C497 Old Man Li's Permission



C497 Old Man Li's Permission

3Within the ancestral hall, a hundred people were shocked.     4

    

Li Jin and Li He lowered their heads at the same time as if they had no face to see anyone. The conditions they brought up earlier were all turned into jokes and turned into children playing house.    

    

Especially Lee Ji, his expression turned uglier and uglier.    

    

Faced with such a situation, I did not panic, but maintained a leisurely manner, and lightly said: "Being able to stand here today is the best explanation, whether you believe it or not, you have to accept it. I do not need anyone to be convinced!"    

    

Gradually, the commotion turned into silence, and the entire ancestral hall became deathly silent.    

    

The old man sighed and was about to speak when someone walked in from outside the ancestral hall and lightly pressed on Lee Ji's shoulder, instantly calming him down. A strong look of hope appeared in his eyes.    

    

Shockingly, the newcomer was … Lee Qinghao!    

    

"Lee Shaobai, you do have the strength to become the crown prince, but the matters in the south have yet to come to an end, so why are you in such a hurry, Old Master? Since Lee Shaobai said that the Heaven Sect should be eliminated within a month, then we shall just wait for him to be eliminated before we speak of it again. Lee Qinghao said.    

    

I squinted my eyes. I didn't expect Lee Qinghao to come at such a time. The reason why he said that was to stall for time. He wanted to find a way to retaliate within a month so that I wouldn't be able to become the crown prince.    

    

However, the current situation is very advantageous for me. I do not need to be afraid of anyone. Lee Qinghao's plan to delay the army might not be useful.    

    

"In that case, for the sake of fairness, I'll do as you say." the old man said.    

    

Lee Qinghao smiled and nodded decisively, "Thank you, Old Master."    

    

"Disperse. We will decide on this matter after a month." The old man waved his hand.    

    

But suddenly, Lee Qinghao took three steps forward, looked at me with a smile and said: "Wait, Lee Shaobai, do you dare to make a bet with me? for the old gramps to be a notary public? "    

    

"Bet? What do you want to bet? " I slightly raised my eyebrows, thinking that the other party definitely had bad intentions.    

    

As expected, Lee Qinghao's smile immediately became wider, as if he was completely confident: "If you can't destroy Heaven Sect within a month, you will never be able to compete for the position of crown prince, and will only be the eldest grandson. How about it?"    

    

"Isn't your plan a little too good?" Just talk about the result of my loss, and not talk about the price of your loss? " I smiled, everything is under my control. Lee Qinghao would never allow me to become Crown Prince for the sake of Lee Ji.    

    

Lee Qinghao paused for a moment, as if he was thinking of a suitable bet, and did not immediately state his conditions.    

    

"How about I tell you about the bet, if you lose, you can strip Lee Ji of his identity and become a servant of Lee Family, what about it?" I looked around and eventually landed on Lee Ji. I thought that Lee Qinghao definitely wouldn't agree to conditions that were too big.    

    

"Absolutely not!" Lee Qinghao glared at him fiercely and rejected the idea, as if he cared a lot about his useless son.    

    

This... It was simply a deep fatherly love.    

    

Even I couldn't bear it.    

    

But from another point of view, would Lee Qinghao have any heart for me?    

    

The answer is no, from the moment I revealed my identity, I have already become a threat to him.    

    

I couldn't help but shake my head and put on the look of someone who likes to gamble but doesn't want to. I smiled and said, "Then I will strip away the opportunity to compete for Crown Prince. I won't strip away Noble Heir's identity? Could it be that competing for Crown Prince was worse than a mere Noble Heir? If you do not want to bet, then forget it.    

    

"Fine, that's settled then. If you can't complete the mission within one month, you are not allowed to compete for the crown prince position. If I lose, Lee Ji will automatically resign as Noble Heir." Lee Qinghao's expression changed. He seemed to be worried that I wouldn't bet with him, so he immediately agreed.    

    

"Father! How can I? What if we really lose? " Lee Ji panicked.    

    

Lee Qinghao turned around and looked at Lee Ji with a certain gaze, "As long as I'm here, I won't lose. This time, Lee Shaobai will lose without a doubt. The title of Crown Prince will forever be yours. No one can take it away from me."    

    

At this moment, the old man stood up. "Since the bet has been decided, then this old man can be a witness and disperse."    

    

After he finished speaking, the old man waved his hand again, and only then did the people present start to disperse one by one.    

    

Soon, only a few people remained in the ancestral hall.    

    

Lee Qinghao stared at me and said in a cold voice, "Lee Shaobai, I didn't expect you to be so well-hidden that I almost fell for your trick. But this time, you are not so lucky.    

    

"Right, Lee Shaobai, don't get cocky too early, you'll regret it later." Lee Ji made a fierce remark.    

    

I frowned. "Lee Ji?" What did you say? "    

    

"I say, you will regret it sooner or later. You will lose miserably in the hands of us father and son." Lee Ji's face was filled with hatred.    

    

When I heard this, I silently raised my foot and heavily slapped Lee Ji's face in front of Lee Qinghao, "For offending the higher ups, you should be punished. Your father has the right to say such words, but you, a small Noble Heir, don't have the right to be presumptuous in front of me."    

    

Lee Ji covered his burning face. His throat felt like it was stuck and he couldn't say a word.    

    

"You!" Lee Qinghao was furious, but he couldn't blame me. After all, Lee Ji was indeed in the wrong. The slap on his face was in fact, a slap on Lee Qinghao's heart.    

    

However, in the blink of an eye, Lee Qinghao suppressed his anger and waved his sleeve. He then turned around and said, "Ji'er, let's go."    

    

"Just you wait." Wu Tie gnashed his teeth in anger. He could only stomp his foot and follow Lee Qinghao's footsteps as he left.    

    

"..."    

    

That day, my mother arranged for me to stay at the Nameless Courtyard for a short time. It was rare for me to sit at the same table with the old man and have a reunion dinner.    

    

The old man didn't say anything extra. He just gave me some food from time to time and gradually piled it into a small mountain of vegetables. He was full of love.    

    

I didn't say much and just lowered my head to eat, eating all of the food that the old gramps personally picked up.    

    

Halfway through eating, my mother suddenly felt a little dizzy and mumbled, "Still missing a person …"    

    

I held on to my food in silence, not knowing what to say.    

    

The old man took a sip of his soup and sighed: "He has his own decision, as long as Shaobai's identity does not involve Nameless, that's enough. It's just that …" I am very worried, and also look forward to his true strength. "    

    

"Why don't I go back and look for him?" My mother put down her chopsticks and looked worried.    

    

"No, since he's back, I won't look for him anymore. I believe that one day, he will return." The old man raised his hand and shook his head in denial.    

    

Saying this, the old man turned his face to the side and looked deeply at me, "Shaobai, after today's matter is spread out, your reputation will definitely rise greatly. In order to secure the position of Crown Prince, you must have some strong means.    

    

"But since the name of eldest grandson will spread across China, since there's Zhong Hai to assist you, then just make it even bigger, and let everyone know, you are my, Li Tianxing's, eldest grandson, and the future Crown Prince of Lee Family."    

    

"As for how you're going to cause trouble, think about it yourself."
