Back in his sleeping quarters, Ye Qianming's anger had not subsided.
He fancied that woman?
How could he possibly fancy that woman!
Subconsciously, Ye Qianming had already paired up the Evil Doctor with that woman in his mind!
Now all that was missing was the final confirmation.
At this moment, due to Beiqing's words, a surge of anger welled up in Ye Qianming's heart.
Over the years, countless men and women had fallen for Ye Qianming, but he had never so much as glanced properly at anyone!
Thinking of all the sycophantic and disgusting things those who claimed to like him had done, Ye Qianming's expression turned icily grim.
If that's what it means to fancy someone, then he definitely did not fancy that woman!
Yet the thought of that woman escaping from his grasp once again filled Ye Qianming's heart with frustration and rage.
For some reason, he just wanted to capture that woman, to hold her in the palm of his hand, to watch her pride and arrogance become even more spirited in front of him!
That woman... just how many faces does she have?
Bold and cunning, she's got it; intelligent and agile, she's got it; dark and nefarious, she's got it!
Truly ever-changing and utterly unpredictable!
Thinking of how he had repeatedly been thwarted by her and taken advantage of, a complex swirl of emotions rose in Ye Qianming's heart.
He gritted his teeth fiercely: "Don't let me catch you! Otherwise..."
He was determined to reclaim it all!
Ye Qianming himself hadn't noticed that when he spoke of Luo Qingtong, there was gritting of teeth, shame, and suppressed anger, but the only thing absent was the intent and aura of a killer.
If Beiqing and the others were here, they would definitely be shouting internally: My lord, do you have some kind of misunderstanding about the word 'like'?!
This isn't liking then what is?
If it were someone else, not to mention taking advantage of you, even a single touch would mean death!
However, with no one else around, nobody knows the thoughts running through Ye Qianming's mind at this moment.
While Ye Qianming was single-mindedly intent on capturing Luo Qingtong, she had already begun her return journey to Dongli Country, along with the War Slaves she had purchased.
Everyone, including Ye Qianming, never imagined that Luo Qingtong would actually be a citizen of Dongli Country!
As a result, every Black Domain Suburb received orders to investigate the whereabouts of Evil Doctor Ghost Eyes, except within the borders of Dongli Country, where everything remained calm!
The City Lord of Dongli Country's Black Domain Suburb, after reporting Luo Qingtong's departure, devotedly guarded Luo Qingtong's mansion, waiting for the moment the Evil Doctor would return, so as to notify the Lord immediately!
As for investigating her whereabouts?
Heh!
How could someone like the Evil Doctor possibly be from Dongli Country?!
Especially since even among the Lower-class Countries, Dongli Country is unanimously considered at the bottom!
The Evil Doctor could never be from Dongli Country!
Hence, amid the turbulent search for her outside, Luo Qingtong's journey was exceptionally smooth!
It could almost be described as comfortable.
However, this comfort was soon shattered by some news heard along the way!
"Hey, have you heard? The Luo Family is planning to break off the engagement with the Tianyu Royal Family, infuriating the Imperial Family! Now they're facing suppression all over the place and having a really tough time in Dongli Country!"
"Isn't that the truth! Ah! We've heard too! The Luo Family has such bad luck. It was totally normal for them to want to break off the engagement after what the Tianyu Royal Family did, wasn't it? Would they really want to see their granddaughter jump into a pit of fire? I truly admire Old Master Luo for his manliness! It's just a pity!"
"Yeah! The Luo Family is indeed having a very difficult time in Dongli Country now!"
