Chuanbei Jing residence
Jing Hanchuan leaned against the sofa and fiddled with the last bit of fish food on the red porcelain plate. âWhat has Linbai been busy with recently? I havenât seen him in the group chat.â
âHe said heâs participating in some kind of Eye Appreciation Association.â
âItâs just the beginning of spring, and heâs already busy.â Jing Hanchuan fed the fish with a relaxed expression.
After all, these things had nothing to do with him. He only thought that he should get more fishlings for his ponds in spring.
âWhen spring arrived, not only did all things start to stir, but even all kinds of people appeared.
âthink he said that thereâs an Eye Appreciation Day in June. He even said that they want to hold an event. He goes there every day to volunteer and is extremely busy.â Fu Chen chuckled. Duan Linbai was a typical person who couldnât stay idle. âBesides, I heard that Joe might really be holding a design
exhibition, and heâs already in contact with Linbai.â
âHeâs really coming?â Jing Hanchuan raised his eyebrows. âIf Linbai organizes this event, heâll make a lot of money.â
Previously, during Little Mr. Yanâs full moon banquet, Duan Linbai had mentioned this to Tang Jingci. At the time, they had only interacted a little, but he didnât expect it to really happen.
âYou should be the one to control this matter. After all, heâs your future father-in-lawâs senior brother. That way, you can also make your presence known.â
Fu Chen fiddled with the bracelet. âPeople have different specialties. In terms of organizing events and publicity, Iâm indeed not as good as Duan Linbai.â
âYouâre actually admitting that youâre not as good as Duan Linbai?â
âYes.â Fu Chen nodded. âHanchuanâ¦â
âHmm?*
âIf Sinian canât handle it, can you helpâ¦â
Jing Hanchuanâs fingers paused, and a dark glint flashed across his eyes. âI can lend him some people if he doesnât have enough.â He looked around.
Fu Chen sneered. âIâm talking about the venue. After all, your family has some friendship with Lingnanâ¦â
âYes, the friendship of having fought each other before.â Jing Hanchuan threw the last bit of fish food into the water.
âOnce our family and the one in Lingnan meet.
âThere must be death.
âBesides, your father and this family are the ones who are on good terms. If it really doesnât work out, your father will definitely be able to resolve it. Lingnanâ¦â
âWhen Jing Hanchuan said this, Song Fengwan had just returned with Huai Sheng. Then he stopped talking.
Song Fengwan raised her eyebrows. I clearly heard the word âLingnanâ. Why did he suddenly stop talking? Moreover, from his expression, he seems extremely unwilling to mention this family.
âSixth Uncle, look at the flowers I picked. Theyâre for you!â Huai Sheng passed all the flowers he had picked to Jing Hanchuan.
âThe comers of Jing Hanchuanâs mouth twitched. His backyard didnât have many flowers, and they were all plants that grew green all year round. With just these few flowers, this little thief monk had probably stolen them all.
Song Fengwan touched her nose.
âWhen Huai Sheng picked the flowers, Song Fengwan had reprimanded him, saying that these flowers were specially planted and shouldnât be picked casually. He had to apologize to Jing Hanchuan when they returned.
In the end, this little fellow actually used Jing Hanchuanâs own flowers and gave them to him.
It made Jing Hanchuan unable to reprimand him even if he wanted to.

âHuai Sheng, pack your things. Weâre going home.â Fu Chen got up.
Jing Hanchuan heaved a long sigh of relief. This little debt collector is finally leaving.
Huai Sheng didnât have many things, so he packed up in ten minutes.
âSixth Uncle, Iâm leaving. Thank you for taking care of me these days.â Huai Sheng had been educated well by Fu Chen.
Huai Sheng beckoned him with his finger. Jing Hanchuan thought that he had something to say to him, so he leaned down.
Smooch! Huai Sheng kissed the side of his face. The Jing family members at the side were all dumbfounded.
F*ck!
âGoodbye, Sixth Uncle!â Huai Sheng waved at him and held Song Fengwanâs hand as they walked out.
Jing Hanchuanâs fingers trembled as he touched his face. It was as if he had been infected with a virus. He rushed to the bathroom and washed his face. This child is so troublesome.
He was feeling depressed, so he turned on his phone. The lyricsâ⦠Ask the sacred monk whether the maiden is beautifulâ¦â sounded. His head started throbbing.

Fu Chen drove while Song Fengwan and Huai Sheng sat in the back. Perhaps because it was time for an afternoon nap, Huai Sheng, who had been making a fuss just now, had already fallen asleep on Song Fengwanâs lap.
âThird Brotherâ¦â
âHuh?â There had always been a lot of traffic in Beijing. The car was preparing to enter the highway, and at this moment, the cars were slowly separating.
