"Yes, I know, don't worry about me."

Susie Yun said happily, and then grabbed the player by the hair and dragged him into the bushes beside the path like a dead pig.

There was also a shocking trail of blood on the ground, stretching along the direction from which the person was dragged.

Ye Xiao scratched his head and immediately had Ella control a crow familiar to flap its wings and follow, letting the familiar keep an eye on things.

Susie dragged the player to a secluded corner in the bushes, habitually pulled out a scalpel from her clothes, and gestured twice at the latter's chest, who was filled with terror. Then, as if realizing something, she quickly put the scalpel back into her clothes.

"Oh no, no, he's still alive! He's still alive! We don't need to dig anymore!"

The girl clenched her fists excitedly, her tone filled with joy, but the content of her words sent chills down the spines of the players on the ground.

"I actually saw it! That's great... Hmm?"

Susie Yun turned around abruptly, her previously joyful gaze instantly turning as cold as a venomous snake, her eyes meeting those of the crow familiar perched atop several layers of branches.

The eerie sight made Ye Xiao, who shared a view with the crow, feel a chill run down his spine.

"Ah, this is... this is Sister Ella's familiar."

However, upon realizing that the gaze fixed on her was coming from the crow, Susie Yun's eyes quickly softened, and she even jumped up and down a couple of times to wave at the crow.

"I saw him! I really saw him! Thank you, Sister Ella!"

Of course, from the player's perspective as he lay panting on the ground, the girl seemed like a lunatic talking to herself, which made him even more terrified.

He held his breath and, taking advantage of Susie Yun turning around to greet something, reached out and grabbed the ground to try to crawl away.

But clearly, this commotion could not escape the girl's monstrous senses. The moment the soil was brushed by the player's hand, Su Xiyun's beautiful face instantly twisted along her neck, turning around at a very strange angle with a "crack".

The poor player suddenly met Su Xiyun's sinister eyes, his eyes widened, and his heart skipped a beat.

No... is this even human...?

"Almost forgot about you."

Susie Yun's clean boots crunched on the broken branches as she approached the player who was lying on the ground, trembling. She then crouched down and used her sharp fingernails to tear off the guild badge from his body.

"What guild?"

"Yan...Yanwei Battle Group..."

The player's throat tightened, and he swallowed hard. He didn't know why Su Xiyun would ask about his guild name, but he dared not hold back a word. "Junior...Junior...I'm sorry...please let me go...I, I didn't know...Ahhh!!!"

A heart-wrenching growl escaped, but its transmission was cut off by a soundproofing array that had been placed on the ground at some unknown time.

"Shut up."

Susie Yun flicked the blood off the scalpel and spoke succinctly.

The player on the ground covered his face, where a knife had ripped down to his ear, and tears welled up in his eyes from the pain.

Chapter 198 The Resisting Cat

Do you know how long I've been waiting for this day?

"Why did you have to bother me when we finally had a chance to meet?"

"You deserve to die, you deserve to die, you deserve to die..."

The player who had fallen to the ground covered his split mouth and watched as Su Xiyun started rambling on and on, his mind beginning to crumble.

Just when he thought he was about to die, a shout came from the side, attracting Su Xiyun's attention.

"Miss Su?"

Ye Xiao pushed aside the bushes and walked over.

The guy that the players on the ground had just disliked had now reappeared and become their lifeline.

"Mr. Ye... Mr. Ye."

Su Xiyun's gloomy demeanor vanished instantly, and the gradually spreading frenzied killing intent also disappeared abruptly.

"I'm worried something might happen here, so I think it's better to come and check..."

Ye Xiao didn't want to say that he was actually worried that the guy had been ripped off, so he asked, "Are you alright?"

"Oh, I... I'm fine."

The girl clutched her chest with delight; she had been cared for again!

Looking at Su Xiyun's happy face covered in blood, Ye Xiao's expression was slightly complicated. "...Then let's leave and go somewhere else."

"Ah, this guy..."

"It's alright, it's alright, spare him, he's already suffered enough."

Without saying a word, Ye Xiao took Su Xiyun's hand and then gave the player on the ground a look.

The latter was really scared. When it finally saw a chance to escape, it darted into the bushes next to it and ran as fast as it could on all fours. You would have thought it was a badger.

"Ok."

A blush appeared on Su Xiyun's face as she held Ye Xiao's hand in both of hers and said gently.

Judging from this, Miss Su's condition is far from improving; she only behaves normally when she is with him.

Helping the other party get back on track is still a long and arduous task.

Fortunately, the central park was large and secluded, so the horrifying scene was probably only seen by a few passersby. However, to avoid trouble, Ye Xiao quickly led Su Xiyun away from the scene.

As for the player who suffered the most damage, Ella sent a raven to follow him.

“Ms. Su… thank you for your concern earlier, but I think it’s better to communicate peacefully with people as much as possible.”

Ye Xiao took Su Xiyun's hand and led her to an open space by a lake, then used a handkerchief to wipe the bloodstains from her face.

Susie Yun nodded, her face slightly flushed.

Ye Xiao wasn't sure if she had listened to him. After cleaning up the bloodstains that the girl had accidentally gotten on her, Ye Xiao let go of her hand.

