Although Cyan Dragon was not troubled by past events, it was only after tonight that he truly let go.
He and Ren Ling left Xiaofan's house, chatting and laughing, presumably having found the belonging he had been seeking.
Meanwhile, Chen Baicheng also got up to say goodbye. After all, there was a group of brothers waiting outside in the cold wind. He couldn't stay much longer. Though he wanted to know just how powerful this guy was, knowing one fact was enough, the rest wasn't important.
"Mei'Er, I'm heading back, you..."
"I'm not going back."
"Not going back? Huh? Fine, you've got a boyfriend now and don't want your dad, okay… Xiaofan, don't bully my daughter, now that you've become so capable, I can't even scare you. If you bully my daughter, I really wouldn't know what to do with you."
"Hey, how could I dare? You've got hundreds of brothers who aren't to be messed with." Xiaofan said with a faint smile.
"Exactly, as if he could bully me…" Chen Mei'Er said playfully, scrunching her nose at Xiaofan.
"Hahaha, alright, alright… I'm leaving. You young folks enjoy yourselves… hey, no need to see me out, it's cold outside." Chen Baicheng walked out the door cheerfully, but...
"Oh my dear grandson-in-law, dear grandson-in-law... When will you come see your grandpa?"
"This shameless old man, what's he shouting?" Chen Mei'Er blushed deeply when she heard her father singing nonsense after going out.
"Hey, Brother Cheng, this son-in-law is quite something, huh?"
"Exactly, exactly, gosh, even Long Dinfeng doesn't dare act rashly."
"Didn't you see earlier, Long Dinfeng's face turned crimson red."
"That's right, how could the son-in-law I choose be wrong, right? Our Mei'Er's judgment is always spot on. I finally understood why she never found a boyfriend before; he wasn't a fit. Now look at Ye Xiaofan, isn't he perfect? Come on, everyone, let's go have a drink."
"Hey, thanks, Brother Cheng."
In the mansion, after everything was over, Li San and the others naturally rushed to meet up with Lin Hongbin and the rest. Tonight's fight seemed inconclusive, even if a few were beaten, no one could really say for sure. Well, we'll have to settle it over drinks then.
So now, only these two were left in the house.
"Hey, why are you sitting there? Go back to the room and sleep."
"Go to hell, who's that direct?"
"Well then... lady, it's late at night, you've had a tiring day, how about retiring to bed?"
"Hahahahaha..." Chen Mei'Er burst into hearty laughter, getting up and leaping straight into Xiaofan's arms: "Carry me inside."
"Alright."
Gently lifting her, this little devil lay obediently in his arms.
Her delicate face blushed faintly red, even though it wasn't the first time, every time they got close, her heart would race uncontrollably. It felt like her whole body went limp.
"Were you worried today?"
"A little bit."
"Just a little bit? You even said we'd run abroad to hide."
"Well, I didn't know you could handle the Long Family. I didn't expect the man I chose to be so incredible, hehe."
"Of course, I have lots of other impressive skills too, like..."
"Ahahaha, no, it's ticklish. This small lady has already learned it well, I beg the hero to spare me..."
'Bang...'
The bedroom door closed, and the night passed just like that. Long Tianjue should have learned his lesson too, next time, he better not fall into Xiaofan's hands again.
Location, inside Chen Mei'Er's entertainment club.
"Aiya..."
"What's with you, Ren Ying, all startled and panicky."
"No, I suddenly realized something was odd during the fight just now, did you feel it?"
"What oddness? Are you trying to dodge this drink?"
"No, no, when fighting with those people earlier, I felt that hitting one or two of them didn't knock them down as it should have, yet they got back up. It felt somewhat similar to dealing with Mutants in XG facing off with the FBI back then, except those Mutants couldn't even be hit by bullets. These ones are much weaker. I forgot to mention it to Xiaofan earlier."
"Oh come on, you're overthinking it. Maybe you've been slacking off in training recently, come on, drink up..."
"Hey, you guys... alright, alright, drinking..."
Was it really just Ren Ying's imagination? The matter had passed, and there was no way to verify it. Of course, this trivial issue might indeed be mentioned again in the future.
The Long Family...
"Order everyone, don't provoke Ye Xiaofan again, also, tell them not to mess with Chen Baicheng. Find some old traditional Chinese medicine doctors to come and take a look at Tianjue's hand. Also, check the status of the brothers involved in the experiments tonight, regardless of how late it is, send me the report once it's out."
"The report is already out."
"That fast?"
"Yeah, Master, since I knew you were concerned about this, I had the doctors check those five people first. Their injuries are not serious, just some head concussions, completely fit for a second round of experimentation."
"Very good, speed up the process. The Long Family absolutely cannot be looked down upon by anyone, especially this Ye Xiaofan. That I couldn't handle him today doesn't mean the Long Family will never be able to handle him. Humph..."
"Yes, Master."
Elsewhere, inside Zhang Yuxuan's home.
He waited until past 3 a.m. without sleeping, just to find out if Ye Xiaofan met his end at the hands of the Long Family.
Finally, the phone rang.
"Hello."
"Young Master Zhang, we found out, the Long Family has withdrawn, and Ye Xiaofan is perfectly fine sleeping at home."
"What? Are you sure you got the information right? The Long Family just let that Ye Xiaofan go so easily?"
"Absolutely, but what exactly happened on-site is impossible to find out, all the Long Family members are tight-lipped, it's impossible to inquire much.
"Is Ye Xiaofan really that sinister? Alright, you guys can all head back and rest."
"Yes."
Even the Long Family can't do anything about Ye Xiaofan? What kind of background does this guy have?
The Long Family's silence was expected, a shameful night like this, of course, wouldn't be shared with outsiders. Let's just let this matter fade into obscurity.
On the third day, the Long Family finally found an old Chinese medicine practitioner skilled in acupuncture to release the restrictions on Long Tianjue's injury. Clearly, Ye Xiaofan only intended to give Long Tianjue a warning, without actually planning to cripple his hand. But, if there's another warning ignored, next time, it might be for real.
"Grandpa..."
"Don't provoke Ye Xiaofan anymore."
"Why?"
"Because even I can't chew him. If it happens again, I fear even the Long Family can't protect you."
"But... Grandpa, I can't just swallow this grievance."
"Revenge is a dish best served cold, learn to tolerate, if you can't tolerate this, how can you accomplish great things? Do your usual tasks, until the Long Family steps up further, you absolutely shouldn't provoke him. Do you understand?"
"I understand. Grandpa, is there some secret thing our family is doing lately?"
"Haven't I already told you? When it's time for you to know, you'll naturally know. Learn, someday when I grow old, your father will definitely take over, and you will definitely follow him. If you don't learn to be smart, I don't mind changing the successor." The reason for the stern lesson is that Long Dinfeng still has expectations for his grandson. If he didn't ask a single question, it would mean he had been totally given up on.
