Pi Yuan stood on the ground looking at Chi Wei with a particularly guilty expression, while Chi Wei, sitting on the roof, waved his hand dismissively, completely unconcerned.
He knew there were consequences to fighting, but it didn't matter. He just wanted to have fun while fighting. Anyway, Tao Xiaolu didn't gain any advantage. If Chi Wei was half a pig's head, then Tao Xiaolu was a whole pig's head.
There was no way around it; Chi Wei was larger and stronger than the other divine beasts, and he was also a warmonger.
Tao Xiaolu glared angrily at Chi Wei, who was on good terms with Pi Yuan. He was both angry and frustrated. Pi Yuan had always liked being with Chi Wei since he was a child, and Chi Wei had always protected him. But he had never bullied Pi Yuan. He had even bullied and fought with Xuan Yu, that soft and cute kid, but he had never hurt Pi Yuan at all.
Moreover, he was very enthusiastic every time they met, but Pi Yuan was afraid of him and kept avoiding him. In fact, he was the one who met Pi Yuan first, and Chi Wei only met him later. Now he felt like an outsider, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Murong Xue stood at the door and witnessed everything that happened. She blinked and saw it for sure. Chi Wei and Tao Xiaolu were such young children. The front yard was paved with bricks and stones, yet each of them had a dent from a fist!
Bai Hao then simply grabbed one of them with each hand and tossed them onto the roof in two parabolic arcs. After giving them a warning, he casually clapped his hands and went back inside.
Xuan Yu and Teng Xue moved to Pi Yuan's side, raised their hands to shield their eyes from the sunlight as they looked at the roof. Chi Wei simply lay down to bask in the warm sun, while Tao Xiaolu hugged her knees and curled up in a ball, muttering to herself, feeling particularly sad.
"Um, is this the new kid?" Murong Xue asked Qin Nan hesitantly. Qin Nan nodded, walked over, patted her on the shoulder, and led her into the house. Xuan Yu saw this and also pulled Teng Xue and Pi Yuan into the house.
On the rooftop, Chi Wei and Tao Xiaolu stared at each other, then simultaneously turned their heads away, ignoring each other.
Murong Xue sat on the sofa, clutching her chest, slowly accepting what she had seen today. She knew this family was no ordinary people, but seeing them in person still amazed her. She wasn't afraid of them; on the contrary, she was quite interested.
After a short while, she recovered and started asking Xuan Yu and Teng Xue all sorts of questions. She also asked if they were interested in visiting a clothing and jewelry exhibition in the city that weekend.
Xuan Yu wasn't interested, but Teng Xue really wanted to go. Xuan Yu had no choice but to agree to go with her. Murong Xue told them that she would pick them up on the weekend, which was also because Bai Hao had agreed, so they had a pleasant conversation.
He Yan, who had been sitting silently in the corner of the sofa, suddenly looked up at Bai Hao: "I want to have a serious talk with him and get things cleared up."
Bai Hao smiled: [Explain yourself? Can you even explain things between you two?]
He Yan: [It's hard to explain, but there has to be a resolution eventually.]
Bai Hao: [Are you planning to go back?]
He Yan: [Should I stay?]
Bai Hao: [Are you sure you want to leave him alone?]
He Yan remained silent for a long time: "He was fine even when I wasn't around."
Bai Hao: [You can be this cruel?]
He Yan: [There's a saying that's quite true: a short, sharp pain is better than a long, drawn-out one.]
Bai Hao: [He will die in less than a hundred years, but you have a very long life ahead of you. Will you be able to survive it?]
He Yan's eyes were downcast, and he seemed somewhat listless: "I truly admire your clan. To be able to live so smugly in this world. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have come here in the first place. Without a beginning, there would be no end."
Bai Hao: [I can make you forget everything here, how about it? Want to forget?]
He Yan remained silent for a long time after hearing this, while Bai Hao shook his head and sighed slightly.
