“I fancy a lot of things, but my favorite is exquisite places.” Yun Yang stood up. “Alright, since you insist.”

Dong Tianleng understood right away. “If my lord wants to go to Cirrus House next time, this little brother will always treat you!”

“Hmm?” Yun Yang sighed. “As long as you don’t anger me, it’s good enough. How dare I make the great young master, Young Master Dong, buy me a meal?”

Dong Tianleng grinned and said ingratiatingly, “As long as my lord is willing to go, even my ancestors will feel blessed!”

The corners of Yun Yang’s lips twitched.

I wonder what the seniors of the Dong Family would think if they heard this?

I’m only going to drink with you and your ancestors of Dong Family would feel blessed?

Dong Tianleng reminded Yun Yang repeatedly on their way, “If we come across the two fellows from Chun Family and Xia Family, don’t ever speak of the lion’s case. Sigh, Qiu Yunsan won’t be able to come out now. I don’t know if his wounds have already rotted with pus… It’s… so gratifying…”

Yun Yang really could not take it anymore. When they were near the doors of Cirrus House, he finally said frowning, “Dong Tianleng, let me ask you… what type of education is it that you have been receiving since young?”

Dong Tianleng scratched his head and said, “Kindness, kinship, courtesy, intelligence, faith, loyalty, filial piety, modesty, justice, a lion’s heart for the nation and its people…”

Yun Yang replied, “F*ck off!”

“This young master is here again!” Once Dong Tianleng entered Cirrus House, he displayed the demeanor of a noble family’s descendant. From the moment he entered, each servant and maid he saw previously was given a hundred silver taels each.

However, they realized that there were no more rooms to be had.

Dong Tianleng was direct, throwing a thousand silver taels into one of the halls. “Brothers, please honor me. Take these taels and give the hall to me.”

A scholar inside frowned. “You bas…”

Dong Tianleng put his palm down again. “Five thousand taels!”

“We don’t mean this…” The person hesitated.

Another wave of his palm, “Ten thousand taels!”

With a loud swoosh, five to six people immediately disappeared from the Winter Snow Hall.

Yun Yang was speechless.

He had witnessed several cases of harassment using one’s wealth but it was still a first for him to see such exorbitant behavior, escalating the amount from a thousand taels like the great Young Master Dong.

Somehow, he got to enjoy the feeling of being a millionaire as well.

“Gratifying?” Dong Tianleng threw himself onto the chair leisurely and crossed his ankle on his other leg with a chuckle. “If they don’t leave with ten thousand taels, this young master shall stuff them with a million taels!”

Yun Yang was rolling his eyes endlessly. It was natural for Yun Zuiyue to know that Yun Yang had come. She was a smart woman after all, noticing the oddity in the recent atmosphere, she was both happy and worried.

After some hesitation, she finally decided to still come greet him.

When she arrived at the entrance of the Winter Snow Hall, she heard Yun Yang’s voice from the outside. “Dong Tianleng, you’re probably not as familiar to Cirrus House as I am. I’m a regular…”

Yun Zuiyue was stunned.

Yun Yang’s tone was rather cocky. This is… a little odd.

Yun Zuiyue walked in softly and saw Dong Tianleng right away. This fellow had been frequenting Cirrus House so often recently that he was a regular too.

“Why, It’s Young Master Dong.” Yun Zuiyue greeted him courteously.

Dong Tianleng chortled in triumph and said, “Lady Zuiyue, you honor me too much by coming over personally. Those fellows can’t even see you after all trying sorts of methods.”

This man had frequented Cirrus House for about a dozen times already but he had only ever seen Yun Zuiyue on his first visit. Seeing that Yun Zuiyue had actually come over this time, he was surprised by the sudden attention.

“You wish!” Yun Yang stood up and chuckled. ”Sister Yue, little brother misses you so much.”

Yun Zuiyue understood immediately. She replied in a velvety smooth voice, “Little flirt! How many days have you not come to see Sister Yue already and you actually dare say you miss me…”

“Am I not here now?” Yun Yang cried like a man wronged and said shamelessly, “I’ve been so antsy these days. I’ve heard that a popinjay has clung to Sister Yue so I came running over immediately. How dare I wait to do this?”

Yun Zuiyue replied, her eyes sparkling, “It’s fine now… That young master doesn’t come anymore.”

Yun Yang nodded. “That is a good thing.”

Dong Tianleng was poleaxed as an ox as he stuttered, “You know each other? Are you very close?”

Yun Yang looked at him like he was seeing a foolish child. “What do you think?”

Dong Tianleng’s expression was crestfallen. “So you didn’t come because of me…”

Yun Zuiyue chuckled, her radiance beaming beautifully like blooming flowers.

Both Yun Yang and Dong Tianleng stared at her; one was genuinely admiring while the other was acting for all his worth.

“Sister Yue’s place is buzzing as always…” Yun Yang laughed and said, “It’s so busy every day. Who has come today? Is there anyone I’m familiar with?”

Yun Zuiyue understood the meaning behind the seemingly innocent question and said, “Please, Young Master Yun is my honorable guest. However, there are really not many from those who have come that Young Master Yun is familiar with.”

Yun Yang said surprised, “Surely not?”

