Chapter 475

~7 min read 1,267 words

Seeing Yun Shen didn't take this little episode to heart. The square-faced young man's aftermath would naturally be handled by the Zhao family, and it had nothing to do with him. He was even too lazy to probe the other party's name.

Although the square-faced young man could cast the One-Character Formula, it was not the Zhao family's 【Thin Gold Script】 paired with the 【Nongfang Thousand-Character Classic】.

If he were a member of the Zhao family, it would be impossible for him to be so reckless and not even know about this kind of thing.

The Secret Pavilion is where the foundation of the Dao Song Zhao family lies, and the main hall they were just in was only one of this magnificent building complex.

In such a large place, the secret defensive measures must be countless.

He should be a child of another noble family whose ancestors created font-type skills. If his background is not thick enough, I estimate that after today, this child will be miserable.

As soon as Seeing Yun Shen left the Secret Pavilion, he saw a refined middle-aged man and the Zhao family head, who was bowing his head and trembling, among the crowd.

Looking closely, the Zhao family head's face seemed to be bruised and swollen, as if he had just been beaten up by someone.

Zhu Ying, Old Cun Tou, and Fan Qiuyan looked somewhat stunned, as if something incomprehensible had happened.

And Zhao Shuiyun's complexion was slightly flushed, as if her emotions were somewhat agitated.

A large group of Zhao family onlookers had even gathered around.

What is all this?

During the time he went in to observe, did any major event happen?

Seeing Yun Shen wanted to check the panel of this refined middle-aged man to see who it was.

But just like when checking Chairman Cai's information, he only saw a string of question marks.

The difference is that Chairman Cai would not hide all the information, and his identity and name were not hidden.

And this refined middle-aged man could not see any information at all.

Everyone also noticed Seeing Yun Shen, who had left the Secret Pavilion early. Zhu Ying said in surprise, "Seeing Yun Shen, why did you come out so quickly? The time isn't up yet, right?"

"We'll talk later. This senior is..."

Seeing Yun Shen looked at the refined middle-aged man, hoping that everyone could introduce him.

Fan Qiuyan introduced to Seeing Yun Shen, "Boss, this is the Zhao family's Old Ancestor Zhao Ji. You should have heard of him."

Seeing Yun Shen was shocked in his heart. He hadn't expected that he would be able to meet such a big shot on this trip today.

He just wanted to say something respectful when he heard Zhao Ji say hurriedly, "No need to be restrained; just call me Little Zhao."

Everyone: "..."

"Cough, cough, I said it wrong; just call me Old Ji."

Everyone: "..."

This old gentleman had been in seclusion for too many years and didn't understand at all that his form of address was a homophone for "gay."

It was also fortunate that the person in front of them was an old senior; if it weren't, they might have already laughed out loud at this moment.

Seeing Yun Shen smoothed things over and coughed, "Let's just call you Old Zhao."

"That works too."

Zhao Ji had the appearance of a kind elder who was easy to talk to, smiling, "Today, this old man has come out of seclusion for only three things."

Hearing this, the Zhao family head lowered his head even deeper.

"First, to uphold justice for Shuiyun. This matter has already been done almost completely; we are just waiting for the main culprit to return to the Main World tomorrow to conduct a public trial."

Seeing Yun Shen showed a suspicious look. Zhao Shuiyun shouldn't have any background within the Zhao family, right? How could such a big shot suddenly stand up for her?

"Second, to adopt Shuiyun as a foster daughter. She has already agreed to this matter."

Seeing Yun Shen was stunned. The Old Ancestor adopting a descendant who knows how many generations away as a foster daughter—who came up with this operation?

In this way, Zhao Shuiyun's seniority directly "reversed the heavens," higher than her late biological parents...

From the expressions of the people around, it could be seen that they should have already known about this matter.

Then it is very likely that this was said specifically for him to hear...

A sense of foreboding inexplicably arose in Seeing Yun Shen's heart. He always felt that what Zhao Ji was about to say next was specifically aimed at him.

"This third... I heard that Young Friend Seeing Yun Shen is not yet married and has no romantic partner, and I also learned that these two children also have feelings for you, so this old man wants to marry them to you as concubines."

Zhao Ji looked at Zhao Shuiyun and Zhao Yunqin beside him, and the smile on his face became even more intense.

Zhao Shuiyun's inner thoughts: "Foster father is really something, speaking only the truth~"

Zhao Yunqin's inner thoughts: "... I'm not, I don't have it, Old Ancestor, don't talk nonsense..."

For some reason, Zhao Yunqin always felt that she had a sense of déjà vu of being bought one and getting one free.

The one being given away was her.

Originally, she thought that as long as she was non-violent and non-cooperative throughout the whole process and didn't have any contact with Seeing Yun Shen in the future, it would be fine. Who knew that the task of accompanying guests today was almost over, and she was suddenly married off by the Old Ancestor who popped out of nowhere...

The Dao Song Zhao family is not the Wu Ming Zhu family. If someone did this in the Zhu family, they would be punished according to the Zhu family's ancestral teachings.

But it is different in the Zhao family. The Zhao family's Old Ancestor still has a lot of weight in his words, and no one dares to stop him from marrying her off.

She highly suspected that this was recommended by her "dear old father."

Just now, they saw two figures in the sky from far away, one willing to beat and the other willing to suffer.

I suppose it was at that time that this old father offered slanderous words in front of the Old Ancestor, right?

He must have said how she fell in love with Seeing Yun Shen at first sight, but just couldn't let go of her face, and so on.

Finally, to prevent her from ruining the good thing, he even specifically transmitted a threat to her: "Qin'er, you wouldn't want your mother to be sad and heartbroken after her husband dies and she becomes a widow, would you?"

Zhao Yunqin's fists clenched on the spot.

She really hoped that her mother would lose her husband in the past, but after growing up, she knew that things were not that simple.

If it weren't for this scumbag father, I'm afraid her mother would have been secretly harmed by the Zhao family matriarch, who could not tolerate sand in her eyes, long ago.

And if she came forward to deny it, this scumbag father might really be beaten to death on the spot for deceiving the Old Ancestor.

And once she lost the protection of her scumbag father, her mother would probably not be safe even if she stayed on the Myriad Races Battlefield in the future...
