"You--" The old patriarch jumped up angrily, shook his hand and slapped Lan Chi Xuan, "You actually want to live and die for a woman, the Lan family has not seen a promising descendant like you for hundreds of years." ”

Lan Chi Xuan did not back down at all, and received the slap from the old patriarch.

"Are you worth it? You have done so much for her in the past ten years, and she still leaves you without looking back, are you really willing? The old patriarch pointed at the blue pool with hatred.

"Loving someone, there is nothing worth it or not, let alone whether it is willing or not." Lan Ji Hyun only felt a hot pain on his face at this time, and he reached out to stroke his already red and swollen cheeks, "And everything I did for her was of my own volition, and it had nothing to do with her!" ”

"Tsk, what a volunteer, listening to your tone, it seems that she doesn't know that you have done so much for her, you said that if she knew all the things you did for her, would she stay by your side?"

"Patriarch, it's not me she loves! So even if she was willing to stay with me, it must be out of sympathy and gratitude, but that's definitely not what I wanted. ”

"This is simple, it's too easy for her to fall in love with you, the Lan family has a way."

"No, you can't do that to her." Lan Chi Hyun suddenly panicked, "I definitely don't want a woman without thoughts and feelings, instead of turning her into that, it's better to let her go back to China now." ”

"Xiao Shi, it's too late, before she enters the ancient castle, I may consider what you said, but you know very well the clan rules of the Lan family for hundreds of years, everyone who enters this ancient castle can only get out of this ancient castle if they really become the Lan family." The old patriarch grimaced, "Otherwise, she can only come in vertically and go out sideways." ”

"Patriarch, if she suffers any harm, or has any strengths and weaknesses, I will never survive." Lan Chi Hyun's face suddenly turned pale, and he blurted out in a hurry.

"You're threatening me?" The old patriarch was suddenly angry, "Don't think that if you are the next patriarch, I can't cure you." Presumably you have forgotten, there is a rule in the Lan family, anyone who commits something that damages the reputation of the Lan family, even the patriarch himself, cannot escape the blame. You said that as the established future patriarch of the Lan family, not only did you not dedicate your life to the Lan family, but you guarded a woman who didn't love you for ten years, and in the end, you had to find death and life for her. If this matter spreads, the reputation of the Lan family for hundreds of years will be ruined in your hands, do you really have the heart to watch your mother suffer for you? ”

"Patriarch, I never wanted to break the clan rules, I just wanted to protect the woman I loved." Lan Chi Hyun suddenly sighed in a low voice, and his tone softened.

As the next patriarch, Lan Chi Xuan is indeed very clear, there is indeed a clause in the clan rules of the Lan family: anyone who damages the reputation of the Lan family will be imprisoned for life within three generations of his direct line, regardless of age or age.

He had no descendants, but he had a mother who loved him like life. He couldn't imagine his mother spending her whole life in prison for him.

I obviously want to control my emotions, but why did things develop like this?

The current Lan Chi Xuan suddenly discovered that he actually had the same fatal weakness as Lin Yuhao, as long as he dealt with anything related to storage condensation, they would lose all their senses.

"Since you love her so much, you shouldn't give up. Let her fall in love with you and guard you with all her heart from now on, why not? The old patriarch's tone softened.

"But I would rather not have such a forcible love, if she really falls in love with me, I will die and keep her by my side." Blue Pool Hyun muttered.

"Xiao Shi, you will have to inherit the Lan family sooner or later, so you should have the decision that a patriarch should have, since my previous patriarch directly skipped your father's generation and chose you to succeed from me, it must be your superiority, so I don't want you to be ruined by a woman." The old patriarch was gracious and powerful, "If this woman shackles you, then no matter how good she is, the Lan family can't keep her." ”

"Patriarch, if you promise to let her go, I promise you to marry Huan'er immediately." When the lightning is shining, Blue Pool Xuan does not think twice.

"If you don't talk about Huan'er, I almost forgot that poor woman who has been waiting for you quietly for more than ten years is waiting for you to appear day after day in a corner of this ancient castle. Xiao Shi, have you ever thought about how deep your love for Chu Ning is, how deep the damage to Huan'er is. You can marry them all if you want. The men of the Lan family, even if there are two women, are not exaggerated. ”

"No, you let Chu Ning go, I will only marry Huan'er." Lan Chi Hyun repeats his determination to marry this 'Huan'er'.

"You have to think clearly, if Chu Ning returns to China, he may never set foot on the land of Rome again."

"I think very clearly, please let her go back to China."

"It seems that our ancestors and grandchildren have no tacit understanding, when you were obsessed with her and fought against the family everywhere, I didn't have the slightest interest in her, and I only disliked and despised her. Now that you have cultivated her so well, I can't help but look at her differently, now she belongs to you alone, but you want to marry Huan'er instead. ”

"She is different from Huan'er, she is not suitable to survive in the Lan family."

