The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife
Chapter 71 - 71 71 The Farewell Kiss

71: Chapter 71 The Farewell Kiss 71: Chapter 71 The Farewell Kiss The two people silently ate their breakfast, no one initiated a conversation, and the atmosphere felt very cold; they clearly looked like a couple, but each ate their own food, more like a pair of strangers.

“You’re in such a hurry to return to Europe, did something happen at the Moon God Temple?” Ye Shikai was the first to break the silent atmosphere, Ji Qian had just arrived in Huaxia and was going back today, presumably something had happened in the Moon God Temple.

“Yes, there’s a bit of trouble, but it’s nothing serious.” Ji Qian said, “Why don’t you also come to Europe sometime?

I feel that the origin of your Demon Addiction is over there.”

“What, the origin?” Ye Shikai exclaimed, having tried many methods before without being able to eradicate his Demon Addiction, so he could only try to control his emotions and prevent it from flaring up.

“Yes, do you remember the stone from the auction yesterday?”

“Yes, it’s said to be a strange stone from the West,” Ye Shikai added, remembering the host mentioning that the stone was from the West, but at the time, he thought it was just a made-up story.

“Correct, the stone indeed comes from the West, and might even be from the Holy Mountain,” Ji Qian took a sip of the coffee in front of her and said faintly.

“What, the Holy Mountain!” Ye Shikai almost stood up, the Holy Mountain being the origin place of the Western Main Gods.

Legends say it contains Divine Power of the Main God, but no one has been able to discover it conclusively, not for a lack of trying as the allure of Divine Power is tempting, especially for ordinary people wishing to rise to fame, but those who went there, none have returned alive.

“Yes, you felt it too, the energy from that stone and the energy inside you are very similar, even identical, so I suspect, the energy inside you is from the Holy Mountain,” Ji Qian astonishingly revealed, but indeed it made sense; she herself had roamed around Europe for many years and though she hadn’t fully explored the Holy Mountain, she had some contacts, especially after becoming the Netherworld King, her connections with the Holy Mountain increased, obviously since she is a Main God.

“Yes, I understand what you’re saying.

I’ll find some time to visit Europe, check up on my old buddies, it’s been a while since I’ve seen them,” Ye Shikai smiled, thinking of the people from Netherworld Palace and the days they fought side by side.

Without them, he wouldn’t have become the Netherworld King so quickly.

The two chatted sporadically, and before they realized, it was almost 10 o’clock.

They left the restaurant and went to the gate.

“Passengers flying from Yanjing to Europe please proceed to the gate.” The announcement from the airport broadcast spoke of imminent boarding, Ye Shikai could clearly feel Ji Qian grasping his hand, unwilling to let go.

“After you arrive in Europe, take good care of yourself, if you encounter danger, notify me immediately,” Ye Shikai instructed, sounding like a parent sending a child on a journey, but given Ji Qian’s strength and status, there are few who could pose her a threat.

“Yes, I understand,” Ji Qian said with some reluctance, her eyes already reddening, suddenly she blurted out, “Wait.”

“What’s wrong?”

“Could you…

kiss me?” Ji Qian asked “difficultly,” Ye Shikai after hearing this, froze, his expression hesitant, scenes of his past experiences with Ji Qian replaying in his mind like a movie projector…

“Sigh, sorry, if it’s not okay, forget it, after all, we have already…

broken up.” Ji Qian sighed lightly, turned her back to Ye Shikai, tears already swirling in her eyes, her voice trembling slightly, but she didn’t want Ye Shikai to see this scene.

Suddenly, Ji Qian felt a large hand grabbing hers, pulling her back, her tempting red lips tightly covered…

“This is what I owe you,” Ye Shikai slowly released after a few seconds, softly speaking.

“Yes, thank you, I’ll go first,” Ji Qian said, looking at Ye Shikai reluctantly, slowly turned and walked into the boarding tunnel, as Ji Qian moved out of Ye Shikai’s line of sight, tears fell like broken pearls…

Ye Shikai felt heavy-hearted, watching the distant airplane slowly ascend into the clouds, tears streaming down his cheeks.

…

“Hey, Shikai, why didn’t you come to work today?” An Lan, somewhat annoyed, asked Ye Shikai in the office of the public relations department manager at Tianya Group.

“I am…

here now,” Ye Shikai replied with a chuckling demeanor, which was both amusing and frustrating for An Lan.

“Humph, the company rules say start at eight, and what time is it now?” An Lan pointed at the wall clock, which was nearing twelve noon.

“Lan, I had something to do, otherwise why would a model young man like me skip work without reason.”

“You’re always full of excuses, a mere employee, what so many problems can you have, no more lateness allowed, or I won’t help you anymore,” An Lan coldly huffed, lowering her head to correct some documents.

“Hehe, got it, I’m off to work then.”

“Wait, take this document to New City Group,” An Lan handed a document from the desk to Ye Shikai.

“Eh, isn’t that the company I went to collect money from last time?” Ye Shikai recalled the company name immediately, he had previously fought his way into this company which is under Luo Shiqi’s banner.

Since Luo Shiqi invested in Tianya Group, there have been some connections between the two groups.

“Yes, it’s a proposal plan, deliver it to their company immediately,” An Lan added, “You have two hours.”

“Lan, you’re giving me a time limit,” Ye Shikai rolled his eyes.

“Who told you to always slack off, set a time to keep you busy, now go, you have one hour and fifty-nine minutes left, be late and your salary gets docked…” An Lan smiled.

Ye Shikai sighed inwardly, An Lan, you’re harsh.

Leaving the office, Ye Shikai went out to the street, attempting to hail a taxi, but it being rush hour, he waited over ten minutes without success, getting anxious.

Just then, a Bentley slowly pulled up in front of him, looking up, it was none other than Han Ruoyao.

“Uncle, where are you headed?

Let me give you a ride.”
