He Has a Dragon

Chapter 482: 30 Years of Searching for a Sword

"Father, I am Wang Le. [First release]"

Young Master Wang heard Mu Zhengnan's voice and said quickly and respectfully.

Mu Zhengnan on the phone said with a hint of surprise, "Xiao Le, what's the matter?"

"I just returned to Feicheng and wanted to visit you in Yulinyuan, but I was afraid that you would be away on business, so I made a call first." Wang Le replied to the phone.

"Then come over now. There are no guests at home tonight." Mu Zhengnan said simply.

Immediately, Wang Le ended the call with Mu Zhengnan without saying anything else, started the car and drove towards Yulinyuan on Qixia Road, which he had not been to for a long time.

About twenty minutes later, when Wang Le's car passed the inspection and stopped in front of Mu Zhengnan's villa in Yulinyuan, he saw the other party standing on the front steps with his hands behind his back, waiting for him.

"Father, it's cold outside, so let's go inside."

Wang Le hurriedly walked out of the car, walked quickly to Mu Zhengnan, and said respectfully, somewhat flattered.

Mu Zhengnan waved his hand, and then walked down the steps. At the same time, he said lightly: "Come with me for a walk."

How dare Young Master Wang disobey him? He obediently followed his father-in-law and took a walk along the road under the street lamp.

"I have been working in Jiangnan for more than 25 years. I started from the grassroots level in the most rural areas and worked hard all the way. I walked on thin ice until today, I went straight to the provincial capital. I will spend the best time of my life in this land. I am dedicated to my work. , with some achievements, it can be regarded as worthy of one’s own conscience.”

As Mu Zhengnan walked, he spoke in a low voice, as if talking to himself.

"Are you leaving Jiangnan?"

Wang Le, who was following half a step behind, felt something in his heart and asked softly.

Mu Zhengnan stopped, turned to look at Wang Le, who had also stopped, and smiled: "Xiao Le, do you know what my old father-in-law dislikes most about your son-in-law?"

Wang Le was startled and shook his head helplessly.

Mu Zhengnan didn't look at Wang Le anymore and continued to walk. After a while, he said calmly: "You are so smart. Sometimes you can be terrifyingly smart. If I were your opponent, I would definitely win." I will do everything possible to kill you, otherwise,

Can't sleep. "

At this point, Mu Zhengnan stopped again, turned around, looked directly at Wang Le, and said seriously: "Don't be too arrogant, there is a word called Jinyi Night Walk, do you understand?"

Wang Le was shocked, a sudden look flashed in his eyes, and he bowed and said: "I understand, kid. I will definitely keep a low profile in the future and no longer show off my sharp edge."

Mu Zhengnan looked appreciative, shook his head, and said: "If a tree is as beautiful as a forest, the wind will destroy it. Even if you are as wise as the sea, you will inevitably make miscalculations, so it is best to keep a low profile."

After a pause, Mu Zhengnan sighed and continued: "This time my father asked you to go to Hong Kong Island to take charge of all the affairs of the Mu family there. By the time I knew it, it was already too late. Otherwise, I would have stopped you from going there. , Fortunately, you were also very careful and knew how to retreat bravely, without leaving anything to be criticized on Hong Kong Island."

When Wang Le heard that his father-in-law objected to his going to Hong Kong Island to help the Mu family snatch huge profits, his heart warmed and he was moved.

This is really treating Wang Le as his own child and not using him as a chess piece.

"If anything happens to the Mu family in the future, try to get involved as little as possible. I don't want you to carry the burden of the family." Mu Zhengnan said slowly.

Wang Le's heart trembled, and he quickly lowered his head, not wanting his father-in-law to see the redness of his eyes.

For a moment, I didn't know what language to express the feeling in my heart, so I could only remain silent.

After a while, Mu Zhengnan said quietly: "My child, don't let hatred blind you. If your mother was still alive, I believe she would not want to see such a situation."

Wang Le, who lowered his head, froze. He knew what his father-in-law meant. He was talking about his relationship with the Su family, or more accurately, his father-son relationship with his biological father, Su Yunping, who had not been in contact with each other for a long time.

"Father, I know, Xi Yan also said the same, the boy will learn to face it and stop escaping." Wang Le raised his head and looked at Mu Zhengnan and said seriously.

Mu Zhengnan looked at the other party for a long time, and after judging the authenticity of this sentence, he said with relief: "That's good."

"Go back and rest early, it's getting late."

Immediately, he saw Mu Zhengnan walking back. After walking a few steps, he paused, turned his back to Wang Le, and said calmly: "Before leaving Jiangnan, I will go to Lefang County to pay homage to you. your mother."

After finishing speaking, Mu Zhengnan said no more and strode straight towards his villa.

Wang Le stood behind him, staring blankly at the old father-in-law disappearing into the tree-lined path around the corner of the road.

By the time Wang Le went to pick up the car in front of Mu Zhengnan's villa, the lights in the other party's villa had already been extinguished.

Tonight's meeting with Mu Zhengnan made Wang Le know that his old father-in-law was not like ordinary politicians, rational, calm and decisive in killing.

At least in front of him, Wang Le, Mu Zhengnan was not such a person. He was more emotional, and the weight of friendship moved Wang Le.

Without thinking too much, Wang Le knew that his mother Wang Xiaodie must be the most important factor why his father-in-law chose Jiangnan as the place to start his official career when he was young, and stayed there for twenty-five years.

I heard Mu Xiyan say that when she was young, her father-in-law took a gun to kill Su Yunping for a woman.

At that time, when Wang Le heard it for the first time, he didn't think so, but when he learned that the woman was his own mother, everything changed.

Life is often so dramatic, more exciting and more ups and downs than movies, and this is the biggest feeling in Wang Le's heart.

Mu Zhengnan, standing by the window in the dark study, couldn't help but sigh as he watched Wang Le stand in front of the door for a while before driving away.

Immediately, Mu Zhengnan turned around, reached out and turned on the light in the study, then walked to the desk, picked up the brush, and wrote on the rice paper that had been spread out:

Thirty years of searching for a sword,

Several times the leaves fell and branches sprouted.

Ever since I saw a peach blossom,

Even now I have no doubt.

After a long time, the ink on the rice paper had dried, and Mu Zhengnan put down the brush in his hand. His always bright eyes had long been blurred, and the lines of his face, which were originally as hard as a knife, had become softer.

After a while, Mu Zhengnan rolled up the rice paper on which the poem was written, walked to the trash can, took out a lighter, lit it, threw it into the bucket, and watched it burn slowly.

The firelight shone on Mu Zhengnan's face, constantly changing.

There are some things and people in this world that only you know, and that is enough.

ps, this poem is borrowed from Huang Yi’s classic martial arts novel "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty"
