"Customer, do you want to eat? Please come in. The food in the restaurant today is extremely delicious…" A burly man kept pulling passersby and repeating this sentence... After what happened before, Zhang Biao seemed to have changed into a different person. Not only did he stop gambling, but he also became even more aggressive in attracting customers at the entrance of the small restaurant. However... The effect didn't seem to be too good. At this moment, there were surprisingly few people in the store. There were only five or six people coming and going.
In a corner of the small restaurant, a young man was lazily half-lying on a chair. He narrowed his eyes and sized up the busy street as he muttered,"Why are there so few people today? It shouldn't be... Could it be…Because of Old Zhang? Looks like I have to let Daly give it a try…"
"Test your head…" He didn't know when, but the girl was already standing behind Ye Qiu, looking at him fiercely.
"Hehe, actually, actually, I want to give it a try. Oh... Big Sister Daly, what are you doing?" Looking at the fair little hand on his waist, Ye Qiu felt helpless.
The young girl looked at the pained young man with great satisfaction." Hehe, it's just that my hands can't sit still…"
"Big Sister Daly, be careful not to get married in the future!
"It's better if you can't get married. I don't expect to get married…The girl looked at Ye Qiu with a confused expression and smiled indifferently.
"Not getting married…What are you planning to do in the future?"
"In the future, who knows what will happen in the future? Oh right, what about Xiao Ye?”，Then, he looked at Ye Qiu with a puzzled expression.
Looking at the girl with a puzzled expression, a peerless figure appeared in Ye Qiu's mind…Immediately, he sighed helplessly and said in an experienced manner,"Marry a wife, have children…"
Zhang Biao quickly walked over from the door and could not help but smile bitterly when he saw the two of them." You two still have the time to chat here? Trouble is coming…" That old man is here again."
Ye Qiu looked at the burly man strangely and said calmly,"That old man. Don't you come here often? Look at how flustered you are…"
Ever since the last time, the Eighth Elder of the Shen family had really come to find them. However, for some reason, not only did he not make things difficult for them, but he was also unusually polite and close to Ye Qiu.
"It's different…It was different this time! He brought someone with him."
"It's just an extra pair of chopsticks... How nice it would be to have someone to eat with!
Zhang Biao slapped his forehead and said helplessly,""It is really different this time. The person in front of that old man is definitely not simple. Looking at the respect on the old man's face, he is definitely not an ordinary person…
Hearing this, Ye Qiu frowned,"It can't be because of that family competition again, right? It seems that this old man still has evil intentions…" Forget it, I'll go take a look first... Then, Ye Qiu slowly walked out of the door.
At this moment, there were two figures standing at the entrance of the small restaurant. One was an old man and the other was a handsome young man.
"Eighth Uncle, this is the place you're talking about?”The handsome man glanced at the small restaurant indifferently and asked a hunchbacked old man behind him,
"Yes, Young Clan Leader. That young man called Ye Qiu is a waiter in this tavern. However, I've talked to him before. That kid is like a stone in a latrine pit…"
"Waiter, haha, interesting. If that little brother was really like what Eighth Uncle said, they could talk about it…
A hint of hesitation flashed in the old man's eyes. He slowly said,"I'm afraid there's not much hope…"
"It's not that there's not much hope. There's no hope." A young man dressed as a waiter at the door smiled at the old man.
"Sigh... "You brat, this is our young clan leader. You have to be more polite." The old man sighed helplessly and muttered a few words to the young man.
The young man smiled as he turned to Ye Qiu and said softly,"Little Brother Ye, I am Shen Yi. There is no clan leader here. Can you go in and talk…
"Ke ke, customer, please come in…"
On a table in a corner of the small restaurant.
The old man looked at Ye Qiu bitterly."Brat, you really don't intend to help the Shen family?”
"Old Shen, how many times have I told you? Don't drag me into the complicated matters of the family. I'm not in the mood. Look, I'm busy all day.”Ye Qiu was also helpless.
"I've already suppressed that matter for you. Are you really not going to consider it?”
Ye Qiu naturally knew what he was referring to. However, since he had already done it, there was nothing to be afraid of. Although he knew that the Shen family was one of the three great families in Beimang, so what? However, the old man did not use this to threaten him, which made him have a good impression of him.
