Chapter 359: Chapter 356: A Feast for the Eyes [Seeking Recommendation Votes]

A philosopher once said that the world’s happiness and sorrow are equal. If someone is happy, it means somewhere else someone is bound to be sad.

At this moment, happiness belonged to Ye Chuxue, and sorrow belonged to Yuann Hua!

Inside a private hospital in Hang City, Yuann Hua lay on the hospital bed, staring at his head, bandaged like a Mummy, as fury rose within him like a surging tide.

"Damn it! Damn it! Li Chen, if I don’t kill you, I, Yuann Hua, swear not to call myself a man, swear not to call myself a man!"

Seeing Yuann Hua seething with Thunderous Fury, Yuann Jinsan hurried over to comfort him: "Yuann Hua, what’s done is done, anger will not help matters."

Yuann Hua ranted hysterically, as if enraged, "Grandfather, that Immortal Master Li chopped off my ear, we can’t just let this go, can we?"

Yuann Jinsan gestured for Yuann Hua to calm down and said, "Of course we can’t just let it be. Don’t forget, the Yuann Family has a living legend among us. However, your great-grandfather is currently in seclusion, and we absolutely must not disturb him over such a trifle!"

Yuann Hua, hearing that he couldn’t take his revenge immediately, grew anxious: "But Grandfather..."

Yuann Jinsan cut him off: "There are no ’buts.’ Yuann Hua, you must understand, ’When heaven is about to place a great responsibility on a man, it will first frustrate his spirit and tire his muscles...’ This is heaven’s trial for you; you must hold back."

"Think about it, if it weren’t for the hardships, how could Han Xin have been ennobled as a general and become a god of war? Without lying on firewood and tasting gall, how could the King of Yue, Goujian, lead three thousand iron-armored soldiers to conquer Wuo Country and become a hegemon of the Spring and Autumn Period?"

"Yuann Hua, you must always remember: only by enduring what others cannot, can you achieve what others cannot. This is an eternal truth."

Heeding his grandfather’s comforting words, Yuann Hua clenched his teeth and asked, "Grandfather, when will great-grandfather finish his seclusion?"

After pondering for a moment, Yuann Jinsan said, "That’s hard to say, perhaps by next year."

Yuann Hua clenched his fist and gritted his teeth, "Fine, let him swagger around for another year. Next year, Immortal Master Li, I will make sure you have no place to be buried!"

Yuann Jinsan stroked his silvery beard and sneered, "Even though Immortal Master Li possesses monstrous talent, he fails to hide his sharpness, falling into a trap of death unwittingly. I’m afraid he may perish without even needing the intervention of your great-grandfather."

Hearing this, Yuann Hua was overjoyed and asked eagerly, "Grandfather, are you saying that Immortal Master Li is already in a deadly predicament?"

Yuann Jinsan nodded and said, "Indeed, since Immortal Master Li emerged, in just a few months, he has offended everyone in Miao Territory and Lingnan, and the Four Great Profound Sects and the Twelve Martial Sects deeply resent him. Now, even in his stronghold, Jiangnan, danger lurks at every turn. Should any misfortune occur, it’ll be like a fallen tree scattered by monkeys; the so-called Huaxia Alliance will surely crumble!"

"Moreover, after Immortal Master Li killed the Dragon Family Ancestor, do you really think the Long Family people will faithfully serve his cause? If I am not mistaken, it won’t be long before they come to us on their own initiative."

Before his words could settle, a nurse came in, pushing a medical cart.

"It’s time to change the patient’s dressing!"

Yuann Hua nodded and waited for the nurse to change his dressing.

Suddenly, he saw a piece of paper fall out from between the bandages.

Yuann Hua’s eyes flickered, and he quickly grabbed the note into the palm of his hand.

He looked at the nurse, only to see her fully concentrated on changing his dressing, acting as if nothing was happening.

"Recovery is going well. Pay attention to your nutrition these next few days and make sure the wound doesn’t get infected!" After changing the dressing, the nurse gave a few simple instructions and left with the medical cart.

Yuann Jinsan stepped out of the hospital room, glanced around to ensure no one was watching, then turned to look at Yuann Hua.

By this time, Yuann Hua had already opened the note, which read: If you want revenge against Immortal Master Li, meet tomorrow night at nine o’clock at Slender West Lake!

"Grandfather, someone has arranged for us to meet at Slender West Lake tomorrow night at nine o’clock."

Yuann Jinsan took the note, which was typed with a printer in print-script, showing no trace of handwriting, and without any signature, making it obviously difficult to find any clues from it.

Yuann Hua asked, "Grandfather, could it be someone from the Long Family?"

Yuann Jinsan pondered for a moment and said, "Slender West Lake is in Yangzhou, if it’s someone from the Long Family, why didn’t they arrange to meet in Hang City?"

Yuann Hua replied: "Perhaps they want to avoid drawing attention, after all, Immortal Master Li is still in Hang City. Otherwise, if the matter is exposed, given Immortal Master Li’s ruthlessness, he would definitely wipe out the entire Long Family!"

Yuann Jinsan thought it over and felt this explanation was the most reasonable.

"Regardless, friend or foe, let’s leave the hospital now and go to Yangzhou to meet this mysterious friend!"

...

That night, in the inner courtyard of the Tang Family, Ye Chuxue’s boudoir:

The just-of-age Ye Chuxue was nestled in Li Chen’s arms, gazing at the stars outside the window.

"Ah, this young lady was still tricked by you in the end!"

Li Chen pinched Ye Chuxue’s delicate cheek and said, "I won you over with my skill. What, do you have a problem with that?"

Ye Chuxue rolled her eyes at Li Chen and snorted twice through her nose.

Li Chen said, "Are you a pig, hmming randomly?"

Ye Chuxue retorted, "You’re the pig! Pig head, pig brain, pig body, pig tail, the well-behaved child who isn’t picky about food!"

While saying so, she even started to hum the ’Song of the Pig,’ causing Li Chen to become quite exasperated.

His eyes glancing back and forth, he said with a mischievous smile, "Xue’er, I’m hungry!"

Ye Chuxue asked, "You ate so much cake today, how could you be hungry again so soon? Wait, I’ll go to the kitchen and find something to eat for you!"

As she spoke, she was about to get up.

But before she could stand, Li Chen pulled her back.

Ye Chuxue blinked her sparkling, large eyes and asked, "Aren’t you hungry?"

Li Chen, with a sly and naughty smile, said, "Beauty is a feast, I want to eat you!"

Hearing Li Chen’s blatant teasing, Ye Chuxue’s face immediately blushed red.

"You bad guy, always bullying me every day!"

Although she said so, Ye Chuxue didn’t struggle at all, merely gently closing her eyes and slightly puckering her alluring, tempting lips.

Li Chen understood the signal, and just as he was about to lean down to taste what "beauty as a feast" was like, the room door suddenly creaked open.

The person pushing the door was Tang Wan’er.

Among these sisters, she had the closest relationship with Ye Chuxue. When they were young, they even shared the same bed, so she was used to entering the room without knocking.

"Chuxue..."

As soon as she called out the two syllables "Chuxue," she quickly covered her eyes.

"Uh, that, that... I didn’t see anything, carry on, continue!"
