Chapter 118 What A Coincidence

  "What's wrong? Do you know him?" the middle-aged man asked his son.

  The security guards of those two schools also perked up their ears.

  "Yesterday was when he beat Guan Yi so badly that he's still lying in the hospital now."

  The boy whispered: "Hurt Guan Yi, now still standing here unscathed, Dad, do you think we can afford to offend him?"

  "Huh?"

  The middle-aged man was shocked, he was very clear about Long Ye's methods, and also knew that Guan Yi was Long Ye's only son. The young man in front of him had injured Guan Yi, yet he could still stand here, proving that even Long Ye couldn't do anything to him.

  Long Ye's reputation is very big, these two security guards also knew, after hearing the conversation between the father and son, they couldn't help but look at each other in dismay, then quietly slipped away.

  "Let's go."

  The middle-aged man no longer had any thoughts of revenge, at this moment he hated himself so much that he wanted to slap himself twice.

  With the support of his own son, the middle-aged man quickly left the registration point.

  The students and parents around also shifted their attention back to the registration, but they occasionally glanced at Ye Bai, estimating that this young man must have a great background.

  Before Ye Bai's performance, no one dared to feel uncomfortable again. After queuing for almost an hour, both Ye Bai and Tang Lulu completed their registration.

  Signing up is actually very simple, it's just paying tuition and getting a receipt.

  Registration ended, it was already around eleven o'clock in the morning. When Ye Bai and Tang Lulu's family of three walked to the entrance of the Affiliated Middle School, they met Yang Qing and Peng Beibei, and Jiang Xuan, who had been pursuing Yang Qing, was also there.

  "Yang Qing, Peng Beibei, did you guys sign up this morning?" They were classmates in the same class, so it was natural to greet each other when they met. Tang Lulu asked casually.

  "No, there were too many people at the registration place this morning. We'll go register in the afternoon." Peng Beibei shook her head and said.

  "Afternoon might have more people." said Tang Lulu with a smile.

  "It's okay, I'll come and queue up this afternoon," Jiang Xuan said, continuing the conversation.

  "Cut it out, we don't need some big shot like you to deign to help us line up. The ones who usually help with lining up for registration are relatives, and you're not one of ours." Peng Beibei said irritably.

  "It's almost time for lunch, I'll treat you today. I've already booked a private room at Tianfu Fish House." Jiang Xuan said with a generous expression, not dwelling on the registration matter.

  "Hey, you dare to go to Tianfu Fish Restaurant again? Aren't you afraid someone will come after you for revenge?" Peng Beibei always spoke in a way that was very annoying.

  Jiang Xuan's face turned awkward, and after a pause, he said: "I asked my dad about it, and he didn't owe those people any money. My dad is a legitimate businessman."

  "Are you trying to make me believe that a sow can climb trees?" Peng Beibei sarcastically remarked.

  "You guys chat, we'll head back first."

  Tang Lulu didn't seem to have any intention of having dinner, she said goodbye and then took her mother's arm, leaving with her parents.

  "Bai Bei, let's go home. Aunt Liu said she'll make something delicious for me at noon today." Yang Qing also pulled on Peng Bai Bei's arm, seemingly uninterested in Jiang Xuan's invitation.

  "It just so happens that I have nowhere to go, so I'll give Beibei's wife a bit of face and also try out Liu Yi's cooking." Ye Bai said with a thick face.

  Ye Bai said so, Peng Beibei certainly didn't dare refuse, and Yang Qing also couldn't bear to say no.

  Ye Bai then followed the two school flowers of Fuzhong together.

  Jiang Xuan felt frustrated and defeated. He had invited Yang Qing out, but she clearly didn't plan on inviting him back. All he could do was stand foolishly at the entrance of the Affiliated Middle School.

  "After all, they are classmates in the same class, and school is about to start soon. There will be plenty of opportunities later." Jiang Xuan thought so, and gradually let go.

  On the way back home, Tang Lulu's family started discussing again.

  "Old man, I think Ye Bai is a good kid, he's very straightforward. When he beat up that hooligan in school today, it really made me want to cheer for him." said Tang Lulu's mother.

  "Hmm, I can also see that he is genuinely on our side and won't just stand by and watch us get bullied."

  Tang Gui nodded, but then said: "A young man like this is worth our association, but we can't ignore his problem of being a ladies' man just because of this."

  "He's still young now, it's a good time to have fun, I guess it'll be better when he's a bit older." Tang Lulu's mother was already slightly biased towards Ye Bai.

  "They're still just high school students, let's talk about it after they finish college." Tang Gui couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, I hope he doesn't have a wandering heart."

  Tang Lulu remained silent, but in her heart, she also had a sigh similar to that of her father. However, this sigh was followed by another thought: "Is there still someone in this world who is as excellent as Ye Bai Gege and will like me taking care of him?"

  Ye Bai followed Peng Beibei and Yang Qing, and the three of them quickly walked into Tianfu Mingyuan and arrived at Yang Qing's home.

  What surprised Ye Bai and the three of them was that at this moment, Yang Qing's home had an additional middle-aged man besides Liu Yi who was busy in the kitchen.

  This middle-aged man wore a black shirt with white trousers, his hair was slightly curly and black, his eyes were very bright and clear, and his gaze gave people a sharp feeling. His eyebrows were broad, his forehead was full, his chin was square and round, his face was like warm jade, his lips were red and his teeth were white, looking mature and steady, with a dignified appearance.

