168. Spend The Rest Of Life With Him

Yue Youbai was about to lose it, but Yang Shuo was not.

In fact, Yang Shuo now felt incredibly happy. Why did he come here early in the morning? Of course, he was on a mission!

“Dear Xue,” he insisted on addressing Yue Youbai.

If Yue Youbai could kill people with his eyes, then Yang Shuo was probably torn into pieces now!

Unfortunately, his eyes couldn’t kill people!

Therefore, Yang Shuo said, “Dear Xue, can you go out with me and help me buy a birthday gift? You know that I know little about picking gifts. You’re a she-man. I bet you know much better than me, right?”

Yue Youbai was about to refuse but he hesitated, “Birthday gift?”

“Yes,” Yang Shuo seemed to be very honest. “It’s for an old man’s 90th birthday. But this old man is very strange. We didn’t plan to go. Actually, we can’t go because the old man likes to be quiet and did not like to celebrate his birthday at all. But I got the news two days ago that he agreed to throw a big birthday party. So I am going. But it is such a pain to choose a birthday gift for him.”

Yang Shuo sounded like he was really bothered by this problem.

“I bet it is enough that you are honest to give him your wishes. Why do you take it so seriously?”

Yang Shuo shook his head. “No! This old man is very important. Besides, there must be many people attending the birthday banquet today! If my gift can’t stand out, it would be embarrassing!”

Yue Youbai fell silent and didn’t say anything.

Yang Shuo walked over and grabbed his arm shyly, “Dear Xue, please help me.”

Yue Youbai took out his arm coldly. “I’m really sorry. I’m afraid I can’t help!”

“Why not?” Yang Shuo looked disappointed.

“I don’t know that old man. How do I know what he likes? If he doesn’t like the gift, it would be my fault.” Yue Youbai said.

“But none of us know what that old man likes! I am afraid that his disciples might not know what he likes!”

“Who is that old man?” Yue Youbai was confused. “Does he have a lot of disciples? So there are many people going today?”

In fact, Yue Youbai had already known who Yang Shuo was talking about and that he  only had four disciples.

However, Yue Youbai had to pretend that he knew nothing at all, and act that he was curious. Besides, a great idea just came across his mind.

“He doesn’t have many disciples,” Yang Shuo said honestly. “Only four. He doesn’t spend much time with four disciples. However, the old man is an expert in literature and he taught many people. Therefore, many officials and nobles will bring their own juniors today to celebrate his birthday.”

“Eh?” Yue Youbai acted surprised. “So, is he a big shot?”

“Yes, he’s a big shot!” Yang Shuo nodded with certainty. “And…”

Yang Shuo seemed to have thought of something and said no more.

Yue Youbai rolled his eyes at Yang Shuo. “And what? It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to say it.”

Yang Shuo hesitated for a moment before suddenly holding Yue Youbai’s hands seriously.

Yue Youbai was so startled that he immediately wanted to shake Yang Shuo’s hands off, but Yang Shuo looked at him affectionately. “Dear Xue, it’s not that I don’t want to say it, but this matter is very important. Besides, I am not sure if it is true. So I am not sure if I should tell you. But you are my dear Xue. I am serious about our relationship and I want to spend the rest of my life with you! So, this is just between you and me. I hear that the old man might choose a new disciple among the youngsters!”

Yang Shuo looked so serious that Yue Youbai could not keep his eyes off him.

Yue Youbai was so chocked by Yang Shuo’s seriousness.

To spend the rest life with him?

Many admirers expressed their love to Yue Youbai. Those admirers acted as noble gentlemen and never did anything appropriate. They treated him with respect and manners.

No one dared to get close to him, nor be so clingy to him. None of them had ever touched him.

However, Yang Shuo had done everything. He even kissed him…

Now, he was saying that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with him!

Yue Youbai thought that he should be disdainful, or he should be angry!

However, he was not sure when he saw into Yang Shuo’s eyes.

Even though it was only for an instant, Yue Youbai had a bad feeling. He came back to reality and ignored what Yang Shuo said. He turned around and asked, “Taking in disciples? Are you interested?”

“Yes,” Yang Shuo said seriously. “Of course I want to become his disciple. As a man, I have my own ambition.” He said with a cocky expression. “If I can be his disciple, I can make a lot of money and even achieve something in politics. Such a great honor! At that time, everyone must be envious of me! Among so many talented people, Xuantian The Elderly chooses me over other. Imagine. How would the others envy me! I love this kind of feeling!”

The corner of Yue Youbai’s mouth twitched. What a dumbass!

