Three people walked in outside the door, the leader was Qiu, followed a step behind by Xiao Zhilin and Zhao Wan. As soon as they came in, we all stood up, and we were called out one after another.
"Lord Qiu."
"Director Xiao."
"Director Zhao."
Hearing this, the three of them nodded slightly, and then Qiu went straight to the subject and said: "Ye Yan, I want to meet the saint's family, and I want you to show me the way."
"Of course it's okay to lead the way, it's just..." I first agreed to Qiu's request, then looked embarrassed, and then looked at Xiao Zhilin and Zhao Wan, with a questioning look in my eyes.
Faced with my question, Xiao Zhilin nodded and said: "Since Master Qiu has clearly asked you to lead the way, you don't need to stay here. We can go to the Imperial Bureau together later."
"Okay." I nodded, feeling extremely happy.
With Xiao Zhilin's permission, I can leave here in a reasonable and legal manner. Although the services inside the base are intoxicating, I still want to go back as soon as possible. There are many things that I must return to the Imperial Bureau to handle.
Before leaving, Zhao Wan said to everyone in the room: "People from the interrogation department will come over in a while to ask some questions. You just need to cooperate and answer truthfully. You will be free in three days at most."
"Okay." Everyone nodded.
I followed the three big guys and left the base. I met many people from the Federation on the way, but no one stopped me. I walked out smoothly. After leaving the base, Xiao Zhilin said to Qiu in a respectful tone: "Mr. Qiu
, Our destination is in this direction, you and I can arrive there smoothly."
"Actually, you don't have to call me that. I don't like this. Not everyone wants to be as perverted as Qi Qi." Qiu said gently: "You just need to call me the most common name here, otherwise I still think
It’s so uncomfortable.”
"Okay, Ms. Qiu..." Xiao Zhilin said hesitantly.
"This title is enough."
Qiu smiled, and then with a flash of golden light, she turned into a golden light and flew towards the direction of Yanxia Kingdom. Seeing this, Xiao Zhilin and Zhao Wan also followed suit. The only difference was that before Xiao Zhilin left, he
He stretched out his ghostly hand and held me firmly in his hand.
I was very depressed in the hands of ghosts.
Didn’t you agree that I would lead the way?
Don’t weak people have human rights?
As the scenery behind us quickly receded, a few minutes later, we stepped into the territory of Yanxia. As soon as we stepped into the country, we attracted the attention of countless eyes. All the powerful people in the cultivation world were extremely curious about Qiu, an ancient cultivator.
"What a strong aura!"
"The two chief bureau chiefs are accompanying us. This is quite a grand occasion."
"Isn't it strange? This woman's strength is no worse than Director Li!"
Many cultivators were talking about it along the way, and almost everyone's focus was on Qiu. As for me, who was dragged along behind Xiao Zhilin's butt, I was ignored by most people.
However, there were also some acquaintances who knew me and recognized me immediately.
"Isn't this Ye Yan? Why is he here?"
"Don't you know, Ye Yan's girlfriend Lin Wei is a descendant of the Holy Lord. With this relationship, can he have the same relationship with the ancient cultivator?"
"But isn't there a rumor that Lin Wei asked the ancient cultivator named Qi who blocked the news a few days ago to take him away. I didn't know if it was true or not at first, but now that he is alone, it is probably true."
Under the attention of countless eyes, we finally returned to the Imperial Bureau, and then went straight to the residential area.
After landing, I rubbed my hands.
It's so cold.
It's snowing in Diju today, and the surrounding temperature proves that winter has indeed entered. Looking at the familiar building in front of me, I couldn't help but exhale a breath of white air, which relieved my nervousness.
"Ye Yan." At this time, Qiu next to me took a deep look at me and said: "After all, you are Lin Wei's husband, and we are just outsiders, so there are some things that it is better for you to face first.
Let’s wait outside first.”
"Well..." I nodded, took a deep breath, and walked towards Lin's house with a heavy heart.
