Chapter 75: You are Still Very Inexperienced
“You… you have gone too far!” Lin Xiao finally got angry, even a clay buddha had its limits. If he could still hold back his anger… that really means his shrewdness has reached higher planes, or that he was not man enough.
“Master Lin do you really have no confidence in yourself?” Ye Wuchen asked laughingly.
“No confidence? Hmph! I, Lin Xiao, have a six year engagement with Hua Shuirou. The people of Tian Long know of it, having been confirmed and approved by the Emperor as well as General Hua. She will enter my family and become Lin Xiao’s wife.” Lin Xiao said heavily.
“Oh, since you already have such confidence in marrying Hua Shuirou, you don’t have to personally approach me about it. You can completely treat me as someone with wishful thinking who is not worth your attention, or deem it as a big joke. Isn’t that more interesting? Master Lin, you cannot say yes to one thing and actually mean another thing, other people may look down upon you.” Ye Wuchen pondered.
Lin Xiao’s face became gloomy, unable to answer. If another person had done the same, he would have done as Ye Wuchen had said, ignore it… but as the offender is Ye Wuchen, the threat he brings is not small. Even now, standing beside him as his defeated opponent, he has that unscalable feeling of heaviness and frustration.
He gritted his teeth and spoke no further, turning around to leave.
When his shadow disappeared past the corner, the frivolous smile on Ye Wuchen’s face suddenly disappeared, replaced by his usual indifferent expression. In front of others, he was used to wearing a mask, though it was uncomfortable and he preferred his natural self. He asked in a low voice, “Xue-er, he and I held no grudges in the past, moreover he is a true n.o.bleman. Did I treat him too badly?”
Ning Xue lightly shook her head. “I am unsure. I only know that everything you did was right and you have your own reasons. You shouldn't feel guilty.”
Ye Wuchen crouched down, touching her face and smiled. “I’m not guilty, just somewhat troubled because there’s nothing between us. The only problem is his position and my ident.i.ty right now. Our families are destined to be enemies, and I’ve merely chosen him to be my first stepping stone.”
Ning Xue nodded as if she understood, then tightly gripped Ye Wuchen’s hands and carefully said, “Brother… do you really like that beautiful sister? Because brother, you are always stealing glances at her, and… and…”
“Yes, I’m somewhat fond of her. An engrossing woman, I won’t let her slip away so easily. She is destined to belong solely to me.” Ye Wuchen said smiling.
“Then…When brother has that pretty sister, will you still have me?” Ning Xue said nervously, her crystal-like eyes unexpectedly began to moisten.
“Foolish girl,” Ye Wuchen touched her little face, laughing, speaking more gently now. “Even if I hate the entire world, I would never abandon my Xue-er. Don’t ask that same foolish question again.”
“Then will it mean that I can still help bathe brother and hug brother while I sleep?”
“If Xue-er is willing, then it would forever be possible.”
Ning Xue eventually turned her tears into laughter, embracing Wuchen’s neck and smiled happily. “I know brother is the best… I was really scared, scared that once brother has that pretty sister, you would start to ignore me.”
“Do you still remember what I told you about such women who are the roots of trouble? They will all be part of my collection. They might be some significant persons or people who need protection. And you, you are the other half of my life.
Ye Wuchen hugged her, then quietly listened to the noises outside which had gradually settled down. The crowd in the plaza were beginning to slowly disperse. He was waiting for someone, and if that person was ignoring him or didn’t have initiative to show himself, then he severely misjudged that person.
Without disappointment, a cold face appeared in the corner, that which belongs to Leng Ya, slowly approaching him. Before he came any closer, Ye Wuchen said flatly, “You don’t have to be thankful, I’m only using you.”
Leng Ya stopped his steps and replied coldly, “I’m here to tell you not to expect any thanks, furthermore, don’t presume that I will be your courtyard bodyguard. Stop meddling in other people’s business!”
After speaking, he turned around, stamping cold and hard as he left.
Ye Wuchen shook his head disappointedly, mumbling, “Originally, I planned to heal your mother’s eyes, but since you didn’t appreciate my kindness, then forget it.”
Leng Ya’s footsteps suddenly stopped, then suddenly like a frantic cheetah dashed back to stand in front of him, both eyes gazing at him like blades, saying each word harshly. “What did you say?”
“Your name is Leng Ya?” Ye Wuchen dodged the question and leisurely asked instead, not even worried about being refused an answer.
“Yes.”
“What is your real name?”
“Leng Ya!”
“Do you need money?”
“......”
Ye Wuchen looked straight at him. “Shortage of money is not a shameful matter, if you have no money, what will you and your mother eat, wear, and where would you stay?! What would you use to treat your sick mother? This is not something to be embarra.s.sed about. You have already revealed your ident.i.ty in this compet.i.tion, that makes it difficult for you to set foot on Tian Long City in the future. Since you are not a citizen of Tian Long Nation, you might not know of the animosity between the people of Tian Long and Gale Nation. When the time comes, what else could you do except to steal and to rob? If you serve my family, at least I can guarantee you and you mother’s safety, as well as heal her illness so that she does not suffer any more hardships. Don’t tell me that for the sake of ridiculous dignity, you would ignore your own mother’s safety? Even resort to foul acts!?”
Leng Ya was immersed in silence and refused to talk. After a long while he said coldly, “If you can really heal my mother’s eyes, then in a year’s time, I’ll do whatever you want!”
“Your mother’s eyes in exchange for a year of service. How about her life?”
Leng Ya startled upon hearing these words, then his eyes showed extreme violence, overflowing with murder.
Ye Wuchen laughed coldly, “Put away your murderous spirit. Even though I’m not a good person, I’m unlikely to use despicable methods like using your mother to threaten you. Let me ask you, if I don’t step forward to help you, what would happen to you?”
“......”
“Worst case, they will interrogate you about your past and then immediately execute you; best case, you will be imprisoned for life, and they will surely investigate your mother as well. Knowing the emperor’s methods, do you still think you can escape? On the other hand, even if you are released after one or two months of imprisonment, during that time, you will not be available, and your mother will have n.o.body to rely on. What could she depend on to be able to live?”
Leng Ya’s whole body shook, in an instant he broke into a cold sweat. He tightly clenched his fists as he slightly trembled.
“You are still very inexperienced. You have acceptable skills and explosive strength so you handle matters rudely and impetuously, disregarding the consequences. Excluding the incident today, it’s a mistake on your part, bringing your mother here in Tian Long Nation. If you want to leave the Gale Nation, you may be able to go to the Kui Shui Nation or Cang Lan Nation, just don’t come here to the Tian Long Nation! The hostility between Tian Long Nation and Gale Nation is not something that can be eliminated in the matter of ten years or eight years.”
“......”
