Chapter 518: I'm craving her rabbit
As soon as Ye Wanxi said this, everyone's eyes in the room immediately turned to Shi Yuyan.
Shi Yuyan was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook her head: "No, no, no, that won't do!"
Why not?
"They already had a bad impression of me. If I really did that, wouldn't I be courting death? Besides, I'm not like that scumbag who would do anything to achieve his goal and deceive people's feelings. I'm serious about Xiaowan. I'm mostly just curious about their precious child, not trying to possess it."
"Just for a bit of curiosity, I cut off my own escape route and even dragged Xiao Wan into being criticized and blamed by her clan because of me. Do I look like such a stupid person?"
What Shi Yuyan didn't say was that his wife was already disheartened by him, and now he didn't know if she had already learned about what happened back then from her grandfather.
My impression of him was already bad, and now it might even be negative. If I were to do something underhanded, losing my life would be a small matter, but losing my wife would be a much bigger problem!
Ye Wanxi glanced at him and chuckled, "At least you have some brains. But how can you so confidently say that you're different from that scumbag who deceived people's feelings?"
"..." Stop cursing, stop cursing, or you'll become stupid!
Shi Yuyan pursed her lips and said miserably, "Do you think Xiao Wan already knows the real cause of her parents' death, so she doesn't want to see me at all?"
Before this, he thought that Grandpa Wu and others were stopping him from seeing Tao Wan, but now that he knows these things, Shi Yuyan is worried that Tao Wan herself doesn't want to see him.
"If that's the case, what are you going to do? Give up?"
"How is that possible?"
"Um?"
The others were also quite curious about what he planned to do. Under their curious gazes, Shi Yuyan said hesitantly, "At worst... at worst, I'll kneel for a few more nights until she's willing to come out and see me."
Everyone was quite surprised, especially Shi Lang, who walked over and patted the dog's head with great satisfaction.
Shi Yuyan's eyes brightened slightly. Thinking that he was worried about her, she called out foolishly, "Brother."
The next second, he sighed, "I really didn't expect that a prodigal son could turn over a new leaf, or that a teddy bear could become a loyal dog. Indeed, nothing is impossible in this world."
Shi Yuyan: "???" What do you mean a teddy bear can turn into a loyal dog? Is he even my brother?!
The group couldn't help but laugh as they listened to the two brothers' conversation.
After laughing, Ye Wanxi couldn't help but still care a little.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I'm just a little concerned about that flute."
Feng Tianyu narrowed his eyes: "Shall we steal it tonight?"
Ye Wanxi glanced at him in surprise and chuckled, "They were already wary of us. If we really stole their things, we might be kicked out tomorrow morning and blacklisted."
Ye Wanxi could tell that Wu Chi valued that flute very much, carrying it almost always with him and not showing it to others easily.
The entire village is wary of them now, so it's not a good time to borrow anything.
"Compared to this, I would rather see Tao Wan."
"Want me to go with you tonight?"
"Um."
What are you two whispering about?
Ye Wanxi and Shi Yuyan turned to look at each other and smiled, saying, "It's nothing."
The village, with about a hundred households, is neither too big nor too small, making it quite difficult to find someone who is locked up or hidden.
However, that's relative to the average person.
The two paper figures from Fengtian Domain once again demonstrated their innate advantage of being able to penetrate everywhere, and quickly found out the location of the grandfather and grandson.
Surprisingly, the place where the two were imprisoned was right near the ancestral hall, and that very night, when Shi Yuyan ran pitifully to kneel in the ancestral hall with a small pillow in her arms, Tao Wan was watching from just a wall away.
Ye Wanxi: "..." Should we say that someone is a fool who is lucky?
Fortunately, he was clear-headed and didn't have any ulterior motives towards the ancestral hall. He was determined to kneel down to the very end.
Otherwise, if you're really curious and start flipping through this and that, and someone's right here watching, regardless of whether you're curious or not, they could sentence you to death on the spot.
Tao Wan was startled when she saw Ye Wanxi and the other person, and almost cried out in surprise: "Ye..."
"Shh..." Ye Wanxi quickly made a shushing gesture to her and pointed in Shi Yuyan's direction.
Tao Wan seemed to wake from a dream, nodded, and followed Ye Wanxi and the other person outside.
"What brings Miss Ye here?"
“We came all this way just to find you. Since you’re avoiding us, we have to find our own way,” Ye Wanxi said, adding, “Don’t worry, he doesn’t know.”
Tao Wan opened her mouth, about to speak, when she heard a hissing sound.
Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw a small green snake swimming in from outside, followed by several of its Gu minions.
"Xiao Kui".
"Hiss..." Little Sunflower ignored its little master's calls and swam to Ye Wanxi, straightened up, and stared at Ye Wanxi with its tiny, bean-sized eyes.
Judging from its posture, it's a bit like a snake waiting for a better price before hunting its prey.
Ye Wanxi was a little surprised to see this. The last time she saw this little snake was at Shi Yuyan's house. At that time, it was quite friendly to her and a little arrogant. She even fed it a few pieces of apple.
Has he already forgotten about her and now considers her an enemy?
Before Ye Wanxi could think further, everyone saw Xiao Kui slurp and start drooling over the little rabbit in Ye Wanxi's arms.
Little rabbit: "?!"
Ye Wanxi: "..." So, this snake is after her rabbit?
Realizing that its plump body had been targeted, the little rabbit instantly bristled and unleashed a flurry of rabbit-style flying punches. If Ye Wanxi hadn't been holding it down, it probably would have already rushed out and smashed the snake's head.
Tao Wan clearly noticed Xiao Kui's greedy look and said awkwardly, "Xiao Kui, they are guests, it's not allowed. I'm sorry, Miss Ye, it..."
"Cough cough, it's alright. Snakes eat anything, and our rabbit is so fat." How could it not be tempted?
After thinking for a moment, Ye Wanxi took out a bright red apple from her storage ring and pulled it out under the cover of her backpack.
“The little one is raised by our family and can’t be eaten. Here’s an apple for you as compensation.”
The little rabbit was so angry that it kept hissing when its owner not only didn't stand up for it but also gave the snake an apple.
Helpless, Ye Wanxi whispered, "I'll feed you carrots later," before she could finally calm the little guy down.
Xiao Kui wasn't stupid either. It could sense that these two guests were not to be trifled with. Most importantly, it had an instinctive affinity for Ye Wanxi and would never actually harm what she had.
Otherwise, they wouldn't just be drooling; they would have pounced on their prey and killed it long ago.
