Chapter 620: Chapter 619: Ulterior Motives_1

This tense scene was something Yan Ling hadn’t anticipated. However, if someone intended to harm her and she didn’t fight back, she’d be a fool.

Even if the Dark Empire was supposed to be cruel, there should still be some sense of human rights.

As the two men rushed in to grab her, Yan Ling had already discreetly picked up a syringe from the porcelain plate, ready to take King hostage at any moment to ensure her safety.

"Are you looking for death?"

King’s voice was gentle and light, as if he wasn’t angry at all.

Yet, the two who had burst in were so frightened that they immediately knelt on one knee, daring not to make any more actions.

In the Dark Empire, King was like a god. One could offend anyone but him; otherwise, hell would be their final destination.

Linxi saw all this, a hint of anger in her eyes. She was about to say something when King warned her.

"Linxi, let your men get out!"

Linxi was defiant, questioning King, "I am your fiancée. Don’t I even have the right to deal with those who harbor ill intentions toward you?"

Yan Ling muttered to herself.

Harboring ill intentions?

Was she that obvious?

Regardless of it, the issue was whether this man was her beloved or not.

If he was, why didn’t he remember her, and why was there a mysterious fiancée?

While the tension rose between the two higher-ups, Yan Ling was surreptitiously sizing up Linxi.

Her chest seemed a bit larger, her hips curvier, her waist quite slim, their heights comparable, but her legs were not as slender and symmetrical.

Her face looked young, but unfortunately, Western women’s faces tend to age prematurely due to large pores. In contrast, she was full of collagen, looking like she was still eighteen.

While Yan Ling was inwardly commenting and comparing their features, she was simultaneously pondering over how to confirm King’s identity once again.

"His name is Wesley, the captain of the Hidden Guards I selected myself. He isn’t harboring any ill intentions." Knowing he shouldn’t be so hard on his fiancée, King softened his tone and explained.

Linxi didn’t believe him. They almost kissed just now, was this how a boss should behave with a subordinate?

King turned around, showing his wounded back to Linxi.

"Didn’t Luo Qi tell you? We were attacked on the way here, and I got hurt. I just asked him to apply medicine. If you think everyone close to me is suspicious, should I also send Luo Qi away?"

"No!" King’s words made Linxi instinctively refuse.

Her reaction was a bit too much, as if she was deeply afraid King would really send Luo Qi away.

Yan Ling’s gaze moved between the two of them, feeling puzzled.

These two definitely did not resemble an engaged couple. If two people were in love, one could see the relationship between them from the pink bubbles around them.

But these two...

Linxi had feelings for him, but King’s reaction...

"King, I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have suspected you of having any relationship with a man." Linxi lost this game, so she had no choice but to please him and move closer.

Just as Linxi’s hand was about to touch King’s arm, Yan Ling felt her breath hitch for no apparent reason, a stifled feeling in her heart making her extremely uncomfortable.

She even wanted to reach out and push away the woman who was approaching King.

This strong possessive desire was only supposed to happen when dealing with Qi Yunjue, so why was she reacting this way towards a stranger?

They say the heart feels more truth than the brain.

Had her heart really changed, or had she identified the right person all along?

Yan Ling instinctively stretched out her hand, but someone reacted faster.
