Chapter 41 Negotiation

"Impossible, how could the Wei family have such a thing?" Zhao Huang widened his eyes, a flash of disbelief passed through his eyes, and then he returned to normal.

"So what?"

The man had already seen the shock that the head of the Zhao family felt at that moment. A Lansong silently calculated in his heart. From Zhao Huang's reaction, he was sure that the head of the Zhao family knew nothing about this matter.

"Master Zhao." A Lansong bowed slightly, his tone was just the right amount of respectful, yet calm and confident. "I think we might be able to come up with a mutually beneficial deal." After saying that, he raised his eyes and met Zhao Huang's gaze steadily, neither humble nor arrogant, his eyes revealing a power that should not be underestimated.

It was also the first time that Zhao Huang felt a slight pressure from a junior. He was also secretly shocked. He looked at Alan Song with admiration and asked in a deep voice: "Tell me about it."

"It's like this. I have learned some things about the Mother Stone, including its origin, the origin of its spiritual power, and." Aransong paused, "the method of spiritual energy recovery."

After hearing about the "method of spiritual energy recovery", Zhao Huang could no longer control himself and stared at Alan Song with his eyes wide open.

The method of spiritual energy revival is something passed down by the ancestors of the four major families and has long been lost. Moreover, now that the outside world insists on Marxism-Leninism and scientific materialism, how come the young man from the Wu family even knows this?

Zhao Huang tried hard to suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart. A hint of vigilance flashed across his eyes, and he unconsciously lowered his voice and asked, "What do you want?"

"Cancel the engagement." Aramis' tone was calm, yet it revealed an unquestionable firmness.

"Impossible!" Zhao Huang blurted out, his voice rising unconsciously.

What a joke, this cause and effect was brought about with great difficulty by me. The Wu family's bloodline is the top combat power, and the Zhao and Wu families must be tied together tightly.

A Lansong had obviously anticipated Zhao Huang's rejection, and he continued calmly, "In that case, I hope that Patriarch Zhao will allow Zhao Nianchen and I to go to the outside world together."

Zhao Huang frowned upon hearing this and fell into deep thought. After a moment, he slowly said, "This... is something you can consider."

Although the rules of each family are strict, and the ancestral teachings clearly stipulate that except for "seeds", no one else can go to the outside world. But the situation of this young Wu family member is special. Although he is no longer a "seed" but a member of the Zhao family, it is acceptable for him to sneak out once or twice occasionally as long as he is not noticed by others.

Zhao Huang thought about it secretly and felt that there was room for maneuver, so he said, "Boy, I won't beat around the bush with you. My nod alone is not enough for this matter. Wu Zhenyuan must also agree. The important thing is that the number of times you can go out will also be strictly limited. Can you accept that?"

When Alansong heard this, his brows instantly twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川", his thin lips were tightly pursed, and a hint of displeasure flashed across his face.

Restricted? That wouldn't do. He couldn't just be in a long-distance relationship with Liang Pin, counting the days and looking forward to their brief reunion.

Moreover, if this engagement cannot be cancelled, how can she live with Liang Pin while being married? Although it is only an engagement in name only, it will desecrate her pure love for Liang Pin, which is absolutely intolerable.

I cannot tolerate this, absolutely not! I must be clean. Only the purest me is qualified to crawl at his feet, monopolize his gaze, and lock him tightly by my side for eternity.

My mind can't help but recall the sunny smile on Liang Pin's face when he was holding a lollipop in his mouth when we first met.

Thinking of this, Alan Song raised his head, secretly hiding the dark restlessness in his heart, looking straight at Zhao Huang, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "In this case, Master Zhao, don't you want to discuss cooperation with me? If what Master Zhao said is true, I think this cooperation may not be able to achieve the expected results, so it is better to call it quits." After saying that, he prepared to walk out.

Zhao Huang tried to persuade him to stay, "Young man, please stay. It's not that we don't want to. This is the rule left by our ancestors. People from the inside are not allowed to go to the outside world. We can't break this rule. There are too many complications here. Why don't I go back with you tomorrow and discuss this matter with your father Zhenyuan? The three of us can brainstorm and find a proper solution. How about it?"

As he was about to leave, Alan Songmai paused, looked out the window with a serious look, and said calmly, "Okay."

He knew in his heart that what Patriarch Zhao said was true. He had not yet understood the ins and outs behind this mysterious family rule, and there were still many things he needed to know. Being able to make progress to this point in the negotiations with Patriarch Zhao was already what he expected.

Seeing that Alan was relieved, Zhao Huang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Okay, you should rest well tonight and recharge your energy. Tomorrow morning, I will go back with you.

