Chapter 435: 303, Orthodox Practice Method

“Looking at the structure of the house, this is a modern residence, not the ancient-style architecture of a mid-mountain estate. It’s only a little over two kilometers from the mid-mountain estate, so it probably isn’t a skyscraper, as there are few skyscrapers in Upper Three Districts. The Estate should also avoid being spied upon,” Qing Chen strolled through the spacious room, “Could it be a small high-rise?”

Aside from seven car keys, the foyer cabinet also held seven mobile phones, and the wardrobe was packed full of clothes.

Apart from a few formal pieces, they were mostly casual hoodies and sportswear.

Qing Chen knew at first glance that the clothes were all custom-made for the old man.

“The old man is quite young at heart, dressing so flamboyantly,” he chuckled, “Looking at the dust in this house, it must have been a long, long time since anyone has visited.”

As Qing Chen was examining the wardrobe, he suddenly found a button hidden behind the hanging clothes.

...

He gently pressed it, only to discover the wardrobe split open from the middle, revealing the weapon rack behind it.

The rack was filled with an array of dozens of firearms and daggers, with various calibers of bullets placed beneath it.

It seemed that these little gadgets were weapons for self-defense when the old man traveled.

Now, they belonged to Qing Chen.

“Dragon Fish, firearms, and a house, the old man’s gifts are overly generous,” Qing Chen summed up, “The old man is a good person indeed.”

However, all these gains still couldn’t compare to the “freedom” the old man had given him.

The privilege of entering and exiting the mid-mountain estate without a record was in itself the most precious gift.

Yet, Qing Chen didn’t rush out to explore the world of Upper Three Districts that night. Rather, after getting a sense of the situation, he returned to the Autumn Leaf Courtyard via the corridor.

He had many guests this evening, and it could certainly be seen as arrogance if he didn’t respond to someone knocking at the door, but it would also arouse suspicion.

Thus, to avoid any mishaps, Qing Chen forcibly restrained his curiosity.

Countdown 138:00:00.

At 6 a.m., while Qing Chen was still immersed in the Mysterious World, Li Ke had already gotten up early from bed.

He changed clothes, put on his backpack, and said goodbye to his parents.

Then he jogged from his own Peak Villas all the way to the spot he and his classmates had agreed upon the previous night.

He didn’t bring any servants, it was just him.

Last night, after Qing Chen asked him to lead the students in a run, he mentioned it in Li’s School group chat, effectively giving advance notice.

However, upon arriving at the agreed meeting spot, Li Ke found he was the only one there.

The meeting spot was in front of a significant landmark sculpture within the mid-mountain estate called Dripping Spring, which seemed to be built by the ancestors to remind the Li descendants to repay kindness.

At this moment, Li Ke stood there alone in front of the Dripping Spring sculpture.

But the 14-year-old boy seemed unsurprised; he turned and ran towards Li Yinuo’s Qing Shan Villa.

Upon reaching the gate of Qing Shan Villa, Li Ke took a megaphone out of his backpack.

After catching his breath, he loudly declared, “Qing Yi, Li Tongyun, please come out for the assembly.”

At 6:15 in the morning, the sound of the megaphone exploded like a thunderclap in the still morning air.

It seemed as if it could shatter the night still looming overhead.

No sooner had he called out than the servants of Qing Shan Villa poured out.

A servant lowered his voice and roared, “What kid comes here to make trouble so early in the…sorry, I didn’t realize it was you.”

The servant recognized Li Ke immediately and nearly shuddered with fear.

He had almost scolded a scion of the Li’s Big Room!

The last servant who scolded a master was possibly still shucking corn somewhere.

However, the servant was puzzled as to why the scion of Li’s Big Room would suddenly run to Qing Shan Villa causing a disturbance?

Yet he saw Li Ke glare coldly at the servant, “Go call Qing Yi… no, please call Qing Yi and Li Tongyun out.”

Li Ke had begun to speak but then remembered what the teacher had said last night: True cultivation is maintaining humility even before those inferior to you.

To be honest, Li Ke was one of the most cultured young branches in the consortium, but he still didn’t quite understand why he had to be so polite to a servant when he first heard it.

Only after contemplating the word ‘character’ back at home did he begin to truly appreciate its significance.

Now, he really did feel a bit more humble from the heart, even towards a servant.

The servant, hearing Li Ke speak so politely, didn’t know what to make of this sudden change, but it was unnerving.

The servant ran into Qing Shan Villa trying to wake Qing Yi.

But the problem was, Qing Yi wouldn’t listen to a servant; he kicked the servant out of the room, “Get lost; who gave you the courage to wake me up?”

However, Li Ke’s voice followed right after from outside.

“Qing Yi, I’m giving you one last minute to get dressed.”

“Qing Yi, 30 seconds left.”

“Qing Yi, last 10 seconds.”

Qing Yi, annoyed, turned over and pulled the blanket over his head, “Why the heck do I always encounter lunatics!”

On the other side, after Li Ke finished the countdown, he charged expressionlessly into the interior.

None of the security or servants dared to stop him.
