Chapter 38: Xiao Lu (2/2)
“I like it, I Love it!” Ning Xue’s tiny body lied on top of the bed, she felt so comfortable that she almost didn’t want to move, this was the first time she had completely relaxed after accumulating a lot of fatigue while they were traveling, her whole body wanted her to sleep: “Brother, I want to sleep, hold me……”
Wu Chen took off her shoes, exposing her jade like little feet. At the same time, he kicked off his own shoes, lied on the bed and embraced Ning Xue, he gently sighed, his whole body was exhausted. These days, he was really tired. Not only because of the journey, but because his heart were also full of hesitation. He didn’t in the past, but since he appeared in this strange world, how could he truly calm down.
“Xue’ er, we have a home.” He closed his eyes and whispered.
“yeah……” Ning Xue answered sleepily.
“Xue’er, do you think I should continue pretending to be sickly? Or should I pretend to be a bossy young master?”
“As long as it’s brother…… Xue’er likes it. But, Xue’er doesn’t think brother should get sick……”
“Ah, since Xue’er doesn’t think so…… then I’ll make it widely known…… my character, it’s really hard for me to endure.”
“……”
“Ning Xue’s nose moved lightly and her breathing became constant, she had already fallen asleep.
“Fame, silence is a hundred times more difficult to endure, even though this is a strange world, but how can I remain a nobody? Since fate sent me here, then before I leave, I’ll make the entire Tian Chen continentremember my name!”
“Little master of the Ye family, you had been despised by too many people, now let me justify your identity for you. If you’re under the nine springs, you can thank or hate me from there.”
He had a self-confident smile on his lips, he erased all of his distracting thoughts and gradually fell asleep. He felt as though his blood destined him to be a lonely man throughout his life.
………………..
“Young master, the madam is calling you to eat dinner.”
It was afternoon, a girl’s gentle voice woke him from his sleep, Ye Wu Chen opened his eyes and quietly got up, he nodded at Xiao Lu to retire, and then he gently shook Ning Xue to wake her up.
He didn’t know how long they had slept, the sky outside was already a bit dark, so it should already be after dusk. Ye Wu Chen led Ning Xue, and let Xiao Lu bring them to an excessively luxurious dining room.
On that evening, the cloud of gloom that hung over the Ye family had finally disappeared, and they welcomed his return with a “reunion dinner”, of course, this “reunion dinner” was a custom of Ye Shui Yao, many people were only engrossed in eating, such as Ning Xue and Ye Wu Yun.
The mood on the dining table was surprisingly friendly, “The whole family” felt joyous and harmonious, every face had various forms of laughter. Even though Ye Wu Chen still didn’t call them his parents, but they were still very respectful, and acting as a very promising son, Ye Wu Yun also greeted him with a smile, as if the slapping incident never happened at noon. Ye Wu Yun were still acting as if he were peaceful and gentle, he was very intimate with everybody, and he was even a bit humble, he seemed as though he completely didn’t care about that slap on the face.
The most frightening thing wasn’t a mad dog, but a dog that still wouldn’t bark even if it had been beaten with a stick. Ye Wu Chen’s eyes were half narrowed as he looked towards Ye Wu Yun, but Ye Wu Yun just had a smile on his face. Suddenly, Ye Wu Yun’s smiling expression became completely frozen, because in an instant, Ye Wu Chen’s gaze made him feel as if he were looking at an extremely poisonous snake. But after that instant, that feeling completely disappeared. He became startled for a moment, but he thought that he was just hallucinating.
