Clearing Skies After the Rain

Luo Yan was also confused.

Ever since the 'Qi Gazing Eyes' had mutated into 'Obstacle Breaking Dharma Eye.'

He had developed 'photographic memory.'

But he didn't remember seeing the Bureau Chief of the Local Security Bureau before.

Now that the person asked.

Out of politeness, Luo Yan replied concisely: "Visiting."

Visiting?

Chen Kang'an's eyes darted to Zeng Shan.

He immediately understood.

He waved his hand, signaling the security guards to step back.

Then he smiled and said to Zeng Shan, "Student Zeng, can you tell me why you resorted to violence?"

Zeng Shan snorted and recounted, in full detail, how Chen Xinhou had been arrogant and insulting.

Later.

Chen Xinhou impatiently said, "Uncle, why are you wasting your breath with him?"

"Just cuff this kid already."

Before he finished speaking.

His vision suddenly went black.

Slap!

A crisp sound of a slap echoed.

Chen Xinhou was sent reeling, dizzy and disoriented.

He thought it was Zeng Shan again.

He steadied himself and looked.

The one who hit him was actually his uncle, Chen Kang'an.

"Uncle, what are you..."

"Shut up!"

Chen Kang'an interrupted his nephew.

He first smiled at Zeng Shan and said, "Student Zeng, you hit him well."

Then he turned to his nephew.

"Chen Xinhou, Chen Xinhou, you truly are an unteachable fool."

"I brought you to the bureau, thinking I could discipline you on behalf of your father."

"But look at you."

"You're using your uncle's name to throw your weight around everywhere."

"If Student Zeng hadn't hit you today, I would have taught you a lesson myself."

With that, he delivered another slap.

Chen Xinhou's face immediately swelled up like a pig's head.

Chen Kang'an pointed at his nose and said, "You, get back to the factory."

"Your work at the Local Security Bureau is done."

"Stop embarrassing me out here!"

Chen Xinhou wanted to say something more, but Chen Kang'an glared at him.

He immediately became too scared to utter a sound and slunk away with his tail between his legs.

Before leaving.

He glanced at Luo Yan.

His intuition told him.

His uncle's sudden 180-degree change in attitude.

Must be related to this student.

To be honest.

If it weren't for his uncle Chen Kang'an, he wouldn't have even known there was an 'outsider' in the Zeng family.

It couldn't be helped.

Luo Yan was just too low-key.

He didn't pay attention at all.

Chen Xinhou couldn't help but be confused.

Who exactly is this guy?

He actually made his uncle slap him twice.

The Zeng family was also stunned.

Especially Zeng Shan's parents.

Just now, the Local Security Bureau was aggressively trying to take their son away.

How, in the blink of an eye.

Did the Bureau Chief become reasonable and even turn against his own family?

At this moment, Chen Kang'an smiled at Zeng Shan's father again.

"I'm very sorry, my ignorant nephew caused you trouble."

Father Zeng quickly said, "Bureau Chief, you're too kind."

Chen Kang'an's eyes darted around, and he said, "I heard from student Zeng just now that your health isn't good?"

"Then don't go to the factory anymore."

"We happen to need a gatekeeper at our bureau. If you don't mind, you can come work for us instead."

"Although it's just a gatekeeper position, it's a formal one."

"Medical expenses can be reimbursed."

"And the work points are 1500, which is better than the factory."

"What do you think?"

Father Zeng was overjoyed.

A gatekeeper job was easy, medical expenses were reimbursed, and he got 500 more work points than at the factory.

Where could he find such a good deal?

He was immediately moved to tears.

Chen Kang'an glanced at Luo Yan again, then smiled and said, "We still have things to do, so we won't disturb you any longer. Goodbye."

Father and Mother Zeng quickly saw Chen Kang'an to the alley entrance.

Once in the car.

The adjutant asked, "Bureau Chief, who is that student Luo?"

Chen Kang'an smiled and said, "A Benefactor."

He did all this for Luo Yan's sake.

