3000 years later

"...Brother." Li Chengen followed Ye Ying's gaze, and saw a boy in golden clothes come out from the side of the painting boat, bit his lip and dabbled in front of them, lowered his head and whispered, "Brother... ...I...I didn't mean to eavesdrop..."

He seemed to be a little afraid of Ye Ying, he was not as close to his elder brother as Ye Jingyi was at all, he stood at a distance, looked up at Li Chengen, but only stared at the hem of Ye Ying, as if he wanted to get into the ground.

Ye Ying didn't seem to care about this, she still said lightly: "Father is looking for you, go back."

Ye Fan agreed and ran away in a hurry.

"Fifth Young Master... afraid of you?" Li Chengen stroked his chin and looked at Ye Ying thoughtfully.

"When he was young, he liked to haunt me at Jianzhong, but he stopped going there when he was older." Ye Ying walked away two steps, looked at the quiet lake under the moonlight, and continued, "In the past two years...we rarely see each other."

Li Chengen understood at once. According to Ye Ying's personality, which is indifferent and repulsive, Xiao Yefan might have bumped into a lot of walls. The elder brother with a dignified aura stays at a respectful distance, fearful in his heart.

"You love your brother and sister very much, why didn't you tell him?" Li Cheng'en said, "As he did to Miss Ye, he will naturally not be afraid of you."

"Afan is different from Jingyi. He will inherit the mantle of Tibetan sword in the future. How can he always be pampered?" After being interrupted by Ye Fan, the intimate and charming atmosphere here suddenly faded away. Standing on the pier, he said quietly, "Children of Hidden Sword, you must take responsibility."

Ye Ying raised her head slightly, her forehead bangs were blown up by the night wind, clearly revealing her beautiful side face.The slender eyelashes are obvious, but there is no feeling of weakness. On the contrary, Ye Ying is completely like a sharp sword ready to go, firm, reliable, and trustworthy.

Just like his sword skills, so beautiful, but also so fierce.

Li Chengen couldn't turn his eyes away, and then clearly understood that the person in front of him was no longer the silent child who was scolded by Ye Mengqiu for being useless, he had grown into an outstanding and calm young man, and he was the new owner of Hidden Sword Villa.

He couldn't help taking a step closer, and took Ye Ying's hand: "Aying..."

The long and slender fingers have hard calluses from sword practice, and the joints are uniform, which can be completely wrapped in the palm of his hand, forming a perfect protective posture.

Ye Ying's gaze slowly moved up from the intertwined hands, she looked at Li Chengen, and smiled slightly: "The general has something to say, but it doesn't matter."

Li Chengen opened his mouth, feeling that he didn't know where to start with a thousand words, and finally sighed and said without thinking: "I won't get married."

Ye Ying raised her eyebrows.

A weird silence permeated, Ye Ying didn't say a word, Li Chengen didn't know what to say next - the eloquent teeth and glib tongue that he used to gag with his brothers in Fengyue Field in the past seemed to have been completely forgotten now, But even if he still remembered, those words were totally inappropriate to say to Ye Ying.

"In May next year, I will go to the South China Sea." Ye Ying turned her face away and said, "Maybe, I will stay for a few years."

"What are you going to do?" Li Chengen frowned, "Alone?"

"I promised a friend before that I would give him the first sword I made by myself." Ye Ying said slowly, "There is a thousand-year-old cold iron in the South China Sea that is hard to find in the world, and it is a wonderful thing that can't be found." He said. As he spoke, he suddenly laughed: "As for the others...it can be a person, or not."

Li Chengen was taken aback for a moment, and then became ecstatic.

After ten years, he finally got the answer he wanted most at the place where they met for the first time.

=============================== 3000 years later =BY=Yishui Hanyan============== ===============

Every lawyer in his previous life was an Orleans roasted wing with broken wings.

This was Chu Lancang's only thought of working overtime until the early morning of the third day.

He was really lucky. On the first day of his internship in Sanhuai, he encountered an urgent case in Chen Fei's hands. As an intern assistant, of course he couldn't be idle, right, he must have followed the lead.Chen Fei was not polite at all, without the slightest sense of "the little junior brother just came in and doesn't need to take care of anything", so he threw a bunch of English materials to him, asking him to sort out all the places related to the case.

So Chu Lancang was dizzy from reading English for the past two days, and came to work with dark circles under her eyes every day.When I met Lin Muqiu in the aisle, I got a sigh: "Xiao Chu, you really don't think about coming to my place? Chen Fei is famous for his work... ordinary interns can't bear it."

"No, Senior Brother Chen...very good." Chu Lancang was extremely sleepy, but she tried her best to cheer up and said with a smile, "Thank you, sister Qiu, it's an internship, you can only learn when you are busy."

Lin Muqiu smiled, didn't force himself, patted him on the shoulder and left.

At night, Chen Fei's office was brightly lit, and his assistant Xiao Zhang stayed overnight for two days, but couldn't take it anymore, and was sent back to sleep by Chen Fei.Chu Lancang originally belonged to the ranks of being driven away, but he saw that Chen Fei was obviously tired too, the case could not be delayed, and Xiao Zhang left again, so he offered to stay and help.

"Senior Brother, you can't do it alone, so I'll stay here and help. I'm a boy, no more than Xiao Zhang, a girl. I can hold on."

