Having made up their mind, Tang Hao and Sword Saint wasted no time having their subordinates locate Ye Fan's family members. They also prepared the condolence money and items required forthe funeral service.
After that, several vehicles belonging to the War God Castle departed for Jingzhou with its ambassador inside.
Sword Saint and Tang Hao were planning on heading over too at first, but changed their minds after giving it some thought. Instead, they had their subordinates help present a bouquet of flowers at the funeral on their behalf.
Given their identities as representatives of the country's martial arts forces, they figured it would attract a lot of attention if they were to leave the city all of a sudden.
Naturally, that wasn't something either of them would want, so sending an ambassador over was their only option.
With the Mid-Autumn Festival just around the corner, the streets of Jingzhou had been decorated with
beautiful lanterns to help bring out the festive atmosphere.
On top of that, seasonal promotions were also being held in shopping malls to further enhance the said atmosphere and boost sales at the same time.
The Mid-Autumn Festival symbolized family reunions, and was one of the most important traditional festivals in China.
Although it wasn't yet the day of the festival, Qiu Mucheng had traveled all the way from Yunzhou to visit Ye Fan's mother in Jingzhou.
Of course, it was also to await Ye Fan's return as she knew how much he cared about his mother.
Ye Fan will surely come home to visit his mother on the Mid-Autumn Festival, no matter how busy he is!
To Qiu Mucheng's surprise, she found Ye Ximei looking after a child when she arrived.
Noticing the pale look on her face, Ye Ximei knew she must've gotten the wrong idea and quickly explained the situation to her.
After a lengthy explanation that felt like it took forever, Qiu Mucheng finally understood what was going on with that child.
“There's only a few days left before the Mid-Autumn Festival. Has that rascal Ye Fan not given you a call yet? Is he even coming home or not?” Ye Xilan asked while making dumplings with Qiu Mucheng in the kitchen.
Ye Ximei, on the other hand, was busy changing the child's diapers in the living room.
The Ye family had been searching for the child's parents the whole time, but they weren't able to find anything.
As such, Ye Ximei volunteered to look after the child in the meantime.
Although the child's origins remained a mystery, Ye Ximei found herself taking a liking to him and decided to raise him as her own.
Noticing how much her older sister doted on the child, Ye Xilan couldn't help but ask Qiu Mucheng about Ye Fan.
Thanks to Ye Fan's accomplishments, the Ye family had become the most prominent family in Jiangdong.
As no one dared mess with them there, they were able to smoothly expand their business to the other provinces.
In fact, the main reason Ye Fan's uncles had rushed back to Jingzhou when they heard Qiu Mucheng came over was because of her identity as his wife.
Ye Fan was the main reason behind the Ye family's success, so it was only natural that they showed his wife great respect.
Besides, Ye Tian and Ye Ya weren't the only ones present that night. Even Lei San had personally dropped by for a visit.
Right as the Ye family's reunion dinner was at its climax, several cars slowly came to a halt outside the Ye family manor.
A group of men then knocked on their door.
“Is this where Ye Fan, the Unrivalled, lives?” the one leading the group asked solemnly.
Qiu Mucheng and Ye Ximei stepped forward with confused looks on their faces. “I'm Ye Fan's mother. Who are you guys?”
Instead of answering her question, the men simply handed her a credit card and said, “As a token of appreciation for Ye Fan's contribution toward the country over the years, China is providing his family with fifty million as condolence money. Also, this document here is the country's guarantee for Ye Fan's children and family members. From now on, if his children decide to get involved in politics, they will be hired without the need for an interview. If they decide to further their studies, they will be allowed to pick any of China's universities to attend. If they decide to train in martial arts, then they may be accepted into War God Castle's 'Excellence Program' straight away. The country will devote its resources into nurturing them in whatever field they choose to pursue.”
