Chapter 2260 — Courting the Kang Family
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
"So that Han Jingyi might be an alchemist?" Right Panhu had never paid Han Jingyi much mind before. In his impression she was just a rather pretty but somewhat ditzy girl. Now, though, hearing his grandfather's analysis and thinking it over carefully, there really was such a possibility!
"Very likely!" Old Master Right said.
"Han Jingyi..." Right Panhu murmured the name under his breath.
"After you return to school, keep an eye on this Han Jingyi. If she truly knows alchemy, then do everything you can to win her over—whatever you do, don't let her become Wei Zhao's right hand!" Old Master Right pondered a moment and made his decision. "Failing that, find some way to ruin her relationship with Wei Zhao!"
"I understand!" Hearing his grandfather's instructions, Right Panhu could not help but chuckle to himself. Han Jingyi was not only pretty—if she knew alchemy, then if he won her over, wouldn't that be just wonderful? His standing in the Right family would rise straight up in the future!
One had to remember that female alchemists were hardly common, and if Han Jingyi became his wife, she would surely become one of the Right family's elders in time. Then, though Right Panhu might not be the head of the family, his position within it would still command no small respect!
Seeing the ** smile on Right Panhu's face, Old Master Right naturally guessed the boy's vulgar little thoughts, but paid them no mind! If Han Jingyi really was an alchemist with a gift for alchemy, he would not oppose Right Panhu's pursuit of her—he might even help him, lending him a hand!
As for whether Right Panhu's position in the family would rise because of Han Jingyi's arrival, Old Master Right did not care. What he valued was the family's overall interest. If Right Zhentian were to take over as head of the family in the future and could not even manage Right Panhu and his wife, then he might as well let Right Panhu be the head instead.
A family head must have the tolerance to forgive. For a family to grow, it cannot be achieved by suppressing other family members; they must support one another and advance together. Only in this way can the family's enduring prosperity be guaranteed!
Otherwise, if only the head of the family was capable and everyone else was worthless, then the family was likely not far from ruin.
"Let's leave this matter here for now." Old Master Right waved a hand and said mildly, "Next, let's talk about the Kang family!"
"The Kang family?" Right Panhu was startled, unable to fathom why the Kang family had suddenly come up. But seeing his uncle's knowing expression, he must have been informed in advance! And since they were willing to tell him, that meant Old Master Right and his uncle already regarded him as a core member of the family!
This set Right Panhu's heart racing. Though he knew he was still far from the position of family head—his grandfather was still alive, and even after his grandfather passed, his uncle would take over as head, and who knew how long it would be before his own generation's turn came—snagging an elder's post first would still be quite good!
"That's right, the Kang family!" Old Master Right nodded and said, "Zhentian, tell Panhu about the Tian Sect Master taking the Kang family's Kang Jingming away."
"Yes, Father!" Right Zhentian turned to Right Panhu and recounted the purpose of the Xuandan Sect's Tian Sect Master Tian Canbian's visit to the Right family, and the matter of taking Kang Jingming away. Of course, he concealed certain important details, for after all Right Panhu was still young and did not need to know them in such detail.
