Chapter 256 Bai Mengyan, I don't recognize her.
Chapter 256 Bai Mengyan, I don't recognize her.
But the figure showed no sign of stopping, walking further and further away until Yun Yao's vision became blurry and her body went limp in the mud.
She was so tired, so very tired...
Su Yuchen stayed by Yun Yao's bedside the whole time, his large hand tightly holding Yun Yao's small hand, his eyes never leaving her.
He checked her pulse and found that Yun Yao's pulse was very irregular, and the spiritual energy around her body was showing signs of becoming violent. If she didn't wake up soon, she might fall into that nightmare.
However... his magical power was far inferior to Yun Yao's, and he was simply unable to suppress her.
……
The safe was placed there, and even though it was so conspicuous, after the lesson learned last time, no one dared to be so foolish as to break in.
Wanwan, I've fainted countless times since you appeared in my world. If you were really as strong as you seem, I wouldn't be suffering like this.
How long will it take me to become capable enough to protect you?
Yun Yao slept for three days and three nights. If Lin Dai'er hadn't said that her vital signs were stable, Su Yuchen would probably have gone crazy.
In the dead of night, Yun Yao's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she suddenly opened her eyes, panting heavily as if she had just been pulled out of the sea.
Her eyes showed a hint of panic as she hurriedly glanced at Su Yuchen beside her.
In that dream, she saw Su Yuchen covered in blood, dying in her arms before he could even take a breath.
Yun Yao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the person was safe and sound.
My sleeping must have made him worry. That fool, who knows how many nights he hasn't slept.
Yun Yao gently raised her hand, and Su Yuchen's breathing became even longer...
She threw back the blanket, walked to the safe, and took out the dragon seal encased in amber.
In ancient times, emperors were believed to be the Son of Heaven, and thus used a golden dragon seal to symbolize their supreme status.
However, the dragon seal in her hand was not for the emperor.
The divine dragon is something that resides in the highest heavens. Even the God Emperor only treats it as a partner and an equal. But now, someone has the audacity to use a divine dragon of such status as a seal. How arrogant must he be?
"Tsk, that's interesting. Even I wasn't this arrogant back in the day," Yun Yao couldn't help but tease.
As soon as Yun Yao finished speaking, she realized that the amber encasing the dragon seal was no ordinary amber. Judging from its texture and feel, it was probably tens of thousands of years old.
"No wonder!" No wonder her divine sense couldn't penetrate it; with this thing here, who could penetrate it!
Yun Yao threw the dragon seal in her hand onto the carpet and sat on the bed in frustration.
To find out why the Dragon Seal affects him, he would have to peel away the outer layer of ten-thousand-year-old amber. However, if his guess was correct, the amber not only prevented outsiders from prying into his mind, but also played a crucial role in isolating the Dragon Seal from the world.
If I were to rashly open it, the immense energy released by the Dragon Seal would definitely shatter this world.
Oh well, I've already lost these memories for so many years, so what's a little more time?
Yun Yao raised her hand and picked up the things on the ground.
You can't look at the dragon seal, but you can look at everything else in the safe!
Yun Yao took out the yellowed books and documents from the safe, snapped her fingers, and the items flew into the air and opened themselves for Yun Yao to read.
Yun Yao became increasingly alarmed as she looked, and would occasionally glance back in Su Yuchen's direction.
……
The next day, Su Yuchen was awakened by Yun Yao's breathing. Yes, it was her breathing.
The moment he opened his eyes, he saw Yun Yao holding a megaphone and breathing heavily in his ear.
Su Yuchen: "..."
"Wanwan, when did you wake up?"
"last night."
Su Yuchen sat up and pushed the megaphone away from her hand.
Why didn't you wake me up?
"I couldn't bear to see you sleeping so soundly."
Su Yuchen looked at the extra-large megaphone in her hand.
"So you're going to be so heartless now?"
"Something's up, get up quickly!" Yun Yao said, placing a light kiss on Su Yuchen's forehead.
Seeing him in a daze, Yun Yao brought the megaphone to her mouth.
"Mr. Su, good morning kiss, don't be surprised."
Su Yuchen's ears were almost deafened by Yun Yao's voice. Looking at the person who jumped off the bed, his eyes were full of doting affection.
When he got out of bed, he took a special look at the place where he used to keep the safe, but the safe was gone.
It seems that Wanwan checked the contents after waking up.
When Su Yuchen and Yun Yao appeared at the restaurant, everyone was stunned for a moment, and Bu Lanying was the most resentful of them all.
She used to sit in the first seat, but now she's been moved to the first seat on the left.
Su Yuchen walked straight to the head seat, but instead of sitting down, he pulled out a chair for Yun Yao.
"Thank you... Patriarch!" Yun Yao paused deliberately, just to provoke Bu Lanying.
Sure enough, Bu Lanying's face was very ugly, and she was so angry that her hand holding the chopsticks was trembling.
She looked up and met Yun Yao's provocative gaze, then angrily slammed her chopsticks on the table.
"I'm full, you guys eat slowly!" These words were spoken through gritted teeth; Bu Lanying now wished she could tear Yun Yao's mouth apart!
Su Yuchen didn't look up, but picked up a shrimp and placed it on the plate in front of him.
Seeing Su Yuchen's actions, Su Weiwen was slightly taken aback. As far as he knew, Su Yuchen never touched seafood!
The next second, he saw the incomparably noble man slowly peeling shrimp and then putting them into Yun Yao's bowl.
The servants around them felt like they had been fed a dog food first thing in the morning. While they were secretly excited, they were also extremely envious of Yun Yao. Afraid that their covetous eyes would be too obvious, they all lowered their heads even further.
Yun Yao was thoroughly enjoying Su Yuchen's open and honest pampering, and was completely satisfied.
Although Su Weiwen had noticed Su Yuchen's unique affection for Yun Yao that night, he never expected that Su Yuchen would go to such lengths for this woman.
Even if he loved Xiao Yun dearly, he would never lower himself to such a degree.
"Yu Chen, I wonder if you still remember Bai Mengyan from the Su family?"
“That child called me yesterday. He’s still as sensible and well-behaved as ever, just like when he was a child.”
If Su Weiwen hadn't mentioned it, Yun Yao would probably have forgotten this name.
Bringing up a rumored ex in front of his current girlfriend—Su Weiwen's intentions are far too obvious.
Bai Mengyan wasn't even qualified to be Yun Yao's rival, so no matter how Su Weiwen brought it up, Yun Yao didn't care.
This is like telling a lion that an ant wants to be its rival—it's utterly presumptuous.
However, to Yun Yao's surprise, Su Yuchen reacted.
Seeing that Su Yuchen did not respond, Su Weiwen asked another question.
“Yu Chen, you and Meng Yan grew up together. Now that the Su family is in this state, we should help them out of both compassion and reason, shouldn’t we?”
Su Yuchen put down the cutlery in his hand, wiped his mouth with elegant manners, and only after completing this set of actions did he look up at Su Weiwen.
"From a business perspective, the Su family has brought this upon themselves. From my perspective, who is Bai Mengyan? I don't know her."
Yun Yao, who was drinking milk, almost choked and coughed repeatedly...
