Supernatural Insight Eyes-Chapter 128 - 0126 Yin Shaoxiong!

Before Ye Qiu had returned, Shangguan Hong received a notification from her family, informing her that she was to be married into the Yin family.

Originally, Shangguan Hong was thinking about how to make it clear to Yin Shaoxiong that it was impossible between the two of them, but unexpectedly, such news came from the family side, hitting her head like a bolt from the blue.

"I won’t marry!" Shangguan Hong’s first sentence was a refusal.

From the other end of the phone came the domineering voice of her aunt, "Shangguan Hong, you have no say in this matter unless you want to see the Shangguan family decline from now on and have the empire built by the old master fall into ruin because of you."

"The old master’s doting on you is known to everyone in the family, but over the years, you’ve still lived according to your own will. Now, when the family is facing a crisis, what does personal sentiment count for in the face of great moral duty?"

"I won’t marry!" Shangguan Hong did not relent.

"Shangguan Hong, do you not care about your grandfather’s life and death?" her aunt said loudly.

"What does my marrying into the Yin family have to do with grandfather’s illness?"

"Heh... do you even know what kind of medicinal herbs your friend has asked us to find?" her aunt said with a cold laugh.

Shangguan Hong fell silent. She didn’t know what medicinal herbs Ye Qiu had asked the family to find. She only heard Shangguan Shu say, "Now all the herbs have been found, except for the last one."

"Do you know who has that hardest-to-find herb? It’s in the hands of the Yin family. If you marry over, the Yin family will naturally bring out this rare medicine to treat the old master. Otherwise, without this herb, I believe your friend won’t be able to cure the old master either."

"Now you have two choices. First, you can choose not to marry; the missing herb will be very hard to find again, and the old master’s illness can only drag on, with no one able to say how long he can hold on. Second, you marry into the Yin family, and the Yin family willingly provides the herb, and there is hope for the old master’s life. As for whether you choose to insist on not marrying or to save the old master’s life, weigh it yourself!" After saying this, Shangguan Shu hung up the phone.

To save her grandfather or to continue on her own path, Shangguan Hong found herself in painful turmoil.

When Ye Qiu appeared, Shangguan Hong had already made her decision; she would marry to save her beloved grandfather, sacrificing her own happiness.

When Ye Qiu heard that Shangguan Hong was going to marry Yin Shaoxiong, he was somewhat dazed for a moment before regaining his composure, "Have you really decided?"

Shangguan Hong nodded but did not reveal the real reason and thoughts behind marrying into the Yin family.

The room fell into a brief silence.

After a while, Shangguan Hong said to Ye Qiu, "I want to get drunk, will you join me?"

With her eyes red and wide open, Shangguan Hong looked pleadingly at him. Unable to refuse those eyes, the two left the Goddess Villa and went to a nearby bar.

The bar was filled with loud music, and many young men and women dressed revealingly danced on the stage, swaying with the music and releasing themselves; the lights were glittering, creating a stark contrast with the outside world.

Shangguan Hong sat in a chair, ordered a dozen beers, and started drinking from the bottles as if drinking water.

Ye Qiu wanted Shangguan Hong to slow down and grabbed the bottle from her, but when Shangguan Hong’s eyes met his again, Ye Qiu’s hand loosened, meeting her gaze, he said, "Alright, if you want to get drunk, I’ll drink with you."

The number of empty bottles on the table in front of them kept increasing; in less than half an hour, they had drunk most of a dozen beers.

Today’s Shangguan Hong was utterly different from usual, especially the way she drank, leaving the surrounding people in awe.

Shangguan Hong drank fiercely and became drunk quickly, her eyes soon becoming blurry.

With her hair disheveled, though she had not put much effort into her appearance that day, her natural beauty still made her exceptionally beautiful, a beauty that attracted not only Ye Qiu but also many ill-intentioned gazes.

Ye Qiu knew that with a great beauty like Shangguan Hong entering a bar, there would inevitably be attempts to hit on her, and even with Ye Qiu by her side, those who would approach her wouldn’t be few.

Soon, just as Ye Qiu had anticipated, a young man with dyed yellow hair walked over with a glass in hand.

"Beautiful lady, have a drink and let’s be friends, what do you say?" The sleazy gaze of the blond young man kept sweeping over Shangguan Hong’s chest, completely ignoring Ye Qiu standing beside her.

Shangguan Hong, dazed from drinking, sat there, groggy.

Ye Qiu instantly stood in front of Shangguan Hong, blocking the blond young man’s lewd gaze.

"Hey, bro, is this chick yours?" the blond young man asked nonchalantly, not caring about Ye Qiu.

In his eyes, Ye Qiu, dressed ordinarily, didn’t seem like a person of power or influence, and thus, the blond young man was not afraid of him.

Moreover, Ye Qiu was spoiling his fun by blocking his view, which angered the blond young man.

"Such a beautiful woman isn’t suitable for you. Better leave now, I’ll keep her company and drink with her," the blond young man told Ye Qiu, waving his hand dismissively.

Ye Qiu snorted coldly and responded indifferently, "What if I don’t leave?"

"You won’t leave?" The blond young man was somewhat surprised by Ye Qiu’s courage to challenge him, and suddenly burst into laughter, with the young men by his side joining in.

"If you don’t leave, I’ll beat you until you wish you could," the blond young man waved his hand, and the young men around him surrounded Ye Qiu.

Not wanting Shangguan Hong to get hurt, Ye Qiu pushed her back, and just then, a beer bottle came smashing towards them. Ye Qiu swiftly turned around and threw a punch, shattering the bottle.

"Huh, not bad, go on, beat him hard," the blond young man yelled as he saw Ye Qiu block it, encouraging his fellows to continue the assault.

"Beat him to a pulp. Anything goes wrong, I’ve got it covered," the blond young man cheered everyone on.

Ye Qiu didn’t want to entangle with them any longer and directly charged forward; his fists were like bullets, pounding onto the young men attacking him, and any hit sent them flying.

Ye Qiu swept through them like autumn winds sweeping away fallen leaves, instantly terrifying the blond young man by how fierce he was.

But still, the blond young man didn’t want to lose face and fiercely said, "You wait for me, don’t go anywhere. I’ll be back to settle this score!"

The blond young man dared not attack Ye Qiu, not wanting to end up like his fellows who couldn’t get up just seconds before.

After his threatening remark, the blond young man ran off.

The other customers seemed used to such brawls; aside from stepping back a bit, they didn’t pay much attention; but they were surprised to see the blond young man faltered today.

Ye Qiu didn’t take the blond young man’s threat seriously and stayed in the bar for about another half an hour until Shangguan Hong completely passed out on the table. Then, Ye Qiu carried her on his back and left the bar.

Ye Qiu stopped, not continuing to walk forward.

In front of him stood a man, stepping on someone; Ye Qiu, with sharp eyes, recognized that it was the arrogant blond young man from earlier.

"Remember, some women are not for you to mess with!" The man rubbed his foot left and right on the blond young man’s face, the sole of his shoe intimately contacting his face.

"Please spare me, I won’t dare again!" the blond young man pleaded bitterly. freёweɓnovel.com

The man ignored the blond young man under his foot, instead focusing his gaze on Ye Qiu who had just come out from the bar entrance. He glanced at Ye Qiu’s shoulder, saw Shangguan Hong on his back, and spoke lightly, "Put her down, I’ll take care of her."

At the same time, Ye Qiu also saw the man’s face clearly.

Yin Shaoxiong!

"Please put down my fiancée; she doesn’t need your care," Yin Shaoxiong’s voice reached Ye Qiu’s ears again.
