Chapter 8: Unhappy Breaking

All the people living in the blessed land of Xuejing are the children of Zhan, but the only one who can hang the "Zhanfu" plaque in front of the door is the huge mansion in front of him. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This exhibition mansion, for the entire Tianci exhibition vein, is not only a magnificent mansion, but also the core of the entire family.

And today, the exhibition house is about to welcome new residents, but whether it is a permanent or short stay, no one can say.

Mrs. Zhan pushed Zhanbai, and the six daughters of Lu'er supported Nian Li'er, and slowly walked in the Zhan Mansion, as for Zhan Liangyuan, when he first entered the door, he took nearly 100 children of the Zhan family and parted ways, and it is said that he returned to the camp.

The exhibition is very large and beautiful, especially the various ice sculptures standing everywhere, reflecting the brilliance of the glass, creating a dream-like magnificence.

"Bai'er, my mother will arrange a place for you to live first, and then take you to visit the entire exhibition house, how about it?" Mrs. Zhan asked softly.

"Everything is commanded by my mother." Zhan Bai is noncommittal.

It's just that while the mother and son were talking, an old man came to meet him, who seemed to be in his last years, but he was extremely stable when he walked.

The old man was dressed in a simple gray robe, like a servant, but along the way, he was highly respected, and many servants in the palace bowed to him.

"I've seen Madame." The old man finally stopped in front of Zhan Bai, and only slightly arched his hand towards Mrs. Zhan behind him, with no expression on his face, which made people not show respect for the main family at all.

"Uncle Zhan, don't be polite." In contrast, even Mrs. Zhan, who was the housemother, had a lot of respect for the old man, and after greeting her, she didn't even forget to introduce Zhan Bai, "Bai'er, this Uncle Zhan is an old man who watched your father grow up." is in charge of the small and small affairs of the exhibition house, and he will be treated by elders in the future. When you were young, Uncle Zhan hugged you a lot. ”

"The younger generation Zhanbai has seen Zhan Bo." Zhan Bai was in awe, although his mother introduced it very simply, but how could he not hear the meaning of the words, thinking that this Zhan Bo should be the most trusted person by his father's side.

"The eldest prince is like this, but he has tormented the old slave." Seeing Zhan Bai's gift, Zhan Bo's face was a lot kinder, and after looking Zhan Bai up and down, a touch of pity flashed in his eyes.

"Uncle Zhan, what do you have to do when you come here?" It was Mrs. Zhan who opened her mouth and got down to business.

"Mrs., it's the lord who has summoned me and wants to meet the eldest son." Zhan Bo immediately expressed his intention.

"This ......" Mrs. Zhan's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, obviously a little unhappy, her son had just come back, what could not be talked about another day, it had to be so urgent.

Although she was dissatisfied in her heart, Mrs. Zhan also knew that at this time, in front of outsiders, she still had to leave some face for her husband, so it was naturally difficult to refuse, so she just lowered her head and said to Zhan Bai in a warm voice, "Bai'er, are you tired now?" ”

"Mother, don't worry, the child is not so delicate, since the father is calling, how can he refuse." Zhan Bai smiled slightly.

"Okay, Uncle Zhan, Bai'er will be taken care of by you." Since Uncle Zhan didn't mention himself just now, Mrs. Zhan also understood the matter, but just handed the wheelchair into Uncle Zhan's hands, "Bai'er, you go first, and my mother will go first...... Settle the girl. ”

Hearing this, Zhan Bai sighed secretly, it seems that there is still a long way to go before his mother can accept his wife.

……

This is perhaps the most solemn study that Zhan Bai has ever seen.

The study is large, but not large, because the four walls are filled with all kinds of books, and the air is full of the smell of ink. The furnishings in the study are very simple, and they are also very old-fashioned, there is no shortage of things that should be there, and there is no trace of things that should not be there. It feels like a middle-aged man sitting behind a desk, solemn, old-fashioned and unsmiling.

After Zhan Bo pushed Zhan Bai into the study, he turned around and left, giving the father and son space to be alone.

Zhan Bai, who was sitting in a wheelchair, carefully looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, and could see that between his eyebrows, he was quite similar to himself, his black hair was meticulously pulled up, and then restrained with a white scarf, and the long beard under his chin was also quite neat. The dignified appearance and serious expression give people a sense of unattainable majesty.

Is this his father?

Zhan Bai reminded himself in his heart, but for some reason, he could clearly feel the strange distance between the two.

"Here we are." After a long time, Zhan Aotian finally shifted his gaze from the book in his hand and glanced at Zhan Bai indifferently. In terms of expression, there was no trace of emotional fluctuations, no lost surprise, and no feeling like Mrs. Zhan, and her eyes didn't even stay on Zhanbai's paralyzed legs for even a moment.

