Chapter 199 – Driven By Greed! (2/2)
Although Yan Xiangma and Li Muyang have not known each other for too long, but deep down, he did like this dark-skinned, pure and also very ambitious boy. Yan Xiangma felt that, underneath his worry-free appearance, he was hiding a lot of secrets that others can't see. But these things are not hateful; instead it made others feel sympathy for him.
The most important thing is that he has a beautiful and cute sister.
Yan Xiangma did not wish to be pulled into this pool of muddy water, which would destroy his friends.h.i.+p with Li Muyang, and as for Li s.h.i.+nian——even if they run into each other in the future they would only see each other as pa.s.ser-bys.
Of course, this was the best ending he could imagine. Family conflicts, can it really be settled peacefully?
Without killing a few people, without a few splashes of blood, things can't be settled so easily.
“Slippery fellow.” Yan baitao pointed at Yan Xiangma's head with his finger. “Xiangma, I know you and that Li Muyang are friends, and you have a crush on his little sister——”
“Uncle, I have a little insignificant personal friends.h.i.+p with Li Muyang, but about I having a crush on his sister——who did you listen to?”
“Do I need to listen to others? Since you came back, you waited at that girl's school gate everyday, and then shamelessly followed her home. This matter has spread throughout Tiandu, our Yan family's faces have been lost——What is there to say? The Yan family's young master Yan Xiangma likes a daughter of a servant of the Lu family. Yan Xiangma, would you say that is shameful? Are you not embarra.s.sed?”
Yan Xiangma's face reddened slightly, seeming somewhat embarra.s.sed, as he replied: “Uncle, don't listen to nonsense, there's no such thing. The reason I waited at the school gate was because I'm afraid someone would hurt s.h.i.+nian——You also know that, because of the rumours, the entire Tiandu is watching her and her family. That Muyang boy is smart; he knows to hide in a place where no one can find him. There is nothing others could do. Li Yan and Luo Qi do not come out of the house if there isn't anything important, and if they hide in the Lu family's mansion, no one dares to find trouble. But think about it, what about Li s.h.i.+nian? She's just a girl, she needs to go to school every day, if those greedy little people wanted to please the Cui family and did something to her——I would feel apologetic.”
“Nonsense.” Yan Batao yelled angrily. “Yan Xiangma, listen to what you just said. Those who want to please the Cui family are greedy little people? What is your stance? What is your relations.h.i.+p with the Cui family?”
“Uncle——”
“Xiangma, you're not young anymore, you should be sensible. As you just said, why do people please the Cui family? Is it not for benefit. Don't you have to impress Cui family? That Li Muyang killed a descendant of the Cui family, yet you go find that murderer's sister all day long and even went to the trouble of walking her home. How do you think the Cui family will look at you? How do you think the entire Tiandu will look at you?”
“Uncle, I know what you mean. I just think that for every debt there is a debtor and third parties should not be involved. If Li Muyang really killed someone, then they should find Li Muyang, why bully a woman? Such a big family, such a powerful group of great masters, why plot against a girl?”
Pa—
Yan Baitao slapped Yan Xiangma loudly across the face.
