Zhong Chengjun's mood was still very excited, but when he saw his grandfather pointing at Chen Zilong and saying the last sentence to himself, the whole person instantly felt bad.

I remember that at the opening ceremony of 'Tenglong International', when Duanmuyi asked Huanghan to call her aunt in front of so many people, but in the blink of an eye, Chen Zilong called her sister, in fact, Zhong Chengjun's heart was secretly happy.

And in that case, he felt that except for Huang Han, the reaction of everyone else was probably similar to him.

was demoted to a generation for no reason, and it was very cool to put it on anyone, not to mention the sons of wealthy families like them whose identities and family backgrounds were extremely prominent.

But it's only been a long time, how can this bloody thing be on his turn?

Originally, I planned that if Chen Zilong could help this time, he would not mind making him a friend, but why did he get an uncle?

Duanmuyi people are just talking like that, and Huang Han has not really lost anything.

But in order to get here, how can you sit down?

After so many years since his grandmother's death, Zhong Chengjun had the urge to cry for the first time!

Although the family was robbed, in the hearts of the vast majority of the Zhong family, they didn't know that it was the 'Soul Gathering Bead' that was robbed, because they didn't know the existence of the 'Soul Gathering Bead' at all.

They only care that it is better for the old man, who is the head of the family, to recover safely than anything else.

In addition, Jin Kui, who had only heard his name for many years, but had not seen him, went home, and all the descendants of the Zhong family in Yanjing were notified by the old man to come back for dinner at noon.

So naturally for lunch, needless to say, Jin Kui and Chen Zilong have become the absolute protagonists without a doubt!

But Chen Zilong's limelight is faintly overshadowing Jin Kui, but it is not very good.

Imagine who can stand to be suddenly presented with a young uncle who doesn't know where he came from and doesn't look like he's old?

Zhong Chengjun was unhappy, and the third generation of the Zhong family led by him collectively expressed his displeasure!

But in front of the old man, no one dared to show it.

just imitated Zhong Chengjun's appearance, and constantly toasted Chen Zilong 'enthusiastically', in order to express his dissatisfaction in his heart.

For their silent protest, Chen Zilong could not see it.

can make the third generation of the Zhong family, one of the four major families in Yanjing, stunned and dare not say it, this opportunity is not something that anyone can touch.

So Chen Zilong pretended not to notice anything, he was completely gentle and humble and honest, as long as someone toasted, he would accept it all with a smile, and of course he would inevitably respond with a few polite words by the way.

"The young man is so handsome, do you have a partner?"

"How can a girl's family wear such heavy makeup? The classmate of the daughter of Aunt Li's family on our street and his cousin are about the same age as you, but she looks without makeup, we see her once and admit our mistakes once! ”

Flutter!

Some other people sitting next to him laughed, but when they remembered what this guy said in response to him just now, there was a little more righteousness in their eyes when they looked at Chen Zilong!

Zhong Wenke seemed to be talking happily with the old man and the eldest brother throughout the whole process, but his eyes would stop on Chen Zilong from time to time.

Towards the end, Zhong Wenke filled his wine glass, then got up and walked around to Chen Zilong.

Chen ...... Brother, there were some strange things before, and I hope you don't take it to heart. ”

A person of his stature and a young man in his early twenties were brothers and sisters, which had never been thought of before, and in the upper circles of Yanjing, this kind of thing had never happened.

The more wealthy the class, the more demanding and clear their identity and status division is, and even unsympathetic.

But so far, Zhong Wenke has voluntarily called Chen Zilong so.

If he didn't have the ability and means to watch the family, he would not have been in charge of the Zhong family for so many years. Compared with the group of juniors in the Zhong family, Zhong Wenke saw it more clearly, they felt that they were secretly embarrassing others, but they didn't know that they had been put together by Chen Zilong invisibly.

"Wrong? Are you blaming me for not saying hello to you and leaving? Chen Zilong didn't answer his meaning, but asked in surprise.

Zhong Wenke was stunned at first, but immediately reacted that Chen Zilong was using Tai Chi to resolve his embarrassment.

That alone was enough for the young man in front of him to have a reason for him to toast this glass of wine—

After lunch, Old Man Zhong did not go back to the room to lie down, but proposed to let the Jin Kui brothers and Chen Zilong accompany him to the big garden behind.

Although the old man himself had already decided, Jin Kui and Zhong Wenke both looked at Chen Zilong in unison, and the meaning of inquiry in their eyes was obvious.

"It's just the right day now, as long as it's not too long, no problem!" Chen Zilong naturally knew what the brothers were worried about, and replied very pertinently.

In the end, Jin Kui specially asked Fang Bo to find a crutch, and then the three of them accompanied the old man to walk slowly along the gravel path.

"Wen Ke, do you know why I asked you to block the news at that time?" After walking to an open lawn area, Old Man Zhong suddenly turned around and asked Zhong Wenke, who was following behind.

