Ye Chengfu, the old housekeeper of the Lin family, drove Yan Shouyi to the hillside of Wushan Mountain in Rongcheng.
There are three hills in the urban area of Rongcheng City, namely Wushan, Yushan and Pingshan. The prison where Yan Shouyi's father was imprisoned is at the foot of Pingshan.
Halfway up the mountainside of Wushan, you can enjoy the beautiful night view of Rongcheng without being too otherworldly.
Compared with the towering Guling, Wushan not only highlights its status, but also does not lose its earthly atmosphere.
As the saying goes, it's always cold at high places, and those who do business like the Lin family are the ones who disdain to be too extravagant.
"Shouyi, we're here." Ye Chengfu stopped the car and turned around and said.
"Thank you, Grandpa Ye."
Yan Shou got out of the car, looked around, and found a stone staircase in front of him. Climbing up a dozen steps, there was an independent teahouse with mountain views.
Mountain View Teahouse and West Lake Yaju are completely different scenery, but their styles are not much different.
"Go up, the lady is waiting for you in the tea room." Ye Chengfu said with a smile, "I'll wait here for your good news."
Yan Shouyi couldn't help but smile and nodded to Ye Chengfu.
Then, with light steps, he climbed up more than a dozen steps easily and arrived at the door of the teahouse.
After knocking on the door twice, I heard Lin Ruofu's voice coming from inside: "Come in."
Yan Shou took a deep breath, adjusted himself, and then specially arranged his clothes and pulled the corners of his clothes.
Then he pushed open the door and entered.
"Uncle Lin, long time no see!"
In his imagination, Yan Shouyi hoped to see Lin Zitong's expectant eyes and Lin Ruofu's approving eyes.
However, in reality, what he saw was Lin Zitong, whose eyes were red from crying, and Lin Ruofu, who had a sullen face.
What's going on?
The smile on Yan Shouyi's face became stiff, and his heart slowly sank.
"Shouyi is here," Lin Ruofu sighed and pointed to the seat, "Sit down first."
"Oh...ok."
Yan Shouyi put away his smile and sat next to Lin Zitong a little cautiously.
Not sure if it was because of guilt, Lin Zitong lowered her head and did not dare to look directly into Yan Shouyi's eyes.
After all, Yan Shouyi finally made up his mind to be with Lin Zitong at all costs, but Lin Zitong failed to handle his own affairs well.
But Lin Zitong still quietly reached out her hand and grabbed Yan Shouyi's clothes.
Upon seeing this, Yan Shou mustered up his courage and hugged Lin Zitong.
He wanted Lin Zitong to know that he had the ability to protect her.
Being held in Yan Shouyi's arms, Lin Zitong seemed to feel more at ease.
"As long as I'm here, everything will be fine." Yan Shou patted her shoulder and comforted her.
Lin Zitong nodded silently.
When Lin Ruofu saw this, he said nothing except sighing deeply.
Compared with when they met ten years ago, Lin Ruofu had a lot of white hair on his temples. He was not as energetic as before. Yan Shouyi could smell the unique smell of tobacco and alcohol on him that was unique to businessmen from a long distance away.
It seems that although Lin Ruofu has become rich in recent years, his life is not so comfortable.
Originally, Yan Shouyi, who was not good at speaking, specially prepared many topics.
For example, I talked with Lin Ruofu about his body, his family, the places he had been to over the years, the people and things he had seen.
You can also talk about the future.
But with the current atmosphere, Yan Shouyi didn't know where to start.
"Shouichi."
In the end, it was Lin Ruofu who spoke first.
He sat opposite, lit a cigarette, and said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry for asking you to make a special trip. I know you like Zitong very much, and Zitong also likes you, but marriage is not just a matter between the two of you;
It’s a family matter.”
"It may be a bit feudal to say this, but you have to know that neither your Yan family nor our Lin family is an ordinary family. There are too many things to consider. Many times, the decisions are not satisfactory, even compared with our original ones.
It goes against my thoughts, but no one can do anything about it, this world is very realistic..."
As soon as Lin Ruofu opened his mouth, he talked about reality.
The word reality always appears together with the word cold.
Yan Shouyi gritted his teeth and said:
"Uncle Lin, I believe that Zitong and I can solve all difficulties together."
