Chapter 770: Chapter 0770: Bringing Olivia Home
In the carriage, Ye Xunhuan and Olivia had a brief chat about how to die, and then swiftly changed the topic.
The subject was rather unpleasant, and besides, Olivia actually wanted him, Ye Xunhuan to turn into a big bat, which he could not tolerate.
He certainly didn’t want to become a freak, nor did he want to be hunted down by the people from the Vatican.
"What did you come to find me for?" Ye Xunhuan asked softly.
"To hang out!" Olivia took a deep breath and said, "I have no friends, you know that. You got married, didn’t stay in Europe, and didn’t invite me to hang out, so I could only come here to spend some days with you!"
Ye Xunhuan’s eyes widened in surprise as he looked at Olivia, "You came all the way to Huaxia just to hang out with me?"
"And even risked the wrath of the Hidden Dragons showing up at my doorstep!"
"Let the Hidden Dragons come if they want, what’s there to be scared of!" Olivia said assertively, "If they bother me, I’ll crush their balls, squeezing out the yolks!"
Three black lines appeared on Ye Xunhuan’s forehead again. This woman was truly fierce!
"Okay, big sister, you win. I, Ye Xunhuan have never admired anyone in my life, but I admire you!"
Olivia ignored what Ye Xunhuan had said and continued indifferently, "Besides, I came here to play, not to cause trouble. The Hidden Dragons wouldn’t just pick a fight for no reason!"
"After all, you guys in Huaxia are tough to deal with!"
"Your timing is a bit off, you know!"
"What happened?" Olivia asked curiously as she looked at Ye Xunhuan.
Ye Xunhuan didn’t rush to reply; instead, he lit a cigarette for himself, took a gentle puff, exhaled a thick cloud of smoke, and then slowly said, "I killed some people from Kunlun and Shu Mountain a couple of days ago. You coming here now might make them think you’re here to help me."
Olivia immediately opened her mouth wide, looking incredibly surprised at Ye Xunhuan, "Marshal, you are awesome, provoking the two most fearsome sects in Huaxia!"
"Right, you wanted to die, didn’t you?" Ye Xunhuan exclaimed as if he had just realized something.
Olivia suspiciously scanned Ye Xunhuan back and forth twice and said, "You’re not planning to make me attack these sects, are you?"
"Yes, what do you think?" Ye Xunhuan said excitedly, "You attack them, and they will definitely go all out to kill you, that way your wish will be fulfilled, and you can die!"
"Don’t worry, after your death, I will collect your body, find a geomantically blessed spot, and bury you there..."
Olivia’s face slowly started to look ugly.
Yet Ye Xunhuan, seemingly unaware, continued excitedly, "Then later, when I have a son and daughter, I’ll take them to pay respects to you and tell my daughter and son, ’This is the price of showing off. Look, the grass over the grave is already a foot high...’"
"Get lost!" Olivia couldn’t help but yell in anger, "You want me to kill for you and then use my death to teach your own kids!"
"Marshal, you’ve got a neat little scheme there!"
"Not bad, huh."
"Suddenly, I don’t feel like dying anymore!" Olivia said emphatically, "When you have a daughter and son, I’ll steal one and train them to be my successor..."
"Such malevolence will get you struck by lightning!"
"I’m willing to take the strike!"
Ye Xunhuan suddenly seemed wilted like a frostbitten eggplant.
The next moment, without waiting for Ye Xunhuan to speak, Olivia once more said, "But thank you though, I know you want me to stay alive. Don’t worry, as long as you’re alive, I won’t die. How could I, when I still have people to talk to?"
Olivia is not a fool. How could she fail to see that Ye Xunhuan had the best intentions? n𝚘vp𝚞𝚋.com
While everyone else wanted to live, she yearned for death.
As a friend, naturally, she wouldn’t want to see it happen, even though she knew her friend had lived a long life. Even if she herself died, her friend might not, and she probably wouldn’t let her friend seek death, right?
"If you don’t die, that’s great. Then I’ll have a powerful ally. When the time comes, you just stand up and shout, and all the blood clans and swarms of bats will attack Shu Mountain and Kunlun. Just thinking about that scene makes it incredibly spectacular..."
"Marshal, your mouth is really cheap, so cheap!" Olivia said through gritted teeth.
Ye Xunhuan chuckled, "Isn’t that exactly why you like me, because I’m so cheap?"
Olivia was taken aback!
It seemed that indeed, she did like the cheap side of Ye Xunhuan. If he weren’t cheap, always casually talking to her, would she have become close friends with him?
Others met Olivia with utmost respect, even the top overlords behaved courteously around her and none dared to joke with her.
But Ye Xunhuan didn’t care about these things at all.
He lived his life his own way.
Seeing Olivia drift off, Ye Xunhuan spoke again, "Olivia, have you booked a hotel?"
Hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Olivia slowly came back to her senses and looked at him with a puzzled face, "Why would I book a hotel for no reason?"
"To stay!" Ye Xunhuan said seriously, "Otherwise, where are you going to stay when you come to Huaxia?"
"Of course, I’ll stay at your place!" Olivia said without hesitation. "After all, I’m your old friend, your confidante. Having traveled so far, don’t you think as the host, you should give me a proper welcome?"
"Besides, isn’t there an old saying in Huaxia: ’Isn’t it a delight to have friends come from afar?’"
"How come this doesn’t apply to you?"
"I’ll buy you an apartment, can you please not live with me?" Ye Xunhuan looked at Olivia somewhat pleadingly.
Ye Xunhuan knew very well that this woman was just like him, both were utterly unfiltered; often times, whatever should or shouldn’t be said would just blurt out.
What if Olivia said something in front of Qiu Ruoxi...
Just the thought made Ye Xunhuan break out in a cold sweat.
"Do you think I don’t have the money to buy a house in Huaxia?" Olivia said very pretentiously. "Sister could even afford to burn money cooking for a year without a problem!"
"If you’re so impressive, why don’t you go buy one then?"
"Having money doesn’t mean I should waste it. Isn’t there an old saying in Huaxia that wasting is shameful?" Olivia said calmly. "If I bought a house and left after a few days, that would be wasteful and I’d be hogging resources..."
At this moment, Ye Xunhuan felt a headache coming on.
This woman knew too much about Huaxia’s etiquette and human feelings, and by the looks of it, she was determined to stay at his place!
"Marshal, are you afraid that your wife will get angry seeing you bring a beautiful woman home?"
"Nonsense, if it were you and you brought a man home, telling your husband, ’This is my friend, he’s going to live with us,’ how do you think your husband would feel?"
"I don’t have a husband, so I wouldn’t know!"
Ye Xunhuan sighed helplessly. It seemed there was no way to avoid Olivia staying at his place.
