"What did you say? You want me to take your last name?" Chen Fan was a little surprised and even wanted to laugh.
"Since ancient times, there have been people with their mother's surname. You are not the first." Long Guofan said calmly.
Wu Chengyang, who was standing next to Long Guofan, also said: "Little guy, this is your only chance to survive. As long as you become a member of the Long family, you no longer have to worry about the Huangfu family being unfavorable to you in the future."
"Besides, you should know that the Long family has strict family rules. If you don't bear the surname Long, there will only be one fate for you, an illegitimate child."
"Are you threatening me?" Chen Fan's face gradually darkened.
Wu Chengyang sneered and said no more.
"You only have one day to consider whether to take the surname Long or continue to use the surname Chen. However, I still hope that a family recognition event can be held at my birthday banquet tomorrow. In this way, you can take care of your mother in an open and honest manner instead of taking care of your mother.
She's hiding somewhere."
Chen Fan's eyes suddenly shrank and he looked at the Dragon Kingdom Flag in surprise.
Soon, Chen Fan felt relieved. After all, he also knew that this was Kyoto, and nothing could be hidden from the old man in front of him.
Long Guofan didn't say anything more, but waved his hand, indicating to Wu Chengyang to take Chen Fan down.
Wu Chengyang bowed slightly, and then left the study with Chen Fan.
Outside the annex building of the manor, Long Yinglan had been waiting here. When she saw Chen Fan walking out of the main villa safe and sound, Long Yinglan breathed a sigh of relief and hurried forward to greet him.
"Xiaofan, are you okay?" Long Yinglan asked worriedly.
Chen Fan shook his head and said it was okay.
Wu Chengyang did not stay long. After arranging a guest room for Chen Fan, he returned to the main building villa.
When Long Yinglan saw Wu Chengyang leaving, she asked Chen Fan what happened just now.
Regarding Long Yinglan, Chen Fan did not hide anything and repeated everything Long Guofan said.
"What? The old man wants you to change your surname?" Long Yinglan looked a little surprised.
But Long Yinglan knew Chen Fan's temper better, so Chen Fan would definitely not accept this request, and the result was self-evident.
"Xiaofan, you can leave the Long family during the family dinner tomorrow." Long Yinglan finally made the decision.
"Aunt Long, what about you?" Chen Fan asked.
"As his daughter, nothing will happen to me, but when you leave, don't go back to Jiangcheng. With the power of Daxiong and the Qin family, not only will they not be able to protect you, but they will also bring disaster to them." Long Yinglan warned.
.
Chen Fan fell into deep thought.
If you leave, you will have nothing. If you don't leave, you will have a relationship with the Long family.
His mother, father, and so many years of hatred were all thrown out of the window. For a moment, Chen Fan didn't know what to choose.
"You can keep the green hills without fear of running out of firewood. Only if you become stronger can you be qualified to reject them." Long Yinglan said again.
Chen Fan nodded, knowing that he had no other choice.
But before Chen Fan could plan how to escape from the manor, he saw a group of tall and strong men coming outside the door.
Then they forced Chen Fan back to his room, while they stood guard outside the door. It was obvious that they were monitoring Chen Fan, and even his mobile phone was confiscated.
Long Yinglan wanted to stop him, but was stopped by two strong men.
In this way, Chen Fan was placed under house arrest in a room in the annex building.
Chen Fan knew that he could not escape now. He had just observed that there were many patrolling bodyguards in the manor, and they all carried weapons. To escape now would be no different from seeking death.
At this time, Chen Fan also placed all his hopes on tomorrow's birthday banquet.
In this way, Chen Fan was placed under house arrest in the room until the next morning when the door was opened.
The person who came was none other than Wu Chengyang, and he was holding a breakfast in his hand.
But Chen Fan didn't have the appetite to eat.
"How is it? How do you think about it?" Wu Chengyang asked as he put breakfast on the table.
"If I don't agree, do you plan to attack me today?"
"Haha, today is the old man's birthday, so naturally I won't do anything, but I guarantee you won't see the sunrise tomorrow." Wu Chengyang smiled lightly, his words full of threats.
"I don't understand, why do you want me to change my surname? There are probably not a few juniors in the Long family who are better than me, right?" Chen Fan asked the doubt in his heart.
"You don't need to know this, nor are you qualified to know it. I'm just here to get the answer." Wu Chengyang responded.
"Okay, then I agree." Chen Fan nodded and said.
The corner of Wu Chengyang's mouth curled up: "Those who understand current affairs are heroes, that's right."
"But." Chen Fan stopped talking.
"But what?" Wu Chengyang asked.
"If the Huangfu family knew about this, they would definitely obstruct it, I'm afraid."
Before Chen Fan could finish his words, Wu Chengyang sneered and said, "It's just the Huangfu family. Boy, you look down on the Long family too much."
After the words fell, Wu Chengyang clapped his hands.
A young woman walked in dragging her clothes.
"Put on your clothes and go to the birthday banquet with me. There will be a family recognition process later. I will tell you the process. Just follow it." Wu Chengyang ordered.
Chen Fan responded and took the clothes handed over by the woman.
At this time, many guests had already arrived at the Long Family Manor.
Chen Fan followed Wu Chengyang and walked towards the main building villa. On the way, Chen Fan observed the surrounding situation intentionally or unintentionally.
The reason why he agreed was because Chen Fan knew that if he didn't agree, he might not even be able to leave the villa.
Only by leaving the villa can it be possible to escape from the Long Family Manor.
Wu Chengyang was in a room and began to explain to Chen Fan the process that would be followed later, which is the so-called recognition of ancestors and return to the clan.
At ten o'clock, most of the guests had arrived at the Long Family Manor.
The figure of Long Guofan, accompanied by his eldest son Long Jianghua, appeared in front of everyone.
"Mr. Long, I wish you a long life as Nanshan!"
Many people also opened their mouths to congratulate.
Long Guofan expressed his gratitude to everyone: "Thank you."
But just when Long Guofan was about to speak, a voice suddenly sounded from the crowd, interrupting Long Guofan's words.
"Father, I wish you happiness as long as the East China Sea and longevity as the Nanshan Mountain."
This voice was so sudden that it immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, and they all looked at the crowd in surprise.
I saw a middle-aged man in a suit walking slowly out of the crowd, and he was none other than Huangfu Qinyuan.
Seeing the person coming, Long Jianghua frowned slightly, with a hint of displeasure on his face.
"Qinyuan, what are you doing? How could you interrupt your father-in-law's speech?" Huangfu Youcheng's face darkened, and he accused in a low voice.
However, Huangfu Qinyuan ignored his father at all. Instead, he looked at Long Guofan and said again: "Father, this is a gift I specially prepared for you."
Long Guofan nodded slightly: "Just leave it to Lao Wu."
"No, father, this gift must be opened in public. After all, it is a son's intention." Huangfu Qinyuan still insisted.
"Qinyuan." Huangfu Youcheng glared at him.
Huangfulin, who was standing next to Huangfu Youcheng, raised the corner of his mouth and glanced at Huangfu Qinyuan teasingly.
Long Guofan's face remained calm, he smiled calmly and nodded: "Okay, since Qin Yuan is so interested, let's open it."
Upon hearing this, Huangfu Qinyuan took two steps forward and slowly opened the box in his hand.
