Chapter 1133: Chapter 817: Shameless Scoundrel! (Part 1)

Liu Ye’s fingers fell to his chest, feeling his heartbeat racing fast and hard—hot and powerful—that was joyful, sweet love, but the feeling wasn’t his. It belonged to Shen Tang.

She loved Jia Lan so much, treasured him like a precious gem; after such a long separation, of course she was overjoyed to be reunited.

Yet there seemed to be a faint stuffy mood mixed in. And who did that belong to...

Jia Lan was even more ecstatic, so excited he practically wanted to bury his face in the little kitty and sniff and kiss her all over, but with such an annoying third wheel here, he could only force himself to rein it in.

Not to mention Shen Tang was in her original body, and not wearing anything!

Wait... Tangtang came here with him, does that mean he saw everything?!

Jia Lan’s expression turned instantly cold. The look he shot at Liu Ye was so vicious it was like he wanted to skin him alive and rip out his tendons. Even his voice carried an undisguisable killing intent. "This has nothing to do with you. Get lost already!"

Liu Ye met his gaze head-on, and it was as if sparks crackled in the air between their eyes.

He tugged at the corner of his mouth, upper body leaning back slightly as he slanted against the wall, a hint of provocation in his smile. "I brought this little treasure back to you. You don’t like it? So quick to burn the bridge after you cross it? That’s pretty ungrateful of you. I’m still her..."

Jia Lan grabbed something at hand and hurled it at him. "Get out!"

Liu Ye dodged easily. The teacup smashed against the wall and shattered all over the floor.

He shrugged and turned toward the door. "Fine, then I’ll go. I won’t disturb your heartfelt reunion."

Shen Tang hurriedly said, "Wait a sec!"

Liu Ye’s steps halted, and he turned back to look at her.

Shen Tang said, "Undo the chains on Ah Lan."

Liu Ye let out a soft, derisive breath. "I thought you had something you actually wanted to say to me."

He walked back and unfastened the chains, his tone lazy and cool. "You want to take him away. Even if I don’t stop you, you still have to see whether you can make it past the Divine Hall."

"I’ll naturally find a way to leave here. You don’t need to worry about it."

"Alright then, I’m leaving. You two can catch up properly."

Liu Ye waved his hand and turned to leave, his figure disappearing completely beyond the door.

Jia Lan looked at the opened shackles and chains, then glanced in the direction Liu Ye had gone, and finally turned his head toward the little kitty in his arms who was bristling with murderous intent. He was thoroughly shocked. "Tangtang, what exactly happened between you and Liu Ye? Why does he listen to you like that?"

Jia Lan knew his other personality all too well. That guy was basically a complete scoundrel. Even he couldn’t do anything about him. How could he be this obedient to her?

Shen Tang scratched her nose, speaking a little awkwardly. "Uh... that’s kind of a long story! I used a System item on him, and things are a bit complicated. It’s hard to explain. Anyway, right now Liu Ye doesn’t dare lay a finger on me!"

Hearing that, Jia Lan more or less understood. "Alright, then let’s not talk about it for now. The walls have ears—keep the secret hidden."

Shen Tang nodded, then lifted her head to look at the cool, handsome young man before her, a little thinner than before.

She cupped his face with her two little claws, saying with heartache, "You should talk about what’s going on with you first. You and Liu Ye actually got separated—how did he end up locking you up here? Has he hurt you?"

Shen Tang remembered very clearly how Liu Ye had racked his brains back then trying to seize control of the body, even plotting several times to kill Jia Lan.

Jia Lan stretched out a slender, bony finger and gently tapped the tip of her nose, smiling. "Don’t worry, I’m fine. He doesn’t dare touch me either."

"What exactly is going on?"

"The Divine Hall did use some kind of Secret Technique to split our consciousness and the body. But his soul and mine used to be one, so there’s a bond between us that cannot be severed. If one side dies, the other will suffer irreversible damage as well."

"Because of this, Liu Ye and I may detest each other, but we can never completely get rid of one another."

"He has to keep me close and ensure my safety, so he imprisoned me here."
