"This rascal… I can't imagine…" Lin Zhenggang muttered.

He was really surprised. It came to him now. This could be why the Long Family took the initiative to break the engagement.

Could the Long Family be afraid of Ling Yun? It would be huge if that were true!

There could be a reshuffle in the power of the families in Huaxia!

"Hehe, Daddy, there is so much more that you haven't thought of," Lin Menghan said with delight, her beautiful face filled with pride.

"Har…" Lin Zhenggang let out a long sigh after some thought, though his sharp eyes had a hint of excitement. "What else? Tell Daddy quickly!" he asked.

"Oh? You're not going to curse at him anymore?" Lin Menghan fought for Ling Yun's unfair treatment, ignoring her father's eagerness.

"Menghan, this concerns the whole family. You have to tell Daddy everything, without hiding anything. Do you understand?"

Lin Zhenggang had his family and the military in mind. He knew there was an opportunity, which helped him remain calm.

"Daddy, you have to swear that you won't tell anyone else."

Everything surrounding Ling Yun was secret. Lin Menghan had never spoken about it to anyone else. However, the person in front of her was her own father.

Moreover, what woman wouldn't want to boast about her hubby's exceptional abilities?

"Daddy knows…" Lin Zhenggang replied eagerly.

Lin Menghan smiled. "Daddy, you know about the incident on Turtle Island against the j.a.panese, right?

No one in Huaxia would know if Lin Zhenggang didn't know about it!

Ling Yun's speedboat played the eight j.a.panese patrol boats. He killed more than a hundred of them and erected Huaxia's flag on the highest peak of Turtle Island.

It was unprecedented and nearly triggered a war between the two countries. As a Rear Admiral, Lin Zhenggang naturally knew more than the common man.

When the news broke out, Lin Zhenggang's camp was boiling with pa.s.sion. Everyone was emotional and had never been more elated. Lin Zhenggang even gave an immediate order to get ready for combat.

After the matter occurred, even the senior officials would drink to this mysterious man and wors.h.i.+p him whenever they spoke about him.

He was one that everyone praised and admired!

The purpose of the army was to fight wars. They were ever ready to go onto the battlefield. That was where they completed their missions. That was why the military wouldn't consider so many political factors. If they wanted a fight, they would give it to them! Who was afraid of who?

"Why, could this matter… be related to Ling Yun as well?" Lin Zhenggang's jaw dropped.

"What do you mean by related? That mysterious Huaxia master is your future son-in-law, Ling Yun!" Lin Menghan giggled.

"What!" Lin Zhenggang jumped up from the sofa!

There was more.

"A few days ago, Long Tianjiao came over and didn't want to leave. Ling Yun saw him and slapped him out of the door. He kicked him out of the villa. See that tree over there…"

Lin Menghan pointed to the tall tree outside. "Long Tianjiao hung on the tree with a swollen face. He announced the annulment of the engagement then and there…"

Lin Menghan's heart would race whenever she thought back to this scene. Originally, only three of them knew about this. Now she could finally tell her father.

Need Lin Menghan say any more?

These two matters alone had given Lin Zhenggang a whole new impression of Ling Yun!

Impactful and impressive!

Lin Zhenggang finally understood why the Long Family did what they did without any repercussions to the Lin Family!

"This rascal… I didn't expect him to be so good. Why wasn't he famous before…"

Lin Zhenggang couldn't take it sitting still. He left the sofa and paced around the living room. An unprecedented sense of excitement enveloped him.

"Daddy, what do you think of your daughter's taste?" Lin Menghan asked with pride.

"Still alright…" Lin Zhenggang replied casually. Thoughts were blossoming everywhere in his mind.

"Daddy, how could you. If he's outstanding, he's outstanding. If he's awesome, he's awesome. What do you mean by still alright…" Lin Menghan protested.

"Okay! Outstanding and awesome! Yes… This kid is indeed outstanding!" Lin Zhenggang had changed his tone. He called Ling Yun a rascal no more and changed it to kid.

