C127 The adorable Xi Ying (1/2)
”Today is November 8th. On behalf of your family, friends and those who love or love you, I wish you a happy birthday, Comrade Xi Yan!”
”That was forty years ago,” the old man recalled. ”At that time, we were both still young, and Jian Hun's broken sword was still not Jian Hun. I'm friends with him, but I'm more like an enemy. When we're together, we're talking about craftsmanship. Of course, he's almost always the winner of the discussion. ”
The old man in the evening remembered that his youth was always a bit long-winded, but Chang Jing and Yue Yang still listened quietly, just like a pair of children listening to their grandfather's story, patient and interested.
”One day, my unyielding heart began to swell, and I put forward a wager. Talking about military matters on paper is not something a hero should do. As we are all young, we don't think too much about things. Therefore, our bet is for the loser to sell the winner a lifetime's worth of swords, unless the winner voluntarily requests the loser to cancel the bet! I forgot to tell you, I am the second descendant of the Chu Clan. ”
”Do you have any bets later?” Ka Buyi asked.
The old man chuckled and took the ”Rose's Kiss” from Chang Jing's hands, and said while stroking it: ”Of course! Later on, I lost, because of this short sword that was not even two feet tall. ”
The following matter was very clear. The old man, Chu Yi, had followed the bet and ran to the capital of the Ara. From then on, he had hidden his name and took over the Family's branch in the capital.
”You seem to be slightly dissatisfied with your grandfather, right?” Chu Yi saw Chang Jing's sullen look and said, ”That era's promise was above all else, he was indeed my true friend, seeing that I had lost, I knew it was useless to try to persuade him, so we decided to send him off with a banquet. We did not say anything during the banquet, and only blamed the hot-blooded him for being too impulsive.”
”Then since then, grandpa, have you always been here?” Chang Jing could not help but feel that this kind of man was worthy of the respect of anyone.
”Well, what have I to say now that things have come to this? Although he missed his home dearly, there were some things that were more important than his life. ”Old parents probably won't be able to hold on for more than a few years …”
Tears welled up in his eyes. Two drops of tears fell from the Hero's eyes.
”Old grandpa, grandpa wants me to tell you that your bet ends now.” Chang Jing told a white lie, ”When I came, he said that she regretted it the most in his life because she impulsively made that bet with you, causing it to delay you for your entire life!”
”Hur hur, it's all in the past now.” Hearing Chang Jing's words, Chu Yu became even calmer and said, ”Now that the young people belong to this world, what are you talking about? But young people, remember, do not be impulsive when you do things! ”
The three of them chatted, completely oblivious to the large group of people that had just arrived.
”Geezer, are you going to do the business or not?” An impolite remark was uttered by a servant who was dressed like a servant.
Chu Yi frowned, but quickly revealed a smile and said to Chang Jing and Luo Li in a low voice, ”You two sit down first, I will go and greet them.”
With that, he got up and walked over, chuckling as he said, ”The store is wide open. I naturally have to do this business.”
A beautiful young man dressed in brocade clothes smiled and said, ”Since you want to do this business, it will be easy to handle. Someone, help me bring that 'Rose's Kiss' over, Miss Xi Ying will definitely like it a lot. ”
After everyone heard this, they all rushed into the shop together. However, they finally realized that they didn't recognize this so-called ”Rose's Kiss.”
”Old man, where's the sword? Give it to my young master!”
”Old man, be quick about it if you don't want to get dragged into this mess. Our young master is not a pushover!”
”I'm really sorry,” Chu Yi said slowly, with a professional smile on his face. ”The 'Rose's Kiss' is not for sale, and just now, this old one had already returned it to its original owner.”