We must get the information that this guy has. Maybe this time, we will be able to find out what the Wei family is doing in the outside world.

The next morning, when it was just beginning to get light, Zhao Huang took A Lansong and Zhao Nianchen and set off for the Wu family.

Zhao Nianchen sat in the car, looking out the window boredly, the bustling crowds coming and going like a tide. He couldn't help but feel a little strange, and whispered softly: "Strange, why are there so many more pedestrians on the street today than usual?"

Alan Song was very sensitive to what Zhao Nianchen said and asked in confusion, "Why, is there usually no one on the street?"

Zhao Nianchen shook his head, his expression puzzled: "Not really. It's just seven o'clock now. According to common sense, there shouldn't be so many people on the street at this time."

Zhao Huang subconsciously frowned and looked out the window after hearing this. He looked serious and said in a deep and powerful voice, "Nian Chen is right. Today's situation is really abnormal. When we get off the bus, we'll find someone to ask what's going on."

The Wu family and the Zhao family were not far apart. The car drove steadily on the road and stopped safely in front of the Wu family mansion in just twenty minutes.

Zhao Huang and Zhao Nianchen stepped out of the car first, waiting for Alan Song. As soon as Alan Song opened the car door and took one step, the crowd that was standing or walking around him suddenly gathered around him as if they had planned it. In the crowd, there were even many people holding up their cameras, aiming their lenses at Alan Song, and pressing the shutter button impatiently.

The sounds of cameras were intertwined and continuous, and the flash lights were flashing one after another, making people's eyes hurt.

Zhao Nianchen was so shocked by the sudden scene that his eyes widened. He quickly raised his hands to block the dazzling flash lights and shouted at Alan Song at the top of his voice: "Fuck, boss, are you a big star? These people look like they are coming for you!"

"Nonsense! Who are these young people who don't know the rules?" Zhao Huang was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and stomped his crutch on the ground, making a "dong dong" sound, which was full of anger.

The patriarch was furious, and his pressure was as great as a mountain. No ordinary person could withstand such momentum. The crowd that had been surrounding the place tightly, instantly scattered like birds and beasts.

Zhao Huang's face was gloomy, his eyes were like knives, and he glanced at the bodyguards beside him, and nodded slightly. The bodyguards understood what he meant, and quickly grabbed a few slow runners and held them tightly.

"Tell me, what's going on!" the bodyguard demanded.

The captured man turned pale with fear and replied tremblingly, "You... don't you know? I heard that the Zhao family has a new male concubine, who has a pretty face and a strong body.

Even the young master of the Zhao family, who was always a playboy and never touched a leaf among the flowers, was fascinated and stayed with her all the time. Today, the young master brought his concubine home, and everyone was very curious and wanted to take a look at what this beauty looked like. "

"Yes, yes, yes," someone nearby agreed, "The young master of the Zhao family would never stay with any of his lovers for too long before. He would always stay for one night and then leave. But this time was different. For the sake of this concubine, he stayed for two nights for the first time ever, and has been with her every day since then. I heard that the two of them are as close as one person and are very affectionate. Everyone wants to see what this concubine who can win the young master's heart looks like. Some people even want to take a photo and stick it on the bedside to pray that the couple is in harmony and love."

Upon hearing this, the bodyguard let them go and turned around to report the truth to the head of the Zhao family.

Zhao Huang frowned and glanced at A Lansong with complicated eyes. Without saying anything, he motioned for everyone to go into the Wu family mansion first.

Outsiders may not know, but Zhao Huang, as the head of the family, knows the reasons. This is called "plundering". Obviously, someone does not want this kid from the Wu family to go out to the outside world and let more people know him as a member of the Zhao family. In this way, he will be tainted with more karma of the Zhao family. This is not a good thing for the kid to go out to the outside world.

I'm afraid things are going to become more complicated. I hope everything goes as smoothly as I imagined and that no more troubles will occur.

Grand Hyatt, Star Villas

Wei Yijue was half-leaning gracefully, his whole body deeply sunk into the soft leather sofa. He was flipping through a magazine casually, his eyes were relaxed, a faint smile was on the corner of his mouth, and his whole body exuded a comfortable atmosphere.

The man spoke slowly, his voice soft and pleasant, and asked, "Did things go well?"

Wei Qing stood upright at the side, nodded slightly and said respectfully: "Everything went well, he didn't notice anything."

"I hope the Zhao family doesn't be ignorant of what's good for them." Wei Yijue pushed his gold-wire eye sockets with his slender fingers, with a faint smile on the corners of his mouth, and continued to flip through the magazine.

"By the way, is Liang Liang awake?"
