The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1957: Breaking Up

"Let’s go inside." Ye Shikai held Ji Qian’s hand and slowly walked into the sub-base. Although it hadn’t been used for a while, it wasn’t too dirty, and there weren’t many people living nearby, so it was relatively quiet.

Half an hour later.

"They’re here," Ji Qian said to the surveillance screen. Many black cars had suddenly appeared on the outskirts of the sub-base, from which nearly a hundred people descended, all of them guards of the Chen family, immediately surrounding the entire sub-base.

Ye Shikai had anticipated this, but he hadn’t expected Chen Yuxin to come with such a large entourage.

"Kai." Chen Yuxin briskly walked in and, upon seeing Ji Qian there as well, immediately showed a serious expression on her face.

"Xin, I need you to give me an explanation." Without mincing words, Ye Shikai asked, "What exactly is going on here?"

"Kai, first tell me, do you have those worms with you?" Chen Yuxin asked in return.

"What if I do?" Ye Shikai replied coldly.

"Give them back to me first, and I’ll explain everything afterward." Chen Yuxin insisted on getting the worms first.

"I already burned them all," Ye Shikai said coldly.

"Impossible. Kai, stop fooling around and give them back to me, okay?" Chen Yuxin urged, though her tone remained fairly calm. Her urgency in wanting the worms back showed how important they were to the Chen family, but at the same time, Ye Shikai also clearly understood how deadly these ’important’ worms were and felt they needed to be destroyed.

"Why are you cultivating so many worms? Answer me." Ye Shikai’s tone suddenly heightened, a demanding inquiry. If it wasn’t premeditated, why cultivate so many deadly worms?

"Tell me the truth."

"Kai, give me the worms first, and I’ll explain everything later." Chen Yuxin’s sweet demeanor returned, but Ye Shikai could sense her killing intent. This was the Chen Yuxin he recognized.

"Worms can kill undetectably and are impossible to guard against, even for cultivators. The only explanation for cultivating so many deadly worms is that you plan to take action against the martial families, right?" Ji Qian suddenly asked. Ye Shikai was really worried the two women would start a fight. The two had always been hostile to each other, and with Ji Qian’s ’provocation,’ he was really worried Chen Yuxin might make a move.

"Miss Ji, this is between him and me; it seems unrelated to you, doesn’t it?" Chen Yuxin replied coldly.

"Is that so? Cultivating worms counts as a family affair between you two? Miss Chen, are you going to keep playing this game?" Ji Qian continued.

"Shut up and make a move." On Chen Yuxin’s command, Xue Ming and Feng Ling charged forward, targeting Ji Qian behind Ye Shikai.

"Stop, all of you." Ye Shikai brandished the You Xi Sword, effortlessly repelling the two women’s attacks, shielding Ji Qian behind him.

"Kai, what are you doing?" Chen Yuxin stood up, "Let go of that woman."

"Chen Yuxin, you’ve gone too far," Ye Shikai said coldly as the Chen family closed in.

"Kai, I’m giving you one more chance to hand everything over, or don’t blame me for what happens next." Indeed, Chen Yuxin had finally torn off the facade. She had gone mad...

"Alright, let’s see if you’re capable." Ye Shikai turned to look at Ji Qian behind him.

"Are you ready? She really will make a move, Chen’s people are everywhere," Ye Shikai said softly.

"I’ve been ready for a long time. If I hadn’t provoked her, how would we have the chance to escape?"

"There’s an escape route behind us. Run there."

"Make a move."

..................

"Qian, you go in first." Ye Shikai, holding the You Xi Sword, shielded Ji Qian behind him. This was their base between them, so Ye Shikai knew it inside out. When it was built, an escape route was left, something Chen Yuxin likely didn’t know about.

"Catch them."

"Yes."

"Yes."

Xue Ming and Feng Ling were both cultivators, and Ji Qian was definitely no match for them. Ye Shikai was worried she might get hurt, so he kept her behind him. Ye Shikai fought against the two, and the remaining Chen family guards charged in. Ye Shikai and Ji Qian slipped into a room, which was too cramped for the Chen family to launch a full-scale attack.

"Let’s go." Ji Qian opened the secret passage, and the two jumped in immediately. Inside there was a motorcycle, ready for use in the narrow passage.

"Get on the bike," Ye Shikai said as he mounted the motorcycle, with Ji Qian sitting behind him.

"Hold onto my waist," Ye Shikai instructed, starting the motorcycle, and they sped off in a flash...

The other end of the escape tunnel was an underground parking lot. Ye Shikai and Ji Qian successfully left the base, eluding the Chen family’s pursuit.

"That was really close just now," Ye Shikai sighed. After all, he was Chen Yuxin’s husband, and Feng Ling and Xue Ming wouldn’t hurt him, but they were fatal toward Ji Qian.

"Qian, hurry back to the Ji Family; there’s protection at home, and Chen Yuxin can’t touch you," Ye Shikai urged, today’s events showing how much Chen Yuxin wanted Ji Qian dead.

"Alright, I’ll stay with you anyway," Ji Qian said casually.

"But... it’s too dangerous."

"No, it’s not. Look," Ji Qian pointed behind, and Ye Shikai then saw several cars surrounding them.

"Watch out."

"Don’t worry, they’re my Ji Family’s people," Ji Qian said casually. At this moment, many from the White Mist Army got out of the cars, gathering around Ji Qian.

"Miss, are you alright?" The leader was Chen Ligong.

"When did you call for backup?" Ye Shikai asked.

"Since Chen Yuxin dared to make a move, of course, I took precautions. The White Mist Army is my Ji Family’s elite, responsible for guarding the direct lineage of the Ji Family. Naturally, they would come." Ji Qian explained.

"It really scared me," Ye Shikai sighed, "Since the White Mist Army is here, you’d better go back with them."

"No." Ji Qian refused decisively, "I brought them to deal with Chen Yuxin together with you."

"Mr. Ye, Miss, this isn’t the place for a conversation. We should find a safe place to talk," Chen Ligong suggested.

"Alright, let’s leave here first," Ye Shikai got into the Ji Family’s car, lost in thought, pondering if this meant he had completely broken with Chen Yuxin. However, he still didn’t understand Chen Yuxin’s motives. Now that he left with the worms, what would Chen Yuxin do next?

"According to Miss’s instructions, I’ve already found a safe house."
