The Rebirth Of A White Robe Man: I'll Follow You This Time Chapter 297
Advertisement
When Ren Yuan arrived in the Shao Residence, Shao Cheng had arrived at one of the meeting places he was able to spread around in the Chang Capital without getting the attention of the powerful people that had already built their own secret forces.
Shao Cheng's memories of his previous life have made it easier for him to dodge the dangerous, meticulous, and paranoid people around him.
Completely handling the state of the Empire, and mostly taking care of the entire situation in the Chang Capital has given Shao Cheng enough information to build his own secret forces without worrying about affecting anyone's grasp of power.
Although certain situations early on in Shao Cheng's life can be different from the information he had learned after managing the Empire after becoming the Great Advisor of the new Emperor.
Nonetheless, it is enough for Shao Cheng to make his move around the Chang Capital with greater ease than the first time he had built up his power and influence a few years after transmigrating.
Shao Cheng's years of experiences weren't just for nothing and were now showing its use.
"Xiaodan, what's the urgent situation you wanted to quickly convey to me?"
Shao Cheng didn't plan to leave Ren Yuan behind and just wanted to tease the man who dared to mention the red light district in his face, at the same time, comparing his beautiful appearance to the bunch of women he knows off.
Hmmm…? Am I perhaps… feeling jealous?
While Shao Cheng was doubting why he reacted in such a way, Xiaodan that has secretly called him out has finally revealed the urgent reason that caused him to cut off the precious time of his Young Master Cheng and the Prime Minister's son.
"Young Master Cheng, I would have waited to report this to you. But, I consider that you might want to quickly know about it."
After a quick report, Shao Cheng couldn't help but slightly wrinkle his eyebrows after hearing what Xiaodan had found out when secretly taking care of the hidden power that the already massacred Ma Family had left behind all over the place.
Cutting all of the roots to remove any future trouble and danger is the first important fact that Shao Cheng has seriously learned when facing the powerful families and influential people in the Chang Empire.
Even if the individual or group of people are extremely weak doesn't matter one bit, after all, there is a high chance that anyone can grow strong enough to fight over them in the future if leaving them be.
Revenge is a powerful tool to make a person grow beyond an impossible means.

… It's the reason why I will never show mercy even to the innocent people when needed be.
Shao Cheng couldn't help but inwardly sigh after those thoughts swiftly emerge in his mind before quickly focusing on Ren Yuan's situation after knowing that he couldn't spend the remaining day with him.
'Hey Purple, how is Ren Yuan going?'
Nonetheless, to make sure that the man wouldn't sulk or act unreasonably when they met again, he has quickly spoken in the mind link to a certain purple dragon that has chosen to stay with Ren Yuan instead of following him.
It once again made Shao Cheng wonder if he is really the person the perverted dragon has helped make a deal with the sleeping Chang spirit, instead of Ren Yuan, since the purple dragon sure likes to leave him alone.
"Oh, Mama bug is alright Papa bug! My Beautiful Grandmother's Bugs are greatly taking care of Mama Bug! After all, Mama Bug is Papa Bug, precious special friends!"
… You really are used to the word 'Bug' huh…Accepting it without worries, and always using it whenever you could… Where did you pride as the majestic Dragon disappeared into?
Shao Cheng's lip couldn't help but twitch at the Purple's constant use of the word Bug before returning his attention to the respectful Xiaodan waiting for his decision.
"Lead the way."
Since Ren Yuan is at home, My Twin Mothers will definitely take care of him like a great ancestor. I feel a bit at ease knowing that Ren Yuan is in their care since I can trust that they will look after him well.
Shao Cheng had also perceived that Ren Yuan genuinely respected and treated his Twin Mother really well, enough to lessen his crazy antics and surprisingly acting more politely in their presence, so there is nothing to worry about.
When Shao Cheng had changed his eye-catching clothes and appearance into a stealth dress while wearing a black mask, contrary to what he assumed happening in the Shao Residence, a certain person was eyeing the knife that had gotten closer in his face.
Sneeze!
While on the way outside the Chang Capital, Shao Cheng couldn't help but let out a soft sneeze causing him to slowly blink his eyes before quickly communicating with the purple dragon in their mind link.
Because the first person that came into Shao Cheng's mind had been Ren Yuan.
Shortly, he received a rather rude reply which was a derisive snort from the purple dragon.
Continue to act that way and I will take away your food. Let's see how you will react then, after all, I finally managed to have your weakness.

