Chapter 0020 ‘Viper’ appeared
Jianghe city, in the garden of a villa.
Chen Yifeng leisurely lied down on a couch. Through the transparent glass in front of him, he was enjoying the scenery outside the window. The current, handsome face of his, occasionally flashing some grins. Compared to his pathetic appearance when he was with Chen Yiran and Su Hao, they seemed to be two completely different people.
Hua—
The door of the living room silently opened. An old housekeeper slowly and quietly entered, walked to the side of Chen Yifeng, and respectfully him handed a letter.
“Young master, a letter.”
“Owh, what era is this? Surprisingly there’s still someone who uses this.”
Chen Yifeng took the ancient envelope with great interest. When he opened the letter to have a look, his facial expression instantly turned grave. “Viper! Surprisingly, that bastard has come back!”
Even the expression of the old housekeeper changed. Being in Jianghe city for an unknown number of years, of course he knew who this Viper was!
One year, Chen Yifeng had him as a strong rival. Those two could’ve been considered evenly matched. In the end, Chen Yifeng managed to win against him by a slim margin and successfully became number one; became the legendary one.
Ironically, this era was like that.
Although Chen Yifeng was only stronger than Viper by a tiny bit, and while both were admitted into Zhangzheng college, people always remember the first one. Viper had long ago been forgotten from the back of their heads.
However, only those who experienced facing Viper would know how scary Viper was.
That old housekeeper had witnessed that year, how Chen Yifeng looked miserable and almost grew white hair. After both entered Zhanzheng college, they walked in different directions and never intersected again.
Is Viper’s strength monstrous?
No!
His origin ability was not a combat level origin ability but a neglected, yet fearful one: C-grade material analysis. This ability allows him to separate and analyze each element in a material.
Thus, by relying on this ability, Viper became a fearful pharmacist. Even to the extend that later on, the drug association had officially marked material analysis as ‘The best origin ability to be a pharmacist’. After entering Xingkong college, Viper improved by leaps and bounds in the drug field, and eventually the origin ability organisation upgraded his ability from C-grade to B-grade.
Is this what Viper is strong at?
No, you’re wrong! Viper’s strongest point was not his drug talent but his heart; his never ending schemes! Any person with an origin ability with the word ‘analysis’ would have a cunning heart!
Viper specializes in scheming behind the scenes, like in a game of chess. It’s also due to this that others call him Viper.
“What did that bastard come back here for this time?”
Chen Yifeng got up on his feet with a grave expression on his face. “It shouldn’t be for me. I should’ve left this place earlier, but didn’t due to some matters delaying me. I didn’t expect this guy to come back here and cross paths with me.”
“Could it be because of second Miss’s matter?” The old housekeeper said.
Chen Yifeng was silent and pondered for a moment. “Call Yiran here. I have something to tell her.”
“Yes.” The old housekeeper excused himself and went upstairs to get Chen Yiran and invited her down.
Chen Yiran went down while wearing her pyjamas, a bit confused. It was very obvious that she had already been sleeping for some time now. “Bro, this late at night, is there anything?”
Chen Yifeng replied in a soft tone, “In this short period of time, you and Su Hao shall not meet again.”
“En?”
Chen Yiran was shocked and instantly awaked, “What, what’s happening?”
“Viper is back.”
Chen Yiran was startled. Suddenly, she rose her head, “You mean, it’s because of me?”
Chen Yifeng nodded. “Viper values his family’s reputation the most. The matter about you and Su Hao, I’m afraid that he already knows about it. Don’t forget your own identity. Although I know you never care about it, but….”
Chen Yiran raised her eyebrows, “Su Hao and I are not in a relationship.”
“I know.” Chen Yifeng faintly said. “But others don’t see it that way. Since things have developed into such mess, I have some responsibility too. Su Hao, that kid isn’t bad. I have a very good impression in him. Viper might not dare touch you, but that doesn’t mean he won’t make a move on Su Hao. Thus, it would be better if you two didn’t meet from now on.”
“Alright!”
Chen Yiran nodded without any hesitation.
It didn’t matter for whom she was making the decision, but it was indeed the best choice. But it was such a pity, both of them were just starting to sprout out a tiny little flame. If this was to continue, it would definitely be enough to start a giant fire! However, now this little flame was completely extinguished!
Viper, such a name could bring fear to people. People only remembered the name Viper, but not even a single person knew his true name – Sun Yaohui!
In front of a villa.
“Ding, dong-”
The doorbell rang. Sun Yaotian was surprised when he came out to see a young man casually standing in front of the gate while carrying a military bag. “Bro, you came back.”
“Pa!”
