Chapter 338: Chapter 337: Wang Hui Calls
Duanmu Han nodded and said, "I know, his mother is named Duanmu Qing, and she was from the Duanmu Family."
Qin Yanyang hurriedly asked, "Then, he has no blood relation to me, correct?"
Duanmu Han laughed softly, shaking his head, "No, you can be completely at ease about that."
Qin Yanyang cleared his throat embarrassedly and said, "I had asked my mother before, and she also said no. Now that I have heard it from grandpa, I am completely relieved."
Duanmu Han said, "You came today to accompany Yang Fei to inquire about his mother, didn’t you?"
Qin Yanyang did not hide the truth and nodded, "Yes, I hope Grandpa can tell us." She added, "Yang Fei has been an orphan since he was little. Now that he knows his mother’s name was Duanmu Qing, he wants to know about his mother’s past deeds. You understand his feelings, right, Grandpa?"
Duanmu Han nodded, "I understand. If it were not so, you bringing him here today wouldn’t have gotten you through the Duanmu family’s main gate."
Something moved in Qin Yanyang’s heart as she looked at her grandpa.
Duanmu Han closed his eyes, and after a while, opened them and sighed, "Tell Yang Fei to live his life well and to stop snooping around about his mother. It’s for his own good, and for the good of both the Qin Family and the Duanmu Family."
Qin Yanyang frowned slightly, staring at her grandpa, "Why? With the current Realm and Cultivation of both Yang Fei and me, plus the influences of the Qin and Duanmu families, what is there for you to fear, Grandpa?"
Duanmu Han looked at her and let out a bitter laugh, "You’ve been clever since you were small, but clever people often think too much."
Qin Yanyang shook her head, "It’s not that I think too much, rather, Grandpa, it’s clear you want to hide something. I just think that Yang Fei has grown up, and we are fond of each other. Even though Zhang Wenfeng has now escaped and poses a huge potential threat, as long as we’re careful, there aren’t many people or things in the Divine Continent that we need to fear."
Duanmu Han chuckled, looking at Qin Yanyang teasingly, "Really, not many?"
Confronting her grandpa’s gaze, something struck Qin Yanyang, "Are you referring to the ’Hidden Sect’?"
Duanmu Han sighed, "Girl, to ordinary people, we martial artists exist almost like beings out of legend. Likewise, for people like us, this world also holds many unknown and powerful entities. Remember your grandpa’s words, it is for your good, and for his. Let him not ask about these matters anymore."
Qin Yanyang’s mouth opened as if to continue questioning, but Duanmu Han waved his hand, "Listen to your grandpa’s advice, child. I’m tired. I won’t keep you company any longer today. You should go home."
Knowing her grandpa’s temperament, that once he made up his mind, not even ten oxen could pull him back, Qin Yanyang nodded and replied, "Okay, Grandpa. You rest. I will leave now, and come to see you another time."
She got up to leave, and just as she was about to exit the yard, Duanmu Han’s voice came from behind, "When you two are in Binhai, be more cautious of Zhang Wenfeng, he... is not that easy to deal with."
Qin Yanyang turned her head to look back, only to see her grandpa had already returned to his meditation room and closed the big door.
Back in the guest hall, she saw only Yang Fei sitting there all alone.
Qin Yanyang furrowed her brow and asked, "Where’s my uncle?"
"He left," Yang Fei said, smiling.
Qin Yanyang angrily said, "That’s too much, leaving you here alone. Is this how the Duanmu family treats guests?"
Yang Fei chuckled, "Don’t be mad. After all, we are also relatives of the Duanmu family. Relatives should be more casual, no need for such formal hospitality."
Seeing him speak like this, Qin Yanyang couldn’t help but smile, "And you still speak on their behalf even though my uncle treated you like this?"
Yang Fei shrugged indifferently, "I was indeed a bit angry before, but after being alone for so long, I’ve thought it through and am not so upset anymore."
Qin Yanyang took his hand and said, "Let’s go, let’s head back."
Yang Fei asked, "Back where?"
"To Binhai. That’s where our home is, Imperial City is pretty boring," Qin Yanyang said.
Yang Fei laughed, "Okay, I haven’t been to the medical hall for work in a long time. Recently, Li Xuantong has called many times, saying he’s encountered some problems he can’t solve."
Qin Yanyang laughed, "It’s more comfortable staying in Binhai."
"Didn’t your dad say we should go back for a visit?" Yang Fei remembered something and mentioned.
Qin Yanyang snorted, "What took him so long? I took you home before, and he gave us a cold face. Now that he knows how powerful you are, he wants me to bring you back again. Humph, I won’t indulge him."
"Isn’t that a bit inappropriate? After all, he’s my father-in-law. How are we supposed to face each other in the future?" Yang Fei said worriedly.
Qin Yanyang looked at him and asked, "In the future, are you going to live with my dad or with me?"
Yang Fei replied without hesitation, "Of course, I’ll live with you."
"Then whose advice will you follow?"
"I’ll listen to my wife and be a good husband," Yang Fei immediately responded.
So, the two of them headed directly to the airport.
Just before boarding, Qin Yanyang still made a call to his grandfather, saying they were heading back to Binhai first.
Qin Huai’an wasn’t surprised by this but just reminded the two to be cautious.
In the first-class cabin, Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang sat together.
Qin Yanyang repeated the conversation he had at the Duanmu Family with his grandfather to Yang Fei. After thinking for a moment, Yang Fei said, "Since they aren’t telling, there’s no need for us to rush to unearth everything. Let’s take it slow; things will eventually come to light."
He had originally thought about using his formidable martial power to go to the Duanmu Family and could have easily gotten the answers by capturing a few people, but considering the Duanmu Family were also relatives, specifically Qin Yanyang’s maternal grandfather’s family, such actions would be too inconsiderate and dropped the idea.
"By the way, when I was leaving, my grandfather cautioned us to be careful about Zhang Wenfeng, saying that this person is not so simple," said Qin Yanyang.
Yang Fei nodded and said, "Hmm, indeed, this person is not simple, but also not as terrifying as we imagined. If either of us encounters him alone, don’t confront him, just run first. If we are together, he won’t be able to do anything to us."
Qin Yanyang nodded and said, "Yeah, that’s what I was thinking too."
After returning to Binhai, everything went back to normal and both resumed their regular work routines.
Two days later, after breakfast, just as Qin Yanyang had left, Yang Fei received a phone call.
Noticing it was an unfamiliar overseas number, Yang Fei was intrigued, thinking it might be Li Xuanyu and the others, and answered, "Hello?"
"Hello, is this Mr. Yang?" a timid voice came through.
Yang Fei found the voice somewhat familiar, yet he couldn’t remember who it was.
"It’s Wang Hui, Mr. Yang. Do you remember me?" the voice came again.
Yang Fei smiled upon hearing this, "Ha ha, it’s you."
"Yes, it’s me, Mr. Yang. Are you in Binhai right now? I... I have an urgent matter to discuss with you," Wang Hui said anxiously.
Yang Fei estimated the time internally, his expression shifting slightly.
It had been a month and a half since he had implanted that True Qi in Wang Hui’s body, actually half a month overdue.
He wondered how this guy managed to delay for half a month before coming to him, his interest piqued in the Demon Planting Technique he had left inside Wang Hui.
He said, "I’m in Binhai. Come over."
"I’m already in Binhai. Where are you? I need to see you immediately. I have important matters to report," Wang Hui hurriedly said.
Thinking for a moment, Yang Fei replied, "Meet me at Li Xuantong Medical Hall."