"Papa bug, if you are so worried about Mama bug, why don't you just come back home and entertain him? Take a break from doing those shady schemes all the time and pay attention more to Mama Bug. What would you do if Mama Bug was stolen by someone else?"
This time, it was Shao Cheng who inwardly let out a derisive snort toward the purple dragon words.
Honestly, this perverted dragon is always trying to pair him up with Ren Yuan, the same actions that his crazy cousin had always been doing, which lately has been giving him a disturbing smirk and suggestive wiggles of her eyebrows.
"Sounds like Ren Yuan is doing well. I'll be back before the sky turns dark."
"Well, hurry up Papa bug! Don't make Mama Bug wait for too long!"
When Purple didn't receive any reply after a few seconds and sensing that their connection in the mind link had really been shut off, he couldn't help but release a sigh of relief.
"Woah, that was damn close! I managed to fool My Wicked Papa bug! I am so Awesome!!!"
While Purple was feeling extremely proud with a huge grin on his face for deceiving the usually sharp wicked man, his purple eyes couldn't help but land at the flustered Ren Yuan that was being threatened and forced to take responsibility by the fierce Grandmother Bug.
"Beautiful Madam! Calm down! How could I dare to have the thought of playing with Little Cheng? Although Little Cheng sees me as a savior after saving him from almost drowning, I also see him as my savior for saving my life!"
Purple: Huh, Mama bug, you got it right!… instead, it's going to be Papa bug doing the playing, you know?
Besides, in the previous life, you are always chasing behind… and surprisingly being a coward at it too… always keeps quiet and chooses to watch in the dark.
Hmm… What was the right word for it?... Oh yeah! Like a certain Stalker!
Suddenly, Purple couldn't help but helplessly eye his pitiful Mama Bug that is usually fearless, and yet, his only weakness had always been Papa bug and the painful regret that deeply remained until his death.
"Really?"
Su Yanmei couldn't help but slightly lower down the small knife in her hand, while the unexpected burst of anger and irritation she felt was slowly decreasing.
And Ren Yuan who can quickly perceive the slow change of atmosphere around the unexpectedly fierce woman has swiftly nodded his head in a repeated manner.
"Yes! You can also say that among the people in the entire world, Little Cheng belongs to the list of few people I wouldn't dare to hurt! Hell, I don't even have the courage to lightly hit Little Cheng, so how could I do what Madam Yanmei is thinking off? So, please believe in me!"
Purple: Of course, Mama Bug doesn't have enough courage… or else you will be punished by Papa bug if you do that… preferable in bed… hehehe….
Completely oblivious to the perverted Purple Dragon watching his misery, Ren Yuan continues to pacify the slowly calming down Su Yanmei, fortunately, the other beautiful woman has finally taken a step forward, gently pulling her younger sister in another chair since the table in front of them has been flipped over.
"Younger Sister, calm your emotion down. It isn't good for your health. Little Chen will feel sad if he learns that you aren't getting better after prescribing your medicine and writing a guide of what not to do."
And just like that, after the third son has been mentioned, Su Yanmei was able to quickly get back to her usual mood and temperament, before slowly putting the small knife back in her robe where she usually hid it with a gentle smile on her face.
"By the way, Younger Sister, don't use the small knife next time. What would we do if Yuan's charming face got scratched? Next time, use a softer and gentler weapon alright? And don't point it in his face. We don't want our Little Cheng to feel saddened if his special friend ends up being disfigured."
Ren Yuan's pair of grey pupils widened in genuine shock and remained speechless, and at the same time, Purple nodded his head after listening to his Grandmother's bug words.
"Yes, don't hurt Mama Bug's face, or else his chance of seducing Papa Bug will decrease."
Although, Papa Bug's heart seemed to have already been stirred up, and yet, I can also sense that it wasn't enough to make Papa Bug push Mama Bug down without hesitation and always thinking of the consequences of crossing the line.
"You make sense, Older Sister, we need to take care of Yuan's charming face. After all, it's going to be what our third son will be seeing in his everyday life if the two of them finally get together."
"..."
So… Beautiful Madam, you are still secretly planning for me to take responsibility later on?

The Experimental Dungeon
Having all your memories erased and be reborn as a baby without any knowledge, or giving the job of managing a Dungeon without being its Core – a very easy decision for everyone, right? Right? Right? “I really should have remembered from all those fanfics and dungeon stories that those ROBs always screw with their mortal playthings” growls Claudia as she checked her Status for the umpteenth time. “How dare that... that...that manipulative thing did this to me… And no matter what extra options he gifts me with, I will NOT use them to create a hentai dungeon or anything like that” This will not be the usual dungeon core-type story found around here, but the main difference will only be explained in chapter 4 by the Dungeon Pixie. Also – despite the warning please don’t expect any explicit scenes in this story. The warnings are there because mature themes will be mentioned (and not only because the Higher Power provided some special options), but the MC is dead set on evading those options as she sees them as traps. So there are no explicit descriptions planned at all. If that changes I will give extra warnings in the chapter title, but I plan on handling things other ways. Later chapters might go a bit farther than the simple mentions in chapter 2, but don’t expect much more. Status Update 04. April 22 Writing Buffer used up, as said before I'm switching to one chapter a week on fridays. The new cover is the second placeholder, but what I really want will have to be commissioned and take a while. At least it is better than the map-part from chapter 4 that was the first placeholder.
