BXBX NOVEL Chapter 168 - Go On, Hit Me!
Ye Ling relaxed after hearing what she said. Either way he had faith in Ye Mo not betraying his wife.
After doing the dishes, Liu Duo went back inside for yoga. Ye Ling resumed sewing insoles under the roof.

Ye Yang and his brothers made quick work together. Half a day had passed and they had weeded two thirds of their paddy field.
“Yang, Liu, I’m heading to Li Wazi’s place for a while. He’s alone and needs help,” Ye Mo intended to help out his friend, now that they had got their work covered.
Ye Yang nodded in agreement. Friends should help one another.
“Yo, Mo. Are you off to reconcile? Geez, I thought you’d cut ties with him, and now you’re being friendly again!” Ye Liu teased.
Ye Mo wasn’t happy that his brother had managed to see through him, but he would not acknowledge the fact, “Who’s reconciling with whom? He should apologise first!”
With that, he sped up in the direction of Li Wazi’s paddy field to avoid any more enigmatic mockery from his brother. Li Wazi’s field was at least twenty meters away from theirs.
Ye Liu shook his head as he watched Ye Mo leave. He thought, Little Mo sure is keen on face-saving! He might as well admit he’s going to reconcile. It’s not like there’s anything to lose!
Ye Mo arrived at Li Wazi’s paddy field and coughed, attracting his attention. Li Wazi merely glanced up at him and continued weeding without giving him the time of day.
Ye Mo furrowed his brow at this, clearly crossed. “Li Wazi, you dare dismiss your dear brother?”
“Brother? I never had a brother. My mother gave birth to me and only me!” Li Wazi mocked him lightly without looking up.
They had clearly severed ties, and here he came claiming brotherhood!
Liu’s strange enigma was fine and all, yet this fellow was stranger still. Angered, Mo entered the paddy field and marched towards Li Wazi, colliding with him. “You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? Do you really not want to be brothers anymore?”
Li Wazi stumbled a bit when Ye Mo crashed into him. After regaining his footing, Li Wazi eyed Ye Mo and said, “You were the one who severed ties. What’s this brotherhood you speak of? You can’t take back your words! You should know that. Haven’t you been to school?”
Don’t think I’ll be afraid just because you’re loud! Hmph... You dare severe ties, so I dare get back at you! Li Wazi mumbled indignantly.
“Li Wazi, I’ll beat you up if you make a fuss over this!” Ye Mo furiously balled his fingers into a fist. He had said what he’d come to say. He didn’t want to ruin their friendship, yet Li Wazi was making things difficult.
Li Wazi raised his arms and rubbed his ears, “So what if I’m making a fuss? Go on, hit me!”
With that, he turned his head towards Ye Mo, daring him to punch.
Ye Mo was shaken by Li Wazi’s sudden roar. This man was usually honest and not known for his temper. When did this fellow get the gall to go against him?
Since they were young, Li Wazi had always followed him. He had never been loud, let along roared.
Face with the shout, Ye Mo thought, Such a petty man – as fussy as a girl!
“Fine, we’re brothers. I lost my temper that day, but don’t take it seriously,” Ye Mo surrendered and said.
“You’re going to be a father soon, how can you raise your kid if you’re still so petty and fussy? Right...”
Ye Mo spoke of many things as he peacefully helped with the weeds. Li Wazi was no longer mad at him, but he didn’t bother with him either.
It used to be Li Wazi nagging in Mo’s ears, but now the tables had turned, and Ye Mo was doing all the talking. In Liu Duo’s words, Li Wazi had up and become the boss!
