Super Combat Soldier-Chapter 72 - 【How do you feel about her】
72: Chapter 72 【How do you feel about her?】
72 -72 【How do you feel about her?】
That evening, only Ye Tianchen, Ye Qianwen, and Luo Yan were dining at the table; as for Qi Ruxue, out of shyness, she hid away in her bedroom without coming out.
Both Luo Yan and Ye Qianwen had been to see her, and found Qi Ruxue sleeping on her bed.
At that time, in the bedroom on the bed, Qi Ruxue’s cheeks were still flushed.
Although several hours had passed and it was just a quick peck, in the eyes of many modern people, that was nothing worth mentioning.
Yet, for Qi Ruxue whose heart was pounding nonstop, it was her first kiss that had been taken by Ye Tianchen.
How could she not feel her heart racing and be somewhat angry?
Qi Ruxue had grown up overseas and only came back to her homeland after finishing her studies this year.
The engagement to Ye Tianchen was arranged by their families without her consent.
Hence the scene at Sea King Group, where Qi Ruxue refused to call off the engagement, unfolded.
She had not fallen for Ye Tianchen at first sight, but rather she didn’t want to be confined by her family.
She aimed to prove that she could make her own decisions and pursue her own lifelong happiness.
While abroad, she had many handsome guys and even noblemen pursue her, but not a single one could move her heart.
Those who sought her company either boasted of their family’s status with arrogance or were merely attracted to her beauty, wanting nothing more than a fling.
For any girl, especially a beautiful one, this was not a matter for joy but an insult, and that was also why Qi Ruxue returned to her homeland.
Since none of the young gentlemen chasing after her caught her fancy, Qi Ruxue had not had any close physical contact with anyone up to that point, not even a kiss or holding hands.
Little did she expect that her first kiss would be snatched away by Ye Tianchen, that super big villain, which was quite a laughable yet sad situation.
“Ye Tianchen, you big scoundrel, big jerk, dead scoundrel, I, Qi Ruxue, absolutely will not let you off easily,” Qi Ruxue gritted her tiny teeth with hatred.
Ye Tianchen was dining in the downstairs hall when he suddenly felt his ear getting hot; he glanced upstairs and guessed Qi Ruxue must be cursing him.
He originally wanted to secretly activate his superpower to sense the energy, but then thought better of it in his own home, as it didn’t seem very interesting and he had no desire to stoop to the level of a savage girl like Qi Ruxue.
“Brother, what’s up?
Scared that Ruxue might go hungry and thinking of personally delivering food to her?” observed Ye Qianwen jokingly as she saw her brother Ye Tianchen looking toward the upstairs of the villa.
“You little rascal, instead of focusing on your studies, why do you always meddle in these affairs?
Tell me, are you in love at school?
Spit it out now, or it’ll be worse for you once Mom and I find out,” quipped Ye Tianchen with a mischievous smile.
“What..
no way, I go to school and come back home on time every day, unlike you, who often come home late at night,” stammered Ye Qianwen, her face flushed as she quickly puffed up her adorable cheeks in defense.
“Really?
Is it truly not happening or are you pretending it’s not?
I’ll find out tomorrow when I visit your school…” Ye Tianchen smiled devilishly, pressing for answers.
“Mom, look at Brother, he’s bullying me!” Ye Qianwen, not expecting Ye Tianchen to pull this move, immediately turned to their mother for help.
Seeing that his sister Ye Qianwen finally knew fear, Ye Tianchen laughed even harder, feigning exasperation, “No way, it looks more like you’re the one bullying me.
Now you’re even seeking Mom’s help.
It seems you must have some news from school.”
“No, we were talking about you and Ruxue, and you changed the subject to pick on me.
That’s bullying, hmph, I’m not talking to you anymore!” Ye Qianwen pouted and turned her head away.
“Is that so?
Big Brother here is now very interested in your school affairs…” Ye Tianchen continued with a he-he of a laugh. freeweɓnovel.cøm
“Mom, look at Brother, he…” Ye Qianwen’s cheeks turned a bit red, and she urgently tugged at her mother Luo Yan’s arm.
“Alright, alright, Tianchen, I’ve always wanted to ask you, do you have any feelings for Ruxue?
If you do, then go after her.
Ruxue is a good girl; don’t overthink things.
If not, clarify things soon.
It’s not a solution for Ruxue to keep living in our house; after all, she’s an unmarried girl.
Plus, if the Qi family comes looking for her, it’ll be hard for us to explain, right?” Luo Yan looked earnestly at Ye Tianchen and asked.
“No, absolutely not, Mom, you’ve hit the nail on the head.
I’ve told you and my sister before, I have no feelings for Qi Ruxue, and she’s duping you guys.
She just doesn’t want to go home and get engaged to the Qin family, otherwise why would she stay with us?” Ye Tianchen hurriedly spoke up when Luo Yan seriously brought it up.
Luo Yan thought it over, and to be honest, deep down she really hoped Qi Ruxue could become her daughter-in-law.
From their time together, Luo Yan noticed that Qi Ruxue didn’t act like a pampered miss.
Whether working or chatting, she was easy-going, and as a careful and considerate girl who could grace a parlor or work in a kitchen, with her beauty, she truly was a rare find.
