164: Chapter 164 Awkward Approach 164: Chapter 164 Awkward Approach “Yes, he is a very good friend of mine from abroad.” Ye Shikai pointed at Nightmare and secretly said to Zhang Ting, “He is quite a loner, and he has a violent temper, not knowing how to be gentle with women, so you better not provoke him.”
He looks quite handsome to me, and he has the aura of a scholar.
Where is this violent temperament?” Zhang Ting was half-doubtful.
Nightmare was dressed in white, looking like a gentle young man, which was very appealing to girls.
However, calling him ‘God of Slaughter’ was not an exaggeration at all; otherwise, why would people call him ‘Nightmare’?
“Hey, handsome, hello there.” Ignoring Ye Shikai’s warning, Zhang Ting approached Nightmare and greeted him enthusiastically, perhaps because the arrest of Xun Long had finally lifted a weight off her chest, Zhang Ting was in a good mood.
“Oh.” Nightmare gave Zhang Ting a cold glance and replied with an indifferent word, causing Zhang Ting to feel quite embarrassed.
Ah, with Nightmare’s reticent nature, it seems impossible for him to find a girlfriend.
Considering Zhang Ting’s tall figure and good looks, any man would be moved, but the beauty trick seemed to have no effect on Nightmare.
“You are Ye Shikai’s friend, right?
I am his friend too.” Zhang Ting patted Nightmare’s shoulder to cover her awkwardness, just as she finished speaking, Nightmare’s halberd was suddenly pointing at Zhang Ting’s neck, then he coldly said in a chilling tone, “Dare to directly call Lord Netherworld King by his name, I’ll spare you this time, but don’t do it again.” After that, he lowered his halberd.
Zhang Ting was startled by Nightmare’s sudden action.
Just now, she felt the presence of death, Nightmare’s action was totally unexpected, and she was frozen in place while Nightmare had already vanished like a gust of wind.
Ah!” Ye Shikai patted the stunned Zhang Ting, resulting in her letting out a sharp scream.
“Hey, you’re not dead yet, stop yelling.” Ye Shikai’s face was exasperated, “With such little courage and still being a police officer, if you ever meet an opponent, you might be killed before you even realize it.”
He held his weapon to my neck.” Zhang Ting said excitedly, “I almost died, what kind of man is so rough?”
“You’re not some delicate lady either, how do they call you at the police station?
Bitch.” Ye Shikai laughed loudly.
Zhang Ting’s Martial Force was quite formidable among women, but she was still powerless in front of a cultivator.
“Say that again.” Zhang Ting shouted indignantly, swinging a palm at Ye Shikai, but he easily dodged and calmly said, “If your police station had more cultivators, Xun Long wouldn’t have escaped so easily.”
“Cultivators, I’ve heard some about them from Director Song.” Unexpectedly to Ye Shikai, Zhang Ting had heard of cultivators.
Song Tian is the chief of the police, and Ye Shikai suspected his connection with the National Security Bureau.
As a core institution in Huaxia, the bureau definitely harbored powerful individuals, and the fact that Song Tian shared information about cultivators with Zhang Ting showed he held her in high regard.
“Cultivators usually don’t reveal themselves, but recently the situation has become chaotic, it’s not like before.” Ye Shikai murmured, “Huaxia is about to go through a big change.”
“What did that man mean calling you…
Netherworld King?” Zhang Ting recalled what Nightmare had said earlier.
“Uh, it’s nothing, let’s hurry and leave.” Ye Shikai avoided the topic, knowing that it would be no good for Zhang Ting to know about it.
After the two parted ways, Ye Shikai drove off and returned to the villa.
These past few days he had been helping Zhang Ting with her investigation work without focusing much on his own work.
As he opened the door, Ye Shikai was startled to see Su Qingyu and Su Ziqing sitting on the couch, staring coldly at him.
“Hey, why are you all staring at me like that?
I’m kind of hungry,” Ye Shikai felt a bit awkward and sat down on the sofa.
“Nanny Wu came out of the kitchen, beaming, “Is the young master back?
Dinner will be ready soon.”
“Just wait a moment, Nanny Wu, I have something to discuss with him,” Su Qingyu said lightly.
Do you need me for something?” Ye Shikai was a bit puzzled, while Su Ziqing next to him was watching with a gleeful expression on her face, as if her face spelled “confess and be lenient, resist and be strict.”
“What have you been up to these past few days?
You didn’t come to work today either,” Su Qingyu handed Ye Shikai a cup of hot water.
By now, she was not as easily angered as before.
Had it been the previous Ye Shikai missing a few days of work, she would have been very angry, but now she knew that Ye Shikai’s identity was not just that of a mere ordinary person, so she was somewhat understanding.
“Sis, you’re too nice to your husband.
A scumbag like him probably went out to have fun when he wasn’t at the company for a day,” Su Ziqing blurted out directly, this little lady was always stirring trouble, even calling Ye Shikai a scumbag.
“Be quiet, sit there, I’m talking to him,” Su Qingyu chided in a low voice.
Su Ziqing, who was most afraid of her sister, didn’t dare to speak under such scolding, and sat on the sofa with an extremely wronged expression.
“Qingyu, remember Officer Zhang Ting from last time?
Recently, there was a bit of an issue at the police station, and Mr.
Song asked me to help out.
I forgot to give you a heads up,” Ye Shikai said, looking at Su Ziqing triumphantly to see how she would falsely accuse him now.
“How did it go then?” Su Qingyu asked slowly after knowing the situation.
“There was a criminal who escaped from jail, and I went to assist them in solving the case.”
Did you get hurt?” Su Qingyu asked with concern, which warmed Ye Shikai’s heart.
“Oh, catching criminals is very exhausting and also very dangerous.
Just now, I got injured while fighting with a criminal,” Ye Shikai pretended to be tired, though he wasn’t injured, but why pass up a chance to get spoiled by his wife?
Hearing that Ye Shikai was ‘injured’, Su Qingyu immediately got anxious and kept rubbing Ye Shikai’s arm, while he enjoyed the warmth from her small hands.
“Don’t go next time; it’s too dangerous.
You’re not a policeman, no need to be so reckless,” Su Qingyu exclaimed tenderly, and Ye Shikai nodded slightly.
“Hey, sis, brother-in-law, you’re feeding me dog food again,” Su Ziqing huffed helplessly.
“Not suitable for children, little one, don’t look,” Ye Shikai turned his head and said unhappily, grabbing a pillow to block Su Ziqing’s face.
“Alright, you two stop it, let’s go eat,” Su Qingyu said softly, her face blushing faintly.
