Long Xiangtian woke up early the next morning, but he did not relax his practice after a rest. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the bed and practiced "The Mysterious Energy of Killing the Sky".
When he woke up again, two hours had passed. The little fat man looked at Long Xiangtian in confusion: "Boss, you are already quite good among your peers, why do you still practice so diligently?"
"What is the purpose of your practice?" Long Xiangtian stared at the little fat boy and asked seriously.
The little fat boy lowered his head and thought carefully before speaking: "Well, I don't know, I just feel that cultivation is very cool. I didn't plan to become very powerful, but my dad beat me when he saw that my cultivation was low, and now I am like this."
After hearing what the little fat man said, Long Xiangtian was actually a little disappointed. Is this the reason why the children of big families practice? For interest? Long Xiangtian couldn't stop practicing, not because someone would beat him up, but because he still had a lot of things to protect.
"Little Fatty, I am different from you. I am not from a big family. I don't have a father to protect me from the wind and rain. Faith is the reason for my cultivation."
Long Xiangtian saw that the little fat man was at a loss after hearing what he said, and then continued to explain to him: "Everyone has something to protect, a person, an event, or even just a memory. I practice to protect the people I love."
After hearing what Long Xiangtian said, the little fat man nodded thoughtfully and said, "Boss, do you have such a thrilling love story?"
Seeing that the little fat boy didn't grasp the main point of his words, but talked about other things, Long Xiangtian immediately lectured the little fat boy in a bad mood: "Get lost, I think you are just lazy and don't want to practice."
"Hungry... Don't blame me. It's because the cultivation methods in our family are so tiring. Last time my dad gave me some special training, I almost lost several pounds." When the little fat boy heard Long Xiangtian say that he was lazy, he immediately explained with dissatisfaction. When he talked about the special training, he looked very scared.
Seeing the fat boy looking at his belly with deep affection, Long Xiangtian really wanted to kick him again. You are so short and fat, and you only lost a few pounds after the special training. I guess that special training is just for fun in the eyes of others.
But since the little fat boy doesn’t like to practice, Long Xiangtian doesn’t have much to say. After all, everyone has his own life.
"By the way, no one came to see me before?" Long Xiangtian thought that yesterday he asked Shatuo to beat up the Zhang family's housekeeper who came to cause trouble. Didn't anyone come to him to ask for an explanation
"Yes, but when I told him you were practicing, he said he would come back later." The little fat man added, "Boss, who is that person? He seems to be quite cautious with you."
Long Xiangtian felt relieved when he heard the little fat man say that he was cautious with him. He estimated that the person who came to him was not here to ask for an explanation, but to apologize. Then Long Xiangtian told the little fat man about the incident in which someone came to him to cause trouble and was beaten up by Long Xiangtian.
The little fat man also laughed when he heard about this. He didn't expect that the housekeeper would be so stupid as to go to Long Xiangtian's store to cause trouble. He must have no brains.
Just as the fat man was chatting and laughing, there was a light knock on the door, interrupting their conversation. The fat man opened the door, and in came Zhang Lun, the housekeeper.
Actually, Zhang Lun had come before, but before he knocked on the door, he heard Long Xiangtian talking about today's events. He then wanted to listen to Long Xiangtian's attitude outside so that he could be prepared. Unexpectedly, it was the little fat man who was talking all the time. Long Xiangtian didn't express any opinions, so he couldn't help but go in directly.
What Zhang Lun didn't know was that he was just a butler after all, and his cultivation was not high, so Long Xiangtian had already discovered him when he first arrived, but didn't point it out.
"Master Long, I am Zhang Lun, the chief steward of the Zhang family." Zhang Lun recognized Long Xiangtian as soon as he came in. The feeling Long Xiangtian gave him at this moment was different from those young masters of the family he had met before. Long Xiangtian gave him a very cold and murderous feeling, which made Zhang Lun a little flustered, and he didn't know whether this matter today could end well.
"Oh? Butler Zhang is here to stand up for his men?" Long Xiangtian's expression did not change because of Zhang Lun's appearance, and he said lightly.
"This..." Zhang Lun didn't know why. He was used to big scenes, but now he was a little flustered in front of such a young boy. However, he quickly calmed down and explained, "Master Long, you misunderstood me. I heard that someone dared to pretend to be the butler of our Zhang Mansion and cause trouble at your place. I was afraid that you would misunderstand, so I came here without stopping to explain to you."
"Oh? So that person is not the housekeeper of your Zhang Mansion at all?" Long Xiangtian didn't quite believe what Zhang Lun said, but still pretended to be confused and asked.
"Of course, you are the young lady's sworn brother. Those servants would never dare to provoke you." Although Zhang Lun could see that Long Xiangtian didn't believe what he said at all, he still said with a smile.
After hearing what Zhang Lun said, Long Xiangtian asked innocently, "They must be just a group of drunk and arrogant people."
"Of course, of course." Zhang Lun felt relieved when he saw that Long Xiangtian did not insist on making a fuss. He did not expect that Long Xiangtian would be so easy to talk to.
In fact, Zhang Lun did not think that Long Xiangtian was stupid enough to lie to him. It was just that Zhang Lun wanted to find a way out for the Zhang family. After all, it would be ridiculous if this matter were spread out. But if it was the nonsense of a drunk man, then the Zhang family would save face.
The reason why Long Xiangtian was so easy to talk to was not because he had no temper, but he felt that he was Zhang Yerong's brother after all, and could be considered half a member of the Zhang family, and he would not do anything to betray his own family.
However, Long Xiangtian's decision not to investigate further did not mean that he would not pursue the matter. Before Zhang Lun could be happy for long, Long Xiangtian said helplessly, "Today's matter has been resolved, but if that drunk and arrogant guy appears in front of me again in the future, I will be somewhat affected in my mood."
Since that person had provoked Long Xiangtian, Long Xiangtian would not let him off easily. Previously, Long Xiangtian had spared his life because of the crowds, but it was different now.
Zhang Lun saw Long Xiangtian speaking again, and thought that Long Xiangtian had another request, and his heart suddenly tightened. Unexpectedly, he was asked to deal with those people, and then he felt much more relaxed, and assured Long Xiangtian: "Master Long, please rest assured that those people will never appear in front of you again."
After saying that, a hint of viciousness appeared on Zhang Lun's face. These people had caused him a lot of trouble, so there was no need to keep them.
