Chapter 525: My Father Gave This To Me!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Three days later in the afternoon, Ye Chen leaned lazily on a rattan chair on the lawn of the Ye Family villa, enjoying the gentle breeze and the bright sun.
Su Yuhan stood behind him and ma.s.saged him with her slender fingers. Ye Hai and Wu Lan sat by the side while the family enjoyed a short moment of happiness.
Soon, Su Yuhan was panting and sweating profusely.
A certain someone was enjoying the ma.s.sage while saying, “If news of me being able to get Director Su to ma.s.sage me were to spread, I don’t know how many people would go crazy over it. However, your ma.s.sage skills aren’t good enough. You need to improve!”
Pa!
A hand landed on his shoulder.
Su Yuhan immediately gave up and snorted. “Go to h.e.l.l. It’s rare that I’m in such a good mood to serve you. Are you trying to be picky?”
“No, I was just joking. Why would I complain about my wife?” Ye Chen admitted defeat on the spot. He straightened his body and pulled the beautiful Su Yuhan into his embrace. He said while smiling, “Come, come, come. Let me serve you.”
At that moment, a little girl walked out of the house. She peeked her head out and looked at Ye Chen, Su Yuhan, and the rest outside. Then, she turned around and waved toward the house.
Two figures darted out like a gust of wind as they flew towards Jiulong Lake outside the villa.
When the little girl put her hands behind her back and was about to sneak past Ye Chen, Su Yuhan could not help but ask, “Mengmeng, what are you doing? Sneaking around?”
“Ah!”
The little fella stopped in her tracks. Her black eyes darted around as she said guiltily, “Mommy, I didn’t do anything. I just wanted to play by the lake.”
That’s what she said.
However, her hands behind her tightened.
“Why do you want to go to the lake? What if you fall down? You’re not allowed to go!” Su Yuhan pulled a long face like the strict mother she was.
The little girl’s face turned bitter immediately. She could not help but look at Ye Chen. “Daddy, tell Mommy. I’ll be careful. I’ll be back soon.”
The little fella understood everyone’s temper quite well.
In the entire Ye family, Ye Chen and Ye Hai were the only ones who doted on her. On the other hand, Wu Lan and Su Yuhan were relatively strict. Therefore, she s.h.i.+fted her target to Ye Chen since Su Yuhan had rejected her wishes.
“Go on ahead, don’t get too crazy out there!”
Ye Chen ignored beautiful Su Yuhan’s displeased expression. He waved his hand proudly in front of the child.
“Long live Daddy! I love you the most!”
The expression on the little fella’s face instantly brightened up. She grabbed her things and rushed out like a wild horse. As she ran, she said, “Sister Qian Qian, Brother Haohao, I’m here.”
Not long after, the three little kids rushed to the lake and took out the fis.h.i.+ng rod they had prepared. Mengmeng looked around and took out a red pill from her body. She hung it on the hook again.
Yang Tian’s son, Yang Hao, drooled as he stood by the side. “Sister Mengmeng, can we really catch fish with this method? How about… How about you let me eat it?”
“I’ll trade ten fish in exchange for that?”
He had always coveted Mengmeng’s pills.
That smell was too fragrant!
“Do you think I want your ten fish? I’m missing the enjoyment of fis.h.i.+ng.”
Mengmeng rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, “How am I supposed to fish if I let you eat it? Besides, my father gave it to me. If you want to eat it, just ask your father to refine some for you.”
“My dad doesn’t know how to make it!” Little Yang Hao said with a straight face.
“I don’t care.”
Mengmeng snorted coldly and said arrogantly, “If your father doesn’t know how to make it, it means that he’s useless.”
Little Yang Hao was speechless.
At that moment, he suddenly envied Mengmeng for having a father who could refine pills. On the other hand, his own father constantly encouraged him to ask Sister Mengmeng for pills so that the adult could have it for himself.
Mengmeng ignored him and turned to look at Qian Qian. She took out another pill. “Sister Qian Qian, do you want one? I’ll give you one.”
“I shouldn’t, right? Let’s give it to Brother Yang Hao. He likes it.” Qian Qian’s eyes showed that she clearly wanted it, but she still rejected it.
Little Yang Hao’s eyes lit up.
“He’s a good-for-nothing, and a cry-baby. It would be a waste to give this to him, and he has asked for it more than once.”
Mengmeng pursed her lips and forcefully handed the pill to Qian Qian. Then, she picked up the fis.h.i.+ng hook with the pill tied to it as a bait and threw it into the lake…
…
In the villa.
The corner of Ye Chen’s lips twitched when he sensed that through his Divine Consciousness. He could not help but mutter, “Using medicinal pills as bait? How did I give birth to such a prodigal daughter?”
Even in the cultivation world, he had never heard of any child being so extravagant as to use pills to catch an ordinary fish.
As he thought about it, he rubbed his chin and smiled smugly. “However, this prodigal girl is telling the truth. Having a father who knows alchemy is indeed not bad.”
Pa!
A soft hand slapped his head grumpily. However, he saw Su Yuhan looking at him angrily. “Ye Chen, you’re really a troublemaker. You went to Korea and killed all the experts there.”
“That’s right, Xiao Chen. You have no idea how scared your father and I were when we heard about it,” Wu Lan accused.
He was not the only one who knew about Ye Chen’s actions in Korea. The entire Ye family learned about it on the Internet, especially when Ye Chen fought Yins.h.i.+, the entire family broke out in cold sweat.
“I understand, Mom. I’ll try not to do that next time.” Ye Chen could only admit his mistake when it came to such things.
“You think you’re off the hook just because you admit your mistake?”
Su Yuhan chuckled. “You’re not allowed to run around when you’re back this time. You can only go out after celebrating Mengmeng’s birthday at the very least.”
“Okay, I’ll listen to my darling wife.”
“Also, Mengmeng is going to Jinling to partic.i.p.ate in an art compet.i.tion the day after tomorrow. I’m afraid my company is busy, so I’ll let you take our daughter to Nanjing.”
Ye Chen could not help but be stunned. “Painting compet.i.tion?”
“Yes, previously, our city organized a Children’s Palace exhibition. Your daughter’s work was selected, and she will be representing Lin City to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion at Nanjing.”
Su Yuhan nodded. Subsequently, she looked at him without allowing him to reject her. “Say, Ye Chen, this concerns your daughter’s future. As her father, you won’t refuse to go, right?”
“Of course!”
Sensing the hostility in her eyes, Ye Chen nodded immediately and said while grinning, “Of course I’ll go. I have to thank my wife for grooming a future art saint for me.”
Although this bootlicking was a little vulgar, the smile on Beauty Su’s lips betrayed her inner thoughts.
After spending more than two hours together, Ye Chen received a call from the Patriarch of h.e.l.l. “Fellow Ye, please come to my place. I have something to discuss with you!”
