âI fancy a lot of things, but my favorite is exquisite places.â Yun Yang stood up. âAlright, since you insist.â
Dong Tianleng understood right away. âIf my lord wants to go to Cirrus House next time, this little brother will always treat you!â
âHmm?â Yun Yang sighed. âAs long as you donât anger me, itâs good enough. How dare I make the great young master, Young Master Dong, buy me a meal?â
Dong Tianleng grinned and said ingratiatingly, âAs long as my lord is willing to go, even my ancestors will feel blessed!â
The corners of Yun Yangâs lips twitched.
I wonder what the seniors of the Dong Family would think if they heard this?
Iâm only going to drink with you and your ancestors of Dong Family would feel blessed?
âŠ
Dong Tianleng reminded Yun Yang repeatedly on their way, âIf we come across the two fellows from Chun Family and Xia Family, donât ever speak of the lionâs case. Sigh, Qiu Yunsan wonât be able to come out now. I donât know if his wounds have already rotted with pus⊠Itâs⊠so gratifyingâŠâ
Yun Yang really could not take it anymore. When they were near the doors of Cirrus House, he finally said frowning, âDong Tianleng, let me ask you⊠what type of education is it that you have been receiving since young?â
Dong Tianleng scratched his head and said, âKindness, kinship, courtesy, intelligence, faith, loyalty, filial piety, modesty, justice, a lionâs heart for the nation and its peopleâŠâ
Yun Yang replied, âF*ck off!â
âŠ
âThis young master is here again!â Once Dong Tianleng entered Cirrus House, he displayed the demeanor of a noble familyâs descendant. From the moment he entered, each servant and maid he saw previously was given a hundred silver taels each.
However, they realized that there were no more rooms to be had.
Dong Tianleng was direct, throwing a thousand silver taels into one of the halls. âBrothers, please honor me. Take these taels and give the hall to me.â
A scholar inside frowned. âYou basâŠâ
Dong Tianleng put his palm down again. âFive thousand taels!â
âWe donât mean thisâŠâ The person hesitated.
Another wave of his palm, âTen thousand taels!â
With a loud swoosh, five to six people immediately disappeared from the Winter Snow Hall.
Yun Yang was speechless.
He had witnessed several cases of harassment using oneâs wealth but it was still a first for him to see such exorbitant behavior, escalating the amount from a thousand taels like the great Young Master Dong.
Somehow, he got to enjoy the feeling of being a millionaire as well.
âGratifying?â Dong Tianleng threw himself onto the chair leisurely and crossed his ankle on his other leg with a chuckle. âIf they donât leave with ten thousand taels, this young master shall stuff them with a million taels!â
Yun Yang was rolling his eyes endlessly. It was natural for Yun Zuiyue to know that Yun Yang had come. She was a smart woman after all, noticing the oddity in the recent atmosphere, she was both happy and worried.
After some hesitation, she finally decided to still come greet him.
When she arrived at the entrance of the Winter Snow Hall, she heard Yun Yangâs voice from the outside. âDong Tianleng, youâre probably not as familiar to Cirrus House as I am. Iâm a regularâŠâ
Yun Zuiyue was stunned.
Yun Yangâs tone was rather cocky. This is⊠a little odd.
Yun Zuiyue walked in softly and saw Dong Tianleng right away. This fellow had been frequenting Cirrus House so often recently that he was a regular too.
âWhy, Itâs Young Master Dong.â Yun Zuiyue greeted him courteously.
Dong Tianleng chortled in triumph and said, âLady Zuiyue, you honor me too much by coming over personally. Those fellows canât even see you after all trying sorts of methods.â
This man had frequented Cirrus House for about a dozen times already but he had only ever seen Yun Zuiyue on his first visit. Seeing that Yun Zuiyue had actually come over this time, he was surprised by the sudden attention.
âYou wish!â Yun Yang stood up and chuckled. âSister Yue, little brother misses you so much.â
Yun Zuiyue understood immediately. She replied in a velvety smooth voice, âLittle flirt! How many days have you not come to see Sister Yue already and you actually dare say you miss meâŠâ
âAm I not here now?â Yun Yang cried like a man wronged and said shamelessly, âIâve been so antsy these days. Iâve heard that a popinjay has clung to Sister Yue so I came running over immediately. How dare I wait to do this?â
Yun Zuiyue replied, her eyes sparkling, âItâs fine now⊠That young master doesnât come anymore.â
Yun Yang nodded. âThat is a good thing.â
Dong Tianleng was poleaxed as an ox as he stuttered, âYou know each other? Are you very close?â
Yun Yang looked at him like he was seeing a foolish child. âWhat do you think?â
Dong Tianlengâs expression was crestfallen. âSo you didnât come because of meâŠâ
Yun Zuiyue chuckled, her radiance beaming beautifully like blooming flowers.
Both Yun Yang and Dong Tianleng stared at her; one was genuinely admiring while the other was acting for all his worth.
