Chapter 47: System, you old bastard!

~7 min read 1,288 words

Gan Yi saw Ye Chen like this, and at this moment she was trying hard not to laugh.

Ye Chen naturally sensed Gan Yi's emotions; although he could shield Ye Nan and Lin Ruoxi, there was no need to do so.

Because Gan Yi hasn't done anything too excessive to him, and Gan Yi's nature is not bad, she just likes to play a bit; moreover, Ye Chen is waiting for Gan Yi to take him in this chaotic world to find heavenly treasures and earthly riches, and with Gan Yi being such a person of destiny, finding these is absolutely effortless.

"All right, uncle, don't hit little Chenchen; children speak without restraint, I believe he said that unintentionally."

Gan Yi at the side finally spoke; Ye Chen instantly gave her a grateful look, but soon Ye Chen realized something was wrong.

"No, it's this little girl who framed me, and what the hell am I grateful for?"

After saying that in his heart, Ye Chen instantly withdrew his grateful look and looked at Gan Yi with a face full of contempt.

Seeing the change in Ye Chen's expression, Gan Yi would have laughed unabashedly if Ye Nan and Lin Ruoxi weren't present.

At this moment, Lin Ruoxi had finished preparing the food, and she said to Ye Nan, Ye Chen, and Gan Yi: "All right, stop arguing. It's time to eat."

Upon hearing Lin Ruoxi's words, Ye Nan gradually retracted his seven wolves.

And Gan Yi, sitting on the sofa, was still trying hard not to laugh.

But soon she stopped laughing, went into the kitchen to help Lin Ruoxi serve the dishes.

Not long after, the table was filled with a big spread of food.

Ye Chen looked at the dishes, more lavish than a New Year's feast, and fell into silence.

"Mom and Dad, you're being too good to the person who framed your son."

Ye Chen thought this, and deep inside he alone shed sad tears.

"After all, I alone bear everything."

Ye Chen said that, then went up to the table, but as soon as he got up, Lin Ruoxi drove him away.

"If you don't call your friends, what table are you going to?"

Ye Chen, being shouted at by Lin Ruoxi, felt only bitter sorrow in his heart.

"Is there anyone who can come save me?"

This is Ye Chen's thought at the moment; he only wants someone to save him from water and fire, but obviously he's overthinking, because there is no one here who can save him from water and fire.

He can't count on Gan Yi; if Gan Yi doesn't trap him, that's already good.

"Come, come, little lady, come over to eat."

Lin Ruoxi warmly greeted Gan Yi to come sit down; upon hearing Lin Ruoxi's words, Gan Yi came to the table and sat down.

"Come on, come on, eat quickly, eat quickly."

Lin Ruoxi was greeting Gan Yi to sit down, and Ye Chen's seat was exactly the seat Gan Yi was taking.

Ye Chen felt utterly helpless; now he not only lost his place in the family, but even his place at the dinner table.

"My life is bitter; who understands?"

Ye Chen bitterly said in his heart, then he pulled over a stool and sat down; with his strength, he should be able to lift this stool easily.

But he didn't do that, because he constantly reminded himself that he is a child who just started kindergarten.

At dinner time, Gan Yi didn't mess with Ye Chen; she was eating obediently, and seeing this, Ye Chen also felt relieved.

After dinner, Ye Nan pulled Ye Chen into the e-sports room; Ye Chen didn't even have a chance to resist. Seeing this, Gan Yi asked Lin Ruoxi: "What are they going to do?"

Upon hearing Gan Yi's answer, Lin Ruoxi said to her: "They're going to play games; if you like playing Smooth Battle, you can also go play."

After Lin Ruoxi finished speaking, Gan Yi's mouth gradually curved into a smile.

Obviously, she asked that on purpose.

After hearing Lin Ruoxi's words, Gan Yi said to her: "I'll play, then I'll go take a look first."

Gan Yi said, taking out a gold bracelet from her bosom and stuffing it into Lin Ruoxi's hands; upon seeing the gold bracelet in Gan Yi's hand, Lin Ruoxi's eyes widened and she hurriedly said: "Miss Gan, how can this be!"

Lin Ruoxi hurriedly refused, but her reaction was obviously slower than Gan Yi's, and she wasn't as strong; although Lin Ruoxi struggled to refuse, she still ended up putting the gold bracelet on Lin Ruoxi.

"Miss Gan, you..."

Gan Yi knew what Lin Ruoxi wanted to say, so she quickly interrupted: "Oh, just keep it; it's only a gold bracelet, not worth much money. If you feel embarrassed, Sister Lin, then when I come over you can just make some extra tasty dishes."

"I feel that Sister Lin's cooking is really delicious!"

"Moreover, Sister Lin, don't you feel that your demeanor is different after wearing this gold bracelet?"

Upon hearing Gan Yi's words, Lin Ruoxi instantly felt doubtful and also expressed a tone of confusion.

"Ah?"

"Yes, Sister Lin, after wearing it you really look younger, so please accept it."

"Which woman doesn't want to become more beautiful? Moreover, it can make one look younger; this temptation, Lin Ruoxi truly cannot refuse."

But she really felt embarrassed accepting Gan Yi's gold bracelet; Gan Yi seemed to know Lin Ruoxi's thoughts, so she said to Lin Ruoxi: "Sister Lin, please accept it; if you don't, I'll feel embarrassed coming to your door for meals in the future."

After Gan Yi finished speaking, Lin Ruoxi looked at Gan Yi, at her sincere eyes, knowing that if she refused again she would be wasting Gan Yi's good intentions, so she said to Gan Yi: "Then Sister Lin will accept it, and thank you for your kindness."

"Mm!"

"Then Sister Lin, I'll go over and take a look first."

"Okay, go ahead."

After Lin Ruoxi finished speaking, Gan Yi gave Lin Ruoxi a smile, then headed toward the e-sports room.

At this moment, Ye Chen, who was playing games in the e-sports room, after hearing the conversation between Lin Ruoxi and Gan Yi, felt that something was off.

"How come this feels like a daughter-in-law meeting her mother-in-law?"

Ye Chen thought in his heart; for him, multitasking two things is extremely easy, even doing three things is a breeze, so he can play games while listening to Gan Yi and Lin Ruoxi's conversation.

At this moment, Ye Chen heard Gan Yi's footsteps gradually approaching the e-sports room, and he only felt that something bad was about to happen.

"No, this place absolutely cannot be stayed in; if I stay longer, I fear my life won't be safe."

Ye Chen thought this in his heart; however, just as he finished speaking, the system's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

【Detected that the host is being hunted by a person of destiny; although the cultivation world is extremely dangerous, a worthless life is still worth living, host, don't be afraid, go!】

After Ye Chen heard the system's voice, his mouth twitched, and he said to the system: "System, if I really die, will you save me?"

【Even if it's a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, this system will definitely bring you back!】

"System, I'm really touched!"

Ye Chen spoke with tears of gratitude, but the system's next words almost made him unable to hold back his cursing.

【Of course, if you took it seriously, then just pretend I didn't say it.】

Ye Chen: "……"

"System... you damn old man!"
