Chapter 172 - 172 167 Let Me Become a Nun
?Chapter 172: Chapter 167: Let Me Become a Nun Chapter 172: Chapter 167: Let Me Become a Nun In the morning, Ye Chen was woken up by the damn birds on the tree. Those clueless birds made such a ruckus early in the morning. A flock would leave, and then another flock would come, like they were putting on a stage show. It seemed like they wouldn’t be happy until they had woken everybody up.
He glanced around, the yard was quiet, no housemaid in sight. The room of Feng Niang across was still closed. Ye Chen stretched lazily, thinking he needed to go out and find something to eat. He hadn’t really had the chance to walk around Tianle City’s streets, and he wanted to do so. He called out: “Feng Niang, what do you want to eat? I’ll bring it back for you.”
“Don’t annoy me, I’m sleeping.”
Such a sleepyhead.
Ye Chen stepped out, but just as he was a few steps away, the mad girl next door burst out suddenly like a mother monkey. He was taken aback and said, “You, a girl, should stop walking sideways like a monkey.”
“You are the monkey, you are the one walking sideways.” Ling’er shouted.
“If I were an old man, you darting out like this would have sent you flying,” Ye Chen said.
“It serves you right if you’re sent flying.” Ling’er shouted.
“Alright, I’m not going to argue with someone uncultured.”
“You’re the one who’s uncultured!” Ling’er shouted.
Ye Chen gave a cold laugh and continued forward, but the girl also wanted to head forward.
“How was the old woman last night?” Ling’er asked deliberately.
“Good, very good, she is caring,” Ye Chen replied.
“You could have her as your mother. She does not view you as a potential match, but takes care of you like a son.”
“Still better than you, always bouncing around like a gourd-bodied mother monkey.”
A slap flew towards him, which Ye Chen dodged. Wei Yiling scoffed, “I knew she would feel no shame, already so old but still pretending to be a young girl, bouncing around on a horseback. One day she’ll hurt her back and will never be able to straighten up again.”
“You’re overthinking. She’s just lively and cute.”
“Still lively and cute at this age!”
“What’s wrong with that! She’s more attractive and cuter than you.”
“Idiot, don’t get played without knowing it. She’s just toying with you.”
“Thanks for your concern, but I don’t need you to worry.”
Ling’er continued, “She just treats you as a child and is playing with you, you little brat.”
“Ha, that’s my business.”
“Aren’t you afraid of going out with her and not knowing how to introduce her?”
“Introduce her as what?”
“Do you introduce her as your mother or your sister? If she’s your sister, she isn’t that old.”
“Thanks for being so concerned about us. But don’t you worry. It’s a new era, I don’t care at all.”
“Of course you don’t care, you just stare at her front.”
“Yeah, so what? I like it better than your flat chest.” He even deliberately glanced at it.
“What flat chest?” Ling’er looked at her front and squeezed it a bit.
“Hehe, don’t squeeze it anymore, I’ve seen it. No matter how much you squeeze, it won’t turn into a watermelon.” Ye Chen purposely said.
Upon hearing this, Yiling immediately remembered him peeping at her, her face turned red instantly, her anger reignited and she howled, about to pounce on him and strangle him, but Ye Chen turned around and ran.
Ye Chen ran faster than Ling’er and disappeared into the crowd on the street in a blink of an eye.
Wei Yiling could not possibly catch up with him.
Sweating from the run, Ye Chen managed to lose her with the help of the bustling street crowd. That crazy woman, she really wanted to fight me to the death.
Ling’er wanted to yell, but she was too angry to speak. It seemed like she would always carry this mark, which made her unsure of what to do. The thought of which made her angry.
Ye Chen bought a lot of food and came back in, calling out, “Hurry up and get up. If you don’t get up, I’ll eat everything myself.”
Only then was the door opened.
Ye Chen displayed all the food just as someone came to say they could have breakfast. It was Wei Sisan’s people inviting them. Ye Chen didn’t know someone was inviting them to eat, but he had already prepared food, so he said, “No need, I’ve already bought food. You can tell Elder Wei that they can eat themselves.”
Seeing all the food on the table, the person retreated.
“Go and wash your face before breakfast,” Ye Chen said to Feng Niang.
Feng Niang rubbed her eyes.
Ye Chen said, “I thought since you’re older than me, you would take care of me, now it’s the other way around.”
Feng Niang gave a light smile, saying, “Hehe, you just realized this now? Are you regretting it?”
“No worries, relax. I’m not pampered, so it’s just taking care of one more person.”
“You do have a way with words.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen gave a faint smile, saying, “I don’t know what you like to eat, so I bought a bit of everything. I hope there is something you like.” He bought things like dumplings, grilled sesame seed cake, BBQ pork buns, glutinous rice chicken, and so on.
Feng Niang washed her face and came over.
“Go ahead and eat. After eating, we’ll follow them back to Wasteland City.”
“Are you really going to take me to Wasteland City?”
“I assume you haven’t been back to Wasteland City for a long time, right?”
“It has indeed been many years.”
“Since I was the one who caused you to lose Feng Niang Inn, it’s only right that I take care of you.” Ye Chen continued, “You don’t know where to go now, so you can stay in my place in Wasteland City until you figure out what to do next. You can’t drift around everywhere. I wouldn’t feel secure doing that!”
Feng Niang grabbed a grilled sesame seed cake and started eating.
“Being your fiancee is quite blissful, huh!” Looking at the mountain of food, Feng Niang sighed easily.
