Chapter 682: Chapter 681: He Will Come Here Looking for Me
After the Great Elder and Ruan Zhengquan had left, a smile finally appeared on Ruan Hongying’s face.
Today, Ruan Hongying was really too happy.
Because, Ruan Hongying finally felt that sense of exhilaration and vindication.
Although Ruan Hongying herself was very powerful, now, when she saw her own child growing up and even surpassing Guiyun Palace’s number one talent, her heart naturally felt extremely happy.
Ruan Hongying came to Lin Fan’s side and softly asked, "Fan, are you alright?"
Lin Fan shook his head and said, "Mother, don’t worry, I’m fine."
"Good, so good!"
Ruan Hongying said happily, "Today is the happiest day for me, so good, really so good, today I finally felt the feeling of exhilaration, hehe!"
When Lin Fan saw his mother so happy, his heart was also very happy.
In this moment, Lin Fan finally felt that, actually, being able to make the people around him happy is also a very happy thing.
Ruan Hongying said again, "Alright Fan, let’s go celebrate properly!"
Saying this, Ruan Hongying seemed to suddenly think of something, her eyes slowly scanning over the people around her, she said, "Right, I now announce that from today henceforth, Lin Fan is our Guiyun Palace’s Young Palace Master. All present, does anyone have an objection? If you have any objections, speak now!"
"No objections!"
"I have no objections either!"
"I fully support Lin Fan becoming our Guiyun Palace’s Young Palace Master!"
The high-level members of Guiyun Palace who had previously been aligned with the Great Elder now one after another expressed their support for Lin Fan.
Because they knew that the Great Elder’s side was already on the decline.
Furthermore, considering Ruan Hongying was already so formidable, and now Lin Fan was too, in the future with them joining hands, who in the entire Guiyun Palace could be their match?
Thus, these people readily submitted.
"Very good!"
Ruan Hongying nodded her head, satisfied and said, "Since everyone has agreed to my son becoming the Young Palace Master of Guiyun Palace, then, I hope that in the future, no one will plot behind his back. My son’s command is my command; if anyone dares to disobey, then I’m sorry, don’t blame me for being unsympathetic!"
Ruan Hongying’s voice wasn’t very loud.
But it carried an indescribable authority.
The surrounding high-level members all looked at Ruan Hongying with somewhat unfamiliar eyes.
Because they had not expected that Ruan Hongying would say such words.
At the same time, they also realized Lin Fan’s very high status in Ruan Hongying’s heart, that from now on, even if they offended Ruan Hongying, they must never offend Lin Fan.
"Alright Fan, let’s go!"
Ruan Hongying then directly said to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan nodded his head without saying much and then followed Ruan Hongying quickly and left.
They soon arrived at Ruan Hongying’s grand hall, where Ruan Hongying said, "Fan, come here quickly, let me check you to see if you’re hurt."
Ruan Hongying was very concerned about Lin Fan.
Lin Fan said with a bitter smile, "Mother, rest assured, I really am fine, no need to check."
Ruan Hongying became somewhat displeased after hearing Lin Fan’s words, saying: "Fan, are you not even listening to your mother’s words now?"
"Eh!"
Lin Fan was somewhat helpless.
In the end, Lin Fan could only honestly come over to Ruan Hongying’s side. Ruan Hongying carefully checked Lin Fan’s body, and after making sure there were no other accidents, she nodded and said, "Good, as I thought, nothing is wrong!"
After pausing, Ruan Hongying excitedly said: "Fan, you really have given me so many surprises. I knew before that with your ability, defeating Ruan Zhengquan would be no problem, but what I didn’t expect was that Ruan Zhengquan, in front of you, turned out to be so helpless? Hehe, I’m happy, I’m really so happy!"
Ruan Hongying kept giggling while speaking.
Lin Fan didn’t know what to say either.
After a good while, Ruan Hongying finally returned to normal and asked Lin Fan, "By the way, Fan, to reward your beautiful victory today, tell me, what reward do you want? Let me know!"
"Eh!"
Lin Fan was speechless again and finally shook his head, saying, "Mother, I don’t need any reward."
"No way!"
Ruan Hongying said righteously, "You must make a request of me, rest assured, your mother will try her best to satisfy you."
After thinking for a while, Lin Fan said, "Since that is the case, mother, I would like to request that... If the Great Elder and others come looking for me, no matter how I deal with it, you should not interfere."
Ruan Hongying was taken aback and asked, "What are you saying? The Great Elder will come looking for you?"
Lin Fan nodded and said seriously, "Yes, he will come here looking for me."
Ruan Hongying looked at Lin Fan, quickly thought of something, and asked, "You rascal, did you pull some trick on Ruan Zhengquan?"
Lin Fan didn’t hide anything and nodded, "Mother, people like the Great Elder are cunning and sly. If we do not use some tricks, they will hardly be honest."
"You little rascal!"
Ruan Hongying said irritably, "It seems, you are just like your father, always resorting to some schemes and machinations."
After a pause, Ruan Hongying added, "Fine, if the Great Elder really comes looking for you, I won’t interfere. Rest assured, Fan, from now on, go ahead and do as you please, whatever you do, your mother will support you."
Afterward, Ruan Hongying immediately gave orders to prepare a table of very fine dishes and drinks because, according to her, it was time to celebrate properly.
Lin Fan felt very helpless about this arrangement from Ruan Hongying.
To be honest, Lin Fan was really not used to such bustling scenes.
But since Ruan Hongying liked it, Lin Fan did not want to go against her wishes.
Fortunately, after the table was laden with sumptuous food and drinks, no other people joined them—it was just the two of them, mother and son, eating and drinking, the atmosphere very warm and harmonious.
During the meal, Ruan Hongying kept serving dishes to Lin Fan, occasionally gazing at him with constant giggles, Ruan Hongying’s demeanor resembling that of a child.
Lin Fan did not speak.
But in Lin Fan’s heart, he felt very warm.
Whether it was Lin Fan of the past life or this life, he had almost never felt a mother’s love.
And now, Lin Fan finally experienced the warmth of maternal love and felt immensely happy.
To be honest, if it were not for the fact that Lin Fan had important matters to attend to, he really wished that time could just freeze in this moment.
Seeing Ruan Hongying still serving him dishes, Lin Fan finally said, "Mother, you don’t have to keep serving me. Please eat as well!"
