Chapter 335 Paying A Visit
Ou Yangming entered the courtyard sullen but stopped all of a sudden when he noticed a hateful person in the courtyard.
Bai s.h.i.+xue, the witch, was sitting on her original spot and looking apologetically at the young fellow. Yes. The young lady looked deeply apologetic, but from Ou Yangming’s perspective, her apology was equivalent to mockery. Ou Yangming flashed to the front of Bai s.h.i.+xue at the speed of light and reached out for her without any hesitation. Nonetheless, the young pavilion master did not intend to dodge at all. On top of that, tears could be vaguely seen at the corners of her eyes as though she was wronged.
The young fellow was furious, but he could not bring himself to attack the pitiful Bai s.h.i.+xue.
He was not pedantic, but he was also not one to harm a beauty.
After all, the unhappy misfortune did not cost any lives. Besides, other people were probably itching to be in his place instead. “Young Pavilion Master, please give me the Recording Stone.” Ou Yangming sighed and thought, ‘Lil’ witch, I’m not going to deal with you anymore!’
“Master Ou, didn’t I leave the Recording Stone for you already?” Bai s.h.i.+xue pouted her
lips.
“That Recording Stone only stored half of what I said. Where did my last sentence go?” Ou Yangming glared at her. Although only a sentence was missing, the entire meaning became different.
Bai s.h.i.+xue spread out her hands and noted helplessly, “Master Ou, I had insufficient essential Qi when I used the Recording Stone, so I only managed to retain that many words.”
‘I’d be a fool if I trust you!’ Ou Yangming rolled his eyes. Nevertheless, he suddenly realized that he did not have many ideas to go against Bai s.h.i.+xue, who was obviously going to act shamelessly.
Bai s.h.i.+xue picked up a cup of fragrant tea from the stone table and said, “Master Ou, I know it was my fault. Please forgive me this time.”
“Young Pavilion Master, you’re being too polite. I dare not receive your apology!” Ou Yangming responded snappily. He had decided to stay away from the young lady from then on.
‘Since I can’t afford to provoke you, do you think I can’t avoid you…’
Following that, Ou Yangming turned around and flapped his sleeves as he returned to the house. No matter how Bai s.h.i.+xue called out to him, he simply ignored her.
Bai s.h.i.+xue had a strange look on her face when she watched Ou Yangming return to the house angrily. She sighed and thought, ‘I was deliberately trying to leave a deep impression for him, but a strange accident let Wu Hanning benefit from it instead.
‘I guess my fate was unfavorable, but n.o.body knows who will be victorious until we’re at the very end…’
The next morning, Ou Yangming woke up early and informed the servants that he was going to visit the Woo family.
He was still staying in the courtyard provided by the Yi Pavilion. The young fellow was displeased with the little witch’s actions and was afraid of her, but the other people might imagine things if he left at this moment. In order to not draw attention, it was inappropriate for him to move out during this sensitive period. Once he gave the order, a luxurious carriage arrived at his courtyard.
Ou Yangming could not help but hesitate before he entered the carriage. He somehow developed a phobia of carriages after yesterday’s misunderstanding.
Despite that, it would be discourteous for him to walk to the Woo residence given his status now.
He shook his head and cast those thoughts aside, then he entered the carriage and traveled on the main road.
Ou Yangming curbed his thought as soon as the carriage stopped, and he forced a smile on his face. Just as he was going to open the curtain, thunderous roars were heard outside the carriage. “Welcome, consort!”
The smile on his face froze, and his hand stopped in mid-air.
He was so enraged at that moment that he wanted to leave immediately.
Soon enough, the curtain was opened, but it was the coachman who opened it. Ou Yangming took a deep breath and left the carriage with a gloomy face.
A ma.s.sive luxurious residence came into view. When the door was opened, two rows of strong and courageous men stood like javelins. It was evident that the men were the ones who shouted earlier.
Ou Yangming was vexed, but before he could express it, another voice was heard coming from inside the residence.
“Brother Ou, you’re finally here. I’ve been anxiously waiting for your arrival!” Woo Lejia walked out with a bright smile. A formidable momentum surged when he walked out majestically, unknowingly making the other people feel inferior.
This was the momentum of a Supreme Great Ancestor. If one had ulterior motives, one’s true nature would be unmasked right away.
Needless to say, it was also because Woo Lejia had just become a great ancestor. He had stabilized his boundary but had not fully grasped his momentum. If that was not the case, he could easily act like an ordinary person if he wanted to and not release any unusual auras.
That would be the perfect depiction of going back to basics.
“Brother Woo, how can you personally welcome me? I don’t deserve the honor.” Ou Yangming laughed and cupped his hands.
“I owe my achievement to you, Brother Ou. If one of us is undeserving of the honor, it should be me.” Woo Lejia waved his hand hard, then he turned sideways and said, “Please come in for some tea.”
Ou Yangming nodded and followed Woo Lejia through the door.
