Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 164: Chapter 163 [Is Ling Yuxun Also Going to Move into the Ye Family’s House?]

Ye Tianchen never dreamed that his mother Luo Yan and his little sister Ye Qianwen would actually take a liking to Ling Yuxun, wanting her to be his girlfriend. He couldn’t fathom what his mom and sister were up to. Why did it seem that every time they saw a girl, they wanted to set her up as his girlfriend? Were they really that worried he’d remain single?

”No way? That’s a bit too much, don’t you think? I’m only twenty this year, in the prime time for eating, drinking, and being merry. Who has the mood for a girlfriend? Besides, with my charm, do you think it’s hard for me to find a girlfriend?” Ye Tianchen gently knocked on Ye Qianwen’s head as he spoke.

”This person... Mom and I are actually a bit worried...” Ye Qianwen said while making a face at Ye Tianchen and then ran off to the side, looking incredibly cute.

He really had no way to deal with his mom and sister. He was only twenty, and yet they seemed anxious to get him married. He couldn’t understand what his mother and sister were thinking. They actually stood united on this front, constantly thinking about getting him married!

”Tianchen, come here and chat with Yuxun. You two haven’t seen each other for many years, you must have a lot to talk about!” Luo Yan deliberately winked at Ye Tianchen, as if to shout for Ye Tianchen to come over and cozy up to Ling Yuxun to foster closer ties.

Ye Tianchen could clearly see his mother’s intention, thinking that Ling Yuxun and he were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Although they hadn’t seen each other for many years, they had the foundation of childhood emotions. Maybe they really could end up together, and once he confirmed a girlfriend, he feared what would follow would be his mom pressuring him to get married.

”You guys chat, I’ll watch TV for a bit. It’s getting interesting!” Ye Tianchen casually said.

”You cheeky boy, come here when I call you, without all the backtalk.” Luo Yan glared at Ye Tianchen as she spoke.

Seeing his mother Luo Yan like this, Ye Tianchen was actually a bit scared. The two women in the world he dared not offend were Luo Yan and Ye Qianwen, his closest family members. Of course, Ye Tianchen could only be good to them. This was the first time his mom had scolded him so loudly; it seemed that she really did hold Ling Yuxun in high regard.

”What is it, mom? Just tell me what’s up!” Ye Tianchen walked over to where his mother Luo Yan was sitting and sat down, saying grumpily.

”Sit here, don’t leave, have a chat with me and Yuxun!” Luo Yan said sternly.

”Alright, alright, I get it. Ling Biti, do you want an apple? I’ll peel one for you?” Ye Tianchen said helplessly as he looked at Ling Yuxun.

”No need, thank you. I’ll chat with Auntie a bit and then I’ll head back!” Ling Yuxun smiled and said to Luo Yan.

”Going back? Yuxun, it’s too late, and it’s not safe for a girl by herself. Stay at the Ye family’s house for the night. We have a spare room, or you can sleep with Qianwen. Just make a call home to let them know!” Luo Yan hurriedly said upon hearing that Ling Yuxun was planning to go home.

Actually, Luo Yan was being kind-hearted. Mainly considering it was almost midnight, which isn’t safe for a girl alone. From what Ye Tianchen could tell, his mother wanted Ling Yuxun to stay the night to give him a chance to develop a deeper relationship with her.

”Ah? Auntie, I have a car. I can drive home when it’s time; it’s fine!” Ling Yuxun said, also feeling a bit awkward.

”It’s so late, don’t go back, it’s too dangerous. Qianwen, what are you waiting for? Go tidy up the spare room so your Sister Yuxun can sleep there tonight!” Luo Yan said with a smile.

”Ah? Okay, okay...”

Ye Qianwen was also startled, not expecting her mother to have Ling Yuxun stay over. Then she mischievously smiled, and before Ling Yuxun could respond, she dashed up to the second floor of the mansion and began to tidy up the room.

Ye Tianchen felt almost like he was going to collapse. Sometimes his mother and sister seemed much more mature than him, yet at times like these, they simply couldn’t be depended on. Wasn’t it too abrupt to have Ling Yuxun stay over without warning? The most crucial point was, the room Ye Qianwen went to prepare, that Qi Ruxue once stayed in, wasn’t it somewhat ironic? It was simply laughably absurd.

This made Ye Tianchen imagine a terrifying scenario: the vacant room in the Ye family’s mansion had already housed the beautiful Qi Ruxue, and now Ling Yuxun would soon move in. How many more beauties would stay there before it came to an end?

At this point, not only was Ye Tianchen stupefied, but Ling Yuxun also felt at a loss. She had initially come over just to drop something off for Ye Tianchen and to see Luo Yan out of politeness to her elder. She had not anticipated spending the night at the Ye family’s house, but given Luo Yan and Ye Qianwen’s enthusiasm, she found herself unable to refuse.

