Chapter 590 - 590 576 Before Departing
Chapter 590: Chapter 576: Before Departing Chapter 590: Chapter 576: Before Departing “We’ve only been together for a day, and you’re already unable to bear the loneliness. I suggest, why not just live in my yard, or even better, directly in my room.” Ye Chen said.
“Your mouth is becoming more and more cheeky. How did I not notice this in the beginning?” Wan Danrong said.
“Really! So, has my cheekiness made me more attractive then?”
“You’re nothing more than a drunk.” Wan Danrong responded, snorting.
Ye Chen smiled and said, “Do I look like a drunk now? I am perfectly normal, just a charming young master who could attract all the girls on the street.”
“What nonsense. A beggar like you, attracting girls on the street? Don’t joke around.”
“Well, then why have you been so clingy and kept me in your Wan Residence?”
Wan Danrong said, “I am not clingy. I’m just afraid you’ll starve on the streets. Seeing as you’ve saved my life, I felt obliged to offer you a meal.”
“Really? No other feelings?”
“What other feelings?”
“I remember that you said you had some feelings for me when you were drunk that night.”
“Impossible. How could I have feelings for a drunk like you? If I were to have feelings for anyone, I would choose someone presentable. You must have misunderstood my drunken rants.” Wan Danrong said dismissively, sneering coldly.
“Let’s see who will not be presentable when you’re in danger.” Ye Chen had already walked to the other side, crossed it, and saw a street.
The lanterns on the street had all been lit up, many men and women were strolling leisurely, and the bustling night life of Wanshou City was gradually starting.
“You merely have some martial arts skills.”
“Not just martial arts skills, I have many other virtues, such as my broad-mindedness, definitely not like Ding Yunjie.” Ye Chen continued to walk forward.
“Hoho, you have many virtues, huh?”
“What should we eat?”
“Anything.” Wan Danrong replied.
Ye Chen found an open-air diner and ordered a lot of food, saying, “This place is nice, we can watch the crowds coming and going.”
“Is it convenient for you to gawk at young women?”
“Oh, I didn’t expect you to know me so well. That’s exactly what I was thinking.”
“You have such a sleazy face, it’s clear you’re not up to any good.”
“Since you know I’m no good, why do you keep getting closer to me? Aren’t you afraid of something happening?”
“I’m on guard.”
“You can’t guard against it. In terms of martial arts, you’re not as good as me; in wisdom, you’re not as deep as me.”
“Who says I’m not as wise as you?”
The waiter had already brought the sweet soup and some other dishes.
Ye Chen chuckled, then seriously said, “I’m thinking of leaving.”
Wan Danrong looked up in surprise, “Leave? Leave Wanshou City?”
“Of course. I didn’t plan to stay long in the first place. I have to leave sooner or later, I can’t stay in your Wan Residence forever.” After talking with Feng Niang, he had been considering this matter.
“What’s wrong with the Wan Residence? Or did Ding Yunjie and the others say something?”
“You’re overthinking it. It doesn’t matter what they said. It’s not that the Wan Residence isn’t good, it’s just that I have my own affairs to attend to.”
“So where are you going?” Wan Danrong asked anxiously.
“Maybe find a temple and become a monk. How about you? Would you like to join a nunnery? We could make quite the pair.” Ye Chen joked.
Wan Danrong snorted, “This guy is becoming more and more ridiculous. There’s no such thing as monks and nuns being a pair.”
Ye Chen laughed and said, “It should be fun. We can meet in our spare time, and chat about life.”
“Discussing life in a Buddhist temple, you’re really something else.”
Ye Chen laughed heartily and began eating.
Wan Danrong was getting anxious and asked again, “Are you really leaving?”
“Yes. Will you miss me?” Ye Chen asked.
“Who would miss you!”
“Don’t cry and make a scene when the time comes. I really can’t stand that.”
“Where are you going exactly?”
Ye Chen thought for a moment, “I have some matters to deal with.”
“What important matters?”
“Quite important ones.”
“Can’t you tell me?”
“The less you know, the better. In fact, it’s best you know nothing.”
“Is it that critical?”
“Perhaps!”
“Do you really have important things to do?”
“What’s the matter, don’t believe me?”
“I am skeptical. When I first met you, you were a drunk, like a beggar. Now you seem more normal, but asking me to believe that you have important things to do, I’m still finding it hard to believe.”
“Then don’t believe it. We’re good friends after all, especially during this time at the Wan Residence, it’s been quite enjoyable, despite some incidents. But, I do appreciate how I’ve managed to slowly let go.”
Surprised by Ye Chen’s words, Wan Danrong didn’t know how to respond. Hard as it was to accept, she had to admit it in her heart.
“Hey, don’t miss me too much. Who knows what kind of wonderful people you’ll meet in the future?”
Wan Danrong sniffed and continued to drink her sweet soup.
