Chapter 82: Be bold in guessing, be careful in verifying

But now I tell myself that the evidence that dealt the final blow to the Zhou family was placed by the Ji family. Even though it was just the last straw that broke the camel's back, it was enough to prove that the Ji family was involved in the attempt to destroy the Zhou family. I just don't know what role they played.

"It is because of my understanding that I have never doubted it for so many years. But now that I know that the Ji family is also involved, I am even more confused. The Zhou family is just curing diseases and saving lives, and they don't conflict with others. Who are they blocking? How much benefit can they get to turn their in-laws?"

Zhou You really doesn't feel that he is blocking anyone's way.

"If you're talking about gaining benefits from the company's operations, I don't think so. I was previously assigned to intern in the company's finance department. I've looked at the accounts of previous years and they were all very normal cooperation. It's possible that the Ji family could backstab the Zhou family. According to Grandpa's personality, the benefits they get must be far greater than what the Zhou family brings."

Ji Yimu analyzed, "If it is not reflected in economic exchanges, then what is it?"

The three of them sat on the sofa in the living room, lost in thought.

"Do you think Master, is there anything they want here?"

Yan Yue opened up new ideas.

"Why would anyone covet me? All my medical skills are in my head, and I have my experience notes. I can share them with anyone who wants to learn. That's not the case."

Zhou You thought about it and realized that he really didn't have anything that could be coveted by others, and that things that were worth coveting couldn't be taken away.

"As for money, the Ji family probably won't care about my little money. Even the total funds of the Zhou family during its heyday would not be as much as what Amu has saved for us in the past few years."

If you think about it, he really has nothing.

"Then why do they want you?"

"It can't be for the Zhou family's legendary recipe, right?"

Zhou You felt that this was even more unbelievable. It was said to be a legend, so who could believe it?

"Maybe that's why."

Ji Yimu now feels that every possibility is worth trying.

What if it is true? It would still be very dangerous for them now. They are in the open now, and if someone really wants to deal with them, it would be easy.

And those who hide in the dark, they know nothing.

"But legends are just legends. Who would believe them?"

Zhou You doesn’t think anyone would really believe it.

"But Master, now it is proven that the legend is true.

Maybe someone has found out through some special means and believes it."

"Besides, the ancestors of the Zhou family practiced Taoism. Does that mean that other families also practiced Taoism? Do they also leave behind some legends or other things?"

Make bold assumptions and verify them carefully.

"Let's assume that the other party is after this legend. Then the first thing he needs to do is to confirm the authenticity of this thing. If it doesn't exist, he should give up. If it does exist, he will figure out how to obtain it."

There are too many things that shackle them now, and too many unclear points.

"I have never told anyone about that legend, except..."

Zhou You's expression changed as he spoke.

"Besides you, there's me, grandma, and my mom."

Ji Yimu added, well, if there was a leak, he knew where it came from.

"Since my mother knows, it's not surprising that other members of the Ji family would know."

Ji Yimu had no doubt about this. After all, when it came to Zhou Mengyao's love, as long as Ji Ruikun opened his mouth, there was nothing he couldn't ask.

"So, assuming that they came here for this, Master, think about it in this direction. Do you think there is anything strange about it?"

You really can't blame them for making such an assumption. This is their biggest secret right now. Once it comes to light, before they have strong enough capabilities, they will not be able to protect anything and will only put everyone they care about in danger.

"For example, have you ever inquired about this matter in disguise?"

“I never paid attention to that.”

Perhaps he trusted them too much before and never had any guard against them.

"Grandpa, have you told my mom about the bracelet?"

Ji Yimu asked seriously.

"no,"

"Why don't you think about it carefully? Maybe you said it unintentionally?"

This is very important. If it is said, it means that the Ji family will definitely know about it, and then Yan Yue and Xiaotuanzi will be in danger.

Ji Yimu's eyes were gloomy.

"You little brat, I said I definitely didn't say that."

Zhou You hit Ji Yimu's head hard.

With a cry of "ah", Ji Yimu really didn't expect that the old man would take action at such a serious moment, and he didn't expect that the force would be so strong.

