Chapter 137 Names
"I'm sorry, young master, it's me who is too sensitive! forget the details of the past, forget it, as long as you still remember the good memories we once had, I will be content!"
She took the initiative to sit next to Ye Ye and hold his arm, gently snuggled her head on Ye Ye's shoulder, and said to Ye Ye apologetically.
Ye Ye breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, reached out and touched Xiaoyu's head, and comforted her in a gentle voice: "You're just too tired!
Hearing Ye Ye's affectionate care, a strong look of happiness appeared in Xiaoyu's eyes. She looked up at Ye Ye's eyes, and confessed in a firm tone: "From today onwards, my Xiaoyu will be the young master's ghost when he dies, and he will never abandon the young master for the rest of his life!"
After hearing this, Ye Ye flicked his fingers on Xiao Yu's forehead, and pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "What is not dead, you are not allowed to say such things again in the future! And you should not call me young master anymore, you should be called husband! The name Xiao Yu is just the name you called when you were a maid, I should give you a new name!"
"You don't need to rename me again, just use the name I had before I entered the Ye family!"
Xiao Yuwan smiled, her face was still full of warmth and satisfaction, as if she was the happiest woman in the world at this moment. However, when she saw a trace of doubt flashing in Ye Ye's eyes, her expression gradually became dark, and her heart slowly sank into the bottomless abyss.
"You, young master, you should remember my original name, right?"
Xiao Yu's voice trembled, and her body gradually distanced herself from Ye Ye, her eyes full of despair and incredulity.
Her mind recalled the day when Ye Ye thought about it behind closed doors many years ago, and when the two of them opened their hearts for the first time, Xiaoyu had already told Ye Ye her original name.
Since then, the original owner of this body has been deeply imprinted with that name in his heart, and personally promised Xiaoyu that he will never forget it. Even some time before Ye Ye took over this body, he had called that name to Xiaoyu, and he didn't expect that he would die soon.
Although Ye Ye has absorbed most of the memories of this body, he has not obtained personal privacy information. Therefore, under Xiaoyu's gaze, he didn't know how to answer at all.
The long silence made the originally warm space oppressive and dull, and Ye Ye stopped speaking as if giving up resistance, lowering his head and not daring to look at Xiao Yu's eyes again.
Seeing this, Xiao Yu felt even more like the world was spinning, and it seemed that everything was gradually moving away from her. The eyes she looked at Ye Ye changed from familiar to unfamiliar, although there was a hint of hatred, but after all, she couldn't be completely cold.
"I'm tired! I'll talk about it tomorrow!"
In the end, Xiaoyu stood up, as if she had lost her soul, went out to the side room and lay down on the bed.
Ye Ye was still sitting in place, not knowing how to explain to Xiaoyu, and his mind was full of mush. His face kept changing, and he felt both loss and self-blame, but in the end, he sighed helplessly and continued to be silent to the end.
The two stayed awake all night, feeling unprecedented torment and pain. When the sunlight shone into the window the next day, and the voice of the subordinate was heard outside the door, Ye Ye and Xiao Yucai got up and walked out of the door together.
"President, the reward meeting is ready, Lord Xu and they are all waiting outside!"
The subordinate bowed respectfully to Ye Ye and Xiaoyu, and then led them to the main hall where the ceremony was held yesterday, and loudly announced Ye Ye's arrival to Xu Shijie, Zheng Xu and others.
"Bring everything up!"
Ye Ye nodded to his subordinates, and the man immediately took the order, and then came to Ye Ye with a large box with a few other people.
Seeing the big box in front of Ye Ye, Xu Shijie and other masters of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce all had their eyes lit up, and they had already guessed that this was the treasure that Ye Ye intended to reward them. Especially Zheng Xu, Yan Zhi and others, who had been rewarded by Ye Ye, knew that the things given by Ye Ye were by no means ordinary, so the excitement in their hearts was almost indescribable.
In the main hall, in addition to the masters of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce, the guests who attended the marriage ceremony yesterday were also all in place, and they also looked at the big box in front of Ye Ye with a curious expression.
The main purpose of them watching the reward conference this time was to find out what the background of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce was, and whether it was really as rich in treasures as rumored. If the rewards that Ye Ye took out satisfied them with both quantity and quality, these forces would definitely be willing to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce, and even directly designate the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce to provide them with pills and weapons.
But if the rumors are not true, their expectations of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce will be greatly reduced, which is not only not conducive to the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce to open the market in the southwest region, but also affects the attractiveness of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce to the strong people in the southwest. Therefore, both the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce and the guests in the palace attached great importance to this reward conference.
Ye Ye brought Xiaoyu to attend together, and there was no disharmony in the eyes of outsiders. Xiaoyu focused on the overall situation, perfectly concealed the mood fluctuations in her heart, and cooperated with Ye Ye to host this grand event, which made everyone think that they were happy and lived a harmonious life. But only the two themselves know that the relationship between husband and wife, which they only formally established yesterday, actually existed in name only at night.
