Chapter 493 - 221: The Unstoppable White Swan! The 3-Year Promise Finally Comes! (Seeking Support)_3
He didn’t want people from far away to know about his situation, otherwise what if it wasn’t Xu Rufeng who came today, but someone else? What if an enemy showed up?
That would be a disaster.
Xu Rufeng is a good guy, but that doesn’t mean this thing is good; let’s keep things separate.
"What year is it now? Am I clashing with Tai Sui? Last year was fine, but this year there’s been a lot more hassle. First I went to Canglan City, then finally found the beauty Song, and before there could be anything between us, Song Qingshan jumped in."
"Plus, there were those large-scale disappearance cases in Canglan City, and even that had me running all over the place."
"And just now, Beauty Han mysteriously ate a Ginseng Fruit, and didn’t even taste anything before it slid straight into her stomach."
"And now, out of nowhere, the Celestial Craft Workshop folks are here, as well as the star observatory people. What’s going on?"
If it weren’t for Beauty Han being so shy and proactive yesterday, he wouldn’t be in such a good mood today.
"So are you guys just trying to dump a bunch of messes on me before I leave?"
Yuchi, right now, has too much on his plate.
The City Lord of Jiangzhou City needs to be met, as do the people in Jiangzhou City’s pavilions. Then there are matters with Su Ruyi, and detailed cooperation plans to be worked out. Then it’s off to Cyan Mountain Port, and figuring out how to get Beauty Han out of the Great Tang Prison...
So much is unfinished, and now even more is piling up?
To be honest, he doesn’t like people barging into his home. This is his last stronghold. If truly there’s a great relationship, or they’re not a threat, it’s fine to have guests. But if the relationship is just so-so and they’re formidable, is it necessary to bring them home?
A crafty rabbit has three burrows, and now even his last den is compromised.
"Well, I’m just passing through. Thank goodness for a doting little sister, or else I might well fall into darkness, damn it!" Yuchi cursed.
He could easily just forcibly recruit disciples, conquer them, which wouldn’t be impossible and would be much more satisfying.
Surely he wasn’t just a good person who wanted to do good deeds, only to have people take advantage of him?
Though he had these thoughts, Yuchi’s face remained friendly, and he even poured a cup of tea for Song Qingshan: "Senior, what brings you here today?"
"Simple. In front of me, say you’ll never see Yinghan again, and I’ll pretend this never happened. Otherwise, I only have one daughter, and if you don’t agree, I might take some actions." Song Qingshan didn’t spell it out.
But his meaning was clear: Yuchi, you don’t deserve to be with my daughter, so get lost.
With the mask concealing his face, Yuchi used to see Song Qingshan as respectable, but now he seemed like an old man with a few screws loose.
"Or should I just demolish his star observatory? Let’s see how he acts then." Feeling a bit confused, he glanced at Song Yinghan, who sat quietly nearby, her face hidden by a White Fox Mask, saying nothing.
"Yinghan, what’s your stance?" Yuchi didn’t answer directly but said kindly with a smile.
This situation was like a father-in-law who didn’t think much of his son-in-law. Not only did the son-in-law’s attitude matter; the daughter’s stance was crucial too. If the son-in-law gave it his all, but the daughter acted indifferent as if this was all normal, then why should he bother?
Who do you think you are? Forget it, if we don’t get along, we go our separate ways. Whether we end up together or not, the family dynamics would be poor. As if they couldn’t live without each other.
This was just such a situation.
If Song Yinghan yielded to Song Qingshan and backed off, then he alone couldn’t take down Song Qingshan from the outside—it was nearly impossible.
Is Beauty Han not appealing, or is Yuan’Er not comforting? Or does holding the beautiful Huo Yuluo not feel right?
There are too many things that simply weren’t meant to be, and Yuchi wasn’t scared of any of it.
Song Yinghan clearly understood what Yuchi meant. She knew that if she chose wrong this time, she’d miss the chance for good. Yuchi might not lose much, but she’d remember it for the rest of her life.
Was there any hesitation still? If there was, she wouldn’t have come to Xufu Town.
Nodding firmly: "I won’t give up on you."
Relieved, Yuchi smiled: "That’s my stance as well. Leave the rest to me; it’s no big deal."
No big deal? Song Qingshan might laugh in anger. If Xu Rufeng weren’t nearby, he would’ve acted already. He wondered where Yuchi got his confidence!
Yuchi looked at the silent Song Qingshan: "Senior, how can I get you to let go? How can I make Yinghan leave the star observatory?"
Leave? Ha, Song Qingshan: "Beat me."
