"What's wrong?" The Crown Prince turned around and asked as he looked at the water.
Shui Long listened and shook his head. "It's nothing."
Following the crown prince, Shui Ruo arrived at a shop in the capital called the Phoenix Butterfly.
"This place is?" Shui Yuehan gazed at the endless stream of people, somewhat curious.
"A shop in the Shui Family." With that, the Crown Prince dragged the water and walked towards the house. It was as if no one was in the room. Empty. When he saw the man walking over with Shui Ruo, he was first stunned, as if he did not expect anyone to come over. But then, he noticed who Shui Ruo was, and quickly stood up and kneeled on the ground, "Eldest Young Master, Eldest Miss?"
"Get up." When the man heard this, he hurriedly nodded his head and bowed. Then, he carefully stood up and looked at Shui Ruo with a strange expression in his heart. Why is this young lady here? Wasn't she supposed to be on the run? Also, the people from the Shui family … He should have just returned. How could he come to check his accounts?
"Is this what you brought me here to see?" Shui Sheng gazed at Night Emperor Yan beside him and asked indifferently. Hearing this, Night Emperor Yan shook his head. "No."
"No?" What is that? "
"Who else is upstairs?" Night Emperor Yan looked at the boss and asked. Hearing that, the boss' expression froze, he hurriedly shook his head and said: "No, there's nothing, I'm the only one here. Young Miss, you must trust me. "
"I actually want to believe you, but seeing how guilty you are makes it hard for me to believe you." Shui Long looked at the boss and said coldly. However, the reason why she didn't trust her boss wasn't because she felt guilty, but because she believed in the Night Emperor's flames. This man was too busy to come here to swindle her. To him, the Shui Family might just be an insignificant existence.
Shui Ruo thought to herself as she circled around the boss and prepared to head upstairs.
Seeing Shui Long refuse to listen, the boss made up his mind and said to the people below, "Someone, come! Catch him! "
Having said that, the waiter here actually prepared to grab hold of Shui Ruo. However, Night Emperor Yan did not give these people a chance. He alone stopped them. He looked at Shui Ruo and said, "Quickly go up. You will see what you want to know, and you will know … "What's the situation with your Shui Family now?"
The man's words were extremely sincere, to the point that Shui Ruo couldn't reject them even if he wanted to. Moreover, looking at how these people were fighting against Night Emperor Yan, it was obvious that he held the upper hand. Thus, Shui Ruo went up in peace.
After Shui Ruo slowly ascended the stairs, these people stopped fighting. The boss respectfully looked at Night Emperor and said, "Your Highness, our show is over. Can we leave now?"
"You're the boss here, where are you going?" Night Emperor's smile was enchanting.
"But, but didn't you say that you only needed me to help you and we could leave?" The butler looked at him in confusion. The Night Emperor coldly snorted, "I am indeed saying that you can leave now. But I'm not talking about getting you out of here. "
"What, what is that?" The boss still had some lingering fear.
"I said you could die." With that said, the sword at Ye Huang Yan's waist had already been pulled out, and he ruthlessly slashed towards the boss's neck. The boss stared at Night Emperor Yan with regret in his eyes. However, in the eyes of Night Emperor Yan, it was as though he was looking at an ant. To him, death was of no use. As for living people, sooner or later, they would all be used for death.
He was the crown prince, and he only needed to obtain what he wanted. It had nothing to do with him. Everyone in this world was born for him. And he was here to live, to be happy for the woman upstairs.
On the second floor, in a private room, a few people were seated.
These people were none other than the members of the Shui Family's branch family. They did not shut the door properly when they were upstairs. Water carefully squatted to the side. He listened to the sounds coming from inside.
"Young Master Yun, how do you think we should settle this?" Someone in the room asked.
"That, everything is up to everyone."
"We have the final say?" Everyone seemed to disagree with Suiyun's words.
"The people from the western courtyard said that the people from the Shui family won't come back, that's why we decided to sell them. Now that the people from the Shui family are back, I'm afraid we can't sell them. What about the money we spent earlier?"
The girl from the Hong family was extremely discontented.
When Suiyun heard this, he said faintly, "What are you afraid of? The Shui family had so many properties, even if they wanted to find them, it would take time. Moreover, no matter what, the Shui Family won't kick us out for this. For the current Shui Family, he needs us. "
Suiyun's words were true, and only after everyone listened did they feel a little more at ease.
Outside the door, Shui Ruo heard all this and felt only anger. These people dared to do such a thing behind his back? However, what they said was true. The current Shui family needed them, they could not do anything to them for the time being. Just wait a little while and give them a little more color. As he thought about it, a smile appeared on Shui Yuehan's face.
