36: Chapter 36: Excel in Both the Hall and the Kitchen 36: Chapter 36: Excel in Both the Hall and the Kitchen Having such uncles, Ye Tianchen truly felt the sorrow of his rebirth, no wonder the Ye family was in decline. The prosperity of a family could hardly be sustained by one person alone. Especially after Ye Yuanshan stepped down, none of his three sons stepped up. The competition for inheritance between his eldest son, Ye Mubai, and his second son, Ye Heguo, grew fiercer and fiercer. With such disunity, how could the Ye family not decline? Since his uncles did not treat him as family, Ye Tianchen obviously would not be polite either, especially after hearing that his mother, Luo Yan, had been wronged. He would have taken action against the two if they were not his father’s brothers. “You…you dare to be violent in the Ye family’s ancestral home, is there no respect for family rules anymore?” Another security guard said, trembling. Bang! Ye Tianchen still kicked the other security guard out, watching the two guards wailing on the ground, he coldly said, “You two dogs dare to speak of the Ye family rules. Are you worthy? If you dare disrespect your masters again, no one can save your lives!” “Tianchen, let’s just leave, let’s go…” Luo Yan, who had a kind heart, urged. After all, they were at the ancestral home of the Ye family, and the old master was there. It wouldn’t be good to cause a scene. After giving the guards a fierce glare, which terrified them, Ye Tianchen left. These guards, following Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo’s instructions, had never shown any kindness to his parents and sister every time they visited. Ye Hong, for the sake of family and everything, never brooded over it. But he had never expected Ye Tianchen to become so formidable, no longer the failure and wastrel he used to be. Leaving the Ye ancestral home, Ye Tianchen felt great. Over the years, his parents and sister suffered not only from the cold mockery of his uncles but also from the bullying of these security guards. His father, Ye Hong, did it for the sake of the family, but Ye Tianchen was different. He wouldn’t initiate trouble, but he wasn’t afraid of it either. If even a dog dared so much, without discipline, there was no telling how much more his parents and sister would have to suffer in the future. “Tianchen, they are still your uncles. Doing this, won’t your father feel guilty? After all, the old master is getting on in years,” Luo Yan said, trying to counsel Ye Tianchen. “Mom, from now on, you guys should not go to the Ye ancestral home anymore, whatever it is, don’t go there. We’ll handle our family’s matters ourselves,” Ye Tianchen said with a smile. “Hmm!” Through this incident, Luo Yan felt thoroughly disheartened. She had always thought, regardless of anything else, they were still a family who would help each other in life-and-death situations. But she had not expected Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo to not only offer no help but also mock and kick them when they were down, deeply hurting familial feelings. “By the way, son, what happened with the Luo family, and what were those two police officers inquiring about?” Luo Yan asked, still somewhat uneasy. “I’ll handle the matter with the Luo family, and those two police officers weren’t a big deal, just routine questions, which were not related to me, so I left,” Ye Tianchen said with a smile. Luo Yan looked at her son Ye Tianchen and found herself increasingly surprised by him. Although he was still occasionally humorous and joked with his family, he had lost the air of those who squander wealth, gaining instead a manly domineering presence. Fortunately, all these were positive changes, maybe her son had truly grown up, Luo Yan could only think of that as the reason. Inside the Luo family villa, Luo Songcheng and his second son, Luo Qi, were discussing the matter concerning the Capital City’s top Assassin, Wuxue, because Ye Tianchen’s transformation had been unexpected. Not daring to act overtly, Luo Songcheng thought of hiring Wuxue to eliminate Ye Tianchen, determined not to let the Ye family get the better of them. “What did Wuxue say?” Luo Songcheng asked. “He said he would act tonight, and he hopes to see his foster father released by tomorrow morning,” Luo Qi replied. “Tell him that’s fine. The job must be seamless. When it’s done, I’ll not only find a way to free his foster father but also give him a sum of money to go far away,” Luo Songcheng said with a sly smile. “Dad, do you really plan to release Wuxue’s foster father, and give them money too?” Luo Qi knew his father, Luo Songcheng, was a ruthless man, how come he became so generous suddenly? “You fool, of course, that’s what we say. Remember to have someone follow Wuxue. Once he completes his task, take him out immediately. I don’t want any clues leading back to us later on!” Luo Songcheng said gravely. “Got it, dad, I’ll take care of it!” Luo Songcheng was a ruthless character, not only plotting to send Wuxue to kill Ye Tianchen but also planning to eliminate Wuxue afterwards, killing two birds with one stone, hoping to forever erase any evidence of his involvement in the assassination of Ye Tianchen, completely solving the problem of this thorn in his side. By