Ye Sijue had already recovered from his shock, and the moment he was stunned, he seemed to realize that other than him, his gaze was fixated on the woman in front of him. Once again, he felt an unusual heartbeat coming from his lips. It was as if he was suppressing a strong desire to live.

No, that's not right. He had always been a person with few desires, so why would he suddenly have the desire for a woman? Look, something must be wrong.

With that in mind, Ye Sijue suddenly let go of her. He hurriedly took a step back, and as if he was avoiding a plague, he pulled away from her.

However, his heart was still beating fiercely. He immediately covered it with his hands, and his eyes returned to their usual indifference. "Get out!"

He growled coldly.

Su Jianjian was stunned by his roar, but she quickly left the room as if she was escaping. She was just about to quickly head downstairs when she saw a ray of light shining towards her from a certain corner of the room, causing her to be unable to open her eyes.

However, when she looked over, there was nothing.

Strange, could it be her hallucination?

With Ye Sijue here, Su Jianjian didn't have time to think further before heading downstairs.

On the other side, Gong Yucang suddenly felt a powerful halo of light flashing before his eyes, he suddenly opened his eyes, and discovered that right at the direction of Ye Sijue's villa, a powerful light suddenly flashed, but this time it flashed for a very short time, if not for the fact that he had a strong reaction towards the light, he would not have realised it.

He couldn't help but get up from the bed and walk towards the window with his feet on the ground.

A pair of blue eyes stared fixedly in that direction.

It seemed like his prediction was right. The light of zhenqi was indeed showing signs of reunion.

This was not good news for him.

However, he was worried about something else at the moment.

Thinking of this, his blue eyes slightly narrowed. He clasped his hands together and shot out a blue ray of light towards the window as a form of communication.

Then, a shadow appeared on the glass.

"Milord."

Silver Fox said respectfully.

Gong Yucang's eyes slightly rose as he said, "How is it, are there any progress in the matter that I asked you to investigate?"

"Milord, I've already found some clues, but they are still at the verification stage. It's not easy to come to a conclusion."

Gong Yucang nodded, and said, "Since we have already found some clues, we must continue to investigate, and must not hurt a mortal's name, or else we must arouse the Heavenly Palace's suspicions."

"Yes."

Silver Fox said respectfully.

Only then did Gong Yucang retract his illusion, his blue eyes narrowing slightly. It seemed that it was time for him to make his move.

On this night, both Ye Sijue and Su Jianjian did not sleep well.

Early the next morning, Su Jianjian woke up to find a small note from Ye Sijue on the dining table. "No need to prepare my breakfast."

She stared at the words on it and was slightly startled. I left so early in the morning. Isn't today the weekend?

Su Jianjian did not think too much into it. He could never figure out what Ye Sijue was thinking.

However, not having to prepare breakfast was something to be happy about.

After that, Su Jianjian sat in her room and fought for a while by herself. Although deities did not need to eat, they still needed to cultivate normally, especially when she only had half a bucket of water, she could not slack off even more.

Just as Su Jianjian stood up, the phone suddenly rang. She picked it up, it was Qiu Qi.

"Su Jianjian, come out and meet us."

Before she could ask him what he was going to do, he hung up.

Su Jianjian was a little speechless, but thinking that there might be something wrong with Qiu Qi, he did not give it much thought and immediately changed his clothes and left the villa.

Only, she didn't know that when her front foot left, Ye Sijue's rear foot returned back to her., who had just finished exercising, had sweat all over his forehead, he had used a towel to wipe it clean.

He then walked to the kitchen and poured himself a glass of water to drink. Only then did he turn around and take a look inside the house.

Since he did not see Su Jianjian's figure, Ye Sijue frowned as he walked to the door of her room and knocked.

However, no one responded.

Did he go out?

Ye Sijue frowned as he opened the door. Sure enough, the room was empty, Su Jianjian was not there.

Ye Sijue felt an inexplicable sense of loss, even he himself didn't know where that sense of loss came from.

He stayed in Su Jianjian's room for a moment, then turned around and returned to the living room, he sat on the sofa, but his heart was unable to calm down for a long time.

As if he was already used to Su Jianjian's noise, suddenly being so quiet was not appropriate.

He pondered for a moment, and almost subconsciously took out his phone to call Su Jianjian, wanting to ask where she was. However, when he flipped to that number, he stopped.

He did not know if it was out of habit or not, but he suddenly realised a problem. Unknowingly, he had gotten used to having Su Jianjian by his side.

It was as if she were everywhere in his life, whether he was at work or off duty.

He admitted that he only wanted to use this woman as a shield in the beginning. After all, his mother could force a woman over at any time, and her existence helped him avoid a lot of unnecessary troubles.

But he didn't expect that at such a time, he would gradually lose control of himself.

Just like last night, she was no longer a woman without any feelings of existence in front of him. She was a woman who could make his heart beat faster, even giving him hope.

The discovery shocked him.

He, who had always been a person of little desire and who treated women as if they were nothing, had actually thought of something in this strange manner. This was not a good omen.

Ye Sijue felt repulsed from the bottom of his heart. He thought that perhaps it was because he had gotten used to staying with her for a long time, and it was not because he was moved by her words, it must be like this.

He tried to convince himself in his heart before he got up and walked upstairs.

At a quiet, dark blue lake.

Qiu Qi was dressed in casual clothes as he sat on a small stool by the lake. In front of him was a good fishing rod.

When Su Jianjian walked over, he silenced her with a gesture.

It was as if he was afraid of scaring away the fish he was about to bite.

Su Jianjian's mouth twitched, and lightly stepped to the side of him.

She stared at the nervous Qiu Qi speechlessly. This guy called her to this kind of place in the morning, could it be just to watch him fish?

He was truly free.

However, she was not as excited as he was. Not only did she need to complete the mission for the three month agreement, she also needed to take into account Eldest Brother Yue's orders from last night.

When he thought about these two things, Su Jianjian became extremely anxious.

Ignoring Yue Lao's orders, let's just take the mission of her three month agreement.

She had been chewing on it for more than two months, but she still had not managed to do so.

Therefore, Ye Sijue's reputation as a betrothed family was not just for show.
