Red Wall. Mystic Department.
The fragrance of tea wafted everywhere, but no one lifted it to drink.
The young chief looked at the old man sitting opposite him and said in an extremely respectful tone, "Sir, are you really going to let him go just like that? Aren't you going to reconsider? "
Sir laughed out loud and said, "You speak as though it's a huge piece of fragrant steamed bun. Back then, I didn't want to enter, but Elder Zhu pulled me in. Now that I'm leaving, are you not going to let him go? "
The young chief looked at the old man apologetically and said, "I heard from Elder Zhu that back then, you had the chance to step into the Heavenly Dao realm, but your mental barrier was to sever all ties with the mortal world. You weren't willing to return to seclusion, so you retracted the foot you had taken. This delay … lasted for dozens of years. The country owes Swallow Dock, and even more owes you. "
"It's all fate." Sir smiled and waved his hand. With a nonchalant look, he said, "It's fate that they were born in Swallow Dock. It's also fate that I became Swallow Dock's Sir. I was at fault regarding Bai Xiu's matter. I had long wanted to resign, but it was an eventful period for Swallow Dock. Now that peace has returned, I naturally have to leave. I'll use the remaining time to plant crops and pick up dung. Who knows, if I have no desires, I might be able to take that final step before I leave — "
Sir sighed lightly and said with a regretful tone, "I've practiced martial arts all my life, but I can't go in and see what that world is like — I still feel indignant."
"I won't hold you back if you wish to leave, Sir. But do you have a successor in mind, Sir? This time, Sir, you have to help keep a close watch. "
"I originally had my eyes on Fang Yan," the teacher said aloud.
The young chief laughed and said, "The person I originally had in mind was Fang Yan, but it proves that the person you like now isn't him, right? How did that kid make you angry? "
"I had a conversation with him a few days ago," Sir said.
"He wasn't willing?"
"He didn't say he wasn't willing." Sir smiled helplessly. "He ran away from home," Wang Yao said.
"What?" This time, even the young chief was shocked. "Ran away? When did that happen? "
"Forget it, don't worry about him." The teacher waved his hand again and said, "This kind of immature, steady, and irresponsible man would not be able to bear such a heavy responsibility. I have another candidate in mind."
"Who is it?" the young chief asked.
"Don't underestimate the enemy," the teacher said.
"Do you think he's suitable?"
The teacher nodded with absolute certainty and said, "There's no one more suitable than him. If he hadn't perished in the battle with the Dragon God, I wouldn't have accepted Bai Xiu — the position of Master should have been his twenty-six years ago. "
The young chief thought for a while and said, "Since you think it's possible, then don't underestimate the enemy. He didn't run away, did he? "
"Leave him to guard the door. Even the dog he brought back ran away. " Mister praised, "From this, it can be seen that the Azure Dragon, Don't Underestimate your enemy. You are a mature, responsible, and responsible man. You are worthy of such a great responsibility."
The young chief slapped the table and said, "That's him. I'll call him and ask him to come see me. "
Monsieur grinned, as if he had done a great thing — —
Fang Yan did run away.
Not only did he run away, but also his grandfather Fang Huwei, his mother Lu Wan, his wife Ye Rou, and Fang Yingying and Fang Haohan.
There was also a dog.
Fang Yan didn't want to take the dog, but the dragon didn't get out of the car. Fang Huwei glared at him and asked him to go out for some fresh air. So Fang Yan had to leave a seat for him in the car.
Ever since his grandfather Fang Huwei became crippled, he had never left Swallow Dock.
When Fang Yan's father Fang Yixing was still alive, Lu Wan and her husband would go on a trip from time to time. After Fang Yixing passed away, Lu Wan had never gone out of the village in recent years.
Moreover, since Fang Yan and Ye Rou were newly married, they should go on a honeymoon or something, right?
So Fang Yan and Ye Rou discussed and simply drove a big car to the south. They had fun along the way, and they would go wherever they went.
They would let his grandfather and mother relax and see the scenery they had never noticed along the way.
They went all the way to the south, and their final destination was Huacheng.
