At the same time, Ye Yang and Ye Liu followed the officers and soldiers as they scattered all over the capital's many streets and alleys on their non-stop mission in search of Ye Mo.

Time passed by and night fell. Ye Mo slowly stirred awake after having slept for a couple of hours. His mind was not fully conscious yet, but other than that, he was up. ​​

His brows furrowed tightly when he found himself in a gorgeous but strange-looking room.

He remembered that someone had blocked him on the street, and before he could identify the person, he blacked out.

How did that happen? He thought about it as cold sweat overtook him.

If Wang Xiangyun had sent her men to capture him, could he still get away? He might even be killed off!

After all, she definitely would not let him go back alive and tell Dongfang Ming that his ex-fiancee had not only kidnapped him but attempted to rape him as well!

He rolled out of the bed and marched directly towards the door.

He opened it to find a guard standing on either side.

"Oh, you're awake, sir. Hold on, I shall inform my master," one of them said, and then he left to inform Dongfang Ming.

They seemed like guards who had been tasked with supervising him to make sure he would not escape. Ye Mo furrowed his brows and asked the other one, "Tell me, who is your master?"

He was unsure whether the other party was friend or foe, so he chose a friendly approach, albeit a slightly loud one.

"My master is Dongfang," said the guard as he smiled proudly at Ye Mo.

As a servant, he could not speak his master's name in full.

Hearing that, the fear Ye Mo had been hanging onto was finally put to rest.

It seems that Dongfang Ming's men have rescued me from the hands of that wretched woman.

Ye Mo, brows relaxed, returned to the room and waited for Dongfang Ming's arrival.

Soon, the guard knocked on Dongfang Ming's door. It was Ming Yan who opened it, "What is it?"

"Brother Ming, Mr. Ye has awakened," he reported honestly.

Next, Ming Yan instructed him to prepare some food for Ye Mo. He must be hungry after a long nap.

After that, Ming Yan reentered the room and waited for his master's orders.

Dongfang Ming did not need Ming Yan to pass the message. His good hearing had received the news from the guard.

After a while, when his master had yet to respond, Ming Yan uttered inexplicably, "Master, Mr. Ye has been found, shouldn't we inform Madam Ye and the family?"

Logically speaking, they had dispatched their men all over the capital ever since they learned of Ye Mo's disappearance. Now that they found the man, why not tell the family right away?

"Of course." Dongfang Ming put down the book in his hand. He meant to say something, but then he paused.

Then he furrowed his brows, feeling somewhat conflicted.

"You may take your leave. We shall discuss this tomorrow." Dongfang Ming waved, signaling for Ming Yan to leave the room.

Ming Yan looked at his master's frown. Then, bowing his head, he decided to overstep. "Master, you should know what to do, and what not to do. You should look for one with a clean soul who hails from a family that matches yours."

He could tell his master had feelings for Ye Liushi, but he had not spoken on the matter, because he believed his master would act on his own discretion!

Hearing that from Ming Yan, Dongfang Ming's previously warm eyes flared up with rage.
