Chapter 536 [Old 9 Gates 15]
After the meal, some people who had things to do at home left one after another. Er Yuehong originally planned to take Chenpi with him, but Chenpi didn't seem to want to leave so early and kept looking for various reasons to delay. He said he felt uncomfortable here and there, and even claimed that he was too full and needed to digest before leaving.
Er Yuehong felt helpless and finally said to Chen Pi: "In this case, Chen Pi, you should stay in Jiu Ye's house for a while. I will go ahead."
Chen Pi answered without thinking, "Okay, then Master, you go back first. I don't want to go back yet."
At this time, Jiuye Jie showed a hint of displeasure on his face. The sister he just recognized was actually favored by Chenpi. The more he looked at Chenpi, the more he disliked him. This guy was always lazy and had a bad reputation. No matter what, he couldn't rest assured to hand Lin Yueyue over to such a person.
Master Jie Jiu said, "Chenpi, this is my Jie Mansion. What is there worth your lingering here? I remember that you never seemed to show such a strong interest in my Jie Mansion before. Why are you reluctant to leave today?"
Chen Pi responded with a playful smile: "Master Jiu, you don't know that as soon as I stepped into Jie Mansion today, I was deeply attracted by the beautiful scenery here. I think this place is simply too beautiful to be taken in, so I lingered there!"
Master Jie Jiu would not easily believe Chen Pi's words. He said seriously, "Don't try to trick me. Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. I'm afraid you have other intentions, but actually have a crush on our Yueyue."
Chen Pi realized that Master Jiu had seen through his thoughts, so he stopped trying to hide it and said, "Since Master Jiu knows everything, what do you think of me, Chen Pi? Will I have the honor of becoming your brother-in-law?"
After hearing this, Master Jie Jiu's face changed and he said unhappily, "Humph, you want to be my brother-in-law? Who do you think you are? I tell you, my Jie family does not welcome people like you. Second Master, why don't you take this unworthy disciple of yours away!"
Er Yuehong smiled and said to Chen Pi: "Chen Pi, did you hear that? Jiu Ye doesn't welcome you, so you'd better leave quickly! Besides, there's still a lot of time, so there's no need to rush."
After hearing Er Yuehong's words, Chen Pi's eyes flashed with a light, and he immediately responded: "Thank you for your guidance, Master Jiu. Chen Pi will take his leave first and will visit you again tomorrow." His tone revealed a firmness and determination.
Mr. Jie Jiu frowned and said seriously, "I won't be at home tomorrow, so don't come." His attitude was firm, and it seemed that he was unwilling to let Chen Pi come again.
However, Chen Pi was not discouraged by Mr. Jie Jiu's refusal. Instead, he continued to insist: "Is Miss Jie at home? I'm looking for her, not you, Mr. Jiu." His eyes revealed a kind of persistence and expectation.
Master Jie Jiu shook his head helplessly and said, "They are not here, so don't dream about it." There was a hint of impatience in his tone, and it was obvious that he didn't want to get entangled with Chen Pi anymore.
Seeing this, Youyou quickly advised: "Okay, brother, don't say anything more. Chenpi, go back with the Second Master first, and we will discuss this matter later."
"Yes." Chen Pi replied. He didn't dare to offend Jie Youyou. After all, she and Jie Yuchen were siblings, and Jie Youyou was also a good friend of Lin Yueyue. If he annoyed her, she might say bad things about him in front of Lin Yueyue, and it would be even more difficult for him to pursue Lin Yueyue.
After Chen Pi and Er Yue Hong left, Master Jie Jiu couldn't help but complain: "You You, you knew that boy had intentions towards Yue Yue, why did you still speak for him?"
Youyou smiled slightly and explained, "Brother, I've actually noticed that Yueyue and Chenpi are interested in each other."
"Ah? How did you know that?" asked Mr. Jiuye with a puzzled look on his face.
"If you observe carefully, you will find that the eye contact between them is full of love. Besides, they are in love with each other, why do you want to break them up? This will only make them hate you." Youyou analyzed patiently.
"You naughty girl, I'm doing this for your own good, but now I'm being nosy." Master Jie Jiu looked at You You helplessly, feeling a little aggrieved.
After hearing this, Youyou quickly grabbed Jie Jiuye's hand and said coquettishly: "Okay, brother, it's all my fault, don't be angry! Besides, even if Yueyue and Chenpi can be together, it will still take a long time. We don't need to rush now." She blinked and showed a mischievous smile.
Master Jie Jiu couldn't help laughing and patted Youyou's head gently: "You are the only one who can talk."
Youyou went on to say: "Besides, as Chenpi's brother, you can also exercise your duties as an older brother and make things difficult for him. Wouldn't that be more interesting?" There was a cunning gleam in her eyes.
When Master Jie Jiu heard this, he thought it made sense and nodded with a smile: "You are right. When they are really together, I must test Chen Pi carefully and not let him marry Yue Yue so easily."
Youyou laughed happily: "Haha, let's see how Chenpi responds then. Maybe he will even beg you for help."
The two smiled at each other, their hearts full of expectations for the future.
At this time, Qi Tiezui and Zhang Qishan on the side heard this and had their own thoughts.
Qi Tiezui looked at Xie Youyou and Xie Jiuye in front of him, and sighed in his heart. He knew that Zhang Qishan was a very charming man, but facing an opponent like Xie Jiuye, he might not be able to succeed easily. Xie Jiuye was an old fox in the business world, and no one could avoid being hurt by him.
"Tsk tsk tsk, now Master Buddha has finally met a match. This beauty is not so easy to embrace. When this woman becomes ruthless, it is really hard to guard against. Master Buddha finally fell in love with someone, but in the end, there were several huge mountains standing in his way. It's not easy." Qi Tiezui thought to himself.
Zhang Qishan was not shaken by Jie Jiuye's words. He had his own plans in mind.
"It's just a test. What does Zhang Qishan have to be afraid of? Sooner or later, Youyou will be the mistress of his Zhang family. It's just that my brother-in-law is a little difficult. What's the big deal?" Zhang Qishan thought secretly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
He decided to act quietly while Jiuye Jie was focusing all his efforts on Chenpi. He wanted to take the Youyou into his own bowl, and by the time Jiuye Jie came to his senses, everything would be a foregone conclusion. Of course, all this had to be done perfectly, and Jiuye Jie must not notice it.
Zhang Qishan was full of confidence and determination. He believed that he would succeed. After all, he was Zhang Dafoye, and nothing could stump him. At this time, Jiuye Jie didn't know Zhang Qishan's plan. He was just focused on how to protect Yueyue from harm.
