Chapter 896 cruel reality

"Oh, what an Optimus Prime, it's not worth mentioning."

Wan Jianglei smiled and waved his hand, looking at Xiao Feng.

"Dr. Xiao, Donglan often talks about you to me."

"You are said to be a rare talent capable of both literary and military skills. When I saw you today, you certainly lived up to your reputation."

The words were beautiful, but the look in his eyes was a bit contemptuous.

A young man in his twenties, no matter how powerful he is, is nothing more than this.

"Captain Wan, you're welcome. I'm just a doctor, much worse than you."

Xiao Feng cupped his hands and smiled, not arguing.

"Haha... Dr. Xiao is so humble."

"I heard that you are a martial arts master and a member of the Northern Martial Arts League. You are extremely young."

Wan Jianglei said exaggeratedly.

"Captain Wan is joking, I only know a little bit about martial arts, it's not worth mentioning at all."

Xiao Feng waved his hand and smiled. He could see that the other party was testing him.

If there wasn't Ye Donglan in the middle, he wouldn't care about a fight with the other party.

"Haha... Dr. Xiao is so humble."

"There are not many young people as low-key as you nowadays."

This sentence has received mixed reviews. I don’t know whether it is a compliment or a sarcasm.

Xiao Feng didn't care, his face was calm, without any disturbance.

The two looked at each other, and Wan Jianglei wanted to overwhelm Xiao Feng.

But he suddenly discovered that the young man in front of him had a trace of disdain and even ridicule in his eyes.

He sneered and asked: "Doctor Xiao, the old lady is seriously ill, are you sure he can be cured?"

"No doctor can guarantee a cure. I can only say that I will try my best."

Xiao Feng said seriously.

"Yeah! That makes sense."

Wan Jianglei nodded, and suddenly the conversation changed.

"But I believe in Donglan's vision more. The doctor she invited will never be a loser."

Ye Donglan's face darkened, "What are you talking about? You included me in it."

She quickly stood up to smooth things over and said with a smile: "Captain Wan, the old man is over a hundred years old. It is a gift from God to live for so many years."

"Dr. Xiao is not a god. No matter whether he can cure it or not, he is my benefactor, Ye Donglan."

Wan Jianglei rolled his eyes and patted Xiao Feng's arm.

"Haha...Dr. Xiao, I'm a rough guy."

"If you say something that doesn't sound right to your ears, don't take it to heart."

Xiao Feng narrowed his eyes and smiled: "No, I dare to ask Captain Wan, how about Cobra Team? Is it considered top-notch?"

"cobra?"

"What? Do you know Dr. Xiao?"

Wan Jianglei asked rhetorically.

"I don't know him, I just heard about him."

Xiao Feng pretended to be stupid.

"It used to be a second-rate mercenary team, but since the death of the Snake King, Red Poppy took over and has become a third-rate team."

"Don't talk about it now, even when Cobra is at its most glorious, it can't be compared to my Tyrannosaurus team."

Wan Jianglei looked arrogant.

"Oh I got it."

Xiao Feng nodded.

"Doctor Xiao, you don't want to join Cobra Team, do you?"

"Then you might as well come to our Tyrannosaurus team and I'll give you double your salary."

Wan Jianglei smiled.

"Captain Wan, thank you."

Afterwards, Xiao Feng and his group set off to where the old man of the Ye family lived.

In addition to Ye Donglan and Wang Xiaomeng, Ye Tingen and Ye Xianger also went with them.

Along the way, Xiao Feng was extremely excited.

Maybe I can meet my mother Ye Wenjun. If I do, do I want to recognize her in person?

What if he recognized his relationship? Will his mother accept him? This was all he was thinking about.

Over the years, he has imagined countless times that the scene of meeting his mother is finally getting closer.

"Xiao Feng, are you okay?"

Ye Donglan was nearby and noticed that his expression was wrong.

"Oh, nothing."

Xiao Feng shook his head and suddenly asked in a low voice: "Aunt Ye, is there a woman named Ye Wenjun in the Ye family?"

"Wenjun?"

Ye Donglan nodded and said, "Yes, she is from the third family of the Ye family. Do you know her?"

The third sect of the Ye family is the most powerful among the nine sects of the Ye family, with business covering the entire north.

"I do not recognize!"

"Just asking for help, will she come today?"

Xiao Feng asked again.

"I don't know about this. Ye Wenjun has married a merchant in Gaohai and rarely returns to Jinmen."

What? Married?

Xiao Feng's eyes widened and his heart suddenly clenched.

But I soon felt relieved. My mother was still young after all, and it was normal for her to remarry.

He just wanted to know what happened that year, and who forced his parents to throw him and his sister into an orphanage, so that their family could not see each other.

"Gaohai Merchant? Is he also a wealthy family?"

Ye Donglan nodded: "The merchant is the richest man in Gaohai, and his power is very huge. It is not comparable to that of ordinary wealthy families."

"Ye Wenjun is married to Shang Kuhai. This man is the eldest son of the business leader."

"He controls half of the business's economy and is a powerful figure in Gaohai."

"It is precisely because of this relationship that the third sect quickly rose up in the Ye family and became the most powerful existence among the nine sects."

"This marriage was personally arranged by the third sect leader. It can be said with certainty that this is a political marriage, and the purpose is naturally to unite the powerful."

Gaohai is the financial center of the entire China and is also a municipality directly under the Central Government.

It was an international metropolis as early as a hundred years ago, leading Tianjin in all aspects.

"Then she...has children?"

Xiao Feng nodded slightly and asked again.

"It seems that he has a son. I haven't seen him before. He should be about the same age as you."

Xiao Feng had a sullen expression and said nothing, his heart was a little clogged, as if he had been punched hard twice.

The mother already has a new family. If he and his sister suddenly appear, will this affect her?

Xiao Feng's heart was very confused. Reality was always crueler than ideals. The picture of a family of four reuniting might be shattered.

"Xiao Feng, are you asking Ye Wenjun if there is something wrong?"

"If you have anything to do, just tell Auntie, and Auntie will definitely help you."

Ye Wenjun patted the back of his hand and said seriously.

"Nothing, just asking for a friend."

Xiao Feng smiled and excused himself.

Ye Donglan didn't ask deeply, but she could tell that Xiao Feng seemed to care about Ye Wenjun.

He couldn't be asking for someone else, it must have something to do with himself.

It's just that there are some things he doesn't want to say, and it's useless to ask more.

In about an hour, the convoy entered the old city.

The place where the old man of the Ye family lives is similar to the courtyard house in Yanjing. There are two stone lions at the door, showing his majesty.

Xiao Feng put on a mask after getting off the car, and followed Ye Donglan and others into the courtyard.

In front of him is a stone road with flowers and plants planted on both sides, as well as pavilions and rockeries. Several workers are busy mowing the lawn.

After walking through the front yard to the main hall, I saw hundreds of people gathered outside the door, arranged in an orderly manner and not chaotic.

I learned from Ye Donglan that except for the third door, the other eight doors of the Ye family have arrived.

Each sect can only bring in ten people at most, and they all have designated places. Just like ministers going to court, wealthy families have many rules.

There is also a row of bodyguards in black at the gate, all to protect the old lady's safety.

Xiao Feng took a quick look and saw a few familiar faces.

Ye Zhaofeng from the Ninth Gate, and Jiang Yuntao and Mei Mei beside him.

Ye Qiu from the eighth gate, Lu Hongge, chairman of Jinmen Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, and Lu Daode, vice chairman.

The rest of the people were all strangers, and they were all whispering about something, each with their own agenda.