Yang Shuo was still enjoying his imagination, holding Yue Youbai’s hand, “At that time, Dear Xue, if we get married, you will feel honored too!”

As Yue Youbai was about to get rid of Yang Shuo’s hands, he paused when he heard “get married”, leaving Yang Shuo a chance to hold his hand and put his hand on his chest.

“Dear Xue, thinking that we will get married, my heart is melted.”

The corner of Yue Youbai‘s mouth twitched. He pulled his hand away. “Boss Yang, I don’t deserve you.”

“Dear Xue!” Yang Shuo disagreed. “How can you say that?! You have to know that true love is priceless. Don’t mind our social status again. As long as you love me and I love you, that’s enough!”

Yue Youbai pursed his lips.

Yang Shuo said softly, “I know, you have a sense of inferiority. But it doesn’t matter. I can change you.”

What?! Sense of inferiority?! Yue Youbai was so angry that he really wished that he could smash the chair onto Yang Shuos’ head.

Yang Shuo patted his head. “Oh no! I almost forgot something important! Dear Xue, you must go help me pick a gift!”

Yue Youbai pursed her lips and said, “I can’t go to the birthday party anyway. Why should I help you choose a gift?”

“Did I say that you can’t go? “Yang Shuo was surprised. “I can go. As long as I say you’re my plus-one, of course you can go!”

Yue Youbai pressed unhappily, “Your plus-one?!”

“Uh…” Yang Shuo patted his head and argued, “It’s just an explanation. I know that you haven’t fallen in love with me yet. I won’t force you now. Don’t worry! I just want to spend more time with you and see where we can go. Believe me!”

“There is nowhere to go between us!” Yue Youbai mumbled, but with a softer tone. As soon as Yang Shuo saw that there was a hope, he hurriedly urged him again. In the end, Yue Youbai hesitated for a while and went to change clothes.

On the other side, Han Tingxuan had already received a message from Yang Shuo. The corner of his mouth slightly curved.

Tian Yusu happened to see it. He asked, “What’s wrong?”

Han Tingxuan smiled. “Nothing.”

Tian Yusu didn’t believe it at all.

At this moment, Han Tingxuan brought up another topic. “Is there any progress in Liu Yong’s case?”

Tian Yusu looked at Han Tingxuan and said softly, “People who are spying on Tian Chuanyun said that two of Tian Chuanyun’s subordinates made a move before.”

“Oh?” Han Tingxuan’s eyes flashed. “Is it really him?”

“You already suspected him?” Tian Yusu looked at Han Tingxuan.

“There aren’t many enemies. It’s an easy guess, isn’t it?” Han Tingxuan said.

Tian Yusu pursed his lips slightly and said lightly, “Indeed. The Sun family is currently hiding at home. It is impossible for them to make a trouble at such a time.”

Han Tingxuan smiled. “Since we make sure that Tian Chuanyun is behind the plot, it is much easier. I have a plan. Although I can’t promise it is going to get rid of Tian Chuanyun, it will destroy his reputation for sure at least.”

Tian Yusu’s eyes lit up when he heard this. “Tell me more.”

Han Tingxuan explained his plan.

Moments later, Tian Yusu narrowed his eyes and softly said, “You are so dirty.”

Han Tingxuan sneered. “As long as I get what I want.”

Tian Yusu nodded. “Alright. I’ll send them to get on with it. But you are not going to stay out of it. You are going down with me. Don’t you trick me ever!”

Han Tingxuan looked at Tian Yusu innocently. “Uncle, you are overthinking. How could I trick you? I am so kind-hearted.”

Kind-hearted? Tian Yusu snorted.

At this time, Zhou Yueqing walked out of a shop.

Han Tingxuan walked over. “You did not pick a decent gift?”

Zhou Yueqing nodded.

Han Tingxuan smiled. “Then let’s continue shopping.”

At this time, Han bought food and came over. “Han Tingxuan, which one do you prefer?”

Han Tingxuan picked one. “Thank you.”

Han smiled.

Tian Yusu: “…” He was jealous!

Han glanced at Tian Yusu and handed one over. “Would you like some?”

After Han Tingxuan? Tian Yusu was really unhappy. He pouted. “Yes.”

Han was confused. “You don’t have to take some if you don’t like any.”

Tian Yusu, “…”

Han Tingxuan almost laughed.

Zhou Yueqing knew who Tian Yusu was. But he pretended that he heard nothing. But he was curious why Prince Xian treated Han Tingxuan’s brother so differently.

Perhaps he saw it wrong.
