The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 1350 - 1341: Change of Attitude

Sitting on the ground, Jiang Junhua’s eyes were vacant, and his body was trembling. He felt as if he had just skirted the edge of death. Smelling the nauseating stench on himself, anger burned fiercely in his heart. Ye Chenfeng actually made him soil himself in front of Shui Menghan, the girl he liked? This made him wish he could find a hole to crawl into straight away.

Shui Ziyan and Shui Menghan both breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Ye Chenfeng hadn’t really pierced Jiang Junhua’s throat. After all, Jiang Junhua was still the grandson of the Great Elder of the Shuis. If he had truly died at Ye Chenfeng’s hands, this matter would definitely have escalated.

Ye Chenfeng, who was leisurely fanning himself, walked up to Shui Ziyan and Shui Menghan. He looked at Shui Menghan with an icy gaze, causing her to instinctively step back. Although Shui Menghan possessed the peak strength of the Second Heavenly Layer of the Ocean Gathering Realm, even she wasn’t confident in easily defeating Jiang Junhua, so a trace of fear instinctively emerged in her heart.

Shui Ziyan quickly stepped forward and said, "Brother, why don’t you go take a seat at my place for a while?"

Shui Ziyan pointed to a small and exquisite wooden house. That was the temporary residence in the Northern Desolate Wasteland for Shui Ziyan and Shui Menghan. The others in the Shuis usually had to share a place with five or six people.

Ye Chenfeng still had a bit of goodwill toward Shui Ziyan. He looked at Shui Menghan and said, "On account of your sister, I’ll overlook it this time. I’ll just treat you as a kid who misspoke. But if it happens again, I’m afraid even your sister’s goodwill won’t save you."

Ye Chenfeng, with a Black Xuan Sword on his back and a folding fan in hand, swaggered towards the wooden house where Shui Ziyan and Shui Menghan were staying.

After Ye Chenfeng entered the wooden house, tears of grievance brimmed in Shui Menghan’s eyes as she looked at the soiled Jiang Junhua and the faint smell of stench in the air. This completely sparked her temper. She shouted at Jiang Junhua, "You really disgraced the Shuis, getting scared to such a pathetic state."

Shui Ziyan looked at the other three young members of the Shuis not far away and said, "You guys help Jiang Junhua down."

After those three young men from the Shuis helped Jiang Junhua leave, only Shui Ziyan and Shui Menghan were left. Shui Menghan clung to Shui Ziyan’s arm and said, "Sister, you’ve never scolded me since we were kids! But today you turned against me for an outsider. I really can’t see what makes him worthy of you?"

Shui Ziyan, who doted on her sister, gently patted Shui Menghan’s head and said, "Menghan, didn’t I meet a very young Artifact Refiner in Tianyao City? He crafted fifty storage rings in just one day."

Back then, Ye Chenfeng had actually crafted a hundred storage rings, but he only brought fifty of them to Shui Ziyan’s Ziyun Auction House for auction, so Shui Ziyan didn’t know that Ye Chenfeng had crafted a hundred rings in just one day.

Shui Menghan had been interested in Artifact Refining since she was a child, but her talent was too limited to pass the Refining Sect’s assessment and join to learn Artifact Refining. Still, she never gave up on researching it.

Recently, Shui Menghan learned about Ye Chenfeng from her sister Shui Ziyan and clearly understood that Ye Chenfeng was very young, not even a refiner within the Refining Sect, yet he had crafted fifty storage rings in one day—a feat when the entire Refining Sect only managed a hundred rings a year.

So ever since learning about Ye Chenfeng from her sister, Shui Menghan had been keen on meeting him, even idolizing him in her heart.

Shui Menghan wiped away the tears brimming in her eyes and hurriedly asked, "Sister, did you find the idol I admire?"

Shui Ziyan lightly tapped Shui Menghan’s head with a smile and said, "Menghan, haven’t you just seen him?"

"Ah!"

Hearing this, Shui Menghan let out a startled scream and said, "Sister, you mean he’s that young Artifact Refiner?"

Seeing Shui Ziyan nod without hesitation, Shui Menghan immediately put on a forlorn face, "Sister, why didn’t you tell me earlier? No wonder he could instantly defeat Jiang Junhua. My idol could never be an ordinary person."

Upon realizing Ye Chenfeng was indeed the young Artifact Refiner she had longed for, Shui Menghan’s attitude underwent a dramatic shift. Shui Ziyan, seeing her sister’s demeanor, shook her head helplessly and said, "Did you have time to let me explain earlier?"

"Sister, what should I do? What should I do?" Shui Menghan said earnestly, "I just scolded him. Do you think he’ll have a bad impression of me? Crafting fifty storage rings in one day is practically a miracle in the refiner world. No, I must immediately apologize to my idol."

Shui Ziyan led Shui Menghan into the wooden house where Ye Chenfeng was staying. Ye Chenfeng was sitting on a chair inside, eyes closed, lightly fanning himself. When he sensed someone entering, he slowly opened his eyes, expecting Shui Menghan to cause trouble again. He coldly said, "Didn’t you hear what I said to you earlier?"

Unexpectedly, Shui Menghan just looked at Ye Chenfeng pitiably, bit her moist lips, and said, "Brother-in-law, I’m sorry. It was all my fault. Please don’t bother with Menghan."

"Hmm?"

Wasn’t this the same hot-tempered girl from earlier? Ye Chenfeng looked at Shui Ziyan in confusion, and Shui Ziyan took her time explaining the situation to Ye Chenfeng, finally bringing him relief. He said, "I hope you can keep my identity as an Artifact Refiner a secret."

"Brother-in-law, rest assured. Menghan will definitely listen to you and keep it a secret," Shui Menghan said, transformed into a polite and obedient girl. Even in front of her grandparents and father, she wasn’t this well-behaved!

Ye Chenfeng decided not to hold Shui Menghan’s previous behavior against her after her apology and idolizing expression. He said, "There’s no need to call me brother-in-law. Your sister and I are just friends."

"Yay! That’s great!"

Hearing that her idol and her sister were merely friends, Shui Menghan’s excitement made her cheeks flush slightly red. She immediately moved behind Ye Chenfeng, gently placing her soft hands on his shoulders, and said, "Can I call you Brother Ye? Let me massage your shoulders. It was all my fault earlier. Brother Ye, you can punish Menghan as you like."

Before Ye Chenfeng could refuse, Shui Menghan was already massaging his shoulders, which felt rather comfortable. He said, "I’ve already forgotten about it."

Hearing this, Shui Menghan became even more enthusiastic. She poured him a cup of tea, and after finishing, she resumed massaging his shoulders.

Ye Chenfeng took a slight sip from the teacup, while Shui Menghan, still massaging his shoulders, sweetly said, "Brother Ye, can you teach me the art of Artifact Refining?"

"Also, Brother Ye, since you’re not my sister’s man, can you be mine? Actually, I can be very gentle and massage your shoulders every day."

"Brother Ye, don’t you agree?"

"Cough! Cough! Cough!"

"Pfft!" went the sound.

Accompanied by a fit of vigorous coughing, the tea Ye Chenfeng was sipping sprayed out. He had just been pleased with Shui Menghan’s attitude shift, but wasn’t her change a bit too excessive?
