Chapter 218: Without a Trace

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Ye Mo had insomnia due to over-excitement, and he only slept after three or four o’ clock in the morning with extraordinarily good spirit and his mouth in a wide grin.

In the morning, when everyone else was up, Ye Mo remained sleeping soundly with no sign of awakening soon.

Liu Duo didn’t bother him. She went to town with Ye Yang and Ye Liu after breakfast. Ye Ling stayed at home, despite being invited to join them. He said he would wait for Ye Mo, and so she took off with the other two brothers.

She didn’t want to trigger the ill-tempered man. She couldn’t tell when he would explode for no reason.

By the time Ye Mo woke up, it was already ten. “Ling, where did Yang and the others go?”

“They went to town. You should wash up and have your breakfast,” Ye Ling got up and went to the kitchen to get his meal.

Meanwhile, the three other family members went to town to order bricks and tiles and a series of other materials needed for construction. They paid the deposit. The shops would deliver the items the next day.

They also went to the alley with the intention to employ ten casual workers from the same village.

“Hey, my fellow brothers. We’re building a house and looking for laborers. Each worker gets 50 wen a day, lunch provided. We’re also from the same village, so it’s convenient going to and fro. Those interested please report to our house tomorrow. We only need fifteen.”

Ye Liu told them what they were offering, neither humble nor pert. Then he brought Liu Duo and Ye Yang to buy food ingredients. They would start building a house the next day and had to prepare everything they needed, or it would end up in disarray.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed, and their four-storey building was completed. With Ye Liu’s genius mind and seasoned skills, along with the help of the workers – all of whom had experience – they were able to build the house exactly like the blueprint Liu Duo had drawn, and they even restored it to perfection, without a bit of difference!

Liu Duo stood on the fourth floor, looking afar, happier than ever. This should be the happiest day of her life, the five of them finally having a home to call their own.

“Little Duo, a few more days and then we can move in. Isn’t that great?” Ye Liu joined her on the balcony on the fourth floor.

When she heard that, she turned around and leaned against the structure, “Of course. It’ll be nice to have my own room.”

Ye Liu furrowed his brow and stepped forward, lowering his head to look at her, “Little Duo, does this mean we sleep separately? But I don’t want that.”

She had mentioned that before, but he didn’t mind it then. Now that each of them had their own room, he resisted a little.

She pushed him aside and berated him angrily, “Nothing you can do about it! You’re not a child, so don’t tell me you’re scared!”

Seeing the expression on her face that basically scream “non-negotiable”, Ye Liu smiled. Nothing mattered as long as she was happy. The wife was number one!

On the other side of town, a low-pressure situation had developed at the Ye family courtyard. Ye Xuan had not passed his exams again. He shut himself indoors all day long, with nothing to say. It was a boring life.

He looked at Liu Duo’s portrait and a smile slowly emerged. It seemed as though it had been almost a month, maybe longer, since he had last seen her. He missed her.

He got up and was about to exit the house when Grandmother Ye stopped him, “Xuan Er, where are you going?”

She believed it was their failure in relocating the graves that had caused her grandson to fail the exam again. She was furious, and her hatred for Ye Yang and his family grew.

“Grandma, I’m going out for a walk. Studying at home all day is tiring, I need to relieve my boredom.”

With that, he did not wait for her to reply. He turned and walked out of the house!
