Chapter 22
The Zhang family hurried forward to help Zhang Yuehan who fell to the ground, all with complicated expressions on their faces.
Zhang Yan stepped forward and asked softly, "Daughter, is what you just said true? You and Lu Fan are really..."
With blood on the corner of Zhang Yuehan's mouth, disheveled hair on his temples, he gritted his teeth and said, "Father, stop talking."
Zhang Yan nodded and said: "Okay, let's not talk about it, let's talk about it when we go back."
In a hurry, the Zhang family left quickly. People in other families were whispering, and various voices of discussion could be vaguely heard.
"It turns out that Zhang Yuehan and Lu Fan had a better time back then."
"Didn't she still be with Lu Ming some time ago? First with Lu Fan, then with Lu Ming, there is something wrong with this woman's character."
"Looking at how pure she looks, I didn't expect her to be this kind of person in her bones."
"Oh, the world is getting worse."
. . . . . .
Zhang Yuehan's face turned red, she never expected that her words in a hurry would ruin her reputation. And still lost to Lu Fan.
The double blow made Zhang Yuehan's whole body tremble, and the Zhang family also felt shameless, and left quickly without saying a word.
The Mo family originally thought that they were the losers this time, but seeing what happened to the Zhang family seemed to be even worse.
Mo Tian turned his head to look at Mo Yunfei and said, "Yunfei, you didn't get along with Zhang Yuehan, did you?"
Mo Yunfei said slowly: "It's almost."
Mo Tian's eyes became sharp immediately, and he said, "It's fine if it's not good. Stay away from this woman from now on."
Mo Yunfei nodded understandingly, and said, "Yes."
Mo Tian stood up and left with the Mo family. Under Lu Haoran's signal, the master of ceremonies above announced Lu Fan's victory.
Before Mo Yunfei left, he turned his head and glanced at Lu Fan. Although he was unwilling, he was also convinced.
Compared to Lu Ming, Mo Yunfei still has a bit of martial spirit.
Muttering, Mo Yunfei said: "Lu Fan, you've won this time. Next time, I'll do it next time when I've developed a strength."
Mo Lin next to him heard his son muttering to himself, smiled and patted Mo Yunfei on the shoulder.
On the stage, Lu Fan waved to the Lu family, and immediately the children of the Lu family shouted like mountains and seas.
Starting today, Lu Fan's name will become a legend in Jianglin City. Countless people will come to the hall to see how Lu Fan changed from a waste to a genius now.
It's a change from a fish to a dragon, awakened overnight.
It is still hidden, and it has been premeditated.
I believe that starting tomorrow, countless legendary stories about Lu Fan will be spread.
. . . . . .
At night, there is a big banquet, singing and dancing.
Tonight belongs to the Lu family's night, belongs to Lu Fan's night, and the entire Lu family began to celebrate.
At the main table, Lu Fan and his son sat beside Lu Haoran, one on the left and the other on the right. Lu Haoran was obviously very happy, drinking with a slightly drunken face.
When people drink more, they talk more.
Lu Haoran pulled Lu Fan and kept talking about his adventures in the rivers and lakes, such as visiting brothels at night, drawing swords and betting against Tianming.
Three or four stories were told back and forth by Lu Haoran for several hours, and Lu Fan couldn't leave, so he just sat there and listened, with Lu Hao smiling happily beside him. Apparently, he had also suffered such torture before, and seeing that Lu Fan had experienced the same experience as himself, Lu Hao had no reason to gloat over misfortune.
The children of the Lu family kept coming over to toast, and Lu Fan nodded in response one by one.
One night, what Lu Fan heard the most was not Lu Haoran's story. It was an apology from the children of the Lu family.
Almost everyone who came over would say: "Brother Lu Fan, I'm sorry. Back then, I was the one who looked down on others, and you were the pillar of the Lu family. I will punish myself three cups."
Lu Fan listened quietly. Once upon a time, he also thought that in the future, those who had humiliated him would line up in front of him to apologize one by one.
But when he did, he felt unnecessary.
Even now, he still feels that he should be grateful for these years of suffering.
It was these pains that created his tenacity, and it was these pains that made his martial arts.
Suddenly, a familiar figure passed by, it was Lu Tiangang who had been beaten by Lu Fan.
With a hulking back, straight waist, and holding a wine glass, Lu Tiangang bowed first when he came to Lu Fan, and said: "Lu Fan, I once scolded you as a waste, and now I know that I was wrong, it was wrong. I don't Please forgive me, I just want to apologize to you. Lu Fan of the Lu family is a genius, not a waste. If anyone dares to say a bad word about you in the future, I, Lu Tiangang, will be the first to refuse."
After speaking, Lu Fan poured the wine in the glass directly on his face, bowed deeply to Lu Fan again, and strode away.
Lu Haoran smiled and said: "Lu Fan, I didn't expect you to fight today, but the whole Lu family will be convinced by you."
Lu Fan chuckled and said, "Maybe."
Just as he was talking, Lu Feng walked over with a gloomy expression. Lu Haoran asked Lu Feng to sit down, and then asked, "Where is Lu Ming, why didn't he come?"
Lu Feng said: "Lu Ming went back to the Martial Arts Academy overnight."
Lu Haoran frowned and said, "You can't deal with such a small blow. Do you want to escape back to the academy?"