"Master, do you have any misunderstanding about your current strength?"

Yan Yue pulled Ji Yimu's head and looked at him.

They are all cultivators, and their body functions are much higher than those of ordinary people, yet they act without restraint.

"Humph, he is a cultivator himself, he can't even bear this little pain."

After the fight, Zhou You regretted it. He forgot about his own situation for a moment and didn't feel the full force.

But he was very unhappy when he saw his little disciple blaming himself in order to protect him.

"That hurts too."

Yan Yue blew towards the red area with a look of heartache.

Originally Ji Yimu was enjoying his boyfriend's love, but when the heat passed over his head and touched his skin, his body trembled so much that he changed his position unconsciously.

"Master, please continue."

Seeing that the topic was going off topic, Yan Yue immediately got back to the point.

"Humph, I've seen what kind of person your mother is. She can't keep anything I give her, so I didn't want to hand over the Zhou family to her from the beginning. Even though I almost lost my life, I didn't give her the bracelet."

Zhou You saw Zhou Mengyao very clearly. He only doted on her because of the father-daughter relationship, but he did not lose his judgment because of this relationship. The Zhou family must not be handed over to him.

"So you have been wanting to harm me since you were a child?"

Ji Yimu thought about the education he had received since childhood, and felt sad.

Other people’s childhoods had playgrounds, but his childhood only had medicinal herbs.

"No,"

"What's wrong?"

Yan Yue and Zhou You both looked at Ji Yimu who was in deep thought.

Ji Yimu's mind was racing, constructing possibilities and trends one after another in his brain.

"According to our previous assumption, they came here just for the legend. Then, my grandfather took me out of the Ji family so easily. There must be other reasons behind this."

The more Ji Yimu thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was correct.

"It was indeed very easy to take you to their side. They even agreed when I just expressed the idea. I thought they did it out of friendship as our in-laws and didn't want me to have a miserable old age. Now that I know they were behind it, that friendship is ridiculous. So they must have had a purpose in sending you here."

Zhou You now thinks that he has been plotted against without realizing it.

"I guess they took advantage of my mom's inability to get what they wanted, so they wanted to use me and start with me."

If it was for the Zhou family's things, then Ji Yimu felt that he could probably restore some of the events of these years, and he thought this was a very reasonable assumption.

"So you didn't tell them about the bracelet?"

Facing Zhou You's suspicious gaze, Ji Yimu asked, "Am I such an unreliable person?"

"Of course not, this is my baby."

Ji Yimu grabbed Yan Yue's hand with the bracelet and waved it in front of Zhou You.

This is his treasure, he cherishes it very much.

"You little brat, you know that my little disciple is your treasure."

Let's talk business.

As they were talking, I started to give him some dog food.

"Master..."

Yan Yue was embarrassed and blushed.

How come everything can be linked to myself?

"So now only a few of us know the secret of the bracelet. If this is the case, then they will at most be suspicious and will not do anything extreme," xl

If possible, he really didn't want this to happen. "Of course, if not, that would be even better. At least you can stay together while you grow up."

Nothing is more important than their safety.

This is the most important thing for traveling now.

"Grandpa, we know."

All they can do now is to develop slowly and work hard to become stronger.

"Then we have to work harder to cultivate. Right now, only four of us have spiritual roots."

Yan Yue sighed,

"I don't know when Master and the others will be able to grow spiritual roots. At least they can protect themselves when we are not at home."

Now Yan Yue is more worried about their safety once those secrets are uncovered.

"After we return from City N this time, we will try the improved prescription to see if we can speed up the process."

Ji Yimu also thought of this.

"But you don't have to worry about grandpa and the others' safety for now. Now we have Grandpa Yuan, so there's no need to worry too much about their safety."

"Yes, how could I have forgotten him? Even if he retreated, he would still have many people protecting him. Now everyone in the Biluo Villa has probably been investigated. Even if someone has some ideas, they dare not do anything rash."

Zhou You thought of Yuan Mingyang,

"Xiaoyan, do you think there is a rift between your Grandpa Yuan and your Grandma..."

