"Phew, it's good that I agreed." Zhou Yan patted his chest as if he had just survived a disaster.
Lying on the bed, Zhou Yan slowly closed his eyes.
Unknowingly, he fell asleep.
... "
The next morning, after Zhou Yan woke up, he immediately ran to the hall of the inn and waited for the arrival of his young master.
Zhou Yan was already prepared to follow his footsteps to the Zhou Mansion to see what was so special about the Zhou Family.
Sitting in the hall of the inn, Zhou Yan kept looking outside.
Right now, he only wished that he could fly to the Zhou Family as soon as possible and see what the Zhou Family was like.
He was already fantasizing that if the Zhou family was as luxurious as his house, he would be very happy.
As Zhou Yan continued to fantasize, it was already almost noon.
The man finally arrived late.
"Yan'er, let's go. Father will take you to see our Zhou Mansion. "The man looked at Zhou Yan's expression and said with a faint smile," When you see Ruoxue later, don't be so formal. It's like you're in your own home, okay? "
Zhou Yan nodded.
He did not dare to refuse the man's suggestion, because he was afraid that if he did, the man would kill him.
When the two of them arrived at the entrance of the Zhou Mansion, they saw the guards.
"Stop, this is the entrance of the Zhou family. No one is allowed to enter."
Hearing the guard's voice, the man smiled and said, "Brother, this is my relative. Just let him in."
"Young master, this..." The guard hesitated for a moment before looking at the man.
He had watched the male grow up, so he knew that if he really angered the young master, he would be in trouble.
When the man saw the guard's actions, he couldn't help but sigh." Well, since you don't want to make an exception, I have to go in myself. Remember, this is my house. In the future, you can't let anyone in without my order."
After saying that, he signaled Zhou Yan with his eyes.
Seeing that, Zhou Yan immediately walked to the door.
"Pah!"
As the man's palm landed on Zhou Yan's shoulder, Zhou Yan's entire body collapsed weakly onto the ground.
Zhou Yan felt dizzy as a wave of nausea surged through his entire body. He forced himself to wake up.
This Young Master was an extremely protective person. If he were to be negligent in any way, he would definitely end up in a miserable state.
Therefore, he had to be obedient. He couldn't fight back at all.
When the man saw Zhou Yan's actions, he smiled in satisfaction and said, "Alright, you can go in."
"Yes, Young Master!"
With that, Zhou Yan slowly got up from his aching body and walked into the Zhou Mansion.
"Yan'er, what do you think of this place?" The man couldn't help but ask when he saw Zhou Yan's actions.
Zhou Yan carefully observed his surroundings, then nodded and said, "It's very beautiful. This place is even more beautiful than my mansion."
Hearing Zhou Yan's words, the man burst into laughter.
"Hahaha... Yan'er, don't forget your promise. You must take good care of our Zhou Family, or else I won't forgive you." The man threatened with a smile.
"Father, don't worry. I will do my best to serve you." Zhou Yan nodded and said.
Hearing Zhou Yan's words, the man laughed even more heartily.
A satisfied smile appeared on his face. It seemed like Zhou Yan would not go back on his word this time.
At this moment, Zhou Yan saw an old woman walking towards him. Thus, he quickly went over to welcome her.
Zhou Yan bowed to the old woman and said, "Junior Zhou Yan greets the madame."
This old woman was the butler, Zhou Yan's wet nurse.
"Young Master, you're welcome. This way, please." After saying that, Zhou Yan's nanny walked in front.
Zhou Yan quickly followed and asked: "wet nurse, I wonder what the madame is looking for me for?"
"Young Master Yan, come with me first." As the madame spoke, she turned around and walked in front.
"Oh."
Zhou Yan replied and quickly followed.
Zhou Yan followed the old mistress' back and unknowingly walked into the depths of the back mountain.
After passing through the forest, Zhou Yan finally saw a towering mansion.
At the entrance of the mansion, there were three armored soldiers guarding it.
These three soldiers were dressed in the same military uniform as last night.
Although Zhou Yan felt a faint sense of danger in his heart, he still gritted his teeth and walked towards the gate of the mansion with firm steps.
He could not back down. Otherwise, his fate would definitely be miserable.
When Zhou Yan walked into the house, he discovered that it was a completely different scene.
The building here was actually exactly the same as the main gate of the Zhou Mansion he saw last night.
Zhou Yan was somewhat confused.
Could this be the backyard of the Zhou Mansion?
What Zhou Yan did not know was that this was indeed the backyard of the Zhou Family, but it was a special backyard. Other than the Patriarch, no one was allowed to approach the backyard, including Zhou Yan's mother.
This was because there was a Devil Beast living in the back garden. This was a Devil Beast called the Azure Snake.
Not only was it a Low-level Devil Beast, but it was also extremely powerful, almost reaching the Five-star Soul Emperor.
Thus, Zhou Yan's family did not allow him to keep pets. Otherwise, it would become a disaster.
This green snake had a very bad temper. As long as it was a prey that she had caught, no one would be able to escape its pursuit.
"Young Master, you're here!"2
Right at this moment, a middle-aged man walked over from afar and respectfully shouted at Zhou Yan.
"Yes." Zhou Yan nodded and said, "I'll leave the matters of the Zhou Family to you."
"Yes, this old servant will do as you say!"
"Young Master, your clothes are tattered. Do you want me to help you change them? After all, we are outside, so you have to pay attention to your image so that others won't recognize you. " When the middle-aged man saw that Zhou Yan's clothes were tattered, he hurriedly said.
"No need, I'm not hungry yet." Zhou Yan shook his head, then looked at the middle-aged man and said, "I'll go see my father. How has he been recently?"
"Young Master, please follow me."
The middle-aged man respectfully made a gesture of invitation and led Zhou Yan towards the hall of the Zhou Mansion.
After walking for a while, the middle-aged man suddenly asked, "Young Master, where is your friend?"
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment. Then, he pointed to a pavilion not far away and said, "I just saw him walking over there."
When the middle-aged man heard Zhou Yan's words, he nodded and continued walking with Zhou Yan.
After walking down the wide street, they arrived at the hall of the Zhou Family.
Zhou Yan saw Zhou Yan's father, Zhou Wenhai, sitting at the head of the hall with two old men sitting on either side of him. Seeing these two old men, Zhou Yan felt a headache coming on.
