71: Chapter 71 [Now the Relationship Gets Complicated!]

71 -71 [Now the Relationship Gets Complicated!]

Inside the Ye family’s villa, Ye Tianchen and Qi Ruxue were both standing in the middle of the hall.

At this moment, Ye Tianchen maintained a slightly backward-tilting posture, while Qi Ruxue leaned forward, her hands grasping Ye Tianchen’s left and right hands, their lips pressed together on each other’s.

Both of them stood there nervously, motionless, unsure of what to do, as the scene had unfolded far too suddenly, especially in front of Luo Yan and Ye Qianwen, leaving everyone somewhat at a loss.

Time seemed to have stopped.

Ye Tianchen and Qi Ruxue stared at each other with wide eyes, while Luo Yan and Ye Qianwen had their mouths open wide, eyes bulging with surprise as they watched the scene unfold.

No one had expected that, at this moment, Ye Tianchen and Qi Ruxue would end up kissing.

It really seemed like fate was playing tricks on these two who were always at odds!

Slap!

A loud smack pulled Ye Tianchen, Luo Yan, and Ye Qianwen back to reality.

Qi Ruxue’s beautiful face turned a deep shade of red from embarrassment, her charm further enhanced by the flush, making her look even more stunning and captivating.

“You big jerk, you’ve gone too far!” Qi Ruxue shouted at Ye Tianchen, her face flushed with anger and her beautiful eyes glaring.

“I…

I’ve gone too far?” Ye Tianchen was still a bit slow to react, and he asked with a stutter.

“Go to hell…”

“Ah!”

Ye Tianchen yelped as Qi Ruxue stomped hard on his foot.

Women’s high-heeled shoes can be quite lethal weapons.

By the time Ye Tianchen recovered, Qi Ruxue had already run upstairs in shame, barged into her bedroom, and shut the door to her room.

“Hey, it was you who lunged at me and kissed me, okay?

I even got slapped and kicked by you, and now you’re acting wronged?” Ye Tianchen regained his senses and shouted loudly toward the second floor.

To say that Ye Tianchen wasn’t nervous would be impossible.

During the apocalypse, although Ye Tianchen had many beautiful women by his side and wasn’t a stranger to women, having even slept with super beauties, in this life, Ye Tianchen had never thought about the matters between men and women.

Despite having met several impressive women, Ye Tianchen felt no attraction toward them—not that he felt nothing, but rather that he had been reborn into this life wanting only to protect his loved ones and truly enjoy life, without considering getting a girlfriend for the time being.

Ye Tianchen’s nerves and delayed reaction were because he couldn’t imagine that he would end up kissing Qi Ruxue.

Since their meeting at the Sea King Group, it was as if he had become entangled with this wild young lady, bickering whenever they met, each unable to stand the other and exchanging verbal jabs.

Now that they had unexpectedly kissed, how were they supposed to interact in the future?

Would they continue to quarrel like adversaries whenever they saw each other?

That would likely become awkward, wouldn’t it?

Seeing her son Ye Tianchen stunned and standing there awkwardly, Luo Yan didn’t overthink the situation.

Instead, she started chuckling inwardly.

This unexpected kiss might bring Ye Tianchen and Qi Ruxue closer together.

The potential development between Ye Tianchen and Qi Ruxue was certainly worth looking forward to, and something not to be missed!

“Son, well done.

Seize the opportunity.

Ruxue is a truly remarkable girl,” Luo Yan said with a smile, patting Ye Tianchen on the shoulder.

“Brother, I really didn’t see it coming.

You’re so straightforward.

Really impressive!

I’m blushing just watching from the side!” Ye Qianwen also chuckled and commented.

“Mom, little sister, this wasn’t my doing…

Sis, didn’t you scream about a cockroach?

Are you telling me you did it on purpose, you little rascal?” Ye Tianchen finally remembered that just when he was in a standoff with Qi Ruxue, it had been his sister, Ye Qianwen, who screamed about a cockroach, scaring Qi Ruxue into leaping towards him and inadvertently leading to their kiss.

“Hehe, bro, let’s not talk about whether it was real or not.

You should thank me, right?

If I hadn’t shouted, how could you have experienced that sweet kiss?

I think you owe me some pocket money,” Ye Qianwen said playfully with a smile.

Ye Tianchen looked at his little sister Ye Qianwen, slightly annoyed but realizing she might have done it deliberately.

He knocked lightly on her head and said, “You still want pocket money?

A little child meddles in adults’ affairs, showing no respect.

Mom, I suggest we cut her pocket money in half.”

“Brother, you can’t treat me like this!

I helped you, and you’re being ungrateful…” Ye Qianwen said, looking unjustly wronged.

Seeing Ye Tianchen teasing his sister, Luo Yan smiled and said, “I prepared dinner tonight.

In light of Qianwen’s valuable shout earlier, let’s give her an extra 200 yuan a month as a reward.”

“Oh yeah, Mom’s the best!

Big brother is so stingy, not gentlemanly at all…” Ye Qianwen cheered, making a face at her big brother Ye Tianchen.

