176 Are You a Time-traveler? (1/2)
Yang Yun did not give his answer right away. He stared at Xue Yi Ming for a long time, debating whether he could trust this man or not. After weeks of living under Xue Yi Ming care, Yang Yun could tell that he was someone who bore no ill intention towards others. However, Chief Ye's warning continued to run through his head: if he wanted to live, he should not trust others easily.
But Yang Yun also knew that he could not survive in this strange world without any help. He wandered on the street to look for Mingyue for days and understood that without Xue Yi Ming's help, it would be impossible for him to have shelter and food. This strange world was too complicated for him to understand.
”When did you find out?” Yang Yun asked. With this question, he had verified Xue Yi Ming's suspicion.
In the end, Yang Yun chose to trust Xue Yi Ming. Yang Yun believed that fate had brought him to meet Xue Yi Ming for a reason.
Xue Yi Ming's eyes went wide. He was expecting Yang Yun to deny and gave him thousands of excuses. But, he never expected that Yang Yun would quickly confirm his suspicions. Xue Yi Ming exchanged a glance with Li Ran and saw the excitement on his friend's face.

”Sister Mudan's sketches?” Looking at the dumbfounded face of the two men before him, Yang Yun made a guess.
Xue Yi Ming nodded.
”That could not be all. How did you know? What gives me away?”
”You acted carefully, but maybe too carefully. I thought the way you acted was strange,” Xue Yi Ming said. ”However, what ignited my suspicion was not you. It was from Lin Mingyue.”
Yang Yun frowned as he heard the name. ”Lin?”
Xue Yi Ming nodded. ”Your wife, she was adopted by General Lin and his wife years ago.”
”Lin Mingyue is really your wife?” Li Ran asked.
”We've married six years ago before she disappeared,” Yang Yun said.
”Shit!” Li Ran cursed. ”How old was she when she married?” He gave Yang Yun a look over and frowned. ”You don't look too old. How old are you when you married her?”
Yang Yun could sense a judgemental tone from Li Ran, but he still answered. ”Six years ago, she was sixteen, and I was nineteen.”
Li Ran leaned forward and adjusted his glasses. ”Is that even legal?”
Yang Yun frowned at his question. ”What do you mean?”
”Hey, hey,” Noticing Yang Yun's change of expression, Xue Yi Ming held up a hand. He turned to Li Ran and said, ”Let's not forget. Different times, different customs. He's not from here, remember?”
