Chapter 269 – Hold the Position (Part Three)

While the door was banging loudly inside, the bodyguards outside were all sweating with embarrassment.

When the call from their superior came through, everyone was dumbfounded.

“Hey, where’s the Young Emperor? Put him on the phone!”

Everyone: …………

“Emmm… The Young Emperor is unavailable right now.”

“Unavailable? What could possibly make him unavailable? Put him on the phone!”

Well… Boss, he’s genuinely unavailable!

[Ding! Peach Blossom Points +20!]

The moment the Peach Blossom Points notification sounded in her mind, Ye Yunxi was speechless.

Even while fighting so fiercely, this man could still generate Peach Blossom Points??

Of course he could.

Was this even considered fighting with his wife??

Just kidding, this was flirting!

With a hook of his long leg, he pinned her down, then immediately locked her in place. Di Junxie gazed delightedly at the slight frown on the face of the petite woman beneath him.

“Do you know what As means?”

Ye Yunxi was momentarily stunned—this man changed topics far too quickly!

She struggled briefly but, seeing it was futile, gave up.

With her Stamina at only 520, breaking free from Di Junxie’s hold was simply impossible.

“As?”

She tilted her head in thought.

Most people would assume As was an abbreviation for some English word, but it wasn’t. As wasn’t that complicated—it straightforwardly revealed its true meaning!

“As, the chemical element arsenic, commonly known as rat poison!”

Rat poison, As—this hidden existence was the deadliest poison, nipping all evil in the bud!

“Right, rat poison.” Di Junxie gently twirled her slender hair. “To enter As, you must first join the Royal Duke. We only recruit from the Royal Duke, and even then, you must pass assessments. This time is just your first test.”

As he spoke, Di Junxie slowly released her and cautiously stepped back. He knew this little woman wouldn’t let things slide so easily!

Sure enough, the moment Ye Yunxi stood up, she fixed a vigilant and predatory gaze on him, as if searching for an opening to deliver a fatal blow.

This feeling was truly exhilarating!

Di Junxie lifted his chin slightly, a dangerous curve forming at the corner of his mouth.

How many years had it been since he last felt the thrill of danger!

“And then?”

Seeing no opening—the man’s flawless defense was like an impenetrable Armor wrapped around him—she abandoned any thought of a sneak attack.

“And then, there will be all sorts of assessments in the future.”

Di Junxie approached in high spirits. “Aren’t you excited to get closer to As?”

“Yes.”

Ye Yunxi nodded expressionlessly, then turned and climbed into bed to sleep.

Di Junxie: …………

Did she have to be so calm?

Seeing that it was getting late, he finally went into the Restroom to wash up. By the time he came out, Ye Yunxi was clearly already asleep, the petite woman curled up in a corner, delicate and adorable.

Unconsciously, the corners of his lips lifted. He climbed into bed, pulled her into his embrace again, turned off the light, and went to sleep.

In the middle of the night.

“Oof!”

“Thump!”

Di Junxie landed squarely on his rear, staring wide-eyed at the bed.

Ye Yunxi was sprawled out in sleep, her dainty foot provocatively stretched out right in front of him.

He had actually been kicked out of bed by Ye Yunxi!!

She had been sleeping so peacefully and obediently the past few days—why was she kicking today??

After a moment’s thought, Di Junxie understood what was going on.

This little vixen had held it in all night, just to get back at him with this one kick??Looking up, he noticed the slightly closed eyes under the bedside lamp seemed to twitch faintly. Di Junxie could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.

“Pfft, hahaha!”

Ye Yunxi, could you be any more amusing??
