Chapter 823 - A Motley Crew (1/2)

Ye Jian looked at the time on the wall clock. It was almost time to leave.

Today was the day of her duel with Luo Ran. Now, she needed to go to the back alley of the pub to meet him.

Amidst the happy voices singing “happy birthday”, Ye Jian found w.a.n.g Jin accurately and came beside him. She whispered, “I have some things to do so I need to leave for a moment. I’ll come back later.”

“Okay. I’ll leave a big piece of cake for you to rub on Yang Heng’s face.” w.a.n.g Jin didn’t know that Ye Jian was going out for a duel. He thought that she would be back in a short while so he didn’t ask her for any details. He was thinking about how to sneak an attack on Yang Heng later so he didn’t even notice when Ye Jian left.

Ye Jian took ten darts with her when she left. She realized that this… was quite suitable to use as a weapon.

After the lights lit up and the cake was cut, no one ate the cake. Everyone started playing with their cakes by rubbing it on other people’s faces.

Yang Heng was in the worst state. Even his eyebrows were stained with cake.

“Ye Jian left? Did she say where she was going? Why didn’t you ask her to stay and wait for me to go over first?” When Yang Heng heard what w.a.n.g Jin said, he frowned. A piece of cream even dropped down his eyebrows when he frowned. After he asked this question, he realized that he said the wrong thing. He patted w.a.n.g Jin’s shoulder and continued before w.a.n.g Jin could reply, “I was a little anxious, sorry.”

w.a.n.g Jin replied hurriedly, “It’s alright. I know you well. Since a young lady said that she needed to leave for a little while, I didn’t probe further. She said that she will come back in a while.”

No one knows when she will come back.

How long was a while? Ye Jian didn’t say so no one knew the answer.
