Chapter 623 (1/2)

Don't Bully the Poor Man (2)

“I just said that the old man told me to do that. That didn’t mean that I wanted to,” said Ye Lang.

“What do you want then? Someone else?” asked Migen.

“No!” said Ye Lang bluntly.

That made everyone much more relieved. What they dreaded the most has passed, anything else he would request should be fine to them.

But Ye Lang’s bluntness left everyone with mixed feelings. It seemed that he didn’t even consider marrying them at all, which left everyone wondering why.

Why would a poor man like him not even think about marrying into a powerful family like them?

“Then it’s the three requests. We’ll be able to do anything you want,” said the head of the household immediately.

They made a guarantee then, with his words but here were limits to these requests that Ye Lang made. That meant if they couldn’t achieve what Ye Lang wanted, they wouldn't even do it.

The only thing was that these restrictions didn’t mean anything to Ye Lang because he didn’t even want anything.

“I don’t need it!” said Ye Lang.

The rest were dumbfounded. What did he just say? Not wanting to marry a lady of Ha De house was fine, they had expensive taste, it would be tough to have a poor husband for them.

But the requests, they could be anything. Wealth, power, women, anything.

Yet, Ye Lang didn’t want any of that. That was beyond everyone’s expectations.

“What?! You don’t need it?” asked the head of the household, a little agitated.

“Yes! I don’t need it! Ye Lang nodded.

“Do you need anything else?” asked the head of the household. He felt dumb when he asked that question.

“Nothing!” said Ye Lang.

“If you don’t need anything, why are you here?” asked Debbie.

“Dummy! I’m here to return the jade pendant, isn’t it obvious? Well, that’s done, I’m leaving. I’m a busy man,” said Ye Lang as he stood up. He grabbed a desert and shoved it into his mouth.

“Ye Lang, do you really not need anything?” asked Migen.

“Nope! The old man said a poor man should have dignity too!” said Ye Lang as he looked around his surroundings blankly.

His words took the listeners by surprise. They didn’t expect this, they just assumed that the poor would try to take advantage of this situation in any way they could.
