C392 A Race to the Top

Xu Juan laughed, "Looks like Japanese is quite well-prepared." Lu Lee said, "Their mission has already ended here. From now on, it's up to us." Xu Juan said to Victoria, "When you enter the city, go and book your plane ticket. Give us a call after Little Wolf and the others are all together." Victoria said, "Don't worry. Be careful of your safety."

When they reached the city, Victoria reluctantly parted ways with Lu Lee and the others.

Lu Lee looked at the time, "It's already been five minutes, why aren't they here yet?" Xu Juan said, "Maybe there's a traffic jam." Lu Lee said, "Then at least give me a call." Just as he was speaking, the phone rang. "Young Master, we have reached Huai Hai Road. Where are you now?" Lu Lee looked at the shops on the side of the road: "I'm at the spring entrance in Milan."

"Oh!" I'll see you in two minutes. "

Two minutes later, Lee Changloong received Lu Lee. When he saw that Lu Lee had two beauties accompanying him, he was stunned for a moment before smiling mischievously, "Young Master, aren't you afraid that the Master will be angry?" Lu Lee replied, "Didn't I tell you not to tell him that I'm back?" Lee Changloong said, "I didn't tell him. It's just that Xiao An accidentally overheard you calling me. I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold it in and blurt it out."

At this time, Lee Changloong saw Zhong Wuming: "Who is this old man?" Zhong Wuming smiled and said, "I'm a friend of Lu Lee. My name is Zhong Wuming." Strictly speaking, Lee Changloong wasn't really a martial artist, so he had never heard of Zhong Wuming's name before. However, he still politely said, "Elder Zhong, hello." He gave Lu Lee a strange look. How could Lu Lee have such an old friend?

Lu Lee asked, "Is the residence ready?" Lee Changloong said, "I'm ready. Don't worry, I guarantee that no one will know." Wu Tie nodded. "It's been hard on you." Lee Changloong said, "Young Master, don't say that. Being able to work for Young Master is my good fortune."

Lu Lee said, "Alright, bring us there." Lee Changloong said, "Alright, follow me to your car." Lee Changloong jumped into the car and Lu Lee's car followed closely behind him.

Lee Changloong knew how to find a place. Although it wasn't a remote place, it was a small building. It was only two stories high, an old building. Lee Changloong said, "This is my grandpa's house, but he and his grandma have already passed away. He gave this house to me. You can rest assured that you'll stay here. There aren't many people coming and going, so it's quite safe. "By the way, I've already filled the fridge with food. There's a vegetable market and a supermarket in the back street. It's very convenient to buy food.

After entering the room, he found that the interior was clean. It seemed like Lee Changloong did his work meticulously.

Lu Lee said, "Very good, Brother Li. Thank you." Lee Changloong said, "Alright, I didn't tell the old master when I came out, so it's time to hurry back. Young master, if you have anything, please give me a call. "Oh, right. There are two mobile phones on the table. The cards inside are new. They don't have names on them, so don't worry about them." With that, he walked to the door.

At this moment, his phone rang. He picked it up, listened for a bit, then turned to Lu Lee and said, "Young Master, it's for you." His expression was a bit unnatural. Lu Lee smiled bitterly and said, "He finally found out."

"Lu Lee?" Bai Changnian's tone on the phone was very unhappy. Lu Lee said softly, "Dad, it's Lu Lee." Bai Changnian scoffed: "Do you even put me, your father, in your eyes? If it wasn't for Xiao An telling me about it, I would really be in the dark. "

Lu Lee said, "Dad, don't be angry. My return this time is a very important matter, so I must keep my whereabouts a secret. As you know, the things I do are very dangerous. I didn't tell you, but I didn't want to implicate my family. " Bai Changnian said, "You know the danger too? My daughter has been on tenterhooks for more than two years, alone with her child, and you? I heard that you are quite amorous outside? "

Lu Lee did not say anything. He felt sorry for Bai Yaqi.

Bai Changnian said, "You and Xiao Li can come over together. We'll have a meal together at noon." Lu Lee had no choice but to reply, "Alright, Father."

Lu Lee gave some instructions to the three people and then followed Lee Changloong.

Lu Lee felt quite awkward when meeting Bai Changnian. He had never appeared in the house since their marriage, not even on the phone. In the dining room, Bai Changnian looked at Lu Lee, but didn't say too much to reprimand him. He just casually asked after he went through some household chores, "Is your return related to the 'Eight Big Items'?" Lu Lee did not know what he meant by "eight pieces". What eight pieces? "

Bai Changnian said: "Stop pretending, the whole of China has gone crazy, they say there are some four families, each family has two treasures, if combined they are called the 'Eight Great Treasures', as long as you combine the eight treasures in a special way, you can find a huge treasure, of course, there are also people who say it is a profound martial arts secret manual. I don't believe it, but a lot of people are looking for it, so it shouldn't be just baseless, right? "

Lu Lee never thought that even his father-in-law would know about such a secretive matter. It seems like Xu Juan was right. It would be difficult for Xiang Family to acquire the treasures from the other three families, especially Lu Family and Bi Family. They must have spread the news, because there would always be someone at the front.

