Chapter 1501: An Uninvited Guest
If Yang Ming was a coward and had stamred, Wang Ruoshui would have to reconsider the marriage between him and her niece. Her niece could not marry a good-for-nothing, right? If Yang Ming appealed or fought for so conditions, then Wang Ruoshui was really going to give up on Yang Ming. How could such a person be worthy of her niece?
If he didn’t have a man’s courage and spirit, Wang Ruoshui would naturally look down at Yang Ming. However, since Yang Ming had readily agreed to her request, Wang Ruoshui saw Yang Ming’s value.
If Yang Ming knew Wang Ruoshui’s idea, he would probably be dumbfounded. If Yang Ming had used his special abilities at this ti, Yang Ming would likely have pretended to be a coward and let Wang Ruoshui directly give up on him. But unfortunately, Yang Ming’s ability was not available at any ti. If Yang Ming knew that it was a mistake to promise so easily, he would probably regret it, right?
“Well, now that we have agreed on the duel ti, let’s have a al first!” Wang Songshan diated, laughed twice, and then said to the disciples of Wang Family who were close by, “Serve the dishes.”
“Yes!” The disciple of the Wang Family who was waiting aside responded quickly and left the restaurant. Not long after, plates filled with exotic delicacies were served on the table one by one. These dishes should have been prepared in advance, and cooking them was the last step. The dishes would be available soon after Wang Songshan gave the order.
“We’re all family, so I won’t drink.” Wang Songshan was not fond of alcohol, and it was inappropriate for him and Fang Tian to drink with Wang Ruoshui present. After speaking, Wang Songshan took the lead and picked up his chopsticks. After that, Wang Ruoshui and Fang Tian also started to pick up their chopsticks.
Yang Ming was already very hungry, but it was inappropriate to gorge himself with food in this situation. He just buried his head and ravished the two dishes in front of him without turning the table.
“Ruoshui, you haven’t tasted the dishes at ho for a long ti, right?” Wang Songshan laughed and said, “These dishes on the table today are all products of Chef Mitteson. These are the ones you wanted to eat the most when you were young.”
“Uncle Mitteson? He is still the chef?” Wang Ruoshui was surprised when she heard it, and her expression was filled with reminiscence…
“He has been the manager of the restaurant for a long ti. Now the head chef at ho is the apprentice of Manager Mitteson. He has mastered Mitteson’s craft. However, once Manager Mitteson heard that you ca back, he happily cooked personally because he knew that you liked to eat his dishes!” Wang Songshan explained.
“Yeah, many years have passed. Uncle Mitteson, who was in his pri, is around seventy years old now, right? I wonder if his body is still healthy?” Wang Ruoshui sighed.
“It’s okay, he’s in a good state of mind. After dinner, you can go and see him. He misses you too, but he is currently busy in the kitchen!” said Wang Songshan.
“I must go.” Wang Ruoshui nodded. “Among the old people in the family, who is left?”
“Ai…” Wang Songshan sighed. “So people have died, others are old and have returned to their hotown. Other than Mitteson who has been unmarried his whole life, Butler Mu is the only one still staying at the Butterfly Castle.”
“Uncle Mu… He is already a butler?” Wang Ruoshui nodded, “That is why no one knew when I returned this ti around…”
“Yeah, otherwise you wouldn’t be blocked at the door.” Wang Songshan said. “If Butler Mu had not accompanied your niece Yan… Little Butterfly to shop in the town, he would not have you turned away.”
Wang Songshan secretly thought that it was a narrow escape. He almost said “Yanyan” before he noticed it! If he hadn’t rembered in ti, it would’ve probably been exposed. His daughter’s na had to be hidden from Yang Ming, so he quickly changed his words to “Little Butterfly”.
Little Butterfly was Wang Xiaoyan’s nickna. Before Wang Xiaoyan was born, Wang Songshan’s father gave the na Butterfly Wang to her. But later, Wang Songshan felt that the na of Butterfly Wang was a bit unsophisticated, so he changed it to Wang Xiaoyan. Wang Xiaoyan had grown up in recent years, so Wang Songshan began to call her Yanyan instead of Little Butterfly.
However, Wang Ruoshui left ho before Wang Xiaoyan’s birth. All she knew was that her father had already thought of a good na—Butterfly Wang.
This was the first ti Yang Ming heard his “fiancee’s” na. Is she called Butterfly Wang? This Butterfly Family is quite unique, the na given is also related to the butterfly.
While Wang Songshan and Wang Ruoshui reminisced about the past, a Butterfly Family disciple quickly walked into the restaurant with his face solemn. He stopped in front of Wang Songshan. It was Wang Kezhao, the disciple who was responsible for patrolling outside the Butterfly Family’s castle.
“Master, I have sothing to report.” Wang Kezhao lowered his body and whispered in Wang Songshan’s ear.
“Wang Kezhao, what’s the matter?” Wang Songshan rembered Wang Kezhao’s na, but was dissatisfied that he had been disturbed. He was reminiscing about the past with Wang Ruoshui. Just as he was enjoying himself, he was interrupted. No one would like this feeling.
