Ye Ling found the man extremely unpleasant too, after having clearly witnessed his cruel behavior just now.
They were strangers to him, so Ye Ling could not figure out why the man extended the invitation to them so enthusiastically.
Ye Ling naturally did not bother with him. He merely gave San Ye a sideways glance out of curiosity.
San Ye, who had been eyeing Ye Ling in the first place, felt the younger man looking back at him. He grinned broadly, showing off his big yellow teeth, presenting to Ye Ling what he thought was a friendly face.
Yet Ye Ling felt nothing but disgust.
He seemed to have gathered why his brothers were in a rush to leave. Very soon, he picked up his pace as well.
It was then that San Ye discovered Ye Ling was different from common folk. He walked with a bump in his steps!
San Ye sighed. What a pity, why must he be a cripple?
As he thought about it, he began to slow down, gradually creating a distance between himself and the three men.
“San Ye, the young man may be a cripple, but nobody’s perfect after all,” one of the subordinates said, licking his face.
As a subordinate, he knew his master’s preference like the back of his own hand, otherwise he would not fit the job profile, would he?
The other subordinate also agreed. “Exactly! San Ye, haven’t you realized? That young man is fairer and much more tender than Little Qing Er. He’s even much more attractive by a mile.”
Little Qing Er was one of the men working in the male brothel.
San Ye’s lustful desires for Ye Ling when he first laid eyes on him happened to rekindle after much talk from his two subordinates.
“Follow them. Find out which inn they’re staying at. Report to me later.” San Ye stopped in his tracks and spoke as he watched the three figures leave.
Rent was due today, and he still had more vendors to visit.
“Consider it done!” the skinnier subordinate said before launching his pursuit.
The three brothers were on their way to the inn when Ye Yang suddenly exclaimed, “We’re being followed!”
Ye Yang had developed a particularly strong perception after hunting in the hills for so many years. He could quickly sense that they were being followed.
Ye Liu and Ye Ling frowned, knowing who it was.
“Yang, you take Ling back to the inn. I’ll buy the ingredients for the stew.”
Ye Liu passed one hen to Ye Yang, the other to Ye Ling.
He could not let the person behind them know where they were staying. It could lead to troublesome consequences.
Ye Yang could tell what Ye Liu was up to.
So when Ye Liu passed the hen to him, he did not accept. Rather, he handed Ye Ling the one which he himself had been holding.
“I’ll go!”
Once he said that, Ye Yang shoved the hen into Ye Ling’s grasp and marched towards the skinny subordinate.
Ye Liu said nothing more, and led Ye Ling back to the inn.
The skinny subordinate noticed Ye Yang coming his way, while Ye Liu and Ye Ling headed somewhere else. He promptly decided to pursue the two men.
He had not ventured far when Ye Yang directly blocked his path.
“Why. Are. You. Following. Us!” Ye Yang confronted the skinny subordinate sternly.
He had no time for idle banter!
Er…
The skinny subordinate could feel the icy coldness coming from this man!
The scar on his face made him seem much fiercer.
Stupefied by Ye Yang’s appearance and imposing manner, the skinny subordinate was instantly tongue-tied!
