In the car.
Si Wenshan rubbed his hands together and frowned. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.
Si Yin glanced at the pack of cigarettes. Si Wenshan quietly put it away and looked at Si Yin.
"Dad, if you have something to say, just say it." Si Yin's voice was soft and she looked cute.
"Then I'll say it?" Si Wenshan looked at his daughter and hesitated.
"Hurry up and say it!" Si Yin said.
"I'll say it, my dear daughter. What's your relationship with Xiao Bai?"
"What relationship? We're teammates. Good friends. He takes care of me like an older brother. What kind of relationship do you want? "Si Yin looked at her father in confusion.
In the past, her father would never talk about such things with her.
No, he would talk about it occasionally.
"Baby, is there a guy who's pursuing you? Tell Dad, I'll break his legs! "
"My dear daughter, you can't be like your cousin. Secretly dating at such a young age. Puppy love won't end well! Look at that poor boy, Liu Zhiyuan. How can he be worthy of your sister? "
"Little Yin, remember Dad's words. All the boys who approach you have ulterior motives! There are no good people! They only covet your beauty. No one cares about your inner qualities! "
Yes, they all said the same thing.
Hence, when Si Yin heard her father ask about her relationship with Xiao Bai, she answered casually and became wary.
She looked at Si Wenshan sternly. "Dad, I'm telling you, you can't go looking for trouble with Brother Bai. I have nothing to do with him. We've been through so many things recently. It's annoying enough. Don't add to our troubles, okay? "
After saying that, Si Yin's face turned a little red, as if she couldn't bear it. She whispered, "Dad, I know you're doing this for my own good, but I'm not a kid anymore. My teammates take good care of me and spoil me, but they all treat me like a kid. But do you know? I don't like it. I want to truly blend in with them. I want to truly become one of them, not just a spectator. So, Dad, please don't worry. Your daughter … is not that stupid, nor is she that weak, okay? "
"Uh …"
Si Wenshan nodded subconsciously, then looked at his daughter with a strange expression. It was a little hard to accept that such mature words would come out of Si Yin's mouth.
He had always felt that his daughter hadn't changed much since she was young.
Cute, super obedient, super cute.
But only today did he realize that although his daughter still looked so cute, super obedient, and super cute.
However, he already had his own thoughts, and had unknowingly … become mature.
This made Si Wenshan feel very uncomfortable. It was as if his little lover, who originally belonged to him, was about to fly away.
But when he thought about what his wife said to him today, Si Wenshan couldn't help but have some other thoughts.
"Don't spoil and restrict your daughter all day long. Don't hold her in the palm of your hand, afraid that she'll melt, keep her in your mouth, afraid that she'll be scared, and don't allow her to do anything. She's grown up, and she needs her own space and world. "
"As for the problem with her bloodline, as long as that child, Xiao Bai, is around, there won't be too much of a problem. At critical moments, a few control talismans will be enough. You have to let her release that kind of power, so that she can gradually learn how to control it. She's a natural Spirit Warrior. You're trying your best to restrict her, that's not love, that's selfishness! "
"If you never let her release that kind of power, sooner or later, once she's stimulated and the power of her bloodline explodes, the consequences might be catastrophic. The biggest possibility is that you'll lose her forever."
"Also, didn't you always say that my sister is stupid? She didn't make use of such a good resource like Purple Cloud, but instead left her daughter in a poor and remote place like Hundred Flowers City. Let me tell you something today. Your brain can't even compare to one of my sister's! "
"There's only one reason why she left her daughter here! It's that child, that child, Xiao Bai. It's a pity that there's no way to guide this matter, and that girl, Chae Yi's heart has long been tied to that child, Liu Zhiyuan. Although he's also good and quite excellent, to be honest, the current him is far from worthy of Chae Yi! "
At that time, Si Wenshan couldn't help but ask, "Why have you never mentioned these things to me?"
His wife retorted on the spot, and he was speechless.
"My sister has never mentioned it to me before."
Well, you're the head of our family, and you're in charge of everything. You're … big, whatever you say is right!
However, the information that he learned from his powerful wife and his even more powerful sister-in-law made Si Wenshan keenly grasp something.
The little guy, whose spiritual power wasn't very good, but who was so handsome that he, a slave to his daughter, felt insecure … seemed to be very complicated!