However, Wang Songshan did not show his dissatisfaction because he knew that in the Butterfly Castle, the disciples would usually report these things to Butler Mu. Butler Mu was not at ho today, so these disciples could only report to their Master.
“Master, Young Master Goode of the Douglas family is here. He is right in front of Butterfly Castle…” Wang Kezhao said quickly.
“Oh? Why is he here at this ti?” Wang Songshan frowned, Wang Songshan knew Goode’s intention well, but today his sister Wang Ruoshui had just returned. How could he have the mood to deal with Goode?
“I’m not clear…” Wang Kezhao shook his head. Even if he guessed sothing in his heart, he wouldn’t simply talk about it. After all the disciples of the Butterfly Family had very strict discipline; they were not allowed to speak unnecessarily.
Young Master Goode of the Douglas family liked Wang Xiaoyan, the Miss of the Butterfly Family. This was an open secret in high society. How could the disciples of the Butterfly Family not know this?
In fact, there was no need to ask Young Master Goode why he was here at this ti. His intentions were clear; he ca for Yang Ming! The news of Wang Xiaoyan’s upcoming engagent was spread from Wang Songshan’s mouth. Everyone in the local upper class knew about it. Young Master Goode was no exception. So, the reason he had co here must have a direct relationship with Wang Xiaoyan’s engagent.
“You tell him that there are important guests at ho. I’m entertaining these guests and I don’t have the ti to receive him. If he doesn’t have any important matters, ask him to co again another day…” Wang Songshan hesitated and instructed Wang Kezhao. Although this Young Master Goode also had a background, he was from a younger generation. It was normal for Wang Songshan to not see him; there was nothing rude about it.
Of course, if the Master of the Douglas family had co, then Wang Songshan would have to personally receive him even if he was unwilling.
“Master, I had already told him that you are having a al and that I would co to inform you. But Young Master Goode didn’t listen to at all and went straight to the fort. Although so disciples at the door are trying to desperately stop him, I’m afraid… “Wang Kezhao said carefully. Although he didn’t finish talking, Wang Songshan most probably understood what Wang Kezhao ant to say.
Wang Songshan frowned after hearing. Wang Kezhao hadn’t finished talking, but he didn’t need to say anymore. Wang Songshan certainly understood what Wang Kezhao was going to say, so he waved his hand to signal that he knew.
This matter is a bit tricky! Of course, Wang Songshan did not expect the disciples at the entrance to have the ability to stop Goode, not to ntion that these disciples did not dare to take action against him due to his identity. Even if they did take action, they were not Goode’s opponent.
If Goode wanted to force his way in, these people likely couldn’t stop him! When Wang Songshan was hesitating, there was a loud noise at the restaurant door. Then, a white man strode into the restaurant. Behind the white man were several n wearing the clothing of the Butterfly Family’s disciples. They were all bitter faced as they helplessly chased after the white man that had co in.
Chapter 1501: Young Master Goode
This white man was the young master and direct successor of the Douglas Family! In other words, he was the next head of the Douglas family if nothing particular happened.
However, Wang Songshan was still very dissatisfied with Goode’s unreasonable behavior of intruding into the Butterfly Castle’s restaurant. Others were afraid of the Douglas Family, but Wang Songshan was not!
Conversely, as expected, the Douglas Family was very afraid of the Butterfly Family. No matter how prominent a family was, they would have so fear towards a family of assassins and unconventional gambits such as the Butterfly Family.
No one would ever play with their own lives. Once they oppose the Butterfly Family, you must know that everyone in the family was an assassin. Perhaps many families were not afraid of those who were openly violent, but they were not the opponents of those who did assassinations like the Butterfly Family.
The Douglas Family was the underworld family in Ello Town, where the Butterfly Castle was located. The current master, Goode’s father, Elt Douglas, was the godfather of Ello Town.
People of the underworld families would inevitably be a little arrogant, but in Wang Songshan’s eyes, they were nothing.
“Goode, what are you doing here?” Wang Songshan stared at Goode with a somber expression. “Even Elt doesn’t dare to be so presumptuous!”
“Uncle Wang, please don’t be angry! I don’t have ill intentions!” Goode’s Chinese was fluent, but his tone was a bit strange. This Young Master is not as reckless and idiotic as he seems. That was Yang Ming’s initial impression of him.
Although Yang Ming didn’t know what Goode wanted to do, soone who dared to break into the Butterfly Castle was probably not ordinary. It was apparent based on Wang Songshan’s attitude towards Goode. Since Wang Songshan did not beco hostile on the spot and teach Goode a lesson, it showed that the forces behind Goode were not ordinary.
However, Yang Ming originally thought that even if the forces behind Goode were powerful, he was just a reckless idiot. In any case, it was a stupid move for anyone to break into the Butterfly Family, even if the power behind them was huge.
But after hearing Goode’s fluent Mandarin, Yang Ming changed his mind. Since this guy knew multiple languages, it didn’t look like he was ntally retarded. Then, he ca in at this mont because there was no other choice.
