We are from the future ark

"Go ahead, I'll see how you explain it."

"Wenyue, we have been married for so many years, and have gone through so many ups and downs. Do you think I would do something that would let you down?"

Finally having the chance to speak, Wei Yanwu directly threw out the words he had already thought of a long time ago. As the ruler of Longmen, he spoke with confidence and was very convincing.

"I, Wei Yanwu, swear on my life that if I ever do anything to let you down in this life, I will be struck by lightning."

"Tsk, if swearing worked, you would have been struck by lightning long ago."

However, Wen Yue's words were a bit harsh at this time. Perhaps it was the first time in history that she was so angry. In addition, there were no outsiders around, so Wen Yue really did not intend to save face for Wei Yanwu.

As a person who has come out of the political arena, who doesn't have blood on his hands? If the God of this world could really respond to the oath, these people would have been struck by lightning and sent to hell long ago.

Swearing is a trick that only people at the lower levels can use. For those in a higher position like them, apart from expressing their opinions, it can basically be treated as bullshit.

"What I want is a well-reasoned explanation, Wei Yanwu, don't force me to repeat our original family rules."

"I see."

Wei Yanwu also wiped the cold sweat from his forehead calmly, then said while smoking:

"Wen Yue, that little girl, obviously, is indeed a person with the orthodox bloodline of the imperial family of Yan Country."

"I have to admit that among all the people in Yan Country who are capable and old enough to have a child this old, apart from my brother, I am the most suspicious."

"...What do you mean?" Wen Yue frowned slightly, as if she had noticed the problem.

"I think there are only two possibilities." Wei Yanwu was relieved to see Wen Yue finally listen to the explanation, but he remained extremely serious on the surface and did not dare to relax at all as he answered:

"The first possibility is that this little girl is indeed the child of my brother who was having an affair outside. The reason why she fled to Rhodes Island is probably because something happened. It is very likely that she was being hunted or was infected with Originium disease, which is why she came to Rhodes Island."

A person of legitimate bloodline, and someone who could potentially compete for the throne, had an affair outside and had a daughter. If this matter were to spread, it would definitely be a laughing stock of the royal family. Therefore, if this girl was really like that, then it did not seem incomprehensible that she had come to Rhodes Island.

"But, if this is true, then how dare Rhodes Island take her in?" Wen Yue also pointed out the most fatal flaw in this speculation.

If this girl was really a royal scandal, then there is no reason why she would have escaped to Rhodes Island and not been killed, especially when her identity was known to someone in Yan Country.

What's more, it would be useless even if she escaped to Rhodes Island. Even if she hid her identity, with the means of Yan Country, let alone assassination, even the destruction of Rhodes Island would be a piece of cake. How could she survive until now?

This possibility is too low, much lower than the possibility of Longmen being destroyed.

"...Then, there is only the second possibility left."

Wei Yanwu nodded upon hearing this, and then said calmly:

"Wenyue, do you still remember the identity of the person called Chen Qi that we guessed?"

"...You mean..." Wen Yue was slightly stunned, then suddenly thought of something and spoke with a little surprise.

"That's right." Wei Yanwu nodded, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "It's very likely that they came from the same place, just as we guessed."

"...but why would he take the initiative to expose himself?" Wen Yue was still a little confused. By doing so, wouldn't it just confirm their guess? Wasn't this a case of trying to cover up one's own guilt?

"Humph, this kid is warning us."

Upon hearing this, Wei Yanwu snorted harmlessly, and said with a strange smile on his beastly face:

"He is using this little girl's identity to warn us. He knows everything about us and Longmen, and told us not to attack him again or try to find out about him."

"He always knows more inside information than us, and the lifeline he holds is beyond our imagination."

"He took the initiative to expose himself, which was in line with our wishes, but it also told us that we could not continue to know more."

This time, Old Wei just wanted to trick Chen Qi, but he didn't expect that before he even started, Chen Qi would pull such a hot potato over and destroy all of Old Wei's plans. It can be said that he was ruthless.

Although this kid is young and doesn't like killing people, he is really good at destroying people's hearts.

"...I will inform everyone to give up the intelligence investigation on Rhodes Island." Wei Yanwu took a puff of cigarette and said lightly: "We already know enough now. If we learn more...we may really lose Rhodes Island as an ally."

"They may not have been outstanding before, but now... everything they know must not be passed on to others."

"……I see."

Wen Yue also understood, and all her emotions disappeared. After thinking quietly for a moment, she nodded at Wei Yanwu.

