Chapter 445: I Told You to Not Provoke My Wife (Part Two)
Xu Cheng walked over and added salt to the injury. “You could’ve provoked anyone, why provoke my wife? She’s the ruthless type that could even kill you with her cooking, are you tired of living already?”
“I really don’t want to live anymore!” Ye Xiu exploded. “Was it easy for me to come to Shangcheng? I got beaten up, and now I don’t even get a quilt! Where’s that warm welcome feeling that I should be getting?”
Xu Cheng: “I just heard that you brought my apprentice some gifts. Come, you just came to Shangcheng, I prepared you some gifts as well.”
Holy c.r.a.p, are you going to let me live or not?!
Ye Xiu immediately dodged to the side, looked at Xu Cheng, and said, “Big Brother, come on man, I won’t be asking you why you are going to the M Nation anymore, okay? I already understand why you are mad, it’s my fault for being dumb enough to be used as a tool.”
Xu Cheng put his arm around his shoulder, he was just joking. He brought Ye Xiu out to the backyard, and the two of them sat on the gra.s.s.
“I can tell you the purpose of my trip, but that’s only because you are my little brother. The thing that I suddenly want is very grand. It might be arrogance or day-dreaming, but ever since I succeeded Old Man Zhang’s legacy, I feel the urge to surpa.s.s him, so I can only move the stage from the nation to the world. Maybe it’s because I want to prove myself, or maybe it’s because I want to do something crazy while I’m still young. Some people might also laugh because I might have overestimated myself.”
Ye Xiu nodded. “What my grandpa meant to confirm with you is that there’s not much for you to play with within the country and that you want to go out and play?”
“Yes!” Xu Cheng said, “But you can go back and tell Grandpa, my heart for the country won’t change, just like my father’s loyalty. Don’t they just want this answer before letting me out?”
Ye Xiu: “Don’t say it that way okay? They don’t know how you screwed up the Wei Nation this badly, but as someone that understands Huaxia, if you want to go against this nation, it would definitely be a disaster. They have no choice but to take caution. My grandpa said, having all five of them stand out to have your back, one is to give you enough honor, but the other thing is also to act as some bargaining chip. After all, your wife is the Rose of Britain, so there’s definitely some fear of you being dragged to another camp.”
“Don’t worry.” Xu Cheng grinned. “My wife is the one following me, and don’t you forget, my father-in-law is also an authentic man of Huaxia, and he was a soldier too! His heart is where the country is, and just with this alone, he wouldn’t allow his daughter to shake my loyalty. Besides, you also saw, your sis-in-law is very smart; she’s not the type that has no brain.”
Ye Xiu nodded. “She’s really perfect, but sometimes I just feel like she would seek revenge for the smallest grievance.”
Right above them on the balcony hanging clothes, Lin Chuxue shouted at Lin Dong in the backyard, “Lin Dong, the guest bedroom’s air conditioning system is probably broken. Don’t turn it on tonight, it might burn the circuit.”
Ye Xiu was speechless.
Xu Cheng patted him on the shoulders. “I told you to not provoke my wife.”(r
