Chapter 242.1: Spider Web (1/2)
“What? Ye Chuan knelt outside the whole night?” Tang Doudou was astounded and slapped herself remorsefully. Yesterday she had been thinking about Tian Weishi’s matter the entire day and forgot to tell Baili Yu to allow Ye Chuan to stand up.
That guy was seriously too much as well! Baili Yu didn’t even say that he wanted to punish him ah!
So why did he punish himself by kneeling outside the entire night!?
Meng Yu’s face was dyed suspiciously red and she was wringing her apron as she spoke. “Doudou, Ye Chuan’s just very stubborn sometimes, he’s not really a bad person. If he offended you somehow, it definitely wasn’t on purpose…”
Tang Doudou glanced at Meng Yu, then looked her up and down. Folding her arms, she said, “Tss, Meng Yu ah.”
Meng Yu had been immersed thinking about the Ye Chuan that she knew. When Tang Doudou suddenly called her, she looked up in panic. “I-I…”
“Alright, I know!” Tang Doudou dusted off her hands as she watched this foolish girl. “Let’s go! Let’s go find Baili Yu.”
When Meng Yu heard this, she knew that there was hope and hastily thanked her. “Doudou, thank you so much!”
“Why are you thanking me? It’s not like I’m doing anything for you…” Tang Doudou narrowed her eyes. When she saw that Meng Yu’s face was getting redder, she drew closer to her and asked quietly, “Meng Yu, tell me honestly ah. You like Ye Chuan, don’t you?”
“I-I…” Meng Yu immediately started panicking since her secret thoughts had been exposed. “I still have things to do, so I’ll leave first. Doudou, don’t forget to go and say, say…”
However, she ran off before she even finished saying what she wanted Tang Doudou to say.
“Pfff!” Qing Yu laughed. “Now everyone knows that Meng Yu likes Ye Chuan.”
“Then, does Ye Chuan know too?”
Qing Yu covered her mouth and giggled. “That person’s a blockhead.”
Tang Doudou grinned. That was right, Ye Chuan was a blockhead, and a fool to boot!
Da fudge? No one was punishing him, yet he just foolishly knelt there for an entire day!
“Let’s go! Let’s go find your master.” Tang Doudou covered her forehead, feeling a little exasperated. Baili Yu was also troublesome. Since everything had already been cleared up, why did he still punish Ye Chuan?
She was just about to go to find Baili Yu when someone knocked on the door.
“Qing Yu, go see who’s it is. It couldn’t be another one of Ye Chuan’s admirers, right?” said Tang Doudou as she picked up the bundle that she had packed yesterday evening. She caught sight of the medical book that was still lying near the bed and reached out to grab it.
Right at this time, she heard Qing Yu remark in a surprised tone, “Ye Chuan? Aren’t you…”
“Are you done packing yet? If you are, then hurry up and head over, we’re about to set off.” Ye Chuan’s voice was still very hoarse. After briefly explaining the purpose of his visit, he turned and left.
Qing Yu only turned around to speak after Ye Chuan walked away. “Lady, Ye Chuan seems a bit off!”
He had been like this for a while now… Tang Doudou rubbed her chin. Well, since Ye Chuan had already gotten up, then she didn’t have to look for Baili Yu anymore.
“Qing Yu, go tell Meng Yu that Ye Chuan has already gotten up so that she doesn’t worry anymore.”
“Then, what about you, Lady?”
“I want to go to Grandpa Tian’s room and look around again.” Tang Doudou put the medical book into the bundle, picked it up, and headed towards Tian Weishi’s room.
The small cottage’s interior was quite simple and very tidy. Some small bottles and jars were placed in the corner of the room. Tang Doudou crouched to pick up a small jar. Opening it, she took a sniff and found that it was handmade seasoning.
“Grandpa Tian’s truly amazing, as expected of a Godly Chef ah!” Tang Doudou glanced over those small jars. There seemed to be a hundred or so of them. If all of them were seasonings, that was seriously impressive.
Even her grandpa couldn’t make this many different seasonings.
Tang Doudou put the jar carefully back in its original place and looked around again. She felt a bit melancholic. She didn’t know when she would be able to come back after leaving this time. She didn’t even know if she would be able to meet Grandpa Tian again.
She heaved a sigh and was about to leave when she caught sight of the quilt folded neatly on the bed out of the corner of her eye. It looked like something was squeezed under the pillow.
Tang Doudou thought for a little bit and decided to hold back her curiosity to walk towards the door.
However, she stopped again. She should take a look after all! What if it contained news about Grandpa Tian’s children? Maybe she could help out… No matter what, she was still an Alliance Head…
