"I … If he doesn't do anything to me, I will naturally be grateful to him." Chen Hanyan hesitated for a moment, but still said.
"Are you not moved?" Chen Long suddenly said, "I am moved, but you are not moved at all?"
"Father, I am a little moved, but I am his aunt. I can't really have anything to do with him, right?" Chen Hanxue said with a face full of shame.
"Hanxue, do you have any prejudice against Chen Jiu?" Chen Long continued, "The current Chen Jiu is no longer the little brat of the past. He is now a great hero, a great hero, a peerless figure who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the Emperor. This time, if it weren't for you, how could he be cursed by the world? I believe that his feelings are real. Don't you have any thoughts about him? "
"Father, I don't." Chen Hanxue bit her lip, still embarrassed to admit anything.
"Ah, then it will be hard on Jiu 'er. He didn't care about his life and didn't fear death. I'm afraid that everything he did will be in vain." Chen Long sighed and felt endless regret.
"Father, I …" Chen Hanxue heard Chen Long's sigh and immediately felt very sorry for Chen Jiu. She couldn't bear to treat him like this, but she really couldn't say it out loud.
"Hanxue, tell me the truth. Do you really not have any thoughts about Chen Jiu? He did this for you. I'm afraid that even a heart of stone would be moved by him, right? "Chen Long couldn't help but ask again.
"Father, you have to know that I am his aunt. I can't." Although Chen Hanxue didn't directly answer, her words undoubtedly made Chen Long understand the deeper meaning of her words.
"Hanxue, if you weren't his aunt, would you choose to be with him?" Chen Long suddenly asked again.
"How can I not be his aunt?" Chen Hanxue's face was full of astonishment and confusion.
"I will drive you out of the family and then let Tian He take you in. This way, won't your seniority be the same? Besides, there is no need to have so many misgivings between a sworn sister and a sworn brother, right? "Chen Long immediately suggested.
"Father, this … how can this be?" Chen Hanxue's face was also full of shock.
"Hanxue, this matter is feasible, and it can also shut the mouths of the people in the world. Now the main thing is to see how you feel about Chen Jiu. If you really don't have any feelings for him, I won't force you." Chen Long asked one last time, completely respecting Chen Hanxue's wishes.
"I … I'll listen to father's arrangements." Chen Hanxue was embarrassed, but she didn't refuse again because Chen Long's suggestion was indeed a solution.
She was concerned about Chen Jiu and couldn't bear to see him suffer any more. In the end, Chen Hanxue agreed. What Chen Jiu had done for her was worthy of her desperate love.
"However, Father, I still have a request …" Just as Chen Long and the others were laughing happily, Chen Hanxue suddenly said, "Can you delay this matter for a period of time so that I can get used to it?"
"Alright, we'll do as you say." Chen Long and Chen Tianhe nodded with gratification, feeling as if they had fulfilled their greatest wish.
"Father, then I'll leave first …" Chen Hanxue was too embarrassed to stay any longer.
"Hanxue, you should change the way you call me. From now on, I'm no longer your father." Chen Long smiled and waved his hand. "I'll now announce to the world that you're expelled from the family."
"Yes." Chen Hanxue nodded and left with a red face.
"Father, aren't we deceiving ourselves by doing this?" Once Chen Hanxue left, Chen Tianhe immediately asked helplessly.
"Jiu 'er has caused such a big ruckus. As his elders, what else can we do if we don't take some responsibility for him? Are we really going to let him marry his aunt? " Chen Long's face was flustered and exasperated. "That little brat, now that he's so capable, he really doesn't let people have peace of mind."
"Father, why don't you teach him a lesson and make him repent?" Chen Tianhe couldn't help but say.
"Repent for what? Hanxue is a good girl. Even I wouldn't be willing to let her marry someone else. "Chen Long's words left Chen Tianhe dumbfounded.
"Tianhe, don't be so shocked. Although Jiu 'er has gone a bit overboard, can't you tell that Hanxue truly does have feelings for him? Rather than dragging it out and ruining their happiness, it's better to cut the Gordian knot and directly accomplish something good," said Chen Long in a scheming manner.
"Father, if we do this, how will the world view our Chen family?" asked Chen Tianhe with an awkward expression.
"How will they view us? The winner is king while the loser is a bandit. Our Dragonblood family's rise is just around the corner. Do you think a supreme empire will be looked down upon by others? " Chen Long gently smiled and said without any worry, "Jiu 'er's current strength is enough to give him the confidence to do as he pleases. He doesn't even fear the Xuanhuang family. Who in the world would dare to truly disobey him?"
"But there are many people cursing him right now." Chen Tianhe was still worried.
"Although there are curses, what about praises? There's probably quite a few, right? Tianhe, you can't just look at the bad side. You should always look at the good side. I feel like Jiu 'er's actions are his true nature. He's a true man. Once everyone's satisfied with cursing him, they'll all understand him, "said Chen Long.
"Father, is it really okay for us to do this?" Chen Tianhe still had some doubts in the end.
"How will we know if we don't do it? At the very least, once we do it, the world won't be able to say he's messing with the rules, right? "Chen Long clearly wasn't very confident. However, this was all he could do for Chen Jiu.
"Alright, then I'll immediately arrange for people to announce this to the world." Chen Tianhe nodded and left to handle this matter.
That night, Chen Jiu sat on his bed in the Pure Heart Residence. He had a helpless expression as he lowered his head to look at the immense power before him. He really couldn't believe it.
As a man, he actually felt a headache because of the enormous size of this place. He was probably the first person in history to do so.
The aftereffects caused by the increase in power were still present. Chen Jiu felt very uncomfortable. He had originally gone to find Chen Lan, but that obedient little girl refused to let him go this time. She thought that he was too big and said that she couldn't stand it anymore.
There was no other way. Although Chen Lan was a little girl, she still had her own dignity. Since she didn't want to, Chen Jiu naturally couldn't force it.
Very disappointed, Chen Jiu returned to his room. He wanted to stroke his hair, but when he held it, he felt that he couldn't hold it anymore. He was dumbfounded.
He was dumbfounded. He finally knew why Chen Lan was afraid. Even he himself was a little afraid of this thing now.
Bang! Bang! Just as Chen Jiu was in a dilemma, the sound of someone knocking on the door suddenly rang out, causing him to be abruptly overjoyed.
