"Let's go, Zhuqing. Come with me to see Father. Let him meet his daughter-in-law." Lu Yuan stood up and extended his hand to Zhu Zhuqing, who was beside him, as he spoke softly.
"Okay!" Zhu Zhuqing placed her hand in Lu Yuan's and gently nodded.
"Uncle Yan, let's go," Lu Yuan said softly.
"Yes, master. Master, please come with me!" Yan Shaozhe nodded and led the way.
Lu Yuan held Zhu Zhuqing's hand and followed behind Yan Shaozhe. Dugu Bo and Ma Xiaotao followed behind Lu Yuan and Yan Shaozhe.
Lu Yuan understood what was going on when he felt the warmth from Zhu Zhuqing's hand and the sticky sweat. He squeezed Zhu Zhuqing's hand and gently asked, "Zhuqing, are you nervous?"
Zhu Zhuqing gently nodded and said, "Lu Yuan, do you think the old man won't like me?"
"You worry too much. My old man is a very nice person. He can't be happier to see you. He must be secretly happy to have such a beautiful daughter-in-law like you," Lu Yuan said with a smile.
"Really?" Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Lu Yuan.
"Of course it's true. When I took senior sister to see the old man last time, he was very happy. If he can accept senior sister, he will naturally be able to accept you."
"And you're so obedient, sensible, and natural. The old man will definitely like you," Lu Yuan said.
"I'm not as good as you say." Zhu Zhuqing blushed slightly from Lu Yuan's praise. She was a little embarrassed.
"You're just that good. Among Cher, senior sister, and you, you're the most sensible. You're so smart. Others don't understand you, but I've been with you for so long. How can I not know?"
Lu Yuan said softly. Indeed, among Chihiro Snow, Hu Lena, and Zhu Zhuqing, Chihiro Snow was the wisest and the most scheming. However, Zhu Zhuqing was the most sensible and knew how to manage a relationship the best.
When he was with Zhu Zhuqing, regardless of whether she was well-behaved or threw a tantrum occasionally, Lu Yuan's heart would always be touched. When he was with her, it was the most authentic and also the most romantic feeling.
Moreover, when facing the other two, Zhu Zhuqing did not fight or snatch. Instead, she was reasonable. This made Lu Yuan like her even more. Zhu Zhuqing was definitely a smart woman.
In fact, Hu Lena was the most innocent. She wasn't scheming at all. Her emotions could be seen through with a single glance. However, she won in that she didn't compete for anything. She was very open-minded, and only cared about her relationship with Lu Yuan.
Speaking of which, the three of them had their own strengths. That was why Lu Yuan couldn't forget them. He loved them deeply.
Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Zhu Zhuqing's face was still a little red, but the corners of her mouth could not help but curl into a smile. Lu Yuan's praise naturally made her happy.
At the same time, the nervousness she had when she was going to see the Fellows disappeared.
.....
The Law Enforcement Hall!
Under Yan Shaozhe's lead, Lu Yuan and the others arrived at the Law Enforcement Hall.
The Law Enforcement Hall had the fewest people among the three halls. However, they were the most elite.
Even the guards on duty at the entrance were Soul Kings.
"Greetings, Your Highness. Are you here to see the Dragon Emperor? I can pass the message on your behalf. "The guard on duty hurriedly bowed when he saw Yan Shaozhe.
"There's no need. I'm just leading the way. The hallmaster is here to see Dean Fei." Yan Shaozhe glanced at Lu Yuan as he spoke.
"Hallmaster?" The guard was shocked at first. After that, he looked at Lu Yuan, who was dressed in white. He immediately regained his senses and hurriedly knelt on one knee. "Greetings, hallmaster."
"There's no need. Where's my father?" Lu Yuan waved his hand and asked.
"Dean Fei is playing chess with the Dragon Emperor in the courtyard." The guard replied.
"Alright, I understand. Continue guarding. Uncle Yan, let's go." Lu Yuan said.
"Yes, hallmaster!"
"Yes, master!"
They walked into the Law Enforcement Hall and passed through the main hall outside. After passing through a series of empty rooms, they finally arrived at a quiet courtyard.
The decorations in the courtyard were very simple. Other than some flowers and plants, there was only a stone table and stone chairs.
There was a grape trellis above the stone table. The grape trellis was flourishing, and the dark purple grapes on it shone with an alluring luster.
There was a chessboard on the stone table. Two figures were seated on both sides of the table.
One of them was wearing a black robe. He wasn't very tall, but he exuded an aura that resembled a towering mountain. It was the Dragon Emperor Douluo, Long Xiaoyao.
The other person was wearing a grey robe. He looked ordinary, and seemed to be around fifty or sixty years old. His aura wasn't very strong, either. However, Lu Yuan's eyes immediately teared up when he saw this person.
He was Lu Yuan's adoptive father. He was the former Dean of Notting Academy, Fellows.
Given Long Xiaoyao's cultivation, he could already sense Lu Yuan's familiar aura when Lu Yuan and the others stepped into the courtyard. A look of joy immediately surfaced on his face.
"Master!" Long Xiaoyao put down the chess piece in his hand and stood up. He hurriedly bowed towards Lu Yuan.
Long Xiaoyao's actions naturally attracted the attention of the Fellows. He immediately turned his attention over. When he saw Lu Yuan's familiar appearance, the Fellows's body stiffened. The chess piece in his hand slipped, but he didn't realize it.
He was still staring at Lu Yuan.
"Elder Long!" After nodding at Long Xiaoyao, Lu Yuan turned towards the Fellows. He couldn't hide the agitation in his eyes. "Old man!"
"Obuchi, is it really you?" The Fellows' voice was trembling. As he looked at Lu Yuan's tall figure, his eyes were also filled with tears.
"It's me, old man. I'm back." Lu Yuan's eyes were filled with tears as he spoke softly. He was also very agitated when he saw the Fellows again.
The last time he saw the Fellows was five years ago. Five years. He hadn't seen the Fellows for five years. He really missed him.
At the same time, he couldn't help but scold himself. He wasn't able to be filial to the Fellows. Instead, he had to worry about him over the past year.
He really deserved to die.
As he looked at the figure of the Fellows, Lu Yuan's heart trembled. At the same time, he told himself that he had to be filial to the Fellows in the coming days so that he could have a more comfortable life.
He had to fulfill his responsibility as a son.
"You're finally back. It's good that you're back!" The Fellows said softly. He sized up Lu Yuan carefully and revealed a look of gratification in his eyes. "You've grown up a lot over the years. You've also matured a lot. You're handsome and talented. Good, very good."
As he looked at Lu Yuan, the Fellows' eyes were filled with love and concern.