Ye Ye didn't want to be swayed by his feelings, so after taking a deep breath and adjusting his mentality, he officially began to give a passionate speech to all the masters of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce. He recalled the heroic performance of the others in fighting back against the Murong family, and once again emphasized the determination of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce that would never succumb to any force.
Just when everyone in the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce applauded Ye Ye's speech, and even the guests in the main hall were deeply infected, Lin Xiuyan and others, who stayed at an inn in Lingcheng yesterday, finally received a news that made them excited.
"Is what you said true?
After Lin Xiuyan heard the news, a light suddenly erupted in his eyes, and he asked the spies who came to report excitedly.
"Back to the palace master, this news is true, the good days of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce have come to an end!"
The spy who reported to Lin Xiuyan was extremely firm, and a hideous smile appeared on his face, as if he had been looking forward to this result for a long time.
"Hahahaha, okay, great! Today is Ye Ye's death, I want to see if those people in the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce can still laugh!"
After receiving the spies' affirmative reply, Lin Xiuyan finally showed a hearty smile on his face. If it weren't for the jealousy of Ye Ye's arrangement, I'm afraid he would have rushed to the venue of the reward conference to watch by now, intending to see the scene of Ye Ye being killed by Mu Long with his own eyes.
And the people of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce were still ignorant of Mu Long's arrival at this time, and even the members of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce who were in charge of patrolling and guarding were attracted by the Reward Conference, and they did not notice the crisis that was slowly approaching.
After Ye Ye gave a speech to motivate his subordinates, he finally got to the point. I saw him walk step by step in front of the big box, and after signaling his subordinates to open the box, he reached out and took out a silver long sword from the box!
"This sword is called the Heavenly Sword, it is the top attack weapon of the Martial Sect realm, and it can greatly increase the attack power of the strong of the Martial Sect! Xu Shijie has made outstanding contributions in the battle against the Murong family, and this Heavenly Sword is his reward! Xu Shijie, step forward to receive the reward!"
After Ye Ye gave a brief introduction to the Heavenly Sword, he rewarded the Heavenly Sword to Xu Shijie, who had the most credit among the members of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce. When everyone heard this, they all looked at Xu Shijie with envy, as if they were eager to accept the reward on his behalf and put the Heavenly Sword in their pockets.
"Thank you, President! Xu Shijie will definitely dedicate everything I have to the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce, and never disappoint the president's expectations of me!"
Xu Shijie stepped forward excitedly, and while taking the Tianfang Sword with both hands, he shouted solemnly at Ye Ye.
Everyone applauded at the same time, and most of them were sincerely happy for Xu Shijie. The guests who watched this reward conference saw that Ye Ye was the top divine soldier in the Martial Sect realm as soon as he made a move, and they were all so surprised that they couldn't keep their mouths shut, and then they looked forward to the next reward even more.
Ye Ye nodded at Xu Shijie, motioned him to retreat, and continued to take out a treasure armor from the box: "This treasure armor is called the Rhino Wind Treasure Armor, and it is also unavoidable for the strong people in the realm of Martial Sect, today I will reward it to Dugu Yan to commend him for his contribution to protecting the Mausoleum City!"
Dugu Yan stepped forward in the envious eyes of everyone, and after bowing respectfully to Ye Ye, he suddenly said: "Thank you for the love, but Dugu Yan is only doing what is within his bounds, and he really can't afford to be rewarded by the president, and he asks the president to take back his life!"
His eyes were sincere, and his tone was extremely firm, obviously he really felt that he was not worthy of Ye Ye's reward. Seeing this, the other members of the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce all looked at the Rhino Wind Treasure Armor with extremely hot eyes, and they all wondered if it would fall on their heads.
However, Ye Ye smiled, stuffed the Rhino Wind Treasure Armor directly into Dugu Yan's hand, and said in a solemn tone: "If everyone in the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce can do their best to do their part like you, why don't the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce worry!
Because Dugu Yan broke into the name of the Sword Sect before joining the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce, his attack power has always been good, and Ye Ye rewarded him with the Rhino Wind Armor to make up for his shortcomings in defense. Therefore, Dugu Yan was actually very eager for the Rhino Wind Armor in his heart, and he just thought that his credit was not enough, so he politely refused. Now that Ye Ye forcibly stuffed the Rhino Wind Treasure Armor into his hand, Dugu Yan was a little ignorant if he didn't accept it.
"Thank you for the great grace of the president! Dugu Yan is really fortunate to be able to join the Jade Leaf Chamber of Commerce! In the future, I will definitely live up to the trust of the president and continue to do my best for the Chamber of Commerce!"
After Dugu Yan accepted the treasure armor, he bowed respectfully to Ye Ye and expressed his gratitude in a solemn tone. The crowd applauded again, and the atmosphere of the award ceremony became even more enthusiastic.
