  Chapter 65: Wrist Lock

  After hearing Yi Xiuping's words, You Zhongbing sat there and didn't dare to say more. He was still afraid of his old man. Feng Xiyao also stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to say more. Ye Pingyu watched with a smile in his heart, thinking that this wealthy family was actually the same as their rural village. The naughty kids in the countryside were often scolded by their parents too. You Zhongbing should be one of those naughty kids, while Feng Xiyao probably belonged to the obedient type.

  Yi Xiuping finished speaking and, in front of outsiders, didn't say another word. He turned his head to continue chatting with Ye Bingyi. The two had been separated for many years, seemingly having endless things to talk about, all related to some scenes he encountered when he was in Jinhu Village.

  As soon as he thought of the past, Yi Xiuping burst out laughing, and when talking about past interesting things, he couldn't stop laughing. Ye Bingyi saw him so happy, his heart was also delighted. The other party is a big household in Beijing, now they can recall old friendships, take time to entertain him, this is a great favor! How can he not be happy?

  Feng Qin listened on the side, occasionally interjecting a sentence. Ye Cunli sat there thinking of what to say but couldn't think of anything. When she saw Ye Cunli's expression, she proactively said some simple words, and Ye Cunli began to talk non-stop about his family situation. Ye Bingyi pulled on his sleeve before he finally stopped.

  However, Feng Qian didn't mind Ye Cunli's words too much. She wasn't actually listening, but was observing Ye Pingyu. Ever since Feng Xiyao returned from Qingyun, she had felt a bit absent-minded, and after Ye Pingyu arrived, she became extremely happy. As the saying goes, "no one knows a daughter better than her mother", Feng Xiyao's little thoughts were still guessable by her.

  At this time, Feng Xiyao was very close to Ye Pingyu, chatting and laughing together. What kind of person is Ye Pingyu?

  As a prominent family in the capital, they would certainly not look at someone like Ye Pingyu, even if he was the grandson of Ye Bingyi. Although they had a relationship with Ye Bingyi, it didn't mean they could be on equal terms. From a social class perspective, they were in heaven while Ye Bingyi's family was on earth. In the past, Yi Xiuping may have also fallen to the ground, but that was an extraordinary situation during an extraordinary era. Now that they had returned to their former status, it was already quite something for them to take the initiative to contact Ye Bingyi and thank him for his kindness. However, if Ye Pingyu were to get involved with her daughter in any way, she would not agree to it.

  Ye Pingyu never thought that Feng Qian would have such thoughts, and he didn't have any of those ideas in his heart either. He also knew that Feng Xiuyao's family status was not in the same world as his, if he had such extravagant hopes, it would be simply muddled-headed, being friends was already good enough, if he still thought about further development, then he was foolish.

  Feng Xi Yao still has some feelings for Ye Ping Yu in her heart, but she doesn't know how to express these feelings. In short, there is a sense of dependence on Ye Ping Yu, and she feels safe when facing him, which is not the case when interacting with other boys.

  You Zhi Bing is a very casual person, and his interactions with Ye Ping Yu are purely friendly. He thinks Ye Ping Yu is quite interesting and warmly welcomes him. He doesn't think about the relationship between his sister Feng Xi Yao and Ye Ping Yu. As the second brother, he is used to interacting with women outside, so he wouldn't think about his sister having a boyfriend, besides, she's still in school.

  Feng Qin observed from where she was, not interrupting the conversation between the three of them. After a while, You Zhi Bing suddenly remembered that he wanted to arm-wrestle with Ye Ping Yu. As soon as Feng Xi Yao heard this, she exclaimed "Great!" In her opinion, Second Brother You Zhi Bing was a special forces soldier in the army, his skills were exceptional and his strength was also very great, he had never lost an arm-wrestling match before. And Ye Ping Yu seemed to have good skills too, if the two of them started arm-wrestling it would definitely be exciting to watch.

  Seeing You Zhi Bing wanting to arm-wrestle with him, Ye Ping Yu couldn't help but smile, and after a moment's thought, he didn't refuse. Feng Xi Yao smiled and pulled him aside, looking at Feng Xi Yao holding his hand, he felt a sudden electric shock on his body. You Zhi Bing got up and followed them to the side.

  Looking at the three people making a fuss over there, Yi Xiuping raised his head and took a glance, but didn't show any expression. Feng Qin saw Feng Xiyao holding Ye Pingyu's hand, her eyebrows furrowed, but she also didn't say anything.

  Coming to a place next door, You Zhībīng was clenching his fists and preparing to compete with Ye Pingyu. Ye Pingyu looked at him and said: "Brother You, I'm not your opponent, let's not compare anymore?"

  You Zhībīng burst out laughing and said: "Píng Yǔ, we're just having fun. Originally I didn't think of competing with you, but last time I saw your skills were pretty good. We can't compete in a fight, so I thought of arm wrestling. Losing this way won't hurt our friendship, right?"

  As soon as Ye Pingyu saw You Zhongbing's playful heart, he couldn't help but shake his head. People with such a personality are really not suitable for the officialdom, and doing business is probably just so-so. He's simply a playboy, but he's actually a good person.