"Old Shen, it's better if you don't say anymore."
"Brat, if you help my Shen clan this time around, you can choose any of the Shen clan's Qi Methods and Combat Skills…" The old man was also extremely helpless against the stubborn Ye Qiu.
He shook his head slightly. Cultivation techniques and battle skills were not very tempting to Ye Qiu. Ye Qiu was still very satisfied with the cultivation technique he had learned. As for battle skills, he did not need them.
"Old man, if you want to eat, I'll serve the dishes for you…Otherwise, I'll go get busy."
Shen Yi smiled as he listened to the conversation between the two. When Ye Qiu was about to leave, he slowly said,"Little Brother Ye, can you listen to a story before leaving?"
Ye Qiu also had a good impression of Shen Yi. Although Shen Yi was the young clan leader of the Shen clan, he did not have the arrogance of a superior. He did not interrupt the Eighth Elder and Ye Qiu when they were talking. Just a little bit of it was to Ye Qiu's liking. Then, he sat back on his chair. He smiled slightly." Young Clan Leader, please speak!”
"Ke ke, there is no young clan head here. If you are willing, you can just call me brother Chen. The word young clan head is too unfamiliar. I wonder if little brother has heard of the young clan head of the Liu clan, Liu Yuan."
"I have never heard of him. I wonder what relationship does this person have with the story that Brother Chen wants to tell?"
Shen Yi sighed and softly said,"The three great clans of Beimang appear to be calm and peaceful. However, in reality, they have fought countless times in private. In the past, the three great clans did not have a great disparity in strength. However, five years ago, my father disappeared. The Zhao and Liu families continued to suppress us. In a short five years, my Shen family's business shrank by 70%. In the entire Southern City, almost all the businesses fell into the hands of the Zhao and Liu families. Of course, this is secondary. The main reason is because of a marriage between my younger sister and the young master of the Liu family, Liu Yuan…"
"The marriage you mentioned should have something to do with the family competition, right?”Ye Qiu couldn't help but interject,
"That's right. Over ten years ago, the relationship between the Shen clan and the Liu clan was quite good. At that time, the two clan heads had already decided on this marriage. Unexpectedly, it would end up like this today after over ten years. Moreover, Liu Yuan was a scum. Not only was he dissolute by nature, he was also vicious and merciless. Countless young ladies did not even survive three days in his hands…If the Shen family loses in the Family Competition a month later, Younger Sister will have to marry over…" When he said this, Shen Yi's face also darkened.
Ye Qiu also sighed,"So the City Lord's Estate doesn't care?"”
"City Lord Manor. Hmph, I don't even know if the City Lord is still alive…Currently, the City Lord's Estate is controlled by Liu Tianchi. He is also a member of the Liu Clan. All these years, if it wasn't for little sister being in Beimang Academy, my Shen Clan would have long ceased to exist…"
"Beimang Academy?"
"Qian 'er's teacher is the Vice Principal of Beimang Academy. It is because of her protection that my Shen family has not been squeezed dry. However, this senior has no choice but to agree to this bet."
"Then what if the Shen family loses and doesn't marry your sister?”
"The other two families will join hands and wash the Shen family with blood," Shen Yi said lightly.
"This is not a long-term plan…"
"What else can we do? Let's stall for time!”
Ye Qiu knew that he was definitely going to jump into this muddy water today. Not to mention the fighting and killing of a few families, it was all for the tragic fate of a woman he had never met before, as well as those two pairs of longing eyes. He laughed bitterly and said,"Really…" I really regret listening to your story…"
"Little brother, you agree?" Shen Yi grabbed Ye Qiu's hand excitedly, but immediately let go in embarrassment."Sorry for being rude…If you help my Shen family this time, then as long as you need my help in the future, I will not decline."
Ye Qiu didn't take Shen Yi, who was so excited that he lost his composure, to heart. He asked with a bitter smile,"Why are you looking for me? I don't think I can help you with this."
"There are only a few people of your age in Beimang who can send the old me flying with a single slap…" The old man's previous bitterness was replaced by a smile.
"Ke ke, Old Man Shen, you really hold grudges…
