Chapter 260 Support
When Chu Ning'an met with Master Chu this time, he only gave a brief account of his experiences over the past four years, but did not mention a single word about the truth behind his fall into the water.
He was genuinely concerned, fearing that revealing the truth would anger this highly respected elder and cause him harm. However, how could the Chu Emperor's tutor, who had experienced three generations of emperors and the vicissitudes of life, not see the hidden clues?
After Chu Ning'an and his group said goodbye and left, Imperial Master Chu quickly called his grandson, Chu Shengyan, and solemnly instructed him, "Remember! Do not spread the news of Ning'an's return. Even to family members, do not tell them for now to avoid complications."
Chu Shengyan nodded repeatedly in agreement, but he couldn't suppress his inner suspicion and asked, "Grandfather, in your opinion, what is the girl named Ru Yue like?"
"Ning An said that he drifted to a village under Jiaqing Mansion and was rescued by a local girl named Ru Yue." Imperial Master Chu narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly: "Although Ning An said that Ru Yue was just a village girl, if you look closely, does this girl have any short-sightedness or vulgar behavior?" After speaking, Imperial Master Chu stroked his beard lightly, his eyes deep and sharp, as if he had already seen through all the truth.
Without even a moment's thought, Chu Shengyan shook his head vigorously and spoke, "If no one had mentioned this specifically, even if someone claimed this girl was from a royal family or a prominent aristocratic family, it would have been completely believable. Just looking at her appearance and demeanor, she embodies the demeanor of a noble lady from an aristocratic family. As for her speech and manners, even the pampered ladies of the capital would have difficulty matching her! Moreover, this kind of elegance that emanates from within is definitely not something that can be easily acquired through a short period of study. It must have been cultivated and nurtured over many years to become so natural."
The meaning of his words was very clear. It was obviously impossible for a woman as outstanding as Ru Yue to be the result of Chu Ning'an's deliberate teaching over the past two years. Instead, it was more like a trait that was innate and deeply imprinted in her bones.
At this time, Master Chu, who was sitting beside him, narrowed his eyes slightly, was silent for a while, and then nodded involuntarily, agreeing with Chu Shengyan's words.
He paused for a moment before slowly speaking, "Sheng Yan, regardless of Miss Ru Yue's identity and background, she saved Ning An's life after all, and Ning An himself has clearly expressed his approval of her. Therefore, there's no need for us to interfere too much in their affairs."
After saying this, Master Chu took a short break to adjust his state. After a long while, he opened his mouth again and continued, "However, you still need to send people to carefully investigate the specific origins of this girl. You know, your sister only has Ning An as her only child now. As elders, we naturally have to put in more effort!"
"Don't worry, Grandfather. I can save you some trouble." Chu Shengyan comforted his grandfather while gently patting the back of the old man's hand. He said with a firm and gentle look in his eyes, "Besides, Ning An has been a very opinionated person since he was young. Not just anyone can easily catch his eye! Even if the other party saved his life, it is absolutely impossible for Ning An to sacrifice his life for it! So, you can just relax."
After he finished speaking, Chu Shengyan seemed to suddenly remember something important. He moved a little closer to his grandfather and reminded him in a low voice, "Grandfather, about the Wu'an Marquis Mansion..."
The Chu Emperor's teacher had just recovered from a serious illness and was already weak. Coupled with such a long conversation with his grandson and the various thoughts in his mind, he felt a little exhausted. He slowly closed his eyes, and it seemed as if he had fallen asleep.
After a long while, a slightly tired voice came out from the mouth of Chu Dishi: "Don't pay attention to that family who are confused."
After saying this, Master Chu closed his eyes again and truly fell asleep to rest.
Ru Yue and her group left the Chu Mansion. Although Doctor Shen was afraid that Ru Yue had suffered a loss, he did not inquire more about Chu Ning'an's affairs. It was not until they returned to Huairen Medical Clinic that he called the two of them to the study.
Ru Yue originally suspected that Divine Doctor Shen wanted to inquire about Chu Ning'an's mysterious background, but what she never expected was that this venerable old man would speak solemnly and seriously, "Ning'an, I don't care whether you are a young man from a prestigious family or a poor scholar in trouble. My only hope is that you don't let our little girl Ru Yue down! Although I don't have any earth-shattering abilities, if I need to protect someone, I can still do this little thing."
Hearing these words, Chu Ning'an was shocked. He knew very well that the Divine Doctor Shen in front of him was not just talking casually.
He responded without hesitation, "Master, don't worry. To me, neither the Chu family nor the Wei family is as important as Ruyue. Even if I completely sever ties with the Wei and Chu families, I will have no complaints. For me, I can live without the wealth and splendor of the Wei family, and I can also give up the power and status of the Chu family, but I cannot lose Ruyue. Only where she is, there will be my home."
When saying this, Chu Ning'an's bright and determined eyes looked straight at Doctor Shen, without any intention of dodging, and his words were resounding and unwavering.
Shen, the Divine Doctor, has roamed the martial arts world for decades, his discerning eyes seem to see through everything in the world. Whether it's true or false, good or evil, he can discern the slightest detail with just one glance.
When I first met him two years ago, I thought this young man was quite good. Now I am still quite satisfied with him. He is also quite satisfied with the attitude of the Chu family today. I just don't know what the Wu'an Marquis Mansion is like...
He always had a trace of doubt in his heart... However, it had been some time since Chu Ning'an came to Beijing, but he had never heard him mention anything about the Wu'an Marquis Mansion.
In this way, Doctor Shen naturally understood the key point - there must be many unspeakable secrets hidden in it!
Seeing her master's support, Ru Yue kept silent. She had known Chu Ning'an for two years. Regardless of Chu Ning'an's character, she had no doubt about her ability to judge people.
However, she had little kinship with her family in both of her lives, and now that there was such an old man caring about her, she felt a warm current in her heart. This is the feeling of being cared for and loved by someone!