Before I got there, I saw my grandpa waiting outside the door from a distance. His eyes were not very good. Only when I got closer did he recognize me. He stepped on his slippers and walked towards me with a smile on his face.
He said with a genuine smile: "Oh, my grandson is back and he misses me so much!"
Although I am not my grandpa’s grandson, my grandpa thinks that his grandson and son-in-law are like family members, so he calls me grandson when he calls me. I also like this title, but when my grandpa called me that right now, I almost broke my guard.
.
Lin Wei lost me, how should I face my grandfather who treated me like a family member?
My face looked a little heavy, but my grandfather didn't notice it, but said with a smile: "Come in quickly."
After entering the house, I smelled the aroma of vegetables. I looked towards the kitchen and found Mother Lin busy. Seeing this, my grandfather smiled and said, "We heard half an hour ago that you were coming back. Your mother is happy.
I will cook for you two myself."
"By the way, why haven't you seen Lin Wei come back? Is she busy with other things?" Grandpa asked.
After hearing this, my mind went blank for a moment. I had considered the explanation many times on the road, but now I couldn't utter a single word. At this moment, Mother Lin's voice came from the kitchen.
"Dad, help me get the plate."
My grandpa's attention was diverted. When I saw this, I stood up and wanted to help, but my grandpa stopped me. My grandpa said that I must be exhausted after running around for three months, so he asked me to have a good rest.
As he spoke, he pushed me back into my seat, and he happily went to help.
Looking at the busy backs of my grandfather and Mother Lin, I felt even more uncomfortable. What should I tell them?
Soon the food was served. Mother Lin and Grandpa served me food with smiles on their faces and asked questions. They didn’t realize what was happening at the moment. Practitioners are already busy, and neither were Lin Wei and me.
We come here together every time, so they are not surprised by this.
"Eat more, it's the time to grow taller." Mother Lin said with concern.
In fact, I had already eaten, but seeing what Mother Lin said, I still ate a bowl of rice three times, five by two, intending to turn my grief and anger into appetite. Just when I finished the second bowl and was about to destroy it, Mother Lin
He turned the topic to Lin Wei and asked, "Son-in-law, why didn't Lin Wei come back with you?"
coming.
Hearing this, my hand holding the bowl trembled slightly, and my heart suddenly sank to the bottom. What was supposed to come has come. It is obviously winter, but my forehead is actually covered with sweat.
She was a woman after all. Maybe she noticed something was wrong with my expression. Mother Lin's face suddenly turned pale and she quickly asked: "Ye Yan, what are you talking about? Where is Lin Wei? Where did Lin Wei go?"
"Mom, Lin Wei is fine, she is safe." Hearing this, I spoke with difficulty and explained: "But you also know that Lin Wei is a descendant of the Holy Lord, and a senior took a fancy to her bloodline, and temporarily gave her a
She has stayed in the ancient battlefield and won’t be back for a short time.”
In the end...I still can't tell the truth of the matter.
My grandpa is over seventy years old this year. Although he seems to be in good health, he actually suffers from heart disease and other age-related diseases. If I tell the truth, he may not be able to handle it.
When he learned that his only biological granddaughter was being taken away, my grandfather accidentally passed by. After all, if Lin Wei was taken away, to outsiders, it was basically the same as not being able to come back, and it was no different from missing.
Mother Lin is also expected to collapse directly. After divorcing Mother Lin, her only spiritual support is Lin Wei. If Lin Wei disappears, the pillar she relies on for survival will also collapse, and half of her life will probably be lost.
.
It is said that motherhood is strong, but if the mother loses her child, it means that the mother loses the whole world. You can imagine how serious the consequences will be.
After much thought, I finally decided not to tell the truth.
I'll use this reason to block it for a while, and wait until one day I bring Lin Wei back intact, and then it won't be too late to tell Mother and Grandpa Lin the truth!
