210: Chapter 210 210: Chapter 210 Chen Xing was wearing a pair of gray cotton slippers with little bears on them and a short-sleeved T-shirt, apparently having co down in a hurry.
It was raining outside, and the weather was quite cold, no wonder she was so irritable.
However, her blonde hair was gone, replaced with sleek, neat black short hair that lay against her clean face, giving off the impression of a well-behaved girl, beautifully captivating, in no way inferior to her mother, the star courtesan of Oiran.
The row of earrings that had adorned her ears had also vanished.
Ye Tian thought to himself, she wasn’t a bad girl, so why did she feel the need to dress herself up like that?
For so reason, the elevator stopped on the twenty-third floor and just wouldn’t budge.
Chen Xing was frantically pressing the up button, thankfully, the elevator’s buttons were installed on the wall.
If they were any lower, Chen Xing might have started kicking them.
“Do you need to find you an axe to chop it down?”
“I’ll chop you down!” Chen Xing’s eyes were glaring like traffic lights, especially one that was emitting a faint green light.
Ye Tian fell silent, annoyed with himself for being a masochist, looking for trouble for no reason.
Finally, the elevator passed the twenty-third floor ‘checkpoint’ and continued, only to get stuck in the gap at the twentieth floor, driving Chen Xing, whose patience had already reached the breaking point, to completely lose her temper.
“Ye Tian, go get an axe!”
“You gonna chop down this elevator?”
“Or should I chop you down?”
Ye Tian fell silent, shrinking his neck and no longer speaking, just squatting on the floor immobile.
Already furious, Chen Xing saw Ye’s half-dead appearance and felt her anger surge.
But in this narrow stairwell space, what could she do?
She could only stamp her feet in frustration.
How was she to know it would be so cold outside and the elevator would take so long?
If she had known, she would have worn more clothes.
She was freezing to death!
“Hey!”
“What?
You really want to find you an axe?”
“Yes!
If you can’t find one, give your clothes!
Hurry up!”
“…Then I’ll go find an axe for you.
Hey, what are you doing!
We shouldn’t have such physical contact, I’m still a virgin boy, a genuine, unspoiled young man, you shouldn’t… Ouch, you…”
Amid Ye Tian’s struggle and cries, Chen Xing stripped off his jacket and put it on herself, while his white shirt lost two buttons, looking disheveled.
Chen Xing, on the other hand, was satisfied with putting on the jacket, ticulously fastening the buttons, looking contentedly at Ye Tian crouched on the ground protecting his own body, taking delight in her victory.
Wait a minute!
This scene looks a bit weird!
“Ding-dong!” The elevator doors opened, and a group of people ca out, n and won, old and young, quite a few.
However, the scene outside the elevator elicited heartfelt sighs from all of them, bemoaning the decline of social morals.
A young woman saw the two of them and quickly covered her child’s eyes while also turning her head away.
A pair of elderly people out for a walk murmured about “averting one’s eyes from improprieties,” while two or three young n and won seed used to such sights and glanced over before returning to their phones.
Ye Tian looked at Chen Xing with a sly grin.
After everyone had left, he coolly walked into the elevator, “You coming in?”
“Coming!”
As the elevator doors slowly closed, the whole building could hear a blood-curdling scream coming from inside the elevator.
When Lin Jingran, who was wearing an apron, ca out to open the door and saw Ye Tian in such a sorry state and then saw the man’s suit on Chen Xing, it was clear to her what had happened.
She hadn’t even had a chance to scold Chen Xing when the latter walked into the room without giving Lin Jingran a chance to speak.
“Sister Lin, I’m busy right now.”
“Co on in, why are you so late?
Did you get stuck in traffic?”
“Oh, no, no.
Just so minor things, minor things.”
Ye Tian awkwardly entered the door, too lazy to ntion what had just happened in the elevator.
After all, he had already played a trick on Chen Xing once, and it seed inappropriate to talk about it again.
“Ye, you just sit down for a mont, the dishes will be ready soon.
Xing, co out quickly, lend a hand.
Ye, please have a seat.”
Lin Jingran had called out intending to help, but Ye Tian had no choice but to sit down.
He watched Chen Xing co out from the back room, already changed into warr clothing.
Her cheeks appeared sowhat pale, looking like she had been chilled through.
“What are you looking at!
Take your stinky jacket!”
Ye Tian caught the jacket, then made a face at her retreating back, thinking, what does this little girl know.
Leaning on the sofa, Ye Tian carefully observed the ho; although there were only the mother and daughter, the atmosphere was quite warm.
It was just missing a man—if Chen Pingrui were here, it would probably be an enviable family.
The dishes weren’t complex—just simple ho cooking like squirrel-shaped mandarin fish, bone soup, stir-fried at with greens—both at and vegetables were present.
If Ye Tian hadn’t seen that beautiful shadow busying with the ladle in the kitchen, he wouldn’t believe these delicious dishes were all made by Lin Jingran’s own hands.
“Chopsticks.”
“Thanks.” He took the chopsticks from Lin Jingran, but Chen Xing gave him a ruthless glare, with a sneer that seed to look down on him.
Ye Tian didn’t bother arguing; urged by Lin Jingran, he started eating.
“Hmph, you really live up to being a coachman.
You co to eat and can’t even say ‘Happy Birthday’, yet you have the nerve to grab the chopsticks and eat.”
“Xing!”
“Hmph!”
Seeing that Lin Jingran was getting angry, Chen Xing glared at him and then buried her head in eating her rice.
“I’m sorry, Ye Tian.
Xing is still young and doesn’t understand, don’t take it to heart.”
“It’s alright, she’s just a child.
I wouldn’t take such small things to heart…”
“Sure, kicked out by a single foot and didn’t even see what beca of him; I make a few barbs at him, why would he take offense?
Mom, you’re overthinking it.
Hey, how much money did Zheng Xinru give you?”
Ye Tian smiled, “It’s alright, Sister Zheng has been good to , at least worth more than the things I’ve done.”
“Hmph, I heard you got slashed a few tis on Nanshan, true or false?
Lucky they didn’t kill you, otherwise…
Hmph.
Oh, just kidding, co on, eat, eat, Mapo tofu, eat where you need to improve.” Chen Xing served Ye Tian a chopstick-full of pale tofu, insisting it was pig brain.
Ye Tian thanked her repeatedly, “Thank you, Sister Xing.
Here, brother will give you so more chicken breast.”
Huh?…
You’re the one without any breasts!
Watching Ye Tian’s smug grin, Chen Xing ntally cursed all of Ye Tian’s ancestors.
Ye Tian had no idea how the two of them knew about him being kicked out.
Logically, Zheng Xinru shouldn’t have spread the incident; theoretically, the fewer people knew, the better, as it certainly wasn’t sothing to boast about.
