Chapter 506 “Indulgence with the Face Slapping (5)”
If not for Ying’er then I wouldn’t throw my face to shame like this either….
“Brother-in-law, Ying’er has been beaten and Ming’er crippled, aren’t you going to do something?” Old Madam Ye gnashes her teeth, “If word gets out that a bitch from the Holy Land is this arrogant at our home, wouldn’t it be the same as shaming you?”
Instead of getting angry, Bai Chang Feng only lit up with glee: “Oh? Someone beat Ye Ying and crippled Ye Ming? Oh do tell, who is it? I must go thank them personally for their efforts.”
“Brother-in-law!”
Livid in her face, What does he mean by that? How can he be helping outsiders over his own family?
“Originally I wanted to keep this thing for Ming’er when he needs it.” Making a cold chuckle when reaching into her pocket, “See this? It’s something Sister left me before her death.”
The statement causes the grandpa to narrow in at the specified jade from the old lady’s hand. Then when he does recognize the item, his pupils shrank at the sight.
“Before my sister passed away, I told her you would not treat me like family after she’s gone. For this reason, she gave me this jade specifically just in case so you would answer a request from me!” Cocking her chin cheekily, “Originally I only wanted you to help Ming’er find a good wife with this when the time comes, but now you left me no choice but to use it for the sake of Ying’er.”
Once Ying’er becomes Bai Zhanpeng’s goddaughter, finding a good wife for Ming’er afterwards would be easy. After all, who wouldn’t want to get a connection with the Medicine Sect? This will kill two birds with one stone!
“Brother-in-law, if you still have feelings for my sister then you must answer my request.”
Based on the silent reaction from the man across from herself, the old lady knew she’s on the right tract. After all, there’s no way Bai Chang Feng would act like this if he didn’t hear about the story before.
“Fine.” Dry in his throat, the man answers with a tinge of sadness in his voice.
As the old lady suspected, the old grandpa readily agreed to the demand due to his longing for his deceased wife. So why does the jade hold such importance? It’s because it’s their love token!
“So you are agreeing?” Gleeful in her voice, the old lady bursts out asking.
“However! The premise is that there is no third-generational heir to my Medicine Sect. Only then will I agree to your request.” Evoking a cynical smile, Bai Chang Feng’s words sounded almost mocking in the way he spoke.
This definitely didn’t slide past the old lady’s ear. Darkening in her expression, Old Madam Ye grew firm: “Are you playing me Brother-in-law? What if you have Zhanpeng pick up some random woman and have her bear a child? That’s the same as denying me outright.”
“Ho,” Sneering over that statement, “I would never force my son into marrying a woman whom he doesn’t love. Even if he doesn’t marry or have a child, I’m perfectly fine with that. As for your request, why would I need to make excuses? Or are you implying you can force me into granting your request?”
Shuddering upon making contact with that cold gaze, Old Madam Ye grew unsure: “Uhh, fine. Brother-in-law, I hope you won’t forget your promise to me today.”
“Leave the jade and go.” Closing his eyes after the dismissal, Bai Chang Feng was done with her and didn’t want to spare even a single glance.
Understanding this much, Old Madam Ye knew she’s overstayed. Carefully placing the jade behind, the old lady left in a hurry like she’s afraid the man would change his mind at any moment. However, that anxious appearance instantly changed to a joyous grin after coming out to the courtyard.
“So what if that bitch is a princess of the Holy Land? My granddaughter will also be the young lady of the Medicine Sect soon. I like to see others bully my granddaughter then!”
In the future, things like yesterday will never happen again!
