Chapter 539
Wearing a gold helmet, wielding the Tyrant's Spear, and riding a black horse, he was unstoppable.
Riding a thousand miles alone while being attacked from all sides, he was unstoppable.
Carrying the imperial edict and the hopes of a billion Donghua citizens on his back, he was unstoppable.
That year, 800 thousand troops split into four and conquered 16 nations in a single night. The entire nation celebrated the momentous achievement. However, no one noticed that he, despite being only 27 years old, lost 30 pounds overnight, and his hair turned white…
Tears welled up in Zhou Lie's eyes. He mumbled to himself, "You never understood your father, Feng. He's the most loyal and sentimental man I've ever known…"
Yun Muqing discreetly left the living room and went upstairs. She found Chu Feng leaning against the balcony and gazing at Lord Chu's Castle gleaming majestically under the sunset.
She could not guess what he was thinking.
Yun Muqing went up to Chu Feng and draped a jacket over his shoulders. "I'm sure you miss your home, right? He's your father after all."
Chu Feng stretched his arms and laughed self-deprecatingly. "Father? He's the almighty Lord Chu, the Emperor's equal and beloved by all. I, on the other hand, am the son of a lowly peasant. I don't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as him."
He left the balcony after that. Yun Muqing bit her lip as she watched him leave. There were so many things she wanted to tell him.
Chu Feng did not sleep well that night.
The next two days were uneventful. Other than eating and sleeping, Chu Feng spent the rest of his time with Duo Duo. He brought her to shopping malls and amusement parks.
Zhou Lie never mentioned Lord Chu anymore. It was as though the incident at the dining table had never happened.
On the other hand, Li Hongtu invited Chu Feng and his family to dinner several times. He was eager to play the host.
Chu Feng declined the invitation tactfully several times. However, Li Hongtu was too enthusiastic. It would be rude for Chu Feng to keep on declining, so he eventually agreed to it.
Li Hongtu quickly made a reservation and told Chu Feng he would pick up his family personally.
"Feng, don't you think Mr. Li is very dependable? Not only did he agree to the contract with your Uncle Yong, but he also invited us for dinner. We'll have to repay this debt of gratitude somehow," Liu Minglan said.
"Yes, Mother. I know," Chu Feng said with a smile. That made Zhou Lie and his wife very happy.
That was their character. Any debt of gratitude, big or small, must be repaid, and any grudge must be forgiven.
However, Zhou Lie's siblings, who were "successful" businesspeople, would think that he was naïve and deserved to be poor.
While Chu Feng and his family waited at the front gate for Li Hongtu to arrive, a minivan suddenly stopped in front of them. Soon after that, a group of eight hooligans with tattoo sleeves rushed out.
"That's him, Biao! That b*stard killed our son, and he even threatened to kill me…" The plump woman said coyly to a bald man. "You'll have to avenge me and our son!"
Yun Muqing was shocked. She hugged Duo Duo tightly.
She did not expect the plump woman to actually carry out her threat…
