Chapter 665: Sparring (1)
You jerk, youre impossible
Cant believe Fei was a bride, interesting
As Ye Lang spoke, everyone reacted accordingly, smiling. They thought Ye Langs life was very interesting, hed been to many places.
After a while, he finally finished his story of what he did at Ai La Empire. However, there was one important question too.
And that was
Why did you bring the princess here? What sickness does she have?
Thats right, they still didnt know what sickness she had and why she followed him around.
This is a little complicated Let me ask you a question, how old do you think she is? Ye Lang frowned. It was a complex problem, so he asked them a question instead.
Seven or eight?
Eight, at most.
Everyone said their answers, none of them more than ten years old.
Ye Lang smiled and shook his head.
Ye Lang, you mean shes not seven or eight? You mean shes only five? Shes growing too quickly? When Ye Lang saw his expression, she knew they were all wrong.
Ye Lang shook his head, saying, No! Its actually the reverse. Its not that she grew too fast but that she stopped growing. Shes already fifteen, shell be sixteen in a few months.
What?!
How is that possible?
Are you kidding?
Everyone gasped, including the empress dowager, who had lost her composure staring at the little princess. No one believed him.
Thats her sickness- the No-Aging Disease! said Ye Lang.
What kind of sickness is that? Thats so weird? The seventh princess squatted down, though the little princess quickly hid behind Ye Lang, peeking two timid eyes from his hip.
Shes already fifteen. Why does she look like a child, a very shy one too? asked Ye Lanyu.
Thats her personality, I cant explain it! Alright, were done here. Im going back to sleep. Call me when its time for food. Ye Lang got up. He was too lazy to explain.
Youre sleeping again? Are you still tired? Also, do you know where your room is?
Of course! Its not like this is my first time here
As he spoke, he led the princess away and did not stay to talk. He did not care.
Coldblood Five bowed and left with him.
Grandma, were leaving! Ye Lanyu and the seventh princess left too. They did not want to let go of this opportunity to spend time with Ye Lang.
Grandma, Auntie, Uncle, you all go ahead. Ill go check on his quarters. Princess Longji quickly found an excuse to leave. Before they could respond, she left too.
Why are you all following me? Dont worry, I know how to get there, said Ye Lang immediately after seeing Ye Lanyu and the rest.
We just want to come with you, cant we do that? said Ye Lanyu with a smile.
You can! said Ye Lang immediately.
Although she was smiling, he knew that if he did not say yes, she would make him suffer.
It had been twenty years, they knew each other well.
As the noisy ones left with Ye Lang, things grew much quieter on the empress and Long Anqis side.
And just like that, in the middle of it all, Ye Chengtian also slipped away to talk to his son.
The father and son had not seen each other in so long, he had lots to say too. The girls immediately shut up, not daring to offend Ye Chengtian. At the same time, they understood that they should give some time to the father.
That night, after their father-and-son time, it was the mothers turn. That, they could not deny either.
On the next morning, Ye Lang washed up after rising and sat in the yard to watch a show No, more like watching someone train in martial arts.
This person was very, very small. Like a child
Eh, isnt that the little princess? She does sword fighting?
Princess Longji rose early too. She was surprised to see the little princess, and at the same time noticed that her style was very unconventional.
Yeah, not sure whats up with her. She seems to like sword fighting. But its healthy and trains the body, perhaps shell grow, said Ye Lang, nodding.
Actually, I admire her a lot. Being a child forever seems so nice, you dont have to worry about anything, said Princess Longji gently.
Everyone admires everyone elses life but you will never know their sufferings. If she lives like that forever, shell be cared for too. Yes, she doesnt need to be worried about anything, but how will she experience the wonders of life? said Ye Lang wistfully. This was something he did sometimes.
The wonders of life. I guess. Should a person live an exciting life or a quiet, stable one? No one can say for sure, everyone has their own answer, said Princess Longji, also getting philosophical.
If I could choose, I would choose a quiet and stable life. But I wouldnt want to be a child forever, a child cant do many things, said Ye Lang.
Cant do what? said Princess Longji with equal nonchalance.
There are so many things, for example, something between a man and a woman
Stop there! You jerk, I cant believe you think like that! Ive underestimated you!
What? Its the truth
Stop it!
Fine, and I thought girls liked talking about romantic love. Why are you so repulsed by it? No wonder you cant marry anyone!
Princess Longji fell silent. She didnt expect him to be referring to that as something only adults can do. Anyone wouldve misunderstood, with the way he worded his sentence.
Cough cough, her swordsmanship isnt bad at all, though I havent seen this style before. What style is this? Who taught her? Princess Longji changed the topic. Although she was curious, she didnt really care. This was just to change the topic.
My style. Its called the Nine Dugu Swords, said Ye Lang.
What?! You? You know swordsmanship?!
