Chapter 8

A WHOLE DAY Pa.s.sES

I turned my head and smiled at Yao Jinzi: “Is the lunch ready yet?” He frowned and replied gloomily “Jinfeng…”

“Oh”, understanding what he meant, I beckoned Xiao Lu and ordered, “We will have lunch in the study. Ask Hong Feng to bring in Yao Jinfeng”.

Xiao Lu was very enthusiastic about running errands and, quite naturally, happy to go. I turned towards Yao Jinzi: “What exactly is Hong Feng’s status?”

Although my beautiful boy wants to maintain a slightly aloof look, he could not help but retort in an astonished manner: “Did you even forget her?”

“Is she someone important to me?”

“That yatou is your tongfang and she is in charge of the big and medium affairs in the residence.” The youth adopted a cold face once again.

*Gasp*, a tongfang? Heck, this Zhang Qinglian is a bis.e.xual? “Then what about the fat and thin pair who were here a moment ago?”

The delicate and pretty face face gradually contorted to show a disdainful expression,”So called Su-pair [C/N: tentative]. They are just people of Wulin with high skill in martial arts whom you managed to recruit”

“How many of your moves can they meet?” Modern people are full of endless curiosity about marial artist characters that only exist in Jin Yong‘s writings. The beautiful teenager thought about it slightly: “When you sent people to chase me down, at that time, Zhu Xianxi partic.i.p.ated . We faced off and he was able to match 20 moves with me. Tian Chun is a laughing tiger [C/N: 是笑面虎 person with a kind face but vicious heart], his moves are hard to deal with. He could match around 30 moves but it was two years ago. In the past two years, my martial arts have degraded. It is necessary to train for around  three to four months before I can recover to my previous strength. However, they have probably practiced some unique skill by now, and it is difficult to say who is weak and who is strong.”

As he spoke, he did not make any eye contact with me. His tone was subtle and although there was no hatred apparent in his speech, I knew he blamed me for it.

I restrained myself from peeking at his visage, put on an indifferent expression and sat on the chair. Hey, it’s not me who did these vicious things, why should I feel guilty?

Hong Feng pushed aside the curtain screen and entered followed by several yatous in tow carrying lunch boxes and finally, a big man holding Yao Jinfeng. The young boy was kicking and spewing insults as if he was still a young master. Looking at his pretty face, it was indeed quite pitiful.

I don’t know why but upon seeing him my mood became lightened and my subordinates relaxed. Yao Jinzi rushed over like a gush of wind. Before I could clearly are what happened, he arrived in front of the big man and s.n.a.t.c.hed Yao Jinfeng from him. After seizing him, he inspected thoroughly from top to bottom to check for injuries. The former also

took the latter’s pulse just in case. My heart felt lighter. I realized that Yao Jinfeng was his older brother”s life gate, and as long as I had him, I had the confidence to deal with Yao Jinzi. Ever since Yao Jinzi was out of his predicament, I have been facing a martial artist who hated me enough to kill. Even though I kept saying that I did not feel anxious, jealous or scared of him, it was simply to deceive people. But now the situation was truly in my grasp.

Yao Jinzi continued to investigate. He probably found nothing, but still glanced at me with eyes full of hatred. I gave him a bright and innocent smile which only infuriated him even more. “Darling” I said lazily, “Don’t rack your brains over nothing. You can easily use your zhenqi to a.n.a.lyse him. after all when there is a fire there will be smoke?”Why is he getting so worked up?

[C/N: the above part was hard to make sense of. Maybe some chinese idiom. Hate it when those come up]

Seeing that he was about to get angry, I hastily comforted him and said, “But, you should not worry, as long as you fulfill our agreement, I will definitely keep him from harm.” Although Yao Jinzi was indignant, he reluctantly let go of the child’s wrist. Only now did the stinky brat realized what happened.

“Brother!” he excitedly shouted, “Are you recovering your martial arts?” He was really surprised .He could not believe it, and felt quite stupid.

“Wow…” the little brat was indeed just a kid. He hugged his brother and buried his head into his brother’s torso, and cried in an even more earth shattering sound. Yao Jinzi did not mind his tears, and excitedly held the clingy Yao Jinfeng.

Bored, I shoot a look towards Hong Feng. Hong Feng’s eyes looked downwards, not giving any indication of her thoughts. Xiao Lu was observing Yao Jinfeng with eyes full of curiosity.

Suddenly, the little brat shouted with a gritted voice:”Brother, since you have recovered your Wugong [C/N: martial arts], what are you waiting for? Quickly kill this wicked thief and avenge our father!” As usual, even though his face looked haggard and tear-stained, he kept running his mouth off against me. Unexpectedly, finding no response from his brother, the little brat grew anxious:” Brother, Brother, what’s wrong with you? This man killed our father and bullied you! He is our enemy! Kill him! …Brother, why are you not speaking, why? Did he feed you something strange?”

Ahem, I am not that bad…

Yao Jinzi looked down at his brother. His face looked extremely complicated, struggling, full of agony, he opened his mouth to speak,but hesitated…

I caressed my chin playfully and appreciated my boy’s struggling emotions.[C/N: total s.a.d.i.s.t] “Brother-” The brat doesn’t put a lid on his volume .

“…Jinfeng”, Yao Jinzi’s voice was hoa.r.s.e and deep, perhaps because they withheld too many feelings, it sounded astringent and dry. From my

my viewpoint, I can see his long beautiful eyelashes hanging and blocking his sight. “Now…I can’t kill him yet.” “What?!” The little brat immediately acted as if he was struck by lightning.”Why? Elder brother! His face became panic striken and looked terrified as he took a step backwards.”Don’t tell me you surrendered to him?” His naive words and silly deeds would be ignored by others, but they were absolutely lethal to his brother who was like a treasure to him. My beautiful boy’s face looked as if he had been stabbed by a knife.
