips curled up, and there was an urge in his heart to reach out and hold Ye Lan.
But his strong self-control finally overcame his body's movements. It wasn't until the slender figure disappeared at the door of the old house that he looked down at the fingerprints on his palm, frowning a little tighter.
The next day, everyone in the emperor knew that the leader of the Xiao family was kidnapped by a female bully at the proposal site.
Although the media cameras at the time were shattered, the chips were burned, and no photos were preserved, the story was spread word of mouth by gossipy citizens and the story became a new trend in the imperial capital.
Only when the story reached the ears of the elders of Xuanzong in the ancient martial arts world did they know the details of what happened at the concert that day.
"Hey, the clan leader didn't bring him back, and he didn't say a word after that. It seems that our clan leader is in trouble." As the chief elder of the group, Nan Xu is both a father and a mother, so it's not easy to find someone he likes. The choice of clan wife was very eye-catching. Last time, he boasted that he had made a lot of rules with Qin and Han, but he didn't expect that they would become obsolete in a blink of an eye.
The other people were also at a loss.
"If there is a way, we don't have to wait until the clan leader wakes up to take action himself. The medical fairy has already diagnosed the disease, and I think the clan leader has given up."
"Hey, don't make it sound like no one wants the clan leader, okay? Now that "Hundred Demons Strategy" is in the spotlight, who doesn't admire our clan leader? Holding a marriage recruitment meeting will definitely be as grand as it was back then."
"Yes, how could I have forgotten this!" Nan Xu patted her forehead and saw the light of day. She stood up and passed through the corridor of the courtyard into the study. "Chief, let's hold another marriage recruitment meeting?"
Marriage recruitment meeting?
In front of the desk, Ye Lan, who was spreading rice paper and drawing with a pen, paused when he heard the words. Nan Xu was afraid that she would disagree and wanted to continue speaking, so she responded softly, "That's okay, you go ahead and make preparations."
