X-ray Eyes Little Wild Doctor-Chapter 221 - 216: It’s not me who’s courting death, it’s you

Chapter 221: Chapter 216: It’s not me who’s courting death, it’s you

Jin Guan City!

The McLaren slowly entered the villa area of Jin Guan City, its luxurious body shimmering under the round moon, extremely dazzling.

Driving through the winding neighborhood roads and passing by villas nestled among green trees and red flowers, Ye Tian parked the car squarely in the garage.

Carrying two big bags of gourmet food, Ye Tian entered his villa as the garage’s anti-theft door descended slowly and he closed the front door with his foot.

"Wifey, don’t work overtime tonight, let’s have a good meal," said Ye Tian as soon as he walked in the door.

It was already ten o’clock at night, and Yun Xinyan had just responded to an urgent email from her company. She was currently taking a shower in the bathroom, getting ready to go to bed for a good night’s sleep after these few tiring days.

"No need, it’s already late, let’s go to sleep," Yun Xinyan said.

Ye Tian, who was usually very affectionate towards his wife, insisted today, "Just this one time, let’s have a nice meal. I’ll do the cooking, just this once."

Caught off guard by his insistence, Xinyan paused mid-shower. Knowing Ye Tian well, she sensed something off in his words. Tonight was unusual; he hadn’t sneakily entered the bathroom to playfully touch her, which was indeed out of character.

Without another word, Xinyan turned off the shower, dried the water droplets between her legs with a towel, applied some night cream in a simple routine, and wrapped in a white bath towel, she stepped out of the bathroom.

Stepping out of the bathroom, Xinyan heard the sound of chopping from the kitchen. As she leaned against the kitchen doorway, she saw Ye Tian wearing an apron and oven mitts, bustling about the kitchen with evident pleasure.

Somehow, Xinyan felt that there was something unusual about Ye Tian tonight; he had never been like this before.

"Are you okay?" Xinyan approached and touched Ye Tian’s forehead. "You don’t have a fever, what’s the matter?"

Without his usual jokes or playful advances, Ye Tian simply smiled softly and said, "Tonight, you don’t have to do anything. You just need to eat. I’ll prepare the meal. Go watch TV; it’ll be ready soon."

Xinyan felt more uneasy. freewebnøvel.coɱ

Ye Tian turned on the faucet to wash the vegetables with clear water, placed them on the cutting board, and skillfully sliced them, filling the kitchen with the fresh scent of greens.

The rice was already washed and in the rice cooker. Pressing the cook button, Ye Tian smiled and said, "The rice is freshly bought, authentic Northeast rice. They say the taste is excellent. Let’s try it together in a bit."

His words were ordinary, yet, to Xinyan’s ears, they were laden with deep affection.

Turning on the exhaust fan, Ye Tian reminded Xinyan to be careful of the cooking fumes, saying that they were bad for the skin and that they would ruin her beauty.

Standing outside the kitchen, Xinyan watched him through the glass door, smelling the delicious aromas, and felt that nothing could be more heartwarming than this moment. Life was simple and plain, yet filled with warmth and affection.

"If I’m not here one day, remember to eat on time. I stopped by the job market on my way back, and the nannies’ rates have gone up. The most expensive ones cost over ten thousand a month. If I’m not here, hire a nanny to take good care of you," Ye Tian said while cooking, unaware that Xinyan’s eyes had moistened behind him.

The dishes he prepared were simple, devoid of luxurious delicacies like abalone or bird’s nest, just the most common home-cooked meals.

A dish of tomato and egg stir-fry, a dish of cucumber and egg stir-fry, a dish of minced pork with cabbage, a full pot of carp soup, and two bowls of translucent white rice.

"Come eat, stop staring," Ye Tian said with a smile.

Xinyan sat at the dining table, her bowl filled with fragrant Northeast rice whose glistening grains resembled precious jade, exuding an aromatic luster in the blue-and-white porcelain bowl.

"The Northeast rice really is delicious. Try this, my dear, and this one too. These vegetables are all freshly bought, we can’t waste them," Ye Tian urged, continuously serving Xinyan, although he ate very little himself, content just watching her enjoy the meal.

Xinyan quietly savored the sumptuous dinner lovingly prepared by her cherished one.

They did not speak much to each other, sometimes exchanging smiles; their silent communication said it all.

During the meal, they seemed to transform into an ordinary couple, without the airs of a domineering billionaire CEO or a powerful overlord—only the cozy domesticity and caring of married life.

Their communication was unique—often a single glance sufficed to convey their mutual understanding—a true example of a deep and serene connection.

The cozy dinner ended swiftly. After tidying up the dishes and chairs, the couple went to bed.

Oddly, that night Ye Tian made no advances, nor was he shameless; he just held Xinyan quietly, gently coaxing her to sleep with his hands behaving impeccably, without any wandering touches.

Exhausted from the day’s toil, Xinyan fell into a deep sleep with a slight smile on her lips.

