5 A Big Family (2/2)

Yun Bei Fen cheered and hurriedly grabbed behind him to tug at Baili Chao's sleeve while the two boys got off the ring. He could see that two others were already waiting at the side so he had to hurriedly tell his new father about this before the next fight started. He couldn't miss anything!

”Father, look over there!” He pointed at the youth that was left in the ring to make sure that his new father would see him right away.

Bright laughter startled him out of his worshiping gaze and he finally turned to Sect Master Zhang for the first time.

Zhang Guan Yu dabbed at the corners of his eyes that had teared up because of his laughter. ”Elder Baili … haha, is there something you'd like to tell us?” He laughed again but this time he was smart enough to take out a folding fan and try to mask it.

Baili Chao's face flushed red. This child! Hadn't he told him to call him master while they were in the sect?! Why was he calling him father again, now?!

Yun Bei Fen had no idea what was going on and he didn't care anyway. He had already gone back to observing his idol. The fact that he had just made a mistake didn't register and honestly, he hadn't done it consciously. He had just forgotten about it because of his excitement.

Zhang Guan Yu's laughter finally subsided into a light chuckling. ”Elder Baili, if the child calls you father and calls me uncle, does that make us brothers?”

Baili Chao smiled wryly. ”I wouldn't dare to call the sect master my brother.” And my disciple never called you uncle in the first place. He thought so but he didn't dare say it out loud. This shameless guy would only find a way to get back at him.

”Eh, Elder Feng.” Zhang Guan Yu turned toward the youth's master again and smiled even more brightly. ”If you had your disciple marry the boy in a few years, then we could all be a big family. What do you think?”

Elder Feng's lips twitched. ”I wouldn't dare to call the sect master my brother-in-law.” I wouldn't want to, either.

”What a pity.” Zhang Guan Yu smiled just as brightly as before.

He definitely didn't mind what the two Elders had said. Ah, these short-sighted people just had no idea! Just this morning he had divined the future and saw a sign of strong emotion that might lead to either death or marital bliss. He'd be an idiot if he didn't try his best to make it the latter, wouldn't he?
