Stealing the Pen: Kirin's Primordial Lotus
Chapter 289
After Xie Yuchen and Hei Xiazi left quietly, Wu Erbai seemed to be cast under some strange magic. His whole appearance seemed to have changed. The previous complicated expression on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a resolute and indifferent look.
He opened his mouth slowly, his voice low and firm, and said: "I will no longer ask about anything concerning Wu Xie. No matter what situation he encounters, whether he lives or dies, I will no longer interfere." There was an indescribable sense of alienation in these words, as if the once close bond between him and Wu Xie had been forcibly severed.
At this time, Wang Pangzi's eyes flashed with helplessness and worry, and he silently looked at Wu Xie who was stunned. Wu Xie's face, which was originally full of vitality and energy, now looked a little pale, and his eyes were full of confusion and loss, as if the whole world was collapsing at this moment.
Fatty Wang felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart. He knew very well that this was an internal dispute within their Wu family. As an outsider, even if he had a close relationship with Wu Xie, he could not really intervene.
But seeing Wu Xie like this, he couldn't help but walked forward, patted Wu Xie's shoulder gently, and comforted him: "Don't be like this, Wu Xie, although I don't know what the conflict between you and your second uncle was about, this is your Wu family's family affair after all. I'm just an outsider, so I can't get involved in anything. But don't worry, no matter what happens, I will stand firmly behind you."
Wu Xie raised his head slightly, tears flashing in his eyes, his throat choked, but he didn't know how to respond to Wang Pangzi's comfort. There was a depressing atmosphere in the air, as if a storm was about to come, and the conflict between Wu Xie and Wu Erbai was like a fog, shrouding everyone's heart, making it difficult for people to see the direction of the future...
Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling watched carefully from the beginning to the end, like two focused detectives, not missing any details, and finally keenly noticed this extremely subtle place. It turned out that they found that the second son of the Wu family, Wu Erbai, who lived in seclusion, seemed to have extraordinary abilities and could see the location of Xie Yuchen and Hei Xiazi who were affixed with the invisibility talisman. And the fierce quarrel between Wu Erbai and Wu Xie that they witnessed at this moment was most likely not accidental, but a play carefully designed and deliberately made by Wu Erbai, and its purpose might be to let Xie Yuchen, or those present, see it clearly.
"Haixian, you must quickly investigate who the second son of the Wu family has had contact with recently, and make sure you get all the relevant information for me." After Hua Yu decisively removed the magical water mirror, he immediately called a man named Zhang Haixian.
Zhang Qiling stood quietly by his side, not saying a word but always accompanying him. He comforted him softly, "Don't worry too much. No matter what happens next, I will always be by your side and will never leave you."
Hearing this, Hua Yu slowly raised his head, a hint of worry and uneasiness in his eyes. He looked at Zhang Qiling quietly, then lowered his head slightly, and silently leaned his head on Zhang Qiling's warm and solid chest, praying silently in his heart, hoping that all this was just his excessive speculation and worry, and that everything would return to calm.
Xie Yuchen returned to his temporary residence in the village and gently closed the door. A quiet atmosphere instantly enveloped him. He frowned slightly, a trace of contemplation flashed in his eyes, and then began to arrange the crucial matter of ancestor worship in an orderly manner.
Although the people buried in the ancestral tomb here were not from his Xie family, he was recorded in the Zhang family genealogy after all, and could be considered a member of the Zhang family. Moreover, he had been here when he was a child, and the people in the ancestral tomb did not refute it, which meant that they also agreed that he was a member of the Zhang family.
However, he did not directly state his true intentions, but cleverly used the seemingly reasonable excuse that Wu Xie was determined to find the truth to quietly carry out the ancestor worship.
"Young Master, rest assured, I will never let anyone know what I am doing." Xie Da's loud and firm voice echoed in the room. He patted his chest confidently, as if he had everything under control. Xie Yuchen looked at Xie Da, who was usually humorous, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. The corners of his mouth could not help but rise slightly, and he burst out laughing.
"Okay, get to work! This year's year-end bonus will be doubled. I'll talk to the finance department when the time comes." Xie Yuchen said softly, his eyes revealing his trust in Xie Da. When Xie Da heard that the year-end bonus would be doubled, his smiling face was even more delighted, like a blooming flower. He kept muttering all kinds of auspicious words, and his cheerful tone seemed to infect the air of the whole room.
The black bear who looked like a mysterious ghost in the dark night stood there steadily, watching the surprising scene in front of him with a sharp gaze. In his deep eyes, there seemed to be a fleeting but very obvious surprise. Before this, he had never met such a person who was so good at flattery. Even in his heart, he couldn't help but secretly think that even in this field of flattery, he seemed to be a little eclipsed and inferior. He shook his head helplessly, and secretly sighed in his heart: In this vast world, there really is someone who is better at flattering than him, black bear. This is really too incredible!
Seeing this, how could Hei Xiazi sit there peacefully as usual? He pushed Xie Da away like a gust of wind, and mercilessly drove Xie Da to do those trivial tasks, shouting: "Hurry up, don't dawdle here and delay our subsequent trip."
After Xie Daji left reluctantly, Hei Xiazi immediately walked to Xie Yuchen's side with light steps, rubbing his hands quickly and skillfully, as if by magic, with a amiable smile on his face, staring at him straight.
Xie Yuchen slightly raised his inky black eyebrows, his eyes revealed a hint of doubt and vigilance, and looked at him and said: "Heiye, please don't say anything more. Looking at your expression, I know very well in my heart that you definitely have no good intentions. I have important things to deal with here, Heiye, please do as you please, and don't bother me again."
The smile on Hei Xia Zi's face froze, petrified and shattered bit by bit, and then was blown away by a gust of wind.
"Uncle Huaer, you can't hurt the blind man's heart like this! The blind man really loves you and it is evident to all!" The black blind man jumped up and directly grabbed onto Xie Yuchen's legs. As Xie Yuchen moved, he was dragged on the ground.
"Get out of my way!" Xie Yuchen was so angry at Hei Xia Zi's actions that his face almost turned red.
Hei Xia Zi and Xie Yuchen were playing and fighting, Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling were acting gentle and soft, and Wu Xie was just a poor little guy.
Jude Kao was still on his way, and Old Mrs. Huo was also heading towards Banai.
The weather in Banai is about to change. The calm weather now is just preparing for the storm to come more violently.
