Chapter 2792: A cripple meets a lame man

~11 min read 2,137 words

"What did you say?!"

Wu Feiyan was instantly furious at this moment!

She had lived for four hundred years, and for the last three hundred, she had almost ignored everything.

In these three hundred years, that person was the first to dare to say he would cut off her head!

Chen Zhimin, on the other end of the phone, was scared out of his wits upon hearing Wu Feiyan's angry shout. He hurriedly said obsequiously, "Lord, please forgive me. Your subordinate is only repeating the original words of that thief, and I have no disrespect for you, Lord..."

Although Wu Feiyan knew clearly that Chen Zhimin was only repeating, her heart was still filled with raging fire.

Chen Zhimin was afraid that Wu Feiyan's anger would not subside, so he hurriedly added, "Lord, your subordinate is willing to share your worries and personally go to Jin Ling. At that time, I will definitely do my best to find out for you what kind of background that mysterious person has!"

Wu Feiyan said coldly, "If you go now, you are just walking into a trap."

Chen Zhimin hurriedly said, "Lord, Dong Liqin is already dead. The probability of the An family suspecting your subordinate is not very high. Moreover, even if they suspect me, so what? Without solid evidence, I don't believe they can kill me. After all, your subordinate is the son-in-law of the An family, An Youyou's husband, and has always been highly valued by An Qishan..."

Wu Feiyan said disdainfully, "The An family is far more cunning than you imagine. After Dong Liqin was exposed, the An family will definitely not trust any outsider again. Even if you are An Youyou's husband, so what? As long as they suspect you, they will definitely not let you go easily."

Chen Zhimin couldn't help but say, "But Lord... the current situation is really too passive for us. As long as the mysterious expert behind the An family is not found, we will not have a day of peace!"

Wu Feiyan snorted coldly, "Even Changsheng Bo couldn't handle that mysterious expert, so it's even more impossible for you to find any clues about him. Perhaps after the other party catches you, they will torture you and eventually get more secrets about us from your mouth."

Chen Zhimin hesitated for a moment and said, "Lord, to be honest with you, your subordinate also feels that it is difficult to ride a tiger now. Such a big thing happened to the An family. If your subordinate doesn't go to Jin Ling, the An family will definitely suspect me. How should I pass this hurdle then?"

Wu Feiyan said indifferently, "Don't worry, since the An family already suspects you, you won't be able to pass this hurdle anyway. However, there is one thing that is still okay: your daughter with An Youyou is now in your hands. Keep this trump card well; it might be useful in the future. And you should not fall out with the An family for the time being. Take good care of the child in the United States. The An family will not leave Jin Ling in the short term, and they probably won't take the initiative to fall out with you either. Let's just pretend we don't know for now and keep each other in check."

Chen Zhimin said respectfully, "Your subordinate obeys!"

At this very moment.

After Ye Chen mastered the mental cultivation to hide his breath and spiritual energy, he drove to Zijin Villa to pick up Lin Wan'er and go to the airport together.

When arriving at Zijin Villa, Qiu Yingshan, Sun Zhidong, Old Zhang, and an old lady who looked to be around seventy were already waiting respectfully outside the villa gate early.

Seeing Ye Chen driving over, the four of them hurriedly stepped forward and waited respectfully outside the car door.

Ye Chen pushed the door and got out of the car. The four of them bowed to Ye Chen as if they had agreed in advance, saying with full respect, "Greetings, Mr. Ye!"

Ye Chen was caught off guard by the four of them and hurriedly said, "You don't need to be so polite, just call me Ye Chen."

As he spoke, he looked at the old lady beside Qiu Yingshan and asked curiously, "You must be Mrs. Qiu, right?"

Qiu Yingshan's wife put her hands together and said extremely respectfully, "Reporting to Mr. Ye, I am Yingshan's wife, Ma Suyun. Yingshan gave me the Rejuvenation Pill bestowed by Mr. Ye last night. I thank Mr. Ye for the blessing!"

Just as she finished speaking, Ma Suyun was about to kneel down.

Ye Chen was about to stop her, but Qiu Yingshan blocked the two, saying respectfully, "Mr. Ye, Miss said that if you don't thank her with sincerity, you will lose your blessings..."

Ye Chen pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but held back.

Although the combined age of these four old people was nearly four hundred years, they had always regarded Lin Wan'er's words as the golden rule in their hearts.

It is no exaggeration to say that Lin Wan'er was their life mentor. Whatever Lin Wan'er said, they believed and did.

Therefore, if what he said differed from Lin Wan'er's, they would definitely choose to listen to Lin Wan'er.

Helpless, Ye Chen could only let the old lady kneel on the ground and thank him.

After she stood up, Ye Chen said, "By the way, has Miss Lin come down?"

Qiu Yingshan said, "Mr. Ye, Miss has ordered that after you arrive, please move to her courtyard first."

Ye Chen originally thought they were in a hurry and Lin Wan'er would come down directly so they could go to the airport together. He didn't expect Lin Wan'er to want him to go up.

However, he didn't have any other thoughts or opinions. Since Lin Wan'er let him go up, he would go up.

Immediately, he cupped his hands to the four of them and stepped up to the top-floor courtyard.

At this time, Lin Wan'er was still boiling tea in the courtyard.

Before Ye Chen entered the door, he smelled the tea fragrance coming from the courtyard. He knocked gently and heard Lin Wan'er's voice coming from the courtyard, "Please come in, Young Master."

