Best Young Master

76: Chapter 071 [Destined Encounter?] 76: Chapter 071 [Destined Encounter?] Time seemed as fleeting as sand in the palm of a hand, always slipping away when least expected.

Three days whipped by, and the countdown to the national electronic sports competition had begun.

Numerous enthusiasts from all over the country rushed to Hanghu, eager to witness the event firsthand.

Beyond that, many of Situ Ruoshui’s fans had also traveled from afar, solely to see Situ Ruoshui’s charm.

Perhaps sensing Situ Ruoshui’s unrivaled popularity, the event organizers poured a hefty sum into promoting the competition on major media outlets.

They also plastered posters around Hanghu’s major plazas.

On the posters, Situ Ruoshui was dressed in anime attire, posing for a cosplay.

Her 36D bust and snow-white legs seemed to carry a magnetic pull, drawing people’s gazes.

Especially the men, who upon seeing those 36D breasts, seemed eager to bite into them, and upon seeing those white, beautiful legs, longed to tear Situ Ruoshui’s cosplay to shreds to glimpse at her springtime beauty.

And yet…

when they saw Situ Ruoshui’s lovely, tender face, far from feeling evil, they grew even more inflamed.

Baby-faced bust, always a big killer among men!

“It seems Jin Emperor wasn’t just whistling Dixie when he called her the Goddess of Otaku,” someone remarked.

On a main road in Hanghu, Ye Fan was driving his car when he spotted Situ Ruoshui’s poster and felt a spark of excitement, unable to resist a silent sigh of appreciation.

To him, Situ Ruoshui, with her baby-faced charm, was the perfect blend of an angel and a witch, instantly triggering a man’s desire to conquer.

Soon, Ye Fan diverted his attention back to the documents in his hands, multitasking as he drove and read about Qiao Bazhi and Liu Tianjun.

The documents had been handed to Ye Fan by Su Yuxin in the afternoon, who mentioned that due to the tight schedule, the information was somewhat brief, promising to provide a more detailed report after some time.

By the time Ye Fan reached Jiuxi Rose Garden, he had finished going through the documents and gained a preliminary understanding of Qiao Bazhi and Liu Tianjun.

According to the information provided by Su Yuxin, Qiao Bazhi was the top steward in Hanghu and Jiangnan for Nanqinghong, responsible for handling all affairs in Jiangnan.

His most capable assistant was Liu Qin, while Wu He wasn’t mentioned in the documents.

Qiao Bazhi had arrived in Hanghu two years ago and had entrenched himself there with an irresistible force, becoming the bona fide godfather of the Jiangnan underworld!

All this, besides his own remarkable abilities, was crucially supported by the strong backing of Nanqinghong!

Nanqinghong.

The largest underground organization in Huaxia, its influence spread across the entire Southern Hua Xia, terrifyingly powerful!

In contrast, the Dong Hai Gang paled in comparison.

The Dong Hai Gang, which rose from Dong Hai, now controlled the entire Yangtze River Delta Underground World, and was Nanqinghong’s next elimination target.

The two had been engaged in both overt and covert battles for several years, with the Dong Hai Gang currently at a disadvantage.

And Liu Tianjun was Dong Hai Gang’s head in Jiangnan.

Once he commanded great influence in the Jiangnan underworld, but now he was consistently being forced back by Qiao Bazhi, seemingly losing his grip on Hanghu and possibly the whole of Jiangnan, plummeting in reputation in the underworld.

This confirmed Ye Fan’s suspicion—Liu Tianjun wasn’t warning him out of goodwill; instead, he was planning to use Ye Fan to fight against Qiao Bazhi.

In such a situation, Ye Fan decided to wait for more detailed information from the Su Family before making a move.

Compared to Qiao Bazhi and Liu Tianjun, Ye Fan was more curious about Situ Chen mentioned in the documents.

Because… according to the records, Situ Chen was Situ Ruoshui’s father!

“Black to riches?”

Thinking of Situ Ruoshui’s cute and tender appearance, Ye Fan couldn’t help but be curious about how such a dark and intimidating figure like Situ Chen had managed to raise his daughter to be so well-behaved.

“You’ve returned, Doctor Ye.”

When Ye Fan returned to the villa, Su Yuxin had already arrived; she was chatting with Su Liuli.

Seeing Ye Fan enter, she stopped talking and greeted him with a smile.

As long as she wasn’t in the company, she would refer to Ye Fan as Doctor Ye.

Ye Fan nodded, only to spot Su Liuli watching him with a scornful look, as if he owed her money.

Regarding this, although Ye Fan was aware of the deep misunderstanding between him and Su Liuli, he couldn’t be bothered to explain and let Su Liuli think whatever she wanted.

“Vroom…

vroom…”

Shortly afterward, before Ye Fan could head upstairs, a sports car’s roar echoed from outside the hall.

Su Jindi parked his flashy Lamborghini in the villa’s courtyard.

“Brother Ye!”

Soon after, Su Jindi entered the hall and, spotting Ye Fan, excitedly hurried over.

