”Don't worry, there's still me.”

Zhou Xian'er looked at the gentle smiling young man in front of her and felt deeply moved. The helplessness in her heart disappeared and was replaced with trust and reliance that she hadn't felt in a long time.

”Thank you, Big Brother Cang Yun.” Zhou Xian'er nodded his head heavily, he then extended his hand and grabbed Cang Yun's arm with his white wrist, a happy smile appearing on his face.

”Do you need to be so courteous to me?” Cang Yun also laughed softly.

Just at this moment, a middle-aged man dressed as a butler quickly walked over and stopped in front of the two of them. A gentle smile hung on his amiable face.

”Uncle Fu, long time no see.” Before the middle-aged man could say anything, Cang Yun had already bowed and said with a smile.

The middle-aged man in front of him was the old housekeeper of the Zhou Mansion, Cang Yun was no stranger to him. He remembered that when he was young, he had caused trouble at the Zhou Mansion, but it was this middle-aged man who had helped him lie and hide the truth.

”That's right. In a blink of an eye, eight years has passed. Young Master Cang has also grown up. He's already so handsome.” Uncle Fu revealed a kind smile as he replied with a tinge of emotion.

”Uncle Fu also has the same demeanor as before.” Cang Yun smiled.

Cang Yun smiled awkwardly. The two's actions were too intimate, so he gently pulled his arm in an attempt to break free, but just as he moved, he discovered that Xian'er's smooth wrist was clearly using more strength than before. This made him a little stunned, but he had no choice but to give up.

At this point, Uncle Fu looked at Zhou Xian'er and bowed slightly. He then spoke out once more, ”Young miss, the Sector Lord is calling for you.”

”Ah, he just ran out and called me back after a while.” Zhou Xian`er mumbled unwillingly, as she tilted her head to the side and looked towards Cang Yun, saying reluctantly: ”Then Big Brother Cang Yun, please wait for a moment, I'll come and find you soon.”

Hearing this, Cang Yun rubbed his forehead, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. It seemed that this little girl ran out himself, but this was in keeping with her usual style.

”The sector lord said that if Young Master Cang is willing, you can also go with him.” At this time, Uncle Fu continued.

”Really? ”Great!” Zhou Xian'er screamed out in fear, as she turned her gaze onto Cang Yun with anticipation.

Cang Yun was also surprised. What was the meaning of calling him to come to the Zhou family's meeting? But then he thought again, regarding the proposal of the Fire Realm, he had already agreed to Xian'er's request. It was a good thing that he had gone to check on the situation.

Thus, after a moment of thought, Cang Yun nodded his head in agreement.

The three of them passed through the backyard and finally stopped in front of the solemn meeting hall. Uncle Fu stood in front and respectfully knocked on the door before gently pushing it open.

The hall was spacious, and there were quite a few people in it. Sitting at the very top was a middle-aged man with a resolute face and a straight back, and he looked somewhat similar to Zhou Xian'er. Even the slight vicissitudes of life on his face could not hide his handsome temperament.

Below Zhou Hao's left hand sat four middle-aged men who were about the same age and had indifferent expressions. They were also the Zhou family's spokesmen, and their authority was only second to a sector lord.
