Chapter 420 Don't waste your energy on him
“I’m scared, but I can’t hold back anymore. Yi Rou is so unlucky to have married such a man. Not only does he have a bad temper, but he also has a lot of enemies. Now I finally understand why Yan Ye deprived Yi Rou of her freedom and wouldn’t let her go out alone.”
"You mean, Young Master Ye is depriving Miss Yue of her freedom because he's worried about her safety?" Xu Shaojun asked, frowning.
Jiang Mengru said indignantly, "Isn't that right? He knows he has many enemies and is worried that they might harm Yi Rou, so he deprived her of her freedom, imprisoning her in Xingye Pavilion all day long, forbidding her to go out freely, let alone go out alone. Yi Rou is really pitiful. I guess it will be even harder to ask her out in the future."
Xu Shaojun gazed at the two people who had already walked to the car, his eyes deep and unfathomable, and murmured, "No."
"What? Shaojun, what did you say?" Jiang Mengru didn't hear what he said.
Xu Shaojun withdrew his gaze and smiled at her: "It's nothing, Mengru, you're so cute and loyal."
Jiang Mengru smiled shyly and said, "You're very good too."
"Ye, has Lu Tingyun already returned to the country? You already knew, didn't you?" After getting into the car, Yue Yirou hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help but ask.
"Hmm." Yan Ye nodded. Although he really didn't want her to know the news, he couldn't hide it anymore, could he?
It turns out that Lu Tingyun had indeed already returned to China.
No wonder Yan Ye refused to give her her freedom.
"Yi Rou, I won't allow you to waste any effort on him." Yan Ye commanded domineeringly, his tone carrying a warning and a hint of jealousy.
Without putting in any effort?
This is a bit difficult to do.
After all, she was someone I once loved.
"Night, I..."
Knowing she couldn't do it, and not wanting to hear it, he simply shut her up.
When they returned to Starry Night Pavilion, the baby was already asleep, and Aunt Wu and Xue Tao were taking care of him.
Yue Yirou carefully picked up the baby from the stroller, kissed his little face, and then carried him to the elevator with Yan Ye.
Yan Ye put his arm around her waist and held the mother and son in his arms.
Xue Tao and Aunt Wu watched from behind, their faces filled with gratified smiles. They found the scene particularly heartwarming and loving. Xue Tao couldn't help but take out his phone, open the camera, and capture the moment forever.
Xue Tao and Aunt Wu have already saved many such heartwarming and loving photos on their phones. They plan to make these photos into an album as a gift for Yan Ye and Yue Yirou when they hold their wedding.
After returning, Yan Ye didn't mention Lu Tingyun again. After taking a shower, he went to bed after kissing her. She didn't know if he was asleep, but since he was already asleep with his eyes closed, she wouldn't cause trouble.
She shifted gently in his arms, finding a more comfortable position, then closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
That night, she had a dream. In the dream, Yan Ye and Lu Tingyun were pointing guns at each other. She was tied up to the side, crying and begging them to put down their guns, but they insisted on a gunfight and wouldn't listen to her pleas. Tears blurred her vision, and she was so scared and desperate...
"No, don't shoot... Waaah..." she cried out in her dream.
"Yi Rou, Yi Rou, what's wrong? Wake up..." Yan Ye called out while gently patting her face, trying to wake her from her nightmare.
At his call, Yue Yirou woke up from her nightmare. The moment she opened her eyes and saw Yan Ye, she choked back tears, turned around, and hugged him tightly.
"Alright, stop crying, it was just a nightmare." Yan Ye pulled the blanket over her, patted her back gently, and coaxed her tenderly.
He didn't know what she dreamed about, but seeing her wake up crying so sadly, he could imagine it must have been something painful and unbearable for her.
Yue Yirou hugged him tightly, sobbing softly, and it took her a while to gradually calm down.
She raised her head and gazed at Yan Ye: "Ye, I dreamt of you, I dreamt of you..." Recalling the scene in her dream, she couldn't help but shed tears again.
Yan Ye gently wiped away her tears with his fingertips: "Did you dream that I was shot by Lu Tingyun? Or did I shoot Lu Tingyun?"
He remembered her saying just now, "Don't shoot."
"Waaah... I dreamt that you tied me up and then fought me with guns..." Yue Yirou buried her face in Yan Ye's arms, hugged him, and sobbed sadly.
Yan Ye paused for a moment, then smiled and comforted her, "Silly girl, how could I bear to tie you up? This dream won't come true, don't worry, stop crying. If you cry again, the baby will be woken up."
"Really, it won't come true? You really won't take a gun and fight Lu Tingyun?"
"No, I wouldn't do something so foolish for you and the baby. Don't worry, don't overthink it. Go to sleep, sweetie."
After receiving his assurance, Yue Yirou felt much relieved and gradually fell asleep again, though she didn't sleep very soundly.
Yan Ye did not sleep a wink that night.
Early in the morning, Acheng was summoned to Yan Ye's study.
"Acheng, a person who looks like Lu Tingyun was seen at the entrance of the Xinghui Hotel last night. Go and check if it's him."
"Yes, young master." Acheng nodded respectfully.
When Yue Yirou saw that Acheng and Zhang Qier were about to go out again, she guessed what they were going to do without asking.
As Acheng and Zhang Qier reached the door and were about to leave, she called out, "Acheng, Qier, come back."
Upon hearing this, Acheng and Zhang Qier stopped in their tracks and turned back to look at Yue Yirou with puzzled expressions.
"Young Madam, what's wrong...?"
“I know what you’re going out to do this time. Wait here for a moment, I’ll go upstairs to find Ye.”
After Yue Yirou finished speaking, she turned and ran towards the elevator.
A minute later, Yue Yirou stood in front of Yan Ye, looking at him with teary eyes: "Ye, I will not go out anymore. Can you please stop investigating Lu Tingjun's affairs and stop caring about him?"
She could only feel at ease if he ignored Lu Tingyun.
“Yi Rou…” Yan Ye said helplessly, “Don’t you understand? It’s not that I’m unwilling to let Lu Tingyun go, it’s that Lu Tingyun is unwilling to let us go and insists on ruining our happy life. If he doesn’t succeed this time, there will be a next time.”
“As long as I don’t leave Xingye Pavilion, he won’t have a chance. Besides, he’s a wanted criminal now and doesn’t dare to act openly. Ye, please promise me, okay? I really don’t want to see you all…” Yue Yirou’s tears welled up in her eyes again.
Yan Ye couldn't bear it after all and sighed, "Alright, I agree. But you must remember what you said, keep your word, don't leave Xingye Pavilion, and don't beg me to set you free again."
"Yes, I will definitely do it."
For the next month, Yue Yirou really didn't leave Xingye Pavilion. Jiang Mengru called her several times to ask her out, but she refused each time.
As for her uncle Yue Quan, she had considered visiting him, but ultimately refrained from doing so and only watched the videos secretly filmed by her bodyguard.
