Capítulo 17: When Your Grandma Sews, Her Fingers Will Be Pricked
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ye Tianyi followed Shi Jiayi's gaze.
On the grounds of Tensui Academy, Ye Xian'er donned a simple white dress, standing proud like a white lotus atop a snow-capped mountain. At first glance, everyone would always be attracted by her appearance. After a while, they would inadvertently be mesmerized by her light blue eyes.
Until this day, the legend of Ye Xian'er still circulated within Tensui Academy. Like today, Ye Xian'er was merely walking around Tensui Academy while people nearby were already approaching her, hoping to strike up a conversation. People in the distance were also discreetly taking pictures.
Ye Xian'er was certainly a legendary figure, but how many people had actually seen her before? She had not appeared in the eyes of the public for several years now. At most, she would be out grocery shopping, while the rest of her time would be spent in the demon beast domain. People's impression of her remained the same as when she was still young and fresh from several years ago, but it seemed as though now was the time she was most charming.
"So beautiful. She's almost as beautiful as this fairy," Shi Jiayi commended and referred to herself.
Ye Tianyi, "???"
Ye Tianyi looked at Shi Jiayi with a stunned expression.
"What're you looking at? Am I wrong?" Shi Jiayi glared at Ye Tianyi.
"No… not wrong," Ye Tianyi rubbed the tip of his nose and said unfavorably.
This Shi Jiayi was really thick-skinned, although Ye Tianyi did quite fancy such girls.
Both of them had their own charm, beautiful in their own rights.
"Truth be told, I really admire and look up to your sister. It's a pity that she's hindered by someone like you," Shi Jiayi shook her head secretly as she said.
Ye Tianyi, "…"
"But you don't seem to dislike me."
Shi Jiayi looked at Ye Tianyi in surprise.
"Bro, where do all the good opinions about yourself come from? In the entire Tensui Empire, no, in the entire planet, how many geniuses like your sister have been produced? If it weren't for you, she would've been a highly-acclaimed talent. If I were your sister, I would've killed you with one strike, but I'm not. I have no business with you, so I have no right to dislike you. Or at least, from our interaction in the last half hour or so, I have yet to dislike you. But if you buy me some alcohol, I might start to like you."
Ye Tianyi, "…"
"Pah, you just want alcohol."
"Uh-huh, are you buying or not?"
"No money."
"Pah…" Shi Jiayi snorted.
"I'm really broke. I can't even afford a bottle that costs five bucks."
Ye Tianyi shrugged his shoulders. It was not a lie. If it was not for Sis Hong giving him a pack of cigarettes, he would not even have any otherwise.
"Your sister seems to be in trouble."
Shi Jiayi crossed her arms, an intrigued smile appeared at the corners of her lips. She took out a small bottle of wine from her handbag and took a sip.
Ye Tianyi, "…"
What an oddity.
Ye Tianyi looked over and saw Ye Xian'er being surrounded by a few men.
"What the f*ck."
Ye Tianyi rolled up his sleeves and was prepared to rush over.
"Ding… you've triggered the mission [Push Ye Xian'er Down];
"Mission Reward: Realm elevated to the Domain stage;
"Mission Punishment: Drag Points reduced to zero;
"Mission Duration: During the existence of the Scumbag System."
Ye Tianyi, "???"
The f*ck? The heck was this? Was this scumbag system too realistic? Usually, a triggered mission would simply be making someone cry or kissing others. When it came to Ye Xian'er, he was supposed to push her down?
Because it was a scumbag system now, a mission would be triggered whenever he saw a beautiful girl. It was the first time Ye Tianyi saw Ye Xian'er since the system was launched, so it was within reason for the mission to be triggered now.
Wait a minute, this mission reward…
He would achieve the Domain stage immediately?
Qi Establishment stage, Bright Aperture stage, Body Forging stage, Spirit Forging stage, Profound Heaven stage, Order stage, Domain stage, Supremacy stage, Saint stage, and Heavenly Dao stage. Those were the stages in this world. Ye Tianyi was currently at the Body Forging stage. If he pushes her down, he would attain the Domain stage immediately? The f*ck? Even Ye Xian'er was not at the Domain stage yet. Was the Dean of Tensui Academy at the Domain stage?
