Ace of the Dragon Division - Chapter 506

Chapter 506: Farewell Party

Grandpa Ye’s arrogance was gone. Just a few days ago, he was able to easily win the 1v4 without even breathing heavily, but this time, he was beaten up badly by the joint force of the four grandpas. Elder Ye shouted, clearly unconvinced, “1v1 me if you got the balls!”

The other four just shamelessly rolled their eyes at him.

The Ye Manor that was recently repaired and renovated got facked again.

Those four grandpas came as fast as they left. They drove all the way from different directions in the neighborhood, rushing straight over, and after beating up Elder Ye, they turned around and left swiftly. No guards knew what just happened, too dumbfounded to tend to the Grandpa Ye that was covered in bruises on the ground.

The way those four walked on their way out could only be described as, oh boy, light like the wind, happy as could be. They didn’t even bother to get driven back and just walked home with big strides, looking like they ran the streets now.

That night, Elder Ye was getting medical ointment put on by his daughter-in-law as he looked at Xu Cheng grudgingly, who was chipping away on some sunflower seeds.

“Those ungrateful b@stards! I was so nice to them, begging for our Little Cheng to also treat them as well. What did I get in return? They came to beat me up as soon as they could!” Speaking of this, Elder Ye glared at Xu Cheng. “You b@stard, why didn’t you do something and just watched as I got beat up?”

“How could I fight all four of them at once,” Xu Cheng rolled his eyes and said.

Elder Ye snorted, “You can’t? Didn’t you say you only used 30% of force last time? If you were holding yourself back that much when you fought me, then you can for sure easily take care of them! You are just like your teacher, only knowing how to show off!”

Xu Cheng just kept on eating the sunflower seeds like it didn’t matter to him. His face was so calm and indifferent.

At this time, Elder Ye suddenly changed the topic and said, “Tomorrow, us five grandpas will hold an appreciation banquet for you. It will still be at the old restaurant. You said you are going to leave soon, so it will be like a farewell party too.”

Ye Pei suddenly coughed, as if wanting to warn Xu Cheng of something.

But, he kept his mouth shut when Elder Ye glared at him.

Xu Cheng paid the old man a long and strange look, but the old man calmly just looked away, not looking to be guilty of anything.

Xu Cheng stood up and nodded as if nothing happened. “Then I’m going back to my room.”

When he walked out, Ye Xiu hurriedly followed up and reminded him, “Big Brother Cheng, why do I feel like it’s a trap?”

Xu Cheng: “What do you mean?”

“It’s understandable that Grandpa didn’t hold a grudge for you not helping out, but he’s even planning a banquet for you? You are a junior, the five elders don’t need to hold a farewell banquet for you, and usually, it’s organized by us peers,” Ye Xiu said.

Xu Cheng smiled without a word and walked away.

But, in the main hall, the old man glared at his son Ye Pei and said, “You’ve all grown up now? Helping out Little Cheng instead of me?”

“Dad, you’ve always told me that people should know to be grateful.” Ye Pei bitterly smiled.

“That b@stard bribed you? You are a minister! How could you be bribed by a kid? You good-for-nothing! What did he even bribe you with?” the old man said with disdain.

Ye Pei carefully took out the vacuum-sealed case from the bag and bitterly smiled as he said, “This minister is afraid of all kinds of illnesses too…”

Elder Ye’s eyes narrowed as he slowly nodded. “Yeah, you indeed need to be grateful.”

Ye Pei straightened his back and said, “So, tonight on, I can only help him instead of family. I’m going to tell Little Cheng, tomorrow you guys are planning to join hands to beat him up, and I will tell him not to go.”

Elder Ye glared right back at him. “You are even more courageous now, huh? Your mom died young, so it looks like I have to be the one to whip you back into shape.”

Ye Pei: “Dad, I’m a minister, please save me some face.”

Elder Ye’s foot already flew over.

At night, when Xu Cheng was brushing his teeth at the sink in the courtyard, Ye Pei walked over and said to him, “Little Cheng, I have to tell you something.”

“Uncle Pei, what is it?”

“Back then, there was a master of brilliance. There were so many women that were madly infatuated with him, but there were also a few uglies trying to stir up trouble. But, they couldn’t beat that guy. In the end, if it wasn’t because that person decided to be single for the rest of his life, there wouldn’t be us in the following generation. So, still holding a grudge, those uglies never liked that flamboyant master, but they couldn’t beat him, even until the day he died. They could only bury the grudge deep inside their hearts. But now, the disciple of that master appeared, and those uglies felt that they could vent their anger out on the disciple. So, tomorrow’s banquet is a big trap.”

Xu Cheng was suddenly enlightened. “But wait, Uncle Pei, what do you mean there wouldn’t be you as the following generation.”

Ye Pei: “Tsk tsk, if that master was a big-time playboy, then would my mom have married my dad?”

Xu Cheng sighed. “So it turned out that my master was such a flamboyant master of brilliance. But how come I don’t find him handsome at all?”

Ye Pei: “Brat, sometimes women don’t just like you because you are handsome. Like you, you look so ordinary yet your wife is so pretty, it’s the same logic.”

Xu Cheng didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry.

Minister Ye said, “Just like me, I look handsome, but I don’t have enough to show off like you guys. Women are different, especially those from back then; they didn’t have too much education nor knowledge, and once they had a crush on someone, they would be pretty stubborn with their target for a long time. That was why Zhang Chenfeng got the first-mover advantage when he started showing his face everywhere after joining the army early. When he was already a superstar, I think my dad was still a bandit somewhere in the mountains.”

Xu Cheng nodded.

Ye Pei continued to say, “Even before my mom died, she took a sneak at Zhang Chenfeng’s photo. *Sigh*, women from that era, how should I put it? It’s like people nowadays fangirling over a big-time celebrity, it could only be described as horrifying.”

Xu Cheng saw the wounds on Minister Ye’s face and asked, “Uncle Pei, what happened to your face.”

Ye Pei immediately put a cold towel on the bruised part and said, “Nothing. I’ve really put my life on the line to warn you about tomorrow to thank you for the syringe you gave me. Just be careful tomorrow. My suggestion is to just ignore them. As they aged, I don’t see their power growing much, but their temper sure did.”

Then, he patted Xu Cheng on the shoulder and then slipped back into his own room.

Xu Cheng smiled. It turned out that there was such an interesting story from that generation. Looks like that old man Zhang Chenfeng didn’t lie to him. He was indeed a flamboyant master that robbed the hearts of many women.

– On the next day –

The old man saw Xu Cheng coming out to brush his teeth so he said to him, “Remember, the old restaurant, brat. You don’t have to come, but I will just take it as Zhang Chenfeng took in a disciple with no balls.”

Then, Elder Ye got onto the sedan with the red-flag in front and drove out of the manor.

Ye Xiu brushed his teeth as he said to Xu Cheng, “It’s really just a lie saying it was a farewell banquet for you. Many people are going to congratulate the five elders on their recovery, so it doesn’t really concern you much. You don’t have to go. Now that they all returned to their prime state, they haven’t been able to find a suitable person to spar with. Since you are the recognized number 1, they want to fight you. You saw last night as well, those guys are still like barbarians despite their old age, so I don’t recommend you going to the banquet.”

Xu Cheng: “Didn’t you hear what the old man said just now? I hate people saying that I have no balls.”

Ye Xiu mocked, “Pretty much. That day, she was so hot yet you didn’t do anything. You indeed have no balls.”

Xu Cheng smacked him on the head. “Two completely different situations!”
