Chapter 129: They Don’t Dare to Snatch

Chapter 129: Chapter 129: They Don’t Dare to Snatch

His beard trembled with irritation, his round eyes glaring at her!

"If you smash one more, we’ll be left with just one from the pair, and if you do, I’ll get angry with you!"

His hands and feet shook with anger as he placed the Small Jade Buddha back in its spot, the more he looked at it, the more his heart ached!

A perfect pair, and with one slip of her hand, it turned into a single!

Feeling a tightness in his chest, he "hmphed" and, with his hands behind his back, strode arrogantly into the adjacent tea room.

Yun Yue slouched her shoulders and followed behind him, with a long stride, she sat down and began sipping from the exquisite teacup.

The temperature was just right, the aroma of the tea refreshing, its flavor rich and sweet. She smiled with a purse of her lips.

"You’ve improved your tea art."

The old man arched an eyebrow at her, holding himself haughtily, he snorted, "Of course, wouldn’t you expect that from me?"

Mo Fan sat nearby with a smile on his face. These two were born to bicker; each as proud as the other, it was a mystery how they got along.

He raised an eyebrow and looked at both of them, stroking his beard, "Did you come empty-handed?"

Yun Mei’s eyebrows lifted; she knew he would say that. Every time she visited, she couldn’t enter without bringing something nice.

She took a plastic bag out of her backpack and handed it over to him.

The corners of their mouths twitched as they looked at the plastic bag.

Every time the boss brought something, it was surprisingly expensive and very rare. She packed it so casually, either in a plastic bag or a burlap sack.

He raised his chin and, with a pretentious air, took out the box from inside and opened it.

"Seeing that you’re unwell, I’m giving you this Blood Ganoderma to help with your health."

"Just coming to visit is enough, no need for such expensive gifts," he said hypocritically, unable to hide his smile.

"..."

Just pretend!

Old fox!

"Not bad, not bad! I heard just the other day someone spent fifty million at an auction for this. I didn’t expect it to end up in my hands so soon. At least you’ve put some thought into it." His eyes narrowed into slits as he swiftly tucked it away.

Seeing her wearing the First Middle School uniform, his eyes widened in surprise, "You’ve enrolled in First Middle School?"

"What else?" Yun Yue leaned back in her chair, relaxed and comfortable.

"The school hasn’t been torn down by you, has it?"

"They don’t fight; otherwise, it would have been in ruins long ago," she said, crossing her hands behind her head.

First Middle School was great in every way, except they didn’t fight, which brought its issues.

Not like the old rural elementary school, where a disagreement would lead to a fight. Thinking about it, she felt a bit nostalgic.

"Hehehe." He laughed, sipped his tea; as always, he deserved a beating.

"I have some winter bamboo shoots. I’ll have someone prepare them for you to take and eat; we won’t keep you for lunch."

"..."

They traveled all this distance to visit him, brought a gift worth fifty million, and he sent them off with just some bamboo shoots, not even offering them a meal.

There probably isn’t a stingier person than him.

The two of them finished their tea and left.

Old Man Bai personally saw her to the door, as Wang watched the departing vehicle with a succession of sighs.

Housekeeper Sun appeared behind him, asking somewhat reluctantly, "Grandpa, why didn’t you let Miss Yun Yue stay for lunch before leaving? Haven’t you been missing her and saying she hasn’t visited you for so long? Why did you rush her away as soon as she arrived?"

"Ah, she’s very sensitive, and I feared she might notice something if she stayed too long."

"But you..." Housekeeper Sun hesitated, they had both been living here for over a decade, and he had known her since Miss Yun Yue was three years old.

Miss Yun Yue was naturally intelligent, and she looked just like the young lady did as a child, whom the old master had been searching for so many years.

"Housekeeper Sun, what do you think of her academic performance?" Old Man Bai stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes bright and spirited.

Housekeeper Sun smiled, "Miss Yun Yue is naturally intelligent, with a wit far beyond ordinary people. Even the young lady back then couldn’t compare, so her grades definitely won’t be bad."

