Chapter 999: Fetish

For those who made a living off boldly collecting ‘rent’ from vendors every month, they could obviously tell that Ye Liu was exercising flattery!

However, the trick worked really well on San Ye!

He absolutely loved hearing those words!

San Ye grinned. “Naturally! Why would I have anything against her?”

It was then that he carefully observed the three men in front of him. When his eyes fell on Ye Ling, his squinting eyes flickered.

Ye Liu might have looked extraordinarily handsome, but everybody had different standards when it came to beauty.

For example, San Ye had a distinct preference for someone like Ye Ling. The young man matched the profile of the fair and fragile scholar!

In other words, in a rather twisted manner, San Ye had a fetish for the same s.e.x!

When the old woman heard him say that, she quickly accepted the string of coins and handed thirty wen to one of his subordinates.

A chicken did not cost that much, so she grabbed another hen from her basket and, along with the first one, pa.s.sed the poultry to Ye Yang and Ye Ling.

“Take these two. One chicken isn’t worth fifty wen.”

She was very grateful to them for helping out, but she was not one for greed.

Ye Ling glanced at Ye Yang, wondering if they should accept.

They had previously just bought a hen. Adding these two would make three. What would they do with them? This was not home. They could not eat that much in one go and they had no place to keep them.

Ye Liu, who had been paying great attention to San Ye’s mood changes, noticed the way the older man was eyeing Ye Ling. Quickly, without causing alarm, he stepped between them, blocking the older man’s sight.

“Yang, Ling, we’ve bought the hens for the stew. We should go back.”

The way San Ye looked at Ye Ling was similar to the way Burly Du looked at Ye Liu himself. Therefore, Ye Liu deduced that San Ye was into men!

Naturally, he would not want to stay any longer!

Ye Liu made a grab for the hens his brothers were still indecisive about taking.

Ye Yang might be a man of few words, but he noticed the changes in his brother’s behavior.

He peered sideways at the plus-sized San Ye and found that the man had his sights set on Ye Ling, looking sleazy.

Ye Yang slightly frowned at his observation.

Ye Ling did not understand why they were in a rush to leave, so he inquired some more. “Liu, but we haven’t bought the ingredients for the stew.”

They could not make stew with chicken alone!

Despite Ye Ling’s befuddlement, Ye Yang opened his mouth faster than Ye Liu could speak. “Go back!”

If they stayed any longer, they would have to keep dealing with this San Ye, and that would not be good!

Ye Liu had a hen in each hand. He could not walk with Ye Ling. Ye Yang held with one hand the chicken they had previously bought, so he took Ye Ling by the arm with his other free hand.

Still confused, Ye Ling obeyed Ye Yang nonetheless and walked away with his brothers.

San Ye quickly approached them as they took their leave. “Dear sirs, may I know where you all come from, and how long you will be staying in the capital? I’m a local, born and bred. I’d be happy to show you around the many streets of the capital and other places of interest for free.”

Ye Yang did not even spare a cold glance at him, while Ye Liu put on a mirthless grin as he peered at the man without giving a response.
