Legendary Wife - C63 Heirs
Mei Chuanqi turned around with the child in his arms and saw a man wearing a white suit and a white mask with long flaxen hair tied into a ponytail stood behind him. Mei Chuanqi then took the child in his hands very casually, “Chuanqi, congratulations on getting out of jail.”
Mei Chuanqi smiled sincerely, “Uncle Ang, long time no see.”
The Uncle Ang he called out was his teacher, Ang Si, who had trained him back then, and was also the ancestor’s personal bodyguard. It was said that he had followed the ancestor for more than two hundred years, and was extremely loyal to the ancestor.
To him, Ang Si was just like his other father. Other than seriously teaching him, he also gave him care and warmth from his own father. As a result, the two of them were like father and son, very close.
On top of Ang Si’s ice-cold mask, Mei Ri gave a kiss: “Grandpa An, good!”
“Weiwei, good.” Ang Si smiled as he handed Weiwei a candy. After that, he said while looking at Mei Chuanqi: “Since you’ve not seen me for a long time, why don’t you come and see me after you’re out of jail?”
As he spoke, there was no complaint in his tone.
Mei Chuanqi laughed: “Didn’t I come to see you now?”
He did not immediately rush over to see Ang Si, because Ang Si had always been by the Old Ancestor’s side everyday. When he came to see Ang Si, he would definitely meet the Old Ancestor. However, with his current situation, he had no face to meet the old ancestor.
Ang Si looked to Mei Chuanqi’s side and asked doubtfully: “Why are you not seeing Yunqing?”
Mei Chuanqi looked at his son who was in Ang Si’s embrace. “She’s not feeling well, he’s resting at home.”
With that, he received the disdainful gaze from his son.
Ang Si did not doubt him: “Come, come with me to see Master.”
He carried the child into the villa.
Mei Chuanqi hesitated for a moment, before following behind Ang Si.
Inside the main hall, the juniors of Mei Family lined up to present their birthday presents to the elders in the main seats, their mouths full of auspicious birthday presents.
The elder on the main seat was dressed in a black suit with a gold dragon embroidered on it. He had handsome facial features, and his eyes were sharp and strict. With just a slight sweep of his gaze, he had already made the legs of the younger generation tremble.
Mei Feichen expressionlessly looked at the juniors sending him his congratulatory gift and heard from the juniors. An impatient look flashed past his eyes as he looked towards the gate. When he saw the figure of a person walking in through the gate, an unfathomable ray of light flashed past his calm, waveless eyes.
The moment Mei Chuanqi entered, he saw Mei Feichen sitting on the sofa in the center of the hall. Behind him, there were ten guards dressed in the same attire as Ang Si.
There were nearly a thousand guards like that by Mei Feichen’s side, and normally, all of them were wearing masks and did not reveal their true forms. Even the Ang Si who was closest to him, he had never seen his true appearance before.
The juniors who were congratulating the Old Ancestor on his birthday realized that the Old Ancestor had been staring at the door. They turned around, and saw Ang Si walking over with Mei Chuanqi in his arms, while leading Mei Chuanqi around.
Everyone’s expression changed as they started to whisper to each other.
“His skin is really thick, making all his Mei Family lose face, and he still has the nerve to come and congratulate the Old Ancestor.”
“How could there be someone like him in our Mei Family? Putting aside the matter of running away from the battlefield, no matter which one it is, neither of our genes or our body strength meet the standards of our Mei Family. If it wasn’t for the fact that his appearance is similar to the Patriarch, General Mei, I would almost suspect that General Mei carried the wrong child back then.”
Mei Chuanqi acted as if he did not hear everyone’s whispers, and his gaze directly met Mei Feichen’s, causing his mood to immediately become extremely complicated.
When a person with Mei Family faced Mei Feichen, they would only feel reverence, but he was different. In front of Mei Feichen, there was even a hint of unwillingness, and their minds were filled with thoughts of surpassing this person.
Even if his genetic fitness could not compare to Mei Feichen, as long as he saw this person, his determination to surpass him would increase every single time. He did not want Mei Feichen to look down on him, even if he had already fallen to the status of a deserter.
Mei Chuanqi came before Mei Feichen while holding his birthday present, “Wishing the old ancestor luck as great as the East Sea, his life as long as Nanshan. “Year after year, there is today. Year after year, there is today.”
With that, he immediately prepared himself and accepted the scorn and ridicule from the Old Ancestor.
Mei Feichen stared at him for a long while before personally receiving the gift. Then he said indifferently: “Stay here for lunch at noon.”
Surprise flashed past Mei Chuanqi’s eyes.
In the past, whenever Mei Feichen saw him, he would either ignore his existence or give him a hard time.
But now, not only did Mei Feichen personally receive the birthday present, he didn’t even say anything unpleasant to hear, nor did he reveal a look full of contempt.