Chen Fei didn't refuse either, and smiled and said, "I can't blame my dad for recommending you. You are indeed a good seed." The information that Chu Lancang handed in was clear and identifiable, and the analysis was quite organized. It can be seen that the English level is really good .Although some opinions are obviously textbook-style lack of practical experience, it is already rare for a graduate student who has not yet graduated.

The most important thing is that he is not impetuous or complaining, and works quietly, so that he works overtime day and night and shows that he can "hold it up", which is rare among many graduates who can't calm down.

A down-to-earth person can often go further.

"It's past 12 o'clock, you should also get up and exercise to clear your mind." Chen Fei has been used to working overtime in the past few years, even though he has worked for three days, he still looks normal.Looking at the thick dark circles under the eyes of Chu Lancang's clear face, he couldn't help but want to laugh, and felt a little pity, "Otherwise, lie down and sleep for a while, it's fine."

"I'm okay." Chu Lancang stood up, "I'm going to make a cup of coffee, brother, do you want it?"

"Well, pure black, don't put anything."

Watching Chu Lancang go out, Chen Fei rubbed his shoulders, and refocused his attention on the case analysis and evidence collection investigation. Suddenly, the phone rang, and it was Chen Lan.

"It's late, why are you still awake?" Chen Fei answered the phone, "Going out with friends?"

"No, brother, I just want to greet you." Chen Lan smiled over there, "Sister Xiaoye Xiuxiu in the gang kept asking me what you were doing, and I said I was working overtime, and she told me to tell you Let me tell you not to work too hard. Brother, are you two in love? I think she cares about you very much."

"...You stay up in the middle of the night and call on the phone just because of this?" Chen Fei couldn't laugh or cry.

"Aren't I adding some fun to your boring overtime life! Besides, I didn't sleep, and I went to fight Dihua with them (Note 1)."

"Uh..." Chen Fei remembered that the guild really wanted to organize a team book today, "Tell the guild leader about the hidden sword equipment and try to take care of Dian Ranqiu, just say I said it. His equipment is not very good now, hurry up If it goes up, it will be a very powerful DPS."

"Master, he hasn't been on for the past few days, I don't know why he went." Chen Lan crackled the keyboard over there, "The gang is still joking, saying that you two eloped, and there is nothing wrong with a yard of black." online."

"...A bunch of little kids, just think wildly." Chen Fei cursed with a smile, and said, "Don't be too late, going to bed late is not good for your girls' health."

"...Brother, you are so long-winded, you are almost catching up with mom."

"You really bit Lu Dongbin..."

"Brother, be careful, I will announce your mobile phone number to the girls in our department... just wait for your death."

"...I'm working, bye."

"Hey, I've conveyed the greeting of love, you can go back and thank Miss Xiaoye yourself." Chen Lan didn't hesitate, "I'm dead~88"

After hanging up Chen Lan's phone call, the matter of Ye Ranqiu not being online and Chunjiang Huayueye's special greetings stayed in Chen Fei's mind for only a second before being eliminated, replaced by various suspicious points and clues of the case.

Once he entered the working state, Chen Fei couldn't care about anything, so that when he finally cleared his mind and stretched, he found a cup of cold coffee on the table, and Chu Lancang was lying on the table, Appears to be asleep.

Chen Fei checked the time, it was 4:[-] in the morning.

About the time Chu Lancang came over with coffee, he was so engrossed in thinking about the case that he didn't notice it at all, and it took several hours.

Chen Fei stood up and walked to Chu Lancang's desk and chair, and leaned over to look at his computer. It showed the situation analysis table of this case. Below it marked many points that are beneficial to the client and the loopholes in the plaintiff's testimony. Quite correct, there are even one or two places that Chen Fei didn't discover.

Chen Fei had a great time watching it, and secretly praised this kid in his heart as indeed capable and willing to work, and he must have a bright future.

And Chu Lancang just lay on the table and fell asleep peacefully, unaware of Chen Fei's approaching, probably really exhausted, and fell asleep because he couldn't hold on anymore, a little movement would definitely not bring him wake up.

Chen Fei looked at the hard table, not to mention that Chu Lancang's head was leaning on the edge of the computer screen, so he didn't know how much radiation it was.After thinking for a while, he bent down and turned the chair in a different direction, then gently picked up the little junior who was sleeping deeply, and walked towards the sofa in the office.

Chu Lancang grunted twice, but didn't wake up. She just quickly moved twice in his arms, assumed a comfortable position, and fell asleep again.

What a child who sleeps very well... Chen Fei sighed, if it was him, he would probably wake up after such a movement, how could he sleep so soundly.But when I was a teenager, I couldn't sleep enough and couldn't wake up. Does this mean that I am old?

It hurt my self-esteem too much, obviously he is only 27...

When he put Chu Lancang down, he might have made a big move, the sleeping person moved, half-opened his eyes in a daze, stared blankly at Chen Fei, and didn't respond at all.

Chen Fei guessed that he was still in a daze, and it was a little funny, so she reached out to support his shoulders to make him lie down, and took a coat to cover Chu Lancang: "It's okay, go on to sleep, ah."

Unexpectedly, Chu Lancang suddenly stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around his neck, and Chen Fei was pulled down without warning, and then felt something warm and soft on his lips.
