Whether a cultivator or an ordinary person, having more Qi of Merit will improve their luck. For example, they might find a gold ingot after falling down, a magic weapon secret manual after falling off a cliff, or someone who can help them when they are being chased. It's a perfect golden finger!
However, this was the first time Zhou Yuanyuan heard of this. Can this merit be taken advantage of?
"Master, that old man has a lot of merit energy, but unfortunately you and he are related by blood, and you didn't get any merit energy after saving him. Xiaoyu is different. Xiaoyu helped and gained a lot of merit energy! With it, Xiaoyu's cultivation speed will be several times faster..." Xiaoyu knew that Zhou Yuanyuan didn't understand, so she hurriedly explained her "little tricks".
Did General Zhou possess a lot of virtue? Zhou Yuanyuan thought about it and understood. Although General Zhou was a man of great bloodshed, that wasn't his true intention. A man like General Zhou's was committed to ensuring a stable and prosperous life for the impoverished people of the world. It wasn't surprising that such a General Zhou possessed a lot of virtue.
But why didn't she, who had put so much effort into saving someone, receive any merit? Instead, Xiaoyu took advantage of her? Zhou Yuanyuan felt a deep resentment.
Huh? No way! I don't want to be related to that old man, okay?
Zhou Yuanyuan lamented for a moment, then let the matter go. Even if there was no reward at all, she wouldn't stand by and watch someone like General Zhou die. At least Xiaoyu had gotten a small advantage. Xiaoyu was hers, and everything Xiaoyu got was almost hers, Zhou Yuanyuan!
After Zhou Yuanyuan calmed down, she finally had time to sit in the car and look around.
Xiao Zhu drove fast and steadily, and in just a few minutes, they arrived at Renmin Road. Two more turns later, they arrived at Zhao Qingshan's residence.
"Stop the car." Zhou Yuanyuan's eyes saw a familiar person, and most importantly, that person was being bullied.
Xiao Zhu's professionalism is excellent. After Zhou Yuanyuan called out "stop", he immediately parked the car steadily on the side of the road.
Wen Yulong stared at the expressionless Wen Ziqing, his heart filled with rage. What sin had he committed to give birth to such an evil child? He ran into his father on the street, but he acted as if he hadn't seen him, not even saying hello. Could it be that after being dismissed from his position, even his own son looked down on him?
Wen Ziqing was irritated. He had no idea what Wen Yulong had gotten himself into today. They had been disliking each other for years. Wen Yulong had always disliked Wen Ziqing getting close to him, and Wen Ziqing, knowing full well, would automatically avoid him whenever he saw him. Commander Wen was so busy with official duties that he hadn't spoken to him in years.
Unexpectedly, Wen Yulong took some wrong medicine today. As soon as he saw Wen Ziqing, he rushed up and blocked Wen Ziqing.
"Wen Ziqing, what's with this attitude of yours?" Wen Yulong had been under too much pressure these days, and he finally exploded after seeing his cold eldest son.
“······” Wen Ziqing glanced at Wen Yulong and said nothing.
Wen Ziqing wasn't in the mood for a father-son outburst with Wen Yulong. He was busy! Today was the little girl's birthday. He was here to buy some things and had to rush back to be with the little girl!
"What have you learned from your grandfather over the years? You're so rude! Or are you so used to being a wild kid in the countryside that you don't even know how to address your own father?" Wen Yulong was furious when he saw Wen Ziqing's cold expression. Just like his mother, when he doesn't want to talk to you, he just looks at you with his eyes slanted, without saying a word.
"What's wrong with the countryside? Did the country folk offend you, the commander-in-chief?" Zhou Yuanyuan heard Wen Yulong's "ginseng rooster" comment as she emerged from the car. Zhou Yuanyuan already had a bad impression of Wen Yulong, but when she heard him implying that Wen Ziqing had been corrupted by the Zhao family in the countryside, she couldn't hold back her anger any longer and couldn't help but retort.
"Who are you? It's none of your business to meddle in my and my son's family affairs." Wen Yulong said, his eyes blinded by anger. He looked at Zhou Yuanyuan with disdain and said, "I'm teaching my son a lesson. What little girl is so tactless as to join in the fun?"
"Hey~! Uncle, do you know that the person in front of you is your son? I thought Wen Ziqing was unwanted! The child was only four years old, and you threw Ziqing to his grandparents just to make your step-wife happy. Now that he has grown up, do you think of him to show off your fatherly power? Over the years, have you given Wen Ziqing a bite to eat or a piece of clothing to wear?" Zhou Yuanyuan said a few sarcastic remarks without any hesitation. Indeed, over the years, Wen Ziqing grew up with his grandparents, and Wen Yulong, as a father, did not call him all year round, let alone come back to see the child. Even the monthly living expenses, Wu Xiuli did not give him more than twice a year. As a father, Wen Yulong, apart from contributing a "seed", what else did he do for his son Wen Ziqing?
Zhou Yuanyuan hates people like Wen Yulong the most. He ignores Wen Ziqing, so he should just keep ignoring her. But he acts as one after another and puts on an air of an elder whenever he needs to show off his power. Who is he trying to scare?
"Yuanyuan, let's go home." Wen Ziqing pulled Zhou Yuanyuan's hand and prepared to evacuate the scene. They were talking a little loudly just now, and some people who were watching the fun had gathered around. Seeing the little girl acting like a cockfighting chicken to protect herself to Wen Yulong, Wen Ziqing felt warm in his heart, but he also didn't want his little girl to be watched by others.
"Well, let's go and ignore that idiot." Zhou Yuanyuan took Wen Ziqing's hand and got into the black Hongqi car parked on the side of the road.
Xiao Zhu stepped on the accelerator and the car sped away.
Brainless?!? Wen Yulong stood there for a moment, pondering what he meant, his face flushing red and white with anger. However, looking at the back of the Red Flag sedan, Wen Yulong was filled with confusion. The license plate number of the car the brat had just ridden in was clearly... General Zhou's. When had the brat met General Zhou? Who was this little girl to General Zhou? Or... was General Zhou sitting in the car, and had he seen everything he had just done?
Thinking of this possibility, Wen Yulong's face turned pale. He had returned to Kyoto this time hoping to find connections to reinstate his position. If General Zhou disliked him, what future would he have in the army?
At that moment, Wen Yulong wanted to slap himself. So much had happened recently that he had lost his composure. No! He had to go home and ask his dad if Ziqing really knew General Zhou.
Wen Yulong took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart.
