Chapter 67: Chapter 55 What A Good Kid
“That’s settled then, if you don’t mind, you can call
Sister He from now on.”
He Xiangming was a very straightforward person. Once she made up her mind, she pursued it.
“Sister He…this, I really couldn’t impose that on you—it would be inconvenient for you,” Feng Yin said, feeling uncomfortable.
“It wouldn’t be inconvenient at all. I am the one in charge here. Just put your heart in your stomach. Besides, you guys want to pick and breed young creatures to sell, and our Beast Taming Sect needs long-term, reliable clients.”
“You seem reliable to . However, what it will beco, we’ll have to see your ability. After all, if your ability is not enough, even if I want to assist you, I can’t.”
He Xiangming smiled quite warmly.
“That’s not good… Actually, I am confident in my abilities to breed pets, and I breed them well… I don’t need anything else. It’s just… ”
Feng Yin stuttered, “It’s just that my pets may get bargained down when they are sold. I have limited knowledge about the preliminary prices and sotis when I inadvertently sell them, I realize later that I had sold them at a loss… Sigh.”
“Hahahaha…”
He Xiangming burst out laughing, holding her belly. This little brother was really too honest. He might be an easy target for people to trick.
The image of him, so sincere and naive, being deceived and fooled was indescribably beautiful!
The sentence ‘I breed them well’ showed a bit too much confidence.
In front of , a high-ranking mber of the Beast Taming Sect, you’re saying you breed them well?
How well can you breed them?
“What’s so difficult about that? Your difficulty in dealing with such matters stems from your honesty and your lack of worldly experience. In this world, if you are too honest, you will get bullied! Don’t worry, from now on, leave these matters to . If you really breed them well, I can negotiate for the sect to buy them back from you.”
“As for normal buyers, that’s a piece of cake. It’s not challenging!”
“If your pets receive good comnts from everyone, I can introduce you to super high-end clients with just a word.”
He Xiangming laughed, boasting boldly, beating her chest: “Just relax, leave everything to your sister from now on.”
Feng Yin’s face turned even redder, stuttering: “But, Sister He, you are the head of the Beast Taming Sect in the Great Qin’s Tiannan District, you must be extrely busy… I feel bad to trouble you like this…”
“You don’t need to worry about that, it is my job. If I don’t help you, I help others. What, you don’t want it?”
The more Feng Yin resisted, the more active He Xiangming beca.
What started off as a bit of pity led to her wanting to help a bit, gradually becoming more and more determined.
Eventually, He Xiangming firmly and sowhat ‘domineeringly’ decided on the matter.
“Listen to !”
“This is settled!”
“Shut up!”
“Don’t talk!”
“What cut? You’re looking down on ? I won’t miss your little bit of money!”
He Xiangming showed off her dominance while scolding, “You silly little fool, I am giving you a break from earning your money and you aren’t even happy about it. Are you stupid!”
“Whatever happens in Yuezhou City’s territory, just tell !”
“Oh, you are so simple-minded, how can you be so simple-minded?”
By the end, there was a sense of exasperation in He Xiangming’s words.
She explicitly wanted to replace the two flying pets Feng Yin just bought with high-level ones. But Feng Yin, with his face turned red, adamantly disagreed nearly to the point of anxiety.
This made He Xiangming so mad she almost wanted to hit him.
The young one.
He had the opportunity to take shortcuts but kept resisting…
Having principles and persistence are good, but too much of them would be obstinacy and paranoia!
Sigh.
Though I just wanted to test you and assess your ability, I sincerely wanted to help you.
This guy really doesn’t appreciate favors.
His face was naive and anxious, but he knew in his heart that although this woman seed enthusiastic and helpful, once he accepted any of her offers, his status in her heart would plumt!
The goodwill he earned with his looks could not withstand any social reality blows!
How could he lose the big picture for minor gains and cut off his long-term wealth?
So he kept rejecting her while shaking his head non-stop.
“We’re not family or relatives, how could I be so greedy…”
“I can’t bear this, I’m, I’m… not used to it.”
“It’s really not possible. I’m not stubborn, I’m not oblivious, but I really can’t take advantage… really, really.”
“…”
The young Feng Yin stamred with his refusals, but he wanted to reject yet was polite at the sa ti. He maintained his youthful college of pride without compromise.