Ye Chen pushed the door open. Lin Wan'er was wearing an oversized white Gucci T-shirt, paired with a pair of classic LV printed shorts, and stepping on a pair of Hermès leather slippers. What was even more surprising was that her hair had been permed into large waves, making her look young and fashionable, with a touch of charm.

And Lin Wan'er, dressed like this, was sitting in front of the stove boiling tea. The scene made Ye Chen feel somewhat incongruous.

At this time, Ye Chen was indeed a bit surprised. After all, in his impression, Lin Wan'er had always been a girl of very classical beauty. Even if she was wearing a school uniform or a summer T-shirt, it was difficult to hide her classical beauty. She was completely different from her current image.

Seeing Ye Chen's surprised look, Lin Wan'er couldn't help but tease, "Is my outfit scaring you, Young Master?"

Ye Chen smiled, "It's indeed a bit hard to understand. This doesn't seem to be your style."

Lin Wan'er pursed her lips and smiled. While pouring tea for Ye Chen, she said, "After all, I have to show my face outside, so it's safer to disguise myself."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er added, "By the way, Young Master, I have asked someone to prepare a set of clothes for you. Would you like to go and change?"

Ye Chen asked in surprise, "You even prepared it for me?"

Lin Wan'er said with a giggle, "My current look is still very different from yours. If we go out together, I'm afraid people will think we don't match."

Ye Chen smiled, "Listen to advice and you'll be full. Since Miss Lin has prepared it for me, I'll change into it."

Lin Wan'er's pretty face flushed, and she said shyly, "Please follow me inside, Young Master."

Ye Chen followed Lin Wan'er into the room. Lin Wan'er took a shopping bag from the table and handed it to Ye Chen, asking softly, "Does Young Master need me to serve you while you change?"

Ye Chen was startled and hurriedly waved his hand, "No need, no need, I can do it myself!"

Lin Wan'er nodded dejectedly and said, "Then Young Master, go upstairs and change. I'll wait downstairs. If you need my help, please feel free to ask."

Ye Chen thought to himself, what help would I need to change clothes? I'm not disabled. However, he still said with a smile on his face, "Okay, I'm going then."

Going upstairs, it was Lin Wan'er's boudoir.

The boudoir was filled with the same faint fragrance as Lin Wan'er, which made people feel a slight dizziness.

Ye Chen subconsciously recalled the experience of being helped to bed by Lin Wan'er when he was seriously injured, and a strange feeling he couldn't describe suddenly arose in his heart.

However, he didn't dare to think too much and hurriedly took out the clothes Lin Wan'er had prepared for him to change into.

After taking the clothes out, he realized that Lin Wan'er had prepared the same couple's outfit for him and herself.

The clothes in Ye Chen's hand were also an oversized Gucci T-shirt, classic printed LV shorts, and the same Hermès slippers.

It seemed that Lin Wan'er wanted the two of them to disguise themselves as a couple to go to Yunnan.

However, Ye Chen didn't think too much about it. A man and a woman going out, disguising themselves as a couple was relatively more reasonable. This time, the person they were going to contact was Wu Feiyan, the strongest expert Ye Chen currently knew. Naturally, there was no room for any negligence, and the more cautious they were, the safer they would be.

So Ye Chen immediately changed into the clothes and walked downstairs.

Seeing Ye Chen coming down the stairs, Lin Wan'er's eyebrows curved into a happy arc.

Although Ye Chen was already twenty-eight, he had the blessing of spiritual energy, so he looked like a young man in his early twenties. Coupled with this trendy outfit, I'm afraid no one would doubt it if someone said he was a college student.

The more Lin Wan'er looked at Ye Chen, the happier she felt in her heart, always feeling that the way the two of them wore couple's outfits revealed an indescribable sense of coordination everywhere.

Ye Chen came to Lin Wan'er and saw her face was red, so he asked curiously, "Miss Lin, did you prepare these clothes, or did Mr. Qiu and the others prepare them?"

Lin Wan'er said shyly, "I asked them to prepare them."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er hurriedly explained, "I just feel that this time going to Yunnan with you, how to package our relationship to the outside world determines the probability of our exposure. Thinking about it, it seems that... it seems that a couple is more suitable..."

Ye Chen didn't think too much and nodded, saying, "Since that's the case, then after we go out, we will act as a couple in front of outsiders."

Lin Wan'er bit her lower lip and said with a bit of bashfulness, "Since we are acting as a couple, shouldn't you think of a suitable title for me, Young Master?"

"Title?" Ye Chen asked curiously, "What title?"

Lin Wan'er hesitated for a moment and said with a red face, "I see that young couples nowadays either call each other 'baby' or 'darling', or call each other 'husband' and 'wife'..."

Ye Chen said awkwardly, "This... why don't you decide, Miss Lin? You've eaten more salt than I've eaten rice. Whatever you say, it is."

Lin Wan'er rolled her eyes and muttered, "Young Master is indirectly saying that I'm old..."

"No, no..." Ye Chen subconsciously raised both hands to wave them, saying solemnly, "I swear I didn't mean that. I just purely feel that you have much more experience in all aspects than I do. In front of you, I won't show off my meager skills. Whatever you say, I'll do."

Lin Wan'er stomped her feet in a hurry and said shyly, "I've only lived longer than you, but I have absolutely no experience in romantic relationships, unlike you, who have already been married. You have much more experience than me..."

Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh awkwardly, saying, "We are both cripples meeting a lame man. Neither of us should say the other's legs are nimble. Let's support each other and grope our way forward..." ===== CHAPTER 2793 =====
