As the Minor Gay Rival in Het Novels

Chapter 6.7



Chapter 6.7

Coming back to the Gusu Young Master, the current situation was that in his haste to make that pearl carp dish, he had taken over the entire kitchen and even chased the cook away, wholeheartedly devoting himself to studying the recipe.

This dish wasnt difficult to make as there werent many steps, but it wasnt that easy to make it taste good. He attempted the dish several times, but he wasnt satisfied. The fish was definitely cooked, but the flavour was always off it was either too salty or too bland. No matter how he tried, he just couldnt find the perfect balance.

In the end, he had no choice but to let the master chef in to seek his guidance.

On the other hand, Fan Yuan had been pulled along by Gao Sui and Xiao Ziyun. Thats right, these two living treasures slept for a while before energetically going about to meddle in matters again, and of course, they gave very good reasons.

When we visit other peoples houses, we have to pay respects to the owner of the house and express our appreciation. We cant just eat and drink for free. These were Xiao Ziyuns original words.

Fan Yuan didnt care about this. Anyway, he was just a soy sauce king in the plot. Things would be fine as long as he followed behind them and watched, not letting any accidents happen. The only thing that bothered him was his characters personality. Thats right, in the story where he played the main role, Bai Yuans personality was finally uncovered in detail. It turned out that Bai Yuan was very bright and considerate in front of his two brothers, and even pretended to be all pure and naive.

Fan Yuan was rendered speechless, naive? Could anyone be more naive than the two fools in front of him? Two were genuinely naive while the other was pretending to be, how in the world did they explore the Jianghu?

As the three exited the yard, Gao Sui casually stopped a passing servant and asked, Hey, where is your Young Master?

He was wearing a silver mask, and due to the fact that his throat was damaged, his voice was so hoarse that it sounded like he was a demon from hell, not to mention that his black irises carried a murderous quality. The little servant thought that he saw a ghost in the bright daylight and his face turned completely white with fear, his legs shaking as he moved back as if to run away. He finally replied with a trembling voice, Young Master, Young Master, he is in the kitchen

Fan Yuan felt sorry for the child. Indeed, the man looks like a villain, but my little friend, you gave away information about your Young Master without even hesitating! Youre too spineless!

He heard Gao Sui question again, Which way to the kitchen?

Almost as if the child had heard Fan Yuans voice, this time, he shut his mouth and refused to speak, and from the looks of it, tears were welling at the corners of his eyes, threatening to fall. Gao Sui was at a loss, not knowing what he had done wrong. Fan Yuan couldnt bear to watch any longer, so he pulled Gao Suis sleeve and signalled for him to follow.

This little brother, dont be afraid, we arent bad people. We are friends of your Young Master whom he invited over to visit. Seeing the boys look of disbelief, Fan Yuan pointed to the courtyard not far away, Thats the courtyard that Brother Gusu arranged for us. We need to go out and buy some gifts to maintain proper etiquette when we meet the Master. Please help us pass the word to him, so that he wont get worried when he cant find us.

The servants of the Gusu family were all aware that the Young Master had invited several guests over. In addition, Fan Yuans appearance was good, so the little servant no longer felt afraid. His little rabbit-like eyes reddened and he nodded after a moment of hesitation, Yes, this little one remembers. This little one will inform Young Master.

From the side, Xiao Ziyun stared at Fan Yuans delicate face as he talked to a half-grown child in a gentle voice. Although there was no obvious expression on his face, Xiao Ziyun could detect his underlying patience and tenderness. It wasnt the same as his reserved behaviour from before, but it was still very charming. As those thoughts popped up, her face reddened subconsciously.

Xiao Wus voice suddenly rang, Ding, the female leads favour has increased by 5 points again.

Fan Yuan: &#k2026;&#k2026;&#k2026;&#k2026;

If it wasnt for Xiao Wus &#k2018;again, he would have forgotten the fangirl nature of the female lead!

&#kUU03;A girl must be more restrained!&#kUU03;

&#kUU03;Male lead, youre wearing a green hat again, you know?&#kUU03;

Laozi is an attached man now!!

Once again, Fan Yuan raised his guard against the female lead. Her favour for him increased even if he simply walked a few rounds in front of her. If he did that seven or eight times a day, her favour would be maxed out in minutes! Dont make it so easy to steal the male leads thunder!

His heart felt incomparably stifled, but he couldnt go OOC. He could only maintain his smile and thank the servant, before turning around to say, Brother Gao, that little brother will help us send word to Brother Gusu.

Gao Sui nodded, but his expression was not very good. Fan Yuan also knew that Gao Sui was quite insecure about his appearance. He used to be the son of the Wulin Alliances leader, and during that time, he was extremely handsome and charming. Everywhere he went, he would be flattered endlessly. But now, he has fallen to such a state, no one could really accept such a psychological gap.

However, at the end of this story, the female lead would help him treat his wound and recover to his original appearance. But as for his voice, there was no way to help.

Thinking to himself that he should be a considerate brother, he sincerely said, Brother Gao doesnt have to worry. A superficial thing such as looks is impermanent. There will come a day when everyone turns old and declines, none of us can be eternally youthful and beautiful. A hundred years later, all that will be left of us are a bunch of bones. However, what will stay is Brother Gaos chivalrous nature that is the most special thing.

Everyone likes to be praised by others, and naturally, Gao Sui was really happy to hear that. Watching from the side, Xiao Ziyun realized that she had ignored Gao Suis feelings and quickly started to speak words of comfort. The three started chatting about all sorts of trivial matters and eventually left this matter in the past.

