Chapter 905 - Spoke Wrongly
Here is Chapter 905 of "Super Soldier in the City": Chapter 905: Chapter 946 Spoke Wrongly"Hey, kid, tell me about the process." Suâs Third Eldest... Donât miss it!
Chapter 905: Chapter 946 Spoke Wrongly"Hey, kid, tell me about the process." Suâs Third Eldest followed Li Yifei and Su Mengxin to the small villa. As soon as he entered the house, he eagerly grabbed Li Yifei and started asking.
Xiao Hongyuan and Zheng Feihu were members of their respective families, so this wasnât exactly a highly secretive matterâat least, not for Suâs Third Eldest, for whom this certainly wasnât a secretâso he admitted openly, "It was Xiao Hongyuan and Zheng Feihu, plus two other middle-aged men."
"Damn, it was those two!" Suâs Third Eldest suddenly exclaimed, then looked Li Yifei up and down and said, "I get it now, all of you are in it together. In the end, they definitely couldnât let you lose, but you must have had your fair share of hardships, heh heh..." The thought of Li Yifeiâs tattered shirt made Suâs Third Eldest laugh uncontrollably; he never even considered that Li Yifei could have not been defeated.
Li Yifei didnât bother to go into detail about the fighting with Suâs Third Eldest. There was no need for him to show off how he was able to hold his own against Xiao Hongyuan and Zheng Feihu. Though it might elevate his reputation, others might not believe that he was truly strong enough to compare with those two, and might instead think that their abilities had diminished.
Actually, Li Yifei was well aware that the strength of those two hadnât decreased at all, and that, with years of dedicated practice, they had become even more formidable.
"Kid, when you go back this time, you need to be careful. The He Family and Chen Family have suffered a big loss. Even though the Xiao Family and Zheng Family have allied with us and canât do much to those two families for now, they wonât let this go. Theyâll definitely take their resentment out on you. Although youâre strong, thereâs no telling what kind of tricks these people might use. If youâre not careful and they get the drop on you, it wonât be pleasant."
Li Yifei nodded and said, "I know. I donât want to provoke these troubles, but somehow they always find their way to me."
Suâs Third Eldest patted Li Yifeiâs shoulder and said with a glare, "The more troubles that come, the more interesting life gets. If every day was dull, what would be the fun in that?"
Li Yifei couldnât help but admire Suâs Third Eldestâs character; despite his age, he was still keen on having fun.
"Iâll tell you this: whether you live happily or in discomfort, life is still life. In the matter of women, weâre equals, but when it comes to attitude towards other things, you still fall short of me. In the future, you should learn more from your Third Grandpa. I guarantee youâll enjoy it. And tonight, letâs go out and have some fun."
Su Mengxin immediately glared and asked, "Third Grandpa, where are you planning to take Yifei for fun?"
Suâs Third Eldestâs expression was perfectly natural as he replied, "Of course, weâre going somewhere nice. This is my first meeting with Yifei, and we hit it off straight away. Itâs normal for us to go out and HAPPY a bit, isnât it? My dear granddaughter, although you are exceptionally talented and I canât compare to you, a man canât be tied down. Social engagements are necessary, you know."
Seeing how naturally Suâs Third Eldest spoke, Li Yifei felt somewhat awkward. Though not a blood grandfather, he still was a direct relative. Yet, Third Grandpa was planning to take his grandson-in-law out for fun and was so confidently persuading his granddaughter. This guy was truly too shameless for his age.
"Third Grandpa, I wonât go today; Iâm really too tired."
Su Mengxin also shot Third Grandpa a disdainful look and grumbled, "Yeah, didnât you see how Yifei was struggling even to walk when he came out?"
Suâs Third Eldest chuckled heh heh and said, "Then I canât help it. Grandson-in-law, weâll find another time to go out. Today, Iâll just go have fun by myself," and then he slipped away.
Su Mengxin shook her head and said, "My Third Grandpa really leaves me speechless."
Li Yifei laughed and said, "Heâs quite genuine, though. I quite like him."
Su Mengxin glared at Li Yifei and warned, "Let me tell you, youâd better not learn from him. I wonât bother with your past antics, but if you start visiting those messy places and finding those messy women, Iâll definitely team up with everyone to deal with you."
Li Yifei chuckled and said, "Why would I be so foolish? With so many beautiful wives at home, why would I go looking for something on the side? Besides, those vulgar women canât compare to you. Why would I opt for the bad when I have the good?"
"Thatâs not necessarily true. Home flowers may not smell as sweet as wild flowers, and in those places, there are still some quite classy girls who end up there for money or other reasons."
