Chapter 520 (2/2)
Just Coldblood Five alone, her being the best assassin in the world, could murder Li Yan without anyone noticing. There would be no trace of him left.
“Brother, you should stop talking, the Li family cannot afford to be embarrassed anymore!” scoffed Li Yue coldly. She had noticed many people listening in again, eager to watch this joke unfold.
And they got what they wanted, they witnessed Li Yan shoot himself in the foot!
From what just happened, Li Yue’s impression of Ye Lang hadn’t worsened. Instead, Li Yan had made her like Ye Lang even more. She had a stronger urge to defend him now.
It was true Ye Lang wasn’t at Romantic Floor to do anything shady anyway. His intentions had been pure, he was just there to look around and kick Li Yan out if he could since Li Yan had illegally taken his place.
The visit to Romantic Floor wasn’t any shady business in the first place, right now the story had instead turned Ye Lang into the hero while Li Yan was embarrassed out of his mind.
Ye Lang was the handsome hero who saved a girl from the monsters, he played the role everyone loved- especially the more emotional girls present.
“You… You… You fox, I’m leaving! You wait and see!” Li Yan had no dirt to dig up now. He could not fight Ye Lang physically, and he just lost an argument so now he could only sulk.
“Alright, leave then. Be careful, don’t slip!” said Ye Lang casually. If Tigress was here, she would’ve reminded him not to say such a thing because he sometimes ‘jinxed’ it.
“Slip?! How old do you think I am, three? I… Ah…” Li Yan was cursing when he stepped on a banana peel that appeared out of nowhere, then fell flat on his back. It was hilarious.
“...”
Their audience was stunned for a moment, though it was soon forgotten. They explained this away with a coincidence.
Very soon, Ye Lang found an opportunity to take a walk with Li Yue in the yard alone.
Li Yue did not want to stay inside either. They were mostly talking about Zhao Yarou’s birthday party. It was nothing related to her, all she had to do that day was show up.
“Mr Fox, what should I gift her?” Li Yue felt like Ye Lang must’ve been very confident to speak like that just now.
“It doesn’t matter what you gift her, you just have to give me the Tianji Armour,” waved Ye Lang. He didn’t have confidence in understanding Zhao Yarou, he had no idea what she liked but was sure she would not care. Gifts were nothing to her.
“Hey, I’m serious!” Li Yue blushed then said, “You still can’t get my dad or my brother to like you. We’ll talk when you get their approval!”
To Li Yue, giving Ye Lang the armour was the same as agreeing to marry him. Ye Lang asking her for it was the same as asking for her hand!
“What has this got to do with them? As long as you’re willing!” said Ye Lang, confused. He hadn’t understood what Li Yue was implying.
“Don’t you want my family’s approval?” huffed Li Yue. She’d only said that as a reminder but she hadn’t expected Ye Lang to turn it into a topic of conversation.
