Chapter 152 - 151 [Is This Called Poor Appetite?]

Chapter 152: Chapter 151 [Is This Called Poor Appetite?]Ye Tianchen, Ling Yuxun, and Xiao Ya, the trio, walked out of the gates of Longteng University. On their way to the famous seafood restaurant outside the university, they attracted a lot of attention. Initially, many people were discussing how Ye Tianchen had gotten into big trouble by hitting Xuanyuan Yu. Later, a lot of male students looked at them with envy and jealousy, leaving Ye Tianchen quite speechless. "I say, lovely ladies, maybe I shouldn’t walk with you in the future to avoid being killed by those glares. Such injustice!" Ye Tianchen said with a feigned smile. "Oh please, having two beauties like us walking with you, you’d wake up from your sleep laughing. Just enjoy it secretly!" Ling Yuxun smiled and stuck out her tongue playfully at Ye Tianchen as she spoke. As the three of them walked into the seafood restaurant outside Longteng University, they were unaware that a pair of resentful eyes were following them, with a gaze so intense it seemed it wanted to tear Ye Tianchen limb from limb. "Young Master, I didn’t expect that Ye Tianchen, that bastard, would be so skilled, I..." Li Yi said somewhat awkwardly as he looked at Xuanyuan Yu beside him. "Come here..." Xuanyuan Yu’s face was an ashen color, the memory of being knocked unconscious by Ye Tianchen’s kick still enraging him. "What? Hmm?" Li Yi, not hearing clearly, leaned in closer with his ear towards Xuanyuan Yu, intending to understand better. Slap—a loud slap in the face echoed, startling the two thugs beside them. Xuanyuan Yu’s slap landed heavily on Li Yi’s face, almost making him stagger. Receiving a heavy slap from a sixteen-year-old was humiliating enough for Li Yi, yet he didn’t dare show any temper nor could he afford to—he knew the consequences of being a lackey. The master could reward, beat, or scold as he pleased. Although Xuanyuan Yu was not Li Yi’s master per se, he was Xuanyuan Teng’s younger brother, and Li Yi dared not offend him.

It’s shameful that you are considered a capable man under my brother’s command. You must want to die, huh?" Xuanyuan Yu cursed at Li Yi fiercely. "Yes, I’m sorry, Young Master. I’ve already called two brothers from the Taekwondo gym to help, but none of them were a match for Ye Tianchen. That bastard has some skills!" In fear, Li Yi quickly spoke. Xuanyuan Teng was indeed a ruthless figure. During his time at Longteng University, many had challenged him, and without exception, they either left school maimed or were forced to beg for mercy. Some even disappeared without a trace, clearly dealt with by people sent by Xuanyuan Teng. Of course, Xuanyuan Teng was equally harsh to his ineffective subordinates. Thus, among the ’Three Masters of Longteng’, Xuanyuan Teng was definitely one to be feared for his ruthless heart and heavy hand. "Some skills? Even if he is skilled, I want him dead!" Xuanyuan Yu did not in the least bit resemble a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old. He was every bit as ruthless as his older brother, Xuanyuan Teng, if not even more arrogant. If he was this imperious at such a young age, what would he be like when he grew up? "As the Young Master says, that bastard Ye Tianchen must die. I will definitely find a way to kill him!" Li Yi said vehemently. "You? Don’t fucking embarrass my brother any further!" Xuanyuan Yu looked at Li Yi disdainfully. "Yes, yes. Then what do you suggest, Young Master?" Li Yi quickly asked with a smile. "Hmph, I’ve already called my brother. He’s busy in Shanghai right now and will only return to Capital City in a few days. But he has already sent Ah Hu to help me. In short, anyone who dares to challenge my brother is seeking death!" Xuanyuan Yu said confidently with a cold laugh. "Ah Hu? Is he going to take action?" Upon hearing that Xuanyuan Teng had sent "Ah Hu", Li Yi was shocked. It was only then that he realized the wisdom in obeying Xuanyuan Yu in the absence of Xuanyuan Teng at Longteng University. Otherwise, if Xuanyuan Teng got angry, even his life might not be spared. Ah Hu was one of Xuanyuan Teng’s men, essentially the boss of the streets around Longteng University, with over four hundred men under him. He had once fought his way to power single-handedly with a machete, becoming a notorious criminal who indeed didn’t hesitate to kill. He took control of the streets outside Longteng University and garnered a following of several hundred brothers. Later, he was subdued by Xuanyuan Teng and became an assassin under Xuanyuan Teng’s command. Whenever there was trouble at Longteng University, Xuanyuan Teng would have Ah Hu take care of it. Li Yi hadn’t expected that Xuanyuan Teng would send Ah Hu so quickly, which was surprising because every time Ah Hu intervened, someone would end up dead. Being an utterly unscrupulous criminal, it seemed Xuanyuan Yu was truly intent on having Ye Tianchen killed. "My brother said, don’t even mention one Ye Tianchen, even ten Ye Tianchens must die!" Xuanyuan Yu said with a sinister tone, completely unfit for his age. "Young master, lately Capital City has been all about this Ye Tianchen guy. Even the Qin family and the Luo family were wiped out by him. I’m afraid we need to be extra careful!" A burly