âWhatâs wrong with Lingnan?â Song Fengwan was curious for a long time. âSixth Master seems unwilling to mention this family.â
âTheyâve fought.â
âHuh? Fought?â
âEveryone has a childhood. Hanchuan wasnât like this at birth. There were always times when he was young and impetuous. His temper wasnât good back then, and he inherited a little of it from his father. He was overbearing and domineering.â
Song Fengwan nodded. To be honest, with the Jing familyâs reputation, it was impossible for him not to be domineering.
âI donât know the exact reason. It seems someone had a broken head.â
Song Fengwan was dumbfounded. âWas there blood?â
âNot only was there blood, but there might also be a scar.â
âThen, how did he solve it?â
Fu Chen thought for a bit. After all, it had been a long time.
âThat family is also a tiger. They brought a group of people and rushed to the Jing residence in a grandiose manner to demand an explanation. At the time, it was said that the police were alarmed. Under the supervision of the police, the two parties discussed for a while. It was nothing more than
compensation and an apology.
âJing Hanchuan was also reprimanded for this. Afterward, his personality changed a lot. He was probably frightened too. He was only five or six years old at the time. I heard that the childâs face was covered in blood.
âThe two families donât have any friendship to begin with. This family rushed over with more than a hundred people to put pressure on them, After this matter blew up, it basically became the situation of a king not seeing another king.â
Song Fengwan understood. âNo wonder he wasnât willing to bring this matter up.â
âTheard that this family came with bricks at the time. They said that according to the rules of the underworld, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. They didnât want compensation, but they had to smash his head to see blood.â
Song Fengwan was stunned. âSo fierce?â
âItâs all rumors. I only heard my father mention it by chance. Only the two families know what exactly happened. But Hanchuan has never been willing to mention this.â
âThen, wonât it be difficult to negotiate for Big Sister Yuâs wedding venue?â Song Fengwan was a little worried.
According to these rumors, this family should be very fierce.
âTm not sure. Iâve never interacted with this family.â He didnât know much about them. Negotiating for the venue could only depend on Fu Sinian and Yu Manxi. Fu Chen really couldnât help in this aspect.
âBig Sister Tang will be coming to the capital in a few days. Iâm planning to take her shopping,â Song Fengwan said.
âLet me know if you need anything.â
âImight need to borrow a car from you.â Song Fengwan seemed to already have a plan. âShe might want to go to the antique market. Itâs a little far, so itâs not convenient to take a taxi.â
âSure. When she comes here, we can treat her to a meal.â Fu Chen knew that their relationship wasnât bad.
âMy cousin will come too,â Song Fengwan added.
Fu Chen gripped the steering wheel tightly. âWhy is he coming here?â
âthink he said that Big Sister Tang is unfamiliar with this place. Ermâ¦â Song Fengwan rubbed her nose. âSecond Uncle-Master feels that⦠he doesnât look proper.â
This he was naturally referring to Duan Linbai.
âSecond Uncle-Master asked me if heâs an internet celebrity and is in charge of a few companies.â Song Fengwan didnât know whether to laugh or cry when she remembered that she had received a call from her second uncle-master.
Duan Linbai was too active online. He had searched online on Baidu, and there was a lot of gossip about him and other internet celebrities.
âHe did investigate, but he still felt worried, so he asked Cousin to come along. He said that if something happens, there will always be someone to take care of her.â
âWhen are they arriving? Do you need to pick them up?â After all, he was his future brother-in-law, so Fu Chen naturally wanted to perform appropriately.
âIt shouldnât be necessary. Big Sister Tang will fly straight to Suzhou and drive here with Cousin, Sheâll be here in two days.â
After the full moon banquet, Tang Jingci had only stayed in Nanjiang for two days before returning to M Nation. She only came back to China again because of the design exhibition.
Fu Chen nodded with a smile. Linbai will probably be scared to death by Qiao Xiyan.
At this moment, Duan Linbai was still working as a volunteer at the Eye Appreciation Association. He went to a nursing home to help clean the yard. A gust of wind blew, and dust flew everywhere. He was caught off guard and sneezed five or six times in a row.
âF*ckââ He rubbed his nose and sneezed a few more times.
I keep feeling that this sneeze is unusual. Is someone secretly thinking about me behind my back?
ee
Suzhou.
Tang Jingci had already arrived in Suzhou. Qiao Wangbei was the one who picked her up, and she stayed in a hotel. In the Qiao family, other than Qiao Wangbei and his son, there were also some apprentices. They were all men, so it wasnât convenient for her to stay in his house.
Tang Jingci went to the Qiao residence to take a look.
Qiao Xiyan packed his luggage and went to the hotel to pick her up. When he saw the carving knives and tools she had packed, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
âYouâre bringing these too?â Why would a girl bring knives when she goes out?
âYes.â Tang Jingci nodded, feeling a little embarrassed to look Qiao Xiyan in the eye, thinking that he definitely thought she was a weirdo.
But after getting into the car, she found that Qiao Xiyan was also someone who carried knives with him.
So.
They were kindred spirits.
When Duan Linbai found out that Tang Jingci was coming, he was naturally happy to welcome her. But he had no idea that danger was approaching..
