The quiet living room was emitting a faint yellow light while Chu Yufeng was looking outside. The desolate manor was hidden in the darkness, making it appear even more mysterious. Although it was remote, it was also very quiet. It was truly a good place to cultivate.

He flicked his finger, and the cigarette ash fell to the ground. His eyes were like the eyes of a wolf under the dim light of the lamp.

The clock in the center of the antique lamp was turning, but the sound was like it was grinding his heart. Anxiety and restlessness were constantly fluctuating.

She was curled up on the sofa. Ruo Lan had already gone to rest, and the living room was even more deserted. There wasn't the slightest sound.

His phone suddenly rang. He frowned, then slowly answered the call.

"Master, Miss Yu's last call was from Bai Hao."

"Got it." He hung up the phone, stood up, and walked outside.

Opening the door of the living room, a cold wind blew, causing him to feel a chill all over his body. A beam of yellow light was reflected from not far away.

He narrowed his eyes, closed the door again, and continued to wait in the living room.

Very quickly, Butler Li quickly opened the door and stood on the side. Elder Chu walked in with a walking stick and his gaze made contact with the person on the sofa. He didn't seem to be too surprised, as if he had guessed that the person would come.

"Is your Aunt Lan asleep?" Elder Chu walked in apathetically. His expression did not seem like he was talking to his son, but more like he was talking to a stranger.

Chu Yufeng tightened his grip. "Aunt Lan waited for you for a long time before you went upstairs."

"Don't you know what kind of character your Aunt Lan is?" She's like that, and whether I'm there or not, she stays late. "

Chu Yufeng lowered his head, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

"Dad, why didn't you marry Aunt Lan?"

Old man Chu raised his head and looked at Chu Yufeng with a cold gaze. After a while, he said, "It's not that I don't want to marry his."

Chu Yufeng looked up in surprise. Was it because Aunt Lan didn't want to marry him? Aunt Lan clearly loved him, so why didn't she want to be with him forever?

"Don't ask, this isn't something you should ask. I know why you called me over this time." Elder Chu took the tea from Butler Li, sipped it and said, "That girl is as stubborn as Ruo Lan when she was young."

"Dad, where is she?" He knew what kind of person Elder Chu was. If he were to act like he cared deeply about her, it would only be detrimental to her.

"Are you in a hurry for her?" Elder Chu had a cigar in his mouth. Manager Li lit it with concern and asked calmly, "I already said that you can't get close to her."

Chu Yufeng's heart leaped. Elder Chu clearly meant that he didn't want him to have anything to do with Yu Huan, so what did he do to her?

"Is it because she is Aunt Lan's daughter?"

Chu Yufeng's voice was loud and his tone was anxious, completely forgetting where he was.

Elder Chu's expression froze as he suddenly stood up and slapped Chu Yufeng's face. A resounding slap sounded out, but Chu Yufeng still stood in front of him with a straight face and asked in a deep voice, "Where is she?"

"Unfilial son!" Have you forgotten what to say, what not to say? " Elder Chu's face was ashen as he coldly shouted, "Kneel!"

"I want to know where she is." His face was full of persistence, not fearing Elder Chu's anger at all.

"Young Master Feng, hurry and kneel down." Butler Li added on from the side.

"His wings are really hard!" You even dare to disobey me? " Elder Chu's expression changed as he swung his walking stick at him.

Just as it was about to hit, the walking stick stopped in midair. Butler Li looked at Elder Chu with a troubled expression, his hand tightly gripped the walking stick.

"Master, Young Master Feng was only fooled by his worries. Please tell me about him."

"Scram!" Elder Chu gave a cold snort and pushed Steward Li aside. Steward Li took advantage of this time to give Chu Yufeng a good kick on the knee.

He reflexively kneeled on the ground and Elder Chu's walking stick also smashed onto his back.

The white shirt broke in an instant. One could imagine how strong Elder Chu was.

"I want to know where she is!" Chu Yufeng gritted his teeth and asked coldly.

"Bastard!" Elder Chu's eyes were red as he viciously smacked him in the back a few times.

The door upstairs opened, and when Ruo Lan heard the sound, she immediately rolled down the wheelchair, "Brother Chu, what are you doing?!"

Ruo Lan's voice wasn't loud, but it made him stop. Even so, Chu Yufeng's back was swollen and her shirt was completely torn, revealing her bloodied skin underneath.

"Young Master Feng, you know what the old master cares about, why do you still dare to talk back?" Butler Li carefully helped him up and advised him.

"Brother Chu, how could you hit the wind like this?" Ruo Lan's face was full of worry. "Even if he was in the wrong, you shouldn't have hit him like that."

Elder Chu patted her shoulder soothingly, "It's alright, go rest. We have something to discuss."

Elder Chu's usually cold voice actually carried a hint of gentleness as he slowly pushed her up the stairs.

Ruo Lan worriedly touched his hand, raised her head and looked at him, "Big Brother Chu, you should really change your temperament, you can't treat your child like this."

