Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 902: Chapter 902: News Arrives (Third Update)

When it was just the master and servant left in the room.

Xue An lightly scraped the tip of the dazed Chan’er’s nose with his hand and said with a smile, ”What’s the matter? Disappointed you weren’t sold by this young master?”

As soon as he finished speaking.

Ye Xiaochan suddenly lunged forward, embracing Xue An tightly and burying her head in his chest as she burst into uncontrollable sobs.

Xue An’s body stiffened, and then he sighed inwardly.

Yan’er, I haven’t done anything to wrong you.

In fact, towards Chan’er.

Xue An always treated her with the attitude one might have towards a daughter.

After all, this little girl was only a few years older than his own daughter.

At that moment, Chan’er spoke between sobs, ”Young master... I... I really thought you were going to sell me! Chan’er was so scared at that time!”

Xue An chuckled silently and then patted Chan’er’s shoulder, ”There, there, no more crying! How could I possibly sell you?”

Finally, with Xue An’s reassurance, Chan’er gradually calmed down.

And because a huge weight was lifted from her heart, this little girl felt incredibly happy, her face beaming with joy.

How wonderful!

She did not have to be sold, and she could continue to serve as the young master’s little maid.

For this simple-minded little girl, this was the happiest thing in the world.

However, she still felt a bit confused, ”But young master, about that silver...”

This little girl was deeply concerned, fearing that her young master might again befall trouble because of that silver.

Seeing her worry, Xue An couldn’t help but laugh, ”Don’t worry, there won’t be any problem with that silver, and moreover...”

Xue An’s gaze flickered, ”In a little while, that Store Manager Yang will be crying and begging to return the silver to us!”

What Xue An said was true, the silver would indeed not cause any problems.

Because those who could have been a potential problem had all been killed by him.

But Chan’er was unaware of this, and found herself completely baffled.

How could that be possible?

How could the greedy Shopkeeper Yang possibly return the silver he had obtained?

It sounded utterly fantastical.

But she dared not ask.

Because she had noticed that since his serious illness, her young master had changed completely.

Not only had his behavior become much more domineering, but he also acquired a certain quality.

This quality made it seem as if, the moment he smiled, there was nothing in the world that could trouble him, instilling an inexplicable sense of security in others.

So Chan’er stopped thinking about those mind-draining matters.

Who cares! As long as the young master says it’s all right, then it must be all right!

While the master and servant were chatting leisurely in the room.

Yang Zelin returned to the front courtyard with a grim expression, carrying twenty taels of silver.

Yang Yue was anxiously waiting at the front, her heart tightening the moment she saw her father return.

She certainly knew what her father had gone to do in the back.

Although she felt deeply sympathetic.

Squashed by the weight of familial duty, she could only watch silently, powerless to help.

This caused her immense pain and conflict, and that’s why she was so restless, almost to the point of being beside herself.

But just then, she noticed something was amiss.

Because her father’s face was ashen, entirely lacking the joyous air he had upon leaving.

What happened?

Could there have been some incident?

Yang Yue’s heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly went to meet him.

”Father, what happened?”

At this moment, Yang Zelin’s face was extremely ugly, filled with burning rage.

Therefore, when he saw his daughter’s earnest gaze, he couldn’t help but let the anger consume him, and he raised his hand and delivered a slap.

Yang Yue staggered from the slap, and then covered her face, ”Father...”

”Hmph! A traitor, sympathizing with that lowly maid, weren’t you? Now, are you satisfied with how things turned out?” Yang Zelin barked ferociously.

Although a bit aggrieved, because she had been hit often, Yang Yue didn’t find it too upsetting, but after hearing her father’s words, she felt utterly confused.

”Father, what are you talking about? I don’t understand...”

”Hmph!” Yang Zelin pulled out the ingot of silver and slammed it down onto the counter.

”See? That worthless-looking Xue An actually did bring out twenty taels of silver!”

What?

Yang Yue was also stunned.

She had never expected such a dramatic twist in the event.

In Yang Yue’s eyes, Xue An was merely using Chan’er to bet and thereby escape his predicament.

That was why she looked down on Xue An with such disdain.

But now, the development of the situation was like a loud slap in her face, leaving her unable to find her bearings.

Although her face felt scorched with pain, deep inside Yang Yue’s heart was filled with relief and joy.

No matter what, that pitiful and endearing young maid seemed to be saved from falling into evil clutches.

However, at that moment, Yang Zelin said with a sinister tone, ”I underestimated that Xue An, but does he really think this is the end of it? That young maid... she’s the one Master Chen took a fancy to, after all!”

Hearing this, Yang Yue’s heart tightened once again.

Yes!

In this city, the Chen Family’s word was law, who would dare defy it?

Even if Xue An paid the silver now, would Master Chen just let it go and spare Chan’er?

Yang Yue’s heart was once again consumed by anxious gloom.

And Yang Zelin’s face was marked by a sly grin.

Because he had figured it out.

No matter what, both master and servant wouldn’t be able to leave this city.

And for himself, wasn’t it an unexpected delight to have gained an extra ingot of silver?

Thinking this, he began to examine the ingot of silver carefully.

Hmm! No mistake, it’s definitely genuine silver, not a single error!

Yang Zelin was feeling increasingly smug.

But just then –

A shop assistant ran in with a face full of alarm.

”Shop... Shopkeeper, there’s... there’s been a terrible accident!”

Yang Zelin’s expression darkened, ”Idiot, it’s early morning and we’ve just opened the shop, why are you howling like you’re announcing a death? You’ll lose a day’s wages!”

Shopkeeper Yang was very superstitious.

Especially now, just after opening, this shop assistant was panicking and talking about some disaster; it was an ill omen.

But the shop assistant seemed to not hear Yang Zelin’s scolding at all, trembling all over, even his teeth chattering with excessive fear.

”Shop... Shopkeeper, the Chen... Chen Family...”

”What happened to the Chen Family?” Yang Zelin leisurely picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.

Then he heard the shop assistant say in a trembling voice, ”The Chen Family... Someone from the Chen Family is dead!”

Yang Zelin frowned, ”Idiot, did you start drinking early in the morning? What do you mean ’someone from the Chen Family is dead’? Do you realize if someone from the Chen Family hears this, your life wouldn’t be worth saving?”