Mei Chuanqi thanked the Old Ancestor for his invitation and left the hall with Ang Si under the envious gaze of the crowd. After that, they found a quiet place and talked about their lives in Black Prison.
The two chatted until it was time for lunch.
There were more than thirty people who were left behind by the Old Ancestor for lunch. They were all arranged to sit at a table that was over ten meters long in the main hall.
Mei Chuanqi intentionally distanced himself from the old ancestor, and brought his son to the end of the table, and started to chat and laugh softly.
At the other end of the table, there was a solemn discussion about the mecha training. It was intense, and everyone wanted to have a chance to show off in front of the Old Ancestor.
This meal ended from noon until the start of the night’s banquet. Mei Chuanqi brought the child back to the main house to change into a set of formal attire before heading to the courtyard where the guests were entertained.
It was now eight in the evening, and the guests had almost all arrived. The previously empty courtyard was now bustling with noise and excitement.
When Mei Chuanqi brought his son into the courtyard, the passionate voices immediately quieted down. Everyone looked at Mei Chuanqi with disdain and started to talk about what happened at the supermarket in a low voice.
“Chuanqi.”
Jian Yi, Lian Zeyang and Zhuo Jun who were standing under a big tree and chatting, walked over with a smile.
Mei greeted the uncles politely, then looked up and said, “Dad, I’m going to find someone else to play with.”
Mei Chuanqi scanned the courtyard and nodded when he saw his partner who usually played with Mei Ri well.
Seeing that the child had left, Jian Yi immediately gave Mei Chuanqi a look to inquire about the results of yesterday’s examination.
Mei Chuanqi wanted to say something, but a commotion sounded out at the entrance of the courtyard, causing everyone to look towards the door.
Three men walked into the courtyard. Among them, the deep black eyes of the man walking at the very front flashed with a cold and sharp aura, and the calm eyes that seemed to hide a sharp eagle-like gaze, coupled with a handsome face that seemed to have a carved outline, made him seem even more threatening. His determined thin lips faintly opened, and spoke to the people behind him, causing the people around him to not dare to get too close, but at the same time, tightly attracting everyone’s gazes.
Someone recognized them with his sharp eyes and shouted in shock, “It’s Colonel Feng Feng Jingteng!”
Immediately, the entire courtyard started to boil with excitement, as long as it was a single man or woman who had not gotten married, they would all be ready to make their move, doing everything they could to find an opportunity to get close to Feng Jingteng.
Standing under the tree in the corner, Mei Chuanqi’s gaze could not help but follow the direction of Feng Jingteng’s figure.
He felt a sense of alienation from Feng Jingteng in front of him, which made him feel very unfamiliar, but also made him feel that it was difficult to get close to him.
Lian Zeyang suddenly opened his mouth and said: “Other than the last time Feng Jingteng had come to the banquet where he acknowledged his ancestors and met Feng Jingteng, not many people knew what he looked like. However, after what happened in the supermarket, there were already people who exposed that the person protecting Chuanqi was the global hero Feng Jingteng. This caused his popularity to decline rapidly, and many people were unhappy with his actions, thinking that he should not be protecting the people who despised him as a deserter. ”
Zhuo Jun and Jian Yi both looked at Mei Chuanqi with deep meaning in their eyes. “Our Brother Chuanqi is really charming.”
Mei Chuanqi rolled his eyes in annoyance.
“Chuanqi, don’t you want to explain?” Lian Zeyang ridiculed.
Mei Chuanqi saw Lian Zeyang’s suspicion, and a trace of hesitation surged in his heart. He thought about whether or not he should tell Lian Zeyang about him registering and marrying his.
Just at this moment, Mei Feichen walked into the courtyard under the escort of the guards, and everyone stepped forward to congratulate him.
Mei Feichen greeted the people around him as he walked in front of the stage’s microphone.
He raised his hand and everyone quieted down.
Mei Feichen indifferently swept his eyes across the guests and the Mei Family youngsters below: “Thank you everyone for finding the time to come and participate in my three hundred and ninety year birthday celebration. At the same time, I am very happy that I was still able to stand here and chat with everyone when I was three hundred and ninety years old …”
After that, he recited a large pile of lines he had prepared a long time ago, and only at the end did he come to the main point, “From the moment I stepped down from the position of general, I have always been in charge of training all the children of Mei Family. Even to this day, I can’t remember just how many disciples I taught by myself. But now that I am 390 years old, my body is no longer what it used to be. I can’t train hundreds or even thousands of people all by myself. So, I want to take advantage of the fact that I can still move, teach and train time to accept a successor. ”
As the sound of his voice faded, the entire courtyard burst into an uproar.
Everyone knew that the Old Ancestor was going to accept a closing disciple after the Mei Family test yesterday, but they didn’t think that the person he would accept would be a disciple.
A disciple was different from a disciple. While one could have many disciples, one could only have one disciple.
