"Oh, it's Young Master Long, why are you calling me suddenly? What's up?" Young Master Xu laughed over the phone. From his tone, it was clear that he had a good relationship with Liao Longfei.
Liao Longfei's expression instantly turned extremely sinister, and he said gloomily, "There's an idiot named Ye Qiu who dared to provoke me. Now I've found out he's gone to the Capital City. I'm going there to deal with him and want you to help me."
"Ye Qiu, who is that? How dare he provoke even you?" Young Master Xu asked with a frown, then continued unconcernedly, "Don't worry, since you've come to me, I'll help you for sure. It's just an ordinary person; it's easy to deal with."
"Great, thank you so much, Young Master Xu!" Liao Longfei said excitedly.
After hanging up the phone, his smile turned even more sinister.
And it carried a hint of confidence.
As long as Young Master Xu gets involved, Ye Qiu is done for.
Young Master Xu is one of the top young masters in the Capital City, not someone whom just anyone can provoke.
"Ye Qiu, just you wait to die!" Liao Longfei muttered hatefully.
...
Capital City.
Ye Qiu and Bai Lan got off the plane and went directly to the Bai Family.
Because Bai Lan had informed them in advance, the Bai Family warmly welcomed their arrival.
Many of the older members of the Bai Family were waiting in advance.
White Rose and Bai Hao were also there.
Seeing Ye Qiu, White Rose got extremely excited and rushed over to grab his arm, laughing, "Hehe, brother-in-law, you really kept your word and came over. Now I won't tell my sister about you meeting little girls outside."
"Um..." Ye Qiu was a bit helpless; when did he ever go looking for little girls?
Seeing White Rose's cunning eyes, he couldn't help but smile indulgently.
Bai Lan, knowing her sister was just talking nonsense, smiled faintly and gave a playful glare.
"Uh... brother-in-law... Hi." Bai Hao also came over.
However, the moment he spoke, he seemed awkward, making Ye Qiu a bit amused.
But thinking about Bai Hao's situation, Ye Qiu didn't say much.
Bai Hao is Bai Lan's brother, logically he should call Ye Qiu brother-in-law, but this guy had offended Ye Qiu before and was severely punished by Ye Qiu.
Of course, the key issue is that Ye Qiu is just too strong, ridiculously terrifying. Calling Ye Qiu brother-in-law would imply that Ye Qiu is his younger brother. Taking advantage of such a formidable God seemed not quite right...
It's better to follow White Rose and call him brother-in-law.
Seeing Bai Hao's mannerism, both Bai Lan and White Rose couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.
"Alright, don't be so tense." Ye Qiu gently patted Bai Hao's shoulder.
At that moment, Bai Hao was almost scared out of his wits and nearly collapsed onto the ground.
Just then, Bai Lan's parents and other elders of the Bai Family also came over.
"Hello, Uncle, Auntie." Ye Qiu smiled politely.
"Good, good, everyone is doing well."
"Ye Qiu, you are indeed getting more and more impressive. Our Lan following you is surely a blessing accumulated over many lifetimes."
Bai Lan's parents smiled broadly, flattering Ye Qiu.
The other elders also followed with compliments, thinking of Ye Qiu's past deeds, their eyes showed admiration, though with a hint of fear.
A terrifying Demon King like Ye Qiu—if you can't befriend him, you absolutely mustn't offend him.
When speaking, one must be careful!
Thus, an unusual scene unfolded.
The elders faced the juniors, one by one, like mice seeing a cat, all constrained and cautious...
"Sister, brother-in-law!" Sensing the awkward atmosphere, White Rose had no choice but to shake Ye Qiu's arm and cheerily say, "We haven't seen each other for a long time; I miss you guys a lot. How about we go shopping?"
"Sure." Ye Qiu readily agreed.
Not that he was particularly fond of shopping, but there was nothing much to talk about with those old folks in the Bai Family.
Might as well take this little Elf, White Rose, out for some fun.
Then, Ye Qiu, Bai Lan, and White Rose headed to a nearby commercial pedestrian street.
They had just started shopping when White Rose suddenly stopped and waved at a distant couple, shouting, "Hey, Qi Qiao'Er, hey, hey, I'm here!"
Ye Qiu looked up and saw a young girl whom White Rose was greeting. She was quite pretty, but her clothes were very flashy, and her makeup was quite heavy, making her look like a typical gold digger.
Beside Qi Qiao'Er was a young man, also dressed neatly and entirely in designer brands, his eyes revealing a trace of arrogance, clearly indicating he was from a wealthy family.
"Oh! It's Rose, why are you here!"
Upon seeing White Rose, Qi Qiao'Er smiled, holding the young man's arm as she excitedly walked over.
White Rose also clung to Ye Qiu's arm, joyfully saying, "This is Ye Qiu, the one I often mention, my brother-in-law. He came today, so of course I had to come out and have a good time!"
"Oh, hello, brother-in-law." Qi Qiao'Er glanced at Ye Qiu and slightly evaluated him. Seeing his plain attire and lack of a wealthy appearance, she lost interest.
Then, she shook the arm of the young man beside her and smiled at White Rose, "Come on, Rose, let me introduce you. His name is Xue Liang; his family has a strong background. If you and your sister and brother-in-law ever run into trouble, you can turn to him. Xue Liang is more than willing to help."
"Xue Liang, isn't that right?" Qi Qiao'Er tightened her grip on Xue Liang, looking up at his face and urging him.
"Of course, no problem!" Xue Liang nodded, the arrogance in his eyes even more pronounced. "Since you're all friends of Qiao'Er, naturally you're friends of mine as well. Just like Qiao'Er said, if you have any issues, feel free to come to me.
I'm not boasting, but there's almost nothing in this Capital City that can stump me, Xue Liang."
"In that case, thank you!" White Rose replied, then brought up other topics to chat with Qi Qiao'Er.
She was quite low-key. Although she would often talk about "calling a hundred or so little brothers to take turns beating you up," it was always just talk. She didn't even mention her family background while at school.
Otherwise, if Qi Qiao'Er and Xue Liang knew her identity, their attitude would definitely be different.
After chatting briefly, the group parted ways.
"Rose, you need to be a bit cautious when making friends." Watching Qi Qiao'Er walk away, Ye Qiu casually remarked, not having much fondness for gold diggers like Qi Qiao'Er.
However, White Rose just smiled and explained, "Brother-in-law, don't worry. Qiao'Er may be a bit materialistic and opportunistic, but she's not a bad person."
"Alright, just be careful yourself." Ye Qiu nodded slightly. He didn't want to interfere too much with White Rose's personal affairs.
The group continued shopping, laughing and chatting.
At this time, Ye Qiu was unaware that Liao Longfei had followed him to the Capital City!
