1336: A Barrier

A Barrier

But no matter how Huo Yunshen was, he would always do a few things for his family without fail.0

First, he would send Jing Xi and Ying Bao to school every day.

Then, he would always accompany Jing Xi to all of her check-ups.

And finally, he would go fetch his wife and daughter back from school and make dinner for them.

He also did what he promised Su Wanqin. He found them an apartment near Yunjing Manor for Mo Yutian and her.

That was the best he could do for her. If Su Wanqin had not gotten on her knees and begged, Huo Yunshen would've never done it.

Even though Huo Yunshen had acknowledged Su Wanqin as his mother, there was a barrier between them that was hard to break.

It might be because Huo Yunshen never knew of him being in a foster family from the beginning.

Unlike Jing Xi, who had known her parents for some time, Huo Yunshen hadn't.

As soon as Huo Yunshen came back from the border, he went to attend Jun Yan's inauguration.

After meeting with Jun Yan, Helian Qingyu officially appointed him to become the General.

Huo Yunshen and Xu Xiyan met Jun Yan in the Blue Palace's resting room.

Jun Yan was wearing the General's uniform, which enhanced his already charming looks.

"Congratulations!" Xu Xiyan smiled.

"I wouldn't be here if not for Boss… I really have to thank you for this," Jun Yan said and bowed.

"Don't worry about it, I'm just making sure that your talents aren't wasted."

Jun Yan also knew about Huo Yunshen's responsibility for rebuilding the Dragon Kingdom and sighed.

"The only regret I have is not being able to follow you to the Dragon Kingdom…"

"I get you, but you staying in Estan is for the best. I'm sure it will also benefit the Dragon Kingdom in the long run."

"I see… I won't disappoint you!"

Helian QIngyu was already addressing the parliament.

"That's all on Estan's current development," Helian QIngyu concluded. "I have another thing to announce. From today onwards, Jun Yan will be Estan's new General, effective immediately."

His announcement shocked the whole parliament.

In everyone's head, no one was a better choice than Helian QIngyu.

They had always thought that Helian Qingyu would take on both roles together and did not expect that he had a candidate.

They were also suspicious of Jun Yan because they'd never heard of him.

"Now then, let's invite Jun Yan up here to give his speech," Helian Qingyu said.

Xu Xiyan tapped on Jun Yan's shoulder outside the door.

"It's your turn now. We'll be rooting for you from the second floor."

"Thank you." Jun Yan nodded and pushed the door open.