Bai Hao: [Do you think Wu Yufei doesn't know that Wu Yulin likes you?]
He Yan looked up at Bai Hao in surprise: "How could this be?"
Bai Hao: [You can't see Wu Yulin's feelings for you because you've never thought about it much. Wu Yulin doesn't know that Wu Yufei knows because he thinks he's hiding it well. But those involved are often blinded, while bystanders see clearly. That bystander is Wu Yufei.]
He Yan: [But, I...]
Bai Hao: [Why do you think Wu Yufei didn't ask you to take back your paintings before she died, but instead stayed by Wu Yulin's side to take care of him for the rest of his life? Wu Yufei knew your identity, didn't she? This was the most selfish thing she did as Wu Yulin's sister, using your promise to keep you by Wu Yulin's side for her brother's sake.]
He Yan stood there stunned for a long time, then stood up somewhat absentmindedly: "Let's go."
Bai Hao watched He Yan walk out the door looking dejected, then turned and said, "Before I come back, those two upstairs are not allowed to come down. Tell them that if they fight again, they'd better go back to where they came from!"
After saying that, he looked at Murong Xue and said, "I'll borrow the car for a bit. You can stay here. You don't have anything else to do today."
Murong Xue was slightly taken aback, then immediately threw the car keys over, and was then happily pulled by Teng Xue to the tailor shop in the backyard.
Bai Hao took the key and tossed it to Qin Nan, who caught it and followed him. Before leaving, she glanced at the roof with some unease. Pi Yuan and Xuan Yu reassured Qin Nan that everything would be alright.
Qin Nan sat in the driver's seat, Bai Hao naturally sat in the passenger seat, and He Yan sat in the back seat quietly, or rather, seemed very silent.
Following the address given by Bai Hao, it took less than an hour to drive there. To Qin Nan's surprise, it was a very secluded courtyard.
This place is considered the suburbs. It's like a village, but the houses are far apart. Each house has a large courtyard, some are villas and some are ordinary courtyards. It looks very mixed. There are fields and vegetable sheds between each house.
They drove all the way to the end, where there was an ordinary two-story building surrounding a courtyard with an iron gate. Qin Nan parked the car in front of the gate, and Bai Hao opened the door and got out first. Qin Nan glanced at He Yan, who seemed a little dazed, and slowly opened the car door and got out. Qin Nan finally took the keys and got out of the car.
He Yan took out his key and unlocked the door. There was no sound inside the house, so it seemed that no one was home.
Qin Nan walked at the back and followed the two into the courtyard. The courtyard was very tidy and there was no clutter. There was a slope in front of the gate, but instead of steps, there was a height.
He Yan opened the door, and a sound came from inside the house, which seemed to be the sound of wheels rolling. As soon as Qin Nan entered, she saw a fair-skinned boy with a calm expression in front of her. He was sitting in a wheelchair with a thick blanket covering his legs.
He showed delight the moment he saw He Yan, but immediately regained his composure upon seeing the stranger.
"Ayan, you're back." Wu Yulin smiled slightly, which was very warm, but it couldn't hide the sickly look on his face. However, Qin Nan couldn't explain why, but he always felt that this sickly boy in front of him was unfathomable.
He Yan nodded to him, then walked up to Wu Yulin and helped him cover his legs with the blanket that had come off a little while he was in a hurry to come out. Then he looked at Wu Yulin with a complicated expression.
Wu Yulin was a little confused. He blinked and looked at He Yan. He Yan raised his hand and rubbed his head. Then he pushed him from behind to the heater in the living room. He Yan sat on the sofa next to him, and Bai Hao led Qin Nan to sit down opposite him.
Wu Yulin suddenly had a bad feeling. He suddenly felt that He Yan was very far away from him. He couldn't help but reach out to grab He Yan's hand. He Yan didn't move, didn't refuse, but also seemed indifferent.
