80: C80 I Can Bear It

C80 I Can Bear It

The old man stood up and clasped his hands behind his back. When he passed by Ye Mo, he smiled and patted Ye Mo's shoulder meaningfully without saying a word.

The bodyguard pulled open the door of the room and then stood on both sides of the old man to protect him as he left with the old man.

From start to finish, Zong Hu had been standing at the side like an iron tower. He didn't express any opinions, and he didn't make any eye contact with anyone. Besides Zou Qi's personal safety, he didn't interfere with anything else.

The atmosphere became eerily silent.

Ye Mo said after thinking for a while.

"I'm free anytime. If Seventh Master decides to make a move, I can do it on his behalf."

Zou Qi was shocked when he heard that and got out of his thoughts.

"Don't worry about me, Cai Leecheng is one of the top five rich people with Hanggang. It won't be easy for him to treat his son's illness."

Zou Qi waved his hand and said.

Ye Mo was stunned. He did not care who the old man was talking about just now, because no matter who it was, it was a matter between Zou Qi's family and Zou Qi.

However, when he heard Zou Qi mention Cai Leecheng's name, Ye Mo finally matched him up.

When he was at Yanjing, he had heard of this name before, but Cai Leecheng never came to Yanjing, so he didn't have a deep impression of it.

However, his master, Huang Fuzhi, held extreme respect and admiration for Cai family's old man, so Ye Mo had some understanding of Cai family as well.

As for the old man from the Cai family, he was also a very unique person, worthy of being called a legend.

Since the time of the Republic of China, Cai family had always been a large business, and Old Man Cai had long since expanded the sales channels overseas, to the point that during the war, the Cai family had always been relatively unaffected due to their dealings with various forces.

During the civil war, Old Man Cai chose the right choice among the two sides of the regime and wholeheartedly supported them, making a great contribution to the victory in the war. However, after the war ended, Old Man Cai quickly retreated and tactfully declined everything, took down his position, and led the sons of Cai family back to Hanggang to continue his career as a merchant.

Thus, during times of turmoil, the Cai family had once again avoided the crisis. Due to Old Man Cai's sharp eyes, the number of people who acted decisively increased, and even one year, the Cai family had ascended to the position of the richest man in the Hanggang.

Due to the extraordinary contributions of the Cai family during the period of chaos, the various elders took great care of the Cai family. It was precisely because of the swift flow of the Cai family that allowed them to retreat without fear, that allowed them to achieve their current transcendent status.

Back then, Huang Fuzhi had taken advantage of the matter regarding Old Master Cai to educate Ye Mo.

Only those who had the right to do so would have the right to do so.

There were many people who understood the path of choice, but very few could actually do it. Throughout the history of China, many heroes lost their wits because of gains and losses. Old Man Cai was indeed a legend of his generation.

It was just that he did not expect that the thing he had encountered this time was the matter of his Cai family.

Ye Mo thought for a while.

Zou Qi was right, once it was related to Cai family, it was not certain if it was a good thing or bad thing.

Although the people from the Cai family had never participated in politics, because their family's financial power was too great, they had already had a great influence on the local decisions. After all, the finances, the wealth, and the administration of the clan had all disappeared a long time ago, and no one could tell whether or not the Cai family was still as unaffected as it was in the past.

Although Cai Leecheng never went to Yanjing, there were quite a few people going to and from Hanggang, so it was not easy to explain this matter clearly.

It is not clear whether this will be labeled as faction by the people, but the proverbs of the ancients about the company of a man and a tiger are not false.

The person behind him had an even more complicated network of connections. Being able to treat illnesses was different from other things, as the person's ability to treat old people and children made it even more dangerous. Once they started without any improvements, any subsequent changes would be suspected and linked together.

Amongst the three famous doctors, Hua Tuo was killed by Cao Cao and the small magpie was chased by Duke Cai Huan. Only the elegant Zhang Zhongjing did not have any disputes between doctors and patients, because he was a side profession and the main culprit himself would not pursue the matter. However, those powers behind Cai family, such as those who wanted to curry favor with the Cai family, would most likely act to help the main family restore this "face".

After pondering over the cause and effect, Ye Mo made a decision.

"I can go."0

Ye Mo said to Zou Qi.

Zou Qi didn't seem to be surprised by Ye Mo's decision. He patted the stool beside him, indicating for Ye Mo to sit down.

"Little friend Ye, this old man will say one more thing. No matter what your ultimate goal is, you have to understand one thing." Little friend Ye, this old man will say one more thing.

Zou Qi knocked on the table softly.

As for power, it is called power. The more power one's power is sucked into the center, the stronger the suction force is. Although the person in the center of the storm seems to have an important position, in reality, he is being imprisoned.

Ye Mo turned his head to look at the handicapped old man. This old man had a lot of power and influence in Dongjiang, all forces would give him face, and he could cover the sky with one hand in Dongjiang.

However, looking closer, Zou Qi seemed more like an ordinary old man from an ordinary family. His head was covered with wind and frost, and there was a brand mark at the corners of his eyes.

"Don't be swallowed by the desire in your heart. Regardless of whether the one supporting you is your responsibility or your hatred, the path is still your own."

Zou Qi patted Ye Mo's hand. The two of them were like a grandfather and grandson.

Behind him, Zong Hu's tiger-like eyes narrowed and his expression changed.

He could feel that Zou Qi did not plan anything when he said those words. It was like the care and love of a senior towards his juniors. This kind of feeling made his nose sour, but he suppressed it.

He was born and bred. Up till now, only his master and mother had truly cared for him. Ye Mo had experienced pain before, so no one else would be able to detect his emotions that easily.

"Seventh Master, don't worry. I'm confident."

Ye Mo calmed his mood and replied as usual.

"If you really decide, then let A'Hu go with you. We can look after each other as well."

Zou Qi glanced at Ye Mo and sighed.

It was too similar!

Ye Mo's current situation was very similar to his own condition back then. No wonder he felt so close to Ye Mo. Ye Mo had a shadow of himself on him!

After Zou Qi's order, Ye Mo and Zong Hu got up and said their goodbyes.

"Aya, if you're still alive, are our children like you or like me …"

Zou Qi muttered as he looked at the gradually darkening scenery outside the window.

"..."
