Chapter 1230 - 1249: Figured It Out
Nan Fei said to herself, "It must be because of the intense training over the past two months. You have no idea, Jiang Yang, how exhausting it is. Every day, I felt so exhausted I wanted to die, but thankfully, I persevered. Now, I can take down three to five grown men all by myself, no problem."
"Sister Nan Fei is amazing," Jiang Yang flattered like a sycophant. "My Sister Nan Fei is the best."
"Hahaha..." Nan Fei laughed along. "I also think I’m the best."
The siblings burst out laughing together.
Outside the door, two people who had been standing silently heard the clear laughter from inside and also showed knowing smiles. Huo Beijiang elbowed Wei Qin and said in a rascally tone, "You can relax now, right? Our family’s issues are not for you to worry about."
"Yes!" Wei Qin sighed and followed Huo Beijiang towards Maple Garden.
By that time, the second floor’s large balcony at Maple Garden had been turned into a glass conservatory, warm even in winter. It was Wei Qin’s first visit, and as he entered the garden house, basking in the warm sunlight, he couldn’t help but squint his eyes and jest, "No wonder none of you return to the compound; this place is indeed more comfortable than the compound."
Over the years, the economic development had been so rapid that many villa facilities outside had long surpassed those in the compound.
Thus, some young people chose not to live in the compound anymore but moved outside, returning only during festivals or family events. The compound housed mostly old leaders and senior military officers.
That was because the security there was the best.
In fact, given Huo Beijiang’s status, he was supposed to live in the compound, where there were family doctors and security guards—amenities unmatched by the outside world.
