Chapter 269
Yun Sheng watched as the master and disciple left, with a complex look in his eyes.
He let out a soft sigh, then turned and walked to the backyard.
"Master."
Seeing this, several maids bowed down.
"Where is my daughter?" Yun Sheng asked.
"The young miss is inside," a maid replied.
Yun Sheng nodded, then pushed open the door and entered the room.
Inside the room sat a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old. Although she was young, she had developed well, with an exquisite and charming face. In a few more years she would likely become a great beauty who could bring down nations.
However, her eyes were red and swollen, and she didn't say a word.
"Mengtian, I'm surprised that the boy and his master you told me about really came," said Yun Sheng with a sigh as he looked at his daughter.
Hearing this, Yun Mengtian's body trembled. She looked sharply at Yun Sheng and hurriedly asked, "How could he really have come? Didn't I specifically ask Auntie to try to stop him? How could he have really come?"
As she spoke, Yun Mengtian's pretty face turned deathly pale, and she said in a panic, "What should we do, Father? Will he get dragged into this?"
For a time, Yun Mengtian became more and more anxious, almost crying from anxiety.
"I really shouldn't have provoked him back then. I knew that I was already mired deeply in this quagmire and that we couldn't be together, yet I still provoked him. I really shouldn't have..."
Seeing her state, Yun Sheng felt awful. He hurried to explain, "It's my fault for not being able to protect you. But don't worry, I've already driven them out of here."
"That's good, that's good..."
Hearing this, Yun Mengtian finally calmed down a bit.
Yun Sheng sighed feelingly and said, "But I could see that the master and disciple were sincere. With ordinary human bodies, they traveled thousands of miles from Pingjiang City to get here, and offered a betrothal gift of 500,000 gold coins. Such devotion..."
"But ultimately, we are fated to be apart!"
He lowered his head, full of remorse.
"Father, it's okay, I've accepted my fate," said Yun Mengtian dispiritedly. "But I'm really afraid he'll do something foolish."
"Don't worry, I've made it clear to them the gravity of the situation and how formidable the Ye Family is. They shouldn't do anything so suicidal!" Yun Sheng gently reassured her.
The group laughed awkwardly.
Yi Feng looked at the group. Other than chalking it up to coincidence, he didn't know what else to say. He then got back to the main topic, "My friends, now I'd like to ask for your help with something."
"Please go ahead, sir."
The group grew excited.
Since Yi Feng was asking them for help, it meant he still thought about them!
Such back and forth would make them grow closer over time. Maybe one day when Yi Feng was happy, he might reward them with a little something. That would be enough to make them happy for life.
"I'm planning to kidnap a bride," said Yi Feng in a low voice.
"Kidnap a bride?"
The group immediately cried out in surprise.
"Shh!"
"Not so loud."
Yi Feng quickly made a silencing gesture.
The group quickly quieted down and lowered their voices to match Yi Feng's.
Yi Feng then softly explained the whole story to them, and told them of his plan to kidnap the bride tomorrow. This left Yang Tianhua and the others very moved.
This boss... he really did have quite the adventurous spirit!
He was basically asking them to cosplay and play extras!
But of course they didn't dare point this out to Yi Feng. They could only go along with it, and solemnly promised Yi Feng their help.
"It's great to have fans like you guys."
Yi Feng was touched inside.
"It's our duty, it's our duty!"
The group humbly responded. Being able to receive this acknowledgement from Yi Feng made them incredibly excited.
"But I have to say, you guys should still think it through clearly. This matter has its fair share of danger," Yi Feng continued. "I heard that Ye Family has a Martial Spirit powerhouse. That level of cultivation is probably terrifying!"
