Chapter 444: Its Odd if You Didnt Get Beaten Up (Part Two)

Ye Xius eyes enlarged right away. Sis-in-Law, thats a bit too much though

Lin Chuxue: Dont worry, he wont beat you up from now on. He doesnt have many family members to begin with, everyone counts. Since you called me Sis-in-Law already, then just come over to our place whenever you want. Im the boss here.

Sis-in-Law! Ye Xiu movingly said, Ever since you live-streamed that fight to us that day, I knew only you were qualified to be my sis-in-law!

Lin Chuxue smiled and said to Lin Dong, Dong, go and set up a room for him.

Lin Dong nodded and then brought Ye Xiu upstairs.

Xu Cheng bitterly smiled on the sofa.

Right after Ye Xiu entered the room, he immediately called his grandpa and cried, Grandpa, you threw me under the bus!

Grandpa Ye: How is it? Did he tell you what hes doing going to the States?

Ye Xius eyes stared wide open. Shouldnt you tell me first why I got beaten up by Big Brother Cheng? Shouldnt you be concerned about my well-being?

Old Man Ye: Are your arms and legs broken?

Ye Xiu paused for a moment. Uh, no.

Old Man Ye: Then so what? Its already good enough that he didnt beat you half-dead. It would only be odd if he didnt beat you up.

Ye Xiu was speechless. So you mean, its normal that I got beat up? You already knew that I would get beaten up this trip?

Old Man Ye bitterly smiled. Kid, this time, I had no choice but to send you over. Among Xu Chengs peers in Yanjing, only you have the best relationship with him, and you are also his cousin. No matter how mad he is at you, he wouldnt hurt you too much.

Still not too much? I was almost beaten to death Ye Xiu said, Grandpa, tell me the truth, why did Big Brother Cheng beat me up?

Old Man Ye sighed. He indeed already sacrificed a lot for the country. You heard about what happened to his wife earlier, right? It still wasnt much that he got fired, but this time, feeling that we are monitoring him and not trusting him, he was very angered. But, we also couldnt just let him leave the country without even knowing what hes up to, so I could only get you to go and try to get that out of his mouth. If I were to send someone else, they would probably not be able to return with that temper of his. You dont know this, but he even turned against his comrades briefly because of what happened to his wife. Sigh, you wont understand his mood. If it was you who had to sacrifice your mother because of the country and then your wife got injured because of the countrys incompetence, and in the end, you didnt get anything but was still being monitored and not trusted, how would you feel?

Ye Xiu bitterly smiled. I would probably go to extremes.

Old Man Ye: Thats why I sent you to talk to him. If it was anyone else, they would really have died!

Ye Xiu wanted to cry. But Im not ending up anywhere better, Grandpa

Just be considerate of Xu Cheng. From the nations point of view, he broke the rules and its only just for him to be punished. But from the human feelings and relationships point of view, its only normal that he vents his anger. Just treat this as an opportunity for you to sharpen yourself.

Grandpa, its my first time hearing that being a sandbag can sharpen someone. I read more books than you, dont fool me on this one. Ye Xiu didnt know whether he should laugh or cry. Can I swear right now?

Old Man Ye: You are going to swear at me?

Ye Xiu: I wouldnt dare.

Old Man Ye: If you are a true man and you feel that you are wronged, its okay to swear.

Ye Xiu took in a deep breath. Faack!

Old Man Ye sighed, Looks like your dad didnt teach you good manners, I will go and have a talk with him.

Ye Xiu felt like crying. If you go scold Dad now, wouldnt he also beat me up when I get back?

After hanging up, Ye Xiu saw Lin Dong standing at the door. He lifted his brows and asked, Brat, what are you looking at?

Lin Dong already didnt like this teachers little brother. So what if I look at you?

Ye Xiu immediately jumped him. I cant beat up your teacher, but at least I can teach you a lesson! I will show you why you should call me teacher too!
