Several people answered "yes" without even turning their heads, and then walked out with unsteady steps.

After going to the old house to pay respects that day, Ning Yuchu and Lian Xi did not meet again before the funeral. However, no matter how busy she was, Lian Xi would take a picture of her eating and send it to her, captioning, "I am eating well."

The implication is that I miss you very much, but I won’t send you a good night message. He goes to bed late and knows that she goes to bed early, so he doesn’t want to disturb her.

Ning Yuchu also knew that Lian Xi was busy, but he also heard some things from Ren Xu. Those forces that were originally controlled by Lian Zhenye and were heading to Hai City were naturally restless.

Lian Xi was very busy and it was inconvenient for her to call.

She didn't want to be disturbed by a phone call from her while he was busy discussing with those people.

What she had to do was to keep him from being distracted by her and not cause him any trouble.

Most of the forces that originally belonged to Lian Zhenye and came to Hai City these days have the same idea.

If they want them to work for Lian Jia, they must prove that Lian Jia is still worthy of their trust.

A man can achieve great things only if he is ruthless, and he should avoid being too sentimental. But it happens that those who practice martial arts are the most sentimental.

Many men would delay important things for the sake of what they have between their legs. Lian Wentao is the kind of man who is so promiscuous for the sake of women that he cannot be trusted. Lian must not fall into his hands.

But be careful not to be too affectionate, as having weaknesses can lead to mistakes. Although Lian Zhenye did not make mistakes because of a woman, that woman had a profound impact on him.

Ning Yuchu's press conference involved people from the Lian family. They had already investigated Ning Yuchu's background thoroughly and were even more worried that Lian Xi would miss out on important things because of his feelings.

What he meant was that although Lian Xi was capable now, he was most likely to be manipulated when it came to women. They were unwilling to work for the Lian family anymore, and the Lian family would not need to assign them tasks in the future.

Although Lian Jiaheng was devastated by Lian Zhenye's death, he would never show weakness in front of these people who used to be so servile to him.

"If you hadn't followed our master and given you a way out, you would have been beaten to death or become a street thug. You wouldn't have the status you have today."

"Even your going to another city to develop was the master's idea. Now that the master is gone, you no longer want to work for the Lian family. You shamelessly talk about love, but you can't control your lower body and look for women outside."

"Since Boss Lian is young, everyone thinks they have the ability to challenge him. I'm going to say this today. I won't say a word about your choices. But if you choose the wrong path, don't come to me for help later."

After Lian Jiaheng vented his anger, he walked out of the room without looking at any of them and returned to his own room.

He couldn't stay any longer, for he was afraid he would burst into tears.

Because of the pain, and because he remembered the days when he fought side by side with Lian Zhenye, he felt extremely hateful when he saw the faces of these people.

But no matter how much hatred he felt, it could not compare to the pain of having lost his master.

The emptiness in his heart made him burst into physiological tears which were beyond his control, so he could not show weakness in front of them, let alone bring shame to his master.

Lian Jiaheng's departure made those people silent for a while. Although what Lian Jiaheng said was true, how could they be willing to listen to him talk about the past when he was so powerful now?

But Lian Jiaheng was once a person that they were afraid of, but people will eventually grow old, and when they are old, they will no longer be the same as when they were young.

It is true that they had received support and protection, but they had also been developing in other cities over the years, and had to pay a lot of money to Lian Zhenye every year. For them, they had already repaid him.

Up to now, they are just doing things according to their conscience, but they are not people with conscience.

Several people looked at each other to see what the other meant. They could all turn against each other, but it couldn't be just one person who turned against others while the others didn't, otherwise the person who turned against others would never be able to leave the old house today.

But none of them wanted to be the first one to turn against him. They didn't know how Lian Xi would treat the first person to turn against him, so they were still waiting and watching.

But Lian Xi didn't want to waste any more time. His deployment had been completed and there was no need to waste time with them.

He glanced at them and saw some people who hesitated for a moment and then looked him in the face, while others deliberately avoided his gaze.

Lian Xi said coldly, "Tell me your choice. The old man will be buried tomorrow. I don't have time to waste with you here."

The person closest to Lian Xi is named Zhao Wuyou. Before he met Lian Zhenye, his name was Zhao San. It was just a random name given to him because he was the third child in the family.

It was after he became famous following Lian Zhenye that he felt ashamed to be called Zhao San, so he changed his name. He also wanted a good implication, hoping that he would have no worries about money, food and clothing for the rest of his life, so he named himself Wuyou.

He has been successful for the past few decades, and no matter how you think about it, he made the right decision to follow Lian Zhenye.

Looking at Lian Xi now, he thought about it carefully. Although Lian Xi was young, the things he did in Hai City were more or less because of a woman, but he still approved of his means.

Moreover, Lian Xi is young. He is already in his fifties and has a son and a daughter. The women outside and the one at home do not interfere with each other. He lives a comfortable life. Why should he dig his own grave at this age?

It is better to continue to rely on the training master, so that your own path will still be smooth in the future, and your descendants can continue to rely on the training master. This always has more advantages than disadvantages.

After sorting out his inner thoughts for the last time, he stood up and bowed deeply to Lian Xi.

"Zhao Wuyou is willing to continue to follow the Lian family. I have followed the master to my current position. I am deeply grateful for his kindness and will never forget it."

After he finished speaking these words in a sonorous and powerful voice, he raised his body and looked at Lian Xi, and then said: "I believe in Mr. Lian's ability. I have learned about your work abroad. It is not something that ordinary people can do, and you have achieved a lot. You are worthy of my support, so if there is anything you can do for me in the future, please feel free to ask, and I will do my best to complete it."

His surrender caught the others off guard, and those who wanted to turn against him became even more hesitant, for fear of being the first to be exposed.

But Lian Xi would not give them too much time to weigh the pros and cons. He nodded slightly at Zhao Wuyou, motioned for him to sit down, and then looked at the others.

"I want to hear your answer within one minute."

These two sentences are like a time bomb. Whether they reply or not, the bomb will explode in a minute.

But soon some people made a decision and came out to take sides one after another. However, a few decided from the beginning that they would draw a line between themselves and the Lianjia from now on, so they chose to tear their faces off and stand out.

They first explained that they had worked hard over the years and had repaid the kindness of the Lian family. They would no longer work for the Lian family and hoped that the Lian family would show them some mercy.

Lian Xi was not surprised by their answer, but his eyes were filled with disdain and ridicule, "Even if you want to work for me, I won't keep you here any longer."
