Chapter 1638 I’m already standing on the roof
Hua Manlou’s expression remained grim. Seeing his daughter chatting and laughing with Ye Bufan, he felt truly annoyed.
Although he had broken off the engagement with the Zheng family, he still didn't want Hua Ruyu to like this arrogant fellow.
With a gloomy expression, he walked over to Ye Bufan: “Come here, I have something to tell you.”
After speaking, he didn't wait for the other party to reply, directly turned his head, and walked towards the small hilltop nearby.
Ye Bufan shook his head helplessly. He originally didn't want to bother with the Hua family father and daughter, otherwise, he wouldn't have hidden his identity at the Zheng family.
But now there was no other way, he could only go and see.
He stood up and followed Hua Manlou in an orderly fashion, arriving at the small hilltop.
This small mountain, being opposite Qinglong Mountain, was exactly contrary to those who came to watch the battle, so it appeared extremely quiet.
The two stood there, looking up at the mountains, standing against the wind.
After waiting for a while, the other party still didn't speak, and Ye Bufan couldn't help but frown: “If you have nothing to say, I'm going back.”
Hua Manlou was high and mighty in the eyes of others, but Ye Bufan didn't care about him at all. What Jiangzhe's top expert, what a net worth of hundreds of billions, in front of him, it was completely insignificant.
“What did you see here?”
Hua Manlou finally spoke.
“Nothing, just mountains.”
Ye Bufan said casually.
“Young man, your insight is indeed shallow.” Hua Manlou pointed at a huge rock in front of him and said, “Look at this stone. Placed here, it is incredibly conspicuous and incredibly abrupt, but once placed among these mountains, it becomes as tiny as a grain of dust.”
Ye Bufan shook his head; he really wasn't in the mood to play guessing games with this old man here.
“Mr. Hua, just speak directly if you have something to say. I’m very busy.”
Hua Manlou's expression grew even gloomier. This kid was indeed arrogant. How many people in Jiangzhe tried to meet him but couldn't, yet he was actually impatient.
“This old man wants to tell you that one must know how to be humble. Although you are quite capable among Young men, this is not a reason for your arrogance. There are plenty of young talents stronger than you.”
A smile played on Ye Bufan’s lips. This old man was actually lecturing him.
“For example, according to you, who is stronger than me?”
“You've heard of the Medical Immortal of Huaxia, right? Mr. Ye Bufan. He is about your age, but he is already a Martial Saint Rank expert, the richest man in Huaxia. In every aspect, he is hundreds of times stronger than you.
So you should put away your arrogance and strive to improve yourself. As long as you can achieve half of Mr. Ye's accomplishments in the future, you will be able to look down upon the world.”
When Hua Manlou spoke, his demeanor was reverent, his tone solemn, and his eyes filled with respect.
But after listening, Ye Bufan couldn't help but laugh. What the hell was this? Comparing himself to himself, was this comparison interesting?
But as soon as he laughed, Hua Manlou became even more displeased, concluding that the other party was truly arrogant to the extreme and indeed incorrigible.
He said angrily, “What's so funny? Am I joking with you?”
Ye Bufan laughed for a long time before he finally managed to stop: “Whether it’s a joke or not isn’t important. Old sir, you didn’t come to find me just to say this, did you?”
“Forget it. I originally wanted to remind you, seeing you achieve so much at such a young age, but since you don't appreciate it, then so be it.”
Hua Manlou said, “I only have one thing to tell you, and that is to stay away from my daughter from now on. You two are simply not suitable for each other.”
Ye Bufan was speechless for a moment. He had already made his attitude clear to Old Zhang last time, but the other party still didn't believe him.
“You’re thinking too much. Hua Ruyu and I are just friends; there’s nothing else.”
Hua Manlou stood with his hands behind his back, his expression arrogant: “Young man, I have lived for so long, do you think I can’t see through your little schemes? To tell you the truth, you are simply not worthy of my daughter.”
Ye Bufan was speechless again. He didn't want to get involved in too many romantic debts, which was why he was so low-key, yet this old man actually looked down on him.
“Then tell me, what kind of person can be worthy of your daughter?”
Hua Manlou said, “To marry my daughter, one must at least have half the accomplishments of the Medical Immortal.”
“Uh…”
Ye Bufan was internally like, 'What the hell?' The entire Medical Immortal was standing right here, yet he insisted on half the accomplishments. What else could he say?
Seeing his expression, Hua Manlou frowned: “What do you mean by this?”
“Nothing. You’ll regret it later.”
Ye Bufan was too lazy to waste words with him, turned his head, and walked back.
“Hmph! Indeed, he is an unteachable brat, a rotten mud that cannot be propped up. He even said he’d make this old man regret it. Do you have that ability?”
Hua Manlou was full of disdain, “Kid, I won’t let you suffer a loss. As long as you promise not to see my daughter again, I can give you some guidance in the Dao of martial arts.”
Before Ye Bufan could answer him, he spoke again: “Don’t refuse for the sake of so-called Face. I tell you, this old man is the top expert in Jiangzhe, and my insights in the Dao of martial arts are not something a young person like you can compare to.
As long as I give you a casual pointer, it can make you go up another level.”
As he spoke, Hua Manlou’s Face was full of arrogance. In his opinion, such an enticing condition would move anyone, let alone a Young man like the one in front of him.
“Go up another level?” Ye Bufan looked back at him and smiled, his Face full of amusement, “No need, I’m already standing on the rooftop.”
Although these words were somewhat arrogant, compared to Hua Manlou, who was only Heaven Rank, he was indeed standing on the rooftop.
“Arrogant, ignorant, incurable!”
Seeing his good intentions being despised, Hua Manlou was instantly furious, filled with extreme disgust for this Young man.
Ye Bufan, however, paid him no mind and walked down the mountain without stopping. When he saw him make his move later, he wondered how splendid the expression of this self-righteous old man would be.
As soon as he returned to his previous spot, Hua Ruyu immediately came up to him and carefully examined him from head to toe.
“Brother Xiaofan, my dad didn’t do anything to you, did he?”
She had been on tenterhooks just now, knowing her father's temper, fearing that he would start a fight if things didn't go well.
Although Brother Xiaofan was formidable, he definitely wasn't a match for her father.
Ye Bufan smiled slightly: “It’s nothing, we had a very pleasant chat.”
Hua Ruyu was about to say something when Hua Manlou returned at that moment, saying with a grim expression, “Girl, come here.”
“Dad…”
Hua Ruyu stomped her foot. Although she was full of reluctance, she couldn't resist her father's authority and finally walked back.
Hua Manlou snorted coldly and pulled her to sit on a large rock nearby.
Ye Bufan didn’t care; anyway, he had no particular feelings for Hua Ruyu, so he prepared to sit back on his small stool.
But at this moment, seven or eight more people walked over. The leaders were two Young men around 30 years old, one of whom was surprisingly Cui Mingpu from Hanwei Taekwondo Gym.
At the same time, Cui Mingpu also saw him, was immediately startled, and exclaimed, “It’s you!”