âSister Yueâs place is buzzing as alwaysâŠâ Yun Yang laughed and said, âItâs so busy every day. Who has come today? Is there anyone Iâm familiar with?â
Yun Zuiyue understood the meaning behind the seemingly innocent question and said, âPlease, Young Master Yun is my honorable guest. However, there are really not many from those who have come that Young Master Yun is familiar with.â
Yun Yang said surprised, âSurely not?â
âYou havenât been here for while so you have not heardâŠâ Yun Zuiyue smiled, covering her mouth. âAll seven halls of Cirrus House are full today. Even the biggest hall in the middle has people queueing up for it. Sister Yue is about to be consumed by the hectic pace of this place.â
Yun Yang laughed and said, âSister Yue, does that mean that you canât keep me company for long? I knew Sister Yue would be running away again.â
Yun Zuiyue was torn. âItâs mainly because other customers would be angry. Iâm afraid to cause you trouble as well.â
Yun Yang chuckled and replied, âSister Yue, I have yet to introduce you. This is Young Master Dong.â
Yun Zuiyue smiled. âI know him already.â
âThatâs you knowing him, not me introducing him.â Yun Yang pointed at Dong Tianleng and said, âYoung Master Dong Tianleng is a very good friend of mine. Heâs righteous and forthright, a good friend anyone would ever ask for.â
Dong Tianleng felt himself beaming with pride, puffing his chest out as he laughed. âBrother Yun has flattered me, itâs an exaggeration.â
Yun Yang continued, âThis brother of mine is the descendant of the Dong Family, one of the eight noble families in the martial arts world. His cultivation base is exceptional and his enemies are rarely found roaming the martial arts world! Heâs heroic in the face of injustice, avenging grudges and dismissing worldly matters! He is indeed a man of men of our times, an extraordinary man whoâs hard to come across.â
Dong Tianleng felt like he was on cloud nine from the compliments, his eyes disappearing into lines from his grin but he spoke otherwise, âNo, no⊠youâre flattering meâŠâ
His heart though, was yearning â My lord, compliment me more, give me more praises! Never has there been anyone who praised me like this ever since I was born.
Everyone who met me would call me outright â You shameless ass!
This is really my first time ever to be complimented like thisâŠ
Yun Yang did not let him down as he continued singing praises. âSister Yue, thereâs nothing Brother Dong canât solve in Tianxuan Continent. If Iâm not here, go to him for anything! If he doesnât care about them, it would be his reputation at stake.â
Dong Tianleng patted his chest and said with burning generosity, âThatâs right. Sister Yue, come look for me, Dong Tianleng, if anyone dares find fault with you. If I donât get back at them, Iâm â Iâm⊠not brought up by a human being!â
Yun Zuiyue smiled gently as she said, âYoung Master Dong, thereâs no need to be like this. Besides, thereâs not much trouble⊠Itâs already great that Young Master Dong can spend time here. Donât spoil your mood for the sake of such petty matters.â
Dong Tianleng clapped his chest loudly. âSister Yue, what do you mean! Sister Yue is my lordâs Sister Yue, this means youâre my birth sister! If I could still remain indifferent to whoever dares mess with my birth sister, how could my dignity remain intact? Dong Familyâs ancestors wonât let me go too!â
Yun Zuiyue chuckled softly and said, âYoung Master DongâŠâ
Dong Tianleng urged. âSister Yue, just call me Little Cold. Weâre siblings, call me Little Cold, itâs my nickname!â
Yun Zuiyue smiled, âI dare not!â
Dong Tianleng grew anxious. âSister Yue is mocking me!â
âI really dare not.â Yun Zuiyue shook her head and said with a troubled expression, âYoung Master Dong is my guest of honor.â
Dong Tianleng was anxious as he sprung up and kneeled down on the ground. âIf Sister Yue despises me and doesnât call me Little Cold, I wonât get up!â
Yun Zuiyue was dumbfounded.
How could Yun Yang get along with this oddball? Why was he kneeling down?
She looked imploringly at Yun Yang.
Yun Yang coughed. âLittle Cold, this is not good. Sister Yue is afraid to cause you troubles, how could you not understand her kind intention?â
Dong Tianleng kneeled determined. âIâm not afraid of any troubles! Sister Yue, I wonât get up if you donât call me Little Cold!â
Yun Yang sighed and said, âSister Yue, Little Cold is not an outsider⊠Besides, outsiders wonât know it, it wonât spoil his reputation.â
âI donât have a reputation!â Dong Tianleng was agitated. âSister Yue~â
âAlright, Little Cold.â Yun Zuiyue was helpless.
âSister Yue, I wonât get up if you donât come to me when there are troubles in future!â Dong Tianleng went a step further.
Yun Zuiyue sighed and said softly, âLittle Cold, this sister knows your kind intention. Iâm happy as it is, just knowing your thoughts. Sister has had a hard life, and this place is not somewhere you can come often⊠Get up quick, Iâll take you as my brother.â
âSister is still taking me as an outsider!â Dong Tianleng grew lionhearted, a sense of justice rising from his heart. âBut Iâll keep my words! I wonât get up if sister doesnât promise me!â
âAlright, alrightâŠâ Yun Zuiyue said exasperatedly. âI promise you.â
Dong Tianleng sprung up in delight. âThank you so much, Sister Yue! Thank you, boss!â
Yun Zuiyue gave Yun Yang a glance, not understanding how this fellow was so capable of having fooled a young master from the noble family into such a state of oblivion.
âSince Little Cold is now my little brother, everything shall be on the house when Little Cold comes the next time!â Yun Zuiyue said in a gentle voice, âThink of it as this elder sisterâs small token from today onwards⊠A meeting gift for little brother.â
Dong Tianlengâs eyes were rimmed red. âAbsolutely not! Little brother is rich! It doesnât have to be free, you can charge me double, ten times even. Really, I donât have anywhere else to spend my fortune!â