  "Dad, how come you're back today?"

  Yang Qing saw the middle-aged man and was stunned for a moment, then asked with a joyful face.

  "Dad?" Ye Bai was very curious.

  "Hehe, today is your first day of school, so Dad naturally wants to come back and take a look."

  The middle-aged man smiled and turned to look at Peng Beibei, saying somewhat unexpectedly: "Beibei, you seem to have made quite a change, not only have you grown taller, but your spirit has also improved significantly."

  "Really?" Peng Beibei looked a bit surprised herself, and then she continued with a smile, "Maybe it's because Aunt Liu's cooking is too delicious, I'm freeloading here and getting nourished every day."

  "Who is this?" The middle-aged man looked at Ye Bai again.

  "He is..." Yang Qing thought for a moment, "a classmate of ours, his name is Ye Bai."

  "Hello, I'm Yang Zhen, Yang Qing's father, nice to meet you."

  The middle-aged man stretched out his right hand very politely as he spoke.

  "My name is Ye Bai, nice to meet you." Ye Bai also extended his right hand.

  Two men in the room shook hands with their right hands, swayed gently and then parted immediately.

  This seemingly ordinary action, however, secretly astonished Yang Qing, because his father had basically never shaken hands with young people before. This exception could prove that his father valued Ye Bai highly, but shouldn't this be the first time his father met Ye Bai?

  "Oh, right! Maybe it was Aunt Liu who mentioned Ye Bai to Father." Yang Qing suddenly felt relieved.

  "After sitting for a while and walking around school for half a day, I'm finally feeling tired."

  Peng Beibei made herself at home and sat directly on the sofa.

  Ye Bai, Yang Qing and Yang Zhen also sat down afterwards.

  "Hey Bai Ye, is everything okay at home?" Yang Zhen asked casually as he sat down.

  "I don't know, there's just an old beggar at home, who knows how he's doing now?" Ye Bai replied.

  "Old beggar?" Yang Zhen furrowed his brow and continued to ask, "Where are your parents?"

  "I am an orphan." Ye Bai said calmly.

  Never having seen what his parents looked like, let alone having any contact with them, Ye Bai had no feelings towards his parents except for some curiosity.

  "Sorry." Yang Zhen obviously didn't expect Ye Bai to be an orphan, but after a apologetic smile, he said, "Ye Bai should have just arrived in Tianjing City not long ago, right?"

  "Uh-huh." Ye Bai nodded, knowing that Yang Zhen was trying to get a read on him, so he didn't say much.

  "Where did you live before?" Yang Zhen asked again.

  "On an unknown mountain." Ye Bai replied vaguely.

  This Yang Zhen is the father of Yang Qing, and also one of his future fathers-in-law. Whether he can complete the task of Lao Jiaohua's will or not, Yang Zhen will play a crucial role, so Ye Bai thinks he should treat this person with caution.

  Just now when shaking hands with Yang Zhen, Ye Bai also saw that Yang Zhen was also a master, and his strength should be slightly stronger than Liu Yi.

  Ye Bai couldn't help but feel a little skeptical about the task entrusted to him by the old beggar... Yang Qing's family was clearly not an ordinary household, so why did the old beggar specifically ask him to pursue Yang Qing? Was there something fishy going on here?

  "Wasn't the old beggar you just mentioned the one who raised you?" Yang Zhen continued to ask.

  "Yes." Ye Bai nodded calmly as usual.

  "Old beggar... this title reminds me of an elder, his name is Jiao Hua Zi, many people who are familiar with him call him Jiao Hua Zi." Yang Zhen said with a hint.

  "Oh? What a coincidence!" Ye Bai's words were still calm, but his face had clearly changed, and in his heart he was secretly thinking... Indeed, there is a problem!

  But thinking about it, if there weren't some problems, why would Lao Jiaohua bring himself here to seduce someone else's daughter.

  Yang Zhen said that Lao Jiaohuazi is his elder, so it can be calculated that Ye Bai is of the same generation as Yang Zhen.

  Ye Bai's expression changed, and Yang Zhen naturally saw it in his eyes. At this moment, Yang Zhen could confirm that the young man in front of him was definitely closely related to Jiao Hua Zi.

  Yang Zhen also found it no longer hard to believe that Ye Bai was so young yet had such a strong power.

  "The meal is ready, let's go to the dining room and chat while we eat." Liu Yi said as she arrived in the living room, inviting everyone.

  "Yè Bái little brother, please." Yang Zhèn said politely.

  Everyone noticed the change in Yang Zhen's way of addressing Ye Bai, but they were only curious in their hearts and didn't ask anything.

  After sitting down in the restaurant, Yang Zhen asked Ye Bai again: "Do you drink?"

  "Dad, haven't you quit drinking for many years?" Yang Qing asked with a frown.

  "Hehe, I'm glad to meet Ye Bai little brother today. Dad is happy and having a couple of drinks won't hurt."

  Yang Zhen smiled and said to Liu Ayi beside him: "Liu Mei, bring me that jar of old wine."

  Grandma Liu hesitated for a moment, then got up. However, just one minute later, she came back to the dining room with a wine jar in her hand.
