From Joy of Life to Becoming a Saint

Chapter 18 Transformation into a living person
As the saying goes, trust a person when you employ him, and don't employ a person you don't trust. Since Chen Qiye has decided to let Ye Dan go to Kyoto to explore the way for him in advance, there is no problem in giving him two thousand taels of start-up capital.

"What about your family in Lezhou?"

"Haha... To be honest, big brother, my wife is a gangster. She used to travel with me everywhere. My daughter was raised a little wild by my wife. Although she is young, she loves to run around."

"Brother... Can I take them with me?"

"Of course, if you think it's inappropriate, then let them stay in Lezhou. It's only a year anyway, and it will pass quickly."

Ye Dan looked at Chen Qiye's expression carefully, as if he was afraid that his words would make his elder brother unhappy.

Chen Qiye patted his shoulder: "No, in fact, this is better, and it is less likely to attract other people's attention."

"Thank you, brother."

Although Chen Qiye considers himself not to be a good person, once he is sure that someone is one of his own, he will not put on airs.

If it is confirmed that Ye Dan is trustworthy, then there will be no need to be so strict about the identities of the big brother and the younger brother in the future. He is not the kind of person who likes to pretend to be mature. Although his mental age is older than the other person, he looks seven or eight years younger. It is somewhat embarrassing for him to be called big brother.

Next, Chen Qiye explained to Ye Dan what to do after arriving in Kyoto.

It's probably just to establish some ordinary information networks. At least when I go there, I won't have to take the risk of finding out whether Fan Xian has arrived in Kyoto, what major events have happened in Kyoto, and whether which important figures are waiting for the news.

Arrange people to go there in advance to minimize the possibility of being targeted by those old monsters in Kyoto.

No matter whether this is the TV series or the novel "Joy of Life", Fan Xian's fathers are all sinister old men. It is better to be careful until you have the strength to do whatever you want.

After giving instructions to Ye Dan and confirming that he would set off three days later, Chen Qiye asked him to go back and start preparing.

Then I continued to practice.

Three days later, Ye Dan set off on time. Chen Qiye did not show up because on the surface Ye Dan was going to Kyoto on his own. Except for Chen Qiye and Ye Dan, no one else knew the real reason why Ye Dan went to Kyoto.

Of course, it doesn’t matter if others guess it. It’s not a secret that must be kept secret.

All that should be done has been done. All that remains is to practice diligently and improve your strength as soon as possible.

For several days in a row, Chen Qiye's life was relatively peaceful. Apart from practicing martial arts, he did nothing else. At most, he would occasionally discuss the family's development direction with his father.

During the chat with his father, Chen Qiye got an inspiration. His father advised him not to work so hard, as some things will eventually turn into the opposite, and being too eager for success can easily lead to problems.

Chen Qiye felt that what his father said was very right. He had been practicing martial arts almost like crazy recently, and always felt that the improvement was too slow.

Not to mention leisure time, even meal time has been squeezed out by him.

After figuring it out, Chen Qiye decided to relax and stop working so hard. He would occasionally sit down to rest and practice with a calm mind.

After a period of time, I was surprised to find that this way of practicing was more effective.

At noon, in the study in the backyard of Chen's house.

After Chen Qiye converted the backyard into a training ground, it basically became his personal territory, and the study also became his exclusive study.

He usually practices martial arts and has hardly ever been to the study room in the backyard. After activating the reading skill, Chen Qiye began to make use of this study room.

With a calm mind, Chen Qiye would occasionally take time out to read a book peacefully. This not only helps him relax, but also allows him to upgrade his skills, which is the best of both worlds.

"Dong dong dong..."

"Son."

There was a knock on the door and Qin Feier's voice.

Chen Qiye, who was sitting at the desk reading a book, said calmly, "Come in!" The door opened, and Qin Feier, dressed in red, walked in holding a zither.

"Sir, Fei'er is here to play a song for you."

They have been together for several months. Although Qin Feier has never understood why Chen Qiye likes listening to music so much, it is good that he has this hobby. She plays well and Chen Qiye likes it, so they can use this thread to slowly get closer.

Qin Feier doesn't ask to complete the task now, she just wants to live well.

"Oh? Why did Miss Feier take the initiative to come and play music for me today? Didn't you always beg me to give you a day off in the past?"

Qin Fei'er blushed and said coquettishly, "Sir, please stop making fun of Fei'er."

"Well···"

Suddenly, a hint of doubt flashed across Qin Feier's eyes, and she seemed to hear a faint hum.

"Sir, did you hear any sound?"

"Ahem..."

Chen Qiye touched the little head under the table without changing his expression: "No, Miss Fei'er must have heard it wrong."

"Miss Fei'er, you should go back first. I'll come back to you after I finish reading. Um... uh... hehe..."

As Chen Qiye was talking, he suddenly narrowed his eyes, his expression became extremely strange, and finally he even started to roll his eyes.

Qin Feier looked at it with fear and confusion.

"Sir, what's wrong with you?"

Chen Qiye waved his hand: "No... It's okay, I'm just a little tired, I just need to rest for a while."

Hearing him say this, Qin Feier naturally didn't dare to disturb him anymore. She originally wanted to ask him indirectly when he entered Kyoto, but now she had to give up.

She bowed and said, "Then Fei'er will not bother you, sir."

"Okay, I'll talk to you later. We still need to listen to music today."

There is a very strange thing, that is, when other people play the song, the experience gained is much better than when Qin Feier plays it. This may be related to the skills of the person playing the song.

Qin Feier nodded, then walked out of the study with the piano in her arms. Only after Qin Feier closed the door of the study did Chen Qiye let out a long sigh, lay down on the chair, and casually patted his head under the table.

"You still haven't gotten up yet, do you like hiding so much?"

A magical thing happened. The great magician Chen Qiye performed a magic trick and conjured up a Ye Xiaoling from under the table.

The maid Xiaoling stood up with a red face, wiped the corners of her mouth, raised her hand and punched her master on the chest a few times.

"The young master is annoying. He deliberately let Miss Fei'er in. How annoying."

If she hadn't been used to it, she would have choked just now.

Qin Feier was right in front of her at the time, and if she made any sound she would be too embarrassed to face anyone.

Chen Qiye hugged the little maid into his arms and pinched her nose: "I told you a long time ago, don't hang around in front of me. Recently, I have been abstaining from sex and want to concentrate on practicing martial arts, but you have to come up to me and stick to me. If I don't teach you a lesson, you will be in big trouble, right?"

Ye Xiaoling's cheeks flushed as she stammered, "I... I didn't come up to you on purpose. I just... I just came to make tea for you. Xiaoling is your maid, and making tea is my duty."
