From Joy of Life to Becoming a Saint

Chapter 54 The Second Alien Appears in Kyoto

"Your Highness, I'm afraid this person is a little difficult to control."

Xie Bian recounted in detail what he had seen, from the moment he met Chen Qiye to the moment he left, emphasizing Chen Qiye's arrogant and unruly behavior.

But after hearing this, Li Chengze's eyes became even brighter.

"That man was neither humble nor arrogant when talking to Fan Ruoruo. He is just a nobody from a small place, but he is so arrogant. It's just a facade."

"But it is said that Fan Xian personally came to visit him a few days ago, and he was in a very good mood when he came out. It is impossible that someone who can make our young Master Fan treat him like this is just a show."

"With Master Fan's current status and position, most people would try their best to curry favor with him. But Chen Qiye has never taken the initiative to approach Fan Xian, let alone curry favor with him."

"It seems that he is interested in Fan Ruoruo, but in reality, he has not put aside his pride and done anything to please her like Li Hongcheng did to make her smile."

"Such a person... Xie Bian, what do you think is his confidence?"

Xie Bian was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then replied: "In this world, if you want to be free and fearless, you have to be a grandmaster."

Li Chengze turned around and looked at him: "Do you mean to say that there is a grandmaster behind him?"

Xie Bian shook his head: "I don't know, I'm just expressing my understanding."

Li Chengze smiled, put his hands behind his back and sighed, "In short, if a small person is fearless, it means that he has a hidden card that can transcend the secular world like a great master."

"It seems we still have to continue observing. This may be the second anomaly that appeared in Kyoto besides Fan Xian."

"Your Highness, Chen Qiye is an archer at the peak of the eighth rank, with a strong sense of perception. If an ordinary ninth rank archer follows him too closely, he may be discovered... We don't have the help of a ninth rank archer. If we really want to monitor Chen Qiye, there are only me and Fan Wujiu. But if we leave, who will protect Your Highness' safety? For Chen Qiye... it's not worth it."

Li Chengze smiled and waved his hand.

"Who said we need to do it ourselves? Just wait and watch the show."

Xie Bian's eyes moved: "Your Highness, what are you talking about?"

Li Chengze said leisurely: "We have all discovered this anomaly, so there must be other people in Kyoto who have discovered it as well. When it comes to investigating people's backgrounds, the Inspection Institute is much more professional than us."

Xie Bian nodded: "I understand."

······
Chen Qiye rode his horse back to the city. He originally wanted to go directly back to the mansion to comfort the little maid, but he met a few familiar people on the way home.

In Kyoto, apart from the two women in the family, the people who can be called familiar are, needless to say, the three siblings of the Fan family.

"Brother, why do you suddenly want to go out for an outing? And you want to invite sister-in-law and us."

"Sister, she hasn't even married Fan Xian yet, and you're calling her sister-in-law right now?"

"Humph, you think I don't know? I said so in front of my brother."

"No sister, I'm still here?"

Fan Xian was walking on the street with his younger brother and sister, apparently strolling around and shopping.

As soon as Fan Sizhe finished speaking, he saw Chen Qiye, who was riding a horse and carrying a bow and arrow, bumping into them head-on.

I immediately asked curiously, "Is it you?"

Chen Qiye raised his hand and saluted.

"Master Fan, Miss Ruoruo, Master Sizhe."

Fan Sizhe stood on tiptoe and carefully observed his equipment: "Hey, where have you been?"

Chen Qiye smiled and replied, "I have nothing to do, so I went out hunting."

"If you were going hunting, why didn't you see any prey?"

Fan Ruoruo also asked curiously.

Her reaction surprised Fan Xian who was standing next to her. Why did his sister seem to have a good relationship with the other party?
Chen Qiye smiled and said, "I could have brought two back, but I let them go." "Why did you let them go?"

"Because I suddenly wanted to let go."

Fan Ruoruo wrinkled her nose strangely: "Your explanation sounds very strange."

The more Fan Xian looked at her, the more shocked he became. Was this still her sister who wasn't interested in any man?

This is not the end yet. After Fan Ruoruo finished speaking, she walked straight forward and looked at Chen Qiye on horseback with anticipation.

"We are going out for an outing tomorrow, do you want to come with us?"

Chen Qiye shook his head: "Forget it, from what you said just now, it should be a family outing, Chen is not convenient to disturb."

"Not really. We will also invite other friends, and Miss Lin will invite her friends."

Chen Qiye knew that she was talking about Lin Wan'er and Ye Ling'er. Judging from the situation, tomorrow's outing should be a game within a game started by Crown Prince Lin Ruofu and the Second Prince around Fan Xian. He didn't want to get involved unless there were benefits and reasons worth his involvement.

"There are still some things to do at Chen's house..."

Seeing that this person didn't go after she invited him twice, Fan Ruoruo was secretly annoyed. He said he would teach her kung fu, but in such a long time he never took the initiative to look for her.

I took the initiative to invite this person today, but he keeps refusing. Humph, if he doesn't want to go, then don't go.

She was angry in her heart, but she still maintained her courtesy on the surface and said with a smile: "If that's the case, then Ruoruo won't force it."

Seeing Fan Ruoruo's expression, Chen Qiye knew that the other party must be a little angry.

However, Fan Xian was present, so he didn't dare to flirt with the girl. He clasped his fists and said, "Master Fan, Miss Ruoruo, Master Sizhe, I'm leaving."

Fan Xian nodded. He had been observing his sister's attitude towards Chen Qiye from beginning to end, and came to the conclusion that his sister might have been abducted by someone.

After Chen Qiye left, before Fan Xian started asking questions, Fan Sizhe muttered:

"Sister, how can you invite a man like this on the street?"

Fan Ruoruo glared at him: "It's none of your business."

"Ruoruo, why do I feel that your attitude towards Chen Qiye seems to have changed a lot all of a sudden?"

Facing Fan Xian's question, Fan Ruoruo answered honestly: "Because he understands me."

"Brother, didn't you say that it's hard to find a true friend in life? I think it's good to have a true friend."

"No?" Fan Xian looked at her in surprise: "Are you so direct?"

Fan Ruoruo blinked: "Because you asked, brother."

"Sister, you just admitted it honestly when Fan Xian asked you, but you glared at me when I mentioned it?"

"Go on your way."

This personality is indeed the same as the sister he is familiar with. Fan Xian thought for a moment and asked again: "Then do you... have a good impression of him?"

"Brother... I don't mean what you think. I just... I just think he can be a friend I can talk to."

When Fan Ruoruo looked at her brother's eyes, she understood that her brother thought she liked Chen Qiye.

He explained hurriedly with a hot face.

Normally, Fan Ruoruo would answer almost everything Fan Xian asked, but this time Fan Xian didn't dare to believe that she was telling the truth.

It is very likely that his sister herself does not realize how special and easily misunderstood her attitude towards Chen Qiye is.

But Fan Xian didn't think much about it. He believed in Ruoruo's vision, and if she really liked someone, he would support her.