An unfathomable man in the city.

This is Zhanbai's first impression of his biological father.

"Hmm." Zhanbai's answer is also not salty or light.

"Wine, or tea?" Zhan Aotian suddenly asked politely, his tone was not like a father, but like the owner of this study. Of course, in fact, he is indeed the host, but he treats his son as a guest.

Zhan Bai can understand his father's indifference, but he can't accept it. He is not here to accept mercy, let alone to be a guest. And the other party gave him the feeling that he was like a great benevolent man who helped beggars.

Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, Zhan Bai was also not an immature child who was moody, so he smiled slightly, "Thank you, you don't need it." ”

"Looks like you're not doing well?" Zhan Aotian obviously means caring, but the tone is annoying.

"Oh, how so?" Zhan Bai sneered twice.

Zhan Aotian glanced at Zhan Bai more, and with a flip of his palm, a simple oil lamp appeared out of thin air.

The oil lamp flickered with a candle the size of a bean, appearing and disappearing.

"It's your soul lamp, and you see it, it's faint. And it's always been flickering and flickering, and it's very unstable. Zhan Aotian pointed to the oil lamp and said.

"Heh, it seems that you care about me very much, and you even carry my soul lamp with you." It is said that father's love is deep, like the sea. Zhan Aotian wanted to show his father's majesty all the time, but this small detail, how could he escape Zhan Bai's amazing insight.

"Hey!" was exposed by his son on the spot, Zhan Aotian finally had an expression, and sighed heavily, "You shouldn't have come, at least it's not the right time." ”

"I'm sorry for the trouble." Zhan Bai pursed his lips, for some reason, the trace of good feelings for his father that had just risen was gradually dissipating.

The father in front of him has a temperament that is really incomprehensible, and the strong sense of strangeness makes it difficult for father and son to get along.

"If you have any requirements, you can say it, as long as it is not particularly demanding, I can meet you. However, you can't stay here long, and it's best to leave tomorrow. Zhan Aotian seemed to have a natural talent for attracting hatred, and as soon as he turned his words, he once again severed the already small connection between father and son.

Is this disgusting to yourself?

Zhan Bai naturally wouldn't have such a simple idea, but no matter how open-minded he was, he couldn't try his best to think about Zhan Aotian's words.

A father, when confronted with his long-lost biological son, not only does not show eager emotion, but is more like a beggar who treats alms, hoping to give some very limited benefits and drive him away as soon as possible.

If it is said that the father arranged this way in order to protect himself through alternative methods, then Zhanbai is really unacceptable. He is not a child, let alone a burden, and under the seemingly gentle and weak appearance, there is an absolutely proud heart.

There is no place to stay here, maybe because of grievances, or maybe because of rebelliousness, the sword eyebrows on Zhanbai's face are almost erected.

"This may be the best way, after all, my existence is indeed a flaw, and it is easy to be caught and used by people with intentions to become a sharp weapon to attack you, thus threatening your current position. Hehe, in fact, I should have thought of it a long time ago, how could I allow the existence of such a burden as deep as you......" Zhan Bai smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, not even mocking, "That's it, I shouldn't have appeared here in the first place." After all, the greatest family affection is not worth the time to pass. ”

As he spoke, Zhan Bai had already turned his wheelchair and slowly left outside the study.

"Stop." There was a loud shout from behind him, and when he heard it, his voice had already fluctuated emotionally.

"I don't know, Master Zhan, do you have any other orders?" Zhan Bai stopped, but did not look back.

Zhan Bai didn't get a reply, but only heard the sound of getting up, followed by footsteps.

In the end, Zhan Aotian walked in front of Zhan Bai, holding a piece of jade in his hand.

"No matter what, you are still a child of the Zhan family. As a child of the Zhan family, he will not be able to spread the mastery of the Zhan family, isn't it a joke. As Zhan Aotian spoke, he handed over Yuque.

"The mastery of the Zhan family?" Zhan Bai sneered twice, "Say something you may not like to hear, I may not be able to see it." ”

"It's your business whether you look at it or not, but it's always good to have a little more skill." Zhan Aotian was not angry, and when he saw that Zhan Bai didn't answer, he directly stuffed Yuque Qiang into Zhan Bai's arms.

"Tomorrow, I will ask Liangyuan to send you to Tianmo City, where there is a property of my Zhan family, and there is a vacancy. Although that industry can't make you rich, if you run it well, you can also have no worries about food and clothing, so you can do it yourself. After Zhan Aotian finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave first.

"Can I refuse?" Looking at Zhan Aotian's back, Zhan Bai said angrily.

"I can't."