This was the happiest trip Fang Yan had ever had, and it was also the most comfortable days for him in so many years.
In the past, Fang Yan had a heavy responsibility and a blood feud, so he had to be careful and try his best every step he took.
"Your bitch can't hide your ugliness. You are lonely like a dog on a cold night!"
This was the true portrayal of Fang Yan.
Fang Yan was lonely, even lonely. No one was more tired than him, but he tried hard to smile. He wanted everyone to feel that he was a happy person when they saw him.
So Ye Rou liked him, Qin Yitian liked him, Lu Chaoge liked him, Phoenix liked him, Jiang Qin liked him, Ye Fengsheng liked him, Li Xiaotian liked him, and many other people liked him.
He was a fun person, and it was interesting to be friends with such a person. Wasn't that enough?
Life was so f * cked up, so why did he have to put on a bitter face?
Lu Wan was happy to see Fang Yan smiling like a child, and she secretly wiped her tears a few times.
Ye Rou understood her mother-in-law's feelings and held her mother-in-law's hand tightly to comfort her every time.
Life would get better, and the days would get sweeter.
That was what everyone in the Fang family thought.
When the car neared the boundary of Huacheng and reached the exit of the highway toll station, they found more than ten luxury cars parked outside.
All of them were Bentleys, quietly leaning against the roadside, looking luxurious and low-key.
After Fang Yan paid the toll, the railing was put down, and the doors of the Bentleys opened at the same time.
Whoosh —
One by one, men and women in luxurious clothes walked out of the cars.
The leader was the big boss of Qingyun Corporation, Du Qing, and his goddaughter, Li Ya. After he got out of the car, he paused for a moment. Then, Liu Shumei from Lanshan Valley signaled for this group of rich heirs to come out of the car. An unusually eye-catching woman also got out of the car at the same time. She was Jiang Shangxin, the current helmsman of the Jiang Family.
Fang Yan had never expected her to appear in the welcoming crowd.
Following behind them were some forces that were attached to Qingyun Corporation or the few big families. They also tried to find a chance to be familiar with him.
They heard that this most powerful young man in Huacheng had the habit of slapping people in the face. They thought that if they accidentally offended him in the future, he would at least show them some mercy on account of their previous meeting?
Du Qing wanted to invite Jiang Shangxin and Lanshan Valley to walk in front. According to the strength of his disciples, they were far more powerful than his Qingyun Corporation.
However, how could Jiang Shangxin and Lanshan Valley not know that Fang Yan and Du Qing were as close as brothers? In order to save his goddaughter, Du Qing surrendered himself to the police. In the end, he gritted his teeth and did not say a single bad word about Fang Yan. If he couldn't take it, Fang Yan would have been arrested and sent to the police station. How would he have the chance to seek help from the Yan Capital?
Hence, under the gaze of the toll booth staff and some passing drivers, a group of people walked towards a Buick MPV that was slowly driving out.
Fang Yan stopped the car by the roadside and rolled down the car window to look at Du Qing and the rest. He smiled bitterly and said, "Is it too high profile?"
"We were also worried about this, so we reduced the number of people several times. In the end, those who could come were those who couldn't be reduced anymore. If we reduced them any further, we wouldn't be able to come. Moreover, they were given the same cars and didn't drive too many sports cars. It seems to be considered low-key, right? "
"…"
Jiang Shangxin saw the speechless look on Fang Yan's face. She smiled and said, "You and Miss Ye are on your honeymoon, and it's the first time that Old Master and Auntie Lu have returned to Huacheng in so many years. As the younger generation, we have to do our part, right?"
"Exactly. If not for the fact that we didn't want to disturb your mood, we would have gone to the Yan Capital to welcome you. "Lanshan Valley laughed out loud. It felt so good to bet on the right treasure.
"Everyone is a family, and we don't have to be so distant. However, I still have to thank all of you." Fang Yan looked into everyone's eyes and said, "Besides, it feels good to be so ostentatious. It's not bad to come once in a while. "
Everyone laughed.
