Bab 152: Chapter 152: Dividing the Spoils on the Spot (Second update, asking for monthly tickets)

Ye Weiming left the Duke of Deer Mansion, satisfied with the Iron Arhat and said to Yin Bukui with a touch of helplessness, "Wei Xiaobao seems a bit... off today. I remember he used to be quite sociable."

"But when he just came out of the dungeon, he deliberately ignored me to flatter you, with no regard for how you might perceive it. Even when I reminded him, he remained unchanged. It seems a bit out of character."

Hearing this, Yin Bukui chuckled, explaining, "Actually, this is why he's smart."

Before Ye Weiming could seek further clarification, Yin Bukui suddenly nudged him with an elbow, "Tell me honestly, when Wei Xiaobao shamelessly complimented you, neglecting my presence, how did it truly feel? Satisfying, wasn't it?"

"Well..." Ye Weiming laughed, "Ha ha... for someone as modest, elegant, and upright as me, how could I ever..."

"Tell me the truth!"

"Alright, I did feel a bit smug."
