165: Chapter 165 165: Chapter 165 The atmosphere in the living room beca increasingly oppressive, and Lv Nan no longer wanted to stay any longer.
“Big sister, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first.”
“Little Nan, I heard that you’ve been interacting with Dong Cheng from Bohai Company?”
“There have been so interactions, recently quite close,” since she already knew, Lv Nan did not want to hide it anymore, “his intention is to let take this opportunity…”
Zheng Xinru raised her hand, signaling her not to say any further, “What he said to you, I don’t care.
What I an is, so things are better discussed together.
Let’s do it tomorrow, you contact him, and everyone can et.
He can decide the location.”
Looking at the charming and elegant eldest sister sitting across from her, Lv Nan was montarily unsure how to proceed.
Zhang Xiayang had told Ye Tian when handing over his mobile phone that all the contacts in it are trustworthy, so he could rest assured.
It was only when Ye Tian unlocked the phone that he discovered there were only two numbers in the contact list.
That ant, the so-called trustworthy people Zhang Xiayang referred to were actually only two people.
“You deserve to be on the run!”
Ye Tian spat on the ground in anger.
It was a vast responsibility to manage the Chen family with just two people.
On his side, apart from Zhang Houtu, the other two, one was a sick old man and the other a crafty worldly society old hand who specialized in crooked ways, could hardly be relied upon.
Even if these two people were summoned, there would still be only three people barely fit for use, and that was the best case scenario.
What if these two lords turned out to be difficult to serve and decided to just drop everything and quit.
Angry as he was, he still had to make the call.
After dialing the phone, Ye Tian didn’t speak.
He waited for the other party to talk, but it seed the person on the other end had the sa idea, calmly waiting for him to speak first.
After a stalemate of about ten seconds, soone finally spoke on the other end of the line.
“Friend or foe?”
Ye Tian paused, then said, “Friend.”
“Where are you?
We’ll co to find you.”
Such a straightforward response was unexpected to Ye Tian, and it also sowhat clarified what Zhang Xiayang ant by trustworthy people.
Only those who didn’t hesitate to put their lives in your hands could truly be considered trustworthy.
Ye Tian had made the call in the morning, and by noon, people had arrived.
Zhang Daniu, Xu Qingyang, two nas whose anings and simple strokes were completely opposite appeared in front of Ye Tian in bizarre and dramatic ways.
“Have…
have you eaten?” Shadowed by the towering figure of Zhang Daniu, Ye Tian swallowed his saliva and asked strenuously.
Seeing Tang Su coming out behind Ye Tian, Zhang Daniu said sowhat embarrassedly, “Hehe, sorry to disturb you guys during lunch, my apologies.”
Looking at the thick dust covering their clothes, Tang Su wondered if these two had just hurried over from farming work.
Hastily stepping aside, she made room, “Co quickly, co in, haven’t you eaten yet?
Sit down quickly.
Ye Tian, hurry and invite your friends inside, I’ll go reheat the leftover dishes, do they drink alcohol…”
“No need.”
The hostess, who was enthusiastically welcoming the guests, felt a bit embarrassed upon hearing the guest’s cool response, and her hands slowly stiffened while she arranged the tableware.
“Hehehe, Qingyang didn’t an it that way, our bodies are dusty, it’s not appropriate,” Zhang Daniu tried to diate the situation, though the excuse barely held, it was at least complented by a smile even thicker than Zhang Houtu’s.
Tang Su smiled.
In the world of business, she had seen more cunning and slick people; this situation was simpler than a family dinner.
“Ye Tian, you go ahead and accompany your friends.”
Ye Tian nodded gratefully at her and closed the door.
In his mind, he actually wanted to send Tang Su back to the Tang Family; even if that wasn’t possible, finding a place for her to live in nearby Beiping City or Tianhe City would be better than staying in this desolate Huairou.
It was an eventful ti; in a few days, everyone in this circle would know that the person in charge of the Chen family wasn’t Zhang Xiayang, but soone nad Ye Tian.
By then, it would be too late for Tang Su to leave.
In the eyes of these people, the daughter of the city’s party secretary was nothing remarkable.
In the end, it was Tang Su’s own words that dispelled all of Ye Tian’s thoughts, “Ye Tian, without being by your side, even if I were in the Imperial City, I’d feel like a person without roots.”
The three of them didn’t go far, just about fifty ters to a lakeside grove, equipped with so simple fitness equipnt.
Ye Tian sat at one end of a seesaw, and Zhang Daniu and Xu Qingyang found places to sit.
The tower-like Zhang Daniu sat opposite Ye Tian, instantly lifting him up.
This guy was almost on par with Zhang Houtu.
Ye Tian looked around and coughed awkwardly, then jumped down to sit on a sit-up bench.
“What’s his trouble?”
True to being friends, even the tone of their voice was consistent.
If not for their dusty clothes, Xu Qingyang almost seed to overlap with the figure of the White Butterfly Knife.
Zhang Daniu scratched the back of his head, chuckling, “Don’t mind him, he always speaks like that, cold as ice.”
Ye Tian shook his head to show it was fine.
The big guy continued, “Both our lives were saved by Zhang Xiayang.
According to worldly society rules, our lives are now his.
Since he let you contact us, our lives are yours now.
Don’t be surprised, we may be runaways in the worldly society, but we still know the basic principles of that world.
Just tell us what you need us to do, and we’ll do our best.
If we can do it, great.
If not, we’d be ashad to be friends of the White Butterfly Knife.
Qingyang, don’t ask too much; he’s encountered so troubles, as you saw just now.
This brother has a family too, probably facing so difficulties.
Given Zhang Xiayang’s nature, even if the sky fell, he wouldn’t make a sound; it must be so truly indispensable people and matters this ti.”
Xu Qingyang sat woodenly, not speaking or showing any expression, just staring at Ye Tian for a long while before finally saying, “Besides Zhang Xiayang, I won’t give my life to anyone else.”
Ye Tian walked over and patted his shoulder, then took out a cigarette packet from his pocket and offered one, “Have one?”
“Thanks.
I don’t smoke.”
Asking Zhang Daniu, he also waved his hand toward Ye Tian, “I can’t stand the sll, never mind.”
Seeing that neither of them smoked, Ye Tian also put the cigarette he was holding back into his mouth case.
