Chapter 729: No Point Asking!
“We went to town b-because…”
Yet Ye Mo could not think of a good excuse as he stuttered, stealing glances at Ye Liu in the hopes that his elder brother could save him!
Ye Ling seemed to be even more concerned than Liu Duo this time, as he probed further, “Mo, what’s going on?”
Ye Mo suddenly felt like he had a headache when Ling insisted on getting to the bottom of his case. When did he become so nosey?
Ye Liu unloaded everything from the cart and was just about to help him out when Liu Duo playfully exclaimed, “Ling, let’s not egg them. They can go to town as many times as they want, as long as they aren’t there to visit the brothel and forget about work. We don’t have to know everything.”
In other words: Even if they went, they wouldn’t tell us, would there? There’s no point asking!
At the mention of a brothel, Li Wazi went red quickly and said, “Liu Duo, don’t assume anything. We didn’t go to the brothel. We really didn’t!”
Ye Liu and Ye Mo smacked themselves. Why was he overcompensating? He was acting like they had really gone there.
Unfortunately, Little Lian happened to walk out of the kitchen carrying Little Huzi, and her husband’s words shocked her.
The brothel?
Ye Liu was about to speak when Little Lian came forward. “Honey, d-did you really go there?”
She was stuttering. The news came so suddenly, leaving her overwhelmed. She could not believe her frank and honest husband would seek pleasure there because they were a little richer now.
The gang all looked over at Little Lian, eyes already welling up in tears.
“No! No, I didn’t! Dear, you have to listen to me, I didn’t go to any brothels. You have to believe me,” Li Wazi urgently explained, afraid of causing a misunderstanding.
Ye Liu did not want anyone speaking ahead of him again, so once Li Wazi finished his statement, he said, “Little Duo, look at what you just said! How could we possibly go to a filthy place like that?”
Based on his choice of words, the level of disgust he held towards that place was obvious. Otherwise, how could they have stayed virgins before meeting Liu Duo? After all, he used to wander on the streets with the other men.
“It would be bad if Little Lian fell out with Li Wazi because of this. Don’t simply joke about it,” Ye Liu said as he came to Liu Duo’s side, draped an arm across her shoulder and blew in her ear, whispering, “With a precious gem like you in the house, how could Mo and I ever go to a brothel? Unless…”
He just smirked at her, stopping at a cliffhanger.
Liu Duo shrugged her neck and faced him, “Unless what?”
In her mind, she was rolling her eyes. Damn you, can you finish your sentence, please? Rascal!
Ye Liu grinned broadly at her follow-up question. He shook his head. “Not telling you now. Later.”
Ye Mo looked at them talking and told Little Lian, “Sister Lian, don’t listen to what Liu Duo said. Li Wazi wouldn’t dare go to a brothel. If he does, the four of us will be the first ones to beat him up!”
Despite all that, Li Wazi’s mind seemed to have hit a stumbling block. He did not get why they were talking about him visiting a brothel. He had never thought about it at all!
Ye Ling did not expect his random question could cause such a stir.
He looked at Little Lian who was almost in tears and said, “Sister Lian, you should believe in Brother Li. He wouldn’t go to that kind of place.”
