War was a competition of strength and wisdom. But the most important thing was luck.
If Fang Yan didn't notice Zhou Fan's abnormality, if Zhou Fan refused to admit that he encountered the black-robed man and only said that he felt uncomfortable or that he felt uncomfortable when he saw Fang Yan — would the story have a different ending?
The real Soul-losing Attraction was fed into a rabbit's mouth by Fang Yan. The rabbit didn't die immediately after eating the Soul-losing Attraction, and it didn't look any different from before it ate the medicine.
Fang Yan understood that the other party had put in a slow-acting poison.
Seeing that the rabbit didn't eat, Zhou Fan asked Fang Yan if it was a prank.
Fang Yan didn't believe it was a prank. After so many life-and-death hunts, he knew that those people outside were far more vicious than he could imagine. There was nothing they couldn't do.
For a sensitive place like Swallow Fort, they could only use a slow-acting poison if they wanted to make such a big move. If the Fang family died tragically on New Year's Eve, the impact of this event would be too great. It wasn't something that ordinary people could suppress. No one dared to suppress it.
Fang Yan wasn't sure if the Fang family had other 'puppets', and he didn't know if someone was watching Zhou Fan and the Fang family.
If someone was watching, and Zhou Fan didn't carry out the task, they might make another move —
Therefore, he asked Zhou Fan to put the 'poison' in the soup pot according to the plan.
At the dinner table, Zhou Fan suddenly apologized to everyone and toasted them three times. This was Zhou Fan's impromptu performance.
At that time, Zhou Fan was still suffering from the poison. He wasn't sure if he could survive the night, and he wasn't sure if he could get the antidote from the black-robed man — although Fang Yan promised him that he would help him get the antidote.
However, the black-robed man was so powerful, and Fang Yan — he was just a young and clever kid.
In the hearts of ordinary people, bad guys were always more ferocious and terrifying than good guys.
Zhou Fan apologized to everyone for his behavior for so many years. Fang Yan was worried that he would mess up the show. Fortunately, he had been controlling his emotions and forcefully took back the topic. Therefore, when Fang Yan clinked glasses with him at the dinner table, he said that he thought he could still be saved.
Everything that happened after that was logical.
Zhou Fan's acting skills were off the charts. After everyone finished their soup, he used the excuse of going to the bathroom and ran into the wilderness.
Originally, Fang Yan thought that the black-robed man would not give the antidote to Zhou Fan so easily. The most likely scenario was that he would kill Zhou Fan.
He was going to die anyway, so why waste an antidote?
It turned out that bad people also had a side of them that kept their promises. If I say I'll give you the antidote, I'll give you the antidote. If I say I'll kill you, I'll definitely kill you.
Zhou Fan got the antidote, and Fang Yan blocked the black-robed man's attack and saved Zhou Fan.
After listening to Fang Yan's story, the whole family fell into a long silence.
"This is luck, and also a blessing." Fang Huwei sighed and said, "It proves that our Fang family should not fall, nor should we fail."
"Who is that black-robed man?" Zhao Chengxin looked at Fang Yan and said, "Do you want me to use my connections in Yan Jin to investigate?"
"That's fine," Fang Yan said. "Whether it works or not, we have to show the outside world that we were bullied —"
"It's better to do it sooner than later. I'll arrange it now," Zhao Chengxin said. "I'll take some people to the mountain to check."
"Second uncle, there's no need to check the mountain," Fang Yan said with a smile. "He's gone."
Fang Huwei nodded and said, "From what Fang Yan said, he's definitely gone. However, after daybreak, send a few good stalkers to take a look. Maybe they can find some clues. "
"Got it," Zhao Chengxin agreed and went to the yard to make a call. Obviously, he was going to use the Zhao family's power in Yan Jin.
"We have to find out who he is." Fang Hao's face was full of murderous intent. "We didn't poison him this time, but what about next time? What about the next time? It's really hard to eat and sleep with an enemy like him. "
Fang Huwei nodded and said, "What Fang Hao said makes sense. Our Fang family doesn't bully others, but we can't let others bully us for no reason. If we get slapped, we'll take it. If we get slapped a second time, we should at least ask why, right? "
The old man looked at Fang Yan and said, "Fang Yan, what do you think?"
"Grandpa, let me handle this matter," Fang Yan said coldly. "If we let him escape this time, he won't be so lucky next time."
"That's settled," Fang Huwei said. "Let Fang Yan handle this matter. It's getting late. Go and rest. "
Fang Yixing looked at Fang Yan and said, "Be careful."
"I will," Fang Yan said. "Dad, you go and rest. We still have to get up early tomorrow morning to pay New Year's greetings. "
"You have to come with us this year," Fang Huwei said. "We'll have to go to every household after coming back. Those who helped us before, go and kowtow to their elders. Those who bullied us before, practice with their juniors. Don't hide at home like a coward. "
Fang Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Isn't this bullying?"