"How do you know if you don't try? I still mean the same thing, I will give you two ways to go, one is to let her be your wife; The second is to fulfill your promise five years ago, immediately inherit all the businesses of the Lan family, including the position of patriarch, and marry Huan'er as a wife, never taking half a step out of Rome again. ”

At this moment, Lan Chi Xuan hesitated, the clan rule of the Lan family for hundreds of years is that after succeeding to the position of patriarch, he will serve the Lan family for the rest of his life, and he will never leave Rome for half a step.

Lan Chi Hyun couldn't imagine what it would be like for him to stay in Rome all his life and never see the woman she loved again.

Lan Ji Hyun sat in the chair his mother had sat in just now, his arms propped up on his knees, and his ten fingers together in his hair, tangled in pain.

Obviously, either option made it difficult for him to choose, "You give me time to think about it." "In the end, we had to use a delaying tactic.

"Okay, this is the descendant of my Lan family, I will give you ten days to think about it, in these ten days, I will play some games with this little girl, you can come back to see her at any time, but don't think about taking her away." The old patriarch clearly saw Lan Chi Xuan's intentions, but he was not in a hurry, nor did he wear it.

As the future master of the Lan family, he still had to give him this face, so after dropping the words, he got up and left.

After the old patriarch left, Lan Qixuan got up, slowly walked to the Xiangyun Dragon Bench that the old patriarch had just sat on, and then sat down.

He clasped the armrests on both sides of the dragon chair with both hands, closed his eyes, and imagined how majestic this dragon chair, which symbolized the highest authority of the Lan family, was.

In the future, no, it may be right away, he will sit on this chair, but more than ten years ago, he was extremely disgusted with this seat, and today, more than ten years later, his disgust is even worse, and it has reached the point of deep hatred.

'Chu Ning, how do I decide?' No, it seems that I don't have to choose, because I will choose one of the two paths that the old patriarch said. The first is what I want in this life but can't reach, and the second is that I want to get rid of it in this life but can never get rid of it. ’

'If he had chosen the second one, then the woman she loved would have been in danger of her life, but the first one, no--'

So I have a third way? ’

Lan Chi Xuan slowly opened his eyes again, he looked through the screen, looking at Chu Ning, who was about to lie down after just finishing the meal, so delicate, but so calm.

The next moment, he got up and abandoned the screen......

The door opened suddenly, and then, Chu Ning saw a familiar figure rushing towards her.

At that moment, Chu Ning suddenly laughed, laughing so much that Lan Chixuan was heartbroken, and he was mixed with a burst of shame.

"Ah Xuan--" Chu Ning called to Lan Chi Xuan vividly, as if it was as natural as before in her small apartment.

Clankle gave a deep bow to the blue pool, then stepped out.

"Chu Ning--" Lan Chi Xuan had mixed feelings for a while, and stepped forward to hug Chu Ning without saying anything, leaving no gap.

I haven't seen it for a few days, and it's already like a thousand mountains and rivers.

He couldn't imagine what would happen if she were to leave and he would succeed him as patriarch, and they would never see each other again.

"Ah Xuan--, is it really you?" Because Chu Ning's body had not fully recovered, she had to let Lan Chi Xuan hold her in her arms, and she gently stroked the five finger prints on the right half of Lan Chi Xuan's face, "What's wrong with your face?" ”

"Ignore it!" Lan Chi Xuan covered Chu Ning's weak hand, "Are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine, but I don't have the strength in my body."

"Damn, they actually gave you incense." Lan Chi Hyun sniffed the smell in the air and said angrily.

"Ah Xuan, you don't have to be excited, the incense has burned out, and my body is slowly recovering, presumably because I have been very well-behaved, they won't incense me anymore, right?" Chu Ning playfully joked with Blue Pool.

"I'm not going to let you get hurt again." Lan Ji Hyun broke Chu Ning's body again, and then looked at his cheek pitifully.

"Ah Xuan, I have food and drink here, and there are people to serve me, in fact, it doesn't feel so bad, now that I see you, my heart is even more happy, so don't be too sad." Chu Ning mischievously comforted Lan Ji Xuan.

Lan Chi Hyun nodded, but his heart was even more uncomfortable.

Chu Ning used the word 'look' to prove that she had already thought that she was captured by the Lan family.

That's why the moment she saw him, she smiled so heartlessly, because she had been waiting for him to appear.

She doesn't say anything, but she understands everything.

But he, Lan Chi Xuan, as the heir of the Lan family, couldn't save her, at most he could only come and see her.

"Chu Ning, I'm sorry!" Lan Chi Xuan hugged Chu Ning in his arms again, "I'm really useless, I let them kidnap you right under their noses." ”
