Chapter 316: Magnificent Fireworks for Yanyan
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
As Nan Yan listened to the second elder’s account, she quickly pieced together the timeline.
A year after she had left, Fu Yubai completed his apprenticeship and chose to return to the family.
Upon returning from Shennongjia, Fu Yubai was devastated to see the precarious state of the Fu family, on the verge of collapse. He couldn’t bear to witness the family’s centuries-old legacy crumble so easily.
Therefore, he took control of the Fu family’s management, implementing bold reforms to make the family adapt to society and absorb the advantages of modern life, ultimately saving the Fu family from fading away into the annals of time.
However, the deep – rooted decay within the Fu family, accumulated over centuries, had created numerous issues that transformed into burdens, all of which now rested solely on his shoulders.
He had to bear the weight of the entire Fu family’s legacy alone, without anyone to share his burden. There was no one to support him, and they did nothing but hinder his efforts.
Instead of offering him assistance when he fell ill, they aimed to usurp his power?
As the second elder spoke, Nan Yan’s aura grew colder and more menacing by the moment.
This was how they had treated her Third Senior Brother, allowing him to become so debilitated. After he fell ill, they not only neglected to seek medical treatment for him but also plotted to seize power?
The second elder spoke nervously, his voice parched, frequently stealing glances at Nan Yan.
Once he finished recounting everything, he anxiously asked, “I’ve told you everything. Shouldn’t you release me according to our agreement?”
In just ten short minutes, he felt Nan Yan’s presence had grown significantly stronger than before.
He couldn’t even summon the courage to meet her gaze.
Nan Yan’s eyes gleamed with a chilly fierceness as she responded, “You should count yourself lucky that my Third Senior Brother can still be saved. Otherwise, I’d make the entire Fu family accompany him to the grave!”
She snorted and recalled something, directing a gaze full of killing intent towards him. “Was Fu Yunhai sent by you?”
The second elder quivered under the weight of her murderous intent, his face as pale as a sheet of paper. He desperately wished to lower his head to the ground, refusing to answer Nan Yan’s question. Even if he didn’t speak, his reaction confirmed her suspicions.
“Brother, let’s go,” Nan Yan said, her curiosity satisfied.
After all the necessary questions had been answered, she had no desire to remain here any longer. This underground chamber was stuffy, and the air smelled unpleasant.
“Alright,” Qin Lu replied, standing up and naturally taking her small hand.
“Let us out, please, let us out!” As Nan Yan and Qin Lu began to leave, the guards in the room transformed from impassive statues into desperate supplicants, crying and pleading for their release.
“Keep them locked up, and halve their food rations from now on,” Qin Lu’s words instantly drove the group of people in the underground chamber to the brink of madness.
Already starving each day, the meager portion of food they received was barely enough to sustain them. Now, with their rations cut in half, were they supposed to starve to death?
As they reached the door, Nan Yan didn’t turn back but uttered in a calm tone, “You’d better pray that my Third Senior Brother recovers soon. Only when he decides to release you can you leave this place.”
The second elder was left in shock.
As they emerged from the underground chamber, Qin Lu noticed that the young girl’s complexion didn’t look too good.
He gently squeezed Nan Yan’s delicate, boneless hand and softly asked, “Yanyan, are you upset?”
Nan Yan denied it, saying, “No, I’m just feeling a bit down.”
Qin Lu chuckled in resignation. “Feeling down isn’t the same as being upset, right?”
“It’s different…
Nan Yan was simply indignant on behalf of her Third Senior Brother.
He sacrificed his own body in exchange for the family, but the family that he had gained in return seemed ungrateful, even plotting to seize power while he was weakened.
What kind of family would make him feel so desolate?
“Since Yanyan is feeling down, let’s do something to cheer you up,” Qin Lu suggested, gently rubbing her head and affectionately asking, “It’s already around 10 PM. How about we do something to lift your spirits and I’ll take you home around 11?”
Nan Yan paused for a moment before nodding. “Sure, no rush.”
Whether she returned home early or late, it made no difference to her. Grandpa An, who knew she was with Qin Lu, was always confident in her safety.
Curious about where Qin Lu wanted to take her to improve her mood, Nan Yan asked, “So, where do you want to take me to make me feel better?”
She was a little curious about where Qin Lu wanted to take her to make her feel better.
Back at the car, Qin Lu asked Nan Yan to get in first and then stepped aside, seemingly making a phone call.
Nan Yan didn’t eavesdrop; she knew that surprises were more effective when kept secret until the right moment.
Three minutes later, Qin Lu got into the car.
Nan Yan lounged lazily in her seat, lightly stroking the seatbelt that was fastened across her chest, and casually asked, “Big Brother, where do you want to take me?”
Qin Lu fastened his seatbelt and smiled softly. “Let’s keep a bit of mystery.” “All right,” she said, her anticipation growing.
The car started, and they drove for about twenty minutes before stopping in the suburbs. It was close to 11 PM, which meant they had just over half an hour left. It would take another twenty minutes to get back to the old house. It seemed that Qin Lu had only allotted her about fifteen minutes.
She was curious about how Qin Lu planned to make her happy.
As they got out of the car, Nan Yan felt something heavy on her shoulders. She turned to see Qin Lu’s suit jacket draped over her shoulders. He was wearing only a white shirt, standing tall and handsome beside her, his eyes filled with tenderness.
Qin Lu gently rubbed her cheek and smiled, “Yanyan, don’t look at me. Look up at the sky.”
Nan Yan wanted to say, “Why look at the sky when looking at you is better?” After all, she could never get tired of looking at his face. However, even with that thought in her mind, she followed his suggestion and looked up at the sky.
It was a clear night, and the stars shone brightly, appearing large and luminous in the sky.
In the suburbs, there were no tall buildings to obstruct the view, providing an expansive and unobstructed view of the night skyline. It looked quite beautiful. However, Nan Yan still thought that Qin Lu looked even more beautiful.
Just as she was about to say something, there was a thunderous sound that pierced the sky, followed by a streak of light swiftly ascending into the sky. Then, it burst into a brilliant fireworks display!
One, two, and then more fireworks shot into the sky, illuminating a large part of the night sky with colorful bursts. In the darkness, it was a beautiful and magnificent sight, creating a scene of prosperity and beauty.
Nan Yan was mesmerized. Most of her life had been spent in busyness and enclosed spaces, and she had never had the chance to see so many fireworks. It was truly beautiful!
Her previously gloomy mood was instantly replaced with radiance upon seeing these fireworks. Her face showed uncontrollable surprise, her lips curled up, and her eyes sparkled.
Qin Lu, who had been watching her all along, leaned in close to her ear and asked softly, “Yanyan, do you like it?” Nan Yan nodded, “Yes! I really like it!”
She genuinely liked it!
The bad mood she had before seemed to dissipate along with these fireworks.
Nan Yan grabbed Qin Lu’s hand and smiled sweetly, “Brother, thank you!”
“I don’t like those three words,” Qin Lu’s eyes darkened, and the depths of his gaze seemed like a vortex, trying to draw her attention deep within. “Yanyan, instead of those three words, I’d rather hear you say another three words.”
Nan Yan was slightly puzzled, “Which three words?”