He even smiled faintly and said to Wei Yanwu: "I'm sorry, I seem to have misunderstood you."

"It's okay." Wei Yanwu also smiled, and his expression looked much more relaxed as he smoked.

"...So, can I get up now?"

"Ah."

After getting Wen Yue's nod, Wei Yanwu breathed a sigh of relief and finally got up from the washboard that almost broke his knee.

"Oh... I'm so old. I can't stand even half an hour of tossing and turning."

It has been a long time since I last knelt like this, and Lao Wei suddenly felt that he was no longer able to do it. The pain was familiar, but the consumption was of a different kind.

"So, that girl is..."

"Wen Yue, it seems that we will have a chance to unload these burdens in the future."

Wei Yanwu also revealed a smile and gently put his arm around Wen Yue's waist. He felt Wen Yue's body stiffen slightly. Obviously, she was not used to such intimate contact.

Even Wei Yanwu himself had forgotten how long it had been since they had hugged each other like this.

"Wen Yue, if one day in the future we can really unload these burdens, we can find a place far away from disputes and live the lives of ordinary citizens."

"Looking at that child, I am now... a little impatient."

Wei Yanwu said this, and Wen Yue was silent for a moment, then gently lay down in Wei Yanwu's arms.

If you think about it carefully... Wei Siyue... this name is really a good one.

Thinking of this, the last trace of doubt in Wen Yue's heart completely disappeared, and even a sweet smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Ah!"

At this time, Wei Siyue, who had followed all the way to the roof of Wei Yanwu's residence and witnessed this scene, sneezed violently.

"...Why is Longmen so cold?" Wei Siyue said faintly, with a tone that carried some meaning that even she herself did not understand.

Chapter 119: Longmen’s brief warmth

After the second day, all the farces were overcome without any major incidents. Many people in the Guards Bureau felt a very strange atmosphere, but those who were unaware of the situation did not know how to describe it.

However, Shi Huaiya, who had been waiting for a fallout yesterday, did not receive any signal from Chen in the end. It was not until midnight, when she was almost drowsy, that she received Chen's call.

However, Chen just said, "temporarily suspend it."

This left Shi Huaiya with a lot of question marks in her head. She was already prepared to bring a group of people from the Royal Guard Bureau to protest, but she didn't expect to be told to temporarily suspend the protest?

What does it mean? Did Wei Yanwu compromise, or did Lao Chen compromise?

However, before Shi Huaiya had the chance to ask all of this, the phone was hung up. After that, Shi Huaiya called back, but Chen did not answer, which made Shi Huaiya a little at a loss as to what to do.

Then, on the next day, the Imperial Guard Bureau received a notice from Wei Yanwu regarding the issue of how to deal with Xingxiong.

"After a detailed discussion with Rhodes Island, Longmen's Supreme Ruler Wei Yanwu made the following decision on Xingxiong:

Inspector Hoshiguma privately fought against Rhodes Island members and used highly lethal attack methods, which seriously violated the regulations of the Lungmen Guard Bureau and should have been severely punished.

After consultation, with the understanding of the highest commander of Rhodes Island and the parties involved, and considering that no casualties were caused, a lenient punishment was given. "

Subsequently, the penalty clauses were added: temporary dismissal, demotion by three levels, and a fine of three months’ salary. The decision will be made based on the attitude of admitting mistakes and repenting.

To put it bluntly, you will first work as a low-level policeman for three months to avoid the limelight, and then depending on Wei Yanwu's mood, he will transfer you back.

Such a result made everyone in the Guard Bureau stunned, but at the same time, they breathed a sigh of relief. This meant that Xingxiong would be fine, and Wei Yanwu had already given in.

This was the result they wanted. Everyone in the Guards Bureau breathed a sigh of relief and cheered and celebrated.

When Xingxiong received the notice and returned to the Guard Bureau in a daze, she was surrounded by a group of colleagues and juniors from the Guard Bureau, and was thrown high up, cheering for their victory.

This was the first time that Xingxiong had been treated so warmly. If you didn't know, you might think that he was the hero who saved Longmen. However, this also shows that Xingxiong was indeed loved by many people in the Guards Bureau.

After seeing this scene, Chen Heshi Huaiya looked at each other in confusion and then gave a rare bitter smile.

In terms of being loved, the two senior superintendents also admitted that they were not as good as Xingxiong.