He turned around and prepared to leave. At this moment, he heard another voice coming from inside.
"Oh, you guys are so noisy. I'm tired. Don't call me a member of the Bai Clan next time. The Bai Clan doesn't want to be part of you. " A sleepy man was in a daze. Then he said lightly. He seemed dissatisfied, but Shui Ruo felt that he was not sleepy, but was truly awake.
"Yo, what is it? The young master of the Bai Clan was thinking that the Bai Clan had already gotten some benefits? We've already shared the spoils, and you want to quit now? It's too late. " The one who spoke was the young lady from the Hong family.
"The Lan family doesn't want to participate either." Behind Master Bai, the young man's voice sounded. It sounded like he had already made up his mind. He was just waiting for the right moment. Listening to the words in the room, Shui Yuehan felt a bit more at ease. After all, there were at least two people who understood what was going on in this courtyard.
Although they might not necessarily be loyal to the Shui family, at least they knew how to respect them. It's not like those guys.
When those fellows were mentioned, Shui Long let out a sigh. He shook his head helplessly. He felt rather helpless towards this matter.
"Since the two of you do not wish to participate, you can leave. However, if you leave, the things you did to the young miss of the Shui clan will be discovered, right?" This matter will be left to you guys to handle. As for what Master Shui will think at that time, I am not too sure. " Suiyun's voice came out of the room.
With a single sentence, it made the two people who hadn't wanted to participate fall into silence.
The water was long, and he was able to pick up some clues from it. As expected, they were the ones who did it all those years ago. The reason why Shui Ruo couldn't get married for so many years was because they were up to no good. These people did not hesitate to harm innocent people in order to obtain the inheritance of the Shui Family. They only wanted to disgrace her, to never marry them!
When he thought about this, Shui Yuehan felt a tinge of anger. It wasn't just Shui Yuehan's own anger, but also the remaining anger in his body. All these years, this innocent girl had suffered a lot of infamy and even died for the sake of the ambitions of this group of people. It was easy to imagine the despair and pain in her heart.
She was only staying in this body now, but she could feel its own sorrow and pain.
Definitely, absolutely must let this group of fellows get their retribution. Water turned around and left as he was thinking. And in his heart, he had already made up his mind. Perhaps, the reason why Night Emperor sent her here today was to let her know all of this, to confirm all of this, and to look for him afterwards?
At this moment, she was completely certain that Nightmare had liked her. There were some things that could be deceived, but there were some things that absolutely could not be deceived. If she didn't love him, how could she save the Shui Family for him? If she didn't love him, why would she ask to stay in the Crown Prince's Palace?
Other than liking him, there was no other way for him to compromise under him and above everyone else. To be able to make him treat her in such a manner.
However, this feeling could be used, but not taken seriously. Sooner or later, the crown prince would become the emperor. How could he believe the feelings of an emperor? Even if she could be trusted, she would still be treated as a calamitous Demon Consort like Su Daji. Not only that, she had an agreement with the Night Emperor. When he thought of the Night Emperor's cultivation, Shui Yuehan closed his eyes. Thinking of that tender and cherishing kiss of the other day, as well as that somewhat clumsy kiss, Shui Yuehan made up his mind.
When the water slowly flowed downstairs, it had already turned into a sea of blood. None of them were alive. Not even their corpses were intact. And the culprit who did this, Night Emperor Yan? He was sitting on a chair, leisurely drinking his wine. Shui Ruo didn't know how he drank it, but just looking at the scene downstairs made her feel a wave of disgust.
She had seen many bloody scenes, but it was the first time she saw one like this. This man … He was simply a devil.
"You're down?" Ye Huangyan looked at her with a gentle face as if he couldn't see the disgust in Shui Long's eyes.
Shui Ruo didn't know how he showed such a gentle expression, but she could clearly feel that if she didn't hand over her hand to him, perhaps she would be the next one to become a bloodthirsty person.
In fact, that was indeed the case. At this moment, as Night Emperor looked at Shui Long, he suddenly felt that she was very similar to the color of the blood.
Of course, this thought only lasted for a moment. Then, Shui Ruo quickly gave him her hand. The warmth of the touch caused him to loosen up. This was because the dead would never have any temperature. He won't laugh, he won't cry, he won't depend on him. As he thought about it, the man suppressed the bloodlust in his heart. Then, he pulled Shui Ruo along as he gently said: "Alright, let's go."
"Thank you." Shui You looked at the man and said indifferently.
"Eh?" The Crown Prince blinked, as though he didn't know.
