Black Hawk struggled to get up from the ground, knelt on one knee in front of Chu Xixuan, and pleaded: "Master, Black Hawk is useless, please punish me!"
Chu Xixuan was in a good mood and said, "If you are useful, how can I give my necklace away?" After that, he got into the car and left, leaving Black Hawk alone in a disheveled state.
Lan Ziye, who got the "Mermaid Tears" necklace, happily returned to the Lan family.
As soon as he stepped into the Lan family's gate, Lan Ziye saw a large group of people walking towards him. Leading the group was the white-haired Lan Yan. Behind Lan Yan were his nine sons, not one less. Behind those sons were a large group of grandsons, including Lan Yanfeng.
Lan Ziye's face instantly turned black, and he complained to Xiaobai in his arms, "Lan Yanfeng's mouth is really big!" After a pause, he emphasized angrily, "It's even bigger than Third Brother's mouth. I really misjudged him!" (*｀へ′*)
"The eldest master is also worried about the safety of the master!" Xiaobai timidly defended Lan Yanfeng.
"Are you worried about me?" Lan Ziye pouted, dissatisfied. "Are you worried that I'll bring trouble to the Lan family? I wonder if I'll have to kneel in the ancestral hall again!"
"This... this is normal! Didn't you say that you have a responsibility to the Lan family?" Xiaobai said again.
Lan Ziye's face suddenly darkened: "Are you my Shikigami or Lan Yanfeng's Shikigami?"
"Xiaobai only knows that Lan Yanfeng is the best to Xiaobai and his master in this era!" Xiaobai muttered.
Lan Ziye: ...Alright! Her Shikigami is just so easily bribed! (┯_┯)
"Xiao Yeye, are you okay? Did the kid from the Chu family bully you?" What Lan Ziye didn't expect was that Lan Yan walked up to her and said something like this.
Lan Ziye was stunned for a moment. Shouldn't he blame her for being ignorant and getting into trouble? At the very least, he should have her locked up in the ancestral hall for a few days and starved her! (?o?)
"Xiaoye, don't be so willful in the future. If you like something, just tell your uncles and aunts. We can find a way. Chu Xixuan is not someone you can easily mess with. What if you can't defeat him?" Lan Jia agreed. He wanted to say "Dad and uncles", but worried that Lan Ziye wouldn't accept it and would be unhappy, so he changed the words to "uncles and aunts".
"Yes! Yan Feng came back and said that you and Chu Xixuan had a fight, and we were all scared! Look, all the members of the Lan family are here. If you don't come back, we plan to go to the Chu family and take your person away!" Lan Yi said.
Lan Ziye was stunned for a moment, and after a long while he asked dully, "You...why are you so nice to me?"
"Because you are the hope of our Lan family. Your purple eyes are the hope of our Lan family! We descendants can die, but you can't!" Lan Yan said seriously, "Tomorrow is the day to worship our ancestors. I will take you to the Lan family ancestral hall and tell you everything about our Lan family's past!"
Lan Ziye looked at Lan Yan thoughtfully. Would he talk about her purple eyes? She also wanted to know what happened to the Lan family after she disappeared!
"Okay!" Lan Ziye responded very seriously.
Afterwards, Lan Ziye briefly explained the bet between her and Chu Xixuan.
Although the Lan family found it unbelievable, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. After all, although Chu Xixuan was scary, he was not a bad person, and it was even more impossible for him to retaliate against the Lan family just because he couldn't afford to lose.