"Okay, Youzhagui, Fenchanglong and I have put in so much effort behind the scenes, you have to treat us today!" Shi Huaiya said this, and then he came over wagging his tiger tail and said unhappily:

"You have to reward us today. The Imperial Guard Bureau hasn't had a day off for a few days. Let's all have a day off today. Let Xingxiong treat us!"

"Shi Huaiya, my salary has been suspended." Xingxiong couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard that. If it was a normal treat, Xingxiong would definitely not blink an eye, but the situation is different now. She will have to work for three months for free.

Although Xingxiong has some savings, it is just what he saved from his daily frugality. It's barely enough for him to drink, so hiring an entire guard bureau is really nonsense.

However, Shi Huaiya waved his hand and said happily:

"That's right! You treat me, I'll pay the bill!"

"Let's go to the hotel my family owns! You can't leave today unless you get drunk, Xingxiong!"

"——Hahaha! That's great!" Xingxiong was slightly stunned, then he burst into laughter and said generously: "Okay! But don't drink like last time and fall under the table."

"Good fellow! You fried ghost! You actually laughed at me?! I don't know who was the one who called me to redeem me last time when I didn't bring any money when I was drinking!"

After arguing with Xingxiong, Shi Huaiya said with a smile on her face:

"By the way, should we treat Wei Yanwu to a drink? He actually agreed so readily. I misunderstood him before."

"—I don't think so."

At this moment, Chen, who had been silent, suddenly spoke. Facing the confused looks from Xingxiong and Shi Huaiya, an inexplicable and subtle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"...Commander Wei, he may be having some trouble with family matters lately, so I think we should not bother him."

"Huh? Family affairs? Wei Yanwu made his wife angry again?" Shi Huaiya said this inexplicably. After all, her father was also an old friend of Wei Yanwu. Therefore, Shi Huaiya knew something about Old Wei's family affairs.

However, Shi Huaiya didn't care, but after thinking about it, he said:

"Then, let's invite the people from Rhodes Island to come along. After all, they have interceded for Xingxiong. If we don't invite them to show our condolences, it would make us, the Longmen Guards, look petty."

"——I think it's okay." Xingxiong nodded immediately after hearing that, and before Chen could react, he ran out.

"I'll go inform the people in Rhodes Island! Remember to tell me the location you've chosen!"

"Hey! Fried ghost! What are you in such a hurry for?!"

Behind him, Shi Huaiya looked at the running Xing Xiong with some confusion, and whispered: "This guy is running so fast, does he have an old lover in Rhodes Island?"

……

Meanwhile, in Wei Yanwu's residence, just as Chen had said before, things were indeed getting a bit lively due to household chores.

However, he didn't seem as anxious as expected.

In the morning, breakfast was already prepared at Wei Yanwu's home, but this time, Wei Yanwu's breakfast seemed to be much richer than before.

Normally the breakfast would not have more than five dishes, but today a whole table was set with them. At first glance, it looked like all of Longmen’s snacks were placed on the table.

Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue also came to the table and sat down. After checking that there were no other figures around, Wei Yanwu coughed a few times and said lightly:

"Since we are here, let's have some Longmen morning tea."

"…Tsk, I didn't dodge it."

Following a female voice, a graceful figure slowly landed in front of the two of them.

The person who came was Wei Siyue. She touched her dragon horn, looked at Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue in front of her helplessly, and said slowly:

"I'm a professional at stealth. How did you find me, Lao Wei?"

"Your stealth is indeed good for the younger generation, but it can't fool the intuition of an old man like me." Wei Yanwu smiled slightly when he heard it, tapped the table with his pipe, and pointed his finger at his pupils.

"Sometimes, don't just look with your eyes, but feel more."

"……Can't understand."

Wei Siyue was slightly stunned when she heard this, but after thinking about it carefully, she gave up. This thing was too mysterious.

However, Wei Siyue didn't think much about it, and just turned over and sat down. Her agile posture made Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue's eyes light up.

Wei Yanwu is a veteran on the battlefield. Although Wen Yue has no fighting ability, as a princess of the East Country, she has naturally seen a lot. Wei Siyue's speed and posture just now are not inferior to many of the family guards she has seen.

For a moment, there was a hint of loving pride in Wen Yue's eyes when she looked at Wei Siyue; and on the side, Old Wei even did not hide his smile.

"Let's eat." Old Wei put down his pipe and said to the two of them.

"Xiao Wei, have some of this rice noodle. This one in Longmen makes the best rice noodles."
