Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 1048: Chapter 1048: The Tang Sect’s Celebration

After thanking the supermarket owner, Ye Fei followed the main road straight to the town center, where he indeed found a sizable manor.

Though it couldn’t compare to his own, it was more than capable of housing hundreds of people comfortably.

In front of the manor’s grand entrance was a small plaza, now filled with parked cars. Guests were being welcomed in one after another, clearly arriving to offer their congratulations. However, what struck Ye Fei as odd was that all the license plates began with the character Sichuan.

As a major martial arts sect, the Tang Sect should have chosen an auspicious date and sent out invitations to martial artists from all over to attend the young master’s wedding.

Yet, all the guests seemed to be locals, and the timing, right after the New Year, was quite peculiar.

But these were other people’s affairs, and Ye Fei didn’t feel it was his place or even worth the trouble to get involved.

What truly troubled him was how to enter the manor. He had seen the guests present their invitations at the entrance.

Without one, he would have to send a message to be announced, which would spoil the surprise he had planned.

Of course, Ye Fei could have simply teleported inside. However, as one of the top martial arts sects, the Tang Sect undoubtedly had many reclusive masters.

The energy fluctuations from teleportation would be hard to conceal from them.

If he were mistaken for a provocateur, it would be embarrassing, even if he wasn’t afraid of any confrontation.

While Ye Fei was contemplating his options and parking his car to observe the situation, someone else decided for him.

A young man who appeared to be in charge among the welcoming disciples at the entrance spotted Ye Fei, quickly whispered something to a companion, and then strode over.

From a distance, he called out loudly, ”Master Ye’s arrival truly honors the Tang Sect!”

”Do I know you?” Ye Fei looked at the approaching young man, trying to recall any previous encounter, but he couldn’t place him at all.

”I was among those who accompanied our Sect Leader to the martial arts conference. I had the privilege of witnessing Master Ye’s eloquence and bravery as you debated with the crowd,” the young man said, then gestured for Ye Fei to enter.

”Please come in, Master. I’ve already sent someone to inform the two young ladies.”

Well, so much for the surprise! Ye Fei rolled his eyes but didn’t blame the young man, who had good intentions. He then asked curiously, ”Two young ladies? I thought Sect Leader Tang only had Tang Xin as his daughter?”

”The other is Miss Tang Yu. The Sect Leader has now acknowledged her as his daughter, making her the second young lady of our Tang Sect,” the young disciple explained as he accompanied Ye Fei inside.

”I see,” Ye Fei said casually, but inwardly he chuckled. Tang Minghao was truly a shrewd individual. Although his daughter was now with Ye Fei, it was common knowledge that Ye Fei favored Tang Yu.

So, Tang Minghao seized the opportunity to strengthen their bond. Tang Yu, who had grown up with Tang Xin and had only Tang Minghao and his wife as elders, easily accepted the proposal.

As they walked through the entrance, Ye Fei noticed that while the manor’s architecture was modern, the surroundings were serene, giving it an atmosphere reminiscent of an ancient martial arts sect.

”Master Ye, would you like to see the young ladies first or meet the Sect Leader?” the young disciple asked.

”Well...” Ye Fei hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, ”That’s not really up to me to decide.”

The young disciple was taken aback for a moment, then followed Ye Fei’s gaze to see four stunning young ladies approaching in a line. He immediately understood the situation.

Being perceptive, he quickly excused himself, saying, ”Since I’m no longer needed to guide you, I’ll take my leave, Master.”

”Sure,” Ye Fei responded absentmindedly, already striding forward to meet the young ladies.

They soon reached each other, and Tang Xin was the first to throw herself into Ye Fei’s arms, hugging him tightly with excitement and relief. ”Ye Fei, it is you! I thought they were just teasing me!”

”Who in the Tang Sect would dare to deceive you, the eldest miss?” Ye Fei joked, holding Tang Xin’s soft and delicate body. Tang Xin, once a spoiled and willful young lady, had become very affectionate with Ye Fei after they got together.

Though Tang Xin was reluctant to let go of Ye Fei after days of longing, she remembered her sisters and pulled away from his embrace with a smile. ”Don’t play favorites.”

Ye Fei laughed heartily and went on to hug the shy Tang Yu and Miao Chan, and even Gu Shishi, who hadn’t yet consummated their relationship. Gu Shishi’s entire family had been brutally murdered, leaving her orphaned and alone. Fortunately, she had found a caring master in Ye Fei and three good friends in Tang Xin and the others, which had helped her recover from the pain of losing her family.

After hugging each of the girls, Ye Fei said, ”Where is Uncle Tang? Take me to see him.” Now that Tang Xin was his woman, Tang Minghao was effectively his father-in-law, and it was only proper to pay his respects.

”He’s over there, receiving guests. Let’s go see him,” Tang Xin said, though she seemed a bit displeased.

Ye Fei had a question on his mind and asked, ”By the way, when did your Tang Sect get a young master? Is he your brother or your younger brother?”

”Humph, I certainly don’t have such siblings!” Tang Xin huffed, as if the very idea was an insult, her face twisted with disgust.

”What’s going on?” Ye Fei looked puzzled and turned to the other three girls for an explanation.

Tang Yu and Miao Chan were both reserved and found it hard to articulate the situation, but Gu Shishi stepped in. ”This young master isn’t Sect Leader Tang’s child, nor is he even from the Tang family. He’s just the last disciple brought back by the Grand Elder.”

”If he’s not from the Tang family, how can he be the young master?” Ye Fei frowned.

”And what about this Grand Elder? I’ve known a bit about these martial arts sects, but I’ve never heard of such a position in any of them.”