“You haven’t been here for while so you have not heard…” Yun Zuiyue smiled, covering her mouth. “All seven halls of Cirrus House are full today. Even the biggest hall in the middle has people queueing up for it. Sister Yue is about to be consumed by the hectic pace of this place.”

Yun Yang laughed and said, “Sister Yue, does that mean that you can’t keep me company for long? I knew Sister Yue would be running away again.”

Yun Zuiyue was torn. “It’s mainly because other customers would be angry. I’m afraid to cause you trouble as well.”

Yun Yang chuckled and replied, “Sister Yue, I have yet to introduce you. This is Young Master Dong.”

Yun Zuiyue smiled. “I know him already.”

“That’s you knowing him, not me introducing him.” Yun Yang pointed at Dong Tianleng and said, “Young Master Dong Tianleng is a very good friend of mine. He’s righteous and forthright, a good friend anyone would ever ask for.”

Dong Tianleng felt himself beaming with pride, puffing his chest out as he laughed. “Brother Yun has flattered me, it’s an exaggeration.”

Yun Yang continued, ”This brother of mine is the descendant of the Dong Family, one of the eight noble families in the martial arts world. His cultivation base is exceptional and his enemies are rarely found roaming the martial arts world! He’s heroic in the face of injustice, avenging grudges and dismissing worldly matters! He is indeed a man of men of our times, an extraordinary man who’s hard to come across.”

Dong Tianleng felt like he was on cloud nine from the compliments, his eyes disappearing into lines from his grin but he spoke otherwise, “No, no… you’re flattering me…”

His heart though, was yearning – My lord, compliment me more, give me more praises! Never has there been anyone who praised me like this ever since I was born.

Everyone who met me would call me outright – You shameless ass!

This is really my first time ever to be complimented like this…

Yun Yang did not let him down as he continued singing praises. “Sister Yue, there’s nothing Brother Dong can’t solve in Tianxuan Continent. If I’m not here, go to him for anything! If he doesn’t care about them, it would be his reputation at stake.”

Dong Tianleng patted his chest and said with burning generosity, “That’s right. Sister Yue, come look for me, Dong Tianleng, if anyone dares find fault with you. If I don’t get back at them, I’m – I’m… not brought up by a human being!”

Yun Zuiyue smiled gently as she said, “Young Master Dong, there’s no need to be like this. Besides, there’s not much trouble… It’s already great that Young Master Dong can spend time here. Don’t spoil your mood for the sake of such petty matters.”

Dong Tianleng clapped his chest loudly. “Sister Yue, what do you mean! Sister Yue is my lord’s Sister Yue, this means you’re my birth sister! If I could still remain indifferent to whoever dares mess with my birth sister, how could my dignity remain intact? Dong Family’s ancestors won’t let me go too!”

Yun Zuiyue chuckled softly and said, “Young Master Dong…”

Dong Tianleng urged. “Sister Yue, just call me Little Cold. We’re siblings, call me Little Cold, it’s my nickname!”

Yun Zuiyue smiled, “I dare not!”

Dong Tianleng grew anxious. “Sister Yue is mocking me!”

“I really dare not.” Yun Zuiyue shook her head and said with a troubled expression, “Young Master Dong is my guest of honor.”

Dong Tianleng was anxious as he sprung up and kneeled down on the ground. “If Sister Yue despises me and doesn’t call me Little Cold, I won’t get up!”

Yun Zuiyue was dumbfounded.

How could Yun Yang get along with this oddball? Why was he kneeling down?

She looked imploringly at Yun Yang.

Yun Yang coughed. “Little Cold, this is not good. Sister Yue is afraid to cause you troubles, how could you not understand her kind intention?”

Dong Tianleng kneeled determined. “I’m not afraid of any troubles! Sister Yue, I won’t get up if you don’t call me Little Cold!”

Yun Yang sighed and said, “Sister Yue, Little Cold is not an outsider… Besides, outsiders won’t know it, it won’t spoil his reputation.”

“I don’t have a reputation!” Dong Tianleng was agitated. “Sister Yue~”

“Alright, Little Cold.” Yun Zuiyue was helpless.

“Sister Yue, I won’t get up if you don’t come to me when there are troubles in future!” Dong Tianleng went a step further.

Yun Zuiyue sighed and said softly, “Little Cold, this sister knows your kind intention. I’m happy as it is, just knowing your thoughts. Sister has had a hard life, and this place is not somewhere you can come often… Get up quick, I’ll take you as my brother.”

“Sister is still taking me as an outsider!” Dong Tianleng grew lionhearted, a sense of justice rising from his heart. “But I’ll keep my words! I won’t get up if sister doesn’t promise me!”

“Alright, alright…” Yun Zuiyue said exasperatedly. “I promise you.”

Dong Tianleng sprung up in delight. “Thank you so much, Sister Yue! Thank you, boss!”

Yun Zuiyue gave Yun Yang a glance, not understanding how this fellow was so capable of having fooled a young master from the noble family into such a state of oblivion.

“Since Little Cold is now my little brother, everything shall be on the house when Little Cold comes the next time!” Yun Zuiyue said in a gentle voice, “Think of it as this elder sister’s small token from today onwards… A meeting gift for little brother.”

Dong Tianleng’s eyes were rimmed red. “Absolutely not! Little brother is rich! It doesn’t have to be free, you can charge me double, ten times even. Really, I don’t have anywhere else to spend my fortune!”
