CHAPTER 238

"What?"

Ye Cheng's first calm and serious face suddenly contorted into a frown as his eyes widened in shear surprise. "Li Jing, what do you mean by that?"

She took in a deep breath while closing her eyes as her chest rose and fell, matching her uneven breathing.

"Li Jing, speak to me. What is going on?" N ot waiting for her reply, Ye Cheng stood up as well and went to where she stood. "Come on." His eyes darted to and fro in hers, searching for the real truth behind her words and hoping it was all a joke.

'Please no, not you too, Li Jing. Tell me it is a joke. It is a prank. Anything. I would believe it.' Ye Cheng thought to himself.

"I am sorry, Ye Cheng but this is beyond me."

"What do you mean it is beyond you?" Ye Cheng half yelled. "Li Jing…" No longer was his eyes filled with warmth and calm. All that remained was a look of danger as they reddened.
