Chapter 48 The Old Butler
I got up early today to write and accidentally discovered that the novel was on the category list. I was a little overjoyed. As the first gift for the Mid-Autumn Festival, Qian Shuiyue had to work hard to update. I hope everyone will vote for it and give me a comment. Thank you!
……………………
In the restaurant private room, everyone sat around the Blue Bird Studio.
"Ajie, why haven't Shiyao come yet? We agreed to have dinner here at 8 o'clock to discuss the studio matters. It's almost ten o'clock now!" Liu Ruoxuan stared at Chen Jie tightly.
Zhong Shanshan: "Yes, Yaoyao is more docile than the little lamb. She won't stop coming without saying hello. It must be because you did something excessive to make her angry."
Chen Jie defended with a look of unfairness: "What I have? I just forbidden her from contacting the anonymous captain, and this is also for her."
"Shiyao usually follows you in everything. This time you did it too much. The anonymous captain may have really helped Shiyao with kindness, but she was beaten to death by you like this. No wonder she would be angry. If you continue like this, Shiyao will probably leave our studio, and you will find the person responsible for the treatment at that time." Zhou Junming analyzed the reasons why Chen Shiyao did not come, but did not forget to put pressure on Chen Jie.
"I think you hope Shiyao will pull the anonymous captain into the studio." Meatball said incisively.
Zhou Junming: "What do you mean? I'm just curious. He was able to pass the mythical difficulty trial alone. I want to see what he has more than us."
Guo Zhixuan said in a deep voice: "You have watched a lot of their videos from the Eternal Empire, the Mars of the Divine Wings, and the Beacon Wolf of the Iron Blooded Wolf, and the peak players of the Great Guild. Their skills are beyond our reach. This anonymous captain can put them aside so far, and even lead Shi Yao, who is only level 6, to break through the first three levels of illusion trial. Although the Divine Bow Gu Yue helped, his game technology is probably quite terrifying. Moreover, we were able to pass the ordinary trial so smoothly last night, which is also due to his exquisite tactics."
Liu Ruoxuan suddenly patted Chen Jie on the shoulder and cursed: "It's all your fault. If you hadn't stopped Shi Yao, maybe she had even taken the legendary equipment and mythical equipment now."
"You can't say that. Shi Yao said before that, the anonymous captain suddenly stepped down after the hero trial, and she gave up the next trial. Even if the anonymous captain invited her, she would not be able to enter the legendary trial again." Yaoyao defended Chen Jie.
"Looking back, Shi Yao said that the anonymous captain suddenly went offline, and it seemed that something happened." Liu Ruoxuan muttered.
"This anonymous captain is really a god. I don't know who he is. He landed directly on the Garden of Eden to step on several major guilds under his feet." Zhou Junming looked admiring.
Guo Zhixuan: "The eleven warriors on the 100 rankings in the "Divine Realm" all appeared on the Eden level rankings. Perhaps the anonymous captain has recently started playing international online games, so it is not a bad thing to meet them."
Chen Jie felt more and more uncomfortable when he heard it. He felt that all the problems were attributed to his persistence. In the end, he could only say helplessly:
"I'll try to tell Yaoyao to see if I can invite the anonymous captain."
Chen Jie had just made a video call from China Unicom, but he heard Chen Shiyao say weakly, "I feel a little uncomfortable" and then disconnect.
"She has red eyes, I think she has cried..." Chen Jie said guiltily.
...
After discussing the matter of going to Kafiran Capital, Chen Jie returned to the dormitory and headed straight to the refrigerator on the wooden wall, hoping to relieve his depression by eating ice cream, but found that the passion fruit-flavored ice cream at the top was gone.
"Huh? Where is my last passion fruit?"
Yan Feng noticed the movement outside the door from the beginning. When he heard Chen Jie's strange scream, he was a little surprised that he was "greedy" so quickly. Since he already knew, Yan Feng naturally had to give an explanation.
Yan Feng stood up and half open the door and said:
"My mouth was a little dry just now. Your... Passion Fruit Ice Cream... I took it to eat it."
Chen Jie was stunned, looked at Yan Feng, then looked at the snow frame of the refrigerator, and then shook his head. He ate and lived together for several days. After repeated questions, Chen Jie knew Yan Feng's taste well and did not believe that he would open the refrigerator to get things on his own.
Chen Jie looked around the hall carefully and finally turned his gaze on a pair of shoes under the door.
Yan Feng said intimately: "It's a bad thing..."
"I don't believe you will be 'greedy', so you just tell me honestly?" Chen Jie showed a wicked smile and looked aggressive.
Yan Feng doesn’t even touch fruits on weekdays, and it’s too difficult to justify himself by "eating passion fruit ice cream when you have a dry mouth".
"Although the school does not allow women to be brought into the dormitory, what's the point of bringing her sister in? I don't believe that even this will be investigated," Chen Jie unexpectedly thought of a remark for Yan Feng, "It's not good not to let her hide in the bedroom, it's scared her."
As he said that, Chen Jie walked into Yanfeng's bedroom indifferently.
"She sleeps..."
Yan Feng was about to stop him, but Chen Jie exclaimed:
"What a beautiful little loli, she looks quite similar to you."
Looks very similar to himself? Chen Jie's imagination made Yan Feng speechless...
After seeing off the quirky little girl, Yan Feng took the bus out of Nanda University, and then stopped an anti-gravity intelligent taxi on the platform.
