The next day, at three in the afternoon.
At the Capital International Airport, a private jet slowly landed. Wan Yunting, dressed in casual attire and carrying a backpack, was escorted by six bodyguards in black suits through a special channel out of the airport. He boarded a business car and headed directly back to the Ouyang family.
It had been almost four months since Wan Yunting left the capital to go to the Boundless Taoist Temple.
In these four months, many things had happened in the capital. For instance, two months ago, his second sister-in-law, Wang Chulin, had given birth to a son for his second brother, Wan Dongming!
Simultaneously, the capital had hosted an Olympic Games. Under the leadership of Gu Yuanbai, the Chinese Medicine Association had organized a professional Chinese medicine team. They provided excellent Chinese medicine services to the national Olympic athletes and foreign athletes in the Olympic Village, promoting and disseminating the profound culture of Chinese medicine to foreigners.
After the Olympic Games concluded, at a grand assembly, many leaders praised Gu Yuanbai, the Chairman of the Chinese Medicine Association, and Liu He, the Vice Chairman. They were also entrusted with the task of promoting and disseminating Chinese medicine abroad in the future.
For a time, the names of Gu Yuanbai and Liu He resounded throughout the entire Chinese medicine and medical fields of China.
Furthermore, the Traditional Medicine Alliance, which was established in country H, had convened the presidents of medical associations from various countries in the capital. However, due to Wan Yunting's incident, his resignation as Chairman of the Chinese Medicine Association of China, and his strong recommendation for Liu He to become the President of the Traditional Medicine Alliance,
Jung Min-ki, the President of the Korean Medicine Association, Ishihara Taro, the President of the Japanese Han Medicine Association, and Kil Mihon, the Chairman of the Indian Ayurvedic Medicine Association, accompanied by his granddaughter Kil Diya,
along with Nguyen Van The, the President of the Vietnamese Southern Medicine Association, and Pasong, the new President of the Thai Ancient Medicine Association, all attended. They unanimously opposed Liu He becoming the President of the Traditional Medicine Alliance.
During the election for the President of the Traditional Medicine Alliance, it was Wan Yunting who had conquered the medical experts from various national medical associations with his exquisite medical skills, thereby becoming the President of the Alliance.
Now that Wan Yunting had been forced to withdraw from the Chinese Medicine Association of China due to public opinion and had resigned as Chairman, he naturally could no longer serve as the President of the Alliance.
When the presidents and chairmen of the various national medical associations heard that Gu Yuanbai, the Chairman of the Chinese Medicine Association of China, had suggested their Vice Chairman, Liu He, succeed Wan Yunting, Jung Min-ki and the others directly refused.
After all, Liu He was not Wan Yunting!
Because privately, Liu He had engaged in a sparring match with Jung Min-ki, but he had lost!
Jung Min-ki, as the Vice President of the Alliance, ultimately decided that due to the personal situation of Wan Yunting, the Chairman of the Chinese Medicine Association of China, the exchange activities or events of the Traditional Medicine Alliance would be temporarily suspended and could not take place in China.
As a result, the Chinese Medicine Association of China also missed opportunities for exchanges with medical associations from other countries. This left Liu He feeling extremely resentful, as he believed he was not inferior to Wan Yunting in the art of medicine!
As for the public opinion and negative news surrounding Wan Yunting at the time, the outside world had long forgotten these matters as time passed.
After all, for the general public and netizens, so-called news and public opinion were fleeting. Once time passed, they would fade away. Who had the leisure to pay attention to these things every day?
However, in the Chinese martial arts world, news about Wan Yunting had consistently remained at the top of the martial arts forum.
The major martial arts sects had a website forum called the Martial Arts Forum. People from various sects frequented this forum. As soon as any incident, big or small, occurred in a sect, it would quickly spread on the forum, informing all the major martial arts sects.
Three months ago, after the incident at the Kunlun Sect, it caused a huge uproar on the Martial Arts Forum. All martial artists and martial arts enthusiasts alike cursed the Yuan father and son of the Kunlun Sect as traitors to the righteous path.
The Kunlun Sect being sealed, as well as the collusion of the sect leaders of the Kongtong Sect and Diancang Sect with the Tianyan Main Divine Cult, also caused widespread controversy throughout the martial arts world.
