"Alright, let's go. Don't you want to introduce to your father?"
Su Chen smiled slightly, then patted Lan Xinyi on the shoulder and continued walking toward the main building.
As for Zhu Jun, he didn't pay any attention to him!
He never took this Zhu Jun seriously before, and now even less so!
After Su Chen and Lan Xinyi entered the main building, they arrived at a room.
This room was clearly ant for receiving guests, with so teacups on the table and leftover tea inside.
At this mont, there was a middle-aged man in his fifties sitting there, exuding a natural aura of authority!
Su Chen was slightly shocked upon seeing this man, as he gave off an incredibly powerful feeling!
"Father."
Lan Xinyi called out upon entering, after having adjusted her nervous emotions outside the door.
"Xinyi, you're here!"
The man smiled warmly when he saw Lan Xinyi, and the aura of authority seed to vanish instantly!
"And this is...?"
He then noticed Su Chen, who had co in with Lan Xinyi, and asked.
"Father, this is Mr. Su Chen, whom I've ntioned to you before."
Lan Xinyi introduced.
"So you are Mr. Su!"
Upon hearing this, Lan Minghe imdiately stood up, ca over to Su Chen, and gratefully shook his hand:
"So you are Mr. Su! Last ti in the ruins, it was really thanks to you for saving Xinyi. I've been wanting to properly thank you!"
"Lan Uncle, you're too kind. It was the right thing to do."
Su Chen replied with a smile.
Previously, Lan Xinyi had told Su Chen that she had ntioned to her father about being rescued by him from a demon beast encounter, so her father wanted to thank him in person!
Of course, Lan Xinyi only told her father about this matter and nothing else.
"Father, this is a gift from Su Chen for you."
Lan Xinyi handed the box to Lan Minghe with a smile, looking as if it was a gift from herself!
Lan Minghe glanced at his daughter, smiled, and then said to Su Chen:
"It's too generous of you, Mr. Su. How can I accept this?"
With that, Lan Minghe opened the unassuming box...
"It's nothing, just the first ti visiting, so it's appropriate."
Su Chen also smiled and said.
When Lan Minghe opened the box, a dazzling light burst forth, illuminating the slightly dim room!
Lying quietly in the box was a pristine, translucent diamond, its surface sparkled with brilliant colors!
"This...!"
Lan Minghe initially didn't think much of it, but it turned out to be a diamond!
Although Lan Minghe didn't know what kind of diamond it was, it was undoubtedly of imnse value!
In terms of Huaxia currency, it could be worth hundreds of millions or even billions!
"It's so beautiful!"
Lan Xinyi couldn't help but exclaim.
"This is too valuable! Mr. Su, please take it back!"
Lan Minghe imdiately said.
"Lan Uncle, Xinyi and I are good friends; it's just a gift, nothing more!"
Su Chen replied with a smile.
To be honest, among Su Chen's treasures, there were plenty of such exquisite diamonds.
Not knowing what gift to give, he just casually picked a diamond!
Like last year, for Lin Ruoxue's mother's birthday, he also gave a superb diamond!
"Lan Uncle, if you make take back a gift I've given, wouldn't that put in an awkward position?"
Su Chen continued with a smile.
These words left Lan Minghe unsure of how to respond. He paused and said:
"Alright, I'll accept it, but if I pass it on to soone else, would Mr. Su mind?"
"Of course not. Since I gifted it to Lan Uncle, it's yours, and you can do as you see fit."
Su Chen shrugged nonchalantly.
"Xinyi, I see you like this diamond quite a bit, why don't you keep it?"
Lan Minghe closed the box and handed it to Lan Xinyi with a smile.
"Ah!"
Lan Xinyi was slightly startled, then happily accepted it and said:
"Thank you, Father!"
Seeing this scene, Lan Minghe suddenly understood. He had only been testing a mont ago!
He knew his daughter well; her joy wasn't just about the diamond but more about the fact that the diamond was from this young man!
It seed that his beloved daughter indeed had so unusual feelings towards this young man!
He had sensed this a bit when they entered the room, and now he was even more certain!
"Su Chen, my father and I have sothing to discuss. Why don't you go out and look around for a bit?"
At this, Lan Xinyi said with so apologetic tone.
"Alright then, Lan Uncle, I'll step out for now. Happy birthday!"
Su Chen said with a smile.
"Thank you!"
Lan Minghe nodded.
Su Chen then walked out. It was only natural for the father and daughter to have so private conversation.
"Xinyi, what is it you want to say?"
Lan Minghe asked with a smile.
"Father, please help Su Chen!"
Lan Xinyi pleaded worriedly.
"Help him? What's wrong with him?"
Lan Minghe asked, puzzled.
"Father, you know about the death of Zhou Hao from the Liewu Sect in the ruins, right?"
"Yes, what about it?"
Lan Minghe was even more confused as Lan Xinyi suddenly brought up Zhou Hao.
"Could it be that Zhou Hao's death is related to this Su Chen?"
Lan Minghe suddenly had a flash of insight, blurting out with disbelief on his face!
"Actually, Zhou Hao was killed by Su Chen."
Lan Xinyi nodded.
As soon as Lan Xinyi finished speaking, Lan Minghe was stunned!
The young man who had been so courteous and polite, with a warm smile, was the one who killed the son of the Sect Master of Liewu Sect, Zhou Hao?
"Actually, not just Zhou Hao, but Lan Haifeng was also killed by Su Chen."
Lan Xinyi continued.
This ti, Lan Minghe was completely taken aback!
"What exactly happened? Tell everything!"
Lan Minghe instantly beca serious, speaking in a grave tone.
Lan Xinyi then briefly recounted the events that occurred in the ruins' ruins to her father.
Of course, she did not ntion Su Chen breaking the formation or anything about what was beneath the stone chamber!
She naturally trusted her father, but since it involved so of Su Chen's secrets, she chose to leave them out, respecting Su Chen!
Even so, Lan Minghe was left in awe!
He could hardly believe that the young man not only killed Zhou Hao and Lan Haifeng but also managed to send Zhu Jun running in defeat?
Who was Zhu Jun?
He was one of the top ten prodigies!
If these words hadn't co from his own daughter's mouth, he would never have believed them!