Xiao Ziyun thought in her heart that one day, she would try to develop a medicine which would cure the scar on Gao Suis face.

Exiting the Gusu manor, Fan Yuan casually asked, What do Brother Gao and Brother Xiao want to buy?

The two of them pondered for a while, then Xiao Ziyun said, I havent decided yet, butwe can walk around and we should be able to get some ideas from there. In response to this, Gao Sui nodded repeatedly.

Fan Yuan was amused. He guessed that the two people didnt have a plan, living one day at a time, and it turned out that he was right.

He said, I have a suggestion. I heard that Old Master Gusu has long loved famous antiques and superior tea. Why dont we move separately? You two can go find the antiques, Ill go to the tea house in the outskirts to buy fresh tea leaves. This can save time.

But Gao Sui said, No, I dont agree.

Fan Yuans eye twitched, no, my ass! Laozi is creating opportunities for you two to interact alone. Your wife fancies me now, you know!

Gao Sui explained, The tea house is too far away and there lies a sparsely populated forest along the way. Occasionally, strong experts will pass through that forest. Im really worried about you, Brother Bai. How about I go to the city outskirts with Brother Xiao. At least with two, we can watch each others backs. You can search for the famous antiques in the city.

Xiao Ziyun agreed, Brother Gao is right. Besides, I dont know anything about antiques, but I have some knowledge regarding tea. Brother Bai, you can stay in the city.

Fan Yuan thought there were many interesting things in the city that were beneficial in cultivating their feelings for each other, as compared to trekking through mountains and forests. He had already tried his best to be a good matchmaker, but these two people didnt know how to appreciate his good intentions. Moreover, he found that he couldnt refute them at all. Such a logical argument didnt conform to the personalities of the male and female lead!!

He silently swallowed the mouthful of blood that was threatening to pour out and said with a smile, Alright, lets do it that way then. You two should go quickly and return early

The three of them parted ways, leaving Fan Yuan to wander around the city alone. In fact, for him, choosing antiques wasnt a problem at all. Even without Xiao Wu by his side, he was still alright at identifying the age and value of artifacts. If he took Xiao Wu along for stone gambling, he would easily be able to make a fortune and reach the peak of life.

But the thing was, money was useless to him.

In the end, he selected a blood-red jade ruyi. A thing like this could be considered precious, but it wasnt top-grade. Nonetheless, no gift could be better than giving an elder a symbol of auspiciousness. However, to Fan Yuan, there was only one good aspect of the ruyi it was quite lightweight, so he wouldnt get tired carrying it around.

After paying with silver taels, he sat in the VIP room of the antique trading house to enjoy some tea and snacks. He intended to return to the Gusu manor a bit later so as to not get entangled with Young Master Gusu.

Just as he was eating happily, he suddenly perceived an extremely familiar voice.

When shall we go back? I heard that Eldest Brother has already given up. If we go on, things will become even messier.

A cold female voice lightly went hmph, What are you in a hurry for? Last month, I got a set of mutton fat jade jewellery customised here. Help me take a look if it looks nice.

The man echoed her sentiments, My wife is born beautiful, she looks good in everything.

Fan Yuan listened quietly, only to see a man and a woman enter. The woman had a graceful figure, a coldly elegant appearance and a cold murderous air within her eyes. Only when she looked at the man beside her, her cold aura would melt a little.

Fan Yuan stood up suddenly, his eyes locked onto the man. He didnt think much at first, but his face and voice.he would never recognise it wrongly. This man was the first person he saw after his death.

Those complicated eyes that the man had as he gazed at him at that time had been deeply engraved into his memory, and though thousands of years had passed, he had never forgotten.

The two men noticed that there was some movement and looked at Fan Yuan. They all seemed surprised. The woman slightly raised her eyebrows and said, Old Bai, you know them?

The man named Old Bai laughed, What a coincidence, he is an old friend.

Fan Yuan frowned and said nothing. From what he remembered, he didnt think that he and this person could be considered friends. At most, this person was a senior who led him into this world.

With a hint of hostility in his tone, he minced out each word one at a time, Long time no see, Bai Xi.

Bai Xi didnt mind his rudeness, simply chuckling, Youve changed a lot. At that time, you were even grateful to me, calling me senior, senior. Now, did you come to some kind of revelation?

Fan Yuan clenched his fist, but his expression was cold, even carrying hints of a smile at the corners of his mouth. He walked closer and asked in a low voice, Im not sure how Senior Bai Xi has tampered with my memory?

The woman by his side frowned and looked at Bai Xi, What memory? Why dont I know about this?

Bai Xi directed a placating smile towards her and told her to wait first. He turned to Fan Yuan, looking as if he was having a headache, Hey, hey, dont get it wrong. The person who tampered with your memory wasnt me. Im simply helped out. Im too lazy to deal with these complicated things.

Fan Yuan pressed forward step by step with a fierce momentum, Then, who was that chief?

Bai Xi went silent, and then broke out into a sudden grin, That person is you. Wait, no, no, its you, but its also not you. To be exact, its Dan Wen.

The Author Has Something to Say:

These two husbands are Old Bai and Miao Miao who were mentioned in Chapter 4.9 when Li Yanlong said he didnt know where they spent their honeymoon. They are also Senior Law Enforcers. Okay okay, I know you guys dont remember _(:)_

As for the issue of foreshadowing, its actually spread out slowly through the plots of each world. When the mystery is uncovered, this story will be finished. This slag author doesnt intend to write a long story, so my babies, Im in a hurry haha (*3)
