Because Wei Yuan had led a group to cause a commotion yesterday, the servants and retainers of the Ye Mansion had all been killed. Now, within the Ye Mansion, there were only Liu Yuemei, Ye Qingfeng, Ye Wushuang, Ye Feifei, Xu Qi Yuan, Xiao Yuan, and Uncle He.
Early in the morning, the family had gone to the martial arena in the city and hadn’t had time to tidy up. Seeing the mess in the courtyard, Liu Yuemei immediately began to clean up.
“Mother, there’s no need to clean,” Ye Wushuang said with a smile. “In a few days, we will leave Liuyue City and head to the Imperial Capital.”
“Hmm… that’s a good idea,” Liu Yuemei replied with a smile.
Although it was still just a few family members, their current mood was completely different from what it had been over a month ago. At this moment, sitting together, Ye Qingfeng said again, “Shuang’er, the Qin, Wei, and Yun families haven’t made a move because the people from Qingyun Academy are still here. Once Tang Chuyi and the others leave, those people will probably take action.”
“Uncle, there’s no need to worry,” Ye Wushuang said with a confident smile. “If it weren’t for waiting for them, I would have taken you all out of Liuyue City already.”
“Leave the rest to me!”
Ye Qingfeng nodded. Ye Wushuang had already proven that he was a man capable of standing on his own.
In the evening, in the main hall, the dishes ordered from a restaurant in Liuyue City filled the table, and the family sat together, enjoying a lively meal. Since the assessment ended, Xu Qi Yuan had been sighing and complaining that Ye Wushuang had cost him a lot of money by taking the assessment in Liuyue City.
Xiao Yuan, as usual, spoke very little and drank until his cheeks were slightly red.
As night fell,
Three figures approached the Ye Mansion together.
“Hey, you guys are feasting here without inviting us!” A familiar voice rang out. Ye Wushuang put down his wine cup and rubbed his temples.
“Princess!”
Ye Qingfeng and Liu Yuemei stood up and greeted Qing Shiyu upon seeing her.
“Why are you all so formal all of a sudden? Just call me Shiyu. I don’t want to be a princess,” Qing Shiyu said, sitting down casually and picking up a drumstick. She took a sniff and her face lit up with delight.
“So fragrant!”
Taking a bite, Qing Shiyu said directly, “Ye Wushuang, it’s not me who’s looking for you, it’s him!”
With that, Qing Shiyu pointed to the two people outside the door.
Tang Chuyi.
Wang Xueqi.
“Senior Tang!”
Seeing Tang Chuyi, Ye Qingfeng became extremely nervous and quickly said, “Please, have a seat, have a seat.”
At this moment, Tang Chuyi walked into the main hall with a leisurely gait and sat down.
“Old Tang, stop putting on airs and just say it,” Qing Shiyu urged.
At this moment, Tang Chuyi coughed and looked at Ye Wushuang, smiling, “Ye Wushuang, your performance in the assessment was very impressive.”
“This result, not only is it first in the Liuyue City examination venue, but it might also be first in the entire Qingyun Empire,” Tang Chuyi said earnestly.
“Moreover, I can see that you have a unique understanding of swordsmanship. So, out of my love for talent, I am considering taking you as my apprentice!”
*Clatter, clatter…*
As soon as Tang Chuyi finished speaking, at the dinner table, Ye Qingfeng, Liu Yuemei, Ye Feifei, and even Xu Qi Yuan dropped their chopsticks to the ground, stunned in their seats.
Qing Shiyu, seeing this, was also taken aback.
Was it really that surprising?
Given Ye Wushuang’s performance today, not only would Tang Chuyi want to take him as an apprentice, but even the dean might be tempted to do so.
Tang Chuyi coughed again and said, “If you are willing, you can perform the apprenticeship ceremony right now!”
At this moment, Ye Qingfeng, Liu Yuemei, Ye Feifei, and even Xu Qi Yuan could hardly contain themselves, all looking at Ye Wushuang with hopeful expressions.