“Don’t have ill intentions?” Wang Songshan sneered, “If you have ill intentions, do you think you could still stand here and talk?”
Wang Songshan’s impolite tone caused Goode to have a slightly stunned expression, but he also understood that his approach did warrant Wang Songshan’s annoyance.
“I’m sorry, Uncle Wang, but I have no other choice!” Goode lowered his head and said apologetically.
“Well, no matter what’s the deal, I have important guests today. I have no ti to bother with you.” Wang Songshan waved his hand, “You can co back tomorrow.”
Goode understood that Wang Songshan was asking him to leave, but he gritted his teeth. Now that he was here, he might as well be presumptuous again. If his father knew why he had co here, he probably wouldn’t scold him.
“Uncle Wang, I heard that Little Butterfly is getting engaged?” Goode took a deep breath, looked up, and looked at Wang Songshan.
“That’s right, the Douglas Family should have received the news.” Wang Songshan thought, So it was really because of this matter. It seems that I had guessed correctly. However, I think that this is the only thing that would make this young man lose his mind and break into the Butterfly Castle.
“I heard that Little Butterfly’s fiance is a person that she has never t?” Goode saw that Wang Songshan had answered his question and did not ask him to leave again, so he was imdiately relieved. As long as Wang Songshan did not expel him on the spot, he could reason with truths and touch others with his heart.
“This is an internal matter of the Butterfly Family. You don’t need to know.” Wang Songshan said plainly, “Goode, if you are here to congratulate, then I will welco it. But if you are here to cause trouble, then I am sorry. No matter the relationship I have with your father, I will not give him face. You will get the punishnt you deserve!”
Goode was stunned in his heart. He naturally knew the Butterfly Family’s weight in Ello Town’s upper class. It could be said that the Butterfly Family was a transcendent family. Any family, including his own Douglas Family, wanted to have a good relationship with them! Although his family was also very prominent and other families would act as sycophants towards them, the Butterfly Family wouldn’t be like this.
However, Goode was already determined, so he would rather anger Wang Songshan than cower! He couldn’t cower when it involved his feelings!
“Uncle Wang, you don’t have to scare . I’m a man!” Goode said, “Please let finish my words. You can punish afterward. I will endure it!”
Wang Songshan was slightly stunned. He didn’t expect this Goode to be so stubborn. For a mont, he was dumbfounded; he didn’t know what to say.
However, Goode did not wait for Wang Songshan to speak, and self-servingly said, “Uncle Wang, what era is this? Such a hasty engagent is unfair to Little Butterfly. Would she be happy about marrying a man she has never t?”
“Whether she’s happy or not, you have no right to comnt.” Wang Songshan said plainly.
“If I’m not wrong, Little Butterfly also rejected this marriage, right?” Goode continued, “Uncle Wang, you don’t have to deny that Little Butterfly ran away from ho to escape the marriage. We all know that this illustrated her attitude!”
“Everyone was young and frivolous once. She is back now.” Wang Songshan’s tone was still plain and not angry; not even the slightest emotions were evident.
“No, I believe that Little Butterfly will not like her fiance. They have no emotional foundation!” Goode argued.
“Goode, you have said so much just because you want to give up the engagent,” Wang Songshan glanced at Goode and said, “I know exactly what you are thinking.”
Goode’s face reddened after being exposed, but he still gritted his teeth and said, “Uncle Wang, since you know that, please allow it!”
“I don’t know if my daughter will like her fiance.” Wang Songshan said. “But Goode, what I want to tell you is that she doesn’t like you!”
“I …” Wang Songshan’s words made Goode’s pale face even paler in an instant. This sentence triggered Goode’s deepest scar!
Sure, Butterfly Wang didn’t like him; Goode was clear about that. Even when the children of the upper class gathered, they all half-jokingly said that he and Butterfly Wang were a couple. In fact, Goode was secretly very clear that the reason why everyone said so was because they were completely fearful of the Douglas Family’s power!
Although he had repeatedly declared his dominion over Butterfly Wang, no one had objected to it because other people didn’t dare to compete with him. However, Butterfly Wang didn’t have that kind of feeling for him. Otherwise, her attitude wouldn’t be cold towards him.
However, Goode believed that with his perseverance, Butterfly Wang would be impressed. In Ello Town, only he was worthy of Butterfly Wang. With ti and the absence of any competitors, it wouldn’t be hard for him to conquer Butterfly Wang. They were the perfect and destined match, and were in the sa social class.
Even when Butterfly Wang left ho, Goode did not lose his confidence because it also represented Butterfly Wang’s resistance to her family arrangents. Also, he was not afraid that Butterfly Wang would have any relationships with others while she was away because he had learned of the agreent made between Wang Songshan and Butterfly Wang through secret channels.
During the period that Butterfly Wang was away, dating was not allowed! Therefore, Goode believed that as long as Butterfly Wang returned, he would make the most out of it. Butterfly Wang would most probably choose rather than the fiancé that she hasn’t t, right?
Between the two of us, I’m soone who Butterfly Wang does not hate. As for feelings, they can be grood!
