Chapter 215: Chapter 215: Protecting the Villain’s Child
Yue Yue sharply sucked in a breath. Her heart trembled violently.
If anything happened to this child... Xing Luoye would suffer such a terrible fate?
Almost instinctively, her hand moved toward her stomach. Her palm rested gently there.
A complicated emotion filled her eyes.
"No..." she whispered in her heart. No matter what, she would never allow anything to happen to this child.
Whether the child belonged to Xing Luoye or not did not matter anymore. She had already accepted him as her husband. Protecting their child was something she would never hesitate to do.
But the questions inside her mind only grew more chaotic.
Right now two things are the most important.
First... what had really happened that night with Xing Luoye?
Second... How had Cang Yuze suddenly appeared here?
Before she could sort out these thoughts, the system mercilessly released another notification.
Ding!
Scanning details of the Fifth Villain...
A transparent panel appeared before Yue Yue’s eyes.
Name: Cang Yuze
Identity: Fifth Villain
Race: Marshall Shark
Status: Crown Prince of the Sea Empire
Rank: SSS+++ Rank
Yue Yue’s eyes widened slightly. Such a terrifying level of power. The final two lines appeared slowly.
Favorability: +85%
Villain Mode: 25%
Yue Yue stood quietly for a moment after the system panel disappeared. Her heart was still beating fast, but slowly she forced herself to calm down.
She took a small breath and then opened the system panel again in her mind.
This time she carefully looked at the details of the fifth villain, Cang Yuze.
When she saw his information clearly, Yue Yue finally let out a long breath of relief.
At least... his stats were normal.
Everything was exactly as she expected from him; they already knew each other beforehand.
After all, she already knew that Cang Yuze’s favorability toward her had always been very high. So it was natural that his villain mode was not too dangerous.
And the system panel confirmed it. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Seeing that, Yue Yue felt the tightness in her chest ease a little.
Then her gaze slowly moved away from the panel and landed on the four men surrounding her.
These four terrifying villains... all standing so close to her.
Aside from Cang Yuze, Han Soi’s favorability was also very high. He had always been protective of her and rarely hid his feelings.
Feng Yanshen’s favorability, on the other hand, was somewhere in the middle. But Yue Yue could clearly see it steadily rising.
Even when she had been kidnapped and brought to Dune City before, his favorability toward her had not dropped much.
However...
His villain mode had increased quite a bit during that time.
Just remembering that made Yue Yue’s scalp feel numb.
Feng Yanshen had nearly destroyed half the city when he thought something had happened to her.
Then there was Xing Luoye.
His favorability had been extremely low in the beginning. Back then, he had looked at her with complete indifference, sometimes even with faint disgust.
But now...
It had slowly risen. It was not extremely high yet, but it was already much better than before.
Seeing all these numbers together made Yue Yue feel slightly reassured.
At least things were not completely hopeless. Her progress was actually doing quite well. She was not standing on the edge of death like she had feared at first.
But the next moment, Yue Yue sighed quietly in her heart.
Life in this world was truly difficult.
Each of these villains was extremely hard to deal with.
They were possessive, cold, and far too dangerous.
Sometimes it felt like they wanted to kill every single person who stood too close to her.
Only Yue Yue knew how hard she worked to keep the fragile balance between them.
Right now, the atmosphere around her looked calm. But she knew the truth.
The moment one of them crossed a line, the others would immediately attack.
In fact, Yue Yue could clearly feel it.
The other three men looked at Cang Yuze with extremely cold eyes. It was almost as if they wanted to kill him at any moment.
Only Yue Yue knew what was barely stopping them.
She could only hope that one day they would finally learn to live peacefully together. All she wanted was for them to stay by her side calmly.
But Yue Yue could only shake her head faintly.
What could she even do?
It was in their nature.
If they were not like this...
They would never have been villains in the first place.
Just as she was thinking about this, the group finally arrived inside the Sea Palace.
The grand corridors were quiet and filled with soft blue light from the ocean outside.
At the very front, Cang Yuzain suddenly stopped walking.
He turned around and looked at everyone behind him. Then he spoke quickly.
"Brother, you can show them Lady Yue Yue’s room."
He paused before scratching the back of his head slightly.
"My female must be worrying about me. I haven’t seen her for many days."
After saying that, he leaned slightly toward his brother and muttered under his breath,
"I’ve already delivered her to you. Now you must seize the chance... before Father decides to kick your ass."
Cang Yuze’s lips twitched when he heard those words.
Did this foolish younger brother really think everyone here was blind? His acting was so obvious that anyone could see his hidden motive.
But Cang Yuze simply sighed and said nothing. He just waved his hand dismissively.
The younger prince did not wait even a second. He immediately ran away from the palace.
Cang Yuze shook his head helplessly before turning his attention back to the others.
Soon they arrived at the corridor where Yue Yue’s room was located.
The moment the door to her room appeared in front of them, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
Without a single word being spoken, the men moved almost at the same time.
One by one... freeωebnovēl.c૦m
They chose the rooms beside hers.
Han Soi calmly took the room on the left.
Feng Yanshen silently occupied the room on the right.
Xing Luoye took the next closest one.
Within seconds, all the nearest rooms had been claimed. Not a single empty room remained near Yue Yue.
Seeing this silent competition, Cang Yuze almost laughed.
But his own residence was in another wing of the palace.
If he had known earlier that the woman his imperial father brought here was actually his own female, whom he had been searching for so desperately, he would have rushed here immediately and taken her away.
But now...
It was already too late. He could not even move his residence closer to her.
Their living quarters were in completely different areas of the palace.
Cang Yuze suddenly felt a faint sense of regret.
Perhaps... He had missed his best chance. But that’s not a problem; he could just live inside her room.
