Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Tell Her, Who Am I?
Shen Yue looked at the woman whose back was turned to her. Hearing what she’d just said, Shen Yue frowned.
’Looks like I was overthinking things.’ She’d originally thought her words had hurt him and he was off sulking by himself.
She hadn’t expected it to be so lively here.
And with a beauty for company, no less.
At that moment, the two subordinates standing nearby also spotted Shen Yue.
A Cheng said nervously,
"Miss Shen Yue!"
A Qi didn’t say anything, just watched quietly with a nervous expression.
Jie Ying saw Bai Chaosi’s expression suddenly change and heard someone call out "Miss Shen Yue."
She slowly turned around.
Her gaze met a pair of eyes that shimmered like starlight on water.
Her heart skipped a beat when she got a clear look at the woman’s stunningly beautiful face, and her hand, hanging at her side, instantly clenched into a fist.
’This woman is gorgeous.’
Jealousy unconsciously flared in her heart.
’Miss Shen Yue?’ she thought, her mind racing.
’Which Miss Shen Yue?’
’When did the Young Master meet a woman this beautiful?’
’Could it be that after leaving Snow Ridge for a month, he came to this barbaric land just to be with her?’
In that instant, a sense of crisis and unease completely overwhelmed her.
The way she looked at Shen Yue kept changing.
But Shen Yue only gave her a single, calm glance before shifting her gaze to Bai Chaosi.
Bai Chaosi looked nervous, staring intently at Shen Yue, trying to read her expression.
He opened his mouth to speak and even took a step toward Shen Yue.
But Shen Yue said coolly,
"My apologies for interrupting."
She then turned to leave.
Bai Chaosi froze. Watching her turn her back on him, his heart clenched.
’Is she angry?’
He opened his mouth to explain.
But before he could, Jie Ying spoke up.
"Stop!"
But the person who had already turned away paid her no mind.
Seeing this, Jie Ying grew furious.
"I told you to stop! Didn’t you hear me?!"
Her voice was haughty and imperious, as if she were trying to intimidate Shen Yue.
When Shen Yue still didn’t stop,
"I said, stop!" she snarled.
Shen Yue paused mid-stride and finally turned back, raising an eyebrow at the other woman.
"Is there a problem?"
Jie Ying’s expression soured. She launched into an interrogation.
"Who are you? Didn’t you see there were people here by the river? Don’t you have any manners, barging in and interrupting a couple’s private conversation?"
As she spoke, she also glanced behind Shen Yue, at the figure lurking in the shadows.
Although she couldn’t make out the person’s features, she instinctively felt it was a man.
Huang Ziyue, standing behind Shen Yue, merely shot Jie Ying a cool glance, not bothering to step out of the shadows.
’This woman is truly obnoxious.’
’At a time like this, I trust Shen Yue can make her own judgments.’
’Although the men usually bicker and compete over Shen Yue, it’s undeniable that we all bear her mark. In other words, we are all her men.’
’Unless Shen Yue truly casts us aside, we have no right to fool around with other women.’
’But tonight, no sooner did Bai Chaosi upset Shen Yue than he’s having a clandestine meeting with another woman.’
’Regardless of their relationship, what that woman just said and her arrogant attitude are enough to land Bai Chaosi in hot water!’
’So, the fox is really in for it now!’
Shen Yue stared at Jie Ying, her expression unreadable. ’Interrupting a couple’s conversation?’
She raised an eyebrow at Bai Chaosi, the corner of her mouth twitching into a smirk.
Bai Chaosi met Shen Yue’s ambiguous, mocking gaze, and his heart seized.
He wanted to see anger and jealousy on her face.
But at the same time, he was terrified she would actually misunderstand.
So, without a second thought, he snapped at Jie Ying,
"Shut up!"
His cold, icy voice stunned Jie Ying.
Her eyes widened.
"Why should I shut up?"
"Who is she? Why are you defending her like this?"
Her intuition couldn’t be wrong. This "Shen Yue" who had appeared out of nowhere was definitely not someone to be trifled with.
A Cheng, standing beside her, was so nervous he wished he could clap a hand over Jie Ying’s mouth.
The Young Master was already struggling to win Miss Shen Yue’s favor, and now Miss Ju Ying was just adding fuel to the fire.
’What are we going to do if Miss Shen Yue misunderstands because of this?’
Jie Ying turned back to Shen Yue, questioning her relentlessly.
"I’m asking you a question! Are you mute? Speak!"
Just as Jie Ying thought she could overwhelm Shen Yue with sheer force of will,
Shen Yue’s eyes darkened.
"If you want someone to answer your questions, you should first learn how to speak properly instead of barking like a stray dog."
Jie Ying’s eyes flew wide. She couldn’t believe Shen Yue dared to speak to her that way.
Choking on her anger, she sputtered,
"What did you say? You dare insult me?"
Shen Yue replied nonchalantly, "Good, as long as you understood."
Then, she looked at Bai Chaosi and commanded him as if he were a dog.
"Come here."
Hearing this, Bai Chaosi’s hurt expression vanished, his eyes lighting up instantly.
Without the slightest hesitation, he unstuck his feet and walked toward Shen Yue.
Jie Ying’s eyes widened in disbelief as she watched how obediently Bai Chaosi listened.
"What are you doing, Young Master? Why are you going to her?"
As she cried out, the man who was famously a neat freak—never allowing anyone within three feet of him—walked right up to Shen Yue and stopped before her.
He was less than a single step away.
Jue Ying’s heart throbbed with tremors...
She couldn’t believe what she was seeing.
"Young Master, what are you doing? How... how can you be so close to her...?"
Huang Ziyue, still standing behind Shen Yue, also raised his eyebrows. It seemed he hadn’t expected Bai Chaosi to be this obedient either.
The two men’s eyes met for a brief moment.
Shen Yue’s lips remained curled in a slight smirk, but her eyes betrayed no emotion as she issued a command like a queen.
"Tell her who I am."
Jie Ying froze, her gaze uncontrollably shifting to Bai Chaosi, waiting for his answer.
Bai Chaosi knew this was Shen Yue giving him a chance to prove himself. The fact that she had come looking for him was already a huge concession on her part.
It meant he wasn’t completely absent from her heart.
But now, she had stumbled upon this scene.
In this moment, he could even feel her possessiveness over him.
For some reason, in the midst of this sour, tense situation, he tasted a trace of sweetness.
He liked this feeling.
’She’s possessive of me, too... in a domineering way.’
He knew this was his only chance. If he didn’t handle this perfectly, she would discard him completely, kicking him out of her life for good.
Huang Ziyue also waited with great interest to see what Bai Chaosi would say, what choice he would make.
Bai Chaosi’s thoughts shifted. He looked at Shen Yue, his gaze firm yet tinged with a hint of grievance.
"You are my Female Master. You are the female mother of my child."
Jie Ying looked as if she had been struck by lightning.
She froze on the spot.
She couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
"Young Master... what did you say?"
’Female Master?’
’A child... what child?’
"What child are you talking about?"
The two subordinates nearby, seeing how shocked Jue Ying was, quickly whispered a reminder.
"Miss Jie Ying, it’s the Young Master!"
"The one Miss Shen Yue bore for our Young Master!"
Jie Ying’s face went deathly pale, and her whole body trembled with rage.
"Impossible! That’s absolutely impossible! How could you two have a child?"
