Ye Yuchen hugged her tighter: "I'm sorry, we will be married next month."
Yuan Xiaoyi cried enough in Ye Yuchen's arms, then slowly stood up and wiped her tears. Ye Yuchen was still smiling, but I could see that his eyes were full of vicissitudes and fatigue, but also hidden happiness.
Ye Yuchen stretched out his hand and said, "Thank you, brother."
"It's nothing, just a small favor." I also held his hand.
Ye Yuchen asked the nanny to take Yuan Xiaoyi back to her room to rest, while Ye Yuchen and I sat in the living room and chatted. Tiekuai told Ye Yuchen about Beiyuan. Ye Yuchen was surprised and said that he had never expected that he could dominate Beiyuan so quickly. Like their Ye family, it took more than ten years of hard work to become a relatively important force in Xinxiang, and they were still restraining each other with another force.
"But it's all right now." I said, "Your Ye family has also unified Xinxiang."
"Alas, the price paid was too high. And until now, the remnants have not been completely cleared out."
"Take your time."
In this way, I lived in the Ye family, and I lived a life in a paradise. I would go up the mountain to worship Buddha and run when I had nothing to do. Tiekuai exercised every day, but I couldn't keep up with his training intensity, and I felt frustrated when I was with him, so I liked to act alone. Generally, I would run to the top of the mountain, run around the Buddha, and then run down the mountain path.
One morning, I suddenly had the urge to climb over the mountain to see what was on the other side. A spring ran across the ravine, and I ran down along the spring. Spring had arrived, and flowers were blooming everywhere, red and purple, very beautiful. I ran happily, sweating profusely, and didn't feel tired at all. As I ran, I suddenly found a huge valley in front of me. The valley was full of flowers, but when I looked closely, it was creepy!
Among the clusters of flowers, there were actually tombstones standing one after another. At a glance, there were actually hundreds of them!
This is actually a cemetery!
Perhaps it is attracted by the colorful flowers, or perhaps it is attracted by the perfect sunshine.
I don't know why, but I walked over there as if possessed.
It didn't take long for me to arrive at the front of the cemetery. From the time point of view, I found that many of the tombstones were new, from last year to this year, but these tombstones accounted for dozens of them.
"They are all brothers who sacrificed in the fight against the Qi family."
Suddenly, a voice came from behind me. I turned around and saw that it was Ye Yuchen.
"Oh, I didn't mean to..."
"It's okay." Ye Yuchen said, "This is not a secret forbidden area. The cemetery is openly set up here to serve as a warning to everyone. If you can have a normal life, don't go out to mix in society, because the price may be death."
I didn't speak.
Ye Yuchen walked forward, and I followed him. We passed by tombstones one after another, as if we had experienced many lives and deaths. Judging from the time on the tombstones, new dead people are buried here every year. The mortality rate in this industry is indeed higher than any other industry in the world.
"Actually, this wasn't the Ye family's cemetery at first." Ye Yuchen said as he walked, "It was the cemetery of a relatively old gang in Xinxiang City. That gang almost took over Xinxiang, but unfortunately the gang leader couldn't escape the punishment of the law in the end."
I nodded to show my understanding. No force can survive forever.
"Look, it's right here." Ye Yuchen pushed aside a bunch of grass, revealing a somewhat mottled tombstone.
The tomb of Zhou Ming, leader of the Evil Wolf Gang.
"He was once a legendary figure in the Xinxiang underworld." Ye Yuchen exhaled: "It's a pity that he was nothing more than a dustpan in the end."
I don't know why, but when I saw this tombstone, I felt a sense of respect in my heart. I didn't know Zhou Ming, nor did I know his story, but I couldn't help but bend down and bow deeply; then I picked a bunch of flowers from the side and gently placed them in front of Zhou Ming's tomb.
"I understand what you mean." I said, "It's better to quit the underworld as soon as possible."
