Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 498: The Martial Artistsʼ Grand Gathering

Liu Junyi hadnʼt quite reached the level of telepathic connection with Ye Fei like Ye Yunqi had, but she was pretty close.

And with what she knew about Wei Qing, she got what Ye Fei was hinting at. She grinned and said, ”I donʼt have any other special privileges, but getting a special talent from another special forces unit? No problem. Iʼll make it happen as soon as I take office!”

Liu Yiru had no idea about Wei Qing, and hearing their conversation, she just shook her head with a smile, thinking they were being childish.

”You guys, the commander-in-chief hasnʼt even settled into the position yet, and youʼre already thinking about using it for personal gain,” she teased.

”Yeah, good thing you didnʼt go into politics, or weʼd probably have two major corrupt officials in the family!” Ye Siqi joked, feeling the relaxed atmosphere.

”Siqi, donʼt be so disrespectful and joke around with your aunt like that!” Shui Ying scolded. Although Liu Junyi wasnʼt much older than Ye Siqi, there was still a generation gap.

Coming from a reclusive martial arts sect that valued ancient etiquette, Shui Ying thought Ye Siqi was going a bit too far.

”Shui Ying, youʼre wrong there,” Liu Yiru said with a smile. ”Weʼve always been like this at home, and everyoneʼs used to it. If you keep being so formal, Junyi and Siqi are going to feel awkward.”

”Yeah, Mom Shui, weʼve always been pretty informal in our family,” Ye Fei chimed in, seizing the opportunity to hold Shui Yingʼs hand and nuzzle his head into her ample chest, gently rubbing against it. Then, in a low voice only she could hear, he said, ”If you keep laying down so many rules, I might have to enforce some ʼfamily disciplineʼ and give you a few thousand lashes!”

Even though she knew he was just teasing her in front of her daughter, Shui Yingʼs body couldnʼt resist him at all. Soon, she was breathing heavily, and when she heard about the ”family discipline,” her body shuddered and a certain place grew damp. She almost wished he would just give her those lashes right away.

To avoid embarrassing herself, Shui Ying forced herself to push Ye Fei away, her face slightly flushed as she apologized to her daughter, ”Siqi, Iʼm sorry.”

”Mom, what are you talking about? Youʼre my mom; itʼs your job to discipline me,” Ye Siqi laughed.

”Yeah, weʼre all family here, no need for formalities. But thatʼs exactly why we should focus on having fun at home. Itʼs not like weʼre in one of those super-strict sects,” Ye Fei said with a smile, and he whispered to Shui Ying again, ”Mom Shui, you and Mom Ru can be pretty uninhibited when you work together, right? Why are you being so stiff now?”

Shui Yingʼs face turned even redder, but she knew they were right. She also enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere at home.

She nodded and said, ”Alright, you little rascal, youʼre lecturing me now. Just you wait!” Then she pounced on Ye Fei, tickling him in all the sensitive spots, but she took the chance to whisper in his ear, ”Naughty son-husband, you made me feel so frustrated just now. I want you so badly!”

Her internal strength wasnʼt quite up to the level of transmitting her voice like that yet.

”Iʼll come to you tonight!” Ye Fei chuckled, then shouted, ”Sis, save me!” He threw himself onto Ye Siqi, pulling his mom and aunt into the fray as she tried to dodge.

The five of them tumbled around, play-fighting for a while. Ye Fei got to take plenty of innocent liberties, while the four women ended up with flushed faces and racing hearts.

Liu Yiru, Liu Junyi, and Shui Ying were reminiscing about the intimate moments theyʼd shared with him, while Ye Siqi was both flustered and reluctant to let go of the tingling sensation she felt when he accidentally—or maybe not so accidentally—touched her chest a few times.

After calming down a bit, Liu Junyi suddenly remembered something and said, ”Oh, right, I almost forgot. I brought some important news this time.”

”What news?” Ye Fei and the others immediately stopped fooling around. If it was important enough for Liu Junyi to mention, it had to be something big.

”Well, itʼs not that big of a deal for us, actually,” Liu Junyi laughed, seeing their serious expressions. ”Thereʼs going to be a grand gathering for martial artists in the northwest in a few days. I heard the Martial Alliance was invited too, and theyʼre supposed to bring some affiliated families and sects along.”

”Ah, so thatʼs what it is. Yeah, itʼs about time for it to happen,” Shui Ying nodded knowingly.

Liu Yiru, who had never heard of it before, asked, ”Shui Ying, you know about this too?”

Shui Ying smiled faintly and said, ”Itʼs not just knowing—itʼs been happening every ten years for quite some time. It used to be only for reclusive sects and prestigious families, but I didnʼt expect the Martial Alliance to be invited this time.”

”Should we join in?” Ye Fei asked. Honestly, he was pretty eager to check it out. He was confident in his abilities, but he knew there were always people out there stronger than him. He wanted to see how he stacked up against the top martial artists, like that legendary founder of the Martial Alliance who was said to have reached the Great Perfection level.

Since Liu Fengyi and Liu Junyi were involved in politics and the military and couldnʼt really participate in these martial affairs, Liu Yiru was the head of the Liu family in charge of external matters.

But she didnʼt make a decision right away. Instead, she looked at her son and asked, ”What do you think?”

From his momʼs eyes, Ye Fei knew she was treating him more like her man now, expecting him to take the lead on such important matters. So he didnʼt hesitate and said, ”I want to go and see for myself.”

”Youʼre thinking just like Uncle Zhou,” Liu Junyi chuckled upon hearing Ye Feiʼs answer.

”Uncle Zhou?” Liu Yiru was puzzled and asked, ”He wants us to participate in this too?”

Liu Junyi nodded and explained, ”Yeah, he said if our Liu family wants to grow and develop, we canʼt just stay where we are. We need to explore more opportunities. Although most of those reclusive sects donʼt get involved in worldly affairs, they still have connections with the military and political circles. If we can get to know these forces and even make friends with them, it will be very beneficial for our future development.”

Liu Yiru sighed softly and said, ”Uncle Zhou has our best interests at heart, even though heʼs in the capital.”

Ye Fei felt a pang in his heart and his brows furrowed slightly.

Then his aunt added, ”Oh, almost forgot. Uncle Zhou said heʼll drop by the military district and then come over for lunch today.”
