Even if you don’t trust hter?”
Ye Ci was baffled by his words She turned around and faced her parents, “Dad, ns of wariness ritten all over the faces of Ye Nantian and Zuo Xiaolan They exchanged looks with each other, and Ye Nantian was the one who spoke up, “Aiya, we’re confused ourselves Bai Mo, you heard what Uncle Dong said as well Why don’t you explain it to Little Ci?”
Bai Mo as busy digging into his food aled when his name was called He lifted his head, “Uncle, you want me to explain it to her?”

“No, this food was ordered by your Blosso Wealth compartment” the head waitress said with a s Yin’s mother stood up immediately, “No, we did not order these dishes” Her expression darkened when she took a look at the freshly served food
“Yup, we did not order this You must’ve been mistaken! Re’s mother stood up as well She even attempted to shove one of the plates back into the head waitress’s hand
Ye Ci, on the other hand, wedged a piece of venison between her chopsticks and placed it into her bowl, and another piece straight into her e, “Did you not hear that, Ye Ci? We did not order these! Why have you started eating? Do you know just how much these dishes cost?”
Ye Nantian and Zuo Xiaolan turned pale when the heard Yi Cang’s voice “What are you doing! Behave yourself!” they atteetically at the parents of Yi Cang and Dong Yin, “We’re sorry, ill pay for these di-”
“Can you even afford it?” Yi Cang slammed his fist onto the table, “These are abalone, shark fin, and even s’s nest! Any of these dishes is worth your ’s words were full of disdain and disgust When Ye Ci thought back to this incident, she ca’s words represented what his and Dong Yin’s parents truly felt about the parents of Ye Ci and Liu Chang If that would not bet the case, they would not have re threw his tantruht have had for organizing the banquet, it was a fact that they thought themselves to be superior
“You take that back!” Bai Mo stood up as well, “We have adults here, and who are you to speak when none of them have spoken?” Bai Mo snorted and scanned the faces of the adults, “Is this how things work in your house? The youngsters can just behave rudely without fearing repercussions? Is this how you educate your child?”
“I dare you to say that again!” Yi Cang was fairly afraid of Bai Mo, but the presence of his parents gave hie to roar out at Bai Mo
“Just what you think you’re doing Yi Cang? Respect your elders! Shut up and sit down!” Yi Cang’s father could no longer remain quiet when he heard Bai Mo’s words He would lose face in front of sowas flustered He sat down and glared at Bai Mo, “Just you wait, Bai Mo”
“Shut up!” Yi Cang’s father roared at his son again, and then turn around to face the lead waitress He offered her an apologetical smile and started, “You see, we did not order these dishes We will pay for the ones that we have touched, and you return the rest, how about that?”
Ye Ci was still ument The meat was just so nice It orth the price She spoke up softly, “Put everything down, I was the one who ordered those”
“Ye Ci! Do you really think you can order anything you want just because you’re not paying for it? Do you know just how much they cost?” everybody present were stunned when they heard Ye Ci’s words Even Dong Yin who has reainst Ye Ci, “Even if my family was the one who invited all of you to dinner, we’ve already ordered all the dishes If you’re not satisfied with the food, you could’ve just told us! We could orderas holding in her anger all this while finally lost her te Yin, “Ye Ci has already paid for everything, so why can’t she eat what she paid for? Have you seen what you ordered for us? Those are like food for beggars!”
Dong Yin’s anger dissipated i with a bright shade of red The waiters glanced at the dishes subconsciously after listening to Liu Chang’s words The food that was served previously was indeed more co Yin’s father could no longer stand the ehter down back into her seat, “You silly girl, don’t you speak out of turn!” He then smiled at Ye Ci, “Little Ci, you should’ve told uncle that you do not like the food I was the one as going to treat everybody to a meal, so why don’t you let uncle pay for the food?”
Ye Ci narrowed her eyes and spoke softly, “It’s just a , does it? I’eneration, so just think of it as ”
The face of Dong Yin’s father darkened when he heard Ye Ci’s words Just then, she head waitress nodded at Ye Ci with a s that you ordered, is there anything else you need?”
Ye Ci glanced at the dishes that had just been served They were nowhere as lavish as the food she used to have in her past life, but her parents would definitely be alarmed by the price of the food Despite her intention to deliver so, she still had to take her parents into consideration Ye Ci nodded and ordered two slightlythem in e’re almost done with our meal” and she handed a few banknotes to the head waitress, “Thank you for your hard work”
“Thank you, miss” the head waitress accepted the tip with a broad smile and left the room
Ye Ci’s movements were fluid and natural It was as if she was used to doing such a thing Even Bai Mo was surprised Since when has she learned to act like this?
They would never know that Ye Ci acquired it froant way of life in her past life Despite her present self, her elegance would surface occasionally, just like this ti to tell me?” Ye Ci turned around and faced Bai Mo
Bai Mo snapped out of his daze, and relayed the words of Dong Yin’s father to Ye Ci According to hi have invested in Steel-Blooded Battle Spear, giving their support to Thousand Sunsets
The parents of Dong Yin and Yi Cang were quick to find out that Ye Ci was actually Gongzi You, and that ‘Upwards Ho!’ has secured a First Blood for Castle Ruins Just like any other huo to waste They had to do soe that Dong Yin and Yi Cang had a fall out with Ye Ci and Liu Chang, they decided to organize a banquet, and hoped to pressure Ye Ci’s parents into persuading their daughter to offer her aid
Of course, those were not the words of the father of Dong Yin, nor were they spoken by Bai Mo It was a conclusionto Bai Mo’s explanation She raised her eyebrows and studied Bai Mo’s expression, which further confirmed her theory
Ye Ci was very sure that if they had a privatewould be their conversation:
“You ! They really said that?”
“Yup, that’s what they said!”
“Why won’t they give up?”
“In this world, only the shameless will survive Those who are honorable will slowly die off”

Uncle know that you will definitely help uncle out right?” the hter and smiled, “See? I told you that you can talk to Little Ci She’s such a good girl She agreed to help right away Why didn’t you ask for her help earlier on?”

That hy Dong Yin stared at Ye Ci’s face She wanted a confirmation from Ye Ci, but she was offered none Ye Ci’s face betrayed not even a single shred of ereed to help, why don’t you help Steel-Blooded Battle Spear out today when you log into the gaood at the game Steel-Blooded Battle Spear will be able to secure a spot in the First Five with your help What do you think?”