He wanted to leave a good impression on Luo Yan.

But from beginning to end, Chen Kang'an didn't say a word to Luo Yan.

This was precisely his cleverness.

He didn't want Luo Yan to think he was trying to curry favor.

Even if Luo Yan saw through it, it didn't matter.

Some things, when seen through but not spoken, leave room for maneuver.

They leave room for development.

Besides, this favor was insignificant.

The Luo family lost a son and didn't hold it against anyone.

What was this small matter he did?

Today's incident.

Was at most a stepping stone.

When Luo Yan's influence truly soared in the future, that would be when he would truly exert himself.

Chen Kang'an considered his own ability to handle affairs to be average.

But his judgment of people was excellent!

The Zeng family.

What was originally a disaster turned into a blessing in disguise, and the clouds cleared.

Moreover, Father Zeng unexpectedly received a great job.

This was something they could never have imagined before.

Mother Zeng patted her chest and said she needed to go offer thanks to the gods.

At this moment, Aunt Wang leaned over and took Luo Yan's hand. "Oh my, this student."

"The moment I saw you, I knew you weren't ordinary."

"Do you have a partner? Should Auntie introduce someone to you?"

Luo Yan narrowed his eyes, a little impatient.

His gaze naturally swept over the woman's neck.

His hand, holding the sword, gently pushed the sword guard.

The sword slid out of its sheath and back in.

Just like Luo Yan's mood at the moment.

Seeing this, Zeng Shan quickly shooed Aunt Wang away, lest she displease Luo Yan.

He continued, "Dad, Mom."

"Today, we escaped danger, all thanks to Luo Yan."

"Mom, quickly make him some Jianbing Guozi."

"I promised Luo Yan on the way that your Jianbing Guozi is incredibly delicious."

Zeng Shan wasn't stupid.

He understood why Chen Kang'an's attitude had suddenly changed.

Although he didn't know how Chen Kang'an could be so polite to Luo Yan.

He knew that today he wouldn't have to go to the Local Security Bureau, and his father had gotten a good position.

It was all Luo Yan's credit.

Father Zeng heard this and said, "How can we ask a student to eat Jianbing Guozi? It's such a happy occasion today, let's go to a restaurant."

Zeng Shan, knowing a little of Luo Yan's temperament, shook his head at this.

"Old Luo doesn't like crowded places, it's better to stay home."

"Mom, you go cook."

Luo Yan nodded in agreement.

Mother Zeng then said, "Alright, you entertain our guest, Mom will go make Jianbing Guozi."

Zeng Bao quickly said, "Mom, I'll help you."

Living room.

Luo Yan sat down.

Zeng Shan said sincerely, "Old Luo, thank you for today."

"Including today, you've helped me three times already."

"No need to say anything else."

"If there's ever anything you need me for, just ask."

"If I even frown, I'm not a man!"

Luo Yan glanced at him, then responded with a terse 'Mm'.

Soon, the Jianbing Guozi were served.

Luo Yan didn't fear the heat and picked one up.

He took a bite.

He felt the rich but not greasy meat filling wrapped beneath the dough.

Additionally, there were sour and sweet diced apple bits.

The fresh fruit aroma made the Jianbing Guozi even more layered.

Eating this snack, Luo Yan closed his eyes.

It was as if he had returned to the days before the 'Giant Beast Calamity'.

This taste.

He hadn't experienced it for three years.

"How is it?" Zeng Shan asked.

Luo Yan opened his eyes and looked at Mother Zeng. "Auntie, this is really delicious."

Mother Zeng beamed and put several more onto Luo Yan's plate. "If you like it, eat more."

"When you have holidays, bring Zeng Shan back more often."

"Auntie will make you delicious food."

In a daze, Luo Yan seemed to see a blurry figure.

"Go home quickly during your break, Mom will make you delicious food."

Luo Yan's vision instantly blurred.

He lowered his head and silently ate the Jianbing Guozi.

As he ate.

He felt the thin pancake in his mouth was a bit salty.