"That’s good. After her college entrance exams, she is sure to attend university in Beijing, and then we can go back. It’s time to put our family in order and pave the way for her." His hair was gray, and his eyes, though aged, were spirited with authority. He spoke with a straight back, his voice deep and forceful.

Housekeeper Sun nodded, clenching his fist, feeling somewhat excited inside. It was not in vain that the two of them, master and servant, had lived in seclusion for so long; Heaven hadn’t treated them unfairly and had sent Miss Yun Yue to them.

The old man looked in the direction they had gone. Yun Yue was too outstanding; he actually had no confidence in his heart, fearing she would not want to acknowledge the situation, so he had always kept it a secret.

Mo Fan took her out for a meal and then brought her back to First Middle School.

It was precisely lunchtime now, and there were still many people on the sports field.

The warm sunshine felt quite pleasant as she found a chair, sat back lazily with her headphones on, and started listening to music.

Not far away, on the sports field, Gu Yue and Yang Xing were playing basketball, and Lin Xuanze walked over to join their team.

"I really don’t know what’s going on with the class president lately, he’s been getting so close with those from Class Seven, all chummy and laughing." Zhao Min was somewhat indignant.

Lin Xuanze was good-looking, had excellent academic achievements, and was also the president of the student council. Most importantly, he came from a distinguished family, and she had harbored a secret crush on him for nearly three years.

During that time, she had actually written love letters, but every time, he had thrown them away without a glance.

Liang Qian sneered, "Yun Yue is in Class Seven! It’s perfectly normal for him to be close with them. During the holidays, I checked his gaming stats; he teamed up with those from Class Seven to play ranked matches. Of course, they play well together."

The two of them and Shen Xuan were sitting on another bench nearby, which happened to be right in the middle of the basketball court, so they had a clear view.

"Shen Xuan, Gu Yue is over there, do you want to bring her a bottle of water?" Zhao Min asked, turning her face to the side. Before, whenever Gu Yue played basketball, Shen Xuan would always watch and then hand her water.

Among all the people offering water to Gu Yue, he only accepted Shen Xuan’s.

Shen Xuan pursed her lips, her eyes cold and clear. Gu Yue was just a passerby in her life now, and there probably wouldn’t be any interactions in the future. It was better for her to act distant now to cut his hopes early, rather than have him look for her later.

She and he were never meant to walk the same path.

A girl timidly approached the basketball court with a bottle of water.

"That’s Chen Fen; it seems she’s had a long-time crush on Young Master Gu," Zhao Min noticed Chen Fen instantly. Even though Chen Fen was wearing a mask, the bashfulness in her eyes was unmistakable.

"Water for me," Shen Xuan took an unopened bottle of mineral water from Zhao Min and walked onto the basketball court.

Her steps were graceful and proud, her chin slightly lifted displaying her fair swan-like neck, her eyes gleamed with a hint of amusement. She glanced briefly at Chen Fen beside her, withdrew her gaze indifferently, and lightly shook the water bottle in her hand towards the basketball court.

Chen Fen, already introverted and lacking confidence, stood next to Shen Xuan, dazzling in her presence. Everyone on the basketball court turned their eyes toward her.

Feeling nervous and timid, Chen Fen concealed her water bottle inside her jacket, admiring Shen Xuan’s confident and beautiful face, and shyly lowered her gaze, quickly leaving the basketball court in a flustered manner.

Liang Qian and Zhao Min had been watching Chen Fen the whole time; they saw every move and look, judging harshly. She dared to compete with Shen Xuan for attention, not even looking at herself to see if she matched up.

They wouldn’t express interest in anything Shen Xuan liked, let alone show it. That’s why, even though Gu Yue was handsome, smart, and the campus heartthrob, they felt no attraction to him.

Because they didn’t dare. They needed to please Shen Xuan to secure their family’s interests, to get more pocket money, to raise their own status.
