1431: C1431 He will Grow Old as the Moon Shines in the Sky

C1431 He will Grow Old as the Moon Shines in the Sky

Duan Chuhuang, who got off the car first when he saw Elder Duan also standing behind the door, was shocked.

In his memory, there had only been three times in the past ten years that Elder Duan had been able to personally welcome him.

But those three times that they came to the Manor to visit Elder Duan, who were they?

Even in this world, their status and identity held a significant influence.

Who is Lee Nanfang?

His martial arts were not bad, but his survival today was mainly due to his luck. He was just a scum who liked to linger between different women all day long.

The only reason why Duan Family were handed over was because there were a bunch of gray colored powers backing him up. They were of help to the rise of Duan Family and the Northern Meteor Realm when it came to power.

But this time, he was brought home by Duan Xiangning, and Duan Chuhuang, the third generation Patriarch of Duan Family, had already given him a lot of face by personally going to Qingshan to receive him.

And it was at midnight.

"Grandfather, why did you come out?"

Duan Chuhuang, who was slightly stunned, quickly walked up and supported the old man. His tone was filled with fear.

He was scared because he felt that he had overestimated Lee Nanfang as much as possible.

However, Elder Duan's attitude immediately made him realize that his attitude towards Lee Nanfang wasn't high enough. To him, this was definitely a big mistake.

"Hur hur, it's fine."

Elder Duan looked at the car in the middle and said casually: "I'm getting old. When a person gets old, the sleeping time will be greatly shortened. It's not that I can't sleep, it's that I earn one more time just by looking at this world once more. "

"Grandfather!" How, how can you say that? You will live to be a hundred years old. "

After hearing Elder Duan's words, Duan Chuhuang became even more frightened as his voice started to tremble.

He finally understood why his grandfather ignored his status and personally went to welcome Lee Nanfang.

Because Grandpa is old.

The older a person was, the more valuable their face would be.

Elder Duan personally went out to welcome Lee Nanfang, not for Lee Nanfang, but for the gray faction behind Lee Nanfang.

If Elder Duan was ten years younger, he wouldn't give anyone face.

Relying on the tragic contributions made by the Dali in the national war of Last Century, there were very few people in the world who were qualified to receive Elder Duan's favor.

Now, he was giving the grey power behind Lee Nanfang face because he could clearly feel that he was old — the time for him to live was running out.

If the Dali Sect had a plethora of talented people, Elder Duan would obviously not be worried about the aftermath.

But there was no one at the Duan Family.

Although there were three males in the second generation of Duan Family, other than Duan Erdai who could barely hold onto the stage, the other two brothers were wooden and petty, both of them unable to support the mud on the wall.

The only thing that made Elder Duan gratified was that, after he discovered that his teaching method was wrong, he was able to correct it in time and teach Duan Chuhuang with his utmost care. Only then, could he be considered to have raised a new generation Patriarch with qualified Duan Family.

However, Duan Chuhuang was only one person.

No one could rely on their own strength to support a top family in China.

Not even Duan Chuhuang.

The people often said that a good man needed three more to help him.

Elder Duan was worried that once he drove the crane into the west, Duan Chuhuang would be unable to handle it alone. Then, the energy surrounding the Duan Family would be torn into pieces.

Gradually, Duan Family would fall from the ranks of the top families, and be reduced to the ranks of second or even third-rate families.

That's what Elder Duan didn't want to see.

He believed that the ancestors who had died on the battlefield were not willing to see it either.

If Elder Duan wasn't at the end of his life, he wouldn't have the face to face his ancestors after his death if he had planned a development plan for his children for at least ten years.

That's why Elder Duan took the initiative to welcome Lee Nanfang tonight.

He believed that with his identity and status, after making such a low profile, not only would the gray forces behind Lee Nanfang be shocked, even Yue Zitong and Hua Yeshen, who were currently clenching their teeth and wanting to do something to Duan Family in the north after the man was kidnapped by the Duan Family woman, would also maintain their usual silence, temporarily calming down.

It was only temporary.

Those two women were definitely not the kind of men who would give up after being kidnapped, just for Elder Duan's sake.

Elder Duan was very clear about that.

However, no matter how clear it was, so what?

This was all he could do right now.

As for how far Duan Family could go after he returned home, that would depend on Duan Chuhuang's ability.

It was from Elder Duan's three words, "I'm old", that Duan Chuhuang was able to understand the meaning behind those words. Thus, he felt the burden on his shoulders had suddenly become heavy.

A weight that had never been there before.

The truth was even more cruel than he had imagined.

His mouth moved and closed.

His nose twitched, and he quickly lowered his head.

In that instant, he suddenly felt incomparable regret.

It was because of what he had once said to Shen Yun: "Don't love the mountains and rivers, love the beauties."

Before this moment, in his heart, love was far more important than career.

In order to be with his beloved girl, he would rather not be the Patriarch of Duan Family.

In the past, whenever he had this thought, he would feel an indescribable sense of pride.

Now it seemed that the indescribable pride was not because of any other reason, but because the deepest part of his heart had already been defined. Stupid.

Stupid pride.

Grandfather devoted the rest of his life to nurturing him and was gratified by his "vigorous" growth.

Once Elder Duan found out, Duan Chuhuang, who had entrusted all his effort, would have a reaction to the fact that he was willing to throw away everything for Shen Yun, even traveling with her, what kind of reaction would that be?

Dead.

He could only die suddenly.

Elder Duan's body was already very thin, and he needed someone to support him when he walked.

What was a waning away from life?

