Chapter 1916 1917: The Hongmen Banquet, Xiao Nantian

As Ye Xunhuan spoke, his gaze became incredibly deep, as if he had fallen into distant memories.

Once, he had a group of brothers who could sacrifice for one another, sharing life and death, yet now they are separated by the heavens.

To this day, Ye Xunhuan still doesn't know who betrayed them, killing all his brothers.

If his brothers were still alive and treated him as Xie Mingjiang did, then Ye Xunhuan wouldn't be able to harm them either.

After all, so many years of brotherhood can't be discarded just like that.

This is why Ye Xunhuan could understand why Qiu Shuihan didn't hold grudges or seek vengeance against Xie Mingjiang back then.

Qiu Shuihan slowly exhaled a breath and softly said, "I thought you'd think I'm foolish!"

"How could I!" Ye Xunhuan slowly took out cigarettes, tossed one to Qiu Shuihan, then lit one for himself, speaking again slowly, "Although there's quite an age difference between us, I can understand you."

"After all, you and I are both men, both of us once had brothers!"

Qiu Shuihan nodded in agreement, "Exactly, it's because I saw him as a brother that I never made trouble for him, but I didn't expect that my deep loyalty almost harmed you and Ruoxi. If it had harmed you two, I…"

Qiu Shuihan didn't continue, but a touch of bitterness slowly rose at the corner of his mouth.

Then, Ye Xunhuan spoke again, "Dad, it's all in the past now, don't dwell on it!"

For Ye Xunhuan, Xie Mingjiang is now just a thing of the past, there's no need to cling to it!

Besides, he and Qiu Ruoxi both are unharmed, so he doesn't want Qiu Shuihan to feel guilty!

Qiu Shuihan slowly exhaled a thick puff of smoke: "Alright, let's not talk about it anymore, it's all over!"

Ye Xunhuan hadn't intended to say anything about it originally, it was Qiu Shuihan who brought it up again. Now that Qiu Shuihan wishes to let it go, naturally Ye Xunhuan wouldn't continue discussing it.

...

Time flew by, and night fell quickly. The neon lights on both sides of the road simultaneously lit up, illuminating the entire city, turning it into a city of mist, plunging countless people within!

When Qiu Ruoxi returned home after work and saw Qiu Shuihan and Xiahou Yutong, a joyful expression immediately appeared on her delicate face!

"Dad, Mom!"

After shouting, Qiu Ruoxi quickly walked towards Qiu Shuihan and Xiahou Yutong, looking very excited.

Although Qiu Ruoxi had never mentioned Qiu Shuihan and Xiahou Yutong in front of Ye Xunhuan, nor had she called them.

But this didn't mean Qiu Ruoxi didn't miss them.

After all, Qiu Shuihan and Xiahou Yutong are Qiu Ruoxi's parents, being a daughter, how could she not miss her parents?

"When did you arrive, why didn't you tell me in advance? I could have picked you up!"

Ye Xunhuan had previously told Qiu Ruoxi that Qiu Shuihan and Xiahou Yutong were coming, and she was well prepared, always waiting for Qiu Shuihan and Xiahou Yutong to arrive!

But she hadn't expected Qiu Shuihan and Xiahou Yutong to come without a word.

"No need to pick us up, your dad and I aren't so old we can't move!" Xiahou Yutong looked at Qiu Ruoxi with overflowing affection, her mesmerizing eyes greedily scanning Qiu Ruoxi's body back and forth.

Earlier, in the villa, Xiahou Yutong had already asked Aunt Wang about how Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi's relationship was recently.

Aunt Wang didn't hide anything, she completely told the truth to Xiahou Yutong, making Xiahou Yutong feel overjoyed.

Considering when Qiu Ruoxi and Ye Xunhuan first got married, during their first visit, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi nearly clashed!

Now, hearing from Aunt Wang, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi are almost inseparable, as a mother how could she not be thrilled!

"Still, you should have informed me!" Qiu Ruoxi softly said, "So I could be prepared!"

"If we had informed you beforehand, how could we have made a surprise inspection to see if you were still causing trouble with Xunhuan?" Qiu Shuihan said at this time.

When talking to Qiu Ruoxi, Qiu Shuihan rarely smiled, evidently playing the strict father role.

This was something Qiu Ruoxi was used to. She directly responded, "Ask him, have I been causing any trouble?"

Ye Xunhuan was immediately embarrassed: "Dad, Ruoxi and I are quite good, the two of us have no issues, don't worry!"

Qiu Shuihan knew by now that Qiu Ruoxi and Ye Xunhuan really had a good marital relationship, and his words were entirely intentional.

"Hear that, I haven't caused any trouble!" Qiu Ruoxi snorted softly, clearly dissatisfied with Qiu Shuihan's indiscriminate blame!

For this, Qiu Shuihan didn't argue with Qiu Ruoxi. Though he rarely showed a smile to her, his heart adored Qiu Ruoxi deeply, after all, she's his only daughter, if not her, who would he pamper?

Though the saying goes that daughters are a father's lover in the past life, and a little cotton-padded jacket in this life, this doesn't quite apply to Qiu Shuihan and Qiu Ruoxi's father-daughter dynamic.

Qiu Ruoxi and Qiu Shuihan didn't have much to say, but rather, she had more to converse with Xiahou Yutong.

And Qiu Shuihan didn't mind it either, instead, he chatted with Ye Xunhuan.

Soon Aunt Wang served dinner, and everyone sat down at the table and began to eat.

Because Ye Xunhuan was injured and couldn't drink alcohol, even though Qiu Shuihan wanted to drink with Ye Xunhuan, neither Qiu Ruoxi nor Xiahou Yutong would agree, so Qiu Shuihan didn't suggest it.

Though there was no alcohol at the table, Ye Xunhuan and the others still ate deliciously, the atmosphere was harmonious!

Meanwhile, as Ye Xunhuan and others sat at the table eating, in the capital, Yan Jingchu had already set up a feast of confrontation!

And this feast of confrontation was targeted at Xiao Nantian of the Xiao family!

If it were before, Yan Jingchu would definitely lack the courage to host such a feast for Xiao Nantian, but now, Yan Qingjun is back, and furthermore, the feast was completely Yan Qingjun's suggestion!

In Yanjing Hotel, Yan Jingchu sat in the private lounge, her expression serene, quietly waiting for Xiao Nantian's arrival.

She didn't know how long it took, but the phone on the table rang.

Upon hearing the ringtone, Yan Jingchu immediately picked up her phone and glanced at the message displayed.

Seeing the message, a gleam instantly flashed in Yan Jingchu's phoenix eyes!

Xiao Nantian has arrived!
