Chapter 836: 208. Help Miaomiao Achieve Nobility (6000 words)_4
Time flew by like this, a whole morning passing in a blink.
At noon, when Fang Ze got off work, Hei Yu’s car was already waiting outside the Security Bureau. It took less than two minutes for Fang Ze to reach the Si Family manor. By that time, Councilor Jia had already arrived. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
He was accompanied by a highly skilled Yang Transformation master of the Si Family, watching the Si Family vassals train on the training field.
Seeing the lively scene, his face filled with memories and nostalgia. “I remember, when we were young, we also trained in this manor.”
“Back then, the family was thriving, subtly leading the trio of noble families in Xida State and even had significant fame throughout the Eastern Administrative Region.”
“Unexpectedly, more than a decade passed in the blink of an eye, and now only the Young Master remains from the main family.”
Saying this, Councilor Jia couldn’t help but sigh deeply…
At that moment, the Yang Transformation expert accompanying him opened his mouth to say something. But upon looking up, he saw Fang Ze had quietly arrived close by, so he quickly withheld his words and bowed deeply, saying, “Young Master!”
Hearing this address, Councilor Jia snapped out of his thoughts, then he turned to look towards Fang Ze. After hesitating for a second, he ultimately bowed deeply in respect and also greeted, “Young Master.”
Having heard what Councilor Jia said earlier, and seeing his current etiquette, Fang Ze nodded. It seemed this guy really did appear sincere about joining him. So without refraining or being too courteous, Fang Ze simply stated, “Mr. Jia, your intentions are appreciated. Let’s go inside and talk,” and with that, he turned and headed towards the grand hall of the manor.
Upon hearing this, Councilor Jia quickly straightened up and followed….
Soon, they reached the main hall of the manor.
By then, Hei Yu had already ordered tea and fruits to be prepared. Fang Ze sat in the main seat and gestured to the seat beside him, “Please sit, Mr. Jia.”
Councilor Jia courteously took his seat.
Fang Ze, watching him, couldn’t help but reminisce about their first meeting when Jia had been arrogant and overbearing. It felt like worlds apart, which led him to inquire, “Mr. Jia, I remember you previously had quite a few complaints about the Si Family. What makes you think of returning now?”
Hearing Fang Ze’s words, Councilor Jia chuckled and said, “Young Master is joking.”
“I indeed harbored some grievances against the family because of some past events. But it’s also true that where there’s affection, there’s grievance.”
“As for why I want to return to the Si Family now… it’s naturally because I am convinced by the Young Master’s wise and valiant leadership.”
Councilor Jia was an interesting speaker. Although his words were all superficial pleasantries, upon closer consideration, it seemed like he indeed spoke truthfully.
After all, stripping away his flowery language, his core message was clear: he had indeed harbored resentment against the Si Family due to past issues but also held some affection. If not for an unforeseen circumstance, he would not have thought of returning. But seeing that Fang Ze was a wise leader, he eagerly wanted to come back.
Thinking this, Fang Ze glanced at Councilor Jia and didn’t pursue the matter further. Some things were better left unsaid as everyone understood them; discussing too thoroughly could seem impolite.
With this in mind, Fang Ze simply smiled and said, “Mr. Jia, since you’re willing to return to the Si Family, I am of course warmly welcoming you. Welcome back to the Si Family!”
Upon hearing that Fang Ze was willing to accept him, Councilor Jia quickly stood up with a smile and bowed deeply, “Thank you, Young Master!” The bow was so profound it was almost ninety degrees.
Upon standing back up, he added, “Young Master, I’ve also brought a small gift with me as I return to the Si Family.”
“Oh? A gift?” Hearing Councilor Jia’s words, Fang Ze picked up his tea cup, took a sip, and asked, “What gift?”
