Chapter 201: All One Family
Today is the fourteenth day of the lunar calendar, and the moon is much brighter, surrounded by many stars.
Looking out, it feels as though the magnificent starry river can be fully captured in view.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "There used to be so many cars, the stars were long hidden by the smog."
Huo Yu laughed, "Yes, thinking back to how life used to be, there’s still a bit of nostalgia. Life was so simple then, going to work, getting off work, eating, drinking, having fun, living a life you could see to the end of at a glance. But now, who knows what will happen the next day. Old brother Ye Chen, do you prefer life now or the past?"
Ye Chen rubbed his temples with both hands and laughed, "How should I put it, both have their advantages. I’m not like you; I used to be a small figure at the bottom, worrying even about food every day, living a life calculated to the penny. Sometimes, if I ate something a bit better, I’d be unable to pay next month’s rent."
After listening, Huo Yu was silent for a moment, then finally said, "True, but things are different now. You are the Alliance Leader of the Star Alliance, a LV17 Saint Tier Pet Tamer. Once you kill the Cyan Emperor, the entire Qing County will belong to you. As the saying goes, life has its ups and downs; thirty years to the east of the river, thirty years to the west! Hahaha!"
Ye Chen also grinned but said nothing more.
What Huo Yu said was indeed correct. If it weren’t for these chaotic times, I’d still be living in that tiny rented room, working my life away for such a meager salary.
But now, everything has changed drastically. Otherwise, how could the Orange Dragon Health Care boss Zhang Yuzhen have any contact with me, Ye Chen?
And how could I be lying here watching stars with this chief of the law enforcement bureau? Clearly, this was impossible.
But Ye Chen knew, with greater power comes greater responsibility, and fate dealt him a different hand, bestowing something unusual upon him.
That means his destiny is bound to be quite different, with many things ahead to face.
