Chapter 254: Protagonist, let me touch you
In the large courtyard in front of the Main Hall, dust was flying, and broken bricks and tiles covered the ground.
Yun Jiujiu, dressed in a dark blue skirt, was panting like an ox. Her slightly curled golden hair, draped behind her, was also blown up by her current rage, scattering wildly behind her head.
On the other side, Feng Yu Die, dressed in a buttoned shirt, was in a sorry state. It was as if she had just come out of a kiln, covered head to toe in dust. Her clothes had a few small tears, and there were wood shavings and debris scattered everywhere around her.
“What happened?!”
Yun Yiyi, quickly leading Ye Anping, ran in from the courtyard gate. Upon seeing the messy scene in the courtyard, she immediately stopped, her face blank and completely unaware of what had occurred.
Ye Anping, following behind her, was the same. He could only tell that Feng Yu Die seemed to have been beaten out of the Main Hall by Yun Jiujiu, and there was a hole in the Main Hall’s wall shaped like her body.
Yun Jiujiu glanced at the two who had arrived, wiped her nose with her thumb, then picked up an iron bar from the ground and lunged straight at Feng Yu Die.
“You damn it!!!”
“Hey?! Jiujiu! Calm down! Hey—”
Boom—
Feng Yu Die dodged to the side, and the iron bar in Yun Jiujiu’s hand slid past her chest, smashing onto the floor. Immediately, bricks and stones flew everywhere, and even Yun Yiyi, standing at the door, was shaken and took a step to stabilize herself.
“Young Master Ye, quickly go stop her.”
Seeing Yun Jiujiu swing the iron bar towards Feng Yu Die again, Yun Yiyi hurriedly called out.
Ye Anping did not hesitate. He immediately flashed between Yun Jiujiu and Feng Yu Die. However, because his Storage Bag was with his Junior Sister, he had to pick up an iron bar from the ground to block for Feng Yu Die. But the force of the blow made his arm ache.
Seeing that Ye Anping had blocked her, Yun Yiyi also stepped forward, went behind Yun Jiujiu, reached into her waist from behind, and lifted her off the ground.
“Let go of me! I’m going to split this lying cheat!!!”
“What lying cheat?! Are you drunk?” Yun Yiyi asked, completely confused, and retorted loudly, “That’s Young Master Feng. Aren’t you planning to leave the Sword Sect with him and open a restaurant outside?”
“Open a fart!! I… cough cough—” Yun Jiujiu choked on her own spit, coughed a few times before finally managing to say, “Cough— She’s a woman!!”
?
Yun Yiyi blinked and involuntarily shifted her gaze to Feng Yu Die, who was now cowering behind Ye Anping. However, she didn’t feel too surprised.
She had felt that this “Feng Yu” had quite a few issues before, especially regarding gender. But Yun Jiujiu kept praising him, so she decided to mind her own business; it wasn’t a particularly big matter anyway.
Hearing Yun Jiujiu’s words, Ye Anping slowly turned his head to look behind him, his eyes questioning: Did you expose yourself?
Feng Yu Die clung to Ye Anping’s waist, poked her head out to look at Yun Jiujiu, and looked awkward. Noticing Ye Anping looking at her, she quickly replied with a guilty look: I… I don’t know either…
“… …”
Ye Anping felt a bit helpless. Why were so many unexpected things happening today?
Fortunately, he had actually anticipated Feng Yu Die being exposed long ago. In fact, her being able to hold out for so long with Yun Jiujiu had already exceeded his expectations.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Anping decided to salvage the situation and politely asked back:
“Second Miss Yun, how could Young Master Feng be a woman? Did you have a dream? You drank so much yesterday…”
“Dream my ass!! I’ve touched it three times!!” Yun Jiujiu shouted. “She doesn’t even have… if you don’t believe me, touch her yourself. It’s just a slit…”
Yun Yiyi, who was holding Yun Jiujiu, blushed upon hearing this, while Ye Anping was speechless.
