Master Head of the Dragon Soul

Chapter 213

Zhou Lie smiled with a pipe in his mouth. “Chu Feng pointed at Li Dafu and threatened to kill him if he refused to write down his crimes, surrender himself to the police to return you your dignity. Chu Feng even asked Li Dafu to bet on whether a juvenile like him would be charged with murder if he did kill him.”

With her hands under her chin, Zhou Ying’s eyes reddened with tears of gratitude when she heard this.

She was deeply moved by what Chu Feng did for her. Suddenly, she burst into laughter when she thought of Li Dafu, who stood over 190 centimeters tall and weighed over 200 pounds, got scared out of his wits by the weak and skinny Chu Feng holding a kitchen knife in his hand.

She realized that her older brother, Chu Feng, had always protected and cared for her.

“So, what happened next?”

Zhou Lie continued, “Later, Li Dafu had no choice but to admit his crime and surrender himself to the police. That’s why the police could easily solve the case. But the rich and powerful Li Family would not simply let Chu Feng off the hook. Using their connections, they accused Chu Feng of robbery and murder. To avoid prosecution, I had to send Chu Feng away into the army at night under careful arrangement, which was why he left quietly. In order to keep the matter a secret, I never told anyone about this before. So, now you know why he left in silence ten years ago without leaving any note.”

As Zhou Ying stared in shock with her mouth opened, Zhou Lie sighed and continued, “Before he joined the army, he promised me that he would achieve great success so as not to disappoint me and his family; and that he would be able to protect his family with his own power. And he did it!” Zhou Lie’s voice trembled as tears rolled down his cheek.

Now, his son, Chu Feng, became a mighty General who wore a Python Printed Robe with four stars on his shoulder. The honor and power Chu Feng possessed was exceptional within the country; few people could even hope to rival that!

Realizing the truth, Zhou Ying could not hold back her tears and it rolled down her cheeks quietly. So, this is the truth! Chu Feng had done so much and sacrificed so much for me! All these years, he hasn't changed one bit!

Suddenly, Zhou Ying pushed the door open and ran outside. Outside of the house, Chu Feng gazed at the stars in the sky while sitting on the door sill with a wine bottle in his hand.

Touched, Zhou Ying threw herself into Chu Feng’s arms without second thoughts. Like a little kitten, she remained in Chu Feng’s warm embrace.

“What are you doing? Are you drunk?” Slightly puzzled, Chu Feng said helplessly, “You are an adult now, quit acting like a spoiled kid and let go of me.” Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“I won’t let go.” Zhou Ying pouted her lips. Her eyes reddened as she held Chu Feng tightly. A smile of happiness crossed her pretty face.

Chu Feng smiled faintly. He realized Zhou Lie had told Zhou Ying about the real reason he joined the army ten years ago.

He grinned. “Who would marry you if someone sees you like this?”

“Then, I’ll remain single for the rest of my life!” Zhou Ying blushed while enjoying being in Chu Feng’s embrace. “I’m going to stay with you forever!”

Chu Feng chuckled. “You silly girl.”

The moonlight shone brightly in the sky, casting a radiant light on Chu Feng and Zhou Ying, covering them like a piece of luminous white chiffon; they looked happy and harmonized together.

Zhou Lie and his wife were observing the duo quietly from a place not far from them. Both of them were very glad and happy that Chu Feng and Zhou Ying finally opened up to each other and got along well.

“Oh look, they look great together, like a nice couple.” Liu Minglan’s eyes flickered with excitement. She suggested, “Hey old man, do you think it’s possible that Chu Feng and our daughter will—”

“Nope, it’s impossible. You should forget about it. Like I said before, Feng likes Yingying as his younger sibling, not as a lover. He doesn’t love Yingying. Don’t simply match our daughter up with Feng!” Smoking his pipe, Zhou Lie continued, “Besides, our daughter is not good enough for Feng anymore, based on his current status and identity.”

Reality saddened Liu Minglan. Indeed, Chu Feng was currently a mighty General, of course her daughter would not be good enough for such a prominent figure!

Then, Liu Minglan pursed her lips and snorted, “He is a General. So what? He is still my son. I want him to get married as soon as possible and give me some grandchildren!”

Liu Minglan was upset by Zhou Ying’s failed marriage, so she turned her attention and hope to Chu Feng instead.

“Even if Feng and Yingying can’t be together, there’s still a lot of nice girls in Jiangling! Tomorrow, I’ll arrange some blind dates for him and then we can choose among the girls.” Excitement flashed through Liu Minglan’s eyes as she was contemplating which girl was gentle and kind with a healthy physique that would help in producing a grandson for the family.

After spending a night at the house with the Zhou Family, Chu Feng woke up really early in the morning next day as part of his usual habit and routine. He went jogging around the Plum Blossom Village. While practicing martial arts, Chu Feng quietly observed the small village and reminisced about his happy childhood moments. He could feel the development and changes around the small village.

It had been ten years since he left the village and a lot had changed since his departure. The only thing that remained unchanged was the love of his parents. Since the beginning, they treated him nicely as if he was their own son. Father, mother, your son had returned all grown up. I’ll respect you and repay your kindness for taking care of me all these twenty years.