Faced with his mother Luo Yan and his sister Ye Qianwen looking so happy, Ye Tianchen genuinely didn’t know what to say.

They had misunderstood his relationship with Qi Ruxue, and now, with this unexpected kiss, it seemed highly likely that a problem could indeed arise from it.

Would his mother Luo Yan end up forcing him to marry Qi Ruxue?

Just the thought made Ye Tianchen shudder.

During the apocalypse, despite being surrounded by beauties, he had been free to come and go as he pleased, loving the single life.

The saying “marriage is the tomb of love” was something even the Ye Tianchen who came from the apocalypse understood all too well.

Ye Tianchen sighed and sat on the sofa in the living room to watch TV, while his mother and younger sister started to get busy in the kitchen, after all, there was still dinner to be eaten.

He had just sat down and cracked a few melon seeds when the landline phone in the living room rang.

Ye Tianchen casually picked up the phone and said, “Who’s this?”

“Tianchen, it’s me, Grandpa!” Ye Yuanshan’s voice came from the other end.

“Oh, Grandpa, what’s up?” Though Ye Tianchen wasn’t very close to Ye Yuanshan, the latter was, after all, the head of the Ye family and deserved respect due to his age.

If it were those scumbags Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo calling, Ye Tianchen would not have been so courteous.

“I heard you had a fight with Qin Heng of the Qin family?” asked Ye Yuanshan.

“Yes, Grandpa, you don’t have to worry about this.

I will handle it myself and make sure it doesn’t affect any member of the Ye family,” responded Ye Tianchen calmly.

“Hehe, Tianchen, that’s not what I mean.

I just wanted to tell you that no matter what you do, Grandpa will support you.

Though I haven’t paid enough attention to your family over the years, we are still family, bound by blood.

I’d like to see you bring honor to the Ye family, so go ahead with confidence!” Ye Yuanshan said with a chuckle on the phone.

Ye Tianchen was stunned for a moment, as he hadn’t expected the old man to say such things.

Surprised and slightly moved, especially by the phrase “bound by blood,” he knew that at the end of the day they were family, and since Ye Yuanshan was an elder, his words showed genuine affection for his own people.

“Don’t worry, Grandpa.

I can’t promise to bring glory to the Ye family, but at least I won’t disgrace it,” said Ye Tianchen with a smile.

“Good, that’s good.

Our Ye family has been looked down upon.

I’m old and it doesn’t matter much to me, but our family was once powerful and never less than any other clans, which makes this old man here feel somewhat indignant…” Ye Yuanshan spoke sincerely from his heart.

“Hehe, Grandpa, get some rest early.

You’re not young anymore, take good care of yourself and don’t think too much.

I have a feeling that the Ye family’s fortune is about to change, we’re going to shine!” Ye Tianchen said with a laugh.

“Great, great!

Tianchen, go for it, Grandpa supports you!” exclaimed an excited Ye Yuanshan.

“Alright, Grandpa, goodbye, good night!”

After hanging up the phone, a slight smile appeared on Ye Tianchen’s lips.

His conversation with Grandpa hadn’t been exceptionally pleasant, but he thought of his father, Ye Hong, who would be extremely happy to know that the old man was suddenly so concerned about their branch of the family.

What is life all about?

Isn’t it about living happily with family and making them happy?

Whether it’s for fame and fortune or to become an official and get rich, it’s all for living a better life and happiness.

Therefore, seeing his parents and sister happy and smiling was a delight for Ye Tianchen.

“Tianchen, who was on the phone?” Luo Yan came out of the kitchen holding a plate of stir-fried pig’s liver and placed it on the dining table before asking.

“It was Grandpa.

I chatted with him for a bit and that was it,” Ye Tianchen said offhandedly.

“Grandpa?

You talked with him?”

Luo Yan was even more surprised to hear her son’s words.

Grandpa Ye Yuanshan had never called before, and tonight he did, and even chatted for a bit with his grandson.

Judging by Ye Tianchen’s expression, it seemed the conversation went quite well.

What was going on?

She remembered that Grandpa Ye Yuanshan had never paid them any attention before, much less shown proactive care.

Surely the sun wasn’t rising from the west now?

“Yeah, it felt pretty good.

Let’s eat, I’m hungry, and this stir-fried pig’s liver looks delicious!”

Ye Tianchen chuckled merrily as he walked to the dining table, ready to begin eating, but his mother slapped his hand away and said, “All you think about is food, go call Ruxue down for dinner.

“I won’t call her, you or my sister can do it.

I don’t want to bother with her,” Ye Tianchen flatly refused.

Ever since Qi Ruxue gave him a slap and a kick after he had innocently kissed her while she was panicking about a cockroach, she had rushed to her room on the second floor, slammed the door, and hadn’t come out since, leaving Ye Tianchen still brooding.

It had only been a sudden peck because she had thrown herself at him out of fear, and she reacted with a slap and a kick.

Where was the justice in that?

Although it’s said that a good man does not quarrel with women, and he didn’t want to argue with the wild Miss Qi Ruxue, Ye Tianchen didn’t want to speak to this woman anymore; wild women were trouble he couldn’t afford.