He had wanted to find a way to smooth things over, but since Yun Jiujiu had discovered it through touch, there was no way to cover it up.
After thinking for a moment, he stepped aside and looked at Feng Yu Die, asking:
“Young Master Feng, please explain? What is going on? Why are you disguised as a man?”
“… …”
Didn’t you tell me to do this?
Feng Yu Die looked extremely awkward. She didn’t know how to explain and could only look pitifully at Ye Anping, hoping he would tell her how to explain with his eyes.
Ye Anping pursed his lips: Just ask her back, what’s wrong with me being a girl?
Oh…
Feng Yu Die nodded in understanding and retorted, “What’s wrong with me being a girl? I still accompanied you for drinks, sparred with you, and even came to your aid when you were in danger… You can’t hit me just because I’m a girl.”
“Pah!!” Yun Jiujiu spat, cursing, “Then why didn’t you say so earlier?! I even wrote you love letters!! I wore skirts to show you!! I…”
She seemed to have been enraged. She looked down at her skirt and reached out as if to tear it off.
Seeing her about to tear her clothes, Yun Yiyi quickly grabbed her hand and stopped her:
“Second Sister! That’s enough, no, no, no… We’re still outside.”
“Sniff—” Yun Jiujiu sniffled, suddenly feeling wronged, “I… Waaah— I trusted her so much, I even said I’d marry her, and she turned out to be a girl…”
“… …”
This was the first time Yun Yiyi had seen her usually hot-tempered Second Sister show such an expression. She understood that Yun Jiujiu was likely truly hurt and immediately comforted her:
“It’s… being a girl isn’t so bad, is it?”
?
Although Ye Anping knew Yun Yiyi was trying to comfort her, he was still taken aback to hear those words coming from her mouth.
Feng Yu Die quickly added:
“Yes… Yes! Being a girl isn’t so bad, right?”
“Bad my ass!!” Yun Jiujiu, with a snotty nose, turned her head and glared at Feng Yu Die again. “You can’t even have babies!!”
“Ah… How can you not have babies? The fairies can bring them, right?” Feng Yu Die blinked and answered softly.
“““……”””
A cold wind swept through the courtyard, and even the birdsong in the distance fell silent in that instant.
Yun Yiyi pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked, “Speaking of which, Second Sister, why did you touch her?”
“I just wanted to see if she was big or not, but who would have thought… sniff—”
“It’s okay, it’s okay…” Yun Yiyi quickly patted her head to comfort her, but at the same time, she felt a little fortunate. At least her Young Master Ye was only impotent, not lacking entirely. “Regardless, Miss Feng… she saved your life. Even if you can’t get married, being friends is good, isn’t it?”
“Yeah, yeah! Jiujiu… being friends is good too.”
“Miss Feng, zip it!” Yun Yiyi glared at her. “Second Sister, let’s go back to the room and calm down. Yun Xi was just kidnapped by Zhuang Yan, and the Elder will be here soon.”
“… Ah? Yun Xi was kidnapped? When?”
“Just now… Let’s talk inside.”
Yun Yiyi pursed her lips, then gave Ye Anping a look to take Feng Yu Die away from here. She then pulled Yun Jiujiu back into the Main Hall, which had several holes in it.
After watching the two leave, Ye Anping looked back at Feng Yu Die with a speechless expression:
“I’m going to deduct your payment.”
Hearing that her payment was to be deducted, Feng Yu Die became even more wronged and quickly said:
“Ah? This… This really isn’t my fault! How was I supposed to know she would come while I was sleeping… By the way, what is ‘que que’?”
?
Ye Anping froze for a moment, then his brow furrowed, and he grabbed her face:
“You’re still asking about this?”
“Ow— It hurts, it hurts… I was wrong, I was wrong… Just deduct less Spirit Stones from me, okay?”
“Sigh—” Ye Anping sighed helplessly, turned his head, and said, “Come on, I’ll tell you what you need to do next.”
“Oh…”
… …