“Honestly, during this period of time, I’ve been able to move on and am not as conflicted as before. I was particularly delighted to meet Feng Niang again. You should spend more time with her when you can.”
“Why do I need to accompany her? Can’t you just stay and do that?” Wan Danrong retorted strongly.
“Do you not mind?”
Wan Danrong gave a cold glance and continued drinking her sweet soup.
Ye Chen continued, “There’s no banquet that doesn’t end. If there’s a gathering, there’s a farewell. Maybe we’ll have the chance to meet again in the future, but I might have a new lover by then.”
“I don’t think you’ll find anyone attractive.”
“Heh, don’t be so cynical. I always aim for the attractive ones. Actually, it’s not me hunting, but the attractive ones who are hunting me. It’s unavoidable to be attractive. It’s just my nature.”
Wan Danrong retorted in disbelief, “You’re so full of yourself!”
Ye Chen chuckled, “Alright, I should tell you now. It would be unfair for me to leave abruptly without giving you a heads-up.”
Wan Danrong was clearly disheartened, not knowing how to persuade him to stay. It didn’t help when he told her he had crucial matters to attend to and asked, “In that case, will you return to the Wan Residence?”
“Probably not. The relationship between the master and the disciple should conclude here. You don’t actually like me.”
“Nonsense.”
Ye Chen laughed, “Alright then, how about this? I’ll favor you tonight and give myself to you. You can do as you wish. Deal?”
“You rascal! You’re absolutely incorrigible.”
Ye Chen laughed out loud.
Wan Danrong asked, “When are you planning to leave?”
“I’m not certain, but probably in a few days.”
“Is it that urgent?”
“Not particularly. I’ve stayed in Wanshou City for a while and even imparted martial arts to you.”
Wan Danrong said, “I’ll accompany you on your journey, I want to see the world.”
“Haha, you don’t even know what I’m going to do yet you dare to join me? I might just sell you off,” Ye Chen joked.
Wan Danrong stayed silent.
“Your dad would send the whole Wastelands after me.”
“Ah, I’ve never really left Wanshou City my entire life. I just want to see the world outside.”
“Accompany me to become a beggar, and wander aimlessly. It’s not as exotic or fascinating as you imagine. If I had a choice, I’d prefer to stay in the Wan Residence for the rest of my life.”
“Is there something so big that you cannot choose?”
“It’s quite a substantial matter,” Ye Chen said as he ordered another bowl of dumplings.
“If you like the Wan Residence this much, just come back after your task is complete.”
“Are you genuinely unwilling to let me go?”
“No.”
“The Wastelands, where you can find a place like Wanshou City, is not bad. You should learn to be grateful. Currently, the exterior is chaotic, and I can’t guarantee safety,” Ye Chen said with a sigh.
Wan Danrong had nothing to say in response.
“I also taught you some martial arts. I couldn’t train you to become a martial arts master, but your determination is commendable, you have a good foundation. If you truly find a good master, you’ll get better.”
“I just found one, and now you’re leaving.”
“Good masters aren’t just me, and with your family’s wealth, it wouldn’t be difficult to find another one. Don’t think I’m all that because I taught you for a little while. I’m just an ordinary person.”
Ye Chen stood up and gave the waiter some silver taels. Wan Danrong followed. The streets had become more crowded than before.
Ye Chen asked, “Do you want to enjoy a romantic moment by the lake?”
Wan Danrong was a bit overwhelmed and found it hard to accept.
“This handsome man won’t be available in the future.”
Only then did Wan Danrong follow him.
Ye Chen said, “I’ve come to realize that no one is going to accompany you for a lifetime. The most sincere person in your life is yourself, because only you will accompany yourself for a lifetime.”
“Who preached to you about this great truth of life?”
“Your mom.”
“Here you go again!”
Ye Chen laughed heartily, “Seriously, it’s more fun and interesting to hang out with Feng Niang.”
“How did you two meet?”
“In Feng Niang’s Inn, she was the hostess there. Maybe she was lonely and spent her time mingling, while a bunch of people tried to win her favor. When I joined in, I asked her to give me a chance.”
“What? You behaved like that the first time you met?” Wan Danrong looked at Ye Chen.
“Yes, Feng Niang back then wasn’t like she is now. She was very free-spirited, very unconventional, and seductive. To my surprise, she came to me that night with wine.”
“She brought wine to your room?” She almost couldn’t believe it.
“Yes, isn’t it impressive? Am I charming?”
“What happened between you two afterward?”
“Don’t worry, our relationship didn’t head in the direction you’re thinking. I’m traditional, and I won’t fool around.”
“You rascal!”
“But Feng Niang has changed, she told me that she had experienced a lot recently and wanted to change her lifestyle. I think it’s right, and she’s doing well now. After all, she’s from a wealthy family, there’s a limit to how bad things can get.”
