Chapter 507.2 - Farewell Party (Part Two)
Chapter 507: Farewell Party (Part Two)
“Back then, there was a master of brilliance. There were so many women that were madly infatuated with him, but there were also a few uglies trying to stir up trouble. But, they couldn’t beat that guy. In the end, if it wasn’t because that person decided to be single for the rest of his life, there wouldn’t be us in the following generation. So, still holding a grudge, those uglies never liked that flamboyant master, but they couldn’t beat him, even until the day he died. They could only bury the grudge deep inside their hearts. But now, the disciple of that master appeared, and those uglies felt that they could vent their anger out on the disciple. So, tomorrow’s banquet is a big trap.”
Xu Cheng was suddenly enlightened. “But wait, Uncle Pei, what do you mean there wouldn’t be you as the following generation.”
Ye Pei: “Tsk tsk, if that master was a big-time playboy, then would my mom have married my dad?”
Xu Cheng sighed. “So it turned out that my master was such a flamboyant master of brilliance. But how come I don’t find him handsome at all?”
Ye Pei: “Brat, sometimes women don’t just like you because you are handsome. Like you, you look so ordinary yet your wife is so pretty, it’s the same logic.”
Xu Cheng didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry.
Minister Ye said, “Just like me, I look handsome, but I don’t have enough to show off like you guys. Women are different, especially those from back then; they didn’t have too much education nor knowledge, and once they had a crush on someone, they would be pretty stubborn with their target for a long time. That was why Zhang Chenfeng got the first-mover advantage when he started showing his face everywhere after joining the army early. When he was already a superstar, I think my dad was still a bandit somewhere in the mountains.”
Xu Cheng nodded.
Ye Pei continued to say, “Even before my mom died, she took a sneak at Zhang Chenfeng’s photo. Sigh, women from that era, how should I put it? It’s like people nowadays fangirling over a big-time celebrity, it could only be described as horrifying.”
Xu Cheng saw the wounds on Minister Ye’s face and asked, “Uncle Pei, what happened to your face.”
Ye Pei immediately put a cold towel on the bruised part and said, “Nothing. I’ve really put my life on the line to warn you about tomorrow to thank you for the syringe you gave me. Just be careful tomorrow. My suggestion is to just ignore them. As they aged, I don’t see their power growing much, but their temper sure did.”
Then, he patted Xu Cheng on the shoulder and then slipped back into his own room.
Xu Cheng smiled. It turned out that there was such an interesting story from that generation. Looks like that old man Zhang Chenfeng didn’t lie to him. He was indeed a flamboyant master that robbed the hearts of many women.
– On the next day –
The old man saw Xu Cheng coming out to brush his teeth so he said to him, “Remember, the old restaurant, brat. You don’t have to come, but I will just take it as Zhang Chenfeng took in a disciple with no balls.”
Then, Elder Ye got onto the sedan with the red-flag in front and drove out of the manor.
Ye Xiu brushed his teeth as he said to Xu Cheng, “It’s really just a lie saying it was a farewell banquet for you. Many people are going to congratulate the five elders on their recovery, so it doesn’t really concern you much. You don’t have to go. Now that they all returned to their prime state, they haven’t been able to find a suitable person to spar with. Since you are the recognized number 1, they want to fight you. You saw last night as well, those guys are still like barbarians despite their old age, so I don’t recommend you going to the banquet.”
Xu Cheng: “Didn’t you hear what the old man said just now? I hate people saying that I have no balls.”
Ye Xiu mocked, “Pretty much. That day, she was so hot yet you didn’t do anything. You indeed have no balls.”
Xu Cheng smacked him on the head. “Two completely different situations!”
