Chapter 1381: Chapter 72: A Loving Father and a Dutiful Son [2-in-1] (Part 3)
Fang Yunzheng sighed: "This job of yours... it’s hard..."
There was pride in his eyes, but also deep pain.
As a seasoned undercover agent, he knew the difficulties of this work all too well.
What’s more, his undercover work was only on the positive side of Feng Yunqi, but Fang Che had gone directly undercover into the Wei Wo Zheng Sect!
"In the future... as the ties grow deeper, Fang Che... with each cut, it will feel like you’re cutting into your own heart!"
Fang Yunzheng sighed deeply: "I only regret waking up too late. If I had woken up two years earlier... no matter what, I wouldn’t have let you make such a choice! It’s too hard, too hard!"
Fang Che was silent for a while, then said: "I’ve already killed our own people."
"This is just the beginning..."
Fang Yunzheng sighed, his eyes looking out the window, somewhat reflective, as the smoke of time passed by.
He said softly: "If in the future... the situation requires that a man of Rui Qianshan’s level must die under your blade... what would you choose?!"
Fang Che was shocked: "Father! That’s impossible, isn’t it?!"
This word "father" comforted Fang Yunzheng greatly, but also broke his heart.
Thinking of the storms his child would face in the future, Fang Yunzheng could almost see the dark clouds about to hover over his son’s mind right now!
He spoke with deep reverence: "Pray to Heaven... this must not come to pass!"
Fang Che just felt it was a bit absurd.
A person like Rui Qianshan, what level is that? What level am I?
This seems like a dream, how could I be qualified to be involved in battles of that realm?
Even if I could, that’s eons away, isn’t it?
Changing the subject: "Then what about the Fang Family in Chiyan City?"
"This was arranged by Ninth Brother, it was the origin he arranged for me."
Fang Yunzheng chuckled: "Chiyan City originally had a Fang Family, and there indeed was a Third Young Master of the Fang Family... but that Third Young Master is already dead now."
"Moreover, for this matter, Ninth Brother utilized the Dongfang Family’s resources to collectively brainwash the entire Fang Family in Chiyan City in their dreams... now, except for me who knows I’m fake, they all believe I am real!"
Fang Che couldn’t help but click his tongue.
The methods of Dongfang Sansan were indeed astounding, but this meticulous arrangement was truly earth-shattering!
"After our reunion today, your mother and I will start living alternately between two households. We’ll live in Bibo City for a while, then in Chiyan City for a while, and then I need to come up with a way, at an appropriate time, for the Fang Family in Bibo City to shed its shell like a golden cicada."
Fang Yunzheng’s eyes shone: "It’s best if you have no worries at all, but for now, I can’t think of a good solution. It can’t just vanish into thin air."
Fang Che relaxed and said: "Originally, I was still worried about the family, but now that father has returned, I’m truly relieved."
He said with great respect: "So you are the greatest hero of the current continent!"
"Greatest hero..."
Fang Yunzheng wore a mysterious smile, somewhat pained.
He said deeply: "If there was a choice, who in this world would want to be a hero? The word ’hero’ is filled with legendary romance, but only heroes and their families know what those words truly represent."
"It is the unbearable weight of life!"
Fang Yunzheng said calmly.
"But in this world, some things must be done by someone." Fang Che said firmly.
"Well said."
Fang Yunzheng chuckled: "That’s what I thought back then."
"Just didn’t expect... it could be inherited!"
Fang Yunzheng said: "But your father is not the greatest hero."
He continued: "I consider myself a hero in this life, but I dare not claim to be the greatest! How many heroes there are in this land; how many heroes have already fought for the continent and are now in eternal rest! What virtue and ability do I, Fang Yunzheng, have to claim to be the greatest in front of them?"
"Xue Fuxiao, Rui Qianshan, Dongfang Sansan, Yu Tianqi, Dongfang Zhongming... which of these is not the backbone of the human race? Where do I, Fang Yunzheng, get the face to claim to be the greatest in front of them?"
Fang Che nodded, sincerely convinced: "Yes!"
Fang Che’s heart had no scruples left. Even though the conversation had been controlled by Fang Yunzheng since he entered, after knowing his father’s identity, Fang Che truly felt, this was normal.
How could someone like Fang Yunzheng let such an important conversation slip out of his own control?
As for others hoping to see a fight, Fang Yunzheng had never worried about it happening from the start!
If such openness hadn’t made Fang Che understand, then he wouldn’t have been valued so much by Dongfang Sansan.
Looking at his son’s expression, Fang Yunzheng was completely at ease, smiling slightly: "So today, have we father and son finished our talk?"
"Finished."
"No more doubts?"
"No more doubts."
"No more grudges?"
"Need to have a fight?"
"...If you want to hit me, just say so!"
Fang Che was angry.
Fang Che discovered a character flaw in his father: This tendency to pursue relentlessly, to beat a dog in the water until it’s dead...
It really is a bit uncomfortable.
"I am your own son!"
Fang Che protested: "Is there really a need to chase so relentlessly?"
"Uh uh... forgot."
Fang Yunzheng immediately put away his facade of beating a dog in the water, revealing a kind smile: "Che’er, today our family is reunited, it’s such a good occasion, I’ve also prepared something for you. I wonder if you’ll like it."
"A meeting gift?"
Fang Che loved this part the most, his eyes instantly lit up.