What was he to do? The mission reward was simply too tempting…
Drug… drug her?
F*ck! He was not a scum! Although this mission was too tempting, he had to leave it for later.
"Ye Xian'er, have you thought about it yet? Just follow me already. There's nothing else in the Wang family but money. My pocket money alone is at least a few hundred thousand a month. If you follow me, I can easily repay all the remaining debts of your Ye family."
Wang Xuan and two other men stood in front of Ye Xian'er, sneering at her.
If it was a few years ago, he would not even dare to raise his head in front of Ye Xian'er because of his low self-esteem. Wang family was not one of the four great families, so how dare he act this way in front of Ye Xian'er? However, everything was different now. In his eyes, Ye Xian'er was no longer the prestigious daughter of the Ye family, but a beautiful woman with debts to pay. Wang Xuan now had the confidence to be arrogant in front of Ye Xian'er.
"Yo, rich, are you? If you're so rich, why don't you burn some money for your old mother during her cremation? The crematorium just called to ask me how hot it needed to be."
Ye Tianyi swaggered over with a cigarette dangling from his mouth and stood in front of Ye Xian'er.
Although Ye Tianyi was quite certain Ye Xian'er was not in any danger, he was angry when he heard the words coming out of that moron. So what if he was rich?
Ye Xian'er stared at Ye Tianyi's back with a slightly dazed expression.
Did he take the initiative to stand in front of her? Was this the brother she knew?
Deep down, she was touched. This sort of thing may seem normal to others, but in her eyes, it was a blissful moment.
"Ye Tianyi, you!!"
Wang Xuan pointed at Ye Tianyi, his face growing ugly. He could not understand how a piece of trash, a b*stard who had nothing, could have the b*lls to scold him?
"What? Whenever you buy food, the price will increase. Whenever your grandpa plays chess, he'll be laughed at. Whenever you play poker, you'll forever be short of a winning card. Your brother will forever have a virus on his computer. Whenever your father plays mahjong, he'll discard the winning tile. Whenever your grandma sews, her fingers will be pricked by the needle," Ye Tianyi's mouth exploded with a litany of curses.
Shi Jiayi, who was following behind him, almost staggered and stumbled.
This brat had a bright future; he was just her type.
"You're asking for death!"
A force erupted from Wang Xuan's body, but it was soon crushed by a stronger force. He instantly turned white as a sheet and sweat poured down his face.
Of course, it was Ye Xian'er, who was standing behind Ye Tianyi. Wang Xuan was nothing but trash in front of Ye Xian'er.
How could she ever allow anyone to bully Ye Tianyi in front of her?
"Fine. Ye Tianyi, just you wait! Let's see if your sister can be by your side all the time!" Wang Xuan pointed at Ye Tianyi with an ugly expression and left.
"Hey, when you get home, remember to
Wang Xuan clenched his fists tightly in anger!
Be patient for a moment, the waves will calm down, take a step back… But the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. How could he possibly bash Ye Tianyi up in front of Ye Xian'er?
"Put out your cigarette."
Under everyone's envious stares, Ye Xian'er took the cigarette dangling from Ye Tianyi's mouth and reduced it into ashes.
"Boohoo… I want Ye Xian'er to boss me around, too."
"Ye Tianyi really doesn't realize or cherish the blissful state he's in."
"Is Ye Xian'er here because of the incident yesterday?"
"…"
The crowd was abuzz with discussion.
"Since you're here, let's look at the CCTV footage together," Shi Jiayi said to Ye Xian'er.
"Mm," Ye Xian'er nodded slightly.
Along the way, Ye Xian'er said, "Sis Eleven, I'll have to trouble you to take care of Lil Yi in the future."
Ye Tianyi looked at the two walking in front of him with a stunned expression.
Did they know each other?
Wow! So that was the reason, no wonder Shi Jiayi seemed to treat him differently. Ye Xian'er probably sent him to Shi Jiayi on purpose.
But, why did she call her Sis Eleven?
Wait a minute…
"You've given me a big headache. His realm is so low, he's difficult to manage, and he likes to cause trouble…" Shi Jiayi sighed.
"Ten pots of premium Drunken Fairy."
"Deal!"
Shi Jiayi's beautiful eyes lit up, revealing a sly smile.
Ye Tianyi, "???"
