Gigolo (3)
At this moment, Ye Lang spoke up, calmly saying casually, "They're just ordinary friends. Does that need further explanation? Anyway, my relationship with Li Yue is better than yours!"
"..." This answer is probably something very few people would come up with, and even if they did, they wouldn't say it out loud. It's just blatant boasting and belittling.
He flaunted his relationship with Li Yue and then humiliated those present who wanted to pursue Li Yue.
"You..." Just as someone was feeling extremely annoyed and about to swear, Li Yue made her move.
"Yes! He's right!" Li Yue nodded, acknowledging Ye Lang's statement, which indirectly helped Ye Lang to strike back at those people, and also made Ye Lang look good.
"..."
The crowd fell silent once again, perhaps because they all needed to process Li Yue's attitude. They realized that Li Yue was protecting Ye Lang, even if Ye Lang's words were somewhat offensive.
Although this is just a small matter and doesn't prove anything, it at least shows that they are not just ordinary friends.
That alone is enough to make anyone envious!
"Hmph, pretty boy, what right do you have to be by Miss Li Yue's side!" one person sneered.
"How could a mere pretty boy from the Fox Tribe be worthy of our Miss Li Yue? He has no shame!!"
"..."
Suddenly, some of Li Yue's suitors began bombarding Ye Lang, leaving Ye Lang completely stunned...
"Is my face really that pale?" Ye Lang stared blankly at those people, then asked a question that made everyone cringe.
"Idiot, 'pretty boy' doesn't mean you have a fair complexion. It means you are... how do you explain this? It means you use your looks to please women and rely on them to support you..." Cold-Blooded Fifth immediately said.
"Oh, so that's what they were talking about. I thought it was because my makeup wasn't good." Ye Lang certainly knew what "pretty boy" meant, but he hadn't thought of it at the moment.
"Yeah, you're just a pretty boy!" Hearing Ye Lang say that, those people continued to belittle Ye Lang.
At this moment, Li Yue wanted to defend Ye Lang. She knew that Ye Lang wasn't that kind of person; otherwise, she wouldn't have been so close to Ye Lang.
"Yeah, I'm a gigolo. As long as Li Yue likes me, that's all that matters. Are you jealous? Are you envious? Are you hateful?" Ye Lang said shamelessly, but his words were also incredibly provocative.
Suddenly, those who were speaking fell silent!
"..." Li Yue wanted to laugh now. She felt that Ye Lang was deliberately trying to provoke these people, but in this kind of situation, she still needed to maintain some composure and couldn't just laugh like that, otherwise people would think she was very ill-mannered.
Actually, she was a little mistaken. Ye Lang wasn't trying to annoy her; he genuinely felt that things should be this way.
If Li Yue knew Ye Lang's identity, she wouldn't have any doubts. She would know that Ye Lang wasn't pretending to be confused to annoy people, but that he was genuinely confused.
"You..." At this moment, Li Yue's suitors were so angry that they couldn't speak. It was basically impossible to take action in this situation, so they had to use other methods.
Some people are quite clever; they go to Li Yue's relatives to deal with Ye Lang, which is much better than them doing it themselves.
"Brother Li, don't you think that pretty boy next to your sister is terrible? He's not good enough for your sister!" Someone approached Li Yan, who was having a lively conversation with a noble lady.
"Who cares if he's a good match or not? As long as my sister likes him, that's fine. It's better than her refusing to get married," Li Yan said nonchalantly, leaving the people around him somewhat stunned.
In fact, they didn't know that the Li Family had already begun to worry about Li Yue's marriage. With Li Yue's otherworldly appearance, she might stay in the Li Family for the rest of her life and never want to get married.
Whether for his sister's happiness or for his own inheritance rights, Li Yan wanted to marry Li Yue off. No matter who it was, as long as Li Yue liked him, there would be no problem.
If Li Yue stays at home, she might inherit the Li Family's estate, which is not Li Yan wants to see, and this is probably the biggest reason for his reaction.
"But if Miss Li Yue marries the wrong person, won't she suffer for the rest of her life?" someone nearby said.
"It's better to get married than not to get married at all. It's all your fault. So many people have been pursuing my sister, but none of them have succeeded. Now that one has finally come along, I'm telling you, I will absolutely give her my approval... give her my approval... damn it, you little fox..." Li Yan's approval was still incomplete when he looked at Ye Lang.
Although his motives were somewhat ulterior, he should at least be concerned about what his future brother-in-law would be like and what kind of person his sister would marry.
When he saw Ye Lang, his eyes began to shine—a light of hatred!
There's hope!!
At this moment, although they did not understand why Li Yan reacted this way, or why his eyes revealed hatred, none of that mattered. The person who came knew that Li Yan would definitely accomplish what he wanted.
Judging from Li Yan's behavior, he must know that pretty boy and even harbor some hatred towards him!
Just as he had guessed, Li Yan immediately dropped everything and rushed over, filled with intense anger, directly in front of Ye Lang.
"Damn it, it's you! You bastard, you actually dared to come to our Li Family and even tried to mess with my sister..."
Li Yan's sudden appearance drew everyone's attention to Ye Lang's side. Originally, it was just Ye Lang and Li Yue talking, which was not enough to attract everyone's attention. After all, it was just a matter between juniors.
The situation is different now. Li Yan's roar just now clearly had a story behind it. This young Fox Tribe Young Master has something bad going on, at least that's the impression Li Yan has.
"Who are you?" Ye Lang looked at Li Yan, somewhat puzzled. He couldn't recall who Li Yan was for a moment.
More than twenty days had passed since the incident at the Wind Flower Snow Moon Tower, and Ye Lang had long since "archived" the matter and put it out of his mind. It would take some time to retrieve this "archive."
"Go ahead and pretend, pretend you don't know me! That way you can deny that you've done those shameful things!!" Li Yan stared at Ye Lang, his eyes still burning with hatred, and he believed that Ye Lang was pretending not to know him.
In the current situation, it's best for Ye Lang to pretend he doesn't know Li Yan, because his connection with Li Yan is at the Wind Flower Snow Moon Tower. No matter what he does there, it will affect Li Yue's attitude towards him.
