Perfect Secret Love: The Bad New Wife is a Little Sweet

“If you like it, all of this can be yours,” Ji Xiuran said with a chuckle as he looked at the world below him.

“It can be mine?” The girl also surveyed the land underneath them. This was akin to an empire.

“But you’re Emperor Ji. Are you willing to yield everything to me?” Worriless Nie joked.

“If you want to become Emperor Nie,” Ji Xiuran replied.

“Emperor Nie?” Worriless Nie hastily shook her head. “Forget it, that sounds terrible… I would rather keep being Bai Feng.”

Before the girl could say anything else, the man tugged her into his arms.

Caught off guard, the girl fell against his chest.

When Worriless Nie recovered, a blush instantly covered her face.

She’d never experienced this reddening and heart-racing feeling. Although there were many good-looking men in the world, Ji Xiuran’s uniqueness was irreplaceable.

“Don’t work too hard,” Ji Xiuran softly said.

“You’re the one working hard…” Worriless Nie retorted. “Oh right—lately, the Tong family, the Zhou family, and that Li Chun you defeated have released word that they want your life… You know about that, right?”

“I don’t.” Ji Xiuran shook his head.

“Huh? You don’t know?” Worriless Nie was stunned. “How could you not know? Isn’t that too dangerous?!”

“I don’t care too much about things said by strays.” Ji Xiuran smiled.

“You must protect yourself well, alright?” The girl was filled with worry.

“Mm,” Ji Xiuran agreed.

“Your complexion doesn’t look too good.” The girl carefully examined his face.

“Maybe it’s because of the cold. Let’s go back inside.” Ji Xiuran stood up and naturally took her hand into his before leaving this place.

…

A few days later, inside the study of Emperor Ji’s headquarters:

“Emperor Ji…” Skeleton quickly strode inside.

“Speak,” Ji Xiuran said.

“It’s regarding Miss Worriless.” Skeleton was hesitant.

The man instantly furrowed his brows. “What happened?”

“Miss Worriless… f-fell to the Zhou family, the Tong family, and Li Chun’s ploy… and was captured,” Skeleton reported truthfully.

The always-calm man shot up instantly. Never-seen-before iciness and violent rage erupted from his eyes and veins bulged on his forehead.

He set his hand on his desk as if he was trying to calm himself down.

However, a loud “boom” rang out and wooden pieces scattered everywhere. The desk had been crushed.

“Emperor Ji…”

Skeleton was shocked. This was the first time in his life that he had ever seen his master on the brink of losing all rationality. When had the always-scheming and confident Emperor Ji look the way he did today?!

“Who… leaked it out?” The man was expressionless.

However, Skeleton could sense that the man was restraining the wild beast that was about to shatter its cage and leap outside of him.

“Emperor Ji! No one knows about your relationship with the President of the Fearless Alliance, Bai Feng… I think that someone from our side probably saw Miss Worriless visiting our headquarters… and accidentally divulged it…” Skeleton hastily explained.

“Find them and kill without mercy!” the man commanded.

“Yes…”

“How’s the situation at the Fearless Alliance?” Ji Xiuran asked.

“The Fearless Alliance has no idea Miss Worriless was captured. The Zhou family, the Tong family, and Li Chun paid a huge price this time, but even so, they suffered extensive damage and a dozen or so higher-ups were killed. Miss Worriless fought to the verge of exhaustion, but unfortunately, her opponents were too contemptible and too great in numbers,” Skeleton replied.

The man was frighteningly quiet, but Skeleton could sense the other man’s insuppressible violent undercurrents.
