Chapter 673: Chapter 672: Show One’s Hand_1

Yan Ling sighed, knowing that for the rescue mission to go smoothly, much depended on Qi Yunjue.

Only by helping him recover his memory ahead of time and then disguising him as King could the mission be successfully accomplished in this perilous environment.

However, even the first step of the plan was proving to be a hurdle.

Not to mention the subsequent plans.

"Miss Yan, I’m sorry for the misunderstanding we had! You can rest assured that we won’t act prematurely and will strictly follow your arrangements. We won’t become a burden anymore," Scorpion apologized, and the other two also set their pride aside and apologized to Yan Ling.

With their mutual understanding strengthened, the four could now cooperate more closely.

"Miss Yan. Now that you’re always around King, are you in any danger? His attitude towards you seems peculiar," Scorpion, with her woman’s intuition, asked.

"What do you mean?" Yan Ling looked at Scorpion in confusion.

Scorpion pressed her lips together.

She found it hard to put her feelings into words, but she felt something strange about King’s attitude towards Yan Ling.

If her suspicions were correct, Yan Ling’s real identity could be exposed at any moment.

"What else could it be? The boss, who doesn’t know his real identity, has fallen for you. What if he forces you into something?" Mole was more straightforward than Scorpion.

A typical blunt youngster.

He dares to speak his mind!

Yan Ling laughed, "Don’t worry. That’s not going to happen."

"But..."

"Were you all present in the flower room at that time?"

The three nodded simultaneously.

"See? Even when he was out of control, he still restrained himself from hurting me. Do you still think he’d force me?"

The three were still concerned.

"Don’t forget, he’s not King. Even though his memories have been altered, his essence remains Qi Yunjue. As long as he is him, he won’t hurt me under any circumstance," Yan Ling showed her trust and certainty in Qi Yunjue. This indirect display of their solid relationship perplexed the trio.

Seeing their envious looks, Yan Ling chuckled.

After the temporary meeting was over, Scorpion chose to stay.

"You..."

"I want to stay and protect you," Scorpion stated her intention plainly.

Yan Ling was touched, "That’s really not necessary. I can protect myself."

"We’ve only just joined your team. If none of us stays with you, other members of the Hidden Guards will definitely find opportunities to give you trouble."

"Do you think I’d be scared of that? Now tell me, what’s your real intention?" Yan Ling didn’t buy Scorpion’s sugar-coated excuse.

Scorpion paused for a moment before speaking her mind, "I don’t trust King."

Indeed, Scorpion wanted to protect Yan Ling, but she had her own selfish reasons.

Everybody knew King was a ruthless killer!

Their leader was now hypnotized, and his current memories were all about King.

There was always a chance he might lose control of his emotions.

If he were to hurt Yan Ling, he would definitely blame himself for the rest of his life once he recovered his memories!

She didn’t want him to do something he would regret for the rest of his life when he wasn’t in control of himself.

Yan Ling could see that Scorpion had deeper feelings for Qi Yunjue than the others.

But her feelings didn’t seem romantic.

What had happened between Scorpion and Qi Yunjue?

Why did she care about him so much?

While Yan Ling was puzzled, she didn’t voice out her questions. Instead, she warned, "Your intuition is correct. He now considers himself the King of the Dark Empire. So when dealing with him, always be on guard. Never treat him as your leader. Any slip could blow our cover and raise suspicion!"
