Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan were chatting when someone knocked on the door. Wei Yuanxing entered with a bag of breakfast and a thermos flask.
“Breakfast is here!” Wei Yuanxing smiled as he walked up to the two of them and placed the bag and thermos flask on the table. “Today’s breakfast is sumptuous. Deep-fried breadstick, sesame seed cake, porridge, soy milk, and wontons.” As he spoke, he took out the breakfast from the bag and placed it on the table.
“I happened to pass by here, so I brought it over for you guys.” Wei Yuanxing sat down beside Zhan Yihan. When he saw Su Jinyue going to the washroom to wash the cups, he nudged Zhan Yihan with his hand and asked with a smirk, “When are we going to attend your wedding?” Needless to say, he had heard about what happened to Taro Ono. Now, Taro Ono and the others had been locked up in the most secure secret base in the Capital city and were being interrogated.
“If you’re so curious, why don’t you find someone for yourself?” Zhan Yihan opened the lid of the lunch box containing wontons and plain porridge. He took out two spoons from the bag and placed them inside. Then, he pushed the wontons to the seat that Su Jinyue sat in just now.
Wei Yuanxing rolled his eyes at Zhan Yihan. “Do you think it’s that easy to find someone? It’s not like I can randomly find one on the streets.” He felt that it was good for him to be single. He did not want to find someone to create trouble for himself.
“Isn’t your holiday coming to an end?” Zhan Yihan changed the topic.
Wei Yuanxing nodded. “I’ll return to the army tomorrow morning.” He had returned mainly because the Hidden Sects Conference was about to begin. The Wei Family was one of the four prominent families in the capital, so they had obtained a token to participate in the Conference.
Su Jinyue walked out of the bathroom and placed three washed cups on the table. She picked up the thermos bottle containing soy milk and opened it, pouring a cup of soy milk for each of them. It had been many years since she had drunk soy milk.
“I was just lucky.” Su Jinyue took a sip of the soybean milk, picked up the spoon, and placed a piece of wonton in Zhan Yihan’s bowl. “I can’t eat so much.” Since Taro Ono was sent to Hua Xia to carry out a mission, he was definitely not a simple person. Furthermore, since he was able to avoid so many patrolling security guards and enter the hospital, his skills were definitely not weak. If it wasn’t because he had underestimated her too much, it would not be that easy to restrain him.
“Eat first and give me the remainder. I don’t mind,” Zhan Yihan said when he saw that Su Jinyue wanted to give him more.
When Su Jinyue heard that, she suddenly recalled the scene of her feeding him the day before. Her face flushed red.
Seeing that Su Jinyue’s face was red, Zhan Yihan immediately guessed that she had recalled the scene yesterday. His lips turned up in a faint smile.
“Can’t the two of you keep a low profile? You should at least worry about me, a single man. Alright, alright, I’ll leave now to avoid being provoked by you.” Wei Yuanxing stood up with an expression that he couldn’t stand them. He waved at the two of them before opening the door and leaving the room.
Just as he walked out, Wei Yuanxing suddenly recalled his purpose for coming here today. He turned around, pushed open the door, and returned to the room.
Under the astonished gazes of Zhan Yihan and Su Jinyue, he sat down again. Wei Yuanxing looked at Zhan Yihan and said, “Yihan, you know about the Hidden Sects Conference, right?” Yihan was a disciple of the Hidden Sect, so he definitely knew about it. His grandfather had given him full authority of the Hidden Sects Conference token and allowed him to choose two people to go with him because each token allowed him to bring two people with him.
Although the Wei family was one of the four prominent families, it wasn’t an ancient martial arts family. Besides him, there weren’t many other disciples who had learned martial arts. This was also why his grandfather had given him the token.
The Hidden Sects Conference was not an ordinary conference. Most of the people participating in the conference were ancient martial arts practitioners. Even if they knew martial arts, they had to be careful there. Otherwise, if they accidentally offended someone from one of the sects, it was possible that their whole clan might be exterminated. Therefore, he planned to let Zhan Yihan accompany him. Firstly, it was because Yihan was an ancient martial arts practitioner. Secondly, Yihan was calm and collected.
“I know.” Zhan Yihan nodded. The Hidden Sects Conference was held once every three years, and only a few clans in the mortal world were qualified to participate.
“There’s still a week until the Hidden Sects Conference. By that time, your injuries will be more or less healed. I want you to accompany me to participate.” Wei Yuanxing revealed his plans.
“Will your family agree?” Zhan Yihan asked. He and Yuanxing were as close as brothers, but they were not biological brothers after all.
Wei Yuanxing nodded. “Grandpa gave me full authority on this matter.” If that wasn’t the case, he wouldn’t have invited Yihan.
“I’m not going. You can let Jinyue (Yihan) go,” Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan said at the same time.
“Let’s go together. It’s decided,” Wei Yuanxing decided.
“Alright then! I’ll come over tonight and tell you the outcome,” Wei Yuanxing said. He believed that if his grandfather knew that he had given Yihan the spot, he would definitely agree because his grandfather had always had a good impression of Yihan, and Yihan was indeed very strong.