But the next second, the other party reflexively grabbed Ye Xiao's hand as he was about to withdraw.

"What's wrong?"

Ye Xiao asked in confusion.

"No...nothing."

Susie said this, but her hands were gripping tightly.

After a couple of silent tugs, unable to pull it back, Ye Xiao finally decided to give up.

Never mind, let her be.

But what should we do about her mental state?

"Ye Xiao..."

"Ok?"

"Do you...do you think I'm weird?"

Susie Yun suddenly asked.

"Ah? Why do you say that?"

Ye Xiao was stunned. What kind of question was this?

And how should one answer this? Saying "it's not strange" would seem like an avoidance of the issue, and wouldn't be good for correcting Su Xiyun's mental state; but saying "it's strange" would be hurtful, since it was ultimately his fault...

“Just…just…”

Susie Yun pursed her pink lips and murmured softly, "We've only met a few times... and yet I'm still clinging to you like this..."

Huh? Is this what she finds strange?

Ye Xiao was momentarily unable to keep up with the girl's train of thought.

"That's right!"

However, before Ye Xiao could answer, a babyish meowing sound came from his coat collar.

A golden retriever peeked out, pointing its front paw at Su Xiyun. Its big, fluffy eyes widened like saucers. "Are you even close to Ye Xiao? You're being so affectionate! It's so indecent, you have absolutely no ladylike modesty!"

Ye Xiao's lips twitched involuntarily. In his memory, this maid had only met him a few times before and was already tugging at him. How could she have the nerve to talk about others like that?

"Eh?"

Su Xiyun looked at the golden kitten that had popped out from Ye Xiao's collar in surprise, "This...this cat can talk?"

"Of course! Let me tell you, Ye Xiao is mine!"

Greta scurried up to Ye Xiao's head and loudly declared her ownership, "You're not allowed to be so intimate with him without my permission! Ah! Ye Xiao, why are you grabbing me!"

Su Xiyun looked on in bewilderment as Ye Xiaodi tucked the flailing kitten by the scruff of its neck and then tucked it back into her collar.

"Don't get too excited, Gladys. It's not what you think... cough. And, Miss Su, let me introduce you. This is Gladys. In a way, what she just said is indeed correct."

Ye Xiao coughed twice. "I don't think I've told you much about my life yet. A lot happened during my time in the Royal City of Loren."

Susie nodded as if she understood, then waved to the golden retriever and greeted it, "Um, hello, Miss Greta?"

"I'm not good at it!"

Greta huffed, then Ye Xiao gently tapped her on the head. She then straightened her cat-like face, twitched her whiskers, and greeted Susie Yun, "Hello!"

Afterwards, Ye Xiao briefly explained the situation behind the imperial city and the matters that his three partners were discussing in the palace.

Three partners... Ye Xiao himself felt this was a bit outrageous, but as an honest and good man, he felt it was necessary to be open and honest with Su Qianyun about this beforehand.

"Three...three lovers."

Su Xiyun was stunned when she heard this. She had always thought Ye Xiao was a loner, but she never expected that there would be such a thing.

"Even the Holy Maiden is one...?"

Susie Yun recalled Ella's behavior; indeed, her tone was very affectionate when she mentioned Ye Xiao.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and her hands holding Ye Xiao's became weak.

Her lifelong pillar of support had already found someone else.

"Yes."

Ye Xiao scratched his head. "I understand what you think of me, Miss Su, so I feel it's my responsibility to tell you this... But of course, no matter what you think of me later, Miss Su, I will take responsibility for you."

Putting aside the fact that becoming the Ripper made her somewhat mentally unstable, in Ye Xiao's understanding, Su Xiyun was still a girl with a rather conservative and introverted personality.

Therefore, perhaps she cannot accept the idea of ​​one person having multiple partners.

If that's the case, then Ye Xiaoming, who clearly sensed the other person's affection for her, deliberately concealed it, which would be somewhat inhuman.

Chapter 199 Miss Su's Confusion

Seeing the girl remain silent for a moment, Ye Xiao guessed that he might have guessed correctly.

But no matter what, as he said, even if Su Xiyun dislikes him because of this, he still has to do his part to help her resolve her inner conflict.

Facing problems is the only way to solve them. We cannot ignore potential pitfalls in future relationships just because we feel comfortable for a moment.

"Mr. Ye... what do you think of me?"

Su Xiyun raised her head, her watery eyes looking into Ye Xiao's eyes.

"...What about you?"

"Ah."

Ye Xiao pondered for a moment. He actually wanted to say that he loved every beautiful girl who loved him, but if he said that, he might get beaten to death by Greta first, let alone Susie Yun.

"Well!"

When Greta saw Ye Xiaozhen deep in thought, she immediately became annoyed. "You're up to no good, aren't you? You're not going to kidnap another one, are you?"

Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow and then gently stroked Greta's head.

"I have to admit that there isn't much of an emotional foundation between you and me, Miss Su."

He said softly, "In fact, we've only met a few times in total."

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, a hint of sadness flashed in Su Qianyun's bright eyes.
