Chapter 45: The Secret of the Seven Families (Part 2)

  This is Mihua Online Library, welcome to join the Mihua Book Friends family, let's soar in the ocean of words together and enjoy the ultimate pleasure.

  At midnight, seeing me sitting opposite him with my whole body on guard, he suddenly smiled lightly: "No need to be so tense, if my mother knew you were afraid of me like this, she would definitely blame me for not treating you well."

  I still didn't trust him and stared at him: "What do you want to tell me..."

  "Do you know your father's name?" Min Ye suddenly jumped out with this sentence, almost making me stupid.

  "Nonsense, how could I not know my father's name? It's Ruò Qiǎn, 'Ruò' is the 'Ruò' in my surname, and 'Qiǎn' is a 'Lian' with three drops of water on top." I gave someone a white eye.

  "So, you know your father is the pillar of our seven families?"

  "What?! Pillar?! He, he, he... Is he the legendary God of Wealth?! My mind immediately flashed back to my dad wearing a bright red outfit standing at the door with a smile on his face, waving his hand repeatedly... Money come, money come, money come... Rice, flowers, books, warehouse?"

  The man's persistent smile finally began to falter: "No, Mr. Ruo is not the kind of person you think he is. (Author's note: Look, now even a tea can understand what's going on in his mind) In the beginning, our seven families were independent from each other, but some conflicts in business led to wars among the seven families (economically and otherwise). It was Mr. Ruo... who stopped the war between our seven families and brought us together into a unified situation that benefited all of us."

  I twitched the corner of my mouth... how did I feel that my old man was similar to a certain old thing, but it's just an old thing after all. Is it worth letting the seven big families' people worship him like that?

  "Those people are looking for something... and according to what you described, the person they're looking for should be about Mr. Ruo's information from ten years ago," Min Ye continued: "Xiao Cha, these things shouldn't have been told to you, neither my mother nor the current heads of the other seven families agree with me telling you this. But... since it has already happened, I can only tell you... your seven fiancés are me, Yase, Qi He Lan (the silver-haired boy), Kun Yue Xiao, the head of the Artistic Fragrance Department, and Xue Feng from the Next Month Aristocratic Academy (this person was originally forced by his parents to enter the Lanyang First Men's Aristocratic Academy, but ran away halfway)... and two others, one of whom is likely to be on the side of those people you just met... although our seven families have been very calm since Mr. Ruo's arrangement, not long after he left, one family began to stir up trouble again, I'm afraid it will break through these years of peace sooner or later... and your last fiancé... you should also know him."

  The last one is your fiancé... you should know him too.

  When I heard Min Ye say that, I was taken aback... I haven't been at this academy for long either... If I had to mention people I know, apart from the student council, it would be the members of the Xunhua department. As for those so-called younger brothers, I don't have much impression of them, let alone those other classmates who wouldn't be able to hold a conversation even after staying here for several years. Could they also be... people outside of Lan Luo Si Men's aristocratic academy? But anyway, what are my fiancés doing? Protecting this academy is more important now, right?

  I felt my originally puzzled gaze suddenly becoming calm again, Min Ye probably knew I had already thought of that place, and immediately inserted a sentence: "Don't think these have nothing to do with you, every heir of the seven families is closely watching you. Because if you can choose one of us, it means that person can become the representative of the seven families, and maybe find Mr. Ruo."

  Moreover, perhaps Mr. Ruo can be found.

  Moreover, perhaps Mr. Ruo can be found."

  Moreover, perhaps Mr. Ruo can be found."

  That last sentence was more devastating than a bomb and was thrown at my brain, it was a conditioned reflex that I brushed against the station and grabbed Min Ye's collar: "Is it you who wants to tell me... my great father nine years ago who disappeared unknowingly and later told by those unmarried husbands on your side that he had realized the pinnacle of life philosophy and jumped off a cliff to commit suicide without even finding his body, is still alive?!?!?"

  He glanced at me faintly: "Whether Mr. Ruo is still alive now, we do not know yet. Nine years ago, it was because Mr. Ruo suddenly disappeared and our seven families searched for nearly half a year without finding his whereabouts that we deceived you. Moreover, such a ridiculous lie that he jumped off a cliff to commit suicide after realizing the pinnacle of life philosophy, your mother should have seen through it long ago. Only someone like you would believe in it so sincerely for so many years."

  My god, my god!!!!!! This is simply a thunderbolt message!!!!! Although such lies are indeed unbelievable to ordinary people, but if you can understand a child who was young and whose mind was thoroughly destroyed by his father at that time, then you must be able to understand why I could believe it so much... because this kind of stupid thing... is indeed possible for that father to do.

  Although my childhood memories are not very clear, and my impression of Dad is also somewhat vague, there are some stupid things that I still remember very clearly! That man once shaved off all the hair of our family's first and most precious watchdog, leaving not a single strand, because he said that moving things block one's line of sight, and only the movement of muscles is the foundation of my studies.

  And! When he was studying whether human nature is good or evil, he stole the newborn son of Aunt Niu from next door and locked him at home for several days!!! As a result, Aunt Niu thought her child had been kidnapped by human traffickers and cried out loud for a long time. It wasn't until the seventh day after reporting to the police that they finally found our house... If it weren't for Aunt Niu taking pity on my dad and explaining things for him, he would probably have gone to jail.

  Putting aside all these strange behaviors, if he can jump off a cliff just because he has reached the ultimate understanding of life... I think it's very possible. I guess his mother at home might be thinking the same way too, but for a woman who is cold-blooded enough to send her own daughter to this kind of school, even if she really knew that her husband was still alive, she wouldn't have much reaction anyway.
