Chapter 2608: Second Brother Pursuing His Wife (9)

Ye Shao picked up Ye Yu and Ning Yuan at the tarmac.

Compared to when he saw Ye Shao in the capital, he looked thinner. He was still wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and the upturned eyes under the glasses were charming and bright.

Ye Shao personally drove them to a castle.

Ever since Ye Shao took over Yukou Border, Ye Yanfeng and Shangguan Wan had given him the power to manage it. The two of them had traveled around the world half a year ago.

Ye Shao arranged a room for them.

Ye Yu was going for an inspection with Ye Shao, so Ning Yuan had nothing to do and slept in the room.

When Ye Yu returned, it was already evening.

Ning Yuan was sitting on the sofa watching television. Hearing footsteps, she turned to look at him.

Ye Yu’s expression looked a little heavy. He walked over and put his arm around Ning Yuan’s slender shoulders, saying softly, “Someone will bring you dinner later. I still have something on and might be back very late. Apart from the person who brings you food, don’t open the door for anyone.”

Ning Yuan had a bad feeling in her heart.

Was something big going to happen here tonight?

Although she was full of doubts, she knew that it was best not to ask things that she should not ask!

Not long after Ye Yu left, someone brought a sumptuous meal over.

Ning Yuan was worried that something would happen and had no appetite. She only ate a little before putting down her chopsticks.

She stood by the window and looked at the backyard of the castle.

This uneasiness continued until the latter half of the night.

She fell asleep on the sofa and suddenly there was a loud bang.

Ning Yuan immediately got up and walked toward the window.

There was a large fire in the castle and the dark night sky was dyed red.

Ning Yuan’s heart was in her throat.

What had happened?

Ning Yuan wanted to go out and take a look, but thinking of Ye Yu’s instructions, she could only wait in the room.

She walked back and forth until the sky turned bright.

The door was opened from the outside and seeing Ye Yu, whose eyes were red from the sleepless night, Ning Yuan ran over and jumped into his arms.

“What happened?”

Seeing the faint shadow under Ning Yuan’s eyes, Ye Yu knew that she had not slept well. Reaching out his long arm, he pulled her into his arms.

“Do you remember when you bumped into a woman in the capital?”

Ning Yuan nodded.

“She’s a spy. After Momo brought her back, she was locked in the basement of the castle’s annex building. Her accomplices have been trying to save her.”

“Yaoyao used a trick to make her accomplice sneak into the basement last night. The two sides fought and that spy’s accomplice tried his best to save her. She could have escaped, but she took a bullet for Yaoyao.”

“Right at the center.”

“When her accomplices saw this, they blew up the basement, but Momo had already set up an inescapable net. Her accomplices have been caught and are now being interrogated!”

Ning Yuan did not dare to imagine how dangerous last night had been.

She sized up Ye Yu and hurriedly grabbed his hand. “What about you? Are you injured?”

“No.”

Ning Yuan jumped into his arms and hugged his muscular waist tightly. “Go take a bath and sleep.”

“There are still many things to settle. I came back to tell you so that you won’t worry.”

Tears appeared in Ning Yuan’s eyes. She realized that he had changed a lot.

She learned to understand, tolerate and be frank.

He was no longer domineering and willful.

Ye Yu let go of Ning Yuan’s slender shoulders and was about to turn and leave when Ning Yuan caught up to him and asked softly, “What about that spy? How is she?”

“Dead.”
