Genius Daddy in the City - Chapter 170

Chapter 170: 170

At night, Ye Chen thought about heading to Beijing on his way home . The only thing that bothered him was to look for a reason to convince his parents .

 After all, to his parents, the Su family was the wealthy family of Beijing . They were big shots that were hard to compare with an ordinary family like the Ye family .

 Meanwhile, Ye Chen’s cultivator’s identity was extremely shocking, so he did not want his parents to find out just yet .

 He would definitely have to bring Mengmeng along . Yuhan had been apart from her daughter for three years . Just like the saying ‘mothers and daughters are forever connected by the heart’, nothing could beat letting Yuhan see her daughter again .

 Ye Chen arrived home as he pondered to himself . He had yet to find any reasons to convince his parents .

 As he entered the house, he was surprised to find that his parents were still awake . Meanwhile, Mengmeng was fast asleep, her head buried in his mother, Wu Lan’s embrace .

 Ye Chen took a seat and said calmly, “Dad, Mom, why are you guys still up?”

 “I’m discussing Wenwen’s engagement banquet with your mom . ” His father Ye Hai took a puff from his cigarette, appearing to be bothered .

 Ye Chen was slightly stunned . “Engagement banquet?”

 “Yeah, your Second Uncle’s daughter, Wenwen’s engagement banquet . ”

 His mother took over the conversation and explained, “Do you remember your Second Uncle who’s working at the development zone office in Nine Dragons Bay? I think he’s the deputy director of the management committee . His superior’s son happens to be courting Wenwen recently . Given that your Second Aunty was trying to matchmake them, they got together within a few days and were engaged three days later . ”

 Ye Chen was shocked .

 Ye Wen was engaged?

 Ye Hai sighed and said, “Your Second Aunty called us earlier . She insists that we must go to the banquet . So, I’ve been discussing with your mom what gift we should get them . ”

 “Your Second Aunty has never liked us . Now that she’s called us herself, she’s definitely trying to show off . ” Wu Lan was pissed off as she spoke . Although she was uncultured, she could read people well .

 Ye Hai condemned her with a grim expression, “That’s just your personal opinion . No matter whether Xiaohui calls us or not, we should go . Moreover, Xiaochen’s Second Uncle and Wenwen called to invite us themselves after that . ”

 “I’m just worried that you might embarrass yourself if you go…” Wu Lan scoffed .

 Upon seeing that his parents were going to argue, Ye Chen said in between tears and laughter, “Dad, Mom, let’s just go . I’ll pay for the gift . What’s there to fight about?”

 “Sure, let’s all go together . Although we’re poor, we can’t let the outsiders gossip about us . ” Ye Hai nodded .

 Although Ye Chen agreed to that, he secretly sighed . Since he was going to the banquet, he would have to postpone his trip to Beijing for at least three days .

 Soon, his mother carried Mengmeng into the room to sleep with a sullen expression . Ye Chen and his father were the only ones left in the living room . Ye Hai stared at the TV while watching the evening news .

 Ye Chen was distracted as he was hesitating whether he should tell his parents about his plan to go to Beijing or not .

 At that moment, the evening news ended . Ye Hai turned off the TV and got up to return to his room .

 Ye Chen suddenly spoke the moment when he turned around, “Dad…”

 When Ye Hai turned his head to look at him, he seemed rather blur .

 Ye Chen was instantly speechless, but he eventually said, “Alright, go to bed soon . I know what you want to say . I’ll settle the gift . ”

 Ye Hai waved and peered at the room secretly . He spoke after lowering his voice, “Your mom is managing our money, but I have a secret stash with me . Don’t tell her…”

 Before he was done speaking, Wu Lan’s doubtful voice came from the room, “What secret stash?”

 Ye Hai jolted and walked to the room with a smirk on his face . Ye Chen seemed to hear him say faintly, “Cough, cough, cough . I was saying I never have a secret stash . ”

 Ye Chen was speechless but relieved at the same time .

 Telling his parents would not matter .

 He could not tell Ye Hai that his son had gone to the cultivation world during the five years he disappeared . He then cultivated for 3,000 years and became a Heavenly Emperor and returned out of nowhere .

 Not only was his son a cultivator, but he was also the infamous Mad Southern Ye who had killed a person within ten steps . He was the Tiannan No . 1, and all the wealthy families in Tiannan admired him .

 Besides that, his son was an invisible millionaire who was worth ten billion yuan .

 If Ye Chen were to tell him that one by one, Ye Hai would not pass out but would slap him instead and insist, “I’m only 55 . I don’t have Alzheimer’s yet . ”

 He returned to his room as he kept his thoughts to himself .

 In the middle of the night, a black puppy rolled its eyes and crawled out of the window . It was running to a club that was close to the district .

 “This damned Xiao Yezi! He brought a snake back after his trip to Miao Village . I’ll just call it No . 2 .

 “Although No . 2 is young, his temper is worse than mine, but he’s rather dumb . I was joking two days ago . I can’t believe that he really licked the electric jack .

 “Oh, No . 2, you’re too young to be fighting for attention with me . A little trick of mine will kill you . ”

 The patriarch chuckled while walking .

 “I can’t let it happen . I must cultivate diligently . I can’t let No . 2 replace me . Otherwise, I might really turn into a pot of delicious dog meat!”

 …

 The next morning, Su Youwei visited when Ye Chen was cooking in the kitchen after his parents went to work .

 The first thing that lady said was, “I’m leaving . ”

 Ye Chen responded in a neutral manner while proceeding to stir-fry the beef with a spatula .

 Su Youwei was pissed at his attitude . “I said I’m leaving . Isn’t there anything that you’d like to say to me?”

 Nevertheless, Ye Chen gave no reaction .

 “B*stard!”

 Su Youwei stomped in rage . She said while clenching her teeth, “Let me ask you this . Does your powerful ability have anything to do with you vanishing for five years?”

 She had very complicated emotions toward Ye Chen . She thought he was useless, but he turned out to be Mad Southern Ye who slaughtered masters like dogs .

 Never mind that, but more importantly, his female disciple was powerful too .

 Su Youwei would never forget that time when she used the opportunity to cause trouble to Xiao Ya when she invited her to a hotel for lunch whereby she had gotten Guo Sheng to attack her .

 It turned out that Xiao Ya defeated Guo Sheng before slapping her in front of everyone . The swell on her cheeks only subsided two days later .

 Noticing that Ye Chen said nothing, Su Youwei suppressed the rage in her forcefully . “Don’t you want to save my sister?”

 Ye Chen turned around to look at her with a rather fierce gaze . “I’m giving you five minutes . Scram after you’re done with whatever you’re going to say!”

 Su Youwei was stunned by the ferocity in his eyes and she stammered, “I-it was my family that underestimated you . With your ability, it’s enough for our family to look up to you . What I’m trying to say is that you should drop by my house with me and talk to my second brother properly . He should agree with you being with my sister…”

 “Scram!”

 Su Youwei looked at him blankly . “Ye Chen, a-are you really making our family your enemy? You’re only going to hurt yourself doing that . My second brother’s power is beyond your imagination…”‘

“So what if I make your family my enemy?”

 Ye Chen suddenly smiled . “Since when do I, Ye Chen, need your family to look up to me? My current family situation is all thanks to your family . What I want for your family is despair, fear, and trepidation!”

 “You want to end my family?” Su Youwei’s pitch was extremely high and she was in disbelief .

 “Scram! If you dare speak again, I’ll kill you right away!”
