Chapter 250: Chapter 249 [Don’t Mess with These Three Women!]

Ye Tianchen and his sister Ye Qianwen were horsing around in the living room when they saw their mother Luo Yan and Qi Ruxue coming down from the second floor of the villa. They stopped their roughhousing, because their mother Luo Yan had on a pair of very pretty high heels that Qi Ruxue had given her.

"Wow, mom, you look so beautiful in those high heels!" Ye Qianwen cheerfully ran over, looped her arm through her mother’s, and said with a laugh.

"Oh, my, what do I see? A Fairy descending to earth? Mom, I’ve got to say, those high heels make you look at least twenty years younger, no, thirty, Your Majesty the Empress, please grant me the chance to share a dance with you..." Ye Tianchen came up with an even more exaggerated compliment, causing Luo Yan to burst into laughter. Sometimes this brother and sister duo made it hard not even to smile.

"You two, really aren’t afraid of making Ruxue laugh at you, are you? Isn’t this performance a bit too much?" Luo Yan said with her lips, but inside she was very happy—who wouldn’t want to be complimented for looking younger? Especially at her age, hearing such praise from her children, she felt the warmth of family and was filled with joy.

"Afraid of what? Sister Ruxue is not an outsider, and besides, who knows, she might become part of the family pretty soon..." Ye Qianwen, quite a chatterbox, gave a mischievous smile and deliberately glanced at her brother while speaking.

Qi Ruxue’s beautiful cheeks were still slightly red. She was still thinking about that scene in the kitchen just now, which was somewhat embarrassing. She hadn’t expected to almost uncontrollably want to seduce Ye Tianchen, could it be that deep down, she had already fallen for this man to such an extent? Qi Ruxue truly gave herself quite a scare.

"Hmm, mom, I’m just telling the truth here, nobody can wear those high heels as well as you do. Those shoes are tailor-made for you, no, that’s not it. It’s as if the factory that makes these leather shoes exists solely for you!" Ye Tianchen said earnestly and confidently, without skipping a beat.

In the Ye family, the atmosphere was always such a lively, joyous one. Luo Yan was not a stern mother to begin with, and Ye Qianwen, the little imp, was equally adorable and clever, often snitching on her brother Ye Tianchen to their mother, which was a daily occurrence. As for Ye Tianchen, enduring his sister’s complaints was the only reason he had compromised to giving her a monthly allowance of one hundred yuan. Having characteristics of both a rogue and the Death God meant that he was someone who could joke and mess around when there was nothing serious happening, but when it came to serious matters, not even the Heavenly King could afford to provoke him.

Most importantly, since Ye Tianchen was reborn into this life, he cherished his family even more. His greatest initial wish was to live a happy life with his parents and sister, protecting them from any kind of grievance. But now it seemed that wasn’t possible. If not, he would have to become even stronger to ensure their safety, willing to defy anyone who stood in his way, be they gods or Buddhas.

"Now, Tianchen, don’t just talk the talk. You haven’t even bought a present for me or your sister, and you’re already the chairman of the Sea King Group. Aren’t you being a bit too stingy? You’re unwilling to even spend a little money on your mom and sister... Oh, raising a child is truly not easy!"

Seeing her son Ye Tianchen playing the fool, Luo Yan also deliberately made a very aggrieved expression. Qi Ruxue, Ye Qianwen, and even Ye Tianchen himself were all taken aback. Nobody expected that when their mother played the victim, she was really something else, outperforming them by a mile. The older ginger is indeed hotter, which made Ye Tianchen think of how his mother held sway in the Luo family, always commanding respect.

"Yeah, look, being a sister, I haven’t enjoyed any perks either. My brother is already the chairman of the Sea King Group, a billionaire, and yet, no gifts have been seen..." Ye Qianwen also swiftly sided with their mother Luo Yan, rendering the people around her utterly speechless.

Seeing that Ye Tianchen didn’t respond, Luo Yan suddenly turned to Qi Ruxue and said, "Ruxue, you should say a few words too. Criticize Tianchen for being too stingy."

"Yeah, Sister Ruxue, you scold my brother too. He’s so stingy, especially with his sister... Ye!" Ye Qianwen said and then stuck out her tongue at Ye Tianchen, deliberately trying to annoy him.

"Ah..." Qi Ruxue was taken aback, her cheeks flushed with a light pink as she gently bit her lower lip, not sure what to say. She was still immersed in the awkwardness of the earlier moment and hadn’t snapped out of it.

"Mom, sis, do you see? Only the two of you are calling me stingy. When you ask Ruxue to criticize me, she can’t even utter it, right? In truth, I’m quite generous. It’s just that your obsessions are too strong!"

Ye Tianchen shook his head, speaking with a relaxed satisfaction. He didn’t mind spending money on his little sister and mother—it’s just that, for him, Ye Tianchen, money was pretty much useless. Nothing material mattered more than family. It was just his nature not to think about buying gifts, and given his low EQ, he wouldn’t even know what to buy. Now, seeing his mother and sister teaming up against him, he quickly defended himself.