Hearing this, Lu Hao said, "Father, after all, Lu Ming is still a young man with full of vigor. This blow is indeed a bit heavy for him. Go back to the academy."
Lu Haoran was still a little unhappy. In Lu Haoran's opinion, Lu Ming should apologize to Lu Fan the most, but he didn't expect Lu Ming to leave.
Lu Feng seemed to know what Lu Haoran was thinking, picked up the wine glass, and said to Lu Fan: "Lu Fan, I apologize to you on behalf of Lu Ming. I hope you don't care about it. We are all a family, don't hold grudges."
Lu Fan nodded slowly with a calm expression, and took a drink from his glass.
At this time, a guard ran over quickly, clasped his fists to Lu Haoran and said, "Patriarch, someone is looking for Young Master Lu Fan outside."
"Who? If it's the congratulatory person, forget it. Didn't you already decline them tonight? If you want congratulations, come back tomorrow."
The guard replied: "It's Miss Zhang Yuehan from the Zhang family."
Lu Haoran was slightly taken aback, then turned to look at Lu Fan.
Frowning slightly, Lu Fan thought for a while, stood up, and said, "I'll go and have a look."
Lu Hao said at this time: "Lu Fan, remember, you are someone who wants to achieve great things. A woman like Zhang Yuehan...is not suitable for you."
Lu Fan nodded clearly and said, "Don't worry, father. I know what to do."
After speaking, Lu Fan strode outside.
Lu Haoran called the guard suddenly, and said softly: "Stand closer next time. Write down everything the two of you said, and then come back and report the truth."
The guard responded softly and left quickly.
At night, with a cool breeze, the long hair of the woman outside the door moves with the wind.
Zhang Yuehan stood at the gate of Lu's house, with his robes on the floor, and a sad expression on his face. She seemed to have put on some makeup tonight, with light powder applied and her eyebrows brushed lightly.
Under the moonlight, the vermilion lips were a bit gorgeous. When Lu Fan saw Zhang Yuehan, his expression suddenly moved slightly.
Lu Fan had seen her dress before. He vaguely remembered that it was also such a night when he met Zhang Yuehan with the medicinal materials that his father finally got him. Then, all the medicinal materials were given to Zhang Yuehan.
Standing still at the door, Lu Fan looked at Zhang Yuehan and said, "What do you want me for?"
Zhang Yuehan said softly: "Lu Fan, I want to chat with you, why don't we go to the shop in the innermost part of Chengmen Street. Let's have some wine and sit down and chat, shall we?"
Lu Fan said calmly: "If you have anything to say, just say it here."
Zhang Yuehan bit her lip, stepped forward, and wanted to hold Lu Fan's hand.
Lu Fan avoided it calmly, looked at Zhang Yuehan and said, "Miss Yuehan, you should be more respectful."
With sadness in her eyes, Zhang Yuehan said, "Lu Fan, I'm sorry, let's start over, okay?"
Lu Fan looked up at Zhang Yuehan, suddenly smiled, and slowly, Lu Fan said: "Zhang Yuehan, if you came here tonight, it was just to say this to me. Then, you can go back now."
Zhang Yuehan said: "Lu Fan, what do you want me to do to forgive me."
Lu Fan said lightly: "It's not about forgiveness or non-forgiveness, Miss Zhang Yuehan, it's late at night, you can go back, if you have nothing else to do."
Lu Fan's words pointed to something, Zhang Yuehan's eyes moved slightly, and said: "You know I have something to do?"
Lu Fan said: "Why don't you know. Your father Zhang Yan made a bet with my grandfather, and the bet was 100,000 gold coins. Isn't the purpose of your coming here just to let me intercede for you? Either allow a period of time, or subtract Some, yes."
Lu Fan's eyes that seemed to see through everything made Zhang Yuehan take a step back involuntarily.
Zhang Yuehan said: "Lu Fan, so you are so smart, why didn't I know anything about it?"
Lu Fan said, "There's still a lot you don't know."
Zhang Yuehan gritted his teeth and said, "Then are you willing to help me? Your reputation is so high now, as long as you say a word, the bet may be avoided. Lu Fan, whatever you want me to do, I will..."
Lu Fan interrupted Zhang Yuehan, and said: "I can only tell you, and I will help you. Zhang Yuehan, people shouldn't be so lowly. Many things in the world are not transactions. Asking for others is better than asking for yourself."
After Lu Fan finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to go back.
Zhang Yuehan's voice trembled, and said, "You say I'm low?"
Lu Fan turned to look at Zhang Yuehan and said, "I've said so much, and you only heard these two words?"
Zhang Yuehan's eyes flickered and said: "Lu Fan, is there really no possibility between us?"
Lu Fan thought for a while, and said: "Zhang Yuehan, from today onwards, our identities will be very different. Let's be realistic, you know, it's impossible between us, goodbye."
Lu Fan's words were like a heavy hammer hitting Zhang Yuehan's heart. These two sentences were what she said when she broke up with Lu Fan.
Now, Lu Fan's original words will be returned.
Every word was like a knife piercing through her, and Lu Fan's calm eyes from beginning to end made Zhang Yuehan extremely frustrated.
Lu Fan left quickly, waving his hand for the guards to close the door.
Zhang Yuehan stood where he was, watching the iron gate block Lu Fan's figure.
Little by little, Zhang Yuehan's eye sockets turned red, and then there was hatred growing in her eyes.
After a while, Zhang Yuehan left quickly.
