Chapter 632 - 632 Fate 2
632 Fate 2
Little Niu nodded. “Yes, I can’t see.”
If it was twelve years ago, he could not see with his eyes, but his mind was open. He could sense everything. Apart from being unable to see colors, it had no effect on him.
He knew what people were, what things were, what good intentions were, and what malicious intentions were. These were all things that could be sensed.
Little Niu’s expression was gentle and kind.
The manservant stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him again. He even deliberately used his finger to slowly approach Little Niu’s eyes. Little Niu’s eyes didn’t have any reaction. If he could really see, when faced with the sudden approach of someone else’s finger, his eyes would either subconsciously close or his pupils would constrict.
Little Niu didn’t have any of these reactions. The manservant also knew that such behavior was impolite. Seeing that Little Niu really couldn’t see, he retracted his hand and said apologetically, “I’ve offended you just now. Please allow me to go in and ask. Please wait a moment.”
He was just a servant. It was impossible for him to let someone in without reporting.
Little Niu nodded and thanked her politely. “Thank you, fated one.”
The manservant entered and went to the main courtyard. When he arrived, he realized that Yan Zhiyuan was not there.
Beside Yan Qingyun was an old man who had been serving him. When the old man saw that the manservant seemed to have something to say, he asked, “Why are you looking for Young Master?”
The manservant paused and thought for a moment before saying, “It’s like this. A blind young Daoist priest came to the residence just now. He said that he and Eldest Master are fated. Only after realizing this fate can Eldest Master leave in peace.”
“I thought about it and felt that it was strange. I didn’t dare to drive him away rashly, so I came to report.”
If it was just an ordinary request for money, he might be able to chase them away, but Little Niu wasn’t. It was mainly because he felt that it was a little mysterious that he didn’t dare to act on his own.
“Old Master’s health… Sigh… Invite him in. Remember to avoid some people.”
Yan Qingyun’s body couldn’t take it anymore. Even if he was stubborn now, he would still be tortured if he lived. After all, he had served Yan Qingyun for many years. As long as he understood Yan Qingyun’s personality, he would be easy to serve.
Moreover, Yan Qingyun had really done his best for his son and grandsons, but the juniors didn’t understand his painstaking efforts.
Now that Yan Zhiyuan was intentionally torturing him, he could not bear to see him like this. It was destined that a little Daoist priest would come at this time. If he could free his master as soon as possible, he would have fulfilled this master-servant relationship.
The manservant nodded. “Understood.”
The servant retreated.
Only then did the old servant wet Yan Qingyun’s mouth with a cotton cloth. He said apologetically, “Master, I can’t help you much. Please take this cotton cloth to moisten your throat.”
Yan Zhiyuan was really ruthless. It wasn’t that Yan Qingyun couldn’t eat, but that he wasn’t allowed to give anything to Yan Qingyun. He just wanted Yan Qingyun to suffer for nothing.
Thinking about it, it was sad. As servants, they saw things differently. They felt that Yan Qingyun was thoughtful for his children and had nurtured them diligently. However, his children were not very hardworking. They did not understand Yan Qingyun’s painstaking efforts and still bore a grudge in their hearts.
Yan Qingyun sucked on the water on the cotton cloth. He was in pain, but he couldn’t die no matter what.
He could not eat or drink. He had not starved for long, but he already felt incomparable pain. However, looking at the situation, he would probably be in so much pain that he wanted to die for many days before he could finally collapse and starve to death.
Her son, Yan Zhiyuan, had lost his humanity and revealed his true nature in front of him.
Seeing him like this before he died, Yan Qingyun felt that he would really die with grievances.
His thoughts were heavy, and the old servant sighed faintly.
He didn’t dare to feed Yan Qingyun too much. He only fed him a little to make Yan Qingyun feel better. He was old and couldn’t afford to be sold to another family.
Taking the risk of letting the manservant invite him in, he actually had some hope that Yan Qingyun would get better because of this. As long as he got better, all the difficulties would be easily resolved.
The manservant went out and invited Little Niu in, avoiding the others in the residence.
But before he reached the main courtyard, he heard a terrifying voice call out to him.
“Wait.”
Yan Zhiyuan’s voice was stern. He did not suppress himself like before. Instead, he had a sense of elation.
The manservant trembled and immediately knelt down. “Master, please forgive me.”
Yan Zhiyuan walked over. He did not get angry immediately, but looked at Little Niu again and again. Finally, he said, “I’ve seen you before.”
He remembered. Wasn’t this the person beside Su Xiaolu? What was he doing here?
Yan Zhiyuan was a little vigilant. “What are you doing in my residence? Did Su Xiaolu ask you to come?”
Yan Zhiyuan was a little nervous. What was the Su family doing? Why did they send such a person?
Little Niu shook her head gently. “No one asked me to come. I came here on my own accord. I have an unresolved fate with your father. I’m here to resolve the confusion in his heart and help him die in peace.”
Yan Zhiyuan frowned. He looked at Little Niu and waved his hand in front of his eyes.
He smiled. “Who is my father and who are you? Do you think you can meet him just because you want to?”
“Dog slave, you’re blind. You let anyone in. Are you the master or am I the master? If there’s a next time, don’t blame me for being harsh. Hurry up and chase him… escort him out.”
Yan Zhiyuan kicked the manservant. Thinking of Su Xiaolu, he changed his words.
This way, even if Su Xiaolu came, she could not say anything.
After all, Yan Qingyun’s status was there. If anyone wanted to see him, there would be no rules.
The manservant immediately kowtowed to express his gratitude before inviting Little Niu out.
“Little Daoist priest, please.”
The manservant couldn’t bear to blame Little Niu.
Little Niu thanked the manservant apologetically. He didn’t pester him and followed the manservant out.
The moment he left, Yan Zhiyuan headed towards the main courtyard.
Seeing the trembling old servant, Yan Zhiyuan snorted and scolded, “You restless old thing.”
The old servant immediately knelt down and apologized.
Yan Zhiyuan ignored him and went straight into the room.
Since he was on holiday for the new year, he had plenty of time to vent his anger.
The moment they entered, Yan Zhiyuan sat down by the bed and said unhappily, “Old man, let me tell you a piece of news about Qi Xingfeng. He stole the limelight during the new year. All of this was because you curry favor with the Su family and gave Qi Xingfeng a good weapon, which made Qi Xingfeng famous.”
“The news has spread to the palace. The emperor was happy, and he gave each of them a lot of rewards. There were so many good things that even the royal family did not have, but they were all given to a young boy. You have been sucking up to him for so long, but you got nothing at all. If this weapon was given to us and offered by our family, our family would benefit a lot when the emperor was happy.” Yan Zhiyuan got angry as he spoke.