"Jinghu Road Huifang Manor." Yan Feng said to the intelligent driver.
A few seconds later, a very magnetic male voice replied: "It will take about 9 minutes to find the Huifang Manor route. Please fasten your seat belt."
9 minutes later, Gravity Intelligent Taxi stopped at the door of a green manor.
"The fee is 514 yuan, please swipe the gold card... Thank you for your patronage, welcome to continue taking the Nandu Gravity Intelligent Taxi, wishing you a happy life!"
Yan Feng did not ring the doorbell, but directly pressed his finger on the fingerprint reader. The automatic door opened to both sides with a "click" sound, and then closed it again after he walked in.
As soon as I entered the manor, a faint fragrance came to my nose, and my eyes suddenly became clear. Under the golden light of the artificial sun, the lush trees and flowers and plants of different colors in the garden on the left showed extremely beautiful and pleasant. Yanfeng walked along the middle path toward the depths of the garden until he saw a middle-aged man dressed in a gardener.
"Butler." Yan Feng called out calmly.
The middle-aged man's body was shocked, and the sickle in his hand hung on a clump of flowers and trees and stopped moving. His eyes, which were somewhat turbid, were staring at Yanfeng blankly, and his eyes gradually became wet. Qiqi shouted in vain:
"Feng...Young Master..."
The butler quickly put down the tools in his hand, first holding Yan Feng's shoulders and looked at them carefully, then a fanatical hug, and said excitedly:
"I knew that the chairman and his wife would definitely bless the young master in heaven..."
The housekeeper is named Zheng Hongxin. He has worked in the Yang family for more than 20 years. In addition to taking care of housework for the Yang family, he also takes care of the affairs of the Yang family. He is the closest person Yan Feng is besides his parents and wet nurse. Huifang Manor was originally the residence where Yang Zhenhua chose to rest for his father, but unfortunately Yan Feng's grandfather died too early, so Yang Zhenhua gave the manor to Mr. Zheng, which shows how heavy he is in Yang Zhenhua's mind.
In the manor villa, Mr. Zheng tells the story of all the big and small things that happened to the Yang Group and the Yang family over the past two years.
"Mr. Feng, since you are back, will you go through the inheritance procedures immediately?" asked Mr. Zheng.
"The inheritance should be done secretly. I still have some things to figure out." Yan Feng answered very simply, recalling what the Scar leader said two years ago in his mind. He had already thought of many things. It is still unknown how long he could live in his body. Now his biggest wish is to confirm the truth of the matter and avenge the plane crash that year.
Butler Zheng read a strange hatred and coldness from Yan Feng's eyes. He sighed helplessly, got up and walked into the bedroom, then took out a box of semen and handed it to Yan Feng.
Yan Feng gently opened the lid of the box and found a blood-colored crystal pendant on the cotton pad inside the box. Although the reaction was subtle, he clearly felt that the blood in his body was being pulled by an inexplicable force.
"What is this?" Yan Feng asked.
"Three years ago, Yang Group broke through a top scientific research, and then officially named this result 'The Power of Life'. However, a few months later, the chairman and his wife died of a business plane crash... The research results and confidential information of the Power of Life were also destroyed in that crash." Mr. Zheng could hardly control his excitement when talking about this.
"The power of life... The graduate fruits of that year were not one, but two, right?" Before Mr. Zheng answered, Yan Feng then said, "This crystal is the remaining one. Although the highest technology research is confidential, there should be people in the group that have this information. I want to know, how many people intervene in investigating this matter?"
Butler Zheng opened his mouth and was so surprised that he didn't know how to answer the conversation. He didn't expect that Yan Feng could understand the truth with just a pendant.
"Who else has anyone else found you except my uncle?" Yan Feng asked directly.
"Mr. Feng, actually your uncle..." Butler Zheng looked at Yan Feng's firm eyes and swallowed back what he wanted to say, "In addition to your uncle, Mr. Li, Director Lu and the other three major shareholders have all been here, and... people from Jinhui Group have also visited."
"Jinhui Group? They really know something!" Yan Feng confirmed his guess and then asked:
"Didn't they make things difficult for you?"
Butler Zheng smiled bitterly: "I am just a butler, and they won't really doubt my head. The chairman should have predicted that something would happen. This blood crystal was handed over to me to keep it at the beginning of its production. In the next few months, I withdrew from the Yang Group's business in order to cover up. He once told me that this pendant would be left to you in the end."
Yan Feng slowly picked up the blood crystal pendant. At this moment, his heart that had been frozen for two years gradually melted, and a few drops of clear tears slid down his handsome cheeks.
After a long time, Butler Zheng helped him put the pendant around his neck and said with a gentle look:
"You will know the secret of this blood crystal after a long time. This is the original words of your father."
"Butler, please help me pay attention to their actions and investigate the information in the laboratory at that time." Yan Feng's mood quickly calmed down.
"Aren't the confidential information of the Power of Life destroyed?" Mr. Zheng asked in confusion.
Yan Feng: "If my father really expected that things would happen, he would have retained information about the power of life, and this blood crystal may be the last key."
Butler Zheng was shocked when he heard this, and connected the whole thing. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the truth was as Yan Feng inferred. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Master Zhenhua, if you know that the young master is so wise, you will definitely feel relieved, right?"
