"Granddaughter, you are back." Dugu Fengyun with white hair appeared.
The old head of the Dugu family walked slowly from the end of the corridor and looked at Dugu Nian and Fang Lin with extremely complicated expressions.
This is Dugu Nian's grandfather. He tried his best to prevent Dugu Nian from becoming the Crown Princess of Xuan Kingdom, but later he chose to compromise due to pressure.
Dugu Nian has never hated Dugu Fengyun, because he is the head of the Dugu family and is responsible for the entire Dugu family. The pressure he bears is unimaginable.
At that time, the Dugu family was suffering from internal and external troubles. Others only saw that the Dugu family was prosperous and glorious in Xuan Kingdom, and seemed to be arrogant.
But in fact, every family has sutras that are difficult to recite.
Dugu Fengyun had been preventing the marriage at that time and was already under tremendous pressure. Also, because of the second master Dugu, many people in the family were optimistic about the marriage, so much so that Dugu Fengyun was not a human being inside and outside.
You must know that Dugu Nian is his most beloved granddaughter, how could he marry the prince Zhou Yishui so easily
In fact, Dugu Fengyun did not really agree to the marriage because of pressure at that time. The reason why the wedding was still going ahead was entirely because Dugu Nian agreed.
Because Dugu Nian thought that Fang Lin was dead at that time, she was heartbroken and decided to marry Zhou Yishui, and then look for opportunities to avenge Fang Lin.
Dugu Fengyun asked Dugu Nian repeatedly at that time. If she was unwilling, Dugu Fengyun could risk his life and send Dugu Nian out of the Xuan Kingdom safely, and would not let her marry someone she didn't want to marry.
Therefore, Dugu Nian doesn't have much affection for the Dugu family in his heart, but he still has deep feelings for his grandfather Dugu Fengyun.
"Grandpa, I'm back." Dugu Nian suppressed all pressure and showed a slight smile on his face.
Although the smile is shallow, it is more genuine than when facing other people from the Dugu family.
Dugu Fengyun walked closer, with a smile on his face, looking at his granddaughter and nodding: "It'll be good to come back."
Dugu Nian looked at his grandfather. He hadn't seen him for a few years. His grandfather was really old. His hair was not much white at first, but now it was full of white hair. His face had many more wrinkles and his figure was smaller than I've been a little rickety in the past.
In the past seven years, my grandfather may have been thinking about him day and night.
"Grandpa, your granddaughter is back to see you. How have you been these past few years?" Dugu Nian gently held Dugu Fengyun's hand and said softly.
Dugu Fengyun inadvertently wiped away the sparkling eyes and said with a smile: "Grandpa is very good, as long as you still remember grandpa."
At this time, Dugu Fengyun looked at Fang Lin.
Fang Lin cupped his fists and saluted with a very respectful attitude: "Junior Fang Lin, I would like to pay my respects to the head of the Dugu family."
This Dugu Fengyun can be said to be the most senior figure in the Xuan Kingdom today, and he is also the biological grandfather of Dugu Nian. Fang Lin naturally has to respect him.
"Master Fang's name is very popular among the old man. He is not worthy of the master's worship." Dugu Fengyun did not put on the airs of an elder and called Fang Lin master. This was to show respect to Fang Lin. After all, Fang Lin had already He is a master of alchemy. Dugu Fengyun calls him master, and there is no fault at all.
"The head of the Dugu family is the elder, so he naturally deserves the respect of the younger generation. In front of you, there is only the younger generation Fang Lin, and there is no alchemy master." Fang Lin said with a smile.
Dugu Fengyun is old, but his eyesight is not old. He thinks he can see people accurately, and he has never made a mistake in his life.
In his eyes, Fang Lin didn't look too stunning at first glance, but he had a restrained charm. He was one of those people who hides his weapon and waits for the moment. Although he has an edge, he doesn't show it. .
This kind of person usually has great achievements.
Moreover, Dugu Fengyun once witnessed the shocking battle outside Xuandu, and later often heard about Fang Lin's reputation in the Upper Three Kingdoms, so he had more comments about this son.
In Dugu Fengyun's view, Fang Lin is more like a very contradictory person, doing things rationally, but always making surprising moves.
Moreover, this is a true desperado, and God knows what he will do under the impulse of impulse.
Dugu Fengyun was both reassured and worried about letting his granddaughter be with such a guy.
Dugu Fenglei and Dugu Xiong also stood up at this time. Their faces were a little pale, especially Dugu Fenglei, who was not only pale, but also a little ugly.
He didn't even dare to look at Fang Lin and Dugu Nian at all. The experience of going through hell just now made him extremely frightened at the moment.
Dugu Xiong and the other three looked at Dugu Nian in awe. They didn't expect that after seven or eight years, Dugu Nian would become so powerful.
And the three of them also had some thoughts in their minds. Since Dugu Nian is so powerful now, the dilemma that the Dugu family is facing now may also be solved.
Of course, this was just what the three of them thought in their hearts, and they did not dare to say it directly.
Everyone can see that Dugu Nian is not very enthusiastic about the Dugu family. He may even be disgusted with the family because of forcing Dugu Nian to marry Zhou Yishui, the crown prince of the Xuan Kingdom.
If you insist on begging her to take action, it may be counterproductive.
Dugu Fenglei left without saying a word. As an elder of the Dugu family, he was embarrassed in front of Dugu Nian, a junior. Naturally, he had no face to say anything.
Fang Lin and Dugu Nian followed Dugu Fengyun into the courtyard where he lived.
"Granddaughter, have you ever hated grandpa in your heart? Have you ever hated our Dugu family?" Dugu Fengyun asked with complicated words.
Dugu Nian smiled slightly: "I have never hated Grandpa."
Dugu Fengyun nodded. He understood what Dugu Nian meant. He did not hate Dugu Fengyun, but it was hard to say whether Dugu Nian hated Dugu family or not.
"Sit down." Dugu Fengyun waved his hand, and Fang Lin and Dugu Nian sat down next to the stone bench.
Dugu Fengyun glanced at Fang Lin, with a lot of doubts in his heart. After all, Fang Lin betrayed the Dan Alliance seven years ago. There was no news after that, and he was rumored to be dead by many people.
Dugu Fengyun didn't ask anything. Now as long as he saw that Dugu Nian was fine and Fang Lin was by her side, he felt relieved.
"Why haven't you come home these years? Even if you don't come back, it would be good to contact your family." Dugu Fengyun said, although his tone was understated, it was full of the longing for his granddaughter over the years.
Dugu Nian felt guilty: "I have made Grandpa miss me. I have been traveling around these years and encountered many things."
Dugu Fengyun looked at Fang Lin and then at his granddaughter. Although he didn't know what happened to the two of them over the years, it was not easy to think about it.
But it doesn't matter, as long as people live.
"Grandpa, where are my parents? Are they okay?" Dugu Nian asked.
ps: The second update is here. I continue to code. I went to bed early last night. However, because I was in a downtown area, there was a lot of people outside at midnight. A group of lonely ghosts came out to celebrate the New Year, and a group of riders. Mentally retarded children on motorcycles, here I wish those who ride motorcycles in the middle of the night and press the accelerator to die early.
