Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 591: The Approach of Farewell

Tang Minghaoʼs agreement wasnʼt just a playful nod to the younger generationʼs antics. It stemmed from his trust in Tang Yu, Ye Feiʼs promise to keep the arrangement private, and the belief that experiencing a different role would be good for his daughter.

There was also the fact that Tang Minghao genuinely hoped his daughter and Ye Fei would become a couple. Seeing them bicker didnʼt alarm him—it delighted him.

As someone who had been young once, he knew that a little rivalry could strengthen a relationship. Tang Xin and Ye Fei didnʼt seem to be truly at odds; they were more like a pair of bickering lovers.

”Dad, you…” Tang Xin was stunned that her father had agreed. She felt a mix of frustration and panic, realizing she had truly lost to Ye Fei. She shot him a glare, but Ye Fei only looked more smug.

Tang Yu, however, smiled knowingly. Seeing the expressions on both girlsʼ faces, Tang Minghao felt even more confident in his decision. He smiled and said, ”Then itʼs settled. Tang Xin, youʼll need to behave from now on, understand? No more acting like a spoiled young lady.”

”I…” Tang Xin was surprised to find that she wasnʼt entirely opposed to the idea. It was mostly her pride that was bruised. She opened her mouth to object again.

But Ye Fei cut her off, grinning. ”What, are you planning to go back on your word?”

”I always keep my promises! How could I go back on my word?” Tang Xin huffed. ”A maid it is, then. Itʼs not like I canʼt handle it!”

”Exactly. Just think about how Tang Yu does it, and youʼll pick it up in no time,” Ye Fei teased.

Tang Xin snorted and pouted, but she fell silent, her demeanor suddenly resembling that of a proper maid.

Tang Minghao wasnʼt bothered by his daughterʼs sulking. He believed that a little hardship would be good for her growth. Moreover, he trusted that Ye Fei wouldnʼt truly mistreat her. He suspected Ye Fei would come to care for her just as much as he did for Tang Yu.

Now that he saw Ye Fei as a potential son-in-law, Tang Minghao felt more at ease. He leaned closer to Ye Fei and asked in a low voice, ”Nephew, can you tell me the truth? Was Bai Yingshi serious when she said she wasnʼt your match?”

This question had been on his mind for days. Like everyone else, Tang Minghao was skeptical, but he couldnʼt shake the feeling that Bai Yingshiʼs claim wasnʼt entirely baseless.

Hearing this, Tang Xin and Tang Yu also perked up, eager to hear the answer.

Ye Fei smiled and said, ”She exaggerated. In terms of martial arts, Iʼm still a step behind her. But my internal energy is stronger, so in a real fight, weʼd be evenly matched.”

This answer was a mix of truth and lies. Ye Fei didnʼt mention that their equality was only within the confines of Tianshan. He wasnʼt distrustful of the Tang family, but he felt a subconscious need to keep his true strength hidden.

Even so, the three were stunned. Bai Yingshi was the undisputed top martial artist in the world. For Ye Fei, at such a young age, to be on par with her was astounding. Tang Minghao was overjoyed, feeling he had made the right decision.

Tang Yu felt a surge of pride, as she was already Ye Feiʼs woman. Tang Xin, however, couldnʼt quite explain why she felt the same way.

With Tang Xinʼs matter settled, Ye Fei bid farewell to Tang Minghao and took the two girls to the central stage. The thousand or so martial artists represented hundreds of sects, each needing to leave their contact information with Ye Zhilin. Liu Yiru and the others were still busy handling the registrations.

Watching them interact with the martial artists, Ye Fei felt a twinge of discomfort, but seeing how they enjoyed it and how respectful everyone was toward them because of Ye Zhilin, he relaxed. He didnʼt step in to help, choosing instead to stand by and watch.

After a while, most of the sects had finished registering. Now, only Liu Yiru and a few others were helping Ye Zhilin with the final tasks. The rest of the women had some free time.

Zhu Yuyan approached Ye Fei with Shen Huiya and Jiang Manjun, saying, ”Everything here is done. Weʼll head back now, pack up, and meet you in Wanghai as soon as possible.”

”What? So soon?” Ye Fei was taken aback, feeling reluctant to part. He glanced at the darkening sky and said, ”Itʼs almost night. Why not rest here and leave together tomorrow?”

”No, with so many people around, staying another night wonʼt make much difference. Weʼll see you in Wanghai,” Shen Huiya said with a charming smile, giving Ye Fei a playful wink.

Ye Fei felt a flutter in his heart at Shen Huiyaʼs flirtatious demeanor. She was already teasing him, but with so many people around, there was little he could do about it.

”Yes, weʼll see you in Wanghai,” Zhu Yuyan agreed. She understood Shen Huiyaʼs intentions perfectly. She was even more reluctant to part with Ye Fei than he was with her. But as the leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect, she had responsibilities to attend to. She wanted to return quickly so she could reunite with Ye Fei in Wanghai and never be apart again.

Jiang Manjun, however, was confused. ”Mom, Aunt Huiya, whatʼs this about Wanghai? Are we moving there?”

”Yes,” Zhu Yuyan said with a smile. ”Your aunt and I have decided to move the Heavenly Demon Sectʼs headquarters to Wanghai. Itʼs where your junior brotherʼs Lingyun Society is based. Itʼll be easier for us to support each other there. What do you think?”

”Oh,” Jiang Manjun nodded, instinctively looking at Ye Fei.

Ye Fei smiled and asked, ”What, Senior Sister, donʼt want to come? If thatʼs the case, you donʼt have to move. Iʼll visit you often.”