"What do you mean by bullying? This is showing off our strength, "Fang Huwei said coldly. "The country also conducts military exercises from time to time. What's wrong with showing off our strength?"
"— —"
New Year's Eve was also the golden time to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new.
Before midnight, Fang Yan's phone began to ring. Most of them were from Rosefinch Secondary's students and colleagues in the office.
Zhu Jian and Li Mingqiang, who thought they were close to Fang Yan, called him personally. Zhu Jian's call was relatively simple. He only asked when Fang Yan would return to Huacheng and asked Fang Yan to go to his house for a meal and a drink. Fang Yan told them in advance that he would return to Yan Jing for the Spring Festival. They didn't contact Fang Yan during the holiday.
Fang Yan said he would return after the Spring Festival, so Zhu Jian said to go to his house for a drink on the 14th of the first lunar month. He was worried that Fang Yan would have an appointment on the 15th, and the 16th was the day school reopened. Of course, the third year students would start school on the 9th of the first lunar month, and their studies would be more arduous.
Li Mingqiang's call was much more intimate and polite. He also asked where Fang Yan's home was in Yan Jing. He planned to go to Yan Jing after the Spring Festival, mainly to bring his family and children on a trip. He also wanted to visit Fang Yan's and Fang Yan's parents and elders at the same time. He said that it was a courtesy that he should perform.
Fang Yan declined again and again. Only then did Li Mingqiang give up on the idea of going to Yan Jing to visit Fang Yan for the Spring Festival. One of the school's vice-principals was not feeling well. He had said before the Spring Festival that he would be retiring early this year. There were many people eyeing that position, and Li Mingqiang was the most powerful competitor.
There were three people who could decide that position. The school board member Lu Chaoge, the current principal Zhang Shaofeng, and the shadow principal Fang Yan. Li Mingqiang knew that if he had Fang Yan, he would have the votes of the school board member and the shadow principal. Even if Zhang Shaofeng objected, it would be useless.
Unfortunately, Fang Yan had already communicated with Zhang Shaofeng and made other arrangements for this position.
"Mr. Fang, Happy New Year. The person who secretly likes you. "An unknown number sent such a message.
Fang Yan thought of something and immediately dialed that number. The call went through, but it was an impatient boy's voice. "Who are you? Who are you looking for? "
Fang Yan hesitated for a few seconds and took the initiative to hang up.
Since the other party didn't want to expose himself, there was no need for him to probe aggressively.
At such an age, who didn't have a crush that sounded exciting but was actually sad and pitiful?
There was a joke on the Internet. It said that you might not remember who sent you a message during the Spring Festival, but you would remember clearly who didn't send you a message.
As time went by, it was getting closer to midnight. Fang Yan's phone was getting more and more busy.
Fang Yingying and Fang Haohan stayed by Fang Yan's side. Seeing that Fang Yan was busy answering messages and answering phone calls, the two of them felt a little sad when they looked at the phone in their hands.
They waited for a long time, but there was not a single message or phone call.
On such a special night, they were like orphans forgotten by the world.
Ding —
The phone in Fang Yingying's hand finally rang.
Fang Yingying was so excited that the fat on his face kept shaking. While Fang Yan was drinking water, he said very "discontentedly," "I don't know who sent me a message to wish me well. I hate this kind of cheap blessing method the most — they are not even willing to write a blessing, and the blessing message is copied and forwarded. Eight thousand people out of ten thousand receive the same message. It's a waste of money."
Fang Yingying opened his message in front of Fang Yan. There was only one message in the empty inbox, and the name of the message was so familiar: Fang Family Hero.
Fang Yingying was stunned for half a second and wanted to quickly hide the phone.
"Open it and see." Fang Yan held the teacup and said, "Let's see what Fang Haohan said to you."
"There's no need for that, right?" Fang Yingying said with a bitter face. "It's possible that Fang Haohan wrote a love poem to some girl, but this idiot accidentally chose the wrong recipient and sent it to me —"
"Love poem?" Fang Yan's heart of gossip was burning, and it was even more ferocious than the spinning of the heart of Tai Chi. "Open it and see. Otherwise, I'll do it myself. "
Fang Haohan shook his head vigorously, signaling Fang Yingying not to open the message.
"What are you shaking for? Do you think you're a roly-poly doll? "Fang Yingying said angrily. "The two of us are sitting together, and the straight-line distance is less than two meters. What can't we say directly? You just have to waste a message fee. "
Fang Haohan still shook his head, and he shook even more violently.
"Open it." Fang Yan's curiosity was aroused, and he said to Fang Yingying.
Fang Yingying had no choice but to take out his phone and open the message sent by Fang Haohan: Fang Yingying, Happy New Year! You also quickly send me a blessing message. Don't let Junior Martial Uncle see it! Remember, remember!
