Chapter 500: He’s Escaped
“Pleasure to meet you too,” Ye Mo responded coolly.
Ye Liu pointed at Li Wazi next, “And this is our good friend, Li Wazi. He’s like family to us.”
Dongfang Ming just smiled, “Pleasure to meet you.”
Li Wazi merely nodded. Dongfang Ming seemed to be an easygoing person, one who would be nice to talk to.
“Brother Ye, are you all heading home?” Dongfang Ming asked. It had been several days since the last time he went to their place.
They could finally be rid of the pests today. The freeloaders had connived for too long.
Ye Liu nodded gleefully, “Yes, we’re going home, and we’re purchasing some tomatoes along the way.”
Ye Mo sized up Dongfang Ming. He didn’t like what he was seeing, as he found it unbelievable that this man was the boss Liu Duo had been working with.
Fine. He admitted that Dongfang Ming was quite handsome, and he seemed to be a gentle, courteous, and knowledgeable person. He wondered if his wife would take a liking to him.
“I’ll visit some other day, if you’ll kindly have me.”
“Sure, no problem. It’s an honour,” Ye Liu displayed his famous grin.
They talked for a bit longer before Dongfang Ming left with his men.
It was then that Ye Mo spoke in disdain, “What kind of man has such fair skin? He must be living off the women!”
Pffft, Ye Liu chortled.
Li Wazi responded, “But Ling’s quite fair too, isn’t he?”
Er…
Ye Mo had gotten himself into an awkward situation. Of course he knew Ye Ling had fair skin, but he was not talking about him at the moment. Li Wazi just had to miss the point.
As usual, Ye Xuan announced his arrival at their house. He would always show up under the pretense of tutoring Liu Ran whenever the boy was at home.
“Brother Xuan, you came! Please sit.”
Liu Ran was a zealous host. He would pour water for Ye Xuan and get him a stool. He knew that if it wasn’t for Ye Xuan, he would still be in the hands of Liu Qing, tied up.
Ye Xuan had earned an increasingly good name in his books.
Ye Xuan immersed himself in Liu Ran’s hospitality as he sat down on the stool and smiled, “Right, let’s get down to previous lessons and yesterday’s topic. Ask me anything you don’t know.”
Liu Duo returned from the outhouse. She spotted Ye Xuan and didn’t furrow her brow like she usually did.
As long as he was not trying anything, she supposed they could be friends. After all, he had helped a lot in regards to Liu Ran’s studies.
Suddenly two guards came to their door and knocked, “Is this home to Ye Yang and family?”
“Yes,” Liu Duo walked over.
“The suspect in your report has fled. We’re afraid he may come looking for you, for he must be on the run. We’ve come to alert you of this and urge you to act with caution when you leave the house.”
Liu Duo nodded to show she understood.
After that, the two guards left.
Ye Xuan furrowed his brow when he heard that. He hadn’t expected Liu Qing to have escaped.
He’d be held on more severe charges if he were caught. He wouldn’t get away with just two or three years.
“Sister-in-law, let me handle Ran Er from now on.”
“No need. I’ll be careful.”
She wasn’t a kid. She wasn’t afraid, even if Liu Qing sought revenge.
Liu Ran, on the other hand, furrowed his brow. He was quite worried.
When the men returned and saw Ye Xuan, none said anything except Ye Mo.
“Liu, the guards couldn’t catch Liu Qing. They advised us to stay alert when we leave the house,” Ye Xuan said sternly as he rephrased what the guards had told them earlier.
They all frowned.
