Chapter 72.1

Wen Chi: “…”

Originally, he was still furiously questioning Shi Ye but he was confused after Shi Ye slapped him back like that.

What did this have to do with him?!

Wasn’t the wooden box given to him by Shi Ye?!

Wen Chi thought of the things in the wooden box and thought how Hua Zi Zang’s had looked at him with an embarrassed expression before and then simply avoided him, it all came to him in a flash – it turned out that Hua Zi Zang had opened the wooden box a long time ago and had seen the contents of the box. So perhaps Hua Zi Zang thought he had given him those things on purpose.

At this moment, Wen Chi wanted to die.

He was so ashamed that his whole face was about to burn and he didn’t even care about his fear of Shi Ye and whispered angrily: “I said that I didn’t open the wooden box and I didn’t know what’s inside. If I knew if it contained… those things, I would not give the wooden box to Hua Zi Zang even if you kill me!”

Hearing this, the frost in Shi Ye’s eyes seemed to have subsided a lot, but he still stared at Wen Chi suspiciously.

Wen Chi’s face turned red and his almond eyes were full of anger, he clutched Shi Ye’s clothes and said through clenched teeth, “You’re the one who gave me those inexplicable things, you, you’re really ……”.

The word “shameless” got stuck in Wen Chi’s throat and he couldn’t squeeze it out for a long time.

Although Wen Chi was furious, fortunately he still retained the last sliver of reason. If he really said the last word, I’m afraid he would be thrown from the tree by Shi Ye on the spot.

So Wen Chi swallowed those words silently and said instead: “You are really too much!”

Shi Ye didn’t speak and silently endured Wen Chi’s glaring. It wasn’t until he was sure that Wen Chi really didn’t know that the cold air around him slowly dissipated. He hugged Wen Chi tightly and turned his gaze to the clearing again and faintly said: “Bengong also did not know what was in the wooden box.”

“You’re talking nonsense!” Wen Chi didn’t believe it, “If you didn’t know, how could you ask Xiao Shuanzi to give me the wooden box?”

Because Shi Ye was wearing a mask, Wen Chi couldn’t see his expression.

But Shi Ye’s tone didn’t sound like he was lying: “I only asked Zhu Xian to prepare some gifts for you and I didn’t ask what Zhu Xian gave.”

Wen Chi said quietly: “This is already the second time.”

Shi Ye was dumbstruck.

Wen Chi said, “This is the second time you have given me those things.”

Shi Ye looked at Wen Chi’s blushing face calmly, was silent for a while, raised his hand and stroked the strand of hair that was blown to Wen Chi’s eyes by the wind, behind Wen Chi’s ear and then sighed: “I didn’t lie to you, I really don’t know what’s in the wooden box, if I knew…”

Having said that, Shi Ye paused.

Wen Chi’s curiosity was aroused: “And?”

Shi Ye put one arm around Wen Chi’s waist, stroked Wen Chi’s hair with the other hand. His fingertips were icy and cold, slowly tracing Wen Chi’s skin.

Until it reaches the back of Wen Chi’s neck.

His fingertips gently pressed and pinched the back of his neck, with a different kind of meaning.

Wen Chi was so nervous that he stopped breathing, and his heart rose to his throat.

Watching Shi Ye’s face in a pure black mask approaching, Wen Chi leaned against the tree trunk behind him, there was no way out, his body was almost stretched into a straight line.

Afterwards, he heard Shi Ye say in his ear: “If I had known, I would not have given you such an important thing under the guise of someone else’s hands, Bengong would have made you use it with my own hands.”

Wen Chi was shocked and suddenly turned his head to look at Shi Ye.

After a long time, Wen Chi finally couldn’t hold back and cursed with a trembling voice: “You are really a beast.”

Shi Ye said with a smile, “Bengong doesn’t deny it.”

Wen Chi: “…”

Wen Chi felt that the fire on his cheeks was burning to the base of his ears and his taut body was trembling slightly with anger. He knew he couldn’t say anything to Shi Ye, so he simply turned his head away from him.

He turned his head and saw that the kidnappers below were already chatting about those jades.

What had the kidnappers not done in this chaotic place? Naturally, he recognized the function of those jades at a glance and while they were surprised, they could not help but be impressed by the quality of the jade.

The leader of the kidnapper held a piece of jade and looked at it by the candlelight for a long time and sighed, “To say that the things in the palace are good, just a few of the ones taken out to stuff our asses are of the finest quality we’ve never seen.”

“Yes, yes.” The younger brother next to him quickly nodded in agreement, “It’s a pity that these good jade are used to stuff the a**hole.”

Another little brother said: “And it’s even in a man’s a**hole.”

As they said that, they all turned their heads to look at Hua Zi Zang who was about to faint from shame, only to see Hua Zi Zang who stood up with great difficulty had sat back down, with his head buried in his chest, as quiet as a chicken.

The leader of the kidnappers stuffed the wooden box into the younger brother’s arms, stood up from the reclining chair, and walked towards Hua Zi Zang with a jade.

He used the jade to lift Hua Zi Zang’s chin.

Hua Zi Zang reluctantly lifted his head, his face and eyes were full of humiliated anger but he was still forced by the leader of the kidnappers to raise his chin.

With two lanterns hovering around, the leader of the kidnappers could see the appearance of Hua Zi Zang clearly.

He saw a bruise on the corner of Hua Zi Zang’s mouth, as if he had been taught a lesson but this small blemish was not enough to affect the beauty of his entire face. He was still very handsome with bright eyes and white teeth, even though he was slumped on the ground in such a state of embarrassment, it can be seen that he used to be the handsome young man who made the hearts of thousands of boys and girls flutter.

T/N – This is an irrelevant but funny story. The other day, I had this chinese language mock exam. And my friend saw my messy handwriting and she was like “Your characters looks like it’s been chewed by a dog!”And the first thing that came to my head was, maybe this is what Wen Chi’s dog crawling letters must have looked like as well. LOL But in my opinion my characters are…ahem…recognizable….as long as you know what your looking for… [End of funny story]
