Super Soldier King-Chapter 47: Boss, you’ve gone soft

Lin Rou Rou’s expression was full of happiness, she replied, “Who’s your xifu, I didn’t agree to marry you.”

“Huh, have your feelings changed?” Ye Qian pretended to look sorrowful, “That would break my weak heart.”

“That’s not true! Only you could possibly change your feelings, I would never.” Lin Rou Rou gazed at Ye Qian and replied.

Ye Qian chuckled and said, “Who says. Let the sun and moon bear witness, in this life I, Ye Qian, will not marry anyone else.”

After saying this, a group of four young men walked past them. The person in front was Li Dong, the person Ye Qian had beaten up. When he saw him, Ye Qian smiled slightly, it looked like this guy had come to bring him the money. “Mr. Ye!” Li Dong greeted respectfully when he reached Ye Qian.

Ye Qian nodded and turned to Laodie, “Laodie, you and Xiao Yue get in the car and wait for me, I have something to talk about with my friend.”

Laodie looked at Li Dong. He did not seem too look like a reputable person, but he was treating Ye Qian with deference. He nodded and went into the car with Han Xue. Ye Qian glanced at Li Dong then walked to a place off to the side. Li Dong and the others rushed to follow.

“Mr. Ye, I’ve prepared the money. There is twenty thousand here, is it enough?” Li Dong respectfully handed over an envelope with money.

Ye Qian accepted it without looking at him. He opened the envelope and pulled up a little over a dozen bills, then handed the envelope with the rest of the money back, “Take this money and go drinking with your brothers as my treat. Let’s let bygones be bygones and be friends now.”

Li Dong was pleased, but he was a little worried that Ye Qian found the money too little. How could he dare to take back the rest of the money. He replied in a feeble tone, “Brother Ye, don’t you find it lacking? Don’t worry, I’ll go get more.” He had also unconsciously changed his form of address.

Ye Qian smiled helplessly, “I’m letting you take it ,so take it. But I still need your help with something. I don’t know if you’ll agree.”

When Li Dong saw that Ye Qian was being sincere, he quickly took the money and said, “Brother Ye, if you need something done just say the word. As long as it is within Li Dong’s power, Li Dong will go through fire and tread through water to do it.”

“It’s not that serious.” Ye Qian replied. “I only want to borrow your car for one day. Today, my Laodie was discharged from the hospital and has quite a bit of luggage. It would be inconvenient to call a cab.”

Li Dong expected some other type of favor, but it was only this small matter, of course he agreed without hesitation, “If Brother Ye wants to use it, please use it freely.”

“There’s no need for that. Just come to my house tomorrow at noon to get it.” Ye Qian turned around and walked back towards the car, but then he suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned around quickly to say, “If you don’t mind, please just call me by my name. I’m the second eldest in my house, so you can also call me erge.”

“Yes yes, ershao, have a safe trip!” Li Dong replied earnestly. He had seen with his own eyes what happened in the “Bewitched Bar”. Ye Qian was also brothers with Wang Hu. So Li Dong was convinced that Ye Qian was not easy to deal with. Even though he was only a security guard right now, that was surely only a temporary arrangement. He was sure that one day Ye Qian would rise to prominence, so he was willing to do anything to get on Ye Qian’s good side. He was sure that if he followed Ye Qian he would receive advantages in the future

“Ershao?” Ye Qian muttered to himself. He hadn’t been called that in a while. It must be nearly eight years ago. Ye Qian had just started to get mixed up with the bad crowd, a group of brothers had called him that as a joke. Ye Qian did not think that Li Dong was a wicked person. Since he had been in Shanghai for many years, he would be a lot of help to Ye Qian. Having more friends was a good thing. So he was being friendly with him on purpose. Ye Qian nodded, pleased at Li Dong’s attitude.

After taking Laodie and Han Xue to a restaurant for lunch, Ye Qian drove them back home. From the start Laodie had been reluctant, he said going to the restaurant was a waste of money. But he was no match for Ye Qian’s coaxing, so he agreed in the end. Ye Qian had justified it by saying that it was to celebrate Laodie’s leaving the hospital, a little extravagance was not bad.

Ye Qian still did not return to school after lunch. He had already gotten permission to be away for half the day so he didn’t have to hurry back. He stayed with Laodie to chat for a while. Han Xue was about to take her exams, so she locked herself in her room to study. Because she had been caring for Laodie in the hospital, she had very little time to review, so she was trying to make up for it now.

At five o’clock Ye Qian said his goodbye to Laodie and hurried back to the school. Lao Die did not ask where he was going, only telling him to come home early.

He called a taxi outside and not long after was back in the Foreign Languages Institute. When he got off the car, he saw a young man with wretched smile walking over to him. Upon careful inspection of the young man’s appearance, Ye Qian was a little startled, not knowing whether to laugh or to cry, he muttered, “Kao, he got here too fast.”

“Boss, haven’t seen you in a while.” The young man said after reaching Ye Qian. He smiled mischievously as he spoke.

“Don’t tell me you were spying on me.” Ye Qian replied.

“How could I do that. I was just protecting you secretly. You’re the leader of the Wolf Fang, how could we relax and let you go back to China alone.” The young man replied.

“Kao!” Ye Qian shook his head helplessly. It seemed that he had been too relaxed this past few days, he didn’t even notice that he was being watched this entire time. Luckily it was his ally, if it were an enemy he might be breathing his last. “How did you know I was coming back to China? I only called them now.” Ye Qian asked helplessly. Ye Qian remembered clearly that he only called just now to tell those xiaozi that he was back in China.

“Boss, you’ve gone soft now that you’re back in your birthplace. How could you forget?” When the young man said these words it was really as if Ye Qian had indeed gone soft.

“Like fuck I got soft.” Ye Qian glared at him and said, “Tell me quickly, how did you know I came back?”

“Boss, did you forget that all our phones have a GPS installed? How could we not know where you are?” The young man replied.
