Seeing that it was getting late, night had fallen and the stars were twinkling, Deng Xian gently patted the children on the head and gently told them it was time for sleep. Then, she said goodnight to Deng Qiyue, took the children into the room, closed the door, and let them rest in peace.
At this moment, only Deng Qiyue and Su Yu remained in the room. Sitting quietly by the table, they exchanged a glance before finally beginning to talk about their respective experiences over the years.
Deng Qiyue slowly recounted the reason for running away from home back then—to escape an arranged marriage planned by his family. Full of youthful vigor at the time, he had resolutely chosen the path of venturing into the martial arts world and starting his own business. Over the years, his travels had taken him all across the country, allowing him to experience countless local customs and broaden his horizons. At the same time, relying on his intelligence, wit, and hard work, he had accumulated a fairly substantial fortune. Nowadays, even if he stopped working, his existing wealth was more than enough to ensure that he and his family could live without a single financial worry for the rest of their lives.