Li Yifei suddenly remembered Su Yiyi. Had he not met her, Su Yiyi might have been counted among those unfortunate girls.
Su Mengxin then said, "Isnât there a saying, âA wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a steal, and a steal is not as good as not being able to stealâ? Do you men just like novelty that much?"
Li Yifei chuckled and replied, "Now that Iâm with you all, Iâve already experienced the thrill of stealth. Iâm not craving that anymore."
After a few jokes, Su Mengxin told Li Yifei to go upstairs and rest.
Li Yifei was indeed very tired. The battle this time was no less strenuous than the last one against Satan, even more challenging. Lying in bed, it took him less than two minutes to fall into a deep sleep, not waking up until the next morning when it was bright.
By that time, Su Mengxin hadnât woken up yet. Li Yifei didnât disturb her and simply dressed himself and went out to the yard.
Yesterdayâs battle was also a tremendous opportunity for Li Yifei. A fight where one risks life and death, and with a sufficiently strong opponent, always benefits a martial artist tremendously. This is why masters often seek out stronger opponents for comparison. At such times, mere understanding through self-reflection is ineffective. Only through numerous battles and struggling on the brink of death can one unlock greater potential and grasp deeper insights.
At this moment, he could properly assimilate these experiences, thoroughly absorb and integrate them into his abilities. Li Yifeiâs rapid progress over the years, aside from his innate talent, was mainly due to this special ability to learn from combat, each fight bringing him improvement.
Xiao Hongyuan and Zheng Feihu were aware of this too, but the benefits each person gained varied. Li Yifei was the kind of anomaly who gained considerably more from such experiences.
Over the next two days, the Su Family, Xiao Family, and Zheng Family detailed their negotiations over the collaboration.
This was a major affair. Both sides strived for their interests, which was more complex than formal business negotiations due to the myriad of issues involved and the vast interests to be allocated. These were not matters that could be settled in just a day or two.
Since the specifics of the collaboration hadnât been finalized, the affairs regarding Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling had to be postponed. While Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling were anxious, Li Yifei felt it was a good thing. He truly didnât know how he would face Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling when the time came. Avoiding a direct confrontation for the moment was a relief. In fact, Li Yifei knew that the situation couldnât be changed; he was merely adopting an ostrich approach, procrastinating for as long as possible.
Li Yifei temporarily had nothing else to do, so he hurried back to Mile City. Su Mengxin still had matters to attend to in Capital City, so she did not accompany him back.
The two had spent four or five days together; Su Mengxinâs period had coincidentally started when Li Yifei arrived, and it had ended by the time he left. This once again caused them to miss the opportunity to consummate their relationship.
Yet neither of them was disappointed; in fact, it seemed they had purposefully split up prior to the end of Su Mengxinâs cycle, leaving something to look forward to. This created a sense of anticipation between them, which might have dissipated had they actually been intimate.
Returning to Mile City, there was someone Li Yifei was eager to seeâXu Yingying. Before Xu Yingying left, she had told him that once she returned, they would consummate their relationship. Although this had happened countless times already, due to Xu Yingyingâs amnesia, it felt like the very first time to Li Yifei.
Having not seen his daughter for nearly a week, Li Yifei was eager to get home. Upon his return, he went straight to the family residence and entered. There was no one in the living room. It was early March, so Chu Xiaoyao had gone back to school, and Su Yiyi was surely at school too. Xu Shanshan would be at work, so only Ye Yunzhu, her daughter, and Ning Xinâer should have been at home.
Rushing upstairs, Li Yifei entered Ye Yunzhuâs room, but, surprisingly, besides the baby in the crib, there was no sign of anyone else. This surprised Li Yifei, but he didnât mind much because he had heard noise from the bathroom when he came upstairs, probably Ye Yunzhu using the toilet. And it was quite possible that Ye Yunzhuâs mother and Ning Xinâer had gone out.
"Wow..." His baby daughter suddenly started crying, and he hurriedly, carefully picked her up. Her cries immediately stopped.
Li Yifei was delighted, gently kissing his daughterâs tender little face and asked, "Darling, did you miss Daddy?"
His baby daughter couldnât understand Li Yifeiâs words, but being held seemed to comfort her. She was puckering her lips, probably hungry.
Footsteps approached from behind, and Li Yifei, without looking back, began to turn around and said, "Yunzhu, look how well-behaved our daughter is. She stops crying the second I hold her. Now she can even recognize her daddy..."
But before he could finish saying "daddy," Li Yifei stopped short, for it wasnât Ye Yunzhu standing in front of him. It was Xu Yingying.
