Chapter 850 — Leaving Again

Years of Heartflutter

Yang Cenbin was back this time to reunite with Chen Shutang and the others at home, to spend a few days with his parents—and then he would set out on a new journey!

The matter of the Center and Dr. Ban Lin had not been resolved, and Yang Yongjin might well relax on that account.

On this trip to Miaojiang, in dealing with the Right Elder Zhang'e, the one who had contributed the most was actually Dong Jun. It could be said that the Right Elder's present downfall was entirely Dong Jun's doing. And Yang Shuoxuan had promised Dong Jun that upon returning, he would help Dong Jun deal with the Center and Dr. Ban Lin—Yang Ce could not go back on his word.

True, Yang Ce could have put it off for a few days, but having gone through this Miaojiang mission against the Right Elder Zhang'e, and having known that feeling of days dragging like years when the Right Elder could not be dealt with, Yang Ce understood Dong Jun's feelings very well.

Dong Jun at this moment was probably just like Yan—anxious, every day dragging like a year! As long as the business with Ban Lin remained unresolved, neither he nor his sister Alice could let down their guard and live in peace and security. So Yang Ce had to join Dong Jun as soon as possible and help him settle this matter!

So Yang Yongjin had no choice but to speak up: "Dad, Mom, godfather, godmother, Second Brother, Sister-in-law, and my wives—there is something I must tell you in advance..."

Yang Yanzhou paused here. He was deeply embarrassed, but there was no help for it.

"Daming, what is it? So mysterious?" Yang's mother looked at Yang Yanchuan with some puzzlement.

"It's like this..." Yang Ce sighed. "After coming back this time, I may not be able to stay more than a few days. I'll have to leave again..."

"Leave again?" Yang's mother was instantly taken aback, frowning. "What do you mean? Wasn't this mission supposed to be the last one? Why do you have to leave again?"

"This mission was indeed the Mysterious Investigation Bureau's last one, but this time I'm leaving not for a mission, but to help a friend..." Yang Yanzhou said. "Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law should already know what this is about..."

Liu Yan and Chen Xiaojing nodded, of course. They knew about Dong Jun's affair, and they knew that Yang Cenbin wanted to help Dong Jun after returning this time, so it was no surprise that Yang Ce would have to leave again.

"Dong Jun?" Wang Yanqiu had guessed Yang Juehuan's intention at once—and as for Dong Jun's thoughts and meaning, Wang Yanqiu understood those best of all.

Dong Jun was no stranger to Chen Shutang and the others, nor to the Fatty. Hearing Wang Yanqiu say this, they all more or less understood.

"That's right, it's Dong Jun." Yang Yuting nodded. "In this Miaojiang operation, the reason I was able to successfully deal with the Right Elder Zhang'e owes a great deal to Dong Jun. Without him, it might have been a long time before I could complete the mission. Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law know this from their own experience..."

"Yes. My parents both know how long Xiaojing and I have been away from home..." Liu Yan nodded. "All these years, trapped in the Right Elder Zhang'e's territory in Miaojiang, unable to leave—if not for Yang Ce and Dong Jun, we couldn't have come back now. Dong Jun truly deserves the greatest credit for this operation."

"Then is this business with Dong Jun very troublesome, very hard to handle?" Yang's mother asked, and rather than trying to stop him, she inquired.

"Hard to say for now. If it goes quickly, it might be done in a few days; if it goes slowly, it could take some time to maneuver." Yang Yanzhou said. "But either way, it will mean going abroad."

"Going abroad too!" Yang's mother grew a little worried. "Will there be danger?"

"Danger, certainly not!" Yang Hengye said. "Mom, your son has now inherited the Right Elder Zhang'e's power—invulnerable to blades and bullets, impervious to water and fire. I may look like a normal person now, but when danger comes, the super-revised Jingang Gu on my body can activate passively. If you don't believe me, just try cutting me with a knife and you'll see!"

"What?" Yang's mother was astonished at Yang Juehuan's words. "You mean you're now invulnerable to blades and bullets? Isn't that the same as Superman?"

"About the same!" Yang Ce thought it over—he really was rather like Superman. Not only invulnerable to blades and bullets and impervious to water and fire, but also able to see through things and see at a distance. What difference was there between that and Superman?

"Auntie, I can vouch for that. There is almost nothing left in this world that can harm Yang Juehuan," Liu Yan said. "So Yang Cenbin's going to help this time is only a matter of time—just a question of whether it's troublesome or not. There won't be any danger!"

"No danger, that's good!" What Yang's mother feared most was danger. Hearing Yang Yanzhou before, she had still been a little doubtful, but with Liu Yan vouching for him, she no longer suspected it was false—only Yang Cenbin's Superman-like abilities left her deeply shaken.

"Then this time, will it be like before—unable to contact the family?" Yang Cheyan asked.

"Of course not this time. I can get in touch anytime." Yang Yanzhou said. "And if I want to come back, I can come back anytime. There's no problem at all."

"That's good. In that case, Dong Jun helped you so much—when he asks for your help, you should give it your all," Yang Cheyan said. "You don't need to worry about how the rest of us feel. Only when this business of yours is finished will it be time for all of us to be reunited."

"That's right. It happens that Sister Sun Jie and the others and I are helping Dad gradually transfer the company and its assets to X Island. Since you've already decided to settle on X Island with us, we have to make preparations in advance anyway," Chen Shutang said as well. "And during this time, you can't be of much help anyway. It works out perfectly—we'll be busy with ours, you go be busy with yours. Neither gets in the way of the other."

"Uh..." Yang Ce had originally thought he would need to spend a great deal of breath persuading his family and his wives, but he had never expected everyone to be so open-minded, so supportive of his helping Dong Jun, without the slightest objection. This rather gratified him. "All right, then it's settled. I'll get started in the next few days. The sooner it's resolved, the sooner it's done with. Once everything is settled, we'll go live in seclusion on X Island!"

And so the matter was settled. After dinner, Liu Yan's family and the Fatty left first, while Yang Cheyan and Yang's mother stayed behind—there were plenty of rooms, after all. But since this villa was the love nest of Chen Shutang and the other women and Yan, and Yang Cheyan and Yang's mother knew full well that Yang Ce and the women would surely be like newlyweds after a long parting and that tonight would be anything but quiet, they as father- and mother-in-law did not want to be in the way. So they decided to go stay at Wang Yanqiu's villa in a little while.

For now, Yang Cheyan was discussing the company and asset transfer with Sun Jie, while Yang's mother chatted with the women!
