Chapter 193 – I Miss Him
“Errr… your brother… let’s talk about your brother later. Kid, don’t move. Do you feel anything unusual in your body? Hey, Qingniu, go and get some maids to come over here, oh, and ask your granddaughter to come here as well. Then what? Oh, yeah, bring some porridge. I know she needs to eat something with less fat. She has only just woken up…”
The first question raised by Ye Qingyu left the three elders so frightened that their hearts were about to jump out of their throats. They didn’t know how to say or act in front of this mysterious girl.
It was Ye Tianlong, who finally took the initiative to break the silence, as he rubbed his hands and twitched his lips in embarrassment. He tried to put up a friendly smile to make Qingyu feel more comfortable. But, his remarks seemed awkwardly phrased as he began to spout out nonsense.
“Yeah, don’t worry, kid. You should lie down and have a rest. Everything will be settled. I’ll ask someone to take special care of you!” Qingniu gleefully responded and narrowed his ox-sized eyes, in case the abnormal size of his eyes would make Qingwu feel uncomfortable. As soon as he had finished his words, he ran out.
“Don’t be afraid, Ye Qingyu. This is our family leader, and he is also you and your brother’s grandfather. You should relax and try to get some rest. Let me tell you, Ye Jian is imprisoned, and Ye Qingkuang is expelled from the Ye Castle. So, the bad guys are no longer around. You can rest assured…”
Ye Baihu had finally regained his composure after his previous shock. As saint-realm cultivators, they had seen many grand scenes in their lifetime already. But, none of them were good at comforting a girl, especially when they were facing an unyielding girl like Qingyu. They were afraid that the smallest mistake would lead this girl to harm herself once again. Hence, they had to be meticulously careful in their phrasing.
Qingyu didn’t care in the least about the passionate and zealous confession of the three elders. Instead of believing in their kindness, she saw them as three ill-intended obscene old folks who deceived her by saying they would buy her candy. She started to, therefore, curl up and hide underneath the blankets of her bed.
“I-I want to see my brother. Let me see him. You said he is still alive, then bring him here. Otherwise… I’ll kill myself again!”
“Stop!”
“Oh, no!”
Qingyu’s threat took effect. Ye Tianlong and Ye Baihu were so afraid of her doing something extreme. Yet, they found it difficult to handle this situation.
- Sha, Sha! -
Footsteps could be heard quickly approaching. Soon, a pure face popped up at the door, this was Ye Qingwu.
With a gentle smile and slight excitement, she walked directly towards Qingyu, and asked, “Sister Qingyu, you finally woke up! Do you recognize me?”
“Y-You are Miss Qingwu? I know you!” Qingyu inspected Qingwu from top to bottom, and finally burst into a bright smile. She had seen Qingwu several times in the Ye Castle, and her angelic face and curving body was hard to forget. Most importantly, Qingwu had once saved her brother back at the School for Battle Beasts. Indeed, Qingyu was rather grateful for her heroin behavior at that time.
The casual conversation between the girls had lifted the tension, thus both Ye Tianlong and Ye Baihu felt greatly relieved. It was fortunate that Qingyu actually remembered Qingwu, and had a good impression of her. This definitely made it easier to comfort Qingyu through the mouth of Qingwu, rather than the old folks.
