Chapter 305 Buy Out of Hand, No Regrets

It's still raining.

The spring rain had clearly drenched the entire Chang'an City. This thousand-year-old ancient capital was covered in a layer of faint water vapor in the drizzle, so much so that the dark mansion across the street seemed to have a somewhat unreal flavor.

"Old sir, this is the money for buying a house. Please count it." The youth with the black cat on his shoulder and the white cloth tied to his right arm respectfully handed the old man a money bag.

The old man in sackcloth took the money bag and looked at it with a smile on his face.

"Enough already." He nodded repeatedly and said goodbye to the youth before slowly retreating.

The youth watched the old man leave until his back disappeared into the hazy drizzle. Only then did the youth turn his head to look at the room in front of him.

It was an extremely small courtyard. The wooden door of the mansion was in ruins, and there were even a few gaps on it. It seemed to have been corroded by the wind and rain, and it had not been repaired for a long time.

The teenager looked at the manor gate, but he smiled and nodded, as if he was very satisfied with the new residence.

"Xuan'er, we'll be staying here from today onwards." He smiled and looked at the black cat on his shoulder. He reached out and touched the black cat's head.

The black cat blinked its amber eyes and tilted its head to look at the youth. It did not seem to understand what he meant, but it enjoyed the youth's touch. It rubbed the youth's neck and let out a satisfied grunt.

The youth smiled when he saw this. He turned around and looked at the corner of the street. Several snooping gazes were withdrawn at that time. The youth did not mind. He looked at the dark mansion opposite him and bowed towards it. He said loudly, "From today onwards, I will be neighboring the first lord. Please give me more advice."

After saying this, he ignored the peeping wolves and turned around to walk into the small courtyard.

…

"Big Brother Xu, you bought a house beside the Zhu Manor and settled down." Liu Xiao cupped his hands towards Ye Hongjian and said. The boy frowned slightly, obviously worried about this matter.

Ye Hongjian, who was sitting in the position of Manor Master, turned to look at Liu Xiao. It had to be said that this young man was quite intelligent. In just a few months, he had thoroughly understood the affairs of the Tian Ce Mansion . Nearly half of the new entrants were managed by teenagers.

"What? Are you worried about him?" Ye Hongjian asked.

"Yes." Liu Xiao nodded and did not conceal his thoughts. "Although Big Brother Xu is a bit reckless, he is still doing this for the Tian Ce Mansion . I don't understand why he must leave."

"This is his own choice." Ye Hongjian said in a deep voice.

"Then should we just watch him die?" The youth was quite dissatisfied with such a statement. He clearly remembered that if Xu Han hadn't risked his life to go to Young Master Gu's courtyard, he and his sister wouldn't have dared to imagine how they would have farmed.

"What? You want to find him?" Ye Hongjian raised her eyebrows and asked.

The youth's expression changed slightly when he heard this, but he still nodded in the end.

"Does Mo'er know about this?" However, Ye Hongjian did not entangle herself with him on this issue and instead asked.

The youth shook his head, "According to your meaning, this news hasn't been told to Mo'er and Big Sister Keqing, but it can't be wrapped in paper. Sooner or later, they will know."

"Yes." Ye Hongjian nodded, "You can hide it for a while."

After saying that, the two of them fell into silence, while Ye Hongjian frowned and her expression was gloomy.

Seeing that Ye Hongjian was like this, the youth gritted his teeth and always summoned the courage to say, "Sister Ye, let's go and persuade Big Brother Xu. He's out alone, so it's not a solution. If there's anything else, let's solve it together, okay?"

Hearing this, Ye Hongjian took a deep look at the youth and then said, "Stabilize Mo'er and Keqing first. Tell them not to act rashly. Leave this matter to me. I will personally go find him and see what he intends to do."

Hearing this, Liu Xiao's face immediately became happy. He hurriedly nodded, "Good! Good! Sister Ye, don't worry, I will definitely stop Mo'er and Keqing."

After the youth finished speaking, he was dismissed.

Ye Hongjian sat alone in Nuo Da's mansion and remained silent for a long time. Then, she nodded and muttered, "Enemies."

After saying that, she also stood up and wanted to go out of the manor to look for that person.

However, when she arrived at the door, a figure suddenly appeared.

It was a man in a blue robe with slightly frosty temples. He was around forty years old.

When Ye Hongjian saw that person's appearance clearly, she couldn't help but softly call out, "Father?"

Hearing this, the man smiled. "Let's have a chat," he said.

…

As the night fell, Xu Han sat alone in the room of the dilapidated mansion.

There were red candles lit on the wooden tables in the room. The candle flames flickered, illuminating the scene in the room. Outside the house, the spring rain continued unabated. On the contrary, there was a tendency for it to get worse and worse.

Xuan'er curled up on the bed that Xuan had just tidied up and fell asleep. Xu Han, on the other hand, looked at the scarlet sword in his hand with a deep gaze. He did not know what he was thinking.

Squeak.

At this moment, a soft sound came from the direction of the courtyard gate. At that moment, the wooden door of the courtyard was slowly pushed open.

"Xiao Han, your courtyard is not bad!" The visitor did not have the slightest bit of consciousness to barge into the mansion without permission. After entering the room, he shouted loudly.

Hearing the muffled voice, Xu Han did not pursue the offense and rudeness of the visitor. He stood up and looked at the man who walked into the room carelessly with two jars of wine. He smiled and said, "Why is Big Brother Chu free to come here?"

Chu Chouli stepped into the room and left a row of dirty footprints on the floor cleaned clean by Xu Han. However, he strode towards Xu Han as if he hadn't noticed. He placed the two jars of wine in his hand in front of Xu Han with a thud.

"Come, drink." The middle-aged man said loudly.

After saying that, he skillfully pulled off the seal on the wine jar and handed one of the jars to Xu Han.

Xu Han took the half-human-tall wine jar and continued to look at the man with a smile. "Drinking is fine, but Big Brother Chu needs to tell me first, what is the point of coming here?" He asked.

Hearing this, Chu Chouli, who had picked up the wine jar and was about to drink happily, immediately revealed an expression of displeasure. He pouted, "Xiao Han, how can you learn from those sour scholars? If you want to ask me about anything, I, Chu Chouli, will drink whoever I want. It is only natural that I, the Heavenly Prince, will not be able to control it."

However, these words obviously couldn't dispel Xu Han's doubts. The youth still held the wine jar and looked at him with a smile.

Knowing that he couldn't get away with it, the middle-aged man blushed. Then he whispered, "The Tian Ce Mansion is not comfortable. I see that there is a side room next to your courtyard. I'll pack up and stay here. This wine is considered room money!"

Xu Han naturally understood what Chu Chouli meant. He narrowed his eyes and looked at this seemingly harmless man. He asked in a deep voice, "There is a saying that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. I am a clay Bodhisattva who can't protect myself now. Big Brother Chu doesn't want to stay away from me, instead, he keeps moving towards me. Isn't it a little strange?"

"What kind of gentleman doesn't stand under the wall? I don't understand the rules of these corrupt people."

"I only know the rules of my Thieving Sacred Sect."

"Buy it and leave. Luozi has no regrets."

"Someone Chu has placed a bet and wants to move forward one-mindedly."

"I hit the south wall without turning around."
