A concubine? You're more like a joke. I'd rather send you to your death.

As night fell, an uninvited guest arrived at Xueluo Courtyard.

Bai Luoluo was sitting on the bed cultivating her internal energy when she felt a powerful aura approaching. She immediately opened her eyes.

"Who?"

She held the dagger in her hand.

"I never expected that Miss Bai would be practicing internal energy cultivation?"

Ye Ming instantly stood in front of the bed, looking at her with great interest.

"It's you!"

Upon seeing the newcomer, Bai Luoluo remained vigilant.

The general's mansion was heavily guarded, yet this guy brazenly entered, which shows that his martial arts skills were superior to Leng Ye's.

"It's rare that Miss Bai hasn't forgotten me."

Ye Ming sat on a chair to the side, acting as if he were already familiar with the place.

"I never expected Young Master Ye to be a thief. I was really blind before."

Bai Luoluo remained seated on the bed, her expression cold and aloof.

Is this guy friend or foe?

"Miss Bai, you misunderstand. I came to check on your injuries, but it seems they are healed now."

Ye Ming's wicked eyes swept over Bai Luoluo.

"It is inappropriate to break into a woman's boudoir at night, especially since I am not familiar with Young Master Ye; we are just strangers who met by chance."

"That's really heartbreaking to hear. When I heard the news of Miss Bai's injury, I rushed back day and night."

Her tone was somewhat aggrieved, but her fingers were tapping restlessly on the table, each tap making Bai Luoluo very uncomfortable.

She didn't like feeling passive; this man was dangerous.

If she were to shout now, she might be killed on the spot.

"What do you want with me? Don't spout such absurd nonsense. We've only met once, and I don't believe a single word of what you're saying."

Seeing that she was somewhat angry, Ye Ming's lips curled up slightly.

His angry expression is actually quite endearing. If he hadn't been away from the capital, this assassination attempt wouldn't have happened.

He came tonight to genuinely check on the woman's injuries.

"It is fate that we met, and we can be considered friends."

Ye Ming stood up and approached step by step.

Seeing this, Bai Luoluo looked at him warily.

"Now that you've seen it, you can leave. After all, it's not proper for a man and a woman to be alone together."

"You're going to marry Gu Yanchi?"

Ye Ming's breath was somewhat cold as he spoke, but he did not stop walking.

He stopped three steps away from Bai Luoluo and stared at her.

"The Emperor has decreed a marriage."

Stared at like that, Bai Luoluo's expression turned slightly cold, and her beautiful face suddenly darkened.

"If you don't want to marry him, I'll kill him for you."

The voice was extremely cold, like ice and snow in winter, and Bai Luoluo felt a chill all over her body.

The aura of the Night Demon was so strong that Bai Luoluo knew the difference between them was like heaven and earth.

However, this person seems to be mentally ill.

"Gu Yanchi is perfect in every way, so of course I like him. Young Master Ye, please don't joke around."

"you like him?"

Ye Ming's face immediately darkened, and a look of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

He finally met an interesting woman, but she's about to get married.

"Gu Yanchi is very good, I have no reason not to like him."

Ah--

Is this person seriously ill? Why is he running around here in the middle of the night acting crazy?

He seems angry; whether he gets married or not is none of his business.

"She didn't just like Gu Yanjin, but now she's fallen for someone else. I never thought Miss Bai's affections were so cheap."

Ye Ming's tone was clearly mocking, and his whole body exuded coldness.

At this moment, Bai Luoluo really wanted to open her mouth and curse, but since she couldn't beat him, she could only hold back.

"Gu Yanjin is a scumbag. I've seen through his true colors. Now that I've been betrothed by the Emperor, it's natural that I'd like my future husband a little more. Besides, are the two even comparable?"

That's a stupid question. Gu Yanjin isn't even worthy of carrying shoes for her son, Achi.

"Why don't you break off the engagement and marry me instead?"

Ye Ming crossed his arms, his beautiful fox-like eyes alluring and seductive.

"Young Master Ye, please don't joke. If you're sick, go see a doctor. What nonsense are you spouting in the middle of the night?"

At this moment, Bai Luoluo was certain that this person had mental problems.

He sheathed the dagger and secretly gripped the pistol in his hand.

"I am incredibly wealthy, and my talent and appearance are outstanding. Miss Bai would be doing me a great job marrying me."

He tilted his head, neither angry nor annoyed, as if he were very confident in himself.

It gave Bai Luoluo the feeling of being sold a product. This look was pleasing to the eye, but it wasn't her type.

She likes someone who never looks at these things.

The person in front of me exudes an evil aura; he is definitely not a good person.

It seems he knows Gu Yanjin and Gu Yanchi.

Who is it?

Last time, she thought he was just a passerby.

I never expected him to come looking for me; there's no such person in the world of the book.

Ye Ming had no relation to the original owner of this body. Could it be that this guy was attracted to her beauty?

Bai Luoluo felt a chill run down her spine; she might have been a notorious womanizer.

"I have no interest in Young Master Ye, and I hope you will not disturb me in the future."

"But what can I do! I've fallen for Miss Bai at first sight."

Ye Ming's demeanor suddenly changed, his eyes fixed on Bai Luoluo, looking as if he had been drooling over her for a long time.

The two were very close, and an ambiguous atmosphere filled the room. Bai Luoluo felt extremely disgusted by his appearance.

Sure enough, with his sinister appearance, he really is a notorious womanizer.

"A beautiful appearance is a dime a dozen. I thought Young Master Ye looked respectable, but it turns out he's a womanizer. You really can't judge a book by its cover."

Bai Luoluo took three steps back, the pistol already pulled the trigger.

If the man takes another step forward, she wouldn't hesitate to kill him.

Actually, she also wanted to see whether the so-called martial arts were more powerful or her bullets were faster.

Seeing Bai Luo retreating and the annoyance in her eyes, Ye Ming sighed softly.

I really don't care about his appearance.

He stepped back and sat on the soft couch next to him.

"Miss Bai, there's no need to be so wary. I was just joking."

At this moment, Ye Ming said nonchalantly.

He acted as if the lecherous man from before wasn't him at all, and didn't mind Bai Luoluo's sarcastic remarks.

"What do you want?"

Bai Luoluo didn't want to get too involved with him; this man changed his tune too quickly.

"I find Miss Bai quite interesting and would like to be friends. This is the truth, so please don't reject me outright."

Ye Ming didn't want to hear any rejection. Tonight, he had only come to check on her injuries and also wanted to ask her if she was truly willing to marry Gu Yanchi.

As far as he knew, Gu Yanchi wouldn't live long, and she would be a widow after marrying him.

A woman like this shouldn't waste her life.

He had an inexplicable urge to know.

He couldn't forget her after just one meeting; it seems he was indeed attracted to her beauty, but she had no feelings for him.

"Being friends isn't impossible, it's just that we don't know each other well enough, and I don't like friends who barge into my room in the middle of the night."

Bai Luoluo's words were neither a refusal nor an objection; they were just right.

After all, this man was extremely skilled in martial arts; he could kill her with a single shot, but otherwise, she would be the one to die.

Besides, they were just strangers who met by chance, and she couldn't help but be wary of him suddenly saying such strange things.