Old Master Fang Huwei and Lu Wan got out of the car to express their gratitude. Du Qing held Old Master Fang Huwei's hand and said, "Old Master Fang, we have already arranged dinner. Shall we drink with you tonight?"
"No." Old Master Fang Huwei waved his hand and said, "Two glasses is not enough."
Everyone laughed again.
Ever since the rise of the Fang Family, the depression in Old Master Fang Huwei's heart was swept away. Now, he was especially spirited and even looked younger than before.
Jiang Shangxin and Li Ya's public relations target was Lu Wan and they tried their best to show concern for her.
On the contrary, Ye Rou was given the cold shoulder —
Actually, it was mainly because no one dared to go near her.
Ye Rou's personality was no different from before she got married. She was indifferent and had an expression that said, "I'm very cool and no one should talk to me."
Fang Yan liked this about her. Not everyone could live a peaceful life like her.
After accepting Du Qing's invitation, everyone went to have a welcoming dinner.
After the dinner, Lan Shanggu said that he had already prepared accommodation for everyone.
Ye Rou said, "There's no need for that, Fang Yan has a place in Huacheng."
Lu Wan looked at Fang Yan and asked, "You bought a house in Huacheng?"
"No." Fang Yan looked awkward and said, "It's that … I used to stay with someone else …"
"It's clean and spacious. Let's stay there tonight." Ye Rou made her decision.
"…"
When Lu Chaoge received Fang Yan's call, she was also shocked by this decision.
She had never panicked like this even when she was being pressured by the Jiang Family. She said anxiously, "Fang Yan, are you sure you want to stay here? Or do you want me to book a hotel for you? "
Fang Yan smiled bitterly and said, "It's better to stay at your place. There are some things I should let you know."
"… Okay." Lu Chaoge's voice trembled slightly.
When Fang Yan drove his family over, Lu Chaoge was already waiting at the door.
Fang Huwei saw Lu Chaoge and said with a smile, "Good girl. It's been hard on you. "
Lu Wan went forward and held Lu Chaoge's hand and said, "Sorry to bother you."
"Don't mention it." Lu Chaoge was a little nervous. "Just treat it as your own home."
Ye Rou and Lu Chaoge looked at each other and then walked away from her without any expression.
Fang Yan walked to Lu Chaoge and said, "It's been hard on you."
Lu Chaoge's eyes were red, but she quickly recovered and said softly, "I'm actually very happy that you can come — I thought this day would never come."
Fang Yan held Lu Chaoge's hand and said, "Let's go in."
The family sat down in the living room. The servants were busy making tea. Lu Chaoge stood in the middle and introduced the room arrangement.
"Mr. Fang lives on the east side of the third floor, where the air is the best. Aunt Lu lives on the west side of the third floor, where it's convenient to enjoy the moon. Miss Ye and Fang Yan live on the second floor, where Fang Yan used to live — "
"You're pregnant." Ye Rou glanced at Lu Chaoge's belly as if nothing had happened and said softly.
"—"
The living room fell into a dead silence.
Everyone stared at Ye Rou with their eyes wide open, and then shifted their attention to Lu Zhaoge.
"Ye — Miss Ye —"
"You're pregnant." Ye Rou said again. His attitude was one that would not stop until his words shocked everyone to death. "It's Fang Yan's, isn't it?"
"I —" Lu Chaoge's face was pale and she couldn't even speak clearly.
Ye Rou yawned and said, "I'm tired. I'm going to bed."
After that, she got up and went upstairs.
Fang Huwei was stunned for a long time. He looked at Ye Rou's back and then at Lu Chaoge and grinned.
"Good kids, all good kids — I'm old and can't stay up late. Hero, help me go upstairs. I wish the red flag will fly all over the world, and I'm afraid that even the sea of fire and the mountain of knives will rush forward. I can't wait to turn the flying snow into spring water, ah ah ah ah ah — "
"—"
Lu Wan looked at Lu Chaoge and asked anxiously, "Chaoge, is what Wen Rou said true?"
"I — it's not true." Lu Chaoge denied.
"Chaoge." Fang Yan looked at Lu Chaoge and said, "Just say it like it is. Don't hide it."