Although Zhou You felt that it was a bit dirty to think this way, if he could be tied to Yuan Mingyang, it would indeed be the best solution at the moment.

Of course, what was more important was that he discovered that Chen Lan did not seem to be without feelings for Yuan Mingyang.

"Xiaoyan, do you object?"

"How could that be? I fully support my grandmother's idea. She has worked so hard for so many years, and I definitely hope that she will be happy in her future life."

Yan Yue never thought of stopping it. He just wanted one more person to love Chen Lan.

"So you agree with them being together?"

"Whether I agree or not is not important. What's important is whether my grandma is willing. Besides, as a younger generation, how can I interfere in the feelings of my elders? Of course, it depends on whether Grandpa Yuan is worth it. If it's not worth it and it's not good for my grandma, I don't mind being a bad person."

Yan Yue could sense Yuan Mingyang's feelings for Chen Lan, and he could also see that Chen Lan also had feelings for him, otherwise he wouldn't always create opportunities for the two of them to be alone together.

"Be a bad guy? How can you be a bad guy? With your skinny arms and legs? A guard next to him is enough to make you drink a bottle of wine."

Zhou You looked at this soft and tender little apprentice.

He believed that his grandson had some tricks, but this little disciple was just a simple-minded person.

Zhou You joked around and wanted to learn how to take revenge.

"Why am I so skinny? Even if there are twice as many people around Master Yuan, I can still beat them all."

He is no longer an ordinary person, so who is he looking down on?

"Besides, I can do nothing but I still have my brother Mu.

In fact, there is no need to be a bad guy. It is obvious that Grandpa Yuan's body is not in good condition. It won't take much time if we don't use special means.

If my grandma really likes it, it's not impossible to keep it. After all, grandma will definitely live longer than Grandpa Yuan, and then she can pick out 17 or 18 young men for her. We can afford to waste this little time."

"Ahem,"

Zhou You seemed to be frightened.

Yan Yue felt that Yuan Mingyang was not worthy of his grandmother.

With this body, I am not worthy of it.

"Besides, Grandpa Yuan hasn't chased my grandma yet. They are just in the ambiguous stage at best. If it makes my grandma unhappy, the worst that can happen is that I will break them up. I'm not a moral person."

Yan Yue didn't say anything. After all, everything was based on Chen Lan's mood.

Anything that would make her sad should not exist.

"Actually, your Grandpa Yuan is quite good. Although he is older now, he is still a handsome old man and a responsible person. Although he has retired now, it is still easy for him to protect your grandma. Overall, he is a very good subordinate."

Zhou You tried hard to make up for it, he did his best.

My hands were sweating as I held the phone.

"Master, you said he's too old. No matter how handsome he is, he's still an old man. What's the use? As long as my grandma is willing, I can find him someone younger and better."

This alone is very disappointing. Age is a hard injury and it will affect future happiness.

"He has the ability. The key is that everyone can see it. He loves your grandmother, and your grandmother loves him the same way. This is very important."

Zhou You: Mr. Yuan, I have helped you in all the ways I can. For the rest, you should work hard on your own.

"Master, why do I find that you always speak for others?"

Yan Yue finally discovered that Zhou You had been speaking for Yuan Mingyang.

"There's nothing I can do."

Zhou You took out his cell phone and answered the call openly.

"Are you relieved now? I told you Xiaoyan wouldn't object."

He helped to say what he needed to say, but the rest was none of his business.

As for the bold remarks made by his young apprentice, he did not hear them and he did not care.

“…”

This operation really caught people off guard.

There is the embarrassment of being caught secretly talking about something behind the elders' backs.

The key point is why didn't his master remind him?

Yan Yue tried hard to recall what he had said. It seemed like he had said a lot, but none of it felt good.

"Xiaoyan, I will definitely treat your grandma well. I have been exercising all year round and will try my best to cooperate with your treatment. I will definitely be able to accompany your grandma for a long time and will never give you the opportunity to find a gigolo for your grandma."

Every word Yuan Mingyang said sounded like an explanation, but each word came out through gritted teeth.
