"Where did this kid come from?" Cen Haonan couldn’t help but ask Su Xuan. Su Xuan briefly explained Shi Yazi’s origins. "Brother Cen, you kid?" "I do!" Cen Haonan made no attempt to hide his thoughts. "The moment I saw his eyes, I was reminded of my younger days." In his youth, he had lived life on the edge, fighting for survival. His eyes had held the same coldness, the same wildness as Shi Yazi’s! A child like that could grow up to be either exceedingly good or exceedingly evil! I should adopt Shi Yazi! The thought rose unbidden in his heart. I’m certain that under my guidance, he would definitely become a real powerhouse in the future! (Meanwhile, Blackie was thinking: I feel like I’m about to be replaced by a kid. I’m so scared!) "Since Brother Cen likes him so much..." Su Xuan smiled faintly. "Then I’ll bring little Yazi to hang out with you more often." He casually brushed the matter aside. Then, after the Panamera was thoroughly smashed, he called for everyone to board the Charman King and head for the Scholar’s Manor. Truth be told, despite being away for only a day, he was already starting to miss his simple home. The reason he chose to host Cen Haonan at his house instead of the Lycar Hotel was that Cen had specifically expressed a desire to see his mansion. The night Su Xuan had called him to get rid of the tattooed youths, Cen Haonan already knew he had bought a mansion on Houhai Street. As for the lawyers Guo Yuxiang had summoned, they were all sent away. Guo Yuxiang was annoyed they hadn’t been of any help. But through this act, Su Xuan caught a glimpse of Guo Yuxiang’s influence. This kid could be incredibly useful. The two physicians from Kangnai, on the other hand, made excuses about being busy at the hospital and left in a taxi. Even Director Ma had never been invited to a meal at Su Xuan’s mansion, so they didn’t dare to be the first. They feared that the notoriously petty Director Ma would get jealous and make things difficult for them. "Wow, look at how spacious this car is!"

I’ve had a change of heart!" Sitting in the Charman King, Cen Haonan seemed less like a kingpin skirting the edges of the underworld and more like a curious child. Luckily, Blackie wasn’t in the car with him; he was following behind in the Bugatti Veyron. Otherwise, he would have been mortified on his boss’s behalf. "Wow, you’ve really got it made, Little Brother Su!" "Just look how big this estate is, how wide this pond is!" "This place is a true paradise!" "Whoa, there’s even an old butler!" As Cen Haonan walked into Su Xuan’s Scholar’s Manor, he was once again left breathless. Inevitably, a thought surfaced in his mind: there’s nothing more infuriating than comparing yourself to others! They were both men, so why was Su Xuan living so comfortably? After a lifetime of struggle, weathering every storm imaginable, all he had to show for it was a 300-square-meter house. Alas! The difference... it was maddening! "Hah!" Cen Haonan’s eyes suddenly widened. "There’s a giant panda!" Then his eyes grew even wider. "And a foreign girl!" At that moment, Alice was brushing Da Bai’s fur. Dappled sunlight filtered through the trees in the courtyard, casting a picturesque scene on her and the giant panda that was breathtakingly beautiful. Guo Yuxiang, Lu Dachun, and Blackie, who had come along, were all completely mesmerized. They wished they could become Su Xuan right then and there. Only Su Zimo, holding the hands of the young siblings, remained relatively composed, as she had been here once before. "Su Xuan, you’re back!" Upon seeing Su Xuan, Alice immediately waved, her blonde hair shimmering beautifully. "Mhm, brought some friends home for a meal," Su Xuan nodded at her. He then led Cen Haonan and the others toward the estate’s banquet hall. The brother and sister, however, were instantly captivated by Da Bai and dragged Su Zimo over to him. At first, they thought Su Xuan had been joking, but they never imagined he actually had a giant panda at his home. And despite having lived deep in the mountains their whole lives, they felt no sense of unfamiliarity upon arriving at Su Xuan’s estate. "You two play with Da Bai for a bit," Alice said after introducing herself to the young siblings. She then suddenly remembered something. Handing the brush to the sweet and adorable Xiao Yun, she hurried to the banquet hall to find Su Xuan. "Su Xuan, it’s not convenient to cook today," Alice announced. "Oh?" Su Xuan replied, seated on a chair made of golden Phoebe nanmu wood. Alice shrugged her delicate shoulders. "Your Senior Sister Xuehan got a call from Kangnai early this morning. She went to the hospital to be with her father, so she can’t cook for you!" Su Xuan tilted his head slightly. "Then I’ll have to trouble you." "My cooking is terrible! You should find someone else—" Su Xuan suddenly grabbed her hand, placed it on his stomach, and looked up into her azure eyes. He fluttered his own eyelashes and pleaded pitifully, "Please... I’m about to starve to death..." Alice’s mouth slowly formed an ’O’, her eyes wide with astonishment. Oh, my God! How could you give him such irresistible charm! His damn pouting is simply impossible to resist! It’s bringing out all my maternal instincts! Right now, my cooking skills have been completely maxed out! I’ve become an amazing chef! I have to go cook for him! The next second, Alice dashed into the kitchen and began busying herself with a cacophony of clangs and clatters. "Ahem, Little Brother Su!" Cen Haonan said, having witnessed the exchange with utter admiration. "You’re incredible. You were so charming, that girl almost cried!" "Yeah, even I almost couldn’t resist running to the kitchen to cook for you!" Blackie chimed in. "Brother Su, are you taking disciples? Teach me!" Guo Yuxiang pleaded from the bottom of his heart. "No wonder no woman has ever given you a bad review for your deliveries. I finally get it!" Lu Dachun said with a look of sudden understanding. Outside in the shaded courtyard, Xiao Yun asked Su Zimo curiously as she brushed Da Bai’s fur, "Sister Su, was that lady a foreigner?" Before Su Zimo could reply, her brother, Shi Yazi, declared, "Definitely not a foreigner!" Su Zimo smiled. "Mhm, little Yazi is right. That lady isn’t really a foreigner. She’s..." Shi Yazi cut in with an air of absolute certainty, "She’s a foreign mare!" Su Zimo nearly fainted. "Where did you hear that term?" Shi Yazi replied, "One time I went to the village to buy salt and saw the village chief watching a movie on his phone..." "Stop," Su Zimo said, rubbing her forehead in exasperation. This pair of siblings, especially the brother, have to have their ’issues’ treated and begin a proper, comprehensive education as soon as possible! 「Meanwhile, at the Lycar Hotel.」 Zhao Ankang, Su Xuan’s humanoid surveillance unit installed at the hotel, was hiding in a corner of the hallway. He stared at a beautiful young woman with an explosive figure, his expression grim. He then took out his phone, dialed Su Xuan’s number, and said gravely, "Brother Su, we have a situation! I’ve discovered a spy lurking in our hotel!"
