If there is an afterlife.

Ying Baoyue paused and turned around, looked at Chen Yan behind her, and smiled lightly, "Only the next life?" ”

She lives in the afterlife now.

And what she wants to do is more than just revenge.

Chen Yan was stunned when he heard this, staring at the eyes of the girl in front of him looking at him, and the middle-aged man's already cloudy eyes became brighter and brighter.

"It's not just the afterlife." He paused, "We made an appointment, didn't we?" ”

There was a faint moonlight shining into the study, just like the moonlight at that time.

Looking at the girl standing in front of him, Chen Yan only felt that the scenery around him was rapidly retreating, returning to the dark mine. He was not a high-powered big Sima, just a frustrated general lying at the bottom of the pit, and in front of him stood the bold nine-year-old girl.

What he thought was a momentary joke at the time has become the only promise he can keep in this life.

Chen Yan stared at the pair of clear eyes that had not changed for many years, and earnestly repeated the promise that had always appeared in his dreams.

"I said that as long as I'm not old enough to climb a horse, I'm going to be your striker."

"Although I'm old, I can still hold a knife," Chen Yan patted his chest and smiled, "Besides, even if I'm really too old to climb the horse by then, I still have a son." ”

Speaking of this, the expression on his face suddenly became unnatural for a moment, and he coughed lightly and said, "There is also Zi Chuhe...... Zihan, you can choose any one. ”

"What do you mean by choosing any one," Ying Baoyue laughed when she heard this, "You can still choose any one of them." ”

It's not a draft......

The next moment she stared at the not very confident old father in front of her, "Do you think of him now?" ”

Through the thin paper window, she looked in the direction where Chen Zihan was punished to kneel before. Fortunately, Chen Zichu pulled Chen Zihan up, and the two of them stood upright in the courtyard.

A trace of embarrassment and complexity appeared on Chen Yan's face, and he looked at the two sons directly in the courtyard, "I'm really ......"

"I know you're going to have a hard time," Ying Baoyue looked at Chen Yan.

Chen Zihan's birth was said to have been drugged, and there were also stories of maids who took care of him and couldn't bear to let him have a miscarriage, and after Chen Zichu's mother died, Chen Yan was said to have been depressed for a long time because of guilt. But no matter how many versions of the rumor there are, there is no point in pursuing it now.

"Either you don't let this child be born, and since you let it be born, treat him normally." Ying Baoyue looked at the eyes of the man in front of her and said lightly, "It's not that you want to spoil your concubine, but let you not be too much to anyone." ”

Chen Zichu's situation is obviously a little too much, and Chen Zihan is over-suppressed.

"Parents' problems, don't hurt children." She spoke earnestly.

Chen Yan's shoulders shook slightly, and he suddenly remembered the attitude of Princess Qianqin towards Chunhuajun in the recent rumors.

Facing Ji Mo's wife's son, this girl has never had any change in attitude.

But ...... "But for so many years, he didn't know how to deal with these two children.

Because of guilt, he didn't want Chen Zichu to be cold.

Ying Baoyue knew what he was thinking when he looked at the eyes of the man in front of him.

"Are you afraid that if you don't punish Chen Zihan, Chen Zichu will be cold?"

Chen Yan nodded.

Ying Baoyue sighed in her heart, seventeen years have passed, and the veteran's stubbornness and admitting death have never changed.

Chen Zichu's attitude just now, I'm afraid that the old father still thinks that the eldest son's indifference is pretending.

"I can tell you very clearly," Ying Baoyue looked at Chen Yan and smiled, "What Chen Zichu just said is sincere. ”

Chen Yan was stunned when he heard this.

"Really?" The man paused and said, "Since you said it, it seems to be true." ”

He believed in the woman's ability to see people.

It seems that there will be no major problems after all.

"I have no intention of meddling in your family affairs, but the children are already older, if there is any problem, let them just go to the fight to solve it, you really don't need to interfere anymore." Ying Baoyue smiled and said.

Chen Yan's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have a sudden realization.

"Okay, I'm really leaving," Ying Baoyue said, "Regarding what your two sons are thinking and where their hearts are, I suggest you take a closer look at the detailed battle report of today's battle and see how they fought, rather than just looking at wins and losses and injuries." ”

Chen Yan nodded.

With his understanding of the battle between cultivators, he should be able to read their true hearts.

"Then I'll say goodbye first, I still have to participate in the second round of battles tomorrow," Ying Baoyue said as she reached out and pushed open the door of the study, and just as she was about to step out of the threshold, she suddenly turned around, looked at Chen Yan who was about to ask something, and smiled.

"As for the agreement we said earlier, there will be a chance in this life."

Chen Yan, who was about to ask her about her future plans, paused, looked at the girl in front of her with wide eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth the next moment.

Because he doesn't need to ask anymore.

If there is really a chance for him to fulfill his promise in this life, then any hardships and dangers faced by this girl in front of him.

She won't be defeated by it.

Ying Baoyue looked at the veteran who understood what she meant, smiled, turned around and stepped out of the threshold.

At this time, Chen Zichu and Chen Zihan, who heard her and their father's last words outside the door, were completely stunned.

"Agreed?" Glancing at Chen Yan, who was standing with his hands behind his back in the study, Chen Zichu hissed and caught up with Ying Baoyue, who was walking outside the courtyard.

Chen Zihan followed uneasily.

"Hey, what did you just say to my father's old man? You're not going to agree to any strange conditions, are you? ”

"Strange conditions?" Ying Baoyue looked at Chen Zichu beside her, and had to sigh that Chen Yan was indeed enough to spoil him.

"It's what he promised me," Ying Baoyue looked at him and smiled, and looked back at Chen Zihan, "I'm fine." ”

"What the hell is that ......," Chen Zichu's brows twisted into a knot.

"I can't tell you what the specifics are," Ying Baoyue quickened her pace, "I'm going back to prepare for tomorrow's game, don't you want to participate in Er Gongzi Chen?" Let's go back. ”

Chen Zihan paused, looking at the woman who came in a hurry, relieved him and hurriedly prepared to leave.

"Wait, it's so late, I'll send you back," Chen Zichu caught up from behind, "Otherwise, Chunhua should kill me......"

"How can it be so exaggerated," Ying Baoyue smiled back.

But the next moment, she paused, remembering the figure of the young man who had disappeared into the night in front of the Chen Mansion before.

Ji Jiashu said that he had something to do.

As an examiner, there is something to do in the night before tomorrow's battle.

And this matter, he went alone, it was like going to the wall in the middle of the night. I have to say, revealing a strange atmosphere.

Where is that young man at this time? And what are you going to do?

Ying hugged the moon's eyes slightly.

And at this time, under a piece of eaves that she couldn't see, Ji Jiashu was really flying against the wall.

He gathered all his breath and took advantage of the night to come to a magnificent mansion......

The weakest guards...... Back door.
