Chapter 18 18. Just have a drink and listen to some music!
Upon hearing that he was his young aunt's direct disciple, Ye Yutan was stunned for a moment, and then a hint of deep anger flashed in his eyes.
His feelings towards his young aunt had reached a morbid level.
Not to mention Ning Mu’s direct disciple.
Even if he saw his second uncle and young aunt together, he would be filled with infinite anger!
Any man who appears around his young aunt is the object of his jealousy!
but.
After a flash of jealousy, he took the initiative to clasp his fists and said in a friendly manner: "It turns out to be Brother Ning. You are so lucky to be able to become a disciple of my young aunt. I am really envious of you!"
"Brother Yutan is polite!"
Ning Mu smiled and clasped his fists in return.
The other party's words seemed to be a compliment to herself, but in fact they were praising Liu Qingmei.
Moreover, there seemed to be a hint of gunpowder in his words.
Ning Mu's heart moved slightly and he looked at Ye Yutan carefully.
Liu Qingmei didn't care about it and just thought it was just a polite exchange between the younger generation.
After some casual chat.
The group headed to the inn.
Ruyi Building.
Ye Yutan has arranged someone to come and notify.
When everyone arrived, a sumptuous lunch had already been prepared in the Tianzi No. 1 room.
Liu Qingmei and Ning Mu were already starving.
Without much politeness, he started to devour the food after it was served.
After three rounds of dishes, we were full and satisfied.
"Aunt, I have arranged accommodation for three days in Ruyi Tower. The entire top floor has been reserved. You and Brother Ning can stay here temporarily. Daily meals, washing and bathing supplies have also been prepared from the residence and delivered to a fixed time every day. Aunt, do you think there is anything else you need to add?"
Ye Yutan looked at Liu Qingmei and spoke attentively.
It must be said that all his arrangements were very well-placed and subtle, and Ning Mu didn't even notice when he made the arrangements.
However, in the face of his courtesy, Liu Qingmei frowned slightly.
"It doesn't take three days. One day at the earliest and two days at the latest will be enough. Your uncle's illness requires help, and the villa's affairs also need someone to take care of them."
"Also, there's no need to be so troublesome about meals. The current environment is difficult, so we should be frugal. Xiaomu and I will have a few meals in this restaurant. We can just rent two adjacent rooms. There's no need to book the entire floor."
Liu Qingmei rejected Ye Yutan's suggestions one by one.
Hearing Liu Qingmei's words, Ye Yutan pursed his lips, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes, but still nodded firmly.
"Okay, I'll leave everything to my aunt!"
He just wanted his aunt to stay here for a while longer.
Even a little longer would be good.
As for his uncle and Cangjian Villa, they were not within his consideration at all.
In fact, in a way, if his uncle, who was seriously injured, died, it would be a better reflection of his feelings!
Liu Qingmei did not notice Ye Yutan's subtle mentality.
Zi Gu nodded and continued, "It's still early today, Yu Tan, go and invite Mr. Ye over. I want to talk to him."
"Prepare two more visiting cards. One is from Luo Changling, the head of the Luo family, and the other is from... Pi Taiyu, the governor of Yonghang City."
Mr. Ye’s full name is Ye Bonan. He is a member of the side branch of the Ye family. He has worked his way up to where he is today in the businesses under the Ye family. However, because of his status as a side branch, he is still required to pay homage to the lady of the main family despite his old age.
"Okay, Yu Tan will arrange the people, and everything will be done according to what my aunt wants."
Ye Yutan nodded and agreed without thinking.
……
Had lunch.
Liu Qingmei and Ning Mu returned to their respective rooms.
Ye Yutan arranged the things Liu Qingmei had asked him to do. He had spent almost the entire morning riding horses, and it would be a lie to say that he wasn't tired, even though he could lean on Liu Qingmei's back and enjoy her warmth and softness.
But the long-term bumps still make people feel like their bodies are falling apart.
Back in the room, Ning Mu lay down on the bed and took a nap under the care of the maid.
As for Liu Qingmei, she was not as relaxed as him.
He sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, resting his mind and using his inner strength to build up his energy. Less than half an hour later, there was a knock on the door.
It was Ye Bonan, the head manager of the store, who had arrived.
She could only hold on to her slightly tired body and talk with Mr. Ye.
In addition to Mr. Ye, there were two maids in the room.
As for Ye Yutan, who brought Mr. Ye here, he rolled his eyes and went to the door of the next room.
Tuk-tuk-tuk...
Ning Mu had just closed his eyes for a while when he heard a faint knock on the door and couldn't help but open his eyes.
Ever since he began practicing martial arts, his perception has become much stronger than before.
"Sir, it's the Third Young Master."
The maid came in to report.
Ye Yutan?
Ning Mu raised his eyebrows. Why did he come to see him?
With the help of the maid, Ning Mu got up from the bed, washed up simply, and went to the outer room.
"Brother Yutan, thank you for your hospitality. What do you want to see me about?"
Ning Mu clasped his fists and looked at Ye Yutan.
Ye Yutan smiled faintly and said mysteriously: "Brother Ning, this must be your first time in Yonghang City, right?"
"Exactly."
Ning Mu looked at him in confusion.
"Hehe, Yutan is incompetent and inferior in the way of cultivation, but he is quite familiar with the way of business and the customs of this prosperous city. Brother Ning has finally come here, and I'm afraid my aunt is not free today. Why don't you and I go out and have a good time, how about it?" Ye Yutan stared at Ning Mu with a mysterious smirk on his face, with instigation in his eyes.
Ning Mu was stunned.
He heard nothing else in this sentence.
"The road of romance?" Ning Mu showed an interested look.
Seeing Ning Mu coming up, Ye Yutan's eyes flashed with a look of success. He immediately waved his hand, signaling the maid to leave, and then whispered in her ear: "Yes, hey, Yonghang City has two pavilions and four floors, among which Huaman Pavilion stands out. The girls in Huaman Pavilion are all top-notch. Not only are they proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but each of them is also gorgeous and unparalleled in the world."
"There is a saying in Yonghang City: for meals, go to Ruyi Tower, and for wine, go to Huaman Pavilion."
"You can ask them to do whatever you want there, and I happen to know the most beautiful courtesan in Hua Man Pavilion. Why don't you take this opportunity to introduce her to Brother Ning?"
Ye Yutan kept encouraging with a wicked smile.
"It's not good, what if Master finds out..." Ning Mu pretended to glance in the direction of the next door unintentionally and said with a worried look on his face.
I saw great longing in his eyes, but he didn't dare to take action because of his aunt.
Ye Yutan immediately assured him, "Brother Ning, don't worry. I will not hear about this matter. No third person will know about it!"
"Besides, Brother Ning is full of vigor and vitality. He just wants to drink some wine and listen to some music with his brother. Isn't this normal?"
"Don't worry, my aunt won't take this little thing to heart."
Ye Yutan waved his hand and looked at Ning Mu sincerely.
"Well... okay, we're just going to listen to music and drink, nothing else!"
"Don't worry, are you worried about me being here? I will definitely not do anything else!"
"Then, let's go?"
"Let's go!" Ye Yutan grinned and immediately made way, "Brother Ning, please go first!"
"Brother Yutan, please."
"Brother Ning, please!"
"Together, together!"
