Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 453: The Impact of Disappearance

”Miss, what can I do for you?” Elder Li hurried over, glancing at Ye Fei. Her age had given her a sense of maturity, and she didnʼt swoon like the younger disciples. Instead, her eyes held a deep respect for Ye Fei.

After handing the bottle to a disciple, she couldnʼt help but check on Ren Cangqiong. She was shocked to find that Ye Feiʼs kick had not only destroyed something vital but also stripped him of his martial arts skills.

Normally, Ren Cangqiong should have been dead, yet he was still clinging to life. This showed how precise Ye Feiʼs control over his strength was. Elder Li realized that the young man she had hired as a bounty hunter was far more formidable than she had imagined. However, she wasnʼt worried about any retaliation from him, knowing well the relationship between him and Shui Ying.

Shui Ying, oblivious to Elder Liʼs thoughts, handed over the unconscious Shui Rou to her, saying, ”Take Xiao Rou to rest. Donʼt worry, her injuries are fine. Sheʼs just exhausted and needs some rest.”

”Yes, Miss!” Elder Li replied, taking Shui Rou from Shui Yingʼs arms and lifting her up. But she didnʼt leave immediately. Instead, she waited for Shui Ying to go first, only to realize that Shui Ying wasnʼt moving. She asked, ”Miss, have you forgotten the location of the palace masterʼs bedroom?”

Shui Ying smiled gently, ”Of course I remember. But weʼre leaving now, so we wonʼt be going there.”

”Leaving?” Elder Li was taken aback and quickly said, ”Miss, are you still angry with Miss Shui Rou? Actually, she...” Since she was in front of Shui Ying, Elder Li reverted to the old title for Shui Rou.

”I know, and Iʼm not angry with her,” Shui Ying interrupted. ”In my heart, she will always be my dear sister.”

”But if thatʼs the case, why are you leaving? Miss Shui Rou will be heartbroken if she wakes up and youʼre not here,” Elder Li argued.

”Tell her when she wakes up that Iʼve just gone to take care of some matters. Iʼll be back soon,” Shui Ying said, her words sincere. She had made the painful decision to leave Ye Fei, driven by moral constraints and her daughtersʼ pull.

But having already regarded Ye Fei as her one and only, how could she live with another man? So she decided to see her three daughters and then return to the Shuiyue Palace, never to leave again.

Hearing this, Elder Li felt relieved and nodded, ”Alright, Miss. Please wait a moment while I arrange a vehicle for you.”

Elder Liʼs words struck Ye Fei as odd, but he soon understood. Although the Shuiyue Palace was a reclusive sect with a traditional atmosphere, it wouldnʼt be foolish enough to ignore the conveniences of the modern, tech-savvy era.

Soon, Ye Fei and Shui Ying were seated in a vehicle sent by the Shuiyue Palace. It was then that Ye Fei realized the palace was only a hundred kilometers from the coast. It was a little past four in the afternoon, and they should arrive before nightfall.

True to its reputation as an all-female sect, even the driver sent to take them was an extremely pretty young woman. But Ye Fei had no interest in admiring her.

When Elder Li had arranged the vehicle, she had also returned the items previously confiscated from him. Checking his phone, he saw numerous missed call and text notifications.

Calculating the time, it had been three days since he was drugged by that incredibly sexy woman. He could only imagine how worried his family must be. He quickly called his mother.

Two days earlier, after storming off in a huff from Ye Fei, Liu Yuner checked into a random hotel but couldnʼt sleep.

The more she thought about it, the sadder she became. She had finally fallen for a man, only to realize he was a flirt. Liu Yuner had never had any patience for such men.

She tried to forget him, but every time she closed her eyes, the man who had first stirred her heart appeared in her mind. She knew she was truly smitten. For a fleeting moment, she even considered ignoring his infidelity and throwing herself into his arms. But in the end, she couldnʼt let go of her pride.

Not knowing what to do, Liu Yuner decided to return to the United States to reflect on her brief first love and figure out her next steps.

Out of courtesy, she called Liu Yiru before boarding her flight, letting her know she was heading back to the U.S. and not to worry. Little did she know, this call would alarm Liu Yiru.

After hanging up with Liu Yuner, Liu Yiru immediately called Ye Fei, wanting to know what had happened between him and Liu Yuner. But all she got was a message that his phone was turned off. This made Liu Yiruʼs heart race with anxiety. She quickly called Liu Yuner back, but her phone was also off, likely because she was on the plane.

As the saying goes, ”A mother worries when her child is far away.” Despite having absolute confidence in Ye Feiʼs abilities, Liu Yiru couldnʼt help but worry when she couldnʼt reach him. She decided she needed to find him first.

When it came to gathering information, no one could beat the Lingyun Society. So, after deciding to find her son, Liu Yiru immediately contacted Zhang Yide.

After learning that Ye Fei had gone to the coast the day before, Zhang Yide promptly reached out to the local contact there, Ye Xuan.

When Ye Xuan received the call from Zhang Yide, she wasnʼt in the best spirits. Like Liu Yuner, she had spent the night awake, but unlike Liu Yuner, her mood was quite pleasant. Every time she thought of that tall figure, a sweet warmth filled her heart.

After storming off with her daughter the day before, Ye Xuan had spent a long time reflecting on her unusual reaction. She finally realized that she had truly fallen for the young gang leader who was half her age but whose strength and charisma were enough to make her admire and even infatuate her.

That was why she had been so angry when she saw him being so close to that stunningly beautiful mixed-race beauty.
