Chapter 1315: Chapter 1318: Someone is Here! (Extra for ’148208188’ brother!!)

”Going out to play? Zhen Feng, take us up the mountain for fun?”

Leng Ming’s eyes shifted as he softly made the suggestion.

”Sure!”

Yue Zhenfeng smiled and nodded.

Jiang Chen revealed a trace of satisfaction in his eyes, giving Leng Ming a meaningful glance.

Leng Ming got the hint and hugged Zhou Liecheng’s neck, inviting: ”Come on, let’s have some fun together!”

Without waiting for Zhou Liecheng to respond, Leng Ming, still holding onto his neck, headed for the door.

”This cheeky kid!”

Pu Liang glared at Leng Ming reproachfully, then turned to Zhou Wenchang: ”Brother Zhou, please don’t take it to heart.”

”It’s okay, it’s good for the young ones to have their fun!” Zhou Wenchang responded with a light chuckle.

”Then we’ll head out first!”

”Grandfather, we are going out!”

The younger generation bowed with fists clasped and walked out together from the loft.

Right behind the Yue Family’s loft complex was the mountain; Jiang Chen and others went straight up, and soon reached the mountain’s peak.

”Looking down from here, the scenery below the mountain is truly beautiful.” Dong Yu said with a light laugh, turning her head to glance at Jiang Chen by her side, a hint of affection visible in her eyes.

”If the scenery below is beautiful, why did we run to the mountain top? Wouldn’t it have been fine just watching from below?” Leng Ming, confused, looked at Dong Yu.

Dong Yu was slightly startled, with three black lines sprouting on her forehead, she gave Leng Ming a glare.

”The scenery down there is beautiful, but you can’t see it from below because when you’re also down there, various things obstruct your view, just like when you encounter issues, you think subjectively rather than trying to step back and see the whole picture!”

Jiang Chen spoke softly, turning his head to Zhou Liecheng: ”Young Master Zhou, what do you think?”

”Me?”

Zhou Liecheng was slightly startled, his thoughts stirring as he stared straight into Jiang Chen’s eyes.

Jiang Chen softly said, ”I wonder if Young Master Zhou’s vision is obscured while down there, or if he’s observing the scenery from the mountain.”

”I... I haven’t had my eyes obscured, nor am I watching the scenery from the mountain!”

Zhou Liecheng’s heart trembled fiercely, he deeply looked at Jiang Chen, smiled wryly, his expression turning slightly somber as he gazed down the mountain, ”Although the scenery below is beautiful, you only see the beauty and fail to notice the dirt hidden beneath it. When this dirt reveals its true face, it directly contaminates the beautiful view.”

”Then, remove the filth and retain only the beauty!” Jiang Chen looked steadily into Zhou Liecheng’s eyes, surmising in his heart.

”No, you guys...” Leng Ming looked on baffled at Jiang Chen and the others.

”Don’t talk!” Spirit You pulled on Leng Ming, quietly cautioning him.

Dong Yu and others were momentarily stunned, glancing at Spirit You in confusion, then looking towards Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen, however, paid them no heed, continuing to observe Zhou Liecheng’s expression, realizing from his words that Zhou Liecheng must have understood his point.

Zhou Liecheng also turned to look at Jiang Chen, a helpless look in his eyes, ”No one wants to keep the filth, but there’s no way not to keep it. If you remove it, you’ll destroy the good along with it!”

”Is there really some dirt below the mountain that, if removed, would affect the beauty?” Jiang Chen probed.

Zhou Liecheng’s expression changed, he hurriedly said, ”No! A little dirt can cause a whole lake of black water, and once that black water spills over, all that is beautiful will be destroyed!”

”Is it that serious? This black water is so powerful?” Jiang Chen slightly furrowed his brow.

Zhou Liecheng gave a dispirited smile, then looked at Jiang Chen with hopeful eyes: ”Mr. Jiang, in previous ancestral ceremonies, the Yue Family was led by Elder Yue. I wonder if this year the Zhou Family has the honor of having Ancestor Yue grace us with his presence?”

Jiang Chen’s eyes suddenly changed, his eyebrows tightly furrowed, he spoke seriously: ”Does your Zhou Family have such a big face? Do you also want the supreme elder of the Huangluo Clan to attend too?”

”If the supreme elder could come too, that would be even better. This ancestral ceremony might also serve as the ceremony for the transfer of the Family Head position. Of course, I hope that two highly esteemed predecessors can come and witness it!” Zhou Liecheng spoke with a smiling face.

”The transfer ceremony?”

”What transfer ceremony?”

”Young Master Zhou, what do you mean by that?”

Yue Zhenfeng and others inquired doubtfully.

”Alright, let’s not talk more. I hope Mr. Jiang can honor us with his presence when the time comes. My eyes are a bit uncomfortable, so I’ll be leaving first. As for the rest of you, it’s inconvenient and unnecessary!”

Zhou Liecheng glanced at Dong Yu and others, then turned and walked toward the foot of the mountain.

”What does he mean by that? What does he mean by unnecessary? Is he looking down on us?” Lou Qiangqiang spoke indignantly, glaring fiercely at the back of Zhou Liecheng.

Jiang Chen lowered his head and pondered for a moment, scanned the surroundings, then turned to look in the direction behind the mountain. A subtle energy welled up within him, probing the area.

Hum!

A faint aura emerged, and two figures suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Chen and others.

”Ancestor!”

”Greetings to Ancestor Yue! Ancestor Lan!”

”Salutations to Ancestor Yue! Ancestor Lan!”

Yue Zhenfeng and the others were taken aback and hurriedly bowed and paid their respects.

”Mr. Jiang, is there something you need?” Ancestor Yue looked at Jiang Chen doubtfully, sensing that Jiang Chen had deliberately pressured them with his aura just now.

”Oh, sorry, I was just trying to discuss some matters with them, and see if there were any people around. I didn’t mean to startle you two seniors, my apologies!” Jiang Chen clasped his fists and bowed apologetically.

”Unintentional?” Ancestor Lan paused, looking at Jiang Chen with a puzzled expression.

Jiang Chen’s eyes flickered, glancing around.

The two ancestors paused, looking at Jiang Chen puzzledly.

Feeling somewhat helpless, Jiang Chen thought for a moment and spoke softly, ”Ancestor Yue, could you do me a favor? I need to discuss some acquisition matters concerning the company, and these involve business secrets. It’s not that I don’t trust others, but I want to avoid unnecessary troubles. Could you please emit your aura to shield this area? I will certainly offer a generous reward to the Yue Family!”

”Reward? Jiang...” Ancestor Yue frowned, a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

”Ancestor, please help Mr. Jiang. After all, he is my boss!” Yue Zhenfeng seemed to understand something, and quickly interrupted Ancestor Yue.

Ancestor Yue looked at Yue Zhenfeng with a surprised glance, his expression subtly changing.

Hum!

A faint yet profound aura spread, covering the area where Jiang Chen and the others were.

Hum!

A slight aura flashed by and quickly disappeared.

Hmm?

Ancestor Yue’s expression changed, turning his head to look in one direction.

”Ancestor Yue, is there really someone?” Jiang Chen, noticing the anomaly in Ancestor Yue, spoke softly.

Ancestor Yue was taken aback for a moment, then tentatively said: ”Did you sense someone nearby, so you asked me to shield the area?”
