From Joy of Life to Becoming a Saint

Chapter 92 Mysterious Attraction
Fan Ruoruo clenched her fists, and after a long silence, she suddenly said, "I believe you."

"Hmm?" Chen Qiye paused while drinking tea, a little confused.

Judging from the current situation, knowing that I approached her with a purpose, she should not be disappointed and angry... or just say goodbye and leave as if nothing happened, because we were just casual acquaintances and there is nothing worth lingering about.

But what does it mean to say I believe?
But soon, Fan Ruoruo gave an explanation without him having to ask.

Fan Ruoruo stared straight at Chen Qiye: "I want to tell you, if someone wants to harm my brother, or has ulterior motives towards my brother, I will definitely not ignore it."

Chen Qiye shrugged: "If Miss Ruoruo doesn't like me, she can always find someone to deal with me."

"Hey? Why are you like this?"

Seeing his nonchalant look, Fan Ruoruo was really furious. She said that just to have a beginning to pave the way for the following words, but this guy really couldn't stand any bad words and gave her the cold shoulder on the spot.

If Fan Ruoruo really regarded this person as her brother's enemy, she would not have asked Fan Sizhe to help make an appointment with him.

Chen Qiye’s idea was very simple.

Now that he has confessed, there is no need for him to continue pretending to be a gentleman.

Even if he might have to cooperate with Fan Xian in the future, it would only be a mutually beneficial cooperation. It did not mean that he would have to beg anyone for help, nor would he be anyone's lackey.

In this situation, he can be polite to people around Fan Xian, but the prerequisite is that the other party is also polite to him.

The best you can do is to be polite to each other and not offend others.

But if someone tries to deceive him, Chen Qiye will not compromise.

With my current strength, I don’t necessarily have to cooperate with the protagonist of the plane.

Chen Qiye said calmly: "Miss Ruoruo, your brother and I each get what we need. Although I am not a great good person, I am not a good person either."

"Since Master Fan has no intention of becoming my enemy, I, Chen, will naturally not intentionally cause trouble."

"Listen to me first."

Fan Ruoruo was so angry that her teeth were itching.

He continued: "Although I don't like those who want to harm my brother, I believe in my brother."

"Since he knows what you want from him and has not chosen to cooperate with the Inspection Institute to deal with you, it means that my brother thinks the deal between you is fair."

“I also think it’s fair after I know the details.”

"That precious technique may be worth a thousand gold to others, and is definitely worth more than the life of an ordinary guard."

"But for my brother, your two appearances allowed my brother's friends to live safely. It is worth exchanging a book of martial arts for it."

"No matter what your purpose is, you helped my brother after all, so like you said just now, you may not be that good, but you are not completely bad either."

“So I believe your explanation.”

"The words you said to me that day, both in tone and expression, were very similar to when my brother expressed those novel ideas. This feeling cannot be faked."

After listening for a long time, Chen Qiye was finally sure that Fan Ruoruo was not here to break up with him.

His attitude improved a bit, he raised his hand and smiled, "Thank you Miss Ruoruo for your trust."

Judging from the current trend, Fan Xian would not doubt that he was a fellow villager, but he would definitely suspect that he was someone from the temple.

But it doesn't matter. Not only is his strength enough to protect himself now, but he has also cultivated a huge force around him. Even if people find out, it doesn't matter.

There are many smart people in this world, especially the Inspection Office. Not to mention inspecting the whole world, but within the territory of Qing Kingdom, as long as they want, Chen Qiye knows that most of the times he urinated in the corners of the street when he was a child can be found out.

If Fan Xian asked the Inspection Institute to collect his information and look at it carefully, it would be easy to find the common points between the fellow villagers. Seeing that he showed goodwill, this person's attitude immediately changed again. Fan Ruoruo really didn't know how to evaluate it.

However, he also subconsciously felt that this was in line with this man's character. If he wasn't so arrogant, how could he dare to openly attack Yan Xiaoyi, let alone confront the Inspection Institute.

Fan Ruoruo pursed her lips and suddenly asked, "Then when you attacked Yan Xiaoyi that day, was that intentional? You weren't just venting your anger on me?"

Fan Ruoruo felt depressed. She was actually not the kind of woman who would easily care about someone.

But...although this person appeared by her side for only a short time, he left a deep impression on her.

And every time she chatted with him, Fan Ruoruo felt very comfortable and always felt that no matter how she talked, she was not having enough fun.

Just like when her brother told her about all kinds of things she had never heard of or seen before when she was a child, it was full of novelty and yearning.

Although Chen Qiye didn't use some new words like my brother, his way of speaking and personality... are similar.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that this person’s personality is the same as my brother’s.

But there was a strange feeling, as if he was not someone bound by this world.

Every move carries the power to break through the shackles of the world, without being bound by rules or compromises.

This feeling has a strong appeal to her who yearns for freedom.

Chen Qiye looked at her, then sighed and said, "Miss Ruoruo, there are many things in this world that are true and false. There are many things that you can't even tell whether they are true or false. Why bother digging into the details and causing yourself trouble?"

Fan Ruoruo looked strange when she heard this.

"Why are you saying these confusing words like the masters in the temple?"

"You were so generous just now, saying whatever you wanted..."

"Because I don't want to talk about it now. You always ask these meaningless questions, which are too boring to answer."

"you?"

Fan Ruoruo said angrily: "You were always polite to me before, why are you so impatient now?"

Chen Qiye smiled slightly: "It's very simple, because now I am seriously making friends with Miss Ruoruo."

"???"

Fan Ruoruo was stunned.

Without waiting for her to ask, Chen Qiye continued, "To be frank, my previous elegant appearance was all an act, and now I am the real me."

"Since Miss Ruoruo is still willing to treat me as a friend even though she knows the truth, then Chen will not continue to use false words to perfunctorily deal with Miss Ruoruo."

Listen to this...
What you mean is that if I treat you well, I don’t consider you as a real friend, and if I treat you badly, I consider you as a friend?
This feeling made Fan Ruoruo feel weird no matter how she thought about it.

In the end, she was too lazy to think about such annoying questions.

After taking a look at Chen Qiye, he hesitated for a while and asked, "Now that the Inspection Institute thinks you are fine, have you ever considered... finding a formal identity?"

"Official status?"

This question was a bit of a leap. What did it mean that Chen Qiye didn't react for a moment?
"Yes."

"For example... seek an official position in the court. I know you don't like being restricted, so just take up a sinecure. You can just leave your name there without doing any work and being controlled."

"I think you should understand that with the ability you have shown now, if you don't do this... I'm afraid the higher-ups won't be truly reassured."
