After being reborn, I hugged the villainous boss tightly.

Ye Fan was still worried about Fu Yizhou, so after hiding Miao Xingren, he went back to find him.

"Fu Yizhou, wake up!"

Fu Yizhou opened his eyes and saw her worried gaze, which warmed his heart.

"I knew you'd come back!"

Ye Fan pursed his lips: "Stop talking, I'll take you away!"

"We can't leave!"

As soon as Fu Yizhou finished speaking, a large group of people suddenly walked out from all around. Batu looked at the two people in front of him and raised an eyebrow.

"What kind of time is this to still be thinking about each other? What a pair of lovesick fools!"

As he spoke, he looked at Fu Yizhou: "But what I can't understand the most is that His Highness the Crown Prince has a penchant for married women!"

Fu Yizhou looked up at him coldly: "Batu, I am the Crown Prince of Dazhao. If you release Ye Fan, I can grant your request."

Upon hearing this, Batu smiled and said, "Your Highness, don't forget that this is barbarian territory. You are now in my hands. I will use you to threaten Fu Chenchu. I'm afraid I will gain more from that!"

“Batu, you overestimate Fu Chenchu. Given his personality, if he knew that his son had been used to threaten him and that he had lost face, he would not only refuse to agree to anything you asked, but he would also disregard everything and raze the barbarians to the ground!”

Batu narrowed his eyes: "What can Your Highness give me?"

"If I remember correctly, you have an older brother named Bach. He killed your mother and then joined Dazhao. Now he is a high-ranking official in the court. Because of your relationship with Dazhao, you have to put aside this hatred!"

When Bach was mentioned, Batu's eyes instantly turned fierce.

The barbarians were originally a powerful people, but Bach surrendered to Emperor Dazhao and revealed everything about them to him, including the topographical maps. This exposed the barbarians' terrain, leading to their defeat by Dazhao and their eventual submission.

Seeing that he was wavering, Fu Yizhou continued, "If you release us, I can hand him over to you to deal with!"

Ye Fan had no idea what they were talking about, so he could only listen obediently.

"Why should I believe you? If I let you go back on your word, I'll end up with nothing!"

As he spoke, he glanced wickedly at the woman beside him: "Why don't we leave her here? Seeing how anxious His Highness the Crown Prince is for her, he certainly won't ignore her!"

"no!"

Fu Yizhou refused without even thinking.

"If you don't release her, it will all be for nothing!"

"All negotiations are only valid if her safety is guaranteed!"

For some reason, Ye Fan's eyes suddenly welled up with tears.

Batu thought carefully for a while before speaking: "Then I will trust you this once and let you leave. I hope the Crown Prince will keep his promise and hand the people over to me!"

"must!"

As Batu spoke, his men parted to make way for him.

Ye Fan quickly helped him up and left.

Batu watched Ye Fan's cautious movements and smiled, "Madam Miao, please convey my apology to Lord Miao!"

When Batu mentioned "Madam Miao," Fu Yizhou gave him a cold glance.

Batu's smile deepened even further.

Batu was too sinister; his eyes seemed to draw people in when he looked at them. Ye Fan didn't dare to meet his gaze and quickly left with his head down.

She was walking too fast and didn't notice the dead tree under her feet. She almost fell over, but luckily Fu Yizhou pulled her back.

However, her hands were not spared either; the back of her hand was cut.

Fu Yizhou saw her bleeding hand, took it and examined it.

"It's alright, let's get out of here quickly, Xingren is still waiting for us up ahead..."

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly felt a warmth on the back of her hand. Fu Yizhou had actually lowered his head and gently licked the scratches on the back of her hand with his tongue.

Ye Fan was startled and instinctively tried to pull his hand back.

"Don't move!" Fu Yizhou gripped her hand tightly.

He said as he licked the wound, "Saliva can disinfect and prevent infection!"

Ye Fan frowned. The scene seemed very familiar, overlapping with the scene in his dream.

Feeling a tingling, itchy sensation on the back of his hand, Ye Fan knew their actions were inappropriate and forcefully withdrew his hand.

"Your Highness, my husband is waiting for us up ahead. Let's hurry over!"

As she spoke, she turned and walked forward.

Fu Yizhou looked at his empty hands and felt a sharp pang in his heart!

Miao Xingren watched the two people walking one after the other, his gaze falling on Ye Fan's face. Seeing that she had no expression towards Fu Yizhou, he curved the corners of his lips into a smile.

"Husband!" Ye Fan went over and hugged him tightly.

Miao Xingren reached out and hugged her back, then looked defiantly at Fu Yizhou behind her.

Fu Yizhou met his gaze coldly, his face expressionless.

"Now that Lord Miao is safe and sound, let's go back!"

After saying that, he didn't look at the two of them again and left.

On the way back, Miao Xingren intentionally or unintentionally showed affection to Ye Fan in front of Fu Yizhou. Seeing Fu Yizhou's face turn ashen with anger, he felt very pleased.

Three days later, they returned to Jindu.

Miao Miao burst into tears of joy upon seeing her father.

"Father doesn't want me and Mother anymore!"

When Miao Xingren saw Miao Miao crying, his heart ached, and he quickly picked her up to comfort her.

"Daddy had some trouble and can't come back. Miaomiao, please forgive Daddy!"

"Uh-huh!"

Miao Miao cried uncontrollably. She looked up at Fu Yizhou and said, "It's a good thing Uncle was here, otherwise Daddy wouldn't have been able to come back. Did Daddy thank Uncle?"

Seeing Miao Miao crying her eyes out, Fu Yizhou felt a warmth in his heart. Then he glared at Ye Fan with a hint of resentment. Even a child knows how to express gratitude, yet she is so cold to him.

"Thank you for saving me, Your Highness!"

Miao Xingren didn't want to make a bad impression on his daughter, so he nodded to Fu Yizhou.

"No need. If someone hadn't begged me so desperately, I wouldn't have gone to save you!" Fu Yizhou said coldly to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan noticed that he was staring straight at her, so she lowered her eyes.

Miao Miao opened her bright eyes and looked at him. Seeing his cold face, she tumbled to the ground and walked up to Fu Yizhou, sweetly asking, "Uncle, are you unhappy?"

Fu Yizhou saw her clear eyes and his heart softened: "No!"

"Alright, Miaomiao, we have to go back now. Your uncles and aunts at home miss you very much!"

Miao Xingren didn't want Miao Miao to have any contact with Fu Yizhou, so he picked her up and turned to leave.

Ye Fan kept his head down and didn't look at him once the whole time.

Fu Yizhou had initially considered forcibly keeping Ye Fan, but seeing her cold eyes, he dared not take a step forward.

"master!"

Just as he was engrossed in watching, a man in black suddenly appeared behind him.

When Fu Yizhou saw the man in black remove his mask, the face that was revealed seemed strangely familiar to him.

"Who are you!"

Ying frowned and looked up at Fu Yizhou.

"Master, it is Shadow!"

"film?"

"I've only just finished the task you entrusted to me, Master. Please calm down!"

Fu Yizhou scrutinized him carefully: "What is it?"

"Ye Zhenyu has been cured by me."