It was just a candle burning in the wind. If the wind was strong enough, it might be extinguished.

Duan Chuhuang, whom he nurtured wholeheartedly, was a love-seed that didn't love beauties in the world — not only the wind, but also a hurricane. How could a candle withstand that?

"How could I let grandfather down on my expectations? I lost my head and want to throw everything away to wander the world with Shen Yun? No. I don't want to do that. I am the future Patriarch of the Duan Family. Whether or not Duan Family can be as brilliant as they were in the past would depend on me doing my best. I absolutely cannot bury my Dali because of the selfishness of my children. "

Duan Chuhuang took a deep breath and slowly raised his head. Only then did he realize that Elder Duan was looking at him.

The corner of Elder Duan's mouth hooked up into a gratified smile.

With his left hand that was full of age spots, he lightly patted the back of his hand.

"Grandpa …"

Duan Chuhuang's pupils suddenly contracted as he shouted.

He understood.

His grandfather had already known about his relationship with Shen Yun, and very likely already knew that he was going to "not fall in love with a beauty."

However, Elder Duan pretended not to know.

He was a wise old man.

He was very clear that the moment he interfered with this matter, the Patriarch, the future of Duan Family, and so on, he would forcefully suppress Duan Chuhuang leaving Shen Yun, and this matter would definitely cause everyone in the family to know about it.

Elder Duan didn't want to see half of his life's work go down the drain.

He could only wait.

Waiting for the best opportunity.

Waiting for Duan Chuhuang to come to his own realization.

Now, Elder Duan had finally found the best opportunity, waiting for Duan Chuhuang's sudden enlightenment.

Elder Duan, who had always been worried, could finally relax.

Even if he died now, he would still be full of smiles.

After the two of them looked at each other for a few seconds, the guilt and other expressions in Duan Chuhuang's eyes were quickly replaced by determination. He said softly, "Grandfather, don't worry. "I will do my best to become someone like you."

Elder Duan didn't say anything, he just patted the back of Hope's hand again and looked towards the second car.

Duan Xiangning had already got out of the car. She stood in front of the door and stared blankly at them.

Compared to Duan Chuhuang, she was even more shocked when she saw her grandfather personally welcome Duan Xiangning.

Never in her wildest dreams would she imagine that there would be a day when her grandfather would personally go out and welcome her home.

Even though she knew clearly that the reason her grandfather had displayed such a high attitude, was because of Lee Nanfang, and the gray power backing him up that was beneficial to his Duan Family.

But she was the person involved.

A light cough came from behind him, "Ahem, so many people."

Lee Nanfang also got off the car.

The feeling Scumbag Lee had towards Duan Family that was so huge, to welcome his son-in-law back, was naturally not as shocking as Duan Chuhuang and his sister's.

At most, he just felt that it was a bit too grand.

Since they were family, why be so polite?

He wasn't some royal relative, was it necessary for such an old man to respectfully welcome him in the middle of the night?

"Come, I'll bring you to see grandpa."

Duan Xiangning woke up from her stupor by hearing his light cough. She took his hand, softly said something, and quickly walked toward the entrance of the Manor.

"Grandfather, why did you come out?"

Duan Xiangning walked up to Elder Duan and released Lee Nanfang, bowing and bowing with an uneasy feeling in her heart.

Lee Nanfang did not need anyone to teach him, just like Duan Xiangning, he bowed and greeted him.

"This is the first time Duan Family's grandson-in-law has come to my door, so of course I have to make a gesture. Hehe, Ye Shen, you must be tired from the journey, right? "

Elder Duan smiled at his granddaughter and looked at Lee Nanfang.

When Lee Nanfang came, everyone would call him Ye Shen.

This was what Elder Duan had personally instructed him to do.

To people of the Duan Family, there was no meaning at all.

Whether Lee Nanfang was called Lee Nanfang or Ye Shen didn't have much meaning to them.

Some people even felt that Lee Nanfang was a human being — even if he was a cat or dog, as long as he could be of any use, he would still be respected enough by the old gramps if he came in person.

"It's alright, I'm not too tired. My physical fitness is a bit better."

Lee Nanfang replied respectfully. His tone was full of respect. When Elder Duan called him Ye Shen, he didn't have any objections.

He respected the elderly and loved the young. This was something that his wife had taught him since he was young.

Even though he had already forgotten who his wife was, he still hadn't forgotten this point.

This had already become his instinct.

As for his statement that he was not too tired and had better physical fitness, it was not an act, but the truth.

Elder Duan was very satisfied with Lee Nanfang's attitude. He personally held Lee Nanfang's arm and said with a smile, "Let's go home."

Under the crowd's escort, Lee Nanfang and Duan Xiangning, one on the left and one on the right, supported by Elder Duan, walked into the Manor entrance.

It was no different from the treatment he received when his other new daughter-in-law returned to his parents' home.

However, without a doubt, Elder Duan's attitude, including Chen Shounan's, shocked everyone. When they looked at Lee Nanfang again, their expressions were much more serious than before.

Far away from the city, a number of small bright spots were speeding towards them.

Everyone saw it.

They could faintly guess that those cars were most likely coming to the Duan Family Villa.0

Including Elder Duan.

However, no one said it out loud. They acted as if they didn't see it at all. Everyone was wholeheartedly and wholeheartedly immersing themselves in the 'joy' of welcoming their son-in-law to their doorstep.

Except Duan Xiang.

As soon as Lee Nanfang got off the car, Duan Xiang saw him immediately.

The look in his eyes was extremely vicious, like a poisonous snake hidden in the darkness.
