Martial Arts Master in the City

"Ye Xiao is right, Coco, your brother is a man!"

Jiang Miaoke was stunned when she heard Jiang Chuan's words. Clearly, even she didn't know what to say.

At this time, Ye Ziyan came over as well, took Jiang Miaoke's hand with a smile, and said, "Coco, I thought your brother was quite annoying just now, but now I feel there's hope for him. I think he should take a good pause now, maybe, one minute of peace could change his whole life's fate."

Jiang Miaoke looked at Ye Ziyan, sighed, and then sat down slowly. Ye Xiao, meanwhile, leaned back and sat where Jiang Chuan had just been. At this time, Jiang Miaoke was on his right side, and Ye Xiao waved towards Ye Ziyan and said, "Sit here."

Ye Ziyan immediately giggled and sat down on Ye Xiao's left side.

"Surrounded by beautiful ladies, looks like today's appetite is going to be fantastic," Ye Xiao said with a hearty laugh.

"Of all times, you're still in the mood for that," Jiang Miaoke remarked.

Hearing Jiang Miaoke's words, Ye Xiao burst into laughter and said to her, "Now is the time when you think of..."

"Think of what my foot, do you think I haven't been educated?" Jiang Miaoke shot Ye Xiao a contemptuous look and said.

Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "Oh well, I'm starving. Look at this delicious feast, we'd better enjoy it properly."

At this moment, Jiang Miaoke was focused on her brother. Being carefree and eating a full meal wasn't something she was in the mood for.

However, Ye Xiao, whether truly hungry or just in a particularly good mood for food, surprisingly had a big appetite.

But halfway through eating, Ye Xiao suddenly remembered something very important.

"Who's paying for today's meal?" Ye Xiao turned to look at Jiang Miaoke.

Jiang Miaoke retorted, "There are only three of us. You said you wanted to treat me. What, are you expecting me to pay?"

"Right, I did say I'd treat you to dinner. There's no way I'd make you pay, but I never said I was the one paying," Ye Xiao said righteously.

Jiang Miaoke immediately turned to Ye Ziyan, glaring at Ye Xiao with contempt, and said, "Ye Xiao, I've seen people who scam their parents, but not someone who scams their sister."

Ye Xiao quickly looked at Ye Ziyan, then shook his head firmly, and said, "The plan was for a guy to pay."

"Who?"

"Jiang Chuan!"

"Are you kidding?" Jiang Miaoke looked at Ye Xiao with displeasure and said, "Ye Xiao, don't go too far. My brother is in a really bad mood right now, don't rub salt in his wounds."

"Okay, so now there's a multiple-choice question," a sly look appeared on Ye Xiao's face.

Jiang Miaoke was puzzled by Ye Xiao's words and immediately asked, "What multiple-choice question?"

"Actually, it's quite simple. The question is whether a husband is more important or a brother is more important. Option A: the husband is more important, Ye Xiao is the hottest and most charming husband, husband pays the bill. Option B: I choose the brother, because the brother can pay the bill. If you don't choose, it defaults to Option C, which is the same as choosing A," Ye Xiao finished speaking and looked smugly at Jiang Miaoke.

Jiang Miaoke looked at Ye Xiao with the most disdainful look and finally squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth: "Ye Xiao, can you be any more shameless?"

"I can!" Ye Xiao said triumphantly.

Jiang Miaoke was completely defeated by Ye Xiao, but now facing such a difficult multiple-choice question, she was utterly confused.

Obviously, this question must be answered. If she didn't choose, it would default to Option A, which meant she would let Ye Xiao take advantage for nothing. That was undoubtedly too easy on Ye Xiao.

But if she chose Option B, she'd have to let her brother Jiang Chuan, who was still upset, pay the bill, which seemed a bit harsh to Jiang Miaoke.

Jiang Miaoke was instantly caught in a dilemma.

"Brother, don't make things difficult for sister-in-law Coco," Ye Ziyan pleaded, looking at Ye Xiao earnestly.

Ye Xiao coughed twice, looked at Ye Ziyan, and said, "You even called her sister-in-law Coco."

Ye Ziyan realized she had slipped up and immediately shut her mouth.

"Alright, alright, then stop torturing yourself with this," Ye Xiao said considerately to Jiang Miaoke.

Jiang Miaoke wasn't a fool. She knew that not answering today was the same as having answered, because not answering was equivalent to choosing Option C.

"I choose A!" After thinking it over and over, Jiang Miaoke finally said her choice.

Jiang Miaoke was still quite worried about Jiang Chuan, so she chose A. Despite facing some embarrassment, at least she wouldn't disturb Jiang Chuan.

"You're a good sister!" Ye Xiao said with a smile.

When Jiang Miaoke heard Ye Xiao's words, she was slightly taken aback. Seeing Ye Xiao's smile, as warm as a spring breeze, her face turned red, and she said coquettishly, "Annoying!"

"Haha, if I weren't annoying, how would you choose me as the hottest, most stylish husband? Coco dear, you must adore me the most, right?" Ye Xiao shamelessly chuckled as he looked at Jiang Miaoke.

"Hmph, I was left with no choice, so don't get any ideas!" Jiang Miaoke retorted.

"Hmph, I'm not overthinking," Ye Xiao replied, "I was just saying it casually."

When Jiang Miaoke heard this, she was once again taken aback, clearly not understanding what Ye Xiao meant by "saying it casually."

Ye Xiao then chuckled and said, "Let's hurry up and eat."

Afterwards, Ye Xiao lowered his head and continued eating, as if nothing had been said at all earlier. Ye Ziyan and Jiang Miaoke exchanged a glance, didn't speak, and also slowly began to eat.

As they were about to finish, Ye Xiao's phone suddenly rang. He looked at it and saw the name Fu Donglai displayed on the screen.

Ye Xiao saw it was a call from Fu Donglai and immediately smiled as he stood up, walked to the side, and answered the call.

Ye Ziyan and Jiang Miaoke both looked toward Ye Xiao, clearly curious about who was calling him.

Ye Xiao didn't want them to know too much about those less-than-sunny affairs. Isn't a carefree life nice? That's exactly the kind of life Ye Xiao hoped for the people important to him.

"Brother Xiao!" Fu Donglai was incredibly excited at that moment.

Ye Xiao smiled and said, "Did it succeed?"

Fu Donglai laughed heartily and said, "It succeeded, and it was a big success! That Feng Yang is a total wimp. Though the Feng family's guards had some skills, after battling all morning, Feng Yang just surrendered."
