Chapter 39: No More Familiar Faces in the Familiar Places!

His menacing aura had cooled the living room’s temperature down, and a surge of chilly air had enveloped the three people present.

They sensed the perilous air around them, and they whispered in their hearts, ‘What’s this scary and menacing aura coming from Grandmaster Ye?’

‘Did we accidentally offend him?’

Old Zhu could not hold it in any longer. “Mr. Ye, you...” He croaked as if trying to get Ye Chen back from his trance.

When Ye Chen realized that in front of him were three people with horrified expressions, he quickly regained his composure and apologized, “Old Zhu, are you alright? Don’t mind me, I just had a sudden recollection of things…”

Old Zhu waved his hand, took a few deep breaths and then said, “Mr. Ye, the day’s getting late. The three of us won’t take up any more of your time. In a few days, we’ll send someone to come and fetch you to the auction. Farewell.”

Old Zhu was too scared to stay another minute in that place. Who knew what the young guy in front of him would do?

Ye Chen nodded his head and watched the three of them leave.

After that, he stared at the medicinal herbs in front of his eyes as he wondered what his next course of action should be.

Without an alchemic stove, refining medicinal pills and elixirs were too troublesome. It seemed to him that the only way he could absorb what he needed was through those medicinal herbs in water.

The results would be similar to using medicinal pills and elixirs, albeit not as good.

...

When night time came, Ye Chen’s stomach grumbled. Hence, he left Great Tomson and went back to Grand City Apartments.

He was most probably not going to stay at the huge deserted place alone.

When he opened the door of the apartment, he realized that Sun Yi was not back yet.

He tried to make a few phone calls to Sun Yi with the landline at home to ask what was going on but none of the calls went through.

“What’s that girl up to? Why didn’t she say anything to me? Did something happen at home? If I can’t reach her, I’ll go straight to town to find her.”

When they were seatmates previously, Ye Chen had in fact been to Sun Yi’s place. At that time, when Sun Yi was being teased by hooligans at the entrance of the school, Ye Chen went straight for them with a brick. When he thought about the incident, it could have been Chu Shuran’s taunt that had piqued him to do such things.

Naturally, the hooligans were afraid of the ruthless Ye Chen, so they covered their heads and fled immediately. However, Ye Chen got injured during the fight.

Since he did not want to worry his parents, Ye Chen had decided to stay over at Sun Yi’s that night.

Although he could not pinpoint the exact location since the incident had happened five years ago, he could find it if he looked carefully.

When he looked back, Sun Yi had put off everything just to help him plan his parents’ funeral. He thought that maybe it was true love since then.

“Forget it, I’ll just not have any of Sun Yi’s wonderful dishes tonight. I’ll just go out and eat, it’s not like I’m poor or anything.”

Ye Chen closed the door behind him and walked off.

He circled the nearby places to see what sort of food they had, but he was not interested in any of them. He was not trying to be picky or anything. However, since he had been pampered by Sun Yi’s food throughout the past few days, it was hard to like any of the dull and boring choices the restaurants provided.

Suddenly, he thought of something. He hailed a taxi and went southward.

He vaguely remembered that when he was in high school, he often went to a food stall. When he thought about the food there, he could not help but drool!

Since he frequented it, he got to know the couples’ son, Wang Yuheng.

Wang Yuheng had been schoolmates with Ye Chen previously. When the entire school heard that Ye Chen was useless, Wang Yuheng was the only person who continued to befriend him.

He was one of the few friends Ye Chen had at that time.

When the taxi arrived at the place, Ye Chen took a long breath when he saw the food stall. It was usual for places to stay unchanged despite the people who were previously there being gone. He was worried that the only place he still cared for had nobody left after five years.

As Ye Chen approached the food stall, he realized that Wang Yuheng was not there but his parents were there instead.

He could not figure out why there were no customers around. From what he remembered, their food stall business was always booming and on fire.

Ye Chen found a table and sat down. In his line of sight, he saw a notice that said the food stall was moving and that it was their last day there.

What surprised Ye Chen was that they were moving to the alley of an old street.

How could that place compare to this place’s customer traffic? This place has at least ten times more customer traffic than there!

Ye Chen did not think too much about it and asked, “Uncle Wang, I’ll have some signature BBQ skewers!”

Five years ago, Uncle Wang and Aunt Zhang would prepare a mountain of BBQ skewers and a bottle of Sprite for him every time he said that. Those were Ye Chen’s most enjoyable memories.

Evidently, Uncle Wang and Aunt Zhang were not expecting customers at such an hour. Uncle Wang glanced at Ye Chen, but he did not seem to recognize him.

Aunt Zhang looked around as if she was afraid of something. Anxiously, she walked toward Ye Chen and said, “Kiddo, uh… we’re moving stalls today. We’re almost closing now, why don’t you head on over to somewhere else to eat?”

Ye Chen furrowed his brows and he asked, astonished, “Aunt Zhang, it’s only 6 o’clock in the evening. Business should be starting just about now. Why are you guys closing early?”

“Yeah… you’re right, kiddo. Just head on over to somewhere else. If you really want to eat our food, you can support us by bringing some of your friends over to our new spot. We’re opening tomorrow and everything is fifty percent off,” Aunt Zhang said as she pointed toward the notice.

Ye Chen could sense that something was wrong. He noticed that some parts of Aunt Zhang’s face and hands were bruised, it was as if she had been beaten up by someone.

He looked over at Uncle Wang who was smoking at the side. ‘The two of them love each other. It can’t be domestic violence.’

When Uncle Wang saw Ye Chen staring at him, he limped over with a crutch. “Kiddo, we’ve been interrogated a lot lately so business has been slow. I’ll cut you a deal. Since you really want to eat some, I’ll make some for you, but you have to finish them within five minutes. We really have to close up soon. It’s been five years. To be frank, we wouldn’t leave this place if we hadn’t been forced to,” Uncle Wang said desolately.

After he was done talking to Ye Chen, he turned around and then walked toward the mobile food stall.

After a while, Uncle Wang served Ye Chen a few sticks of BBQ skewers and side dishes on a tray. He also brought Ye Chen a bottle of drink.

“You’re the last customer for me and my wife’s food stall, so you can have this or free. Here you go.”

Ye Chen was ready to devour his food when he suddenly felt that something was amiss. When he glanced over at the end of the street, he saw someone with a menacing grin.

“They’re here.”
