Protagonist:

Yan Qianqian

However, just as I was preparing to deal with the last enemy, I discovered he saw the situation was unfavorable, turned around, and ran.

I was already at the end of my strength, my body abnormally weak; although I wanted to chase him, I truly lacked the ability, and could only watch helplessly as he escaped the scene. Then Zi Hang once again took meticulous care of me, carrying me back slowly to Longchen Mountain Villa.

When we arrived at the villa, my mother happened to see this scene, and her gaze was immediately attracted to Zi Hang.

Although my father somewhat disapproved of me marrying so young, considering he had already saved me twice, he was too embarrassed to raise other objections.

Thus, just like that, the two of us naturally came together.

After hearing this story, Qianqian couldn't help but sigh: "Wow, Second Aunt, your love story is really beautiful!"

Wei Shengsheng smiled faintly and said modestly: "It's alright, actually nothing special."

She then recalled the first time she saw him: "The first time I saw him, I thought he looked quite handsome. However, my own complexion was dark as iron at the time, surely hideous."

Qianqian hurried to comfort her: "How could that be, Second Aunt, you're very pretty now! And you're together now, how wonderful!"

Standing beside them, Yan Jie couldn't help but show an envious expression, echoing: "Yes, truly wonderful!"

At this moment, Wei Shengsheng suddenly had an idea and quietly said to Qianqian: "Qianqian, do you have a little boy you like?"

Qianqian thought for a moment, shook her head, and replied: "No." Seeing this, Wei Shengsheng was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "Then wait a moment and look at my son, my son is so handsome! Will you be my daughter-in-law?"

Qianqian smiled shyly and hurriedly waved her hands: "Second Aunt, this matter can't be rushed, can't be rushed. We should first confirm the younger brother's origins; that's more important."

Wei Shengsheng has always been unrestrained and unconcerned with trivialities; at this time she was indeed distracted, everyone chatted happily, completely forgetting the passage of time. Unknowingly, the sun gradually set in the west, and the sky gradually darkened.

Just then, the maid from the kitchen hurried over and reported to everyone that dinner was ready and they could eat. Hearing this, everyone stood up and walked toward the dining table together.

However, just as everyone was preparing to take their seats, a slight rustling suddenly came from the doorway. Everyone turned to look at the same time, only to see two figures slowly walking in from outside.

As soon as these two figures appeared, Qianqian and Yan Jie's gazes were instantly attracted. Only to see one of them wearing a greenish-blue long robe, sleeves fluttering, as if an immortal had descended to the mortal world.

His face was like fine jade, his skin white as snow, smooth and warm like Yuzhi Bai Yu. A head of black long hair was tied high with a white jade hair crown, making his bearing even more elegant and graceful, truly the picture of a modest gentleman.

The other person standing beside him formed a sharp contrast. This person wore a brown long robe, with a noticeable tear at the sleeve, and the hem seemed to have a piece of cloth torn off, looking rather tattered.

His hair was even more disheveled, like a tangled mess, and his face was dirty, covered with patches of black grime, looking quite wretched.

Seeing this, Qianqian couldn't help but silently curse in her heart: "Oh no, how did I think both of these people were handsome young men just now? This is clearly a handsome young man and a beggar!"

Su Yan's gaze was sharp; she saw the two not far away at a glance, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile, and she called out softly: "Yun Zheng, Yun Lan, what happened?"

Bai Yunzheng turned his head upon hearing the voice, his face showing some embarrassment; he hesitated for a moment, but still answered truthfully: "Second Brother's furnace exploded while refining pills, so..."

His words were not yet finished when a teasing voice suddenly came: "I told you that you're not cut out for refining pills, but you wouldn't believe me. Look at you; if I hadn't looked carefully, I really wouldn't have recognized you as my son, and thought you were some beggar."

Although this voice was not small, everyone present heard it clearly. Everyone was first stunned, then couldn't help but laugh out loud with a puff.

Bai Yunlan's face instantly turned red; he scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly and explained: "I lack talent, but I can work hard."

Seeing this, Su Yan hurriedly smiled and smoothed things over: "Yun Lan, go change your clothes and tidy up; there are guests today." Hearing Su Yan's words, Bai Yunlan was as if granted a great pardon and hurriedly replied: "I know, Auntie, I'll go right now."

After saying this, he ran off as if oiled on the soles of his feet, disappearing in a puff of smoke.

Su Yan watched Bai Yunlan's departing back, shook her head helplessly, then turned to Bai Yunzheng and said: "Yun Zheng, sit first; when Yun Lan comes, I'll introduce you together."

Bai Yunzheng nodded, said okay, then walked to his own seat and sat down.

At this time, the maids had already begun serving dishes; one exquisite dish after another was placed on the table, fragrant and aromatic. Bai Yu saw this and smiled at Qianqian and Jie'er sitting beside him: "Qianqian, Jie'er, don't be reserved, start eating; we don't have many formalities here."

Hearing this, Qianqian hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Grandpa Bai!" Seeing this, Yan Jie beside him also hurriedly echoed: "Thank you, Grandpa Bai!"

At this time, Bai Yunzheng's gaze gradually fell on the two of them, and he secretly thought in his heart: "So these are the guests."

Meanwhile, Su Yan sitting beside them enthusiastically picked up the communal chopsticks, picked some dishes for Qianqian and Yan Jie, and smiled as she explained: "Auntie doesn't know what you two like to eat, so I just picked some at random; don't be polite, eat more. If there's anything you don't like, just throw it aside; don't be embarrassed at all, Auntie is using communal chopsticks."

Seeing this, Qianqian hurriedly said: "Auntie, we can pick our own dishes; you eat quickly, no need to mind us." Yan Jie also looked at the dishes in his bowl and politely said to Su Yan: "Thank you, Auntie."

However, just then, Wei Shengsheng suddenly interjected: "Qianqian, that stinky brat at Second Aunt's house is quite handsome too; wait until he's washed clean later, Auntie will have him come out for you to see."

Hearing this, Qianqian showed a speechless expression on her face and silently muttered in her heart: "Second Aunt, you're not that kind of person, why wait until he's washed clean to show me..." However, although she had some complaints in her heart, Qianqian still nodded helplessly.
