Chapter 459 The Canaan Empire's reshuffling ends, departure.
Feng Lin signed his name in the approval section of a document, looked up, lowered his eyes, and coldly warned: "I have no interest in interfering in other people's relationships."
Although Feng Haoran has a good relationship with his uncle, he is still quite timid when his uncle is serious.
He awkwardly gave an "oh" and didn't dare to make any more jokes.
In fact, the family had already anticipated this outcome, so they started preparing well in advance.
"Uncle, now that this matter is over, Grandpa and Grandma want you to take some time to go back home."
Feng Lin: What?
Feng Haoran chuckled, "A blind date, huh? This girl is amazing, the female CEO of a listed company, young, beautiful, and elegant, only 27 years old."
Feng Lin's expression turned cold, and he said impatiently, "Busy, I'm not going!"
"No, Uncle, Grandpa and Grandma have already made arrangements with them. Once your status here is lifted, they'll let you two have a meal together."
"It's been pushed aside."
Feng Haoran tried his best to show a helpless expression to cover up the schadenfreude in his heart. "I can't refuse. That girl's grandfather was my grandfather's comrade-in-arms. It is said that they were very close back then."
Feng Lin frowned, looking intently at Feng Haoran, whose lips were tightly pressed together, and then said, "Then you go."
Feng Haoran: "!!"
"What am I supposed to do? That's what Grandpa and Grandma gave you..."
Feng Lin interrupted him, "I'll talk to your parents. You're about the same age, so I'll approve your leave tomorrow."
Before Feng Haoran could retort, Feng Lin had already dialed the home video call and walked to the window.
Feng Haoran was driven to madness on the spot!
He glanced at Feng Lin's back as he turned away, then turned around and strode away with incredible speed.
Let's get out of here!
Go on a mission now!
He's busy too!
Extremely busy!
He is dedicated to his job!
I can't take a single day off!
After finishing his call and explaining his situation, Feng Lin turned around and stared blankly at the empty doorway.

After returning, Si Yuting obtained a royal declaration bearing the official seal from Si Chen.
The Canaanite Empire has now dissolved its council of elders, simplifying the process considerably and freeing it from the constraints imposed by the Sages and some old fogies.
Si Yuting scanned both agreements into electronic files, uploaded them to the gene bank, and announced them nationwide. People in the other two countries could also see the agreement in the gene bank that the Canaan Empire would permanently abandon those with high fertility rates.
"Once this news is released, it will definitely affect the interests of many people. I wonder who will be the first to jump out," Si Chen sighed.
The Empress showed no concern whatsoever; instead, she rubbed her hands together with anticipation. "That's perfect! Let's clean them up together to prevent them from encouraging unhealthy practices."
Si Chen could already foresee how busy he would be.
Although the account ban was lifted for Mr. Yuan last time, which helped to steer public opinion in a positive direction, there are still some people who have objections, especially the upper-class nobles who are willing to profit from it. However, they have been intimidated by Yu Ting's recent ruthless methods, and Yu Ting's meticulous approach has made it impossible for them to find any major mistakes to attack him, so they can only remain silent.
Knowing that he intends to monopolize high-fertility individuals is one thing; actually doing so is quite another.
After Si Xian's operation failed, they thought that since General Si had monopolized the high-fertility population, the Canaan Empire would also monopolize the high-fertility population. They thought that they might gain more after the princess gave birth to the child. However, they did not expect that they would voluntarily give up the rights and benefits brought by the interstellar protection order.
How can I sit still like this?
Therefore, on the thirty-fifth day after Qu Tong left, the noble families, led by the Ouyang family, put pressure on the royal family and the military to oppose Si Yuting's arbitrary actions.
However, forty days after Qu Tong left, the Ministry of Communications underwent a major reshuffle, and many members of the Ouyang family were imprisoned, effectively ending their political careers and leaving them with no chance of a comeback.
With such a living example, and considering Si Yuting's recent killing spree without needing to resort to violence, the others who had initially agreed changed their tune and retreated home like quails.
The other spectators sighed in dismay, while only the Fei family and the First Legion, who stood on Qu Tong's side, were delighted.
Forty-two days after Qu Tong left, he handed over the follow-up matters to the Crown Prince, and Si Yuting packed his bags and set off with his team to negotiate with two other countries.
The Emperor, Empress, and Crown Prince were all too busy with their own affairs to attend to and did not go to see them off.
Upon arriving at the southern border, Xu An, who had just been promoted, was in charge of the routine inspection.
After a thorough examination, the two did not exchange any further words.
Only after the aircraft took off did Si Yuting receive a message from Xu An, which was earnest in its words:
[General, if your sister doesn't want to come back, let her stay wherever she likes.]
Si Yuting raised an eyebrow as he looked at the message.
This trip was a secret one, and it was not announced to the public except to necessary people who knew about it, which is why Xu An thought he was going to find Ali.
Ali will come back with me.
Si Yuting typed these words in the chat box and was about to send them when he remembered that Xu An was Ali's second closest person after Elder Yuan, and that he was speaking from the perspective of an older brother. He thought that his reply might be ambiguous and could make the other party mistakenly think that he would force Ali.
Deleted it and replaced it with a single "good".
Putting away his personal terminal, Si Yuting habitually rubbed the ring on his finger, then turned to look out the window, his gaze softening.
In the past, he would have worried, like Xu An, that Ali wouldn't want to come back with him.
It is Ali and her child who are hurt. No matter what, Si Xian is a member of the Si family, that is an indisputable fact. It is understandable that Ali resents him, hates him, and does not want to come back.
But Ah Li was too good, so good that he felt ashamed.
He longed to tell her that she didn't have to be so good to him, that she could be willful and throw tantrums at him without restraint.
But Ali didn't. Ali was always so good to him, no matter what.
When he woke up that day, he happened to see that unfamiliar email, and a single glance at it made his blood boil.
The letter was very long, and he read it three times.
Everything is fine, don't worry.
husband.
Old Yuan told me everything you did, that's great!
But I still hope you don't feel so much pressure, and don't pay attention to those comments online that question our relationship.
You might have been a little angry with Si Xian at the time, but you calmed down and figured it out.
What did you do wrong?
You've always done a great job.
I told you I didn't want to go to the gene bank, I didn't want to be studied, and you fought for me against all the opposing opinions, without even trying to persuade me to compromise a little bit.
I told you I didn't want to reveal my pregnancy, so you hid it from everyone and went to great lengths to buy me pregnancy testing equipment, spending time modifying and learning how to use it yourself.
Warm your feet if they're cold, massage your back if it hurts, dress you and do your laundry if you're feeling lazy, tidy up your room...
How can this not be love? How can this not be protection?
You can't negate all your efforts just because you didn't show up in time during one or two dangerous situations.