"Fang Yan —" Lu Chaoge's eyes turned red and big tears flowed down. She said, "I don't want to. It's different from what I thought. I don't want to bring you any trouble. How about I go abroad? I'll take him abroad. We can go far away, and no one can find us. "
"No." Lu Wan said resolutely. "You're a woman, and now you're pregnant. Where do you want to go? You'll soon get pregnant. How can you take care of yourself at that time? Besides, if it's our child, we — we still have to bear the responsibility. "
Lu Wan pinched Fang Yan and said, "Fang Yan, what a good thing you've done. Say something."
Fang Yan looked at Lu Chaoge and said, "You didn't go to Yan Jing this time. I know you're hiding something from me. When Xiaomeng talked to me, she wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. I've already guessed some of it. I've talked to Wen Rou about our things. Today she offered to live here and pointed out the fact that you're pregnant, which shows that she wants to accept this child. You don't have to go, and no one else has to go. However, you have to put aside your work first. You can't work as hard as before. Have a good rest in the future. "
Lu Wan nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes. Yes, have a good rest. I'll stay and take care of you. "
"Thank you." Lu Chaoge choked with sobs and said, "Thank you."
Lu Wan's eyes also turned red. She held Lu Chaoge and said, "Silly girl, why are you saying thank you? It's us who should thank you. Our Fang family is sorry for you —"
"There's a charity event at ten o 'clock this morning. Mr. Buffett and Mr. Bill will also attend —"
"There's an economic conference at three o 'clock in the afternoon. Premier Zhang specifically invited you to attend —"
"You have to fly to Bo 'ao at five o' clock in the afternoon. You have a 15-minute speech at the GCE conference at eight o 'clock —"
The woman in the white uniform raised her head from the magazine and said, "Cancel all the activities in the afternoon."
"But Premier Zhang —"
"Let Mr. Lin go on my behalf."
"Yes, Miss." The secretary knew this young lady's style very well. If she said she would go, she would go no matter what. If she said she wouldn't go, she wouldn't go. Even if the Premier invited her, she wouldn't go. "But Miss, do you have any schedule in the afternoon?"
The woman smiled and said, "I'm going to see someone secretly."
"Is that person more important than the Premier?"
"Of course," the young woman said without hesitation.
The car stopped on Maple Avenue. Qin Yitian, in a white windbreaker, opened the door and got off. He said to Mu Ying, "You can go back. Withdraw all the people in the dark. "
"Miss, for your safety —"
"Do you still need to worry about my safety when I'm with him?"
Mu Ying thought for a moment and gestured for the secretary to stop. He then got into the Rolls-Royce and left.
The leaves were yellow and withered, and the ground was covered with maple leaves.
The sound of high-heeled leather boots clicking on the leaves was like the sound of Qin Yitian's happy mood at the moment.
It was another autumn!
Qin Yitian liked autumn because the scenery in autumn looked golden and was a festive color.
Ding —
His phone rang in his pocket.
Qin Yitian took out his phone and saw a message: Dragon's Reverse Scale.
Qin Yitian's lips twitched and he replied with four words: Touch it and you'll die.
Pa —
A young man jumped down from the tree and said, "The password is correct. Queen, please give me your mission."
"The mission is to go shopping with me." Qin Yitian reached out his hand and said.
The young man walked over and held Qin Yitian's hand.
"Hey, what did the female overlord say when you came out?"
"She said that although she can ignore what she doesn't see, you shouldn't go too far. Who wants to ask someone else's husband out seven days a week?"
"I don't care" Qin Yitian raised his head and said, "She was the one who came to me and asked for a deal. She said that as long as I can help you defeat the Generals, she'll turn a blind eye to what happened between us. Does she want to go back on her word now?"
"She didn't go back on her word, it's just that she's pregnant, so it's inevitable that she'll be a bit emotional —"
"She's pregnant?"
"Yeah."
Qin Yitian took Fang Yan's hand and turned to leave.
"Where are we going?"
"Why should she get pregnant before I do? I don't accept this, I want to get pregnant too — "
"— —"
