Chapter 1398: He was too crafty
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After a discussion with the Star Destroyer mercenary team, Ye Wanwan had them leave first to start preparing while she also left and drove toward her house.
After about half an hour, Ye Wanwan parked in front of Yi Shuihan’s house.
Ye Wanwan looked at the extra-thick door in front of her and knocked.
Absolute silence greeted her.
“Knight-errant Yi…” Ye Wanwan didn’t give up and knocked again.
After knocking several minutes, the door opened from the inside with a creak.
Yi Shuihan stood in the doorway sleepily wearing Spongebob pajamas, his eyes somewhat red as though his dreams were disturbed.
“Speak.”
Viciousness surfaced in Yi Shuihan’s eyes.
“Knight-errant Yi… I came to perform after-sales service and check to see if your door had any problems…” Ye Wanwan said with a smile.
Yi Shuihan pondered over it for a few seconds before s.h.i.+fting to the side and allowing Ye Wanwan to enter the house.
Ye Wanwan relaxed and entered. She made a show of examining the newly installed door.
“The quality is decent, but it’s too expensive,” Yi Shuihan said to Ye Wanwan.
“Expensive…?” Ye Wanwan was startled. She didn’t tell Big Dipper to take money from Yi Shuihan, so why did “it’s too expensive” mean…
“Knight-errant Yi, you… paid?” Ye Wanwan asked.
Yi Shuihan glanced at Ye Wanwan. “Your installation worker said the door was an exclusively made limited edition that’s worth $200,000. He asked me for $100,000.”
Ye Wanwan froze in her spot, dumbfounded.
This door was directly purchased at a store and only cost a few thousand dollars… Yet, Big Dipper turned around and asked Yi Shuihan for $100,000.
Most importantly, Big Dipper never mentioned this payment to her.
“Knight-errant Yi, um… you gave the money?” Ye Wanwan smiled in embarra.s.sment.
“I’m not a bandit.” Yi Shuihan dryly glanced at Ye Wanwan and turned to walk into the house.
It appears he did give it…
Ye Wanwan wished nothing more than to immediately return to the Fearless Alliance and skin Big Dipper.
He was too crafty…
A moment later, Ye Wanwan entered the living room and found Yi Shuihan lying on the sofa with a black eye-mask over his eyes.
“Knight-errant Yi… Eh… I heard something, but I don’t know whether to tell you… If I say it, I feel like it’d be disrespectful to you. If I don’t say it, I’d feel like I’m a bad friend…” Ye Wanwan looked conflicted.
Yi Shuihan said lightly, “Speak your mind.”
“Knight-errant Yi… Are you and Lord Asura brothers?” Ye Wanwan asked, thirsting for gossip.
“I don’t have any brothers,” Yi Shuihan answered aloofly.
Ye Wanwan relaxed upon hearing that. Someone like Yi Shuihan would rarely lie. If he said they weren’t brothers, then they definitely weren’t brothers.
Ye Wanwan actually came there in hopes of obtaining Yi Shuihan’s a.s.sistance. If Yi Shuihan could help her handle Lord Asura, all would be well with the world.
“Ahem, then I’ll speak frankly… I recently heard that Lord Asura was very disrespectful to you, Knight-errant Yi… He said something about how the strongest person in the Independent State was him, Lord Asura, not some Yi Shuihan…” Ye Wanwan said, acting as if it was true.
However, Yi Shuihan lay unmoving on the sofa, seemingly uncaring about Ye Wanwan’s words.