No matter how much he spoiled his daughter, no matter how unwilling he was, deep down in his heart, he understood that there was no daughter who would never marry.
He only spoiled his daughter, not a pervert.
At first, he didn't take Shirō Makino seriously. He was just a little boy who didn't have anything special about him other than his good looks.
With such a low spiritual power, even if he was an apprentice of the Talisman Artist, he wouldn't have a bright future.
Even if he had some fame in Hundred Flowers City, Hundred Flowers City was too small!
In such a small pond, if he couldn't even be a king, how great would he be if he walked out one day?
But now, he had no choice but to take that child seriously.
He believed that his wife would never lie to him. In fact, the words that his wife said to him in front of him might have been meant to remind him of something!
However, there were many things that even husband and wife couldn't be so straightforward.
They couldn't just tell him directly: Surnamed Si, that Xiao Bai is a huge gold mine, hurry up and let your daughter dig for him!
What would that become?
Would he still want his dignity?
In fact, the fact that Song Xingyu was willing to leave the child in Hundred Flowers City could make his wife subtly remind him of the child's importance.
That already explained too many problems!
Which rich family in the empire had the surname Bai?
Si Wenshan thought for a long time but couldn't think of one.
Of course, there were countless rich families in the empire. With his status, he might not know all of them.
In any case, someone that Song Xingyu's daughter valued so much couldn't possibly have no background!
Song Xingyu had originally wanted to leave Hundred Flowers City with Ji Chae Yi and go to Purple Cloud, but for some reason, Chae Yi had stayed behind.
He remembered that he had discussed this with his wife. At the time, his wife also thought it was strange, saying that for some reason, her sister had agreed to Chae Yi's grandparents and left Chae Yi here.
Now … it seemed like that was the case!
Heh!
Si Wenshan couldn't help but chuckle.
He looked at Si Yin with a gentle gaze. "My good daughter, actually … Dad doesn't really dislike you dating boys. After all, after all, after all, you think you've grown up. But it has to … it has to be like Xiao Bai, you know? Other boys can't match up to you in terms of appearance! Yes, appearance is very important! When Dad chooses a son-in-law, appearance is number one! "
Si Wenshan stumbled, his emotions very complicated.
On one hand, he felt uncomfortable, but on the other hand, he seemed to have an inexplicable expectation — if his daughter could really marry Xiao Bai in the future, he definitely wouldn't be bad!
Don't call him vulgar, there was no parent in the world who didn't want their children to find a good family.
In the end, even Si Wenshan felt that he was too quick-witted!
He didn't dare to guarantee anything else, but in terms of appearance, he had never seen anyone who could surpass that kid …
Si Yin blushed and looked at her father, dumbfounded. She said shyly and angrily, "Dad, are you okay? What nonsense are you talking about! "
…
…
When Shan Gu returned home, the elders were just about to take turns to give him a lesson when the Shan family's elder suddenly came out.
With just one sentence, the elders, who had been rubbing their palms and preparing to start cursing, scattered like birds and beasts.
"What do you know! The daughter-in-law of the Ji family and the daughter of the Song family were willing to abandon their children in a remote and desolate place like Hundred Flowers City. Have you thought about the deeper reason? This time, she came back from out of town without any warning, just because a few children caused some trouble? Use your poor brains and think about it! How big of a deal is it? If you understand, then you understand. If you don't, then get lost! "
Those people couldn't understand, so they just left without any hesitation.
Shan Gu was overjoyed, although he didn't really understand.
But he knew that the elder was on his side!
That was enough.
Very satisfying!
…
…
After Liu Zhiyuan returned home, he was somewhat silent.
Song Xingyu actually came back!
She hadn't said anything about him and Chae Yi. But because she didn't say anything, Liu Zhiyuan felt especially pressured.
It was like a huge mountain was pressing down on him!
The mountain's name was Song Xingyu.
He was much more mature than his peers, and he clearly knew that according to his status, he wasn't worthy of the daughter of the Ji family, let alone the granddaughter of the Song family.
His talent as a Spiritual Warrior was only average among the Fairies, not to mention the Ancestral Dragon.
So he worked very hard in his cultural classes and other areas that could improve his overall qualities.
It could even be said that he worked a little too hard.
No one knew how much hard work he had put in behind the scenes, and he didn't need others to know.
He only hoped that one day, he could stand in front of Song Xingyu and promise her, "I will take good care of your daughter. Please leave her to me."
