Chapter 737 (1/2)

“Again? Again with the questions? How much time do you people have to waste?” said Ye Lang with a frown.

For Ye Lang, it was as if everytime he returned he was bound to be interrogated, and these questions seemed to be as pointless as they could get.

Naturally, if Long Anqi were to ask, as her son, he would surely be expected to reply to all her enquiries!

At that moment, it appeared that there were more than just his parents in attendance, all presumably awaiting the answers to mindless questions targeted at him as usual, which unsurprisingly left him rather displeased.

“Well someone here clearly has a lot of time on their hands, and it’s none of us sitting here. Why’d we interrogate you if you little rascal didn’t create a ruckus with everything you touch! Now answer me!” Long Anqi was blunt as she demanded, unaffected by Ye Lang’s dissatisfaction, maybe to avoid further criticism from the townsfolk in attendance.

Regardless, even if she had not taken action to clarify his actions, the townsfolk were not there to place blame on Ye Lang.They knew his personality well, and they could ask anyone else who’d been to Vast Moon Lake.

“Alright alright, go ahead, but make it quick. I don’t have much time for pointless questions!” Ye Lang made himself clear.

“……”

Pointless questions? Would it still be pointless when so many sat and waited for the answers he could offer?

Yet the kid had very distinct standards for what was worth his time, and these important questions were unquestionably not!

“What did you do at Vast Moon Lake?”

That was a crucial question to everyone, but it was immensely boring and dimwitted to Ye Lang.

“Ugh, stupid, stupid questions. You want answers? Seventh Brother is here to answer them all in my place, he knows everything you need to know about the Vast Moon Lake. Keep any other questions to yourself” Ye Lang finished his sentence and left towards his room, as sudden and abrupt as he appeared.

“...” The crowd was left in utter silence. They didn’t wait so long for the kid to leave so abruptly before answering any questions.

Well this sucks!

“Alright folks, I am well informed to answer any questions you have, and the things I don’t already know, there’s no chance you’re going to get a reply anyway. I’m ready to clear all your doubts now.”

Seventh Brother’s voice resonated through the hall. Public speaking was his top interest after all, it was an activity he welcomed with open arms.

Since the previous incident, Seventh Brother, who had gotten updates from Third Brother, had instinctively acted to shield Ye Lang from the meticulous interrogation and suspicion of the family while he pursued what he intended to do.

To avoid misunderstandings, they tried their best to distance Ye Lang from curious people.

Ye Lang originally tried his best to evade their interrogation in hopes of keeping his true intention under wraps, especially when he already gave ample explanation the first time. It had taken a lot of convincing for Seventh Brother and the rest to believe him.

Regardless, Seventh Brother was not as easily tricked as Ye Lang hoped. From the items tha Ye Lang had gathered, Seventh Brother knew for a fact that the ‘paradise on earth’ setup was not Ye Lang’s true intention.

But seeing how Ye Lang was not keen to tell, Seventh Brother decided to stop pestering him for answers, and chose to instead trust the process and believe it was for a good cause.
