A Random System Every Day - Chapter 54
Chapter 54: Why Are You My Husband?
Mu Qianxue felt weird. The moment she saw him, she immediately relaxed. Was it because of his good looks, or was it because he was her only friend who had been very helpful to her in the unfamiliar world she was currently in?
“You’re here,” Mu Qianxue said expressionlessly.
Ye Tianyi nodded, “Mm.” He looked at Xie Xiaofeng, smiled, and said, “Brother, did you mean what you said earlier? Everyone heard what you said, so don’t tell me you no longer mean it.”
“What did I say? Who are you?”
“Me? I’m her husband,” Ye Tianyi smiled and said.
Mu Qianxue’s expression did not change as she had no idea what a husband was, but the people around her were shocked.
“This beautiful woman has a husband! It’s only logical for a pretty girl like this to have many admirers.”
“Wow! This man is handsome. They look like a perfect match! It’s like they’re the hero and heroine from a TV series. Ah ah ah! Damn you! Wow! Zhang Yong, you’re a piece of shit, I want to break up with you!”
“He must be rich to be able to score a beautiful girl like that.”
“…”
The people around them were talking.
Xie Xiaofeng squinted at Ye Tianyi.
F*ck! This beautiful woman belonged to someone else! Damn it!
“Alright, the bill is five hundred and eighty thousand.”
Ye Tianyi was shocked. Sister, who could ever afford to feed you? 580 thousand for a meal? My 10 million would not even last a few weeks with you eating like this.
“Hey, hey, hey, what’s the rush? Are you not man enough to keep your word?”
“Of course, I meant what I said. What about it?” Xie Xiaofeng asked with dismay.
“Hey, how much is this bottle of beer?” Ye Tianyi asked someone beside him.
“Six bucks.”
“Here’s ten, keep the change.”
Ye Tianyi opened the bottle and poured beer into three glasses before he said, “A man must honor his words. You said if she had a drink with you, she wouldn’t have to pay for the bill, right?”
Xie Xiaofeng frowned.
“Everybody heard that right?”
“I recorded it!” a little girl shouted with all her might.
“Great! Uncle…no. Brother will buy you a big lollipop later.”
“Yay! Mommy, the brother will buy me a lollipop, I’ll share half of it with you, alright?”
The little girl’s mother nodded awkwardly.
Ye Tianyi passed a glass to Xie Xiaofeng and another to Mu Qianxue.
“Come, let’s have a toast. Here’s to you for being so generous! A generous boss is hard to find nowadays. I wish you all the best in your business!”
Ye Tianyi then turned to Mu Qianxue and said, “Wifey, down it.”
Mu Qianxue did as she was told.
“So generous! I’m impressed!”
Ye Tianyi patted Xie Xiaofeng on the back and sighed.
“Let’s go now, we’ll visit more in the future. Everybody, it’s time to go. The generous boss said we didn’t need to pay for the bill, so please come again.” Ye Tianyi and Mu Qianxue walked towards the door.
Xie Xiaofeng, “???”
“F*ck you…”
He did not manage to finish the sentence. He was stunned!
Damn! That idiot! There were so many people here, some that even recorded what had happened. As the boss of a five-star hotel, he could not take back his words. If he did, people would be mad at him. They would say he must have had a thing for the pretty girl…
“You just wait and see!”
Xie Xiaofeng finished the glass of beer and watched as Ye Tianyi left.
“Check him out.”
“Yes!”
…
Ye Tianyi heaved a deep sigh of relief, which was understandable. Who asked him to have dirty thoughts about Mu Qianxue? If Ye Tianyi did not extract Mu Qianxue from the situation, Xie Xiaofeng would not have lived to see another day. To a certain extent, 580 thousand in exchange for his life was worth it.
“Sister Fairy, that meal was too expensive,” Ye Tianyi said to her with some pain in his voice.
It was not that he did not want to buy her things. She had given him so many goodies which Ye Tianyi was grateful for, but he could not take it anymore if she were to do this every day.
“Was that a lot? You didn’t pay either, right?”
Ye Tianyi nodded. “Of course. That was just luck. He deserved it.”
“I know it must be a lot. I tried to give them divine medicine to pay the bill, but they said it was not enough.”
Ye Tianyi, “…”
What the f*ck?
They must not f*cking know what it was worth. Luckily they did not keep it, because those would have eventually belonged to Ye Tianyi.
“Next time, just give me a call if you need money. Don’t give them any of your things,” Ye Tianyi said.
“Why not? I don’t want to trouble you,” Mu Qianxue said softly.
She did not like troubling others unnecessarily. It did not matter if it was Ye Tianyi or someone else. It just made her feel weak.
This was because Ye Tianyi did not want her to give away any of her precious items. Those things belonged to him—they were all his! The divine medicine, weapons, spiritual weapons, and Mu Qianxue—he wanted all of it!
“Because…because honestly, these things are not valuable in the human world.”
Mu Qianxue frowned and said, “These are all precious items to martial artists. Why aren’t they valuable in the human world?”
She did not understand.
“In the human world, money is king. Money can buy you food, clothes, and a house, but divine medicine can’t get you anything, right? Why would they accept those things that are only useful for training?”
Mu Qianxue pondered for a while and thought maybe it made some sense.
But she also thought that something was not right.
Humans did not know what was what. They did not know how to value the valuables.
“Then why do you want them?”
“Me? It was fate that brought us together. I said that I’d take good care of you and I’m a man of my word. I’d give anything to fulfill my promise,” Ye Tianyi said with a serious face.
“Ding… Mu Qianxue’s favorability towards you +5;
“Ding… You’ve successfully tricked the chick. It is a scumbag behavior, Drag Points +100,000.”
She admired this man.
Ye Tianyi was afraid that she would kill him if she ever discovered the truth.
“Earlier, you said you’re my husband. What does that mean?” Mu Qianxue asked softly after remembering what he said earlier.