Wu Tie nodded. "Yes, I did indeed come back for this matter." Bai Changnian sighed, "Look at you now, under such circumstances, why do you care so much about him? They treated you like this, but you're still going all out like this, is it worth it? "

Lu Lee said, "Father, I have no choice, and you should know that this news was purposely leaked out by someone. Isn't its purpose to cause chaos? Wasn't it just trying to fish in troubled waters? Although I am not sure what kind of big secret lies within the 'Eight Great Sects', but if the rumors are true, then who knows what kind of bloody storm it will be. " Bai Changnian said, "I know I can't persuade you, so you should be careful. "Oh right, I don't care about the women around you, but you have to get Yaqi in her place."

Lu Lee hurriedly said, "I will, Father." Bai Changnian said, "Is there anything you need my help with?" Lu Lee thought for a moment and said, "For now, there's nothing I need. I was secretly investigating, and the more low-profile I am, the better. And you also know, it's not good for me to show my face in Huaxia right now, there are too many people watching me."

Bai Changnian snorted and said, "I don't know what you are aiming for, but if there's a chance, I will definitely go and discuss it with your father. How can I use my own child as an exchange condition?" Lu Lee said, "Dad, don't be angry. Sometimes, there's a need to compromise, but compromise is just a method. Believe me, dad, everything will be fine. Everything will be fine."

Bai Changnian did not say anything else. After having his meal, he did not care about Lu Lee. He got into his car and left. He only said two words: Be good and take care of yourself! Lee Changloong drove Liu Tie back. He let out a long sigh of relief and said, "You scared me to death. I thought the lord would make a big fire." Lu Lee replied, "Don't worry. It's alright. He cares about me too." Lee Changloong said, "Hmm, actually, he is just someone who has a tough tongue but soft heart. He treats the people around him very well."

Lu Lee did not expect Xiang Qing to take the initiative to call him.

Xiang Qing asked softly, "Lu Lee, where are you?" Lu Lee lightly said, "You should already know where I am now, right? "Is there a need to ask even though you already know the answer?" Xiang Qing replied, "Why do you say that? You disappeared from the East Ocean Continent and we have no news of you." From her tone, Lu Lee was not lying. Tokugawa's family was quite impressive, to be able to hide from Xiang Qing and her "Dragon Group".

Lu Lee asked, "What business do you have with me?" He didn't answer Xiang Qing's question. He knew that even though he was using the satellite phone provided by Hasen, it wouldn't be long before Xiang Qing could find out that he was in Hua Xia. Xiang Qing said, "Did you return to Hua Xia? I have something urgent that I need to meet with you. " Lu Lee thought for a moment and said, "Where are you?" Xiang Qing replied, "I'm at Hsinking."

Lu Lee said: "How about this, you come to Shanghai, then give me a call." Xiang Qing said, "OK, alright."

Lee Changloong asked softly, "Young Master, is there any trouble?" Lu Lee shook his head. "It's nothing. He's just an old friend." There were many things that were inconvenient for him to know. Most importantly, Lu Lee did not want to bring trouble to the Bai Family, Xiang Family had not come to the Bai Family, and it was also because Lu Lee and the Bai Family were not very close.

Lee Changloong walked Lu Lee to his residence and then left. Seeing that Lu Lee had come back, Zhong Wuming said happily, "Lu Lee, should we go out and take a look? I haven't seen much of it in China." Lu Lee glanced at him and lightly said, "You can go by yourself. I still have some matters to discuss with them." Zhong Wuming curiously asked, "Oh? What is it? Did your father-in-law give you a hard time? Haha, leave it to me, I'll help you educate him. "1

Xu Juan rolled her eyes at Zhong Wuming. "Hey geezer, stop messing around. Go on and stay there!" Zhong Wuming said angrily, "Little girl, what does my conversation with Lu Lee have to do with you?" Xu Juan couldn't be bothered with him and pulled him down to a seat. "Look at your unsightly expression. Did something happen?" Lu Lee replied, "My father-in-law actually knows about the 'eight main matters'." Xu Juan frowned, "Eight pieces? Oh, I understand, it's the general name for the family heirloom of the four families. "

Lu Lee nodded. Zhong Wuming, who was messing around earlier, also calmed down: "Looks like most of the people in China know about it now. Not good, that's not good. Someone must have spread the news on purpose. Lu Lee, I think you better inform the Yun City and be careful. "

Yagyu Sizuka said, "They wouldn't be so naive as to think of directly snatching it from the Yun City, right?" Zhong Wuming glared at her: "Do you know about the sin of keeping others around? No matter how strong the Lu Family is, they will be at the end of their rope when there's more people to go there. " Xu Juan said: "The old man is right, Lu Family must be prepared." Lu Lee replied, "En, I'll give Lu Family a call later. There's one more thing, Xiang Qing wants to see me."
