"Yes, for most men, giving up everything for a woman is undoubtedly stupid."
Wen Wan started the car: "But Xiao Yuecheng is different, he is more loyal and righteous."
"Will he go?" Xiao Chen asked uncertainly.
"I don't know about that. It's been fifteen years. A lot has changed, and people's hearts have changed too."
Wen Wan shook her head gently and said, "But one thing is certain, that is Xiao Wanli will do anything to achieve his goal, but his two sons do not follow him in any way."
Xiao Chen nodded thoughtfully. The outcome of this matter would depend on tomorrow.
If Xiao Yuecheng gave up everything, then it would be time to find Xiao Wanli and settle the score.
"By the way, do you know about your grandma's condition?" Wen Wan asked.
"My grandma?" Xiao Chen was stunned. He shook his head and said, "I don't know. Is she still alive?"
"Your grandmother is alive and well. Her and Xiao Wanli's situation was a bit complicated back then." Wen Wan said seriously, "Besides, she was your grandfather's daughter-in-law."
"But that bastard Xiao Wanli went to Yanjing and married someone in order to curry favor with the rich and powerful."
"Then how did my dad get to him?" Xiao Chen frowned slightly.
"The man Xiao Wanli was married to passed away. He promised your father that as long as your father came to him, he and your grandmother would reconcile."
Wen Wan sighed: "Your father saw that your grandmother had been alone and helpless for many years and it was difficult, so he agreed to it."
"So that's how it is." Xiao Chen clenched his fists, which made his hatred for Xiao Wanli even deeper.
"Then where is my grandma now?" Xiao Chen turned his head and asked.
"The old lady's family is from the northwest, and she has lived there all these years." Wen Wan said, "Because of Xiao Wanli, she once swore that unless Xiao Wanli died, she would never set foot inside the Great Wall for the rest of her life."
"What a stubborn old lady." Xiao Chen murmured.
"After everything is settled, I have to take my parents and go visit her outside the customs."
"That's a must. Your mother is the old lady's chosen daughter-in-law. Although she didn't come to your father's wedding, she spread the word from thousands of miles away."
"Anyone who dares to embarrass her daughter-in-law is against the Liang family in the northwest. So over the years, Xiao Wanli has not dared to embarrass your mother except for being afraid of your grandfather's power."
"There's a deeper reason. It's because I'm afraid of the power of your grandmother's family."
"Northwest Liang Family, Martyrs' Shrine?" Xiao Chen was shocked again. The Liang family, a loyal and brave family during the war, actually had this kind of relationship with him?
"Yes, your great uncle is also a remarkable person. Let's go to the northwest if we have the chance."
"I will definitely go." Xiao Chen nodded.
Qilin Lake, a small cottage in the maple forest in the center of the lake.
The sky is full of sunset glow again.
Mu Yi has been sitting in the small pavilion.
The autumn breeze blows on my face, the sky is full of rosy clouds, and I look at the time. It is almost sunset.
If she didn't see that person at sunset, then there was no need for her to wait any longer.
If she hadn't waited for him, she decided to never leave Zhongnan Mountain for the rest of her life.
Seeing that only a little afterglow of the setting sun remained, Mu Yi sighed softly.
It seems that she still overestimated her position in that person's heart.
She smiled self-deprecatingly and was about to get up and leave.
In the setting sun, the Qilin Lake is dotted with blue waves and a small boat is floating on the lake.
A familiar figure stood at the bow of the boat.
Even though they were far away and even though she hadn't seen him for fifteen years, she recognized the man at first sight.
At the same time, that person was also looking over here nervously.
Their eyes met, and it seemed as if they could see the entire spring and autumn at a glance, even though the lake was thousands of feet away.
Mu Yi smiled. She gently took out a Qiang flute, put it to her lips, and blew it softly.
The sound of the Qiang flute is long and melodious, there are endless songs to sing, and it is impossible to express the vicissitudes of life.
In a villa, Xiao Wanli spread out the rice paper, ground the ink, made his preparations, and began to write.
For some reason, he seemed a little upset today.
He held the pen, was stunned for a long time, then swung his brush and wrote the four big words "Pointing to the Mountains and Rivers".
Same pen, same paper, same ink.
But the words I wrote this time felt a world away from the last time.
His hand trembled and a drop of ink fell on the paper, instantly ruining the calligraphy.
"Xiao Qi." Xiao Wanli was extremely annoyed and threw the pen in his hand aside.
"Dad, I'm here." Xiao Qi, who had been guarding the door, walked in. He was as respectful as ever.
"Has anything happened in the company in recent days?" Xiao Wanli asked.
"Nothing happened, everything has been peaceful." Xiao Qi replied.
"Has the issue between the mother and son been resolved?" Xiao Wanli asked.
"It's solved. All the evidence has been destroyed. I recorded a video. Dad, would you like to take a look?" Xiao Qi said.
"No need, I trust you more in charge." Xiao Wanli waved his hand.
He didn't trust his own son very much, but he trusted Xiao Qi very much.
Sometimes he always sighed, wishing that Xiao Qi was his biological son.
That way he could safely hand over the Xiao family to him.
Xiao Yuecheng has made a good career in politics, but he is still a little worried about leaving the future of the Xiao family to him.
After all, this person is too sentimental. As a superior, the first thing he considers is his own interests.
But Xiao Yuecheng is not good enough. He still needs more practice in this area.
"Where is Xiao Yuecheng now?" Xiao Wanli began to organize the papers, intending to write another one.
"My second brother has been in the office. He has a meeting to attend recently and has been busy." Xiao Qi's eyes were still calm, without any ripples in his eyes.
Xiao Wanli nodded gently: "Keep an eye on him, he is close to that kid Xiao Chen."
"And he still holds a grudge against the incident that broke him and that girl up."
"Yes, I will look forward to my second brother. He will take over the Xiao family's future. Besides being loyal and righteous, he should be good in every other way." Xiao Qi smiled slightly.
These words touched Xiao Wanli's heart.
He put down the pen in his hand and sighed: "Xiao Qi, you are such a sensible child."
"Your second brother shoulders a heavy responsibility. He is indeed very capable, but he is too loyal and righteous."
"As a leader, one must first abandon all emotions and prioritize profit, but he hasn't understood this yet."
"Dad, don't worry too much." Xiao Qi said with a smile: "Second brother is still young. After a few more years of training, he will naturally understand this principle."
"He's already forty, and still young?" Xiao Wanli snorted, "I think he's just obsessed with that girl from the Mu family."
"He's just not satisfied with everything I've arranged for him, and he's always secretly angry with me. Otherwise, with his abilities, he would have already made great strides."
"Second brother is a little unaware of the blessings he has." Xiao Qi sighed.
To be honest, he envied Xiao Yuecheng.
