Chapter 547: Chapter 547: The Arrogant Old Man

At this time, Murong Wanwan had finished adjusting her clothes and climbed back into the driver’s seat. She said to Ye Xuan, "Big Brother Ye, you go back first. Another day when I’m free, Wanwan will come to find you."

"Okay."

After saying this, Ye Xuan opened the door, stepped out of the car, and waved to Murong Wanwan, "Little Wanwan, be careful driving on the road."

After parting with Murong Wanwan, Ye Xuan returned to his own car, immediately started the vehicle, and headed towards the Lu Family courtyard.

It was almost one in the morning now. He wondered if that little girl had gone to sleep at this late hour.

If she was already asleep, everything would be easy to handle. Otherwise, if he was caught returning late at night, he would inevitably face a severe interrogation.

While on the road, Ye Xuan made a phone call to a mysterious number! It was the number he had obtained from the man with the hooked nose.

Doo-doo-doo...

The phone rang for more than ten seconds before it was picked up on the other end, a hoarse voice of an old man coming through, "May I ask what matter you have?"

"No big deal, just wanted to have a chat with you."

Ye Xuan’s voice was casual and indifferent.

"Who are you?"

"Ye Xuan!"

"Since you know this number, it seems my few kids must have met with trouble, right?"

The old man’s voice was very calm, showing no signs of fluctuation.

"That’s right! They have been sent by me to Hell to meet your exalted Killing God," Ye Xuan said with a cold laugh.

"State your conditions. Since you’re calling me, you must have your reasons."

There was silence on the other end for a moment, and after a long while, the voice finally came through.

"Quite straightforward!"

Ye Xuan gave a faint smile and without beating around the bush, he said directly, "I only have two conditions. First, I suggest you stop your assassination attempts on me, otherwise the consequences will be severe! Second, tell me, who is the person who hired you to kill me."

There was a ’heh heh’ cold laugh from the phone, which sounded exceedingly sinister:

"Young man, you are too full of yourself! What do you take our Fengye Organization for, a petty servant to be ordered around at your whim?"

That voice sounded like a wailing evil spirit, chilling to the heart and raising goosebumps.

Ye Xuan spoke indifferently, "Old man, I’m currently discussing a matter with you, don’t be ungracious! And to tell you the truth, I really don’t take your Fengye seriously. If you don’t want the Fengye Organization to be wiped out, I advise you to consider my request carefully."

"Humph, what an arrogant tone! Young man, don’t be too self-important."

The old man on the phone snorted coldly, his voice carrying a hint of menace and anger:

"Our Fengye Organization of assassins ranks quite high in the Yan Country. Don’t think that by killing a few of Fengye’s lesser assassins, you can look down on us, Fengye. They were just low-level assassins within Fengye; I have many more children much stronger than them!"

"Old man, I’m warning you as well, my patience has its limits. If you dare to send more people to assassinate me, I assure you that your men will have a one-way ticket to the grave! If you don’t want Fengye’s bunch of worthless rubbish to be wiped out, you’d better do as I say."

Ye Xuan’s voice was calm, his words filled with an unmistakable threat.

"Heh heh...let’s just wait and see. We’ll see if it’s us who kill you, or if Fengye is destroyed by you!"

The old man’s cold laugh, throwing down those words, hung up the phone.

"Damn! He actually dared to hang up on me? Old man, you haven’t answered my question yet..."

Hearing the dial tone, Ye Xuan furrowed his brow and shouted into the receiver a couple of times, but there was no response.

Beep.

Ye Xuan resolutely redialed the number.

However, it only rang twice before the busy signal came through, clearly indicating that the other party had cut the connection, refusing to answer!

"Damn it! What an arrogant guy, won’t even take my calls."

Ye Xuan cursed under his breath, feeling extremely annoyed, and dialed the number once more, but the result was the same as before—the old man still didn’t pick up.

He refused to believe in such ill luck and called again!

However, this time he was spared even the effort of being rejected because the call didn’t go through at all—the voice on the other end simply stated the phone was switched off.

Harassed to the point of irritation, the old man had simply chosen to turn off his phone!

Seeing this, Ye Xuan was rendered speechless.

Damn it, am I really that scary? You can’t even bring yourself to answer a call? Either this old man is too arrogant or too cowardly!

The phone was hung up so quickly, he didn’t even have the chance to find out the man’s name!

A leader of an assassin organization this faint-hearted? No wonder this Fengye Organization never amounts to much.

Ye Xuan put away his phone and rushed towards Lu Miaochan’s house at full speed.

...

By the time he returned to the Lu Family’s courtyard, it was already one o’clock in the morning.

I wonder if Miaochan has fallen asleep this late?

With that thought, Ye Xuan used his key to open the courtyard door, glanced at the pitch-dark yard, and then crept inside. His manner was very much like a stealthy thief.

Snap!

Just as Ye Xuan took a few steps, a light noise sounded and the lights in the yard suddenly turned on.

Immediately after, a voice as thunderous as lightning suddenly exploded in the yard:

"Ye Xuan!"

The voice startled Ye Xuan so much that his soul nearly flew out of his body.

His sneaky figure instantly stiffened, and he turned his gaze towards the direction the voice came from.

Immediately, he saw a beautiful figure standing in the light, like a sprite in the night. Right now, those majestically stern and adorable features were furrowing brows in anger at him.

Uh...

Ye Xuan immediately shrank his neck and curved the corners of his eyes downward, plastering a flattering smile on his face: "Hehe, it’s so late, Miaochan, why aren’t you asleep yet?"

"I sleep your head! How can I sleep when you don’t come home so late?"

At that moment, Lu Miaochan was wearing a Doraemon cartoon pajama, with a cold smile hanging on her pretty face.

She glared at Ye Xuan, stepping closer with an inspecting look.

Feeling Lu Miaochan’s gaze, Ye Xuan got chills all over, his expression becoming more unnatural as he smiled harmlessly:

"Miaochan, you actually waited for me for so long? You’re such a considerate girlfriend, almost like my wife! But... cough cough! Don’t wait up so late next time, staying up is bad for a girl’s skin, it will affect your health."

"What, you still remember that it will affect health, you seem quite concerned about me, talking as if you really care."

Lu Miaochan pursed her lips, staring sarcastically at Ye Xuan, and said, "I think, you’re just afraid that your late night vigil will catch you—the cat that’s been stealing fish."

Ye Xuan broke into a sweat!

This girl is getting sharper by the day, not as easy to fool as the simple Murong Wanwan...

"Where does that come from? How could I possibly be stealing fish? That’s something that would never happen to me! Miaochan, I’m truly considering your well-being, I don’t want to disrupt your rest," Ye Xuan claimed earnestly.

Of course, the act of stealing fish, even under duress, couldn’t be admitted.

Besides, that wasn’t stealing fish, okay?

He had simply gone to Huayun City with little Wanwan for a car race! During that time, to deepen their lovely revolutionary friendship, they indeed hugged each other, but it was all very innocent.

Yep, that’s it!

Ye Xuan reassured himself of this internally.
