The Beautiful CEO's Super Soldier King-Chapter 939 [Today Zang Family Kazhuo]
Ye Jianguo’s smile deepened, and he couldn’t help but say, "I’ve always disliked flattery from others, but when these compliments come from you, they’re surprisingly pleasant to hear! Plus, my mood improves, it’s so strange!"
Ye Mingtian also chuckled, "Haha, then it seems from now on, I’ll have to say more of these things to keep Grandpa happy."
"You, you rascal!" Ye Jianguo laughed.
Ye Mingtian’s gaze fell upon several bamboo plants in the courtyard, and he couldn’t help but marvel, "These bamboos stand tall and straight, exuding vigorous vitality, just like Grandpa."
"You’ve actually compared Grandpa to bamboo, but you’re spot on; these bamboo have survived in the cracks, much like me back in the day!" Ye Jianguo said.
"Haha!" Ye Mingtian laughed heartily.
"Oh, you boy have gone into business, I’ve always regretted that. If you’d joined the army, your future achievements would have been limitless!" Ye Jianguo said a bit regretfully.
Ye Mingtian’s eyes flashed, "Grandpa, everyone has their own ambitions; hasn’t Ziyong already made a name for himself in the military?"
Ye Jianguo shook his head, "Your brother, no matter how great, is merely a man of action; with just a turn of your brain, he would crumble without a fight."
"Grandpa, you’re overpraising me; Ziyong is no ordinary person, after all, he’s a member of our Ye Family!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Jianguo instinctively straightened his back, and a hint of pride appeared on his face.
"By the way, Mingtian, you’re not getting any younger, you should start thinking about your marriage. As the saying goes, cultivate oneself and bring harmony to the family and the world!" Ye Jianguo said earnestly.
Ye Mingtian laughed shyly, "Grandpa, I’m here today to talk to you about this very thing."
Upon hearing this, Ye Jianguo’s body shook, his eyes showing an incredible expression, and he asked somewhat uncertainly, "Really? Which family’s girl?"
Ye Mingtian nodded, "Grandpa, it’s true, but she’s not a girl from Capital City. Don’t worry, I’ll bring her to see you soon!"
Excitement appeared on Ye Jianguo’s face, and he asked again out of curiosity, "How does she compare to the girl from the Ji Family?"
Ye Mingtian smiled, "Grandpa, I can’t say, but in my heart, she’s the best girl in the world!"
"Haha, having you say that is enough. Grandpa trusts your judgment!" Ye Jianguo beamed with happiness.
...
Meanwhile, Ye Chenfeng, filled with a thousand thoughts, walked alone to a secluded area.
He thought his mindset was stable enough that even setting foot in the Ye Family residence wouldn’t change much, yet just wandering around its periphery stirred up a tumultuous feeling inside.
"Clink!"
Ye Chenfeng lit a cigarette, smoking silently.
This was a pine forest, vibrant and green even in the dead of winter, showcasing robust vitality.
"Hmm?"
Ye Chenfeng’s brows slowly furrowed because two figures appeared at the edge of his vision.
An elder and a young woman, the elder wearing a black Tang suit; his seemingly bulky physique was actually incredibly agile. Though walking against the cold wind, the elder’s complexion was rosy, unaffected by the chilly gusts. His steady steps surpassed those of any young person.
The young woman was tall, nearly 170cm, with long, slender, beautifully shaped legs, and an attention-grabbing figure. But judging by her age, she was only seventeen or eighteen. What stood out was the short dagger-like knife tucked around her waist, though it was hidden well, only Ye Chenfeng could easily notice it.
At this moment, the young woman’s beautiful eyes stared warily at Ye Chenfeng.
The elder’s sharp gaze leaked with vigor, but it vanished quickly, meticulously concealed.
"Maybe they’re here sightseeing?" the elder said indifferently.
The young woman said nothing, her eyes never leaving Ye Chenfeng.
"Clap!"
Ye Chenfeng tossed the smoked cigarette casually on the ground and lit another.
"Don’t you know smoking’s prohibited in the forest? It can easily cause a fire!"
The young woman said coldly, with a frosty face warning Ye Chenfeng not to smoke.
Ye Chenfeng’s eyes flashed as he retorted, "Little sister, is there’s a sign here prohibiting smoking?"
"I..."
The young woman was momentarily speechless, scanning the surroundings and indeed finding no "no smoking" signs.
"The signs are in people’s minds; aren’t you mature enough to know about forest fire prevention?" the young woman scolded sharply.
Ye Chenfeng shook his head like a rattle, "I’m not aware."
"How can you be like this?" Facing Ye Chenfeng’s cheekiness, the young woman was at a loss.
"Because I’m uncivilized!"
After Ye Chenfeng said this, the young woman was so frustrated she was almost about to explode.
How could the world have such annoying people! The young woman was trembling with anger, her chest heaving.
"Yanran, come back. Can’t you see he’s joking with you?" the elder spoke, nodding slightly to Ye Chenfeng, "Sir, it’s indeed unsuitable to smoke here, especially in winter, when fires are prone to occur."
Ye Chenfeng smiled, "Old sir, I understand, but I’ll make sure not to cause a fire."
The elder’s expression changed, unintentionally developing a trace of curiosity about Ye Chenfeng; this young man behaved calmly, and speaking to him felt like talking with old friends.
Moreover, his sudden appearance here made his identity necessarily dubious.
"Little girl, I was teasing you, don’t get mad, you’ll turn ugly if you keep frowning!"
Seeing the girl called Yanran still glaring at him, Ye Chenfeng couldn’t resist teasing; he found this girl so amusing he couldn’t help but banter a bit.
"Mind your own business!"
Qin Yanran glared at Ye Chenfeng, exuding a sense of willful arrogance.
"Young friend, hope you’ll be cautious. We’ll leave now," the elder said to Ye Chenfeng.
Ye Chenfeng watched them and suddenly spoke, "You’re going hunting, aren’t you?"
Ye Chenfeng’s words made the elder and the girl Yanran stop in their tracks.
"Young friend, what do you mean?" the elder asked, his eyes showing great interest.
"Ancient times had Ganjiang and Moye, and today we have Zang Family Kazhuo!"
Ye Chenfeng uttered calmly, causing the expressions of both the elder and the girl to change dramatically.
The girl reached for the Kazhuo Knife at her waist, her heart infinitely shocked; how did Ye Chenfeng notice the knife was there? And how did he recognize it as the Kazhuo Knife at a glance?
The Kazhuo Knife’s handle and scabbard are made of Tibetan silver and set with gems. Just its appearance already reveals its extraordinariness, but the main allure of the Kazhuo Knife lies in its sharpness once drawn.