the time Ye Tianchen and his mother returned to the villa, it was already past six in the evening. Ye Tianchen had spent the time shopping for clothes with his mother, Luo Yan. When they got home, they found the dining table laden with delicious dishes, and Qi Ruxue busy in the kitchen. “Auntie, you’re back! Take a rest, Qianwen will be back from school soon, and then we can eat!” Qi Ruxue said with a smile. Luo Yan nodded in approval, although the Qi family’s forceful marriage withdrawal brought shame to the Ye family, Qi Ruxue was innocent. Besides, this girl was beautiful and diligent, adept both in the hall and the kitchen, and she instantly became Luo Yan’s “prospective daughter-in-law.” “You don’t know how blessed you are, lad, such a great wife-to-be. Compliment her later, don’t be ungrateful,” Luo Yan said sternly to Ye Tianchen. Ye Tianchen was extremely frustrated. He really didn’t understand what Qi Ruxue was up to, deceiving his mother and sister with a bunch of lies, and now she was even cooking. Could she actually have fallen in love with him? Thinking of this possibility, Ye Tianchen shook his head vigorously. Although he hadn’t known Qi Ruxue for long, he was familiar with this young lady’s temperament and was sure she wouldn’t be so kind as to cook for them. “Ruxue, why do you have to cook yourself? Come here, let Auntie do it,” Luo Yan said with a smile, though her hands remained idle, seemingly testing her future daughter-in-law. “Auntie, you go and rest, I’ll just finish the soup,” Qi Ruxue said with a smile. Actually, Qi Ruxue’s decision to cook stemmed from boredom; she often cooked for herself when living abroad, and her culinary skills were decent. Secondly, staying with the Ye family meant she was somewhat of a disturbance, thus cooking a meal for Auntie and the younger sister was nothing excessive. Soon, Ye Qianwen came back from school and was surprised to see the table full of dishes, laughing and asking, “Mom, what’s the occasion today? Is it a holiday? So many delicious dishes, even abalone and lobster are on the table!” “Hehe, it wasn’t your mom who did this, it was all your sister Ruxue’s doing.” From Luo Yan’s tone, one could tell she was increasingly pleased with her future daughter-in-law. “Wow, Sister Ruxue is really amazing. She’s beautiful, can cook; whoever marries Sister Ruxue would be truly lucky,” laughed Ye Qianwen. After speaking, Ye Qianwen ran over to her brother, Ye Tianchen, who was lounging on the sofa, sipping coffee and reading the newspaper comfortably. “Brother, stop being oblivious. Honestly, I don’t know what Sister Ruxue sees in you. If I were her, I definitely wouldn’t fancy you!” Ye Qianwen said, giving her brother Ye Tianchen a sidelong glance. “Hey, are you rebelling, you little rascal? Is that how you talk about your own brother?” Ye Tianchen said, speechlessly looking at his sister. “I think your sister is right. You, the frog, getting the swan’s love from Ruxue, must be dumb luck!” Before Ye Qianwen could respond, their mother Luo Yan interjected. “Mom, do you really talk about your son like that?” Facing his mother and sister, Ye Tianchen was completely speechless. Qi Ruxue’s flowery words had gained their trust, making him look like the unfaithful one, and Qi Ruxue the devoted woman. His mother and sister had already belittled him a bit, and now Qi Ruxue’s cooking had further relegated him to the role of a fool, deeply frustrating. “Auntie, little sister, let’s eat!” Qi Ruxue said with a smile, placing the soup she had prepared on the dining table.

After wandering the streets with mom all afternoon, I’m starving!” Ye Tianchen was the first to rush to the dining table. He always took his meals seriously and seeing Qi Ruxue’s dishes, all flavorful and appealing, he hadn’t expected the young miss’s cooking to be that good. Just as Ye Tianchen was about to start eating, Qi Ruxue blocked him, giving him a smug look with her cute face and her beautiful eyes glaring fiercely at him, saying, “I cooked this meal to thank Auntie and the little sister for letting me stay, you’ve been itching to send me away. You think you get to eat my cooking? No way!” “Hey, Qi Ruxue, please understand this is my house, not yours. Do I need your permission to eat in my own home?” Ye Tianchen asked, clearly annoyed. “What do you think?” Qi Ruxue said with a smirk, glancing at Ye Tianchen’s mother and sister. Ye Tianchen turned to look at his mother and sister, realizing they were nodding; it was clear they were siding with Qi Ruxue, infuriating Ye Tianchen so much he almost jumped out of his seat. “How about it? If you apologize to this young miss, I might let you sit down and eat,” Qi Ruxue said with a sweet, mischievous smile. “No way, I’d rather eat instant noodles than your cooking, which must taste awful!” That evening, Qi Ruxue, Luo Yan, and Ye Qianwen, the three women, ate joyously for over an hour until around eight o’clock when it got dark. Meanwhile, Ye Tianchen sat beside them eating instant noodles, occasionally teased by Qi Ruxue. If it weren’t for his mother and sister being there, Ye Tianchen and Qi Ruxue, these two merry nemeses, would probably have started bickering. In the eyes of Luo Yan and Ye Qianwen, however, it sort of resembled a couple’s playful squabble.
