CHAPTER 712: CHAPTER 711: CUI SHENG CLAN (2/3)

Ningchuan.

Guard area.

In an empty warehouse.

To avoid attention and ensure safety, they gathered here.

Looking at the people in front of him, Yang Chen felt very grateful.

It’s only at critical moments that you see what true brotherhood means.

"Brothers, have you broken quite a few rules coming out this time?" Yang Chen said to the members of the Dragon Tooth Squad.

"No worries!" Night Fire smirked, "Anyway, we’ll just take on a few more missions."

Yang Chen shook his head.

Perhaps it was like that before, but now their days aren’t going to be so easy.

The team of men in black seemed to be a special squad. If the person directly leading this squad is who Yang Chen guessed, the Dragon Tooth Squad’s position could be in danger.

Yang Chen looked at Zhou Botao, who was curled up in a corner.

Zhou Botao shook his head when he saw Yang Chen looking at him.

"Compared to facing a major leader’s criticism, you guys should head back first; when the time comes, I’ll talk to the leader about this." Yang Chen said.

Night Fire exchanged a glance with Jian Feng, and then said to Yang Chen, "We’ll go back in three days."

Yang Chen knew their intentions, so he didn’t say much more.

"Let’s rest first! In the evening, let’s have some drinks together!"

After speaking, Yang Chen took Ye Xin’s little hand and walked out of the warehouse.

In Old Zhuo’s small courtyard.

Ye Xin held Yang Chen’s hand excitedly, "It’s been a long time since I came back, I really missed it."

Yang Chen smiled at Ye Xin.

This place at Old Zhuo’s indeed felt especially cozy, just like being back at one’s parents’ home.

As they walked into the courtyard, Old Zhuo and Qin Zhiyuan came out.

The two old men were very excited as soon as they saw the two.

"Come, come, come! Come in quickly!"

"Hurry, come in!"

The two walked in and were pulled to sit on the sofa by the two old men, who then began to ask about their well-being.

"How’s Xiaoxin, did they make things difficult for you?" Qin Zhiyuan asked.

Ye Xin smiled and shook her head, "No, they were quite respectful to me, no one dared to mess with me."

"That’s good! That’s good!" Qin Zhiyuan nodded repeatedly, as if relieved.

Old Zhuo looked at Yang Chen and asked, "How did you deal with things on the Shangqing Sect side?"

Yang Chen thought for a moment and then said honestly, "I arranged with their Sect Master to discuss the specific details at the Jin Chen Ye family in three days, but I’m not sure yet what conditions they’ll propose."

Old Zhuo said solemnly, "Don’t be afraid, no matter what, I’m always behind you. Don’t worry about any issues, and don’t compromise with them. If there’s a fight, we’ll be with you to the end!"

Hearing this, Yang Chen was deeply moved.

Even though he and Old Zhuo had no blood relation, Old Zhuo’s care for him was no less than that of his own son.

And the fact that Old Zhuo could go this far for him left Yang Chen speechless with gratitude, melted into his heart.

Seeing Yang Chen’s speechless look, Old Zhuo quickly said, "Let’s not talk about this. Xiaoxin’s back, that’s the best news. You all wait here while I get some good food made for you in the kitchen."

"No need to stay here, Uncle Zhuo, let’s go to the warehouse and eat together with everyone," Yang Chen said.

"Okay! Let’s eat together! It’ll be lively." Old Zhuo laughed, "I’ll go arrange it!"

With that, Old Zhuo walked out.

Qin Zhiyuan looked at Yang Chen and Ye Xin, earnestly, "Having you two together wasn’t easy. Yang Chen has seen his family’s decline, yet Xiaoxin, you remained devoted, which honestly touches me. It shows that our little Chen found the right person, a blessing from the last life."

"Don’t say that," Ye Xin quickly replied, "I’m with Yang Chen out of our own willing love, and it has nothing to do with any previous engagement."

Knowing Ye Xin’s nature, if she didn’t like it, even a marriage contract would be useless.

Qin Zhiyuan spoke seriously, "You two being together wasn’t easy, having gone through so much... have you thought about formally holding a wedding? If you want, I can approach your Ye family with Old Zhuo to formally propose, going through the proper processes, and not missing any betrothal gifts or courtesies."

Hearing this, Ye Xin’s face suddenly turned red, and she looked at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen, noticing this, quickly said, "Director, why bring this up all of a sudden? There’s no rush for this!"

Qin Zhiyuan glared, "Why not rush? You’ve finally come together, shouldn’t you have the wedding? Both the Yang and Ye families are among the top in Flame Country, yet if you don’t hold a wedding, wouldn’t it be laughable?"

"Who said we won’t have it!" Yang Chen hurriedly said, "There will definitely be a wedding, but not now. I’ve already discussed it with Xinxin, so there’s no need for you to worry about it."

"You’re not lying to me?" Qin Zhiyuan suspiciously looked at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen was a bit helpless, "Why would I lie to you? There’s no purpose in lying about this!"

Yang Chen glanced at Ye Xin, "Marrying such a beautiful wife, I can’t wait for the whole world to know! Why hide it?"

Hearing this, Qin Zhiyuan finally believed, nodding slowly.

Seeing Qin Zhiyuan nod, Yang Chen felt a bit relieved, fearing Qin Zhiyuan would continue pressing the issue.

"Oh!" Qin Zhiyuan suddenly said again.

"Huh?" Yang Chen looked at Qin Zhiyuan, annoyed, "What else is there?"

Qin Zhiyuan eagerly looked at the two, "Since you’ve already got your marriage certificate, then the wedding can be whenever, but have the baby first! Old Zhuo and I are still available to watch the child for you, Yanyan can help too. Besides, I run a kindergarten, the child can come here to learn, how convenient!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen was stunned.

Ye Xin blushed, her hand pinching fiercely at Yang Chen’s waist!

Yang Chen was in pain, rushed to say, "Well! Director, we haven’t even had the wedding yet, how can we have a child? Besides, Xinxin is a lady of Ye family, if we have a child without a wedding, wouldn’t it be more gossiped about!"

"Then have the wedding first!" Qin Zhiyuan said with eyes wide open.

"This..." Yang Chen’s face almost froze with embarrassment.

Ye Xin thought for a moment, blushing, and said to Qin Zhiyuan, "Uncle, don’t worry, we will definitely have children in the future. It’s just that you know my identity, and I still haven’t finished transitioning my work. Once the work is sorted, I’ll take time off to have a child. By then, we’ll leave the child with you to watch, so you won’t feel lonely."

Qin Zhiyuan nodded repeatedly, "Good! That’s good, work is important, handle work first... but settle the work quickly too. You’re young, there’s less pressure, many things after having a child, give the child to us, and you’ll still have lots of private space."

The two sat aside, laughing awkwardly.

They never thought they would become the kind pressed by family to have children...