henchman said worriedly. Indeed, Ye Tianchen had become Capital City’s biggest news of late, especially when he carried a coffin to the Qin family, then wiped out the entire Luo family the next day—it was simply one shocking incident after another. Almost everyone with status and background had heard about Ye Tianchen’s deeds in Capital City. Xiao Ya hadn’t heard only because she wasn’t involved in such circles. As for Ling Yuxun, although her family background was significant, she had been abroad these years. Besides, these girls were not really interested in such matters, focusing more on dining, shopping, and makeup—so it was not unusual for them not to know. "Yes, the matters with the Qin and Luo families seem to have been suppressed by someone with high authority; indeed, it’s not simple. Even though the Ye family has fallen, Ye Tianchen’s emergence feels like a revival for the Ye family. Young master, we really should be cautious, the Qin and Luo families have fallen!" Li Yi also expressed his concern. The thought of Ye Tianchen’s actions after his return to Capital City sent a shiver down Li Yi’s spine. He suddenly realized how he could have had the courage to trouble Ye Tianchen. This probably wasn’t Ye Tianchen looking for death anymore; instead, it was he himself seeking it. After all, the Qin and Luo families were finished, with almost all their members dead. There was no doubt these two families would decline, their fall ensured with no suspense. In just two days, two powerful and influential families in Capital City had fallen, all due to Ye Tianchen. The very thought was terrifying. "Hmph, the Qin family? The Luo family? What are they compared to my Xuanyuan family? No matter how strong Ye Tianchen is, he’s not even one-tenth as formidable as my brother. This time, he must die!" Xuanyuan Yu arrogantly declared with a cold voice. "So, what do we do next, young master?" Seeing Xuanyuan Yu’s fury, Li Yi dared not say anything more and could only go along with what Xuanyuan Yu said. "You keep an eye on Ye Tianchen, and when Ah Hu arrives, how to kill Ye Tianchen will be his problem, not mine. All I need is to hear the news that Ye Tianchen is dead!" After Xuanyuan Yu finished speaking, he got in the car and left, leaving Li Yi standing there, stunned. From a distance, he watched the seafood restaurant across the street where Ye Tianchen, Ling Yuxun, and Xiao Ya were dining. Xuanyuan Teng had already dispatched Ah Hu, the ruthless and cold-blooded thug, to deal with Ye Tianchen. Longteng University had not seen such a bloody scene for quite some time, but due to Ye Tianchen’s arrival, it was about to start again. Ye Tianchen was unaware that Xuanyuan Teng had sent someone to deal with him. He didn’t take the matter seriously and was instead observing Xiao Ya, who had hardly spoken a word all the way until now. Only he and Ling Yuxun chatted and laughed; he noticed that Xiao Ya was preoccupied with something and wished she would open up. Such a pure and lovely girl, so beautiful, he really didn’t want Xiao Ya to be unhappy. "Yaer, why do you seem so down? Are you worried about something?" Ye Tianchen asked with a smile. Xiao Ya looked up at Ye Tianchen, gave a faint smile, and shook her head, "No, it’s nothing!" Seeing Xiao Ya didn’t want to talk about it, Ye Tianchen didn’t press her. After all, everyone had their difficulties and secrets they didn’t want others to know about. If she didn’t want to talk, she must have her reasons. Ling Yuxun, on the other hand, ordered lots of seafood, like big lobsters and abalones, turning Ye Tianchen’s face green with envy. Ling Yuxun just looked at him speechless. The three of them had ordered so much seafood, it was unlikely they could finish it all. For someone like Ling Yuxun, coming from a grand family, such fresh seafood was nothing out of the ordinary; it was just like an everyday meal to her. "Sister Yaer, you should order something you like to eat too!" Ling Yuxun passed the menu to Xiao Ya with a mischievous smile. "There’s... there’s already so much, we won’t be able to finish it. How about we order less? These items are all so expensive!" Xiao Ya saw the prices of the seafood on the menu and couldn’t help showing an extravagant expression. One dish could cost her several months’ worth of living expenses. Since her family wasn’t well-off and Xiao Ya was not one to be wasteful, it pained her to see such extravagance. "Exactly, look how sensible Yaer is, unlike you who want to slaughter me with a hefty bill!" Ye Tianchen said to Ling Yuxun with an annoyed tone. "Of course, we’ve known each other since we were kids, you treating me to a meal is the least you could do. Besides, we’re two big beauties keeping you company. You should be so thrilled you’re eating more, not less. You should thank us!" Ling Yuxun replied with a playful laugh. "Yes, yes, I thank you very much, okay? But, my appetite today... is really not that great..." Ye Tianchen laughed as he spoke. Once the seafood was served, Ling Yuxun and Xiao Ya both opened their eyes wide and their mouths in awe, staring at Ye Tianchen. They were finally understanding what Ye Tianchen meant by "not having much appetite." The guy was practically devouring the entire table of seafood—his appetite was incredibly ’poor’ indeed!
