Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 433: Chapters 438 439 Really


After some friction with the four scions of Hengyuan at the Hengyuan Department Store, everyone lost the desire to shop. So after wandering around the mall for a while, they left!

After dropping off Lan Lan, Su Yun was also sent back to Minghai Academy's family compound, leaving Ye Xiao, Ling Shuya, Zhou Yuyan, Shen Qiuyu, and Tang Rong to quickly return to the Sunshine Garden community.

"Is this the neighborhood where Sister Ling lives? It's so beautiful!" As the car drove into Sunshine Garden, Tang Rong exclaimed in surprise.

"It's alright," Ling Shuya said indifferently.

"Yes, it really is beautiful," suddenly, Tang Rong's expression changed slightly, and she said, "I miss Dad. Can I go see him?"

Hearing Tang Rong's words, everyone was momentarily stunned. Shen Qiuyu immediately offered comforting words, "Rongrong, your dad is watching over you from heaven. He's always with you."

Tang Rong, surprised by Shen Qiuyu's words, immediately said, "Is that true? Is Dad really always with me?"

"Really!" Shen Qiuyu affirmed.

Tang Rong suddenly sighed and said, "If that's true, I'm glad. People die, just like a lamp goes out. I understand that. Sister Shen, thank you for comforting me."

Hearing Tang Rong speak like an adult, everyone was stunned, then felt a sourness in their hearts.

Maybe because it was getting dark, and although Tang Rong was with her dad last night, now she was forever separated from him by heaven and earth. So, after arriving at the villa, she didn't show any cheerfulness but was very down.

Ye Xiao offered a few words of comfort, and to his surprise, Tang Rong fell asleep in his arms.

"Ah, poor girl," Ye Xiao sighed, sitting on the couch at the time.

"Which room should Rongrong sleep in?" Zhou Yuyan asked.

"Let's go tidy up a room for Rongrong," Ling Shuya suggested.

At that moment, Shen Qiuyu shook her head and said, "Let's not do that. Rongrong will be really scared sleeping alone. She needs someone to sleep with her."

"What should we do?" Zhou Yuyan asked, "Who will sleep with Rongrong?"

Just then, as Ye Xiao looked at the girls, about to speak, Ling Shuya said, "You don't get a say, and don't even think about letting Rongrong sleep in the same room as you. She's only twelve!"

Crap—

Ye Xiao was speechless. What on earth was this girl thinking?

That was when Shen Qiuyu said, "She can sleep with me. My room is big enough anyway."

Hearing Shen Qiuyu's words, both Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan immediately agreed.

Ye Xiao looked at Shen Qiuyu and said, "Miss Shen, we appreciate your kindness."

Shen Qiuyu smiled and said, "It's no trouble at all; Rongrong isn't a few months old baby."

After that, Ye Xiao carried Tang Rong and headed straight for Shen Qiuyu's bedroom.

Watching Tang Rong's peaceful expression, Ye Xiao finally let out a sigh.

"Where did you go this afternoon?" As soon as he stepped out of Shen Qiuyu's bedroom, she asked softly.

At this time, Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan were in the downstairs living room, leaving only Shen Qiuyu with Ye Xiao.

On being asked by Shen Qiuyu, Ye Xiao smiled slightly and said, "What, worried about me?"

Shen Qiuyu immediately gave Ye Xiao a look and said, "I'm being serious!"

Ye Xiao could see the genuine concern in her eyes, and he felt moved.

At that moment, Zhou Hao's voice came from below!

Ye Xiao had already known about Zhou Hao's arrival, as he had called ahead of time. When Ye Xiao went downstairs, he saw Zhou Hao chatting happily with Zhou Yuyan and Ling Shuya.

But upon seeing Ye Xiao come down, Zhou Hao hurried over, holding a worn black fabric bag in his hand.

"Are you short on cash?" Ye Xiao looked at Zhou Hao.

"Not at all!"

"Then why are you carrying such a worn fabric bag? Has the price of these bags gone up?"

Zhou Hao immediately chuckled and said, "Just picked it off the ground!"

By then, Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan had also joined in.

"What's inside? Zhou Hao wouldn't let us see!" Ling Shuya complained.

Zhou Hao quickly looked uncomfortable and handed the black fabric bag to Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao then looked at Ling Shuya with a smile and said, "Do you really want to know?"

"Is there something you're hiding?" Ling Shuya looked at Ye Xiao with suspicion.

Ye Xiao replied, "Come here, I'll tell you quietly."

Thinking that she'd expressed her curiosity already, and if Ye Xiao was inviting her over, not going would seem like she was being cowardly.

So, she went over.

Then Ye Xiao leaned in and whispered a few words in Ling Shuya's ear. Instantly, Ling Shuya's face turned red down to her neck, which left Zhou Yuyan and her brother standing by, looking at each other, puzzled as to what Ye Xiao could have said to provoke such a reaction in Ling Shuya.

Ling Shuya's face turned red, and then she glared fiercely at Ye Xiao, angrily declaring, "Ye Xiao, you shameless thing!"

"You might have misunderstood, let me explain!" Ye Xiao started to step forward as he spoke.