“Of course, I’m not going to starve you to death.”
“I bet you won’t last three days.”
“I’d love to try.” Ye Chen continued, “This glutinous rice chicken is delicious, and there are dumplings below.”
“There won’t be any regret medicine when the time comes.”
“What do I have to regret? At worst, I’ll divorce and marry someone else.”
“You heartless rascal.”
Ling’er and Wan Lan were eating, but had not seen that young man come over. At this moment, Ling’er was still not entirely cooled off. Wei Sisan came out quickly, and when he did not see Ye Chen, he asked: “Where are Ye Chen and Feng Niang?”
A disciple answered: “They have already bought food, so they decided not to come over.”
“Didn’t you tell them to come here for breakfast this morning?”
The disciple said: “I don’t remember.”
Ling’er angrily said: “Dad, don’t disturb the couple.”
Wei Sisan chuckled lightly upon hearing this, and it seemed that Ling’er had been annoyed again. He asked with a laugh: “Has something else happened?”
“No, eat your meal quickly. We have to return to Wasteland City. Your life is already known to most people in Tianle City. If we don’t hurry back to Wasteland City, the people there will soon know that you’re alive. Then we won’t be able to expose Xiao Bai.”
“Well, everyone eat your food, make sure you eat well.” Wei Sisan yelled.
After eating, everyone began to gather. They needed an hour to be ready to depart.
Wei Sisan felt better, but his complexion was still very bad.
Wei Sisan asked: “Ling’er, what would you say if I arrange your marriage with Ye Chen?”
“What, Dad, are you joking with me? He’s a big lecher, and you want to marry me off to him? What are you thinking? Are you crazy? If this really is your intention, you might as well let me become a nun directly.”
“Wasn’t it all just a misunderstanding?” Wei Sisan became a little puzzled seeing Ling’er getting so agitated.
Ling’er chuckled coldly and said: “Dad, he’s already married.”
“Hehe, impossible.”
“Didn’t you already know about him and Feng Niang!”
“It’s not possible, Feng Niang won’t be with him.”
“Even if it’s not possible, you could hand your daughter’s happiness for her entire life to someone like him, it’s like sending a sheep into a tiger’s mouth.”
Wei Sisan smiled faintly: “I think it’s fine.”
“Fine, but he’s not grown up yet, and he’s only eyeing women’s bodies, he’s bound to be a scoundrel in the future.”
“You’re being too harsh, he hasn’t done anything wrong!”
Ling’er chuckled coldly and said: “Does he look like a decent person to you? He’s only seventeen or eighteen, and he’s setting his sights on people who could be his mother, isn’t he afraid of being laughed at? Will he be able to live a proper life in the future!”
“Ah, he just likes to fool around, he’s not really bad.”
“Huh, so this is not considered bad.”
“I think he’s quite good, and he matches you well. If you were with him, I’d be very relieved.”
“Dad loves making jokes with me, you must not think in that direction, otherwise, I will really become a nun.”
At this moment, Ye Chen and Feng Niang were walking over, they knew it was time to depart.
Ling’er glared at them and said: “You see, they have such a good relationship, dare you to break them apart.” She then walked over to Wan Lan.
Wei Sisan also stood up.
Ye Chen and Feng Niang were already walking over.
Wei Sisan said: “Feng Niang, your inn is gone, why not come with us to Wasteland City? I will give you a bigger inn when we get there.”
“No need, I’ve been a boss for so many years, I’m tired. I don’t want to be a boss anymore.”
However, Ye Chen said: “Don’t worry, I will definitely take good care of her.”
“Alright, you can come back to Wasteland City with us and stay in Sky Lake Manor.” Wei Sisan said.
“I haven’t agreed to join your New City Sect yet.”
“Then come back with me and see what the New City Sect is really like, and whether there’s a possibility of you joining.”
Upon hearing, Ye Chen said: “I’ll just accompany you back, and deliver Buddha all the way to the west. It’s just a couple more days now that we’re here.”
“Alright, come with me to Sky Lake Manor and see if it fits your taste.”
On the other side, Ling’er was listening and preparing. They still didn’t know the situation in Wasteland City, but they could guess, Xiao Bai would definitely strive for the Sect Leader’s position. They had to rush back to expose all this.
…
Xiao Bai asked Chen Jiu, who was beside him: “Have you already told Zhi Lang Taoist Priest and Ming Qi?”
“I have told them. They were a little hesitant, but given such a big occurrence, they will certainly support us.” Chen Jiu said.
“Everything will pass, they just need to give their votes to us.”
“Yes, they also nodded in agreement.”
“Good, as long as they vote for me, everything is possible to satisfy them, let them feel free to set their conditions.”
“I understand, you can rest assured, I will definitely get them to have no doubt about voting for you.”
“Besides, try to highlight Jiang Zhuge’s shortcomings as much as possible. Make them understand that Jiang Zhuge can’t secure a better tomorrow for New City Sect.”
“I get it, I will make them understand the most correct choice is to follow us.”
“Right, make sure they understand this.” For Xiao Bai, nothing else matters. The Sect Leader’s position is of utmost importance to him.
“What has Jiang Zhuge been doing these days?”
“He’s been dealing with those corpses, trying to figure out what exactly happened.”
“Ha ha, he’s such a good guy.”
“Anyway, it has nothing to do with us. Let him investigate, he won’t find anything on us.” Chen Jiu said.
Xiao Bai nodded and said: “Everything has to wait till I have control of the Sect Leader’s position.”
