Chapter 52 An Ambiguous Checking
The man’s body is huge and every muscle within his body had experience and training from war grounds . Maintaining the explosiveness of muscle and combined with the ccoldness emitted from his body, it made Song Ye feel that what was on top of her was a rock, an indestructible and immobile rock .
“What are you doing, let go!”
No matter how cold and how much she didn’t bother with things, she will not feel nothing when she’s being bullied . She tried to pull her wrist out, anger covered her face .
Qin Zhan lowered his eyes and coincidentally looked into Song Ye’s black and clear eyes . It was very clear and childlike, to the point even anger did not ruin any beauty on her face . He single-handedly grip onto her wrists and used one of his legs to lock her body down . It will not cause her any pain, and at the same time, she wouldn’t be able to escape as well . The professionalism in his movement had made Song ye feel humiliated as if she was a bird locked in a cage .
But her anger was not answered by the other party . The man’s gaze then fell onto her face, speaking in a slow and clear tone:
“Every angle you took are very good and there are no mistakes as well . If this is not because of talent, then it must be trained out . ”
Following this suspecting tone, during the time Song Ye was shocked at how observant Qin Zhan can be, the man’s slightly rough fingers had already traced along her palm and search every angle of her fingers . That slightly itchy and rough touch made her felt uncomfortable . If she did not know any better, Song Ye would have really thought that she was being teased .
But a man such as Qin Zhan might be a thousand year iron tree and it will never ever blossom[1] .
She had felt confidence in her face since her past life . No matter how she disguised, she was still able to escape any situations with her face . To be able to maintain their senses from the first eye and to observe any sort of mistake is only accomplished by this rock .
After checking her out properly, Qin Zhan found nothing wrong . The skin under his fingers were very smooth and the joints were thin, which mean that she possibly had not touched any sort of weapons that much .
“Mister, are you done checking?”
Seeing the suspect within his eyes washing down, Song Ye opened her mouth coldly and pushed him away . She then sat up and smoothed her clothes out .
“My apologies . ”
Qin Zhan stepped back and apologized politely, but the oddness that he felt in his heart had yet to subside .
Song Ye humph coldly and just sat there, not answering him . But in actuality, storms were brewing up within her heart . Within the short ten minutes of interaction with this man, Song Ye fully understood how capable this man can be . No matter his combat ability or observation skills, it is all top notch . Even for the her in her peak also need to deal with Qin Zhan carefully .
As for the her now, she found that it will be better for her to stay in front of him rather than walking away and let him feel suspicious towards her .
The air around them became stiff after this incident . Song Ye somehow was able to hear some sound approaching them . Following the sound of footsteps, the sound of women laughing and they’re chattering can be heard clearly .
“Mmn? Cousin Qian Qian[2], why dont you go and have a dance? Didn’t you want to show yourself off to Qin Shao?”
Song Ye found the voice of a young woman to be familiar, but the Qin Shao that came out of that person’s mouth that came out later had made her blanked out .

“I have already danced a few rounds and he did not appear even after I danced until my legs feel sore . If not because of Qu Shao introducing him, I won’t even bother him . He looked so cold and not gentle at all . ”
Another young woman’s voice sounded soft and gentle, complaints can be heard from her tone .
Towards her comment, Song Ye expressed her understanding . Which woman will be able to stand facing a rock . The consequence of that will either be them feeling bored to death or they become a pervert from that .
“Eh, you can’t say so . Look at how handsome he is, not to mention he was brought here by Qu Shao purposefully . It might be possible that he is also from the capital . That place is filled with golds, so if you are to marry him, you will for sure be either wealthy or noble . For sure it will be better than being stuck in a palce as small as Shi City . ”
Listening until this point, Song Ye frowned . She feel no favourability towards women that wanted to rise their ranks through such means .
Hearing that the two women coming nearer and nearer, Song Ye can’t help but sweep her gaze over to her opposite . Seeing that the male lead within their gossips had not felt any awkwardness, she then grabbed hold of a cup of wine and sat there .
Clack, clack, clack .
The sound of high heels approached . When the women with pale yellow short gown and purple gown entered, the air had obviously turned cold .
“Ah, Qin Shao!”
The girl in purple gown named Qian Qian covered her small lips and exclaimed . After that her eyes shimmered and can’t help but feel guilty,
“I did not think that Qin Shao is here all along . ”

The face of the other girl standing beside her had also gone pale and lowered her head to greet,
“Hello, Qin Shao . ”
Her heart was jumping quickly . She did not even know if Qin Zhan ahd heard what they talked about or not . She slowly raised her head to sneak a peek and instantly had her soul taken away by the man sitting on top of the black leather sofa .
Qin Zhan was not the beautiful and pretty type of appearance . As he had become a soldier for many years, no matter it’s his sitting posture or aura, it felt rigid and was able to bring sense of security for the women . Along with a handsome and tough face, he will for sure be regarded as the manly type in magazines .
Song Ye looked at the girl in pale yellow short gown and raised her eyeborws . The world really is small, to be able to meet her enemies even in such a place .
“Wang Han, why don’t we leave here . ”
Qian Qian felt awkward and tugged at Wang Han’s hand, wanting to leave .
But the latter had her eyes stuck onto Qin Zhan and pulled onto Qian Qian hand and advised,
“Cousin, where are you going? Now is a good chance, you need to grab onto it . ”
After finishing her sentence, Wang Han tugged Qian Qian over and sat on the sofa in the middle . On their right is Qin Zhan and Song Ye on their left .
The two fo them looked at Qin Zhan . Looking at how he looked like normal with no unpleasantness on his face and kept on sipping off his wine glass, they felt relived, thinking that he had not heard them speaking . The air had turned quiet again and naturally, they noticed how odd the space had become .

Wang Han had in fact noticed the young girl in black gown the moment she entered, but she did not recognize that it was her enemy and was sneakily observing the relationship that she had with Qin Zhan .
After looking for a long time and seeing Qin Zhan not minding Song Ye, she then concluded that the girl msut be also someone that wanted to rise in rank and at the same time was her competitor as well . When she thought this in her heart, she immediately held onto Qian Qian’s hand intimately and said:
“Cousin, look, there are so many people attending today, and girls are even more, for sure all of them are here for those rich young masters . The girls nowadays really can’t be judged from their looks . ”
Her words were really meaningful, as she was obviosuly plucking herself off from the women that attended this banquet .
Song Ye recalled about the words she said earlier outside the space and can’t help but glanced over . She would like to see if this woman’s brain has grown completely .
And the glance she threw over had made Wang Han thought that she was angry and held onto the chance to attack her more,
“Hehe, please don’t mind me, miss . I’m talking about those woman with hidden agenda . With you looking at me with such an angry gaze, it will make others think that you’re also included in that category . ”
Akiha: Ahaha, my goodness WH I feel sorry for your brain… . .
Yalin: male lead getting his moments in, lol .
