Chapter 346 During a Blizzard (5)
The old man was angry but helpless as he watched the girl run away. There was nothing he could do; she was his creditor, and the girl hadn't really caused any serious trouble.
Wangyou returned home, took a hot shower, and then went straight to rest.
The next day, Wangyou received a call from the school, went back to collect her graduation certificate, and then had a lot of free time.
Wangyou's social circle is not wide, and her acquaintance with Yin Guo was an accident. Apart from that, she interacts most with that group of old men.
After two days of leisure, a call came from the Xie family residence, saying that the old clan chief was dying.
Wangyou calculated that the old patriarch had lived for nearly five hundred years. The Xie family had a special bloodline, and basically everyone lived a long life.
Immortality—what an alluring word! So, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Xie family gradually withdrew from the capital and went completely into hiding. Now, the location of the Xie family's main residence is so remote that only core members of the Xie family can find it.
Since the phone call had already reached her, Wangyou was in a daze. After tidying up briefly, she returned to the main house the next day.
The atmosphere in the main house was very heavy, which indicated that the old patriarch's condition was indeed not optimistic. Walking into the room, there was not much medical equipment or the like, but most of the Xie family's direct descendants were there.
"Wangyou, the Xie family is now in your hands." The old patriarch said this with great expectation, and then peacefully closed his eyes.
Wangyou raised an eyebrow; this old man had tricked her even on his deathbed.
"What are your thoughts on the position of clan leader?" Wangyou asked, looking at the group of direct descendants.
"No, greetings, clan leader." Xie Zhihuai, who was leading the group, knelt down on one knee, and the others did the same, without the slightest reluctance.
Wangyou didn't believe it and carefully examined the face of everyone present. "Are you all just going to give up and not fight back?"
"You truly deserve the position of clan leader. Let's take care of the old clan leader's funeral first!" Xie Zhihuai changed the subject.
The old clan chief died of old age, which was considered a happy death. Although everyone was saddened, no one wailed loudly. The old clan chief's funeral was simple yet solemn.
After Wangyou finished handling the old clan chief's funeral, she asked again and found that no one had any intention of usurping the throne and had accepted Wangyou as the clan chief.
Wangyou was helpless; she couldn't just abandon everything and leave. After all, all those years of education hadn't been for nothing.
Of course, she was only twenty years old, so it was impossible for her to stay at the Xie family's main residence. Therefore, Wangyou directly distributed the power in her hands, believing that sharing happiness was better than keeping it to herself.
After that came the day for the Xie family's five-year-old children to take a medicinal bath. After watching the children successfully complete their medicinal bath and begin learning ancient martial arts, Wangyou then gave a group of middle-aged and elderly people another training session.
"Alright, just grow stronger according to what I left behind. There shouldn't be any major problems. I'll come back to check on you every now and then." Having finally settled everything at hand, Wangyou's tone was light and cheerful.
"Chieftain, are you really not staying?"
"No, I trust you completely. I'd be even happier if you were interested in taking over. I'm leaving now." Wangyou pulled her suitcase and cheerfully left the Xie family's main residence.
If you calculate the time, it's been half a year since she returned to the main house.
"Wangyou, you're back?"
"Oh, you're back too."
"I've already competed in several matches, and let me tell you, Lin Yiyang and I are together now." Yin Guo's voice softened towards the end, but her eyes were full of happiness.
"Not bad, you're fast enough. When did you two get together?"
"We started dating just a few days after you left Hel."
"Lin Yiyang is really fast! Anyway, best of luck!"
"Wangyou, he's back on the court, and he looks so handsome playing basketball."
"You're just seeing beauty in your lover's eyes!"
"He's handsome to begin with."
"Okay, okay, as long as you think he's handsome."
"Let's not talk about that. I recently discovered a newly opened hot pot restaurant that's really delicious. It's on me," Yin Guo said with a smile.
"That's great, I'll be right there." After hanging up the phone, Wangyou went out.
The hot pot was indeed delicious, and Wangyou liked it very much. After finishing the hot pot, the two strolled around the night market for a while. Then Meng Xiaodong called to ask where Yin Guo and the others were, and then came to pick them up.
"Something feels off to me," Wangyou said in surprise. As far as she knew, Meng Xiaodong often took care of his younger sister, but he wouldn't come to pick her up so soon after she left home.
"Now that you mention it, it does seem a bit strange."
"How long has it been since you last saw Lin Yiyang?"
"It's been almost three months, what's wrong?"
What do you think?
"He went back to China?"
"Only this guess fits your brother's behavior."
"That……"
"Let's go, maybe I can still watch the show."
In the end, she definitely didn't get to see the excitement, because on her way to take Yin Guo back, Wang You got stuck in traffic. And the people blocking the traffic were acquaintances. In the end, she could only let Yin Guo go with Meng Xiaodong, while she went to the research institute with the others.
The situation was indeed extremely urgent, and Wangyou had no choice but to stay at the research institute.
Then, they stayed for half a year. A new satellite was launched, providing global coverage within thirty seconds. It could monitor any place at any time without being detected, and incidentally, it could also block the spying of enemy countries.
From its creation to its launch, this satellite spent less than half a day on Earth before being sent into space. It was classified as top secret, and all the researchers at the institute signed confidentiality agreements. In addition, their ancestors for eight generations were thoroughly investigated.
As for those whose identities cannot be fully investigated, they may live under surveillance for the rest of their lives. Moreover, the existence of this satellite is known only to the researchers and the top leader.
After all, the fewer people who know about something that's like having eyes in someone else's house, the better.
"Alright, don't call me unless it's something important. I need to start dating." Wangyou said goodbye to the big boss in a serious tone, and then quickly made her escape.
Yin Guo and Lin Yiyang have already met each other's parents and officially confirmed their relationship. Billiards has also been included in the Olympic Games, so Yin Guo and her team are extremely busy preparing for the competition.
Out of sheer boredom, he decided to take a sinecure at Tsinghua University and become a teacher.
Two classes a week are not tiring and can help pass the time.
Then Wangyou discovered a fun place, Good Time Club, where you can really do whatever you want as long as you have money.
Forget-Me-Not would hire male models to sing and dance for her. Whether they were clean or not was another matter, but they were all quite good-looking and pleasing to the eye!
"Help me!" Wangyou had just finished sending away the group of male models who had finished singing and dancing, closed her eyes to clear her mind, when she heard a faint cry for help coming from outside the door.
Wangyou didn't want to meddle in other people's business. In this kind of place, there are all kinds of people and all kinds of things. Dark places can never be completely cleaned up.
"Bang!" The door was kicked open.