"Alright, alright, I'll sleep with you. Let's not talk about it anymore." Elder Chu pushed her up the stairs helplessly, but his eyes were full of satisfaction.

Butler Li heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at the wound on Chu Yufeng's back and said, "Fortunately, it's here. Otherwise, I'm afraid you would have fainted just like last time."

"Butler Li, I want to know where is she locked up by father?" Chu Yufeng asked anxiously while enduring the pain.

"I won't tell you. If Old Master knows about this, I don't know how he will punish me." Butler Li quickly shook his head, as if he was afraid of Elder Chu's authority.

Chu Yufeng looked disappointed. His back was burning with pain, but he couldn't suppress the worry in his heart.

"Does Aunt Lan know about this?" After ringing for a long time, he asked in a low voice.

Housekeeper Li's face stiffened, "How could Master tell Ruo Lan about this? Young Master Feng, you'd better not bother about it either.

"Yu Huan is my woman. How can I not care about her?" Chu Yufeng's eyes were filled with seriousness, but they were filled with determination.

"Young Master Feng, let me give you a word of advice. It is best if you don't let Ruo Lan hear the slightest bit of news. Otherwise, it won't be as simple as a punishment from a walking stick." Butler Li's face was grave and his tone was serious. It did not seem like he was lying.

Of course, Chu Yufeng knew Elder Chu's personality. He pursed his lips and didn't say anything. However, when he thought of the fact that Yu Huan was in Elder Chu's hands, he felt extremely uneasy.

Early in the morning, Elder Chu walked out with Ruo Lan. Chu Yufeng sat quietly on the sofa, his eyes bloodshot. Apparently, he hadn't slept all night, and the wounds on his back hadn't been treated either.

Ruo Lan's face was filled with pain as she glared at Elder Chu, "How can you hit so hard? Look at his back, it's already injured to this extent, how can you possibly let go of it! "

Chu Yufeng raised his gaze to Elder Chu, his expression grave. "I want to know where she is."

"You haven't given up yet?" Elder Chu asked coldly, pushing Ruo Lan closer.

Ruo Lan ordered a servant standing nearby to get the medicine box. She asked worriedly, "Feng, sit here. Aunt Lan will apply the medicine for you."

Chu Yufeng quietly sat in front of Ruo Lan, carefully took off his clothes, and completely revealed his back in front of Ruo Lan. Ruo Lan sucked in a breath of cold air, and her expression immediately became displeased.

"Brother Chu, Feng is your son after all, how can you be so heartless!"

Elder Chu looked at him quietly, his eyes cold, "Ruo Lan, I'll get a servant to apply the medicine for him."

"No, go to the side." Ruo Lan stared at him resentfully, carefully applying medicine on Chu Yufeng.

Chu Yufeng's eyes were bloodshot as he said in a low voice, "Dad, if you don't tell me, don't blame me for saying anything more."

Elder Chu looked at him silently, and a faint smile appeared on his face. However, that smile did not extend to his eyes. Those who were familiar with him knew that this was a sign that he was going to get angry.

"You have things you want to protect, and I have things I want to protect." Chu Yufeng's tone was firm, showing his determination to fight to the death.

Elder Chu squinted his eyes and sized him up, then slowly said, "Only she can't."

"Hehe, that's your excuse, but what does it have to do with us?" Chu Yufeng smiled faintly, his tone tinged with ridicule. Even if what had happened that year was disgraceful, what did it have to do with them? Why would he use his previous life's entanglement to hinder them?

Ruo Lan was completely confused by their words. She looked at them with a puzzled expression. "What are you guys talking about?" Why can't I understand it? "

"You don't need to understand." Elder Chu turned around and smiled at her. His smile belonged solely to Ruo Lan.

Ruo Lan sighed helplessly and complained, "It's true that I don't know what that is, but tell me, why did you beat up the wind to such an extent?"

Elder Chu was momentarily at a loss for words, he could only blankly stare at Ruo Lan without saying anything. Ruo Lan snorted softly, her face filled with obvious complaint.

"Brother Chu, there can't be a next time!" Children are not meant to be beaten! "

Chu Yufeng's heart warmed as he heard Ruo Lan's words. He hadn't received much love and care since he was young, but he had Ruo Lan at that time, so who else could it be?

Thinking of this, his heart felt uncomfortable for no reason. He wondered how that stubborn little girl was doing now.

"Dad, if you really aren't going to release him, don't blame me for not caring about anything else." He spoke coldly with determination in his eyes.

The air became stagnant, the surroundings were exuding a cold air, Elder Chu's turbid eyes were filled with ruthlessness, he quickly cast his gaze onto Ruo Lan, his eyes instantly froze.

Chu Yufeng let out a sigh of relief, he knew that Elder Chu had compromised, he wouldn't make a deal with Ruo Lan, and he had been bitterly hiding it for so long, how could Elder Chu allow him to say it?
