Chapter 73

I had thought Xiao Liang and Shen Yuzhe would just exchange a few words and that would be the end of it, but I didn't expect the two of them to actually argue for over two hours...

Yes, you heard that right, two whole hours.

On one side, Xiao Liang went on and on, using Shen Yuzhe's "improper attitude" as her main talking point to point out his mistakes.

On the other side, Shen Yuzhe persisted in reciting various classical poems to her, advising her not to get angry, but to have a broad mind and a calm, Buddhist heart.

"Do you know why my grandmother lived until 99 before passing away?"

Shen Yuzhe asked meaningfully.

Xiao Liang put her hands on her hips and rolled her eyes at him. "How would I know!"

"Because my grandmother didn't like meddling in other people's business. I sincerely like Jiang Wei, so you shouldn't obstruct me."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Liang became even more indignant. "Then do you know why my third uncle passed away early at just forty-five years old?"

"Well, forty-five doesn't really count as an early death," Shen Yuzhe flatly corrected her while adjusting his glasses.

When he gets back from the competition, he'll have to buy a huge bag of snacks to reward this "Female Knight" properly.

The stability of his little "corner," whether it would be dug up and taken away by someone wielding a hoe, now depended entirely on this quick-tongued Female Knight...

"So what happened after that? How did they resolve it in the end?"

"Well, eventually they both got tired of arguing. Shen said he had recited almost every classical poem he knew, so he went back to look up some more material to come back and continue the fight."

Yi Ming: "......"

Truly a persevering gentleman, he had to admire that quality...

"After Shen left, I took Xiao Liang away too. We went to a phone repair shop, and I had the owner take a look at my phone. He said there wasn't a major issue, fiddled with it for a bit, and then it turned on. So - the first thing I did was call you..."

"Young Master Yi, don't be angry, okay?" Jiang Wei's voice was uncharacteristically soft and placating.

Yi Ming smiled contentedly, his voice rising in a clear, pleasant tone. "Give me a kiss, and I won't be angry."

Jiang Wei: "......"

So he still had the energy to tease her - it seemed like his anger had completely dissipated...