”Yuxun, we haven’t seen each other for many years. I remember you were very well-behaved as a child, and you’ve grown up even more beautiful. Stay for one night, keep Auntie company!” Luo Yan said with a smile.

”Well, alright then, I don’t want to impose, Auntie!” Ling Yuxun replied with a smile.

Thus, Ling Yuxun ended up staying the night at the Ye family’s house. Ye Tianchen collapsed on the nearby sofa, not that he wasn’t welcoming Ling Yuxun as a guest, but because his mother Luo Yan’s intention was clear: to make Ling Yuxun stay over to give him and Ling Yuxun more time to bond. This really felt like he couldn’t find a girlfriend on his own, pressing his mom to look everywhere for him!

”Yuxun, make yourself at home, no need to stand on ceremony. I still remember when you and Tianchen were little. You used to play bride and groom and said you’d get married when you grew up, which really delighted us!” Luo Yan couldn’t help but laugh as she spoke.

Hearing Luo Yan’s words, Ling Yuxun’s beautiful face flushed, and Ye Tianchen also bolted upright from the sofa, thinking to himself that his mother was really something. Bringing up the most embarrassing stories about him and Ling Yuxun from their childhood — when they were just kids imitating scenes from TV shows, was perfectly normal. Being reminded of them as adults was indeed a bit cringe-worthy.

”Hmm, Mom, go get some fruit for Yuxun to eat, I’ll chat with her a bit!” Ye Tianchen broke the awkward situation and told his mom, Luo Yan.

”Oh, sure, you guys chat, I’ll be right back!”

Luo Yan also felt that she had perhaps touched on a sensitive topic, causing Yuxun’s face to blush, but seeing Yuxun’s reaction, Luo Yan was actually quite pleased inside, as a reaction indicated that Yuxun still remembered her childhood and felt something about it.

Seeing that Luo Yan had left, Ye Tianchen hurriedly sat down next to Ling Yuxun, and they almost spoke at the same time.

”You...”

”I...”

”You first!”

”You first!”

”You’re not really planning to stay over at my house, are you?” Ye Tianchen asked nervously.

”Hey, make it clear, it was your mom who insisted on having me stay over. Qianwen has even gone up to prepare the room; what am I supposed to do?” Ling Yuxun said, rolling her eyes at Ye Tianchen.

”The thing is, my mom’s intentions are not really about the wine, you understand?” Ye Tianchen asked irritably.

”I can tell, your mom and little sister are worried you won’t find a girlfriend. It seems their worry is totally justified. With the way you are, forget about getting a girlfriend, anyone who befriends you, with no emotional intelligence, would be infuriated to death!” Ling Yuxun couldn’t help but snicker, seemingly reveling in the drama.

”That has nothing to do with you. The key now is not to let my mom misunderstand our relationship, understand? If the misunderstanding deepens, it would break my mom’s heart if I later say you and I are not boyfriend and girlfriend!”

”Didn’t know you were such a mama’s boy. So, what do we do?”

Ling Yuxun had completely switched roles now. Initially, she was a bit worried about staying over at the Ye family’s place. Even though the Ling family had a good relationship with the Ye family, and Aunt Luo Yan was very nice to her now, staying over was still a bit awkward. But seeing Ye Tianchen so nervous, Ling Yuxun relaxed, looking on with amusement.

”You leave right now, and I’ll say you had an emergency. That way, my mom won’t say anything!” Ye Tianchen quickly suggested.

”Okay but... huh? Wait, you’re making it sound like you don’t welcome me to visit your home, like you’re rushing me out!” Ling Yuxun suddenly made a very gloomy face, staring intently at Ye Tianchen.

”Is...is that important? What’s important is not letting my mom misunderstand the relationship between the two of us. You don’t want to leave things unclear, do you? Come on, let’s go!”

As he spoke, Ye Tianchen forcefully pulled Ling Yuxun up from the couch, relentlessly pushing her toward the villa’s main entrance. Ling Yuxun also picked up her bag, carefully making her way to the villa’s main door.

Just as Ye Tianchen had opened the villa’s main door, preparing to see Ling Yuxun off, Luo Yan came out of the kitchen with a plate of fruit, spotting Ye Tianchen and Ling Yuxun heading out and couldn’t help asking, ”Where are you two heading?”

”Oh, Yuxun, she... her family has a bit of an issue, she just got a call, so she needs to rush back right now!” Ye Tianchen laughed nervously as he explained.

”Really? What happened?” Luo Yan asked with concern.

”Oh, it’s nothing serious, Auntie. I’ll come and visit next time. I’ll head off now!” Ling Yuxun said with a smile.

”Well, sure, be careful on the way, Tianchen, see Yuxun off!” Luo Yan told her son, Ye Tianchen.

”Okay, Mom, go to sleep, I will lock up later!”

Having said that, Ye Tianchen hurriedly walked Ling Yuxun out of the villa. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to qidian.com to vote and support. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
