Chapter 469: Chapter 469: The Wolf Sees the Rabbit

The man’s voice was clear and sultry, with an inexplicable hoarseness that intoxicated listeners.

Leng Yu Yan’s heart skipped a beat. The words he spoke did not seem casual, as if following her lead.

Seeing her stunned, Ye Yiheng smiled, curling his lips.

Usually, he was not one to smile or talk lightly, and he mostly wore a cold and expressionless face. That indifferent and dismissive attitude seemed as if everything in his eyes was trivial.

But now, on his exceedingly handsome face, his lips slightly curled in an unexpectedly soul-stirring manner.

Leng Yu Yan secretly criticized, this man was so bewitchingly beautiful, no wonder Yu Yinglei from Beiliang had been obsessed with him for so many years.

Seeing her still in a daze, Ye Yiheng pinched her cheek, "What are you thinking about, hmm?"

His tone was slow and deliberate, inexplicably tender and intoxicating.

"You pinched me, and it hurt," Leng Yu Yan lightly touched her cheek with her fingers.

Ye Yiheng caressed his fingers, the silky sensation lingered, and impelled by some force, he reached out again, rubbing her cheek with some force.

Her silky, soft cheek under his fingers, her small, red lips puckered up from his pinch, improved his mood considerably, "Yanyan..."

He really wanted to ball her up and knead her again; just pinching her face was not satisfying at all!

"What are you doing, don’t pinch my face!"

Leng Yu Yan frowned. Was she just a doll to him that could be kneaded at will?

"My teeth are itchy."

His gaze, beneath his eye veil, darkened.

"What do my itchy teeth have to do with you?" No sooner had she spoken than the next moment, her eyes widened, and a cool sensation struck her neck, panicking, she quickly exclaimed, "Don’t nibble on my neck!"

Ye Yiheng slightly raised his head, "Right, your older brother must not see the condition of your neck."

As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled open her neckline to reveal her collarbone, then his sharp teeth grazed her beautiful collarbone.

Leng Yu Yan was so angry her chest heaved violently. If this rascal dared to bite her collarbone, she would definitely bite back.

Ye Yiheng did not know how he had persuaded himself not to bite straight in, only that restraining himself became increasingly difficult.

Especially facing such a tempting her, like a wolf spotting a rabbit, he truly wanted to devour her completely.

The tingling sensation on her collarbone made Leng Yu Yan’s breathing become ragged.

It would be a lie to say she wasn’t afraid; she genuinely feared that his wolfish instinct would suddenly surface, fiercely leaving deep teeth marks on her collarbone.

Fortunately, after he kissed her, he let her go.

With shaky steps, Leng Yu Yan ran to the vanity mirror: fortunately, he had only left a red mark on her collarbone, nothing else was amiss.

Ye Yiheng watched her with a half-smile, "I ended up not daring to bite."

Afraid a certain young lady might burst into tears.

Leng Yu Yan glared at him and straightened her neckline, "Playboy!"

He wasn’t annoyed in the least, his long, jade-like fingers personally straightened her collar for her, "It’s time for dinner."

Leng Yu Yan grasped his fingers, "Your Highness, I have something to say."

Ye Yiheng, "Hmm?"

She cast down her eyes, pacing her mind a few times, not knowing how to begin.

He seemed extremely patient, "Go ahead."

Leng Yu Yan took a deep breath, "This habit of yours, biting people casually, I know it’s hard to change, seeing as it’s related to your physical condition. But if you really want to, it’s definitely possible!"

Men who couldn’t help themselves always had their quirks.

He was no exception.

If he wished to seek treatment for his condition, all he had to do was mention it, and she could try to help him treat it.

Although she was not a professional doctor in this field, she could still try.

But these words, she really felt embarrassed to say aloud.

Leng Yu Yan’s heart had already wandered to thoughts that Ye Yiheng could not guess, but he caught the implied meaning in her words.

Just now, he was thinking that this girl was overly naive, but now, he wondered whether she was too naive or if she had misunderstood him.

Nevertheless, let her misunderstand.

There would come a day when the misunderstanding would be cleared.

Ye Yiheng stretched out his hand and scraped her nose tip, "Silly girl, when a wolf bites a rabbit, do you know why?"

"The wolf is hungry," Leng Yu Yan responded naively.

Although that could be said, Ye Yiheng pressed his forehead and explained, "The wolf sees a rabbit it likes."

She tilted her head, looking at him, "Can I take it as a dog seeing a bone?"

"That works too," he nodded somewhat helplessly.

Leng Yu Yan laughed out loud, pulling his hand, "Let’s go, it’s time to eat."

At that moment, Yinhui happily ran over, circling around their legs affectionately.

"Yinhui is coming along to eat," Leng Yu Yan petted Yinhui’s head and said to the person beside her, "This little fellow grows so fast, faster than dogs, after all, it’s a little wolf cub, not only pretty but also growing nicely."

Ye Yiheng shook his head, feeling as if her words carried another meaning?

Leaning down slightly, he also patted Yinhui’s head, and then the two, along with the wolf, headed towards the front yard.

In the front yard dining room, Li Yuyue had personally arranged several pots of wine, and Ye Jiu instructed the maid to set up the dishes.

By the time Ye Yiheng and Leng Yu Yan arrived, Li Yuyue called out loudly, "Your Highness, Yan’er, please take your seats quickly."

Ye Jiu voluntarily sat next to Li Yuyue, smiling, "Don’t we look like a family of four?"

Yinhui, crouching beside the table, let out a whine, and all four of them laughed.

Leng Yu Yan explained, "Ah Ju said we look like a family of five, then Yinhui will be happy."

Ye Jiu placed a meat bone on Yinhui’s plate, "Right, we are a family of five."

Yinhui lazily wagged its tail, seemingly accepting her revision.

Seeing this, Ye Jiu laughed, "This guy is just like the Sixth Brother."

Leng Yu Yan covered her lips and laughed, "Exactly, the temper is the same."

Just when the wine was halfway drunk, and the meal was halfway eaten, Gao Yuan and Xiaoshan came back.

Both bowed simultaneously, "Commandery Princess, Ms. Wu and her son have been captured."

Leng Yu Yan asked, "Where are they?"

Gao Yuan responded, "They are just outside, bound by the guards."

Leng Yu Yan said indifferently, "Separate and imprison the father and son, let them dangle for a couple of days without interrogation or any further notice. As for food, keep them six parts full."

Xiaoshan, puzzled, asked quietly, "Commandery Princess, why such measures?"

"Separating them prevents them from colluding and ignoring them causes them to crumble on their own. If they aren’t fully fed, they will overthink, and the more they think, the deeper the memory of their transgressions."

Xiaoshan nodded, "Thank you for your instructive words, Commandery Princess!"

Leng Yu Yan waved her hand, "Secure them well, and you go eat and rest."

The two complied and promptly left the dining room.

--

Yu Yinglei returned to the hostel and threw a huge fit.

Just after her outburst, a maid reported, "Princess, Prince Tiancheng and His Highness Prince Xian have come."

Hearing that Ye Zhenxian had arrived, Yu Yinglei instantly regained a dignified and polite demeanor.

She straightened her clothes and gracefully exited the room to personally greet Ye Zhenxian.

Ye Zhenxian watched Yu Yinglei approach him with slow steps, smiling neutrally. In all fairness, while her beauty might not match Leng Yu Yan and Ye Jiu, she was still a rare beauty.

More crucially, she and Haoyuan were siblings from the same mother, with Haoyuan likely to inherit the throne of Beiliang.

Securing the support of these siblings would mean he was not entirely isolated in Tiancheng.