In the dimly lit bedroom, with the round moon hanging high outside the window, Ye Tian’s eyes were lightly closed, his breathing even. He held her tightly in his arms, and as the wall clock ticked away, time slipped by, and the couple slept soundly, without a single turn or toss.

Time passes quickly during moments of happiness. Soon, the clock’s hour and minute hands converged upon the midnight mark, signaling that yesterday had passed, and a new day had begun.

Ye Tian suddenly opened his eyes, gently kissed Yun Xinyan’s face, his gaze filled with reluctance. Yet he quietly got out of bed, put on his neat sports outfit, and tied his sneakers’ laces.

He went to the living room, took a black pen from the pen holder, and after pondering for a moment over a piece of white paper, wrote down a line of simple handwriting; Ye Tian felt somewhat relieved.

In a flash, his figure disappeared from the living room and reappeared in the basement.

In a concealed spot, he retrieved the rosewood box. Ye Tian took a deep breath, his expression turning solemn, and slowly opened the box.

Catching a glimpse of the item inside the box, waves of past events flooded his mind, those dark memories of blood and fire as if dragging Ye Tian back to that stormy Dark World.

"After tonight, everything will have a result, good or bad, I’m afraid only heaven knows," Ye Tian sighed.

He placed the note he had just written into the rosewood box, carried the box back to the villa’s living room, and placed it under the coffee table. Then, he took out his phone and sent Yun Xinyan a scheduled email.

Having done all this, Ye Tian returned to the bedroom where the lights were still dim; only the moonlight streaming in. Under the moon, Yun Xinyan was very beautiful, like a sleeping fairy, too captivating to leave.

In the end, Ye Tian resolutely vanished on the spot.

Jin Guan City is situated by the Wu River, with charming scenery and expensive housing prices. The river takes a turn here, and the silt carried by the water has deposited over the years, forming a river island.

In this era of grand development, no opportunity to make money is overlooked, and developers had long since established a villa district on the river island, all in European and American architectural styles, even more expensive than Jin Guan City. Those residing here are either wealthy or noble.

It was already the wee hours of the morning, and the lights of the villa district on the river island were bright, but all was silent.

The king of hell in a black robe stepped out of the dim room and stood on the second-floor balcony, gazing at the rolling Wu River, accompanied by the cool breeze and the bright moon, his heart filled with joy.

"Just a few more hours, and he’ll be dead for sure." The king of hell’s lips curled into an evil smile, looking exceptionally sinister and terrifying in the moonlight.

His right palm opened, and a blood-red crystal floated above it, slowly rotating, reflecting the bright moon in the night sky with radiant, dazzling light, stunningly beautiful.

However, this crystal had turned blood red, and compared with the pure and flawless bright moon, the entire crystal seemed particularly malevolent and eerie.

Red crystal! Demonic! Fierce!

The king of hell laughed malevolently: "Let time pass quickly, let that moment come sooner. I really can’t wait. King of the Night, your time of death is approaching, hahaha."

Just then, a cold laugh suddenly came from behind the king of hell.

"Old hell ghost, you’re laughing a bit too soon, aren’t you? Not afraid of extreme joy begets sorrow?"

Hearing this voice, the king of hell’s whole body shuddered and swiftly turned around, only to see a familiar young man standing on the lawn below the villa.

This young man was handsome and imposing, with eyes bright as the stars in the sky. He was dressed in a sports outfit, with common jeans for his lower half, and his sneakers were neatly laced. His entire being exuded sharpness as if he were an unsheathed sword, shining with a distinctive edge.

Without asking more, this person was Ye Tian.

"The King of the Night! It’s you!" The king of hell frowned: "You actually found this place!"

Tonight, following the information Wang Bingbing provided, Ye Tian had come to the river island, not for anything else, but for the king of hell—to settle their mutual hatred once and for all.

"Old hell ghost, tell me, how do you want to die? I can grant you that," Ye Tian’s presence was overbearing, his words filled with arrogance.

"Don’t be too pleased with yourself!" The king of hell narrowed his eyes and sneered, "In a few hours, the Demonic Blood will fill the Crystal Ball, and that will be the time of your death. "

"So what?" Ye Tian didn’t seem to care at all.

The king of hell’s gaze turned cold, smugly saying: "King of the Night, there’s no one in this world who isn’t afraid of death, and you’re no exception. If you kneel down and beg me, maybe, just maybe, I’ll be happy to spare your life for the time being. What do you think, have you thought it through?"

"You want me to beg you?" Ye Tian scoffed: "In your dreams!"

The king of hell immediately frowned: "You won’t cry until you see the coffin! You’re seeking death!"

"The one seeking death isn’t me, it’s you!" Ye Tian clenched his fists, shouting: "Tonight, I will let you fully understand the consequences of offending me. You, go to hell!"

With that, he stomped heavily on the ground, sending a surge of tremendous force through the lawn, and like a cannonball fired out, Ye Tian shot directly at the king of hell on the second floor of the villa.

In midair, Ye Tian clenched his fists and relentlessly pummeled forward.

"He’s very strong!" The king of hell immediately frowned. He knew it was because of the crystal’s alterations.