  Feng Xi Yao also chimed in from the side, "Ping Yu, my second brother is being arrogant, you must win against him and let him know who's boss. As long as he loses, make him buy us gifts!"

  As soon as she said that, You Zhi Bing started arguing: "Little sister, are you going to team up with Ping Yu? Want your second brother to lose? Alright, if Ping Yu can beat your second brother, I'll give gifts to both of you!"

  The two siblings even made a bet. Ye Pingyu heard and said, "Forget about the gift, if I lose, I don't have any gift to give to Brother You!"

  "You'd better win, or you'll have to stay in the capital for a few more days. No need to bring any gifts, but my little sister won't get any presents if you lose, so you must win against me!"

  You Zhībīng was extremely confident, thinking that he would definitely win against Ye Pingyu. Otherwise, his identity as a former special forces soldier would be truly embarrassing to mention. He wouldn't even think about asking Ye Pingyu for any gifts.

  Feng Xi Yao agreed with this opinion beside him, cheering Ye Ping Yu on. You Zhi Bing saw his own sister cheering for an outsider and felt a chill in his heart, but since it was just for entertainment purposes with Ye Ping Yu, he didn't take it too seriously.

  Seeing that he couldn't win, Ye Pingyu thought for a moment, then rolled up his sleeves and said: "Yu Ge, I'm definitely no match for you, but it's okay to exchange blows. Go easy on me!"

  "You don't have to say so much nonsense, you're not necessarily going to lose to me, and my sister is cheering for you too!"

  As soon as he heard this, Ye Pingyu's courage rose immediately and said: "Good, Brother You, then I won't be polite!"

  As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Pingyu sat steadily there, preparing to compete with You Zhongbing in arm wrestling. You Zhongbing was very confident and didn't prepare much. Seeing Ye Pingyu ready, he also pulled up his sleeves and rolled them up.

  Similarly, sit well, put your arms on the table, and then stretch out your hand and say: "Ping Yu, are you ready? Let's start!"

  Feng Xi Yao stood right in the middle, looking at the two of them with a smile and said: "Are you ready? I'll say start."

  Ye Pingyu took a deep breath, originally he didn't have the idea of winning against You Zhongbing, but now he wanted to win. Winning not only would get him gifts, but also make You Zhongbing not dare to underestimate him. He knew You Zhongbing was very formidable, but he also had confidence. When he was young, his arm strength was astonishing, and most big kids couldn't beat him in an arm-wrestling match, Ye Ming was always defeated by him. After growing up, they rarely played this game, but unexpectedly You Zhongbing wanted to play it again.

  With a burst of strength, he used all the eight brocades he had practiced in secret, and the muscles on his arms bulged out. After You Zhi Bing stretched out his right hand, he first shook hands with him lightly, and felt that he couldn't be underestimated. The vigor could be felt as soon as they made contact.

  Originally didn't take it seriously, but at this moment Ye Pingyu's transmitted force made him shocked, his opponent was extremely powerful!

  Seeing the change on You Zhi Bing's face, Ye Ping Yu had an idea. Although You Zhi Bing was originally a special forces soldier, after returning from the army, he hadn't trained much and his strength had decreased somewhat. He didn't need to be too afraid; as long as he used all his energy to compete with him, it was possible that he could actually win against him.

  Feng Xi Yao looked at the two of them and said, "Alright, let's begin!"

  As soon as the fight began, You Zhi Bing took the initiative to launch a fierce attack, exerting his strength to press down on Ye Ping Yu, hoping to force him to surrender immediately. Ye Ping Yu did not expect him to make a move so quickly and was caught off guard, unable to muster up enough strength in time, allowing You Zhi Bing's hand to overpower his, but it had not yet completely reached the ground, so he couldn't be considered defeated just yet.

  Seeing You Zhībīng suddenly take action, Ye Píngyǔ can be said to have understood the style of a special forces soldier. He didn't have that kind of experience and lacked that decisiveness and bravery. However, what ultimately decides the outcome of the match is still strength; otherwise, even if one launches a surprise attack and succeeds in stealing the initiative, they will still end up failing in the end.

  Ye Pingyu held his breath, just as his hand was about to be pressed down, he secretly applied force, slowly maintaining the situation, not letting it lose control and admit defeat.

  Feng Xi Yao saw Ye Ping Yu being pressed down by her second brother as soon as he came up, and she was worried in her heart. Then she complained to You Zhi Bing: "Second brother, you were unfair just now! I had just finished shouting when you took action, and Ye Ping Yu obviously wasn't ready yet!"

  You Zhi Bing's face turned bright red with anger, thinking that they had already started and yet said they were not ready. If this was on the battlefield, wouldn't they have been killed off early? If Ye Ping Yu lost, it would be no wonder.

  This was just said in his heart, and he was still competing, so he couldn't open his mouth to speak, otherwise, with a change of tone, Ye Pingyu would turn defeat into victory.

  Seeing You Zhi Bing use up all his strength, Ye Ping Yu never gave up, but instead started to slowly gain momentum upwards. You Zhi Bing's strength was indeed great, but he came on too strong at first, and his later strength became somewhat insufficient. His one blow did not win the victory, and the subsequent strength was consumed too early. But as long as he held back his later strength and refused to give up, with time, he would have the opportunity to turn defeat into victory.
