Departure and Return (2)
I believe that Seventh Brother isn't the only one who would be happy to see Ye Lang return; the others feel the same way, as they all have many questions for Ye Lang.
Therefore, even if Ye Lang returns, he may not have a peaceful life. At least not for a while. He will still be surrounded and pursued by people.
However, Ye Lang wasn't too bothered by being surrounded and intercepted by these people, because they were all his own people, unlike the ones he had encountered in Dragon City before.
At the same time, Ye Lang also knew that his group could only stay for a short period of time. Once their demands were met, they would naturally disperse. This was another place different from those in Dragon City.
"They must have been delayed on the way. Tell someone to keep an eye out and report to us immediately if Ye Lang is spotted!" Ye Chengtian said in a deep voice. "Alright, everyone go and rest now. I'll go take care of things from the past few days!"
After returning to Ye City, Ye Chengtian also needed to deal with the things he had put aside for so many days. Although he had entrusted others to help him look after the previous matters, there were still some things that he needed to handle himself.
And so, everyone went about their own business. They could only keep tabs on Ye Lang's whereabouts and couldn't do anything else.
Some people suspect that Ye Lang may have run into trouble again. Even with the Seventh Princess and the others as a safeguard, this possibility cannot be ruled out, because Ye Lang has never been a cause for concern.
Seven days later, when Ye Lang appeared in Ye City, this doubt dissipated!
Ye Lang didn't get lost or anything happened this time. It was just because they weren't in a hurry and took their time. Ye Chengtian and the others were in a rush, so even though they were allowed to set off two days earlier, they were still seven days behind Ye Chengtian and the others.
There was a nine-day difference in time! I don't know how Ye Lang and his group managed to do that; their leisurely pace is astonishing!
After returning to Ye City, Ye Lang expressed many feelings about the changes in Ye City. When he left Ye City, it was still under expansion, but now, although it was still under expansion, the changes had exceeded his imagination.
Today's Yecheng is as big as any big city, but before, it was just a small city. The difference is conceivable. Anyone will feel the same as Ye Lang!!
"Wow..." Ye Lang exclaimed "Wow" again, seemingly seeing yet another change that made him feel the need to make this sound. Since entering the city, he had lost count of how many times he had exclaimed "Wow".
"Wow! Wow my foot!!" A very annoyed voice came from a girl not far in front of Ye Lang. This girl stood domineeringly in the middle of the road, blocking Ye Lang's way.
In this Ye City, there are not many people who dare to block Ye Lang's path, and the girl in front of him is definitely one of those few.
"Wow... Sister..." Ye Lang exclaimed as he looked at the girl.
"..."
This girl was none other than Ye Lang's older sister, Ye Lanyu. She had already received the news when Ye Lang approached Ye City and ran over as fast as she could.
When she arrived, Ye Lang was exclaiming "Wow!" everywhere, looking like a country bumpkin in the city. This made Ye Lanyu want to laugh, but she was more annoyed than anything else.
Especially when Ye Lanyu saw the Seventh Princess's expression beside Ye Lang, she was very displeased!
In Ye Lanyu's eyes, the Seventh Princess's expression seemed to say, "Hehe, I've had a very comfortable journey with Ye Lang. How have you been doing on your own?" "I'm alright!"
The reason why the Seventh Princess didn't tell Ye Lanyu back then was also because of this; they were always rivals, and they still are now.
If she could get rid of Ye Lanyu, the Seventh Princess would definitely do it!
"Still?!" Ye Lanyu smacked Ye Lang in annoyance.
"Sister, what are you doing here?" Ye Lang touched the spot where he had been knocked on and asked in a daze.
"Why can't I be here? It's perfectly normal for me to be here. It's you who's abnormal! Tell me, why did you come back this time?" Ye Lanyu said, grabbing Ye Lang and separating the Seventh Princess and the others.
Now it's my turn, and I won't let you continue!
"I came back to do some things and also to see everyone. I miss you all! Especially Seventh Brother..." Ye Lang said with a smile. His last sentence was a bit strange. When would Ye Lang miss Seventh Brother? It seemed impossible.
And soon, everyone understood that it was because—
"Ahem! Thirteen, when did you learn to flatter? But, saying that makes me, Seventh Brother, feel quite comfortable." Seventh Brother, standing not far away, said with great enjoyment. However, he knew that this enjoyment was not easy to accept, because if Ye Lang did this, he must have had an ulterior motive.
However, he decided to enjoy the experience first, since he figured he couldn't refuse Ye Lang's request, so there was no point in figuring it out.
Besides, since Ye Lang has already spoken, it doesn't matter to me whether I agree or not.
"As long as you're comfortable! Hehe..." Ye Lang said with a smile, but the way he smiled wasn't very positive, and it was obvious that he had something on his mind.
"Speak, what do you want me to do?" Seventh Brother asked directly at this moment. Looking at Ye Lang's smile, he felt that he was about to get a headache.
"Ah, Seventh Brother is indeed Seventh Brother, he can even see that!" Ye Lang looked surprised.
"Who doesn't know you? You're always so eager to please, you're either up to no good!" Seventh Brother said irritably. Others might be trying to build a good relationship by being helpful, but Ye Lang is different; he definitely has an ulterior motive.
"How can you say that? I'm not a villain or a thief. I just asked you to purchase some materials!" Ye Lang said.
"... Is it really that simple, just purchasing materials?" Seventh Brother was taken aback. Purchasing things was something he could easily handle; it was no problem at all.
This matter seemed too simple to Seventh Brother, and he found it somewhat unbelievable.
"Yes, it's that simple. How difficult do you think it is?" Ye Lang nodded.
"Wait, tell me what you want to buy and show me the list!" Seventh Brother was still on guard; he felt that Ye Lang couldn't be that simple.
"Here you go!" Ye Lang handed a list to Seventh Brother.
"..." At this moment, Seventh Brother was certain that this matter was really just about purchasing materials.
Simple? Take a look at this list first. It's not wrong to buy materials, but this list is too long. Not only are there a lot of items, but some of them are things you've never heard of before.