"Father doesn't want some interested families to take advantage of the loophole, and if the news leaks, it will bring us a lot of resistance to recapture the 'Soul Gathering Bead'."

Zhong Wenke knew that Chen Zilong knew about the 'Soul Gathering Bead', so he did not shy away from it at this time.

The old man glanced at him thoughtfully, then nodded slowly.

"Isn't that right? What does the father mean? ”

Not only Zhong Wenke, but even Jin Kui and Chen Zilong on the side were also a little surprised.

In any case, Zhong Wenke's analysis is undoubtedly the best answer. But the old man shook his head, did he have other plans in his heart?

"You're right, I'm shaking my head because I've changed my attention now." After the old man finished speaking, he turned around and continued to walk forward.

Wen Ke ...... I don't quite understand what my father meant. After glancing at his eldest brother Jin Kui, Zhong Wenke asked again.

"After so many years, we have never been able to unlock the secret of the 'Soul Gathering Bead', what does this mean? Perhaps it didn't belong to us at all in the first place. ”

The old man asked and answered himself, and he could be regarded as answering Zhong Wenke's doubts at the same time.

"And according to legend, there are a total of three 'Soul Gathering Beads', if this news leaks, those forces that are still secretly coveting will definitely think that our Zhong family has one or two others, in that case, the Zhong family may never have a peaceful day!"

The old man's words surprised them, but they were reasonable.

However, among the few people, only Chen Zilong knew that the old man's worries behind him were actually superfluous, because one of them had been completely absorbed by himself, and the other one was also absorbed or had been absorbed by Murong Demon Yue.

And the reason why the 'Soul Gathering Bead' has been kept in the Zhong family for so long but is still intact can only show that the exercise aura they cultivated cannot be integrated with the 'Soul Gathering Bead'.

"So are we really going to give up on this? And the fact that you were injured. "Of course, Zhong Wenke knows the preciousness of the 'Soul Gathering Bead', but because of what the old man said, it is all a fact that he has to accept.

"Or else? Although our Zhong family has an astonishing amount of wealth and huge political and business relations, what can we do? Shouldn't life be more important in front of those people? ”

The Zhong family only rose completely in the hands of the old man, especially in that era when materials were scarce and even eating was a problem, no one could better understand how precious it was to live than the old man!

"I see, everything is according to you, father." Zhong Wenke is a talented scholar and no longer needs to ask more.

The old man nodded with satisfaction, then sat down on a bamboo chair next to the lawn by the way, and when his eyes fell on Chen Zilong, he suddenly asked, "Young man, what would you do if I told you that those people who robbed the 'Soul Gathering Bead' were still in Yanjing?" ”

"If it had been a minute ago, I would have listened to you."

"And now?"

"I'll go straight to them!"

Although it is not clear why the old man suddenly asked this, but since everyone has already indicated that they will give up the right to compete for the 'Soul Gathering Bead', Chen Zilong also feels that there is no need to hide it.

"And what would you do if I told you again where they are now?"

"Then I might not be here in the next minute!"

"Good, good." The old man looked at Chen Zilong meaningfully and nodded twice.

"Royal Ming Garden." The old man suddenly squeezed out two words from his mouth, and at the same time the hand holding the crutch subconsciously clenched hard.

Royal Ming Garden?!

Jin Kui and Zhong Wenke, who were on the side, blurted out subconsciously, and their faces were full of surprise and shock.

To be able to have a garden in a bustling city where every inch of land is worth every inch of land is a thing that almost dare not be extravagant in a dream, and to have a private garden in a place like Yanjing, except for the royal family, the head of the four major families, no family can do it!

"Thank you, old man, if you don't mind, I'm going to take my leave now!" What a shrewd person Chen Zilong was, from the literal meaning and the surprised facial expressions of Jin Kui and the others, he had already immediately guessed the owner of the place name.

"Go ahead, let Cheng Jun lead the way." The old man's eyes narrowed slightly, making it impossible to see through his true expression at this time.

Chen Zilong answered, and then immediately turned around and walked back.

"Since our Zhong family is not sure, why did you let Brother Chen take this risk?" Jin Kui, who originally wanted to call Chen Zilong, looked at the old man in confusion and asked.

"It may be a real adventure for us, but for him, it may just be a growth." The old man didn't even raise his head, looked at Chen Zilong's back in the distance and said.

Grow?

Jin Kui didn't understand what the other party meant, and Zhong Wenke on the side was also a little confused.

"Didn't you just say that our Zhong family had given up the 'Soul Gathering Bead'? Why did you let Cheng Jun go with him? Jin Kui still didn't give up, and continued to ask.

The old man didn't answer immediately, he stood up from the bamboo chair with his cane, and after walking out for a while, his calm voice slowly came.

"Since it's growth, it's for his good to let Xiaojun learn a thing or two, not to mention that everyone has already given away favors, so we naturally can't be uninteresting!"
