While Ye Fan and Wei Hongchao were about to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, a convoy was slowly reaching the dock on the south side of Baocheng.
The car stopped, and a group of men in black with live ammunition dispersed, blocking the entire dock.
Then, six men and women in Mai appeared and hid in various dark corners like ghosts.
Finally, Jin Sifei came out, opened an umbrella, and placed it behind a car in the middle.
Ye Tiandong showed up indifferently, holding a bottle of bamboo leaf green and a pack of white sand smoke in his hand.
He took the umbrella and walked alone towards an inconspicuous fishing boat on the shore.
Soon he walked into the deck, walked through the cabin, and came to the stern that was simply covered with iron.
He saw Ye Wujiu sitting on a horse stool, leisurely guarding a stove.
Fish pieces and tofu were boiled in the stove, steaming hot and fragrant.
"When did you become so passionate about life?"
Ye Tiandong walked over with a smile, then took a horse stool and sat down: "This does not fit your ruthless character."
"When people get older and have more thoughts, they will have ideas about life."
Ye Wujiu didn't raise his head and threw the charcoal: "And I used to be indifferent and cold-blooded, just to avoid being knocked down by your sugar-coated shells."
"I am responsible for supervising the leaders of the three old and young sects. If I have too much to do with you, I will inevitably be at ease when doing things."
"Besides, if you have a friendship with you, if you want to kill you one day, it will be a cruelty to me that I can't say."
He swept away the kindness in front of Ye Fan, and there was no sign of depth on his face: "So it would be better to be cold-blooded at that time."
Ye Tiandong put bamboo leaf green and white sand smoke on the wooden table:
"It seems that it's great to be old. When you get old, the warmth will also rise."
"But what you are now is probably related to your last life-and-death life."
He changed his subject: "It's a pity that what happened during the infiltration into District 13, you still don't want to reveal a word to me."
"The task is enough, and the process is not important at all."
Ye Wujiu took the white sand smoke and said, "And I don't want you to see my embarrassment, otherwise it will affect your next mission judgment."
"Okay, I won't ask about yours. I'm very satisfied that our friendship can progress like this."
Ye Tiandong laughed: "At least you have completed the task this time, and you are willing to see me and accept my gift."
"I took these things from you and came to see you because Ye Fan is also my son. I have raised him for twenty years."
Ye Wujiu moved quickly to remove the white smoke, then pinched out one and slashed it on the stove, and the cigarette lit it:
"But in the past twenty years, I have not cared much about them, mother and son. I just treat it as a tool for grouping together to keep warm after completing the task, and I have never had any feelings."
"This time, you gave me a chance to make up for the shortcomings and made me feel a little guilty. Of course, I would like to thank you in person."
"At the same time, I want to tell you by the way that Ye Fan is my son, not your son."
He looked at Ye Tiandong: "You and Zhao Mingyue should not seek medical treatment in a hurry. Take my son as your lost child."
"It's really fate hahaha."
Seeing Ye Wujiu protecting his calf, Ye Tiandong couldn't help laughing:
"I looked through Ye Fan's information at that time, but I never thought you would be his adoptive father."
"But don't worry, I just recognize Ye Fan as my godson and will not steal yours."
"There's no way. He's so good. I don't want to take over, but I can't stop sympathizing with each other."
"Don't worry, you have raised him for twenty years and saved him. He must have had a deeper relationship with you than my cheap godfather."
After knowing Ye Wujiu for so many years, this is the first time Ye Tiandong is nervous when he sees him, so he can't stop joking.
"I'm not worried about you taking over, I'm just you're illusioned and treating Ye Fan as your lost child."
"One day you wake up, you will suffer greater damage. By then, Zhao Mingyue will probably really collapse to death."
Ye Wujiu slowly let out a smoke ring: "Because I know, no one can replace the lost child's position in your heart."
Ye Tiandong's smile restrained his eyes, and his expression became more lonely, a little melancholy, and a little pain.
He also has feelings and is heartbreaking, but he cannot express it in front of Zhao Mingyue, which also makes him feel even more distressed.
"Yes, the child cannot get through, and even the attacks cannot get through."
"It's a pity that my focus is still on Ye Tang. If I don't complete Ye Tang and break the vicious circle of "wealth is not as rich as three generations", I will never be able to spend my energy to investigate it in full."
Ye Tiandong's eyes were slightly cold: "After all, that time it involved too many forces, and even someone inside Ye Tang was fueling the fire..."
"Understand you."
Ye Wujiu tuned the flames of the red stove: "I guess that Zhao Mingyue was besieged is related to that rumor."
"Rumor Zhao Mingyue was nominally going home to visit her relatives, but in fact she brought Ye Tang elites to support Tang Sanguo and led all the forces that framed Tang Sanguo out and killed them."
"Those forces were afraid of Tang Sanguo's turnaround, and were worried that Zhao Mingyue would cause bloody storm, so they joined forces to do such a blow."
"There is no way, who told Zhao Mingyue and Tang Sanguo to be old classmates?"
He sighed softly: "And Zhao Mingyue's record was huge at that time, and Ye Tang's real No. 2 figure."
"When did you become so gossipy?"
Ye Tiandong took two pairs of bowls and chopsticks: "I heard so many messy things."
"There's no way, who told Ye Fan to get involved with you?"
Ye Wujiu said lightly: "I must pay more attention to it, so as not to get involved in your vortex, such as the Dragon God Temple this time..."
"The Dragon God Temple is mainly for me this time, and I want to attack Wei Hongchao and the Flying Snake Squad to destroy my authority."
A light flashed in Ye Tiandong's eyes: "I will give Ye Fan an explanation for this."
"The Dragon God Temple has a close relationship with the Eastern King. To put it bluntly, 90% of it was done by your adopted son."
Ye Wujiu asked: "You should have your own judgment in your heart. Do you still have to fulfill the old lady's second promise in this way?"
"In the past, the old lady had a fuss with Mingyue, and both sides made two promises in the witness of me and the Seven Kings."
Ye Tiandong sighed while pinching the chopsticks:
"With eighteen years, if your son is not found and you have another child, Ye Jincheng will be adopted by the third bedroom."
"After adoption, in another eight years, before finding his son, the family business will be transferred to Yebin City's name."
"This year happens to be the eighth year after adoption, and there is still no news about the lost children. What else can we do besides fulfilling our promises?"
He looked at Ye Wujiu and smiled: "Why do you carry the crutches of the old lady or the old Zhai Master for me?"
"Don't interfere with the specific internal affairs of the three halls. This is the rule set by the three halls. If I don't abide by it, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Ye Wujiu stood up with white sand and spit out a faint smoke ring:
"Now, I can only wait for a miracle to be born..."