"I believe you in other matters, but this time, I really can't!"
Lin Ruofu said categorically: "Zitong already has a marriage contract, it is impossible for her to marry you again!"
"I once had an engagement partner, but the engagement was just a piece of waste paper, just a verbal promise. If you don't love the other person, why bother to torture each other?" Yan Shouyi asked.
"But do you know who her engagement partner is?!" Lin Ruofu slammed the table and said angrily.
Lin Zitong hesitated to speak. She did not dare to tell Yan Shouyi that her engagement partner was Bai Yusheng of the Bai family.
It's obvious that the feud between Yan Shouyi and the Bai family has reached an all-out level.
However, Yan Shouyi said softly: "I know, Bai Yusheng from the Bai family."
Lin Ruofu was slightly startled: "How do you know?"
Lin Zitong was also surprised. Why did Yan Shouyi know about this but never mentioned it to her?
In fact, Lin Zitong only recently found out who her engagement partner was.
She was informed before that she was engaged, but she didn't take it to heart at all.
Because she knew that the person she liked was Yan Shouyi, and no matter who the engagement partner was, she would never marry that person.
So she doesn't care and doesn't need to know that person's name.
Later, she announced at a press conference that she had someone she liked. The news made a big fuss, and Lin Ruofu took it seriously.
He asked Lin Zitong to see him overnight and told Lin Zitong about Bai Yusheng.
Lin Zitong felt very bad when she learned the truth, but she didn't want to affect Yan Shouyi, so she didn't confess to him for a long time.
Now, Lin Ruofu asked Lin Zitong to completely cut off all contact with Yan Shouyi.
That's why this scene happened now.
"I know that Zitong's engagement partner is the Bai family, and I also know that the Bai family has a great career in the Rongcheng family, but so what?"
Yan Shouyi stood up and spoke loudly and forcefully: "My Yan family has been inherited for thousands of years, how can it be inferior to the small Bai family?!"
A descendant of Lu Ban has the arrogance of a descendant of Lu Ban.
From beginning to end, Yan Shouyi only regarded the Bai family as his personal enemy.
Rather than the enemy of the Yan family!
Because the Xiaobai family is not worth mentioning in front of the Yan family!
Yan Shou took off his satchel, placed it on the tea table, reached out and took out one treasure after another.
"This one is called Ma Chao Long Que, commonly known as Ma Ta Fei Yan. It is a treasure unearthed in the Han Dynasty. The other one is collected in the Provincial Museum of Yongliang Province!"
"This is the sword of King Goujian of Yue. It has been passed down for thousands of years and has not decayed. The one in the Hubei Museum is just an imitation. This is the real thing!"
"This, the legendary Phoenix Gut, also known as the Muchen Bead, is the essence of the earth. There is only one in the world, and it is only in the hands of me, the descendant of Lu Ban!"
In the small satchel, I took out more than a dozen treasures at once.
Take out any one of them and it will shock the world!
Any piece of it can fetch billions of dollars!
But these treasures were like worthless garbage in Yan Shouyi's hands.
He piled these treasures into a mountain and placed them in front of Lin Ruofu.
Under the light, the babies exude a variety of lights.
You can imagine how powerful the impact of the scene was!
Even Lin Ruofu, who was accustomed to the world, couldn't help but feel his mouth was dry at this time.
This is the feeling you get after being shocked to the point of being speechless.
After taking out all the treasures, Yan Shouyi sneered: "These treasures are just the tip of the iceberg of our Luban treasure, a drop in the bucket! The Yan family's heritage, Uncle Lin, you can't even imagine!"
"These are just small gifts for me to propose marriage!"
"If you don't let Zitong marry me just because of the little Bai family, then this doesn't make sense! I don't recognize it either! I won't accept it!"
"Today, I will stay with Zitong no matter what. Even Uncle Lin, you can't stop me!"
Yan Shouyi, who has always been gentle and gentle, showed his arrogance for the first time.
Although his grandfather has always taught him to keep a low profile.
But if you can't even protect the girl you like, what's the point of being low-key?!
"Lin Zitong, I, Yan Shouyi, are determined to marry you. Even if Yuanshi Tianzun comes, I won't be able to stop you!"
"I said so!"