However, Ling Shuya reacted as if she had been electrocuted, stepping back several paces before hurriedly dragging Zhou Yuyan upstairs!

Zhou Yuyan wore a puzzled expression as she was pulled along, asking with curiosity, "What does this mean?"

Ling Shuya didn't speak and just continued to drag Zhou Yuyan in a sprint.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Hao immediately looked confused and turned to Ye Xiao for an explanation, "Boss, what's the meaning of this?"

"Heh, it's nothing! Nothing at all," Ye Xiao, pointing to the nearby sofa, said, "Sit!"

Subsequently, the two took their seats.

Meanwhile, upstairs, Zhou Yuyan was pulled into a room by Ling Shuya.

"Shuya, what on earth happened? Why is your face so red?" Zhou Yuyan asked with a puzzled look, expressing her confusion.

Upon hearing Zhou Yuyan's question, Ling Shuya's face turned even redder.

"Ye Xiao, that bastard!" Ling Shuya exclaimed furiously, plopping herself down on the princess bed.

"What happened? My dear lady, can you stop whetting my appetite?"

"Do you know what was in that black fabric bag?" Ling Shuya looked at Zhou Yuyan with a mysterious expression and said.

Seeing Ling Shuya's look, Ye Xiao immediately bitter-smiled and said, "What is it? Isn't it some treasure perhaps?"

"Hmph, some treasure, my foot! It's... it's male enhancement drugs!"

Hearing Ling Shuya's words, Zhou Yuyan immediately opened her mouth in surprise.

"Really? Male enhancement drugs?" Zhou Yuyan exclaimed in surprise.

"Definitely, Ye Xiao told me himself!" Ling Shuya said.

Zhou Yuyan thought for a moment, then said, "But why would he tell you that?"

"Because I asked him!" Ling Shuya said.

Zhou Yuyan spoke further, "But he didn't let you see the fabric bag, so how can you be so sure it's male enhancement drugs?"

"He said it!" Ling Shuya insisted.

Zhou Yuyan smiled softly and said, "My guess is, it must be something he doesn't want us to know about. So, he deliberately told you it's male enhancement drugs to make you feel too embarrassed to look!"

Upon hearing Zhou Yuyan's explanation, Ling Shuya immediately felt as if she had been played!

Right, if it really were male enhancement drugs, how could Ye Xiao announce it happily?

"That scoundrel, I must find out exactly what's inside that black fabric bag!" Ling Shuya declared resolutely.

"Curiosity killed the cat!" Zhou Yuyan kindly reminded her.

"Humph, can you say something more auspicious?" Ling Shuya said with a look of disdain.

Zhou Yuyan said, "If you ask me, let him do whatever he wants. Why should we care so much!"

But Ling Shuya didn't see it that way. She felt that since Ye Xiao purposefully claimed it was male enhancement drugs and didn't want her to know what it was, the contents of the fabric bag must be highly questionable. At least, she was now very curious about what was inside!

Ling Shuya gave it some thought, then said to Zhou Yuyan, "Yuyan, didn't you say your brother listens to you?"

"Yes, what about it?" Zhou Yuyan looked at Ling Shuya with a puzzled look, not knowing what the spoiled young lady had come up with.

Indeed, Ling Shuya immediately said with a cheerful grin, "Here's the plan, tonight when you return to your villa, come up with any possible method to find out what is inside that black fabric bag. As for me, I'll launch a few surprise attacks. You know, I have all the keys to the rooms!"

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Zhou Yuyan always felt there was something not quite right but couldn't put her finger on what it was.

However, Ling Shuya now felt she had been mocked by Ye Xiao, and this was absolutely something she could not just let go. Hence, she wanted revenge—or at the very least, to find out exactly what was inside that black fabric bag!

"Just do as I say, and hmph, to think that guy actually lied to me about it being male enhancement drugs!" Ling Shuya said, her face sporting a mischievous grin.

Meanwhile, downstairs, as Ye Xiao was having a hearty chat with Zhou Hao, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, as if danger was looming.

"Brother Xiao, there's something I want to discuss with you!"

"What's that?"

"It's about Tang Xuewen," Zhou Hao said, "The kid is young, but he's very bright. He's not too keen on social matters, but whenever it comes to business affairs, he always speaks confidently and knowledgeably. Such a person should be nurtured!"

This was the second time Ye Xiao had heard about Tang Xuewen; the first had been from Sun Yuze, and now Zhou Hao was mentioning him too!

Zhou Hao had his own extensive overseas experiences and had met many people. So, considering his opinion too, it seemed that Tang Xuewen indeed had a business mind.

"He's still young now; let him finish his studies at the academy first," Ye Xiao said, "Moreover, I don't have any businesses right now for him to make a great showing."

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's response, Zhou Hao sighed and suggested, "Brother Xiao, I recommend that you establish your own financial order as soon as possible. After all, sometimes, money can be more useful than superior strength!"

Business!

Should I embark on this path? Oh right, I am currently the largest shareholder of Jianjun Real Estate, owning more than 60% of the stakes. Well, this also counts as my first step, doesn't it?
