âKid, your attempts to create discord are too obvious,â Shangguan Ze said. âAm I even anything to her? No, Iâm not even worthy to be dust. Youâre actually flattering me.â
âHeh, I wonât stoop to banter with you. Get him and tie him to the outside pillar!â Ye Shaoxian commanded loudly.
The crowd surged toward Shangguan Ze.
âF*ckyeah! You want to fight, letâs fight, whatâs the point of insulting people?â Shangguan Ze said angrily.
Shangguan Ze watched the mob rushing toward him, raised his hand, and said, âWait a minute! If weâre going to fight, whoâs going to pay for any damages here?â
âShut up! Grab him and gag him!â Ye Shaoxian yelled as his face darkened. He put on his boxing gloves and charged at Shangguan Ze.
Shangguan Ze squinted his eyes and said, âIf I donât need to pay, Iâll just have to play along!â
With that, Shangguan Ze too darted toward Ye Shaoxian, ready for an attack.
Ten minutes later, everyone in the boxing gym was down. Ye Shaoxian, clutching his chest, glared at Shangguan Ze, bloodied and beaten. Shangguan Ze, however, came out unscathed, not even touched by the others, and was now holding a floral shirt in his hand. It was Ye Shaoxianâs shirt, which he had stripped off.
Shangguan Ze looked at the floral shirt in his hand. His lips curled into a smirk, âCalling me a poor bugger? Well, you got it right. I not only despise the rich, but Iâm also petty. Just wait, the next time I, the great Shangguan Ze, see you, Iâll rob you. Iâll tear this floral shirt into pieces since I didnât have one.â
After saying that, Shangguan Ze tore Ye Shaoxianâs shirt into strips in front of everyone, then with narrowed eyes, he looked at Ye Shaoxianâs pants and shoes. Shangguan Ze moved closer with a sneaky laugh.
âYou pervert, what are you going to do to me?â Ye Shaoxian said as he protected his belt with his hands, warily watching Shangguan Ze.
Shangguan Ze touched Ye Shaoxianâs chin, took off the loafers from his feet, and looked disgusted. Shangguan Ze said, âFancy boy, I despise you!â
Shangguan Ze threw the loafers back at Ye Shaoxianâs face and left in style.
Ye Shaoxian pounded the ground in anger. He cursed inwardly, âCrazy! Iâm in bad luck meeting two maniacs! No, thereâs another one, making it three maniacs!â
After completing the task Rong Qi had entrusted him with, Shangguan Ze sent her a message.
Rong Qi also ended several games of chess with Ling Mozi. She leaned back in her chair and asked, âWhat time is it?â
Ling Mozi glanced at the wall clock and replied, âItâs twelve oâclock.â
âDarn it! Itâs twelve already! I have to go back,â Rong Qi said.
âWasnât it just eleven-thirty a moment ago? How did it become twelve oâclock so soon?â Rong Qi pondered. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhatâs wrong?â Ling Mozi looked at Rong Qi in confusion.
Rong Qi frowned, âNothing much, itâs just that the person at home is very controlling of me and not letting me go out. I sneaked out today. I have to go back now, same old rule, call me if thereâs anything.â
After that, Rong Qi stood up and walked out.
Ling Mozi shook his head with a sigh.
However, Rong Qi didnât notice that just as she left the side path, someone else saw her. That person was the mother of the man who had fallen ill in the mall the day before, Madam Su.
Madam Su anxiously watched Rong Qi walk away and wanted to follow but remembered that her appointment with Ling Mozi was due.
âHi, could you tell me if that young lady is also a patron of Cloudsurf Temple?â Madam Su asked.
The monk looked in the direction Madam Su was pointing and said, âMadam Su, that lady is indeed one of our templeâs destined patrons, favored by our abbot.â
Madam Suâs eyes lit up and asked, âDo you know who she is?â
Upon hearing that, the monk shook his head and said, âMadam Su, if itâs meant to be, youâll meet again. Destiny has its own plans, and sometimes thereâs no need to pursue it deliberately.â
Madam Suâs eyes showed a hint of disappointment. When she returned to the country, she visited Cloudsurf Temple to have Ling Mozi divine for her son, Ye Rong. Ling Mozi had told her that Ye Rong would meet a benefactor and might be saved.
Since the separation at the mall, Madam Su was convinced that the young woman was Ye Rongâs savior.. So she had to find her!