But now, he really didn't have the confidence.
Liu Zhiyuan's father was an official in Hundred Flowers City, and his position was neither high nor low. His grandfather's family was quite powerful, but … it was very tense.
He didn't want to put his mother in a difficult position. Moreover, even if his mother was willing to put down her pride and go back to her family to admit her mistake, that cold family might not help him.
So he decided not to mention it.
The person who was going to bring Liu Zhiyuan back today was his own great-uncle.
Liu Zhiyuan had a very good relationship with this uncle since he was young. His uncle was only a few years older than his father, even though he was of a higher seniority. All along, he was very casual when he interacted with a mature child like Liu Zhiyuan.
"Why? Feeling a little depressed?"
"Yes, I feel that I'm too weak. No matter what, I'm too weak." Liu Zhiyuan admitted. "To be honest, I can't wait to grow up. I hope that time can pass faster. Only when I grow up can I have the chance to realize my dreams and ambitions."
"You … Even though you're mature, you're still a child." His uncle sighed and looked at Liu Zhiyuan. "Haven't you realized that your teammate, Xiao Bai, is a huge gold mine?"
"Him? A huge gold mine? "
Liu Zhiyuan was slightly stunned. He said thoughtfully, "He's indeed very talented. To be honest, if not for his low mental strength, I would really feel inferior when I'm with him. He's a super genius in terms of understanding talismans! His ability to control talismans is not like that of someone with low mental strength. If not for the fact that the machine can't make mistakes, I would really … "
"Really my ass!" Liu Zhiyuan's uncle teased and laughed. "I'll teach you a lesson today. Your classmate, Xiao Bai, is not simple! As for how he's not simple, don't ask me. I don't know, and I don't dare to ask. Anyway, you have to remember my words. Build a good relationship with that child. Maybe you can save ten years of hard work. "
Liu Zhiyuan didn't resist like other teenagers. Instead, he looked at his uncle thoughtfully. "Xiao Bai … is that powerful?"
"I think he's more powerful than you think!" Liu Zhiyuan's uncle looked like he was in his forties. He was gentle and elegant. He played with a purple clay teapot in his hand. He said lightly, "When Qin Ranran held her concert, there was an accident. Sun Heng fell from the sky. At that time, I couldn't see who he was helping. But today, did you notice who took Xiao Bai away? "
"I don't know the woman, but the man … is our school's director, Sun Yuefeng. Sun Yuefeng …" Liu Zhiyuan paused. He seemed to have thought of something. "Our school's director … is Mr. Sun's?"
"He's Mr. Sun's son." Liu Zhiyuan's uncle laughed. "That strong lady is Mr. Sun's daughter. She's the vice-principal of Hundred Flowers Art School. Her name is Sun Yuelin. Now, do you understand? "
Liu Zhiyuan took a deep breath. "You mean, during Qin Ranran's concert, Mr. Sun Heng took action to protect Xiao Bai? Now that you mention it, it seems to be true. This time, Chae Yi said she wanted to go to her house to discuss it. In the end, Xiao Bai brought us to Mr. Sun's house. But Xiao Bai told us it was because he cured Mr. Sun … "
Speaking up to here, Liu Zhiyuan's tone became sluggish again. He leaned back and said with sudden realization, "I understand! He's good at talisman medicine! "
"You don't understand. There are many things you don't understand! Of course, I, your uncle, didn't see it clearly. But I know that kid will be great in the future! Go, child. You are classmates, teammates, and brothers. It's not shameful to rely on your brothers! We didn't take the initiative to befriend him after knowing his identity. It's because you didn't know anything when you met him and became friends with him! This friendship is hard to come by. "
Liu Zhiyuan's uncle looked at his grandnephew with a smile. "Do you know why everyone likes to go to famous schools? Even if you're a slacker, as long as you step into the door of a famous school, the classmates around you will be a terrifying amount of resources! As long as you're popular and have a wide network of connections, then just these are enough for you to have an inexhaustible supply of resources in this lifetime. "
"I understand. Although it's utilitarian, this … is actually life. You're right. Luckily, when he became my brother, I didn't know all this. This is my fortune. "
Liu Zhiyuan looked out of the window. It was already late at night. A faint and somewhat helpless smile appeared on his face.
But the look in his eyes became more determined.
I must become a real strong person who doesn't wield a knife!
