Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future

61 Avoiding Danger

Although Aloy’s 100% certain, she did not say it out loud. With Lear’s personality, he would probably lose all decorum and attack straightaway if she did.

That it would not be good for Shen Fei.

Lear’s strength was truly extraordinary. It had only been ten years since he became a Beastmaster, and already he had four Count-rank spirit beasts. With Shen Fei’s current ability, he might not be able to withstand it.

Aloy secretly glanced at Shen Fei. ‘I’ll tell him about this after we get out of the car.’

Shen Fei’s face was expressionless as he quietly evaluated Lear. He felt that this man did not look like a decent person. Furthermore, the clothes he wore were similar to what Aloy had just described.

‘Black shoes and yellow clothes...’

Shen Fei looked at Lear warily. Moreover, he had appeared quite suddenly.

The Zhang family’s beast base was located in the suburbs. Who would be so free as to walk to the suburbs in the early hours of the morning for no reason?

He was most likely the one who had attacked them. No, it should be said that he attacked Shen Fei.

‘But why?’ Shen Fei crossed his arms dubiously.

Although he did not have much of a relationship with the Gelin family, there should be no grudges.

‘Did Lord Gelin really have to send someone to kill me?’ Shen Fei lowered his head, puzzled.

“Aly, why aren’t you smiling when you see me this time? How about you give me a smile?”

Aloy kept staring straight ahead coldly. “I never liked smiling.”

“That’s not true, Aly. I remember it as though it was yesterday. You loved to smile when you were little...”

“Mr. Guo!”

“Yes, Young Mistress?”

“Please stop by the Shen residence for a while today, I plan to sleep there tonight.”

Hearing this, Lear’s face instantly darkened.

‘As expected, she already has that relationship with Shen Fei?’

“Alright, Young Mistress!”

“Aly, listen to me.” Lear’s face was dark, but he tried hard to maintain the smile on his face. “You’ll attract gossip if you keep sleeping with your fiancé.”

“...Mr. Guo, drive faster. I’m sleepy.” Aloy did not bother with Lear and just leaned on Shen Fei tiredly.

Lear’s body stiffened. He looked at Shen Fei with killing intent.

Shen Fei frowned.

‘Did I... just gain another enemy because of Aloy?’ He was already used to such inexplicable killing intent. ‘...Looks like that’s the case.’

After all, Aloy was so beautiful, that any man who saw her would be tempted.

And seeing Aloy’s reaction, she probably also found this person very annoying.

“We’ve arrived.”

The car slowly stopped in front of the Shen family residence. Shen Fei then helped Aloy out of the car.

Aloy looked coldly at the limo as it drove away and let out a long sigh. It seemed that she could not go back home for a while. Wherever this uncle was, Aloy really did not want to be present.

Although the environment of Shen Fei’s home was not as nice as the mayor’s mansion, it was still passable.

Aloy rubbed her hands, which had turned red from the cold. “Let’s go inside and walk around.”

“Wait.” Shen Fei extended his hand and placed it on Aloy’s shoulder. His eyes flashed with a trace of worry.

Things were not that simple tonight. That person in the car just now seemed like he would be difficult to deal with. He might take advantage to launch a sneak attack while they slept.

“Just to be safe, let’s stay outside tonight.”

“How about that high-end hotel over there?”

“Alright,” he said.

‘Yes!’ Aloy nodded and said, “I’ll pay for the hotel tonight.”

“Sure.”

The two of them walked to the nearby hotel.

...

“Where are they? Where did he go?”

Not long after Shen Fei and Aloy left, Lear found an excuse to slip out of the mayor’s residence and secretly infiltrated the Shen residence.

He had wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to kill Shen Fei.

“Tsk!” Lear was very unhappy. He had expected them to be here!

Ding! Ding!

The phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Lear answered the call moodily. “Who is it?”

“It’s me, Zhang Youcheng,”

On the other end of the phone, Zhang Youcheng’s face was black as he watched the surveillance video.

Originally, he was only checking to see if anything valuable had gone missing in the institution after he fainted. However, after a round of inspection, he was surprised to find a trespasser—Lear.

Not only did he destroy a breeding cage worth 10,000,000 Yuan, he also almost hurt Aloy!

Although Zhang Youcheng resented Aloy in his heart, that was a separate matter. Revenge was fine, but killing her was unnecessary.

If he had still been awake back then, he would definitely not have allowed Lear to hurt Aloy like this!

“Look at what you’ve done! Don’t forget the plan that my father discussed with you!”

“You called me just to tell me this? Don’t bother me like this next time, or else you’ll get what’s coming.”

Lear grimaced. He thought that this fellow had something important to say, but he did not expect it to be about such a trivial matter.

‘This b*stard actually dared to threaten me?!’ Zhang Youcheng’s eyebrows shot up.

“I’m warning you. When we first formed an alliance, we had already told you about our future plans. What you’re doing now has completely disrupted the foundation of our plans!”

“What’s it to you?” Lear snorted in disdain and hung up.

“Hello? Lear? Hey! Son of a *****!” Zhang Youcheng was so angry that he slammed the table and threw his phone to the side.

‘This is so annoying!’

Each of these accomplices was more difficult to talk to than the last. If this went on, when would they be able to gather their strength to deal with Shen Fei?

...

“We’re sleeping in the same suite tonight. Won’t it be embarrassing?”

Shen Fei put on his clothes and walked out of the bathroom. He looked at Aloy, who was using her phone on the other bed.

“What are you afraid of? We’re not even sleeping in the same bed. Besides, we’re already engaged. It doesn’t matter, even if some rumors get out.”

“Ah, the ridiculous rumors about us that have been passed down for more than 180 generations.”

Aloy revealed a mysterious smile and tossed her phone to Shen Fei. Shen Fei caught the phone and saw the gossip on the screen.

[Shocking! What’s up with the goddess having three sons and one daughter with a good-for-nothing man?]

When he saw the title, Shen Fei frowned. What was this? Why was he considered a good-for-nothing? And what was with the extra children?

“The rumors outside are ridiculous.”

Aloy shrugged her shoulders and covered herself with a blanket. “That aside, let’s not forget why we’re staying here. It’s good to not be alone.”

“Indeed.” Shen Fei nodded his head and casually summoned his Flame Owl. He placed it on the bedside table.

“You’ll keep watch tonight.”

“Coo!” The Flame Owl nodded and watched the door with wide eyes.

Shen Fei stretched his waist and jumped onto the bed. After such a long night, he just wanted to sleep early. However, today’s incident had reminded him that in this city, danger was everywhere!

He had to grow his strength as soon as possible.
