Chapter 3100

"Does the Eldest Miss have a past-life karmic bond?" the butler asked with curiosity.

"Yes, a debt from a previous life. But it won't last long. It will pass soon." Yan Xizhong naturally did not tell them that even if the First Soul was gone, Yun Meng could never marry anyone else, because she had already signed the Eternal Life Contract.

This was Yun Meng’s matter. It was better to let her resolve it herself.

The butler did not know the specific details, but he understood one thing: since Yan Xizhong spoke this way, it meant Yun Meng would not return home for the time being.

The butler nodded. "Please rest assured, Young Master Yan. I will report this to the Old Master when I return."

Yan Xizhong glanced at the butler. "There is no need to explain my affairs in detail. I will not have many ties with the Yun family. As long as the Yun family does not bother me, I will not interfere in their matters, after all, Yun Meng is still a daughter of the Yun family."

Yan Xizhong’s words were clear: out of respect for Yun Meng, he would not take action against the Yun family.

The butler understood Yan Xizhong’s meaning and hurriedly said, "Please rest assured, Young Master Yan. No one will disturb you and the Second Miss."

Yan Xizhong nodded. "Yun Qichu himself lacks ability. From now on, he should just enjoy his blessings. He should not interfere in his children’s affairs. As the saying goes, descendants have their own fortune. So, he should not meddle in their matters."

"Understood. I will convey this to the Old Master," the butler nodded.

"Alright, let’s go. Let’s head back. If we are too late, my wife will worry about me," Yan Xizhong said with a smile.

"Does the Second Miss not know Young Master Yan’s identity?" the butler asked casually.

"She knows," Yan Xizhong glanced at the butler. "But for a couple, no matter how much they trust each other’s abilities, they still worry occasionally. This is one way to show deep affection between husband and wife."

The butler nodded, indicating he understood. "I see."

"I’m back." As expected, upon returning to the flower shop, Yun Meng greeted Yan Xizhong.

Meanwhile, Yun Qichu sat nearby, drinking tea with an air of arrogance. He seemed to think that Yan Xizhong would be killed by the butler after their conversation.

The butler said, "Eldest Master, it is time for us to return."

Yun Qichu was stunned. He looked at Yan Xizhong, then at Yun Meng, and pointed at the two of them. "Are you not going to deal with these two?"

The butler smiled. "Eldest Master, the Second Miss has already married. This is a good thing. How can outsiders like us interfere in a couple’s private matters? Let’s go."

Hearing this, even if Yun Qichu was dull, he understood. The butler was no longer stopping Yun Meng from marrying Yan Xizhong.

Yun Qichu had many flaws, but his only virtue was knowing when to quit. Seeing the butler’s attitude, he realized that Yan Xizhong was likely no ordinary person.

Although leaving like this might cost him face, he did not mind at all. As long as he did not cause trouble and his father did not hold him accountable, it was fine.

The butler did not tell Yun Qichu Yan Xizhong’s identity. Telling him would be pointless; instead, Yun Qichu might use Yan Xizhong’s status to bully others.

The butler did not tell Yun Qichu, but after returning home, he reported everything to Old Master Yun.

Old Master Yun was slightly stunned. "The Young Master of the Yan Palace in the Yanluo Realm? You are saying that my second daughter has become the wife of the Young Master of the Yan Palace?"

The butler nodded. "From Young Master Yan’s words, it seems she intends to take the Second Miss back with her in the future. She is still in this world because she wishes to stay, so she stays with her. However, her meaning is clear: the Yun family must not disturb them casually."

Old Master Yun nodded slightly. "In that case, notify Qichu. Tell her not to disturb the Second Miss and her husband."

Even if Yan Xizhong showed no attitude now, Yun Meng was still a daughter of the Yun family. If the Yun family ever faced danger in the future, Yan Xizhong would certainly not stand by and watch, provided the Yun family members were sensible.

The butler agreed. "Additionally, Young Master Yan mentioned that the Eldest Miss has a past-life karmic bond to resolve. she asked us not to arrange her marriage for the time being. We should wait until she understands her past-life bond before proceeding."

Old Master Yun nodded, indicating she understood. "In that case, temporarily decline the matchmaking proposals from those families. Just say that since the previous engagement failed, I had someone calculate her fortune, and it shows that the Eldest Miss should not discuss marriage for the next two years."

"Yes," the butler agreed. Then he added, "Old Master, should we restrict the Eldest Master slightly?"

Old Master Yun pondered. He knew what the butler meant. Yun Qichu lacked ability but had ambition. Fortunately, as his father, Old Master Yun was still alive to suppress him. Once he was gone, Yun Qichu would likely suffer losses in the future.

For Yun Qichu’s future, no matter what, he must not be allowed to cause trouble outside, especially offending his two granddaughters.

"Book a flight ticket. Send him to the island tomorrow. Let him live there for a while," Old Master Yun decided decisively.

As the head of the Yun family, Old Master Yun never hesitated. The next day, to Yun Qichu’s disbelief, he was escorted by the butler to a private island owned by the Yun family.

Of course, life on the island would not be difficult, but romantic encounters would be scarce. Without Old Master Yun’s orders, no planes would come. Although there were people there, staying in one place for a long time would make one unhappy.

However, no one cared about Yun Qichu’s thoughts.

After dealing with Yun Qichu, the butler called Yan Xizhong and informed him of the situation.

Yan Xizhong was satisfied with how the Yun family handled Yun Qichu. He then asked the butler to come over and gave him several Peace Talismans.

These were genuine Peace Talismans. Especially for a Heavenly Master family like the Yun family, with these talismans, no lonely or fierce ghosts could come near. It was equivalent to having a life safety guarantee.

Thus, things seemed to calm down on Yun Meng’s side.

Naturally, Yan Xizhong also visited the First Soul and Yun Ling. He originally planned to bring them back, but seeing that they were living comfortably in the mountains, he did not insist. He only said he would visit before Yun Ling gave birth.

Yun Meng knew that Yun Ling and the others were not returning. She only said to Yan Xizhong, "I never thought my sister would fall in love with a fierce ghost."

Yan Xizhong rubbed Yun Meng’s head. "Don’t think too much. Your sister has a karmic debt to repay. Besides, they have an Eternal Life Contract, so they are destined to be husband and wife for eternity."

Hearing Yan Xizhong mention the Eternal Life Contract, Yun Meng asked curiously, "By the way, how did I not know about your Eternal Life Contract?"

"It is not a big deal. You are with me. When you married me, you were already marked with my seal. So, even if you want to play in the mortal world in the future, you will only marry me. If not for me, you would be alone. So, for you, whether there is an Eternal Life Contract or not is not a big matter."