The meaning behind it was plain. He had recognized and accepted him.

"I have to see him!" Lin Zhenggang made a decision and turned towards Lin Menghan. "You said his clinic is opening tomorrow?"

"Yes, I'm just thinking about what to give him. He doesn't need anything, and giving him money is old-fas.h.i.+oned. So difficult!" Lin Menghan blurted out her feelings.

"You don't need to worry about that. I'll contact your grandpa immediately," Lin Zhenggang said with a smile.

Northwest Mountainous Area in Qingshui City. In the villa of Long Kun, the former boss of Green Dragon.

"Daddy, Ling Yun's clinic is having its opening tomorrow, what should we give him?"

Long Wu's face was filled with grief. She had thought of nothing but what gift would be appropriate for Ling Yun.

Long Kun was strolling leisurely in his yard. "Do we still need to give him anything? I gave him the Green Dragon Sect that I worked so hard to build for thirty years and also three hundred million yuan as your dowry. Is that not enough?" he asked with a light smile.

"It's not that it's not enough… but it's different. This is different!" Long Wu stomped her foot.

Long Wu was smart. Ling Yun had so many female confidants, and all of them had strong backgrounds. She could already see tomorrow's event evolving to that of a comparison contest!

Long Wu wasn't about to lose to any of Ling Yun's other women!

A battle of beauty, figure, temperament, gift, family background… Everything!

Long Wu knew that Ling Yun didn't care about all of it, but it mattered to women.

Her face would be lost if she were to lose this time. She would have to lower her head in the future. How could the proud Long Wu accept that?

She was the most justified fiancée. They were engaged at birth! Ling Yun had given her the betrothal gift, and she had given him the dowry. How could she lose?

Long Wu knew that Xue Meining publicly claimed that she was Ling Yun's girlfriend. Therefore, she had to at least win against Xue Meining even though she didn't know of the other women!

"Sigh… why is it so difficult to bring up a daughter…" Long Kun heaved a huge sigh and shook his head. "You go to my bed and take that round wooden board that I always carry with me."

It's time to take it out, Long Kun thought to himself.

"What are you going to do with that?" Long Wu didn't understand. It was just an ordinary piece of wooden board. Her daddy wore it the whole day and treated it like a precious baby. It had never left his side.

"Just go and take it!" Long Kun sniffed as he remembered the sad past.

"Okay…" Long Wu went into Long Kun's bedroom obediently and saw the palm-sized wooden board. The material of the wood was unknown, but it was clear, black, and s.h.i.+ny. It was as thick as her palm.

She handed it to Long Kun.

Long Kun took the wooden board and caressed it in his hand. A loving and gentle figure appeared before his eyes, his wife.

"Your mom lost her life because of it…" Long Kun revealed slowly. The muscles of his skinny face shook, and tears appeared in his eyes.

"What!" Long Wu was stunned.

"But that doesn't matter anymore. It has been eighteen years, it should see the daylight again!"

Long Kun used just the right amount of force to shatter the wood into nothingness.

As the wood broke into many pieces, a round piece of jade revealed itself. It had a diameter of about seven centimeters, and its whole body glowed with green light.

"This…" Long Wu had never thought that the ordinary wooden board would hide a jade in it. She rubbed her eyes and looked at it carefully.

"This is a dragon!"

Long Wu could see a dragon carved into the round jade. It was vivid and looked as though it was alive.

"That's right, it's a Green Dragon…"

This was the real Green Dragon!

He cleaned the surface carefully and blew on it gently. He then placed this piece of jade gently into Long Wu's hands.

"Give this piece of jade to Ling Yun tomorrow. You will definitely not lose to anyone!"

Long Kun puffed out his chest with pride.

"This is a good piece of jade… But…"

However, it really wasn't worth much, probably about five million yuan.

"Your father was hunted down and your mom lost her life for this jade. Isn't it enough?" Long Kun shouted angrily after seeing his daughter groaning.

He had never been more stern with her.

Long Wu certainly didn't know the great secret behind this piece of Green Dragon Jade.
