Chapter: 3564
Only Su Ruoli and Su Ruo Li were chatting with each other, laughing and speaking freely.
Sisters-in-law not only shared half of their bloodline, but also had very similar experiences in recent times. Both were betrayed by the Su family and rescued multiple times by He Yichen, so they have plenty to talk about.
Su Zhiyu looked at He Yichen chatting with Song family and Ito family, sighed inwardly, and said, "If he leaves, I believe it won't be long before you no longer need to hide your identity."
Su Ruoli chuckled and said, "I'm not bothered. As long as He Yichen lets me hide myself, I'll hide; if he doesn't let me, I won't hide. Anyway, I don't have any other plans - just follow him wherever he goes."
As they spoke, Su Ruoli tugged at her chin and lamented, "However, my abilities are indeed quite lacking. The Wanlong Hall has nearly a hundred people, most of whom are stronger than me. Later on, I'm afraid He Yichen won't have any real use for me."
Su Zhiyu shook his head seriously and said, "Don't worry. I think He Yichen won't treat Wanlong Hall as his true self; more likely, he'll just use them to handle some shady business. But in He Yichen's eyes, you and Wanlong Hall are different - he will definitely have better arrangements for you."
Su Ruoli's face lit up with surprise and asked, "Are you serious?"
Su Zhiyu nodded seriously and said, "I'm guessing it'll be about 8 or 9 out of 10!"
Su Ruoli burst into joyful laughter, saying, "That would be great! I don't ask for anything else; being able to stay by He Yichen's side as a maid is already fine."
As the atmosphere became awkward, Du Haiqing, who had been silent until then, finally spoke up and said, "Ruoli, you should have more confidence in yourself. He Yichen's expectations of you must be very high. It's not just about being a personal maid to him; he might also expect you to reach the same level as Wanlong Hall one day."
Su Ruoli pursed her lips, though she didn't dare believe it, but couldn't help but fill with anticipation for the future.
He Yichen arrived at the Song family and then went on to the Ito family, holding a cup of wine in front of the He family, including Su Ruoli and her mother.
Before He Yichen could say his thanks, He Hongsheng, the old master of the He family, took the initiative and held up his cup against He Yichen, saying, "He Yichen! I just found out last night that Ruoli is someone you have rescued and been protecting, and this kindness of yours will be remembered forever by the He family!"
He Yichen smiled slightly and said calmly, "He Hongsheng, sir, Ruoli and I are friends. This is a matter between us. You don't need to worry about it."
He Hongsheng spoke seriously, "He Yichen, Ruoli is an excellent member of the new generation in our He family and will be the future leader of our family. By saving her, you have saved the entire He family!"
Ruoli heard this and said with a mixture of confusion, "Grandpa... I'm just an outsider, how can I be the future leader of the He family...?"
He Hongsheng spoke resolutely, "Ruoli, no matter what your surname is, you are the descendant of our He family. Therefore, in the future, I will entrust the management of our family to you, and I will truly be able to put my mind at ease."
As he said this, He Hongsheng felt a sense of shame and said, "Today, I climbed up to the peak of Leaf Mountain and realized that in the martial arts realm, there are indeed heavens above and people outside. Wanbao Army is not even thirty years old yet, but it has already reached eight-star status, while I have only managed to reach four-star status with great difficulty, relying on Mr. He's help. Compared to this, it really feels like I'm ashamed of my own mortality."
As he said this, He Hongsheng looked at Ruoli and spoke seriously, "Therefore, I want to entrust all the small matters of our family to you. This way, I can have more time to focus on practicing and see if I can take another step forward before I die...
Ruoli looked at He Hongsheng with a mix of surprise and trepidation, saying, "Grandfather, I don't know if I can handle it... And my current identity is sensitive, if the Japanese find out I'm still alive, it will definitely cause trouble for our family..."
He Yichen spoke up then, "Ruoli, you don't need to worry about this. I've already thought of a plan, and starting tomorrow, you'll be able to resume your life openly without any trouble from the Japanese."
"How is that possible...?" Ruoli said subconsciously, "I'm the most wanted criminal in Japan... They will definitely not let me go easily..."
He Yichen smiled, "Don't worry. Starting tomorrow, I'll have the Wanbao Army announce to the outside world that you're officially a member of our clan! The Japanese won't dare to challenge us, so they'll definitely choose to give up on pursuing you."
"Even if it's just a matter of face, they won't do anything substantial to catch you. This way, you can resume your life freely."
Ruoli looked at her performance with a collected gaze, and then smiled as he said, "Since that's the case, why don't we let Wanbao Army announce to the outside world that you're officially a member of our clan tomorrow? The Japanese won't dare to challenge us, so they'll definitely give up on pursuing you." JrNovels.com
