Chapter 296 Zhuang Le's Background (2/2)



Zhuang Le said angrily, "How can a nephew be closer than a granddaughter? You have to rely on me."

"Fine, fine, you're so great, okay?" Old Zhuang was too lazy to argue with her.

Liao Qingshan and Li Xiyue exchanged a glance and quickly comforted the master and apprentice respectively.

The meal lasted until midnight, and both host and guests enjoyed themselves immensely.

Liao Qingshan and Li Xiyue took the drunk Zhuang Lao back to his house.

Zhuang Le was also drunk, but refused to be helped. He stumbled into the house by himself, climbed onto the bed and fell asleep immediately, even... snoring.

Li Xiyue: "..."

Despite being so good-looking, his personality is practically like a man's.

Li Xiyue covered her with a blanket, went out the door, and went into the courtyard. She could still hear Old Zhuang talking to Liao Qingshan.

“Junior nephew, if you can help my girl find her family, I can die in peace.”

"Uncle-Master, don't say such unlucky things. You will surely live to be a hundred years old."

"I use witchcraft to defy fate and change people's lives, sacrificing countless years of my own. I don't have many days left, and this is my only wish..."

Li Xiyue's heart tightened.

Zhuang Le, who was fast asleep, opened her eyes, and a tear rolled down her cheek.

Liao Qingshan came out of the house and saw his granddaughter still waiting in the yard. He quickly said, "Yueyue, you have to go to work tomorrow. Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"Grandpa, my grandmaster..."

Liao Qingshan sighed and gestured for her to go inside to talk.

"Witchcraft is said to be able to snatch people from the clutches of Yama, but it is also going against the will of Heaven. Everyone's lifespan is predetermined and cannot be changed at will. My uncle is kind-hearted, but he has probably done a lot of things against the will of Heaven over the years, which has shortened his own lifespan."

When I first met him, I could tell something was wrong with his appearance. Upon closer inspection, I realized that he didn't have much time left to live. He was afraid that Lele would worry, so he told me not to say it.

Sigh, I never imagined that after so many years apart, our reunion would be like this…

Li Xiyue also felt a little heavy-hearted, but she didn't want her grandfather to be too grief-stricken, so she quickly comforted him, "Grandpa, don't worry too much. It's too late, go to sleep. We can talk about it tomorrow."

"Okay, Yueyue, you should go to sleep early too."

Li Xiyue returned to her room, took a hot shower in her spatial dimension, and then lay down in bed.

Thinking about his grandmaster's affairs, he couldn't fall asleep for a long time, and only managed to sleep for a while when it was almost dawn.

Fortunately, she drank spiritual spring water all year round, so even if she only took a short nap, she did not show any signs of fatigue.

After getting up and making breakfast, none of the three of them got up until they finished eating. Li Xiyue had no choice but to leave the breakfast warm in the pot, leave a note, and go to work first.

As she stepped outside, she passed Lu Feng's house and saw him coming out as well. She asked curiously, "Brother Lu, did you stay here last night?"

This is just one of Lu Feng's residences; he has other houses elsewhere, but he rarely stays here.

"Yes, I didn't have much to do last night, so I came back early. Did you have any guests? It seemed quite lively." Lu Feng stood in the wind, which fluttered the hem of his clothes.

Imposing and dignified.

Li Xiyue laughed and said, "I found my maternal grandfather's long-lost martial uncle. He brought his female disciple to my house and will probably stay here for a long time... Sorry for disturbing your rest."

"No." Lu Feng shook his head, his smile gentle. "It's lively with lots of people, and I like it lively."
