"Mr Dean, I've come to pick you up."
Sandro appeared from the side as Dean came to the door of the Temple. There was excitement in his eyes. He didn't expect that Dean would resolve such a big crisis so easily. Moreover he would become famous again.
Dean looked at him: "Where's the old patriarch?"
"Father is resting at home. He's not in good health." Sandro replied: "The old patriarch has prepared a celebration feast for you. He's waiting for you to come back." Although his age was more than enough to be Dudian's father, but at the moment he was very polite in front of Dudian. There was even some respect. This scene surprised people, but considering Dudian's current identity and the situation of the Ryan family, they were relieved.
Dean frowned as he felt the attention of the people around him. He looked at Sandro: "Let's go back first."
"Alright." Sandro was relieved. He led the way and opened the door for Dean.
Dean got on the carriage and whispered to Sandro: "You come up too."
There was a trace of joy in Sandro's eyes. He quickly agreed and got on the carriage. He saw that Dudian had sat down and ordered the coachman to return to the Ryan Castle.
The carriage went along the hillside. The ground was a bit uneven as it bumped and shook.
Dean sat on the chair. He looked at Sandro who was sitting opposite to him: "Did the old patriarch instruct you to come here?"
Sandro didn't expect him to ask about this. He was startled for a moment, and his expression changed slightly. He hesitated for a moment, but still said honestly, "I came here on my own to help you."
Dean indifferently said: "You should learn from your father. Although he is old, but his vision is never wrong."
Sandro was embarrassed. He understood the meaning of Dean's words: "I will …"
"Also, pay attention to your attitude towards me when you are outside." Dean calmly said: "My identity has risen from a hunter to an architect with potential. You are the future successor of the Ryan family. You should show your attitude. Don't expose our deep relationship. The more the enemy knows about us, the smaller your power to fight back will be."
Sandro's face was hot. He couldn't refute Dean's last sentence: "I know. I will in the future."
Dean looked at him but didn't continue to talk. He opened the curtains and looked at the scenery outside.
Dean saw Old Fulin standing at the entrance of the Ryan Castle. Old Fulin was waiting for him. Old Fulin's shoulders were covered with warm velvet. He stood at the entrance with crutches. He looked at Old Fulin and sighed in his heart. He pushed the door and got off the carriage.: "It's windy outside. You don't have to wait for me at the entrance."
"It's okay. I just came out." Old Fulin smiled.
Dean was speechless. Aunt Lan looked at Dean as she heard Old Fulin's words.: "Mr Dean, you are finally back. Master has been waiting at the entrance for a long time. He didn't listen to anyone. His body …"
Old Fulin slightly waved his hand to interrupt her words. He smiled at Dean: "I know that you won't do things that you are not sure of."
Dean helped him to sit on the chair: "It's good that you know."
Old Fulin noticed Sandro who was behind Dean. He sighed and looked at Dean: "Let's eat first. It's getting late and everyone is hungry. Third brother, tell us about the Shrine."
Sandro bowed: "Yes."
Under Old Fulin's command, all the servants moved to bring the dishes to the table.
Dean helped Old Fulin to move to the table. Sandro, Jake, Hugh, Lina and other juniors took their seats. Sandro told the story of the Shrine to the crowd. The crowd applauded when they heard that Dean had won.
The butler suddenly came to Old Fulin's side and whispered: "Master, the people from the Sterling consortium have come."
Old Fulin was surprised. He looked at Dean and said to the butler: "Bring them in."
The butler nodded. After a moment, a young woman dressed in bright jewelry came into the hall. She saw Old Fulin and Dean. She smiled and came over: "Old patriarch, you are still so healthy."
Old Fulin looked at her and smiled: "Are you a child of Chai's family?"
A trace of surprise flashed in the young woman's eyes. She immediately smiled and said: "Old patriarch, your memory is very good. My father is Chaisto. I'm his fourth daughter. You can call me Rosie. I came in a hurry and disturbed your meal. This is a small gift as an apology." After saying that, she handed over a delicate small box and opened it. There was a fine platinum necklace inside.
Several women who were sitting in the middle of the table stretched their necks to see the necklace in the box. Their eyes lit up with excitement.
Old Fulin faintly smiled: "You are a junior so I won't blame you."
Rosie stared at him as she saw that he wasn't tempted. She put the gift box on the table: "Old patriarch, this junior has come to look for Mr Dean. But Mr Dean is one of your people so it's best to talk in front of you and Mr Dean. I have heard that Mr Dean has recently created a weapon called 'military crossbow'. Our Scott consortium wants to buy the production and sales rights of this crossbow."
Dean was surprised. He didn't expect that the Scott consortium would get the news so quickly. Although Chai family was one of the three major shareholders of the Scott consortium, but it would cost a lot of money to buy the items from the 'Temple of Elements'. It showed the efficiency of the Scott consortium and the depth of their information channels.
Old Fulin and Dean looked at Rosie: "This is Mr Dean's private matter. He has the right to decide by himself. You can talk to him directly."
Rosie was relieved as she heard this. She was worried that Dean would be bound by the contract with the Ryan consortium. She would have to pay a lot more to grab the meat from the hands of the old fox.
