Chapter 1716

Ye Qingli's heart sank to the bottom of the abyss!

Was she really going to die here today?

Just as she despairingly closed her eyes.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the room's door was violently thrown open!

A streak of Jin Guang shot in!

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang…"

Three men flew out like kites with cut strings!

"Crash!"

They crashed heavily to the ground!

"Crack! Crack!"

Their bones shattered completely!

Ye Qingli opened her eyes!

Right before her stood a new figure!

"Who are you!"

She stared at that utterly familiar face.

Her face broke into ecstatic joy!

At that moment, that face had changed to Yun Feng!

"Haha, Qingli sister, long time no see—I've finally found you!"

He swept Ye Qingli up in his arms!

"We've met again!"

"Yun Feng brother!"

Ye Qingli's tears streamed down in excitement.

"How did you get here too?"

"Did you forget? We're childhood sweethearts—we'll never be apart for the rest of our lives, right?"

He gently stroked her long hair.

Ye Qingli felt a warm, soothing sensation bloom in her heart.

This was the feeling she had always longed for.

Unfortunately, this feeling had never once been realized—throughout it all.

But now, this tenderness was undeniably real.

Ye Qingli's cheeks flushed slightly.

"Yun Feng brother…"

Just then, footsteps sounded outside!

Then, several armored guards burst in!

"Young Master, what happened outside?"

Ximen Wudi frowned.

"Nothing. Just two people who don't know the rules."

"Yes, your servant takes his leave."

The guards immediately withdrew.

"Qingli sister, come with me—stay by my side from now on. I swear, I'll never let you suffer."

Ximen Wudi said with a smile.

"By the way, these three are newly recruited guards—I haven't had time to introduce them to you yet. Let me introduce you, so you won't be taken advantage of later."

"Alright."

Ye Qingli nodded.

"What's your name?"

"Your servant is Li Hu."

"Hmm, good name—tiger's body shakes, majestic and awe-inspiring—perfect for my taste."

Ye Qingli said with a smile.

Li Hu's eyes blazed with ecstatic joy.

He had finally won Miss Ye's favor!

This was what he had dreamed of his whole life!

"Your servant Li Hu, pays homage to Miss."

Saying this, he knelt down and bowed three respectful bows.

"Hmm."

Ye Qingli nodded.

"Rise."

At this moment, Ximen Wudi looked at Ye Qingli with utter contempt.

Hmph, these people are nothing but country bumpkins—can't even grasp basic etiquette, so embarrassing!

Clearly, he'd have to Yaohaohao teach these people a lesson later!

Let them know what it means to respect rank!

"Right, Ye Qing, you still haven't told me your surname?"

Ximen Wudi asked with a smile.

"My name is Ye Qing."

Ye Qingli said coolly.

"Mm, a very nice-sounding name. From now on, you'll be my personal maid. From now on, you'll live in the eastern courtyard of our manor."

"Mm."

Ye Qingli nodded.

"However, before that, I hope you handle this matter properly. Otherwise, you'll bear the consequences yourself!"

Ximen Wudi said with a cold smile.

"You bunch of trash, get out of here right now!"

"Yes."

The four guards quickly stood up, then slunk out of the room!

After they left, Ximen Wudi finally released his grip.

At that moment, Ye Qingli's body suddenly felt an intense pain!

"Ouch."

She couldn't help crying out.

This guy's strike was way too vicious.

To actually use such a ruthless hand.

Not only did he slash her clothes, he also threw her to the ground!

"Sister Qingli, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"These guards were originally here to spy on me, so their lives must be left behind."

"Moreover, they don't deserve to be my personal guards—they should be handed over to better people to discipline!"

After saying that, Ximen Wudi walked straight out.

After he left.
