The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife
Chapter 131 - 131 131 Husband and Wife Night Talk

131: Chapter 131 Husband and Wife Night Talk 131: Chapter 131 Husband and Wife Night Talk “Thud, thud, thud” As Ye Shikai was halfway through healing his wounds, a series of knocks on the door came through.

Who could it be this late?

Ye Shikai put on a coat and got up to open the door.

As the door swung open, a pretty face came into view.

“Qingyu, why are you here?” The visitor was none other than Su Qingyu, with a serious expression on her face and her eyes fixed intently on him.

“I want to talk to you about something,” Su Qingyu said indifferently, walking into his room.

She looked around; Su Qingyu usually didn’t come to his room.

Her coming over this late at night definitely meant something important was up.

The room’s decor was simple, with Su Qingyu sitting on a chair and himself on the bed.

“This afternoon, when you were fighting with that man…” Su Qingyu began, causing Ye Shikai’s heart to tighten.

Su Qingyu had been witness to his battle employing Inner Strength earlier today.

Seeing his silence, Su Qingyu’s face grew colder, “I saw everything today, how long were you planning to keep it from me?” Su Qingyu’s fingers lightly tapped on the table, producing a staccato rhythm.

Unable to deceive Su Qingyu any longer, Ye Shikai sighed softly, “Qingyu, you mean this, right?” As he spoke, Ye Shikai lifted his right hand towards the glass on the table, and, under Su Qingyu’s gaze, the glass floated up in the air.

Su Qingyu showed surprise, but this was nothing compared to the battle she witnessed today in the warehouse.

Ye Shikai painstakingly explained that he was a cultivator, starting from his discovery.

Su Qingyu’s face transitioned from initial shock to a serious contemplation.

These things that only existed in novels and TV shows were actually real.

Like Tang Yun, when the story finished, Su Qingyu found her worldview completely upended and was struggling to come to terms with it.

Having divulged his secret of being a cultivator, Ye Shikai felt a burden lift from his chest.

He never wanted Su Qingyu to know this, thus he had always concealed it, but now that she knew, he no longer had to hide.

“I don’t care whether you’re a cultivator or not, what I care about is why you weren’t telling me,” Su Qingyu cried out in a low growl.

“Qingyu, there are some things you wouldn’t understand, these matters are strictly confidential.

If the public found out, the consequences would be disastrous,” Ye Shikai explained.

Everyone has their reasons; cultivation has always been a closely guarded secret.

If it weren’t for going abroad, if he hadn’t encountered the Underworld, if he hadn’t eventually become the Main God, perhaps he would be just as oblivious.

If one day, ordinary citizens discovered the truth about cultivation, who knows what would happen.

“Am I an outsider, or do you just not trust me?” Su Qingyu glared at him, as if he didn’t trust her at all.

“How could that be?” Ye Shikai clarified; Su Qingyu had misunderstood him, “It’s just that this kind of thing is not something to be happy about, and it might… bring disaster.” Ye Shikai’s face showed helplessness; he was still shaken by today’s kidnapping, even injuring people from Netherworld Palace, proving their formidable strength.

“Like what happened today?

They weren’t here for the money?” Su Qingyu’s expression slightly changed.

“Of course not.

I had interfered with those people’s plans before, causing them to fail.

I think they came for revenge,” Ye Shikai recalled how he had dealt with Du Ya at the Dark Night Bar, saving Luo Shiqi from danger.

However, that female Assassin had threatened to kill him and Su Qingyu, and he wondered why they would want to kill Su Qingyu too.

“Qingyu, I truly feel guilty for your kidnapping today because of me,” Ye Shikai said with his head lowered, more firmly resolved to bring the power of Netherworld Palace into Huaxia, laying his roots in Yanjing.

“Now that we’re husband and wife, it’s no longer just your matter but ours.

Have you forgotten the promise you made me on Chinese Valentine’s Day?” Su Qingyu said excitedly, which also moved Ye Shikai.

With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?

Indeed, he had once promised never to conceal anything from Su Qingyu, but deep down, he truly did not wish to tell her about cultivation.

The two talked for a long time, until the early morning hours.

Having gone through today’s crisis, Su Qingyu’s dependence on him grew even stronger, not just because he came to her rescue immediately, but also because, when threatened by the female Assassin, he did not hesitate to stab his own arm.

Su Qingyu firmly believed that a man willing to risk his own life for her was worthy of her trust.

The next morning at the breakfast table.

“Brother-in-law, were you and my sister up all night making babies?

Why do you both have dark circles under your eyes?” Su Ziqing said with a laugh.

Indeed, they were up all night, but definitely not for that—how nice it would have been.

“Right, Uncle, I heard voices coming from your room last night,” Han Ruoyao said with a sly look.

Ye Shikai tensed up, hoping the little imp hadn’t been eavesdropping last night—or the secret about cultivation would be…

“Yaoyao, Qingqing, after you finish eating, hurry off to school and don’t fall behind on your studies.

Don’t you have a debate competition next week?” Su Qingyu, a bit red-faced, hurriedly changed the subject.

“Yeah, and Brother-in-law, you’re going to help me with my debate competition, right?” Su Ziqing suddenly remembered the incident with Li Mengmeng and her bet with Han Ruoyao.

Su Qingyu had wanted to change the subject, only to steer it towards something she didn’t want to discuss…

“I’m not of much use there.

Qingyu, why don’t you go instead?

You’re an alumnus of Yanjing University.” Ye Shikai shifted the responsibility to Su Qingyu.

Su Ziqing’s face immediately fell, and glancing at Su Qingyu, she didn’t expect her to nod like a demure bride-to-be.

“Stinky brother-in-law, don’t think I don’t know, you’re clearly trying to cheer for Li Mengmeng.

After what you did last time with your hugging and kissing, you definitely did something,” Su Ziqing blurted out angrily, accusing him without any reservation.
