Chapter 250 - 242: Distribution of Benefits
Lu Aiguo was overwhelmed with myriad thoughts as he was transported back to the scene in the study of his family’s quadrangle house that afternoon.
As soon as he sat down in the study, Pei Qingyuan spoke candidly to them all, "In this world, it’s hard to find a wall that doesn’t let wind through. Now that these things have been brought out, there’s no room for regret. The elixirs and the cultivation methods for spiritual power could each spark any person or force to seize them at all costs."
"This not only refers to forces within our country but could also include foreign powers. Therefore, the level of danger can only be high, not low. This is also why the issue of everyone’s safety in the future is critical."
"When the time comes, there will be professionals specifically responsible for your security. These people usually operate in the shadows, but as long as you’re aware of their presence, you can go about your usual business without impact. However, should the need arise, they will emerge from the shadows. All I hope is that you will cooperate with their efforts and not, due to a moment of negligence or carelessness, fall into the hands of those with ulterior motives, becoming a tool that others might think can be used to threaten or control Xiaoyun."
Actually, Pei Qingyuan didn’t need to elaborate; everyone had already mentally prepared for this. But his words now made it clearer, and everyone’s faces suddenly turned solemn.
Pei Qingyuan was quite satisfied with their serious attitudes, as it was always better to be conscientious about one’s safety than careless. He then looked at Lu Yun with a sigh, "Xiaoyun, I’m afraid it’s an inconvenience for you, but you’re probably not suitable to go back to school anymore... "
He saw that Lu Yun did not show any signs of unhappiness, which relieved him, and his voice took on a teasing tone, "But don’t worry about your academic qualifications. Even if it means getting your doctorate directly, Grandpa can guarantee that won’t be a problem."
At these words, Lu Yun couldn’t help but giggle, "Grandpa, I don’t feel at a loss at all. In fact, I don’t like going to school one bit. I’m more than happy to stay away, does the diploma really matter that much?"
