185 Close One (2/2)
”Oh, really? Even someone like you needs capable people?” Ming Kui said in low tone.
”The number of talented people in the world is many, my dear brother. How do you expect to find them all?” Yan smirked.
Hidden dragon, hidden capable people, how many of them in the world? Even Yan didn't know and he only said that it was a coincidence that he got one of them thus he puts that person close to him.
In another sense, he was talking about himself. Do you know how many talented people there is? Even if he were to appear before him, the other party would not necessarily know that since he acted as a fool.
Ming Kui thinks of Yan words. As a member of imperial family, he didn't think that Yan would be simple. Allowing himself to be known as a troublemaker in the whole capital, what would he expect? That way, he had simply destroyed his chance on getting the throne. Although he felt it weirder for their father to let the other party goes all these times.
”You must have a good fortune then.”
Yan grinned. ”If you were not so busy and strolled on the streets, perhaps you can stumble with extraordinary person.”
In truth, how much is the chance for meeting such a people? How can they simply walk on the streets and somehow encounter an expert who wanted to follow them? That was simply ridiculous.
But, knowing Yan from a long time ago, even an idiot would knows that this is a prince that rarely works. He would dump his works on other people to play on the streets or simply wasting money on that restaurant. (No one know that he is the one who owns it)
He was truly a weirdo from imperial family, but the emperor let him be since he would not make any major trouble except that flooding event. Besides, he would not kill his own son or daughter easily without reason which enables Yan to go anywhere freely.
The other two also didn't pay much attention to the laidback prince and focused more on building their faction. It didn't take long before Yan was not considered an opponent for them anymore.
”You must be joking, how can you be that lucky?”
”Oh, but I do stumble on that young general.”
Ming Kui felt like he's wasting his time talking with this person whose brain didn't seem to work well. That young general probably means Soujin and Jun Min. He did meet Soujin coincidentally on the palace and got into the fight with the other party. As for Jun Min, that was Soujin who introduce him, that shouldn't have been a 'coincidence'.
”The night is long. I will be going first.”
Yan looks towards the departing back of Ming Kui. He wiped off his sweats, somehow he felt that he had just escaped a truly deadly situation.
”Ck, it seemed that I need to learn more self control. If something were to happen again…”
Yan dispersed that thought. This time he's lucky, but he's not sure that Ming Kui would be easily fooled. That guy would surely come back and looks for him again, especially now that he had someone so sharp by his side. Yan felt that he needed to hurriedly go away from the capital.
