Strongest Soldier

Of course, the jade token had to do with Lee Hongtian, or else the Wu Family would not be so simple.    

However, this confused Lee Hongtian.    

Wu Qishaan and Wu Lei did not have any disagreements with Wu Zheng's decision or actions after his arrival.    

Wu Qishaan and Wu Lei obediently got on the car and left with him after hearing Wu Zheng's words.    

This made Lee Hongtian surprised and puzzled. He felt that the entire Wu Family was not like Wu Qishaan who had the final say, but Wu Zheng instead.    

However, this was only Lee Hongtian's guess.    

After the Wu Family people left, Lee Hongtian walked back in front of Zhou Yafei and Old Master Zhou.    

"Yafei, old man, from today onwards, Wu Family will not come again to ask for more jade talismans. You can take it with ease."    

Lee Hongtian said to Old Master Zhou with a big smile on his face.    

"Thank you, Lee Hongtian." Zhou Yafei also thanked Lee Hongtian gratefully.    

One had to know that the jade talisman was the only thing her mother had left her, so how could she hand it over so easily?    

"Hongtian, Yafei, come with me."    

At this time, Old Master Zhou instructed Zhou Yafei and Lee Hongtian, but he did not explain anything.    

Zhou Yafei and Lee Hongtian looked at each other and then followed Old Master Zhou inside.    

Soon, Lee Hongtian and Zhou Yafei arrived at Old Master Zhou's study.    

Old Master Zhou took out an exquisite small box from his safe.    

Seeing this box, Lee Hongtian and Zhou Yafei instantly became curious.    

"Grandfather, this should be the jade talisman that my mom left me, right?"    

Zhou Yafei asked her grandfather after a short pause.    

"That's right, Yafei. Since I was young, I have never shown you this jade talisman. It's time for me to show it to you." Old Master Zhou nodded slightly, looking meaningfully at Zhou Yafei as he spoke to Lee Hongtian.    

"Grandfather, why did my mother leave behind this jade talisman?" Zhou Yafei asked Old Master Zhou with a puzzled expression.    

Old Master Zhou didn't reply to Zhou Yafei's question. Instead, he slowly opened the box.    

The moment the box was opened, a faint emerald green light emitted from within the box.    

After the light faded, a rectangular jade talisman quietly rested within the box. The two sides of the jade talisman were engraved with the same pattern, and there was a crack in the middle that looked like the opening of a key. In addition, the structure of the jade talisman was carved from pure natural jade stone, so it was dazzling and clear under the light.    

"This... This is a jade talisman. Upon seeing this jade talisman, Zhou Yafei's eyes instantly opened wide as she exclaimed in astonishment.    

However, at this moment, Lee Hongtian suddenly felt the weak energy emitted from the jade talisman.    

The energy flashed by. It was very weak, but Lee Hongtian still felt it.    

This made Lee Hongtian feel that this jade talisman was definitely not simple. There must be a secret hidden within it.    

Yafei, your mother gave this jade talisman to your father a long time ago, and then she gave it to me to keep for you. Now that you're this big, it's time to give this jade talisman to you. Old Master Zhou explained in a heavy tone to Zhou Yafei, then he picked up the jade box and handed it to Zhou Yafei.    

Zhou Yafei was stunned at first. Then, she stretched out her hand to take the box. Holding the box in her hand, Zhou Yafei felt upset.    

Since she was young, she had never felt the love of her parents. This jade talisman was the only thing her parents had left for her. It really made Zhou Yafei feel touched. Unconsciously, Zhou Yafei's eyes started to moisten.    

"Grandfather, where are my parents? What happened to them? " Zhou Yafei asked Old Master Zhou with tears in her eyes. What happened to her parents had always been a secret in Zhou Yafei's heart, and she had always wanted to know about it.    

"Yafei, grandpa can't tell you right now. Like I said, there are some things you don't know if it's your protection or not. One day, you will know the answer you want. Grandpa won't lie to you."    

After being asked by Zhou Yafei, Old Master Zhou remained as he was before. He did not choose to tell her about Zhou Yafei's parents.    

Old Master Zhou had only told Lee Hongtian about Zhou Yafei's parents, and only Lee Hongtian knew the reason.    

Seeing Zhou Yafei's sad expression, Lee Hongtian also felt upset.    

He wanted to tell Zhou Yafei the truth, but he knew he couldn't. He couldn't tell Zhou Yafei until he knew everything.    

In the next moment, Zhou Yafei rushed out, crying.    

Old Master Zhou had a helpless look on his face and a pained expression on his face.    

Lee Hongtian glanced at Old Master Zhou and ran after him. He knew that Zhou Yafei needed comfort right now.    

After rushing out of the study, Zhou Yafei ran to the garden outside the villa and sat down with the jade box tightly held in her hand.    

Lee Hongtian rushed out and slowly walked to sit beside Zhou Yafei.    

"Wife, actually, you are much luckier than I am." Lee Hongtian comforted Zhou Yafei after he sat down.    

Hearing Lee Hongtian's words, Zhou Yafei raised her head and looked at Lee Hongtian with her teary eyes. She didn't understand why Lee Hongtian would say that.    

"At least you know who your parents are, and you also have a grandfather who loves you. But I don't even know who my own biological parents are, I've been an orphan since I was a kid." Lee Hongtian smiled bitterly at Zhou Yafei. He told her about the circumstances of his own life in a helpless manner. He wanted to comfort Zhou Yafei with his own life.    

The moment Lee Hongtian said this, Zhou Yafei was stunned and didn't know how to respond.    

"What I said was the truth. I grew up by myself and lived a life that you could not understand. I had no family, no parents, and had always been alone." Lee Hongtian continued to lecture seriously at Zhou Yafei.    

"Until... Until I entered your Zhou Family, causing me to feel the warmth of a family member. "    

"Lee Hongtian..." "I …" When Zhou Yafei heard Lee Hongtian's words, her expression became even more apologetic as she looked at him.    

"Even though you've never really liked me, I know that Zhou Family is my other safe haven to me." Lee Hongtian did not have the slightest intention to joke around, this was the voice that came from the bottom of his heart.    

Only he himself knew about Lee Hongtian. He never told anyone about it, not even his own brothers.