Who would have known, just as Ye Tianchen was feeling smug and about to turn around and walk away, Qi Ruxue spoke up, "Hey, you previously stole my lobsters, and now you steal the beef I cooked. Don’t you think you ought to buy a gift to repay me?"

Qi Ruxue’s words were nothing short of shocking. As soon as she said it, Ye Tianchen was rendered speechless. As a grown man, how could he possibly admit to stealing anything? But, having been reincarnated from the apocalypse world, his biggest hobby was to enjoy the delicacies of this life. Now, caught out by Qi Ruxue’s accusation, he found himself at a loss for words, while Luo Yan and Ye Qianwen couldn’t help but snicker, thinking that Qi Ruxue was even better than they were, having subdued Ye Tianchen so easily with just a few words.

"I... How could that be called stealing? I was just testing the food for poison, to see if there was anything wrong with the dishes you cooked..." Ye Tianchen shrugged his shoulders, unable to come up with a better defense.

"Oh, the lobsters I made before were already tasted by Auntie and my little sister, and they also tried the beef stew with radishes first. Do they need you to test them? And the fruit platter, I wonder who could have snuck in at midnight to eat it and justly suffered from an upset stomach all night long!" Qi Ruxue pouted cutely at Ye Tianchen.

"Are you confessing on your own? That fruit platter was deliberately tampered with by you. You put croton powder in it to trick me. Now you finally confessed!" Ye Tianchen glared at Qi Ruxue with an intimidating look.

"I didn’t, it’s your own fault. Sneaking around at midnight, eating an entire fruit platter by yourself, it would be weird if you didn’t get a stomachache..." Qi Ruxue stood her ground, puffing out her chest as she spoke.

Luo Yan and Ye Qianwen, who were observing the back-and-forth banter between Ye Tianchen and Qi Ruxue, couldn’t help but smile slightly at the warm atmosphere. In their eyes, Ye Tianchen and Qi Ruxue were a good match. Maybe some might think that Luo Yan, the mother, and Ye Qianwen, the little sister, were a bit neurotic. Seeing a woman, they wanted her to become their daughter-in-law or sister-in-law. But if you had a son or an elder brother who had been frivolous, carefree, still playing around at the age of twenty, lacking a girlfriend, and seemed clueless about romance with a low EQ, you would understand their concerns and the urgency to settle his future.

"Alright, alright, Tianchen, here’s what we’ll do. To show your indebtedness to us, you can postpone the gifts for your little sister and me. But you must give Ruxue a gift as an apology and to thank her!" Luo Yan said with a smile, interrupting Ye Tianchen and Qi Ruxue.

"What? Mom, I don’t feel like I owe her anything. Plus, giving gifts is just too much trouble," Ye Tianchen said, rolling his eyes at Qi Ruxue.

"You know, back when Ruxue stayed with our family, you always ate the food she cooked. Now that Ruxue has finally come to visit, and cooked for us, you were the first one to sneak a taste. It’s only right to give her a gift in return. That’s settled then, otherwise, your mom might get angry!" Luo Yan said sternly to Ye Tianchen.

When it comes to who can truly tame Ye Tianchen, there’s none other than his mother Luo Yan. It’s not fear, nor a command, but a way to repay the love and care from one’s family and parents. Seeing his mother getting serious, Ye Tianchen had no choice but to purse his lips and acquiesce, looking at Qi Ruxue’s triumphant grin as if she had won again, he sighed and walked into the kitchen to start the meal.

Speaking of dinner, that was, of course, the job of Ye Tianchen and his sister Ye Qianwen. With the arrival of Qi Ruxue, Luo Yan naturally wanted to chat with her in person, and since she was so fond of Qi Ruxue, of all the women Tianchen had recently been involved with, Luo Yan was most pleased with Qi Ruxue. Indeed, Qi Ruxue had many good points, the only downside being that her son didn’t seem too keen on Qi Ruxue.

Around eight o’clock in the evening, the sky had already turned completely dark. Ye Tianchen, Ye Qianwen, Luo Yan, and Qi Ruxue were all happily seated around the dinner table. The argument between Ye Tianchen and Qi Ruxue had long been forgotten, and they chatted as they ate. The beef stew with radishes prepared by Qi Ruxue was so delicious that everyone enjoyed their meal immensely, so much so that Ye Qianwen even snatched beef from Ye Tianchen’s bowl multiple times, leaving him exasperated.

"Tianchen, after dinner, take Ruxue out for a walk. Although she’s stayed with the Ye family for a while, she isn’t familiar with this villa area. Show her around!" Luo Yan said with a smile.

"There’s no need, Auntie, I can take a walk by myself!" Qi Ruxue said, smiling sweetly.

"That won’t do. After all, you’re a guest. Let Tianchen accompany you. If that boy dares to bully you again, just tell your aunt, and I’ll take care of him!" Luo Yan warned her son with a stern look.

Ye Tianchen, being utterly speechless, knew that his mother, sister, and Qi Ruxue were aligned against him. To object would be akin to inviting attack, so he chose to stay silent and indulge in the delicious beef stew with radishes instead! (To be continued.