Finally, he successfully ticked He Xiangming off!
Can’t I, the first beauty of the Beast Taming Sect, even handle a young boy like you? Don’t I have any convincing power?
I’ve been continuously rejected by a minor like you!?
“Where are you staying now?”
Being on edge, He Xiangming asked authoritatively, “Take
to see!”
“No, no, that’s unacceptable!”
Feng Yin instinctively rejected her, shaking his head like a bobblehead doll.
He Xiangming’s eyes spun, fuming in annoyance: “Are you planning to verbally accept it now, and then disappear when you get back? So, you wouldn’t owe
any favors?”
Feng Yin was startled: “How did you know!? No, no, no, I’m not trying to…cough… actually, I an…”
Suddenly he was at a loss for words, unable to articulate his excuses.
The embarrassnt of having his lie exposed was clearly visible on the face of this na??ve young boy.
As expected.
He Xiangming gnashed her teeth in anger, pointing at Feng Yin’s forehead, “With your petty little mind, daring to play tricks in front of . Everything’s written on your face! Move it, take
now!”
Feng Yin imdiately staggered backwards under her finger’s force, his face full of embarrassnt and guilt.
“Move! Take
there!”
He Xiangming sternly directed him forward, as if escorting a prisoner.
Pushing him forward every couple of steps.
“Hurry up!”
Feng Yin was acting like the victim, his face full of innocent simplicity. He was speechless, stuttering, unwilling to comply. With his breathtaking appearance enough to drive a woman crazy, he reluctantly shuffled forward…
The entire way back, He Xiangming prodded him forward.
“Hurry up! Just a kid, why are you so hesitating, are you afraid that I will eat you up? What a silly boy!”
“I’ve never seen such a foolish boy like you!”
He Xiangming appeared more and more frustrated with Feng Yin’s lack of progress.
It’s killing her!
She observed here that won were quite peculiar creatures indeed.
Like Miss He Xiangming, when she initially proposed to help Feng Yin, she was half-joking. Had Feng Yin readily agreed at the ti, her help would be limited and condescending, viewing Feng Yin as rather insignificant.
Eventually, she may grow annoyed, finding Feng Yin unbearable — treating her courtesies as his deserved entitlent?
But Feng Yin’s shyness, stuttering, and both verbal and physical rejection made her more determined.
Especially when she realized that this boy planned to appease her temporarily, with the intention of never returning again, He Xiangming was utterly infuriated!
She was livid!
Furious!
Such a good-looking boy, yet so rigid and inflexible!
Fuming that Feng Yin was ungrateful!
Did he plan to disappear on her?
I just wanted to help you out!
I’m not so bloodthirsty beast.
What a fool, not just foolish, but fundantally hopeless!
Do you think you’re sothing special just because you’re good-looking?
Today, I will find your den! I want to see where you can run!
Let’s see you disappear on !
My influence is not limited to this area, it’s the entire Yuezhou City, the entirety of the Tiannan District of Great Qin. Let’s see how far your small bird can fly beyond my reach.
When they arrived at the mansion where Feng Yin was currently living, she saw the clean and tidy backyard, the elegant environnt, the lonely quiet.
Couldn’t help feeling so sympathy wit him.
“Are you living here all by yourself?” He Xiangming asked.
“Little Shadow is here too. We support each other.” Feng Yin was caressing Little Shadow happily, who was returning the affection.
He Xiangming suddenly felt a twinge in her heart.
This massive mansion, it looks like there was a whole big family living here at its height? Including household mbers and servants, there were at least twenty or thirty people conservatively estimated, right?
Now, only himself remaining, so deserted, so somber…
Looking at the other rooms, they were basically empty, devoid of anything. Just empty rooms, an empty yard, two isolated trees…
Presumably, the stuff in the other rooms must have been sold. Either because he was struggling with his day-to-day expenses, or perhaps he couldn’t bear the sight of the old belongings triggering his nostalgia?
He Xiangming felt a tightness in her chest.
Feng Yin still has that innocent smile on his face, seemingly na??ve and ignorant.
But on closer look, one can see the loneliness, helplessness, and sadness in his heart…
This child, it’s not easy.
Still so simple and upright despite such experience.
Such a good boy.

[I am so upset today! Darn fishbone!]