“Jindi, as the saying goes, one takes on the attributes of one’s associates.

I’d advise you to keep your distance from this sophisticated hooligan.”

Seeing this, Su Liuli seized the chance to complain maliciously, “Your Brother Ye was rocking Yu Xin’s Bentley in the middle of the road three days ago—right in the middle of the road…”

As her words fell, Su Liuli made an exaggerated gesture that almost seemed to ask, “Brother, to what extent have you sinned?

“Wha…

what?”

Upon hearing this, Su Jindi was initially taken aback and then looked at Ye Fan with admiration, “Car sex on the road, Brother Ye, you’re too awesome!

How did you manage that?

Teach me…”

“—”

Angered, Su Liuli’s chest quivered as she grabbed a sofa cushion and threw it at Su Jindi, almost as if warning him to stay away from Ye Fan.

“Sister Liuli, are you on your period?” Su Jindi, completely oblivious to the deepening misunderstanding between Su Liuli and Ye Fan, retorted irritably.

“You’re the one on your period…”

“Enough, why do you two start quarreling as soon as you meet?” This time, before Su Jindi could retort, Su Yuxin intervened to break the ice and asked, “Jindi, isn’t it Saturday tomorrow?

Why are you back home?”

“I’m going to the national eSports competition to watch matches!”

Su Jindi declared righteously but at seeing Su Yuxin’s serious face, he weakly explained, “Sis, I attended a month of makeup classes, and I haven’t skipped a single class.

Plus, I improved my ranking by more than ten places in the test a couple of days ago.”

Upon hearing that, Su Yuxin didn’t rebuke him further.

She could tell that ever since Ye Fan had arrived, Su Jindi had become more ambitious than before.

“Brother Ye, shall we go together?”

Seeing that Su Yuxin wasn’t angry, Su Jindi enthusiastically said, “Once you meet Situ Ruoshui, you’ll understand that her goddess status isn’t just for show, and…

it’s also a pleasure to watch the Barbie Team’s match live.”

“Not going.”

Ye Fan shook his head while remembering the incident from last night and jokingly said, “Three days ago, Situ Ruoshui invited me to join the Barbie Team, and I declined…”

“Uh…”

Surprised by Ye Fan’s words, both Su Jindi and Su Yuxin were stunned while Su Liuli said disbelievingly, “Hey, it’s still daylight, and you want us to believe that cows can fly?”

“Brother Ye, really?”

Trusting Ye Fan initially, Su Jindi hadn’t doubted but hearing Su Liuli’s comment, he felt that it was too improbable.

On one hand, he wasn’t aware of Ye Fan’s current League of Legends level, and on the other, he couldn’t believe that the sexy otaku goddess Situ Ruoshui would personally invite Ye Fan to join the Barbie Team!

After all, the Barbie Team was the top League of Legends team in Huaxia, and countless players dreamed of joining, let alone receiving a personal invitation from Situ Ruoshui!

“Pfft—”

Seeing Ye Fan lost for words, Su Yuxin, who had realized Ye Fan was joking, laughed and helped smooth things over, “Even when Divine Doctor Ye jokes, you guys can’t tell, seriously.”

“I knew it, if Situ Ruoshui really invited Brother Ye to join the Barbie Team, then those fans of hers like me might as well buy a block of tofu to dash their brains out!” Su Jindi grinned, totally unbeknownst that Ye Fan was ‘bragging’.

“Bragging without preparing drafts.” Su Liuli didn’t miss the chance to take a jab at Ye Fan.

Seeing this, Su Yuxin once again changed the topic, “Jindi, in three days, Sister Liuli and I are going to Lingyin Temple to make a vow, will you go?”

“If Brother Ye goes, I’ll go,” Su Jindi said, looking to Ye Fan for direction.

Hearing this, Su Yuxin looked at Ye Fan, “Divine Doctor Ye, why don’t you join us?”

“Alright.”

Ye Fan thought about it and, having nothing else to do, agreed.

…

Purple Garden Noble Area in Donghai.

Dressed in a cute dress, Situ Ruoshui sat at the dining table, slowly chewing her dinner while Aunt Yang kept adding more food to her bowl.

Seeing the meat and vegetables piling up in her bowl, Situ Ruoshui blinked her big eyes and said, “Aunt Yang, I shouldn’t eat too much at night, or I’ll get fat.”

“Miss, you’re at the age where you’re still growing; you won’t get fat,” Aunt Yang laughed.

Situ Ruoshui quickly shook her head like a rattle-drum, “No, I can’t get fat.

I’m the spokesperson for the League of Legends game and this eSports competition.”

“Alright then, just eat more vegetables, and skip the rice,”

Left with no choice, Aunt Yang conceded, then asked, “By the way, Miss, I heard that the national eSports competition will last for three days, so will Miss come back four days later?”

“It will probably be four days.”

Situ Ruoshui’s smile faded, she lowered her head and after a few seconds of silence, she bit her lips and said, “I need to go to Lingyin Temple to make a wish.”