However, during this time, Luo Yan also noticed that her son, Ye Tianchen, apparently had no real feelings for Qi Ruxue, which caused her some concern.
If Qi Ruxue were a child from an ordinary family, a lot of things would be easy to handle.
But she was the precious daughter of the Qi family, had been engaged and then broken off the engagement with her son Ye Tianchen, and was now living in their home.
These complicated relations were becoming harder to explain.
The Qi family had a much grander background than the Ye family.
If something were to happen to Qi Ruxue while she stayed with the Ye family, tarnishing her reputation, surely the Qi family wouldn’t let it go.
There could be a huge fallout.
After much deliberation and consulting with her husband Ye Hong, she decided to get a clear answer from her son Ye Tianchen.
If he truly liked Qi Ruxue, then they would fully support him.
If not, they would ask Qi Ruxue to return home soon, to avoid sparking any ill gossip and potential conflicts between the Qi and Ye families.
“If that’s really the case, then just go and clear things up with Ruxue, tell her to go home, and stop tarnishing the girl’s reputation,” Luo Yan spoke up.
“This…
Mom, you should talk to her instead.
I don’t want to deal with that savage woman anymore!” Ye Tianchen still felt a burning pain on his left cheek, Qi Ruxue hit him really hard with that slap.
“It’s not good for mom to say anything either.
After all, we should treat our guests with courtesy.
To ask them to leave, I really can’t do it,” Luo Yan also said with some difficulty.
At this moment, Ye Qianwen, who had been listening on the side, snickered, gave her brother Ye Tianchen a mischievous look, and asked, “Brother, do you really want Sister Ruxue to leave?”
“Of course, I do.
Got any good ideas?” Ye Tianchen hurriedly asked.
“Hehe, that depends on your performance…” as Ye Qianwen spoke, she stretched out her right hand in a motion asking for cash and smiled as she spoke.
Ye Tianchen looked at his sister Ye Qianwen in exasperation and said speechlessly, “Is this a joke?
Even extorting your own brother?”
“This is for my legitimate labor.
If you don’t want to hear it, forget it,” Ye Qianwen said with her clever and naughty attitude.
Seeing that there was no way to deal with his sister, Ye Tianchen could only pull out a banknote from his pocket and slapped it into his sister Ye Qianwen’s hand, “Hurry up and talk.
I’m afraid that after getting the benefit fee, you won’t have any good ideas.”
Ye Qianwen was initially delighted to have successfully extorted money from her brother Ye Tianchen, but when she saw the denomination of the banknote in her right hand, she nearly cried — a fifty-cent note?
She was not a beggar, and her brother was too stingy, right?
“No way?
Fifty cents?
Brother, you’re at least the chairman of the Sea King Group with assets worth hundreds of millions.
Flipping out a fifty-cent note from you, isn’t that embarrassing?” Ye Qianwen said, rolling her eyes at her brother in disbelief.
“Take it or leave it.
Maybe your idea isn’t even worth these fifty cents,” Ye Tianchen deliberately provoked his sister Ye Qianwen.
“Who says I don’t have a good idea?
If my idea is good, will you give me two hundred?” Ye Qianwen demanded, puffing up her cheeks.
“No problem,” Ye Tianchen agreed readily.
“Since both you and mom find it hard to talk to Sister Ruxue, I’ll go.
Sister Ruxue and I are close friends who talk about everything, and we are of the same age, so many things are more convenient to discuss than for you,” Ye Qianwen said proudly.
“That’s not a bad idea.
Qianwen can go and test the waters with Ruxue first, find out what she thinks.
If there is a chance, you can mention these issues to her, see what she plans to do.
After all, we can’t just drive her away,” Luo Yan nodded and said.
“As long as you can get Qi Ruxue to leave our house, I’ll give you two hundred!” Ye Tianchen said earnestly.
“Brother, you’re backing out, you clearly said that if I had a good idea, you’d give me two hundred,” Ye Qianwen saw her brother Ye Tianchen trying to backpedal and quickly raised her voice.
“That’s what you heard.
If you handle this matter well, your brother will reward you with two hundred yuan, goodbye, good night!”
After finishing his words, Ye Tianchen didn’t wait for his sister to get over her annoyance and quickly ran upstairs, shutting the bedroom door behind him.
He had to get to the airport early the next morning.
He was going to tell his mom and sister that he would be abroad for a few days, but now it seemed a phone call at the time would do.
Once inside his bedroom, Ye Tianchen sat cross-legged and began to sense the trickle of superpower energy in his meridians.
Since his ascension to King-level Superpower Realm, he hadn’t had a good practice session.
On this trip to the USA, where there was a Superpower Special Agent Team with many highly skilled members, he might face brutal and bloody battles.
It was not acceptable to be weak, and he was genuinely looking forward to the battle with Cang Lang.
[PS: I must particularly thank the book friends “空白'” (“blank”), “powerct,” and “急速黑衣” (“Rapid Black Clothes”) for their rewards.
Also, someone was deliberately causing trouble; I didn’t want to pay attention to it initially, but this person is too unaware and keeps coming back.
This is an insult to our “Super Soldier” legion brothers, so when you have time, please leave more reviews in the book review area and don’t let the miscreants get their way…
Thank you, everyone!]
