Chapter 919: The Warm Old Man (1)

Yes, go and urge the Wen family. Tell them that if we cant pay them within two days, well leave. Ye Chen thought for a moment. Even though he wanted to meet up with Xueer now, he had to deal with the Wen family first.

Why? Zheng En was a little puzzled. Actually, he was mainly worried that if he went to tell them and the Wen family gathered all his remuneration, the Wen family would hunt them down all over the Divine Continent if they secretly left! Therefore, it was best not to remind them.

Dont worry, the Wen family wont be able to afford it, Ye Chen said confidently. Unless the Wen family sold their fixed a.s.sets, it would be impossible for them to gather Zheng Ens remuneration in a short period of time. However, it was unlikely for the Wen family to sell their a.s.sets now. This was because if he wanted to sell the ancestral property, he had to get the approval of the Patriarch. Once the Patriarch made such a request, he probably wouldnt be able to be continue being the Patriarch anymore. Therefore, he wouldnt do such a stupid thing!

Ill remind them since you are so confident! Hehe! Zheng En still trusted Ye Chens judgment! With that, he left the room and went straight to look for the head of the Wen family.

Zheng En went to the main hall first, but it was empty. Then, he walked towards the main courtyard.

After arriving at the main courtyard, there were no guards at the door, so Zheng En did not stand on ceremony and walked straight in.

However, before he approached the main house, he heard the sound of an argument coming from inside. Out of curiousity of a gossip, he p.r.i.c.ked up his ears and listened. Then, the smile on his lips deepened

Hehe! Commander Ye had guessed correctly. The Patriarch and the Matriarch were arguing over crystals!

However, they were too focused on their argument and there was no one guarding outside, so they did not sense anyone eavesdropping.

After listening for a while, Zheng En knocked on the door and deliberately said loudly, Is Patriarch Wen around?

/

Oh, its Excellency Ersha! Whats the matter? Patriarch Wen opened the door and looked at Zheng En outside. He frowned and forced a smile.

Ah! Patriarch Wen, what happened to your face? Zheng En looked at the obvious scratches on Patriarch Wens face and suppressed his smile.

Uh! I was accidentally scratched by a cat! The Patriarch said awkwardly. He had opened the door too quickly and forgot about the injury on his face.

Cat? Patriarch Wen, the scratch on your face is too big. It doesnt look like a cat to me. Instead, it looks like a tigers scratch. Zheng En observed seriously and then said very seriously.

I didnt see what it was. That guy slipped away too quickly. I was just guessing. The Patriarch blushed and explained helplessly.

Oh! Sigh! The Wen familys defense is a little weak now! The tiger can even run away after scratching the Patriarch. Patriarch Wen, its not that I want to criticize you, but you have to strengthen your defense! If this tiger dares to scratch you today, it might scratch others tomorrow. Therefore, you definitely cant let it go, Zheng En said sincerely. Then, he sighed and patted the head of the Wen family on the shoulder to express his deep sympathy for him.

Thats right! Excellency Ersha is right. Ill be more careful in the future. By the way, why are you looking for me? The Patriarch had no choice but to change the topic. Otherwise, if he let Excellency Ersha continue, the tigress in the house would probably run out and scratch him.

Well, Im here to tell you that there are still two days to the deadline I gave you. If you cant gather the money you owe me in two days, then Im leaving, Zheng En said cooperatively.

Excellency Ersha, can you give us a few more days? The Patriarch negotiated. Even though he did not think that Excellency Ersha would really leave just like that, he still had to give face to the alchemist.

Im sorry! Patriarch Wen, I still have other matters to attend to! I spent too much time in the Wen family and have no choice but to leave, Zheng En said with a troubled expression.

Uh! What about the poison in my Wen family? The head of the Wen family said with a headache.

Patriarch Wen, if you can fork out the money you owe me, Ill continue to refine pills for you! However, if you cant, then dont blame me. Zheng En said with a smile, his att.i.tude extremely good.

Hearing Zheng Ens words, the Patriarch could not catch his breath and almost fainted. F*ck, what was going on? It was clearly a reward, but now it had become money that was owed to him. Was there still justice?

Patriarch Wen, thats all I have to say. Take care! With that, Zheng En turned around and left.

Excellency Ersha The Patriarch hurriedly wanted to stop him, but Zheng En did not even turn around. Instead, he hurried on.

Before he walked out of the main courtyard, he heard a tigress roar from behind, Let him go. I dont believe that without him, the poison in our Wen family cant be cured.

After that, the Patriarch said something else, but Zheng En did not listen carefully.

After Zheng En returned to his residence, he couldnt help but laugh until he leaned on the table

Ye Chen was sitting in a chair in the room. When he saw Zheng Ens appearance, his face was filled with question marks. He couldnt help but wonder if Zheng En had been provoked by something. Why was he laughing like this?

What are you laughing at? Yechen asked calmly when Zheng was almost done laughing.

Zheng En calmed down and then described what he had seen and heard when he went to the main house to Ye Chen. After saying that, he looked at him with antic.i.p.ation. Hehe! Funny, right? Shes a woman after all! Shes already cultivated to the level of a G.o.d, but she still likes to scratch in fights!

Whats so funny? The Matriarch of the Wen family is a tigress. Everyone on Divine Continent knows that, Ye Chen said nonchalantly.

Uh! Why didnt I know? Didnt you come to the Divine Continent with me? How do you know this gossip? Zheng Ens eyes lit up as he asked curiously.

Youll find out in the future, Ye Chen said, keeping him in suspense.

Commander Ye, dont be like this! I wont be able to sleep at night with this knowledge. Zheng En said with a bitter expression.

All the better, you can keep the night watch, Ye Chen said with very little sympathy.

Dont be like this! Weve known each other for so long. Zheng En tried to get close.
