Chapter 770: Chapter 770: Old Lady Cen Dies of Anger_1
"That’s easy to handle, then this matter is up to me. I’ll discuss the specific departure time and give you a call later."
"Um."
After hanging up the phone, you suddenly realize that Xi Yu is looking at you with a look of surprise.
"What are you looking at me for?"
She still didn’t speak, just kept staring steadily at you.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
You waved your hand in front of her face.
Only after lowering your hand did she finally speak up, "Master Li, you just said something."
"Huh?" You were momentarily baffled by Xi Yu, and said to her, "I said a lot of things, which one?"
"The last sentence with Professor Sun."
"Um."
"No, the one before that," Xi Yu said, "you mentioned that these past few days you were planning to take your girlfriend out for a trip."
"Yeah, that’s what I tell other people. I can’t just go around saying I’m planning to take Zhao’er tomb-robbing, can I?"
"Not that one."
"Then what?"
You suddenly felt Xi Yu was acting strangely. She usually gave off an impression of being efficient and steady, someone you could rely on, but now she seemed a bit neurotic.
"Them."
"Huh?" Your brows were now furrowed. What on earth was Xi Yu trying to say?
Seeing that you were finally getting impatient, she said with a smile, "You just said you were taking your girlfriends out for a trip."
"There’s no ’s’." You said, expressionless, realizing she was preparing to play a word game with you.
"You clearly said it, and Professor Sun heard it too. He must be wondering about it right now, and when he sees the three of us together, he will surely be surprised and jealous. Master Li has managed to embrace two goddesses at once. As for me, well, I’ll just make do as the girl who warms the bed."
Just as you were about to speak, Xi Yu suddenly added another sentence: "Master Li, don’t forget one thing, okay?"
"What thing?"
"You still owe me a condition."
"A condition?"
Alright, if Xi Yu hadn’t brought it up, you definitely would have forgotten. You indeed promised that, as long as her condition wasn’t unethical, you would fulfill it for her.
At that time, you didn’t think as deeply as you do now. Reflecting on it carefully, it’s simply a huge trap, and you voluntarily jumped into it.
"Remember it now?"
Xi Yu, who was always serious and not given to laughter, had suddenly become difficult to deal with, which was something you had never expected.
She stretched out her hand and lightly tapped on your forehead with a charming smile, "Master Li, the condition I’m talking about is for you to fulfill my three wishes."
Your mouth hung open, feeling as if your whole being had crashed.
"Hey, that’s not fair, is it?"
"Who would have thought she would suddenly change her mind and said, ’If that condition isn’t acceptable, then let’s just change it. How about this? Let you marry both the young lady and Zhao’er at once, creating a ’Beautiful Empress Hero’. What do you think?’"
Looking at Xi Yu with a speechless face, "Hey, this is a society governed by law, practicing monogamy. I really don’t want to be charged with bigamy. Plus, do you think Little Yun would agree? Besides, Zhao’er hasn’t recovered her senses yet. Once she does, who knows what kind of situation will arise? Let’s just wait until Zhao’er recovers before discussing anything else."
Seeing your serious expression, she smirked slyly and continued, "I’m just kidding with you. You usually seem so lively. As a servant, I surely have no say in the young lady’s matters of the heart. As for that condition, I haven’t thought of it yet either. I’ll let you know later when I think of something."
Hearing this, you couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief inwardly. You were really worried she would stubbornly insist on you marrying both Zhao’er and Wu Qiyi, which would be truly troublesome.
While you were talking, footsteps sounded from outside. Wu Qiyi came in with Su Liyan and Su Zhenghe.
"Brother-in-law, we’re leaving now." Su Zhenghe plopped down on the couch next to you, glanced at the electronic map in your hands, "Brother-in-law, what is this? It looks like a map."
"Just messing around with it," you said with a smile, swiftly changing the subject, "Zhenghe, you’re leaving?"
"Yeah, we got a call from home urging us to go back. My elder sister is about to take the gaokao in a few days, and I need to go to school too."
You glanced at Su Liyan. This girl was really something else. She was about to take the gaokao, yet she still had the mood to come out and have fun. Anyone else would probably be burning the midnight oil at home.
"Brother-in-law, my elder sister is a genius of the Su Family, you know. She had actually finished the university curricula a long time ago. The gaokao - it’s as easy for her as playing house. Initially, she wanted to skip grades like those prodigious children, but our grandma wouldn’t allow it. She said that girls need to be stable and not too lively, so she went through schooling in the regular way."
Nodding, you asked Su Liyan, "In that case, where do you plan to attend college?"
Su Liyan seemed to have never considered this question. After a moment, she said, "I wanted to go with my cousin, but we have too many relatives over there. A whole bunch of aunts and such. In a couple of years, all these relatives would surely be introducing me to all sorts of losers every day. To avoid that, I’ve decided to go to Eastern Sea University. That way, I’m not too far from my cousin, so I can reach out to her if I have any problems. If not, I still have you, brother-in-law."
Shrugging, you didn’t comment on what Su Liyan said.
Then, you turned to Wu Qiyi and said, "Little Yun, we should also start preparing. Let’s just leave together."
She exchanged a look with Xi Yu beside her. Seeing the latter nod, she replied softly, "Okay, sure."
Two days later, in Guihua Cafe at Jiangzhe University.
"Boss, Boss! Huge news, huge news!"
Zong Wangyue rushed in, looking flustered.
At that moment, you were giving some instructions to Wei Shuxian. Seeing Zong Wangyue like this, you couldn’t help but turn and ask, "Good news, or bad news?"
Zong Wangyue thought for a moment, then smiled, "Good news!"
"Let’s hear it." Wei Shuxian also put down his pen, looking at Zong Wangyue with a smile.
Zong Wangyue gave a light cough, "Ahem, don’t be shocked when you hear it."
"Quit stalling, speed it up! Old Shu is about to take off on a plane soon!" Wei Shuxian stared at Zong Wangyue impatiently.
Zong Wangyue, thick-skinned as ever, shook his chubby face, trying to look serious, "I’m talking about the Scenic Sect’s Master, Old Lady Cen from the Cen Family. She... she’s dead!"
"Hmm?" You momentarily thought you had misheard, "You mean Old Lady Cen, Cen Xiaodan?"
"Right, her. She’s dead, around eight o’clock this morning."
"How did she die?"
Upon hearing this news, you felt not a whit of joy because that Cen Xiaodan was the one Zhao’er had injured, and quite seriously at that. In the end, it was Wu Qiyi who had her flown away by helicopter.
Although the incident was Cen Xiaodan’s fault, her, a grand Scenic Sect Master, launching a sneak attack on you, a mere junior, and getting injured, was her own just dessert. But setting the Scenic Sect aside, Cen Xiaodan was also the head of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Cen Family. You worried that her death might prompt the Cen Family to harbor grudges against you and Zhao’er. If that happened, the ensuing troubles would be endless. You certainly didn’t want to make an enemy out of an entire colossal family; that would be very unwise.
Zong Wangyue let out a secretive smile, his peanut-sized eyes completely disappearing when he grinned.
"Hehehe, let me tell you, that Old Lady Cen from the Cen family was literally pissed to death!"
