Chapter 384: Liu Family
Seaside cottage.
Ye Cang led Lin Le and the others back to the Qin family at the capital. On the train, 6 of them were playing board games. On Lin Le’s way back from the washroom, he ran into the blond haired sunglasses man. After freezing for a moment, he shouted, “Brother Lil’White! Brother Lil’White! This guy looks so familiar!”
Ye Cang and Zhang ZhengXiong got up and walked over. Ye Cang instantly recognized him. “It’s that Ji Xiao guy. Come, come play with us. Last time, he even treated me to a meal at the Vermillion Bird District night market…”
“Alright. Since he’s treated Brother Lil’White to a meal, he’s a friend. Come sit with us~” Lin Le said friendlily.
Ji Xiao’s originally nervous and startled heart relaxed. He was afraid that these guys would gang up on him again. He was planning to refuse their invitation, but changed his mind thinking that he shouldn’t ruin their relationship, at least while they were on the train. He walked over and saw Really New Village’s Three Brothers and FrozenCloud, but who was that man by the window? He shook his head and greeted them one by one. Conveniently, he took over FrozenCloud’s spot to play with them. Speaking of FrozenCloud, when he used to visit the capital in the past, he had played with her a few times before. They could be said to have a bit of a friendship. Even though he said they played together, it was mostly him being bullied by her sister. He was naive and innocent back then. He used to think they were playing together, but thinking back, it was clearly bullying. When he sat down to play, his draws were fairly lucky, allowing him to play some big moves which provoked the others. “You should know, I’ve never once tasted defeat in this game…”
Ye Cang, Lin Le, and Zhang ZhengXiong’s mood began to worsen. As the game went on, Ji Xiao began to get more carried away. He flung out another big move and wagged his finger. “I win. Tch tch, you’re still too weak…”
FrozenCloud saw Ye Cang slightly nodded towards Lin Le and Zhang ZhengXiong. All three of them made ‘good-willed smiles’. She immediately broke out in cold sweat. That Ji Xiao guy was definitely screwed.
Ji Xiao saw those smiles that were just like last time, and he instantly turned, intending to run. But before he could, Zhang ZhengXiong’s big hand reached out and pressed down on his shoulder, forcing him back to his seat.
Capital, train station.
Since MistyVeil was strolling near the train station, she figured she might as well go and pick up that kid since she wasn’t busy anyways. She found him with a sign hanging off his neck which just happened to cover up the completely naked Ji Xiao. He was scowling miserably, the words ‘I shouldn’t show off. I shouldn’t play big moves and ruin the mood. Sorry…’ were written on it.
“……” MistyVeil quickly took off her jacket and threw it over him, then let him on her car.
“Him again?” MistyVeil was dumbfounded.
Ji Xiao indignantly explained the course of events. MistyVeil sighed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. It was all a bunch of nonsense. She was just about to start the car when she saw Ye Cang’s eye-catching hair. He had come out from the other side. SpyingBlade was also somewhat dumbfounded at what just happened. To go so far just to mess with someone…
MistyVeil looked at SpyingBlade, her pupils faintly shrank. It’s him! DarkBlade, the one who had taught her the most bitter lesson. Losing to FlameEmperor or any of the Heavenly Kings was normal, but not that fight against Falling Star where she had been too arrogant and thus, underestimated that rookie. No one had paid any attention to him, but he had been able to assassinate her…
“FrozenCloud!” MistyVeil called out.
“Who’s FrozenCloud? Sounds sort of familiar.” Ye Cang looked around.
“It’s me!” FrozenCloud shouted grumpily.
“Oh, so it’s Lil’Dino…” Ye Cang replied seriously. Lin Le furrowed his brows. “Lil’Dino, when did you get that nickname…”
Dammit! I was always FrozenCloud! Since the time I first introduced myself!! Lil’Dino is just the nickname you gave me because you thought I was a dinosaur! Hey! It can’t be that you all forgot Lil’Dino was a nickname!? FrozenCloud thought to herself, extremely speechless.
