Chapter 47 – Break Through
The feast lasted until midnight. Most of the people were already wasted and had a glossy appearance to their eyes.
Ye Chen, Ye Hai and several others of the younger generation from the Ye family were at the same table, they were getting to know each other while chatting and drinking.
Suddenly, Ye Tianhao called out to Ye Chen.
“Chen’er, this is the head of Wind Rider Security Company Xu Tai, Uncle Xu, and this is his second daughter Xu Mei.” Ye Tianhao dragged Ye Chen, and introduced him with a huge smile on his face.
“Hello, Uncle Xu!” Ye Chen studied the two. Xu Tai was a bulky man in his forties, who wore a head guard and looked extremely strong; his second daughter looked no more than sixteen years old. Her body looked extremely slim and fit under her red dress, sexy with a hint of coldness. Sensing Ye Chen’s gaze, her face slightly blushed.
Xu Tai was also studying Ye Chen. After a while, he laughed: “What a great young man. So young and yet so powerful already, definitely not some mediocre talent.”
He was not just saying it, Xu Tai had been travelling around the world for years, during which he had met all kinds of people. He could accurately predict some people’s future to fame and power when they were young. As for Ye Chen, although he looked quiet and weak like a scholar, he had a subtle yet powerful aura to him, which could not be underestimated.
Ye Chen humbly said: “Uncle Xu, you are flattering me.”
Xu Tai shook his head, “I, your uncle Xu is someone who has experienced a lot of things in this world. I know when you should be humble and when you should not; I always felt that, being humble is being hypocritical, which you should never be. I really like you, my daughter likes you too, maybe you guys should find some time to get to know each other.”
Although Ye Tianhao could not be anymore familiar to Xu Tai’s personality, but he decided to keep silent, because he wanted to see how Ye Chen would reply.
“Uncle Xu, since you are so straightforward, I will do the same. I still haven’t reached my father’s level, so I am not really interested in things like relationships and such.” Ye Chen said seriously.
Frozen for a while, Xu Tai could not do anything but say: “It seems like my daughter doesn’t have the luck then. Fair enough, you will definitely become someone quite important one day, I am afraid my Mei’er won’t be able to handle you anyways.”
Ye Tianhao was really impressed with Ye Chen’s committedness to his path, even though he scolded him: “Nonsense, a true man will never be afraid of love.”
Then, he said to Xu Tai, “Brother Xu, we should let our kids handle their own business. We can not help them with some things even if we want to, what do you say?”
Xu Tai nodded, “That is true. Since that is settled, we should get going. Let’s catch up sometime. Mei’er, let’s go.”
Ye Tianhao tried to stop them, “Brother Xu, why leave when it is still early?”
“Thank you for having us. I should go though; my wife had made me some soup at home.” Xu Tai waved his hand, and started to walk home, while Xu Mei followed him behind.
After the two had left, Ye Tianhao turned to look at Ye Chen. It was such a serious stare that unsettled Ye Chen a little bit.
After a long time, Ye Tianhao said: “You must be tired from the competition, you should go rest soon!”
“All right, let me say goodbye to Ye Hai and the others.”
Watching Ye Chen walk away, Ye Tianhao started to smile.
The god had given me a huge surprise! Especially when I was just about to give up hope.
Shen Yuqing walked over and said: “Tianhao, what happened?”
Ye Tianhao laughed: “How strong do you think Chen’er would be? In our Luo City, there hasn’t been even one Astral Reaching Realm warrior for at least a century.”