Finally, the former grand elders of the Kongtong Sect and Diancang Sect personally intervened, directly purged their own sects, and expelled Lu Chenzi from the Kongtong Sect!
As for Zhang Boyun, he had been killed by Yuan Gaowu in the Death Valley of Kunlun Mountain. However, the former grand elder of the Diancang Sect showed no mercy and directly expelled all of Zhang Boyun's family members and disciples from the sect. This was how the reputation of the Diancang Sect and Kongtong Sect was preserved, preventing them from being sealed and punished like the Kunlun Sect.
However, the news of Wan Yunting monopolizing the martial arts secrets of the Snow Mountain Sect and refusing to hand them over to the Martial Arts Association became the biggest news on the Martial Arts Forum, sparking discussions among countless martial artists.
Wan Yunting had also completely become a person of crooked ways. Even on the Martial Arts Forum, those brainless trolls threatened to challenge Wan Yunting directly and seize the Snow Mountain Sect martial arts secrets to hand them over to the Martial Arts Association once he appeared.
But talk is cheap, and who would dare to truly challenge Wan Yunting to a duel?
Although the fact that Chen Jing and Master Kong Wu had gone to the Boundless Taoist Temple to find Wan Yunting and were subsequently beaten and hung on a tree for a day and a night had not spread to the entire martial arts world,
the praise for Wan Yunting being a martial arts prodigy was not doubted by anyone.
In fact, among the younger generation in the entire martial arts world, Wan Yunting could be called second to none, with no one daring to claim first.
Moreover, behind Wan Yunting stood the Ouyang family of the capital!
At this moment, at the Ouyang family residence, upon Wan Yunting's return, Ouyang Zhixin and Xia Xiangyun, who were at home, along with their daughter Ouyang Fanmeng, greeted him. "Brother, you're finally back…"
The first to welcome Wan Yunting was his younger sister, Ouyang Fanmeng, who rushed into his arms and said happily, "I thought you were hiding in the mountains like a wild man."
"Hmph, what wild man?"
Wan Yunting was amused by the girl's words. He patted her back, and the siblings then let go, turning to face his parents, Ouyang Zhixin and Xia Xiangyun. "Dad, Mom, I'm back."
"It's good that you're back."
Xia Xiangyun held his arm, her eyes filled with concern as she looked him over. She smiled, "You've lost weight, but you look more energetic."
Ouyang Zhixin also patted his arm. Wan Yunting now looked much better than when he was at home before.
Previously, the deaths of Lu Xiaodie and Zheng Rong had dealt a severe blow to Wan Yunting. Filled with remorse and guilt, his spirit had been low, and he was utterly dejected…
Wan Yunting had gone to the Kunlun Sect, stayed with Chen Qiuyun for a while, and then entered seclusion for three months under the valley. During these three months, he had come to terms with many things. Although he still felt guilty about the deaths of Lu Xiaodie and Zheng Rong, he had largely let go.
Life had to go on, and people had to look forward. Many people were waiting for his return at home.
"Where's Yanxi?" Wan Yunting asked.
"Sister-in-law is resting in the backyard," Ouyang Fanmeng replied.
Wan Yunting, who hadn't seen his woman in months, smiled and said, "I'll go find her."
"Go ahead quickly."
Ouyang Zhixin and Xia Xiangyun nodded with smiles and held onto their daughter, telling her not to tag along and make a fuss…
Wan Yunting walked quickly towards the backyard of the courtyard. As he rounded the long corridor, he saw under a tree in the back garden. Fang Yanxi, wearing a maternity dress and with a bulging belly, was sitting on a lounge chair, holding her phone and video calling her secretary, Lin Xiaoqi. She said, "You need to contact the vice president about this matter and discuss it clearly. It absolutely cannot be sloppy, do you understand? Yes, and also about Guangzheng Group…"
Seeing his woman video calling and arranging work, Wan Yunting walked towards her softly. Fang Yanxi didn't notice him and continued to guide Lin Xiaoqi on work matters. It wasn't until Wan Yunting reached her back and bent down, his head appearing over Fang Yanxi's shoulder, and his large head also appearing on the WeChat video, that Lin Xiaoqi, on the other end at the company, exclaimed, "Ah, Mr. Wan…"
Fang Yanxi was also startled by the man's sudden appearance. She dropped her phone, but he quickly caught it. Turning her head, she saw Fang Yanxi's eyes gazing at him with a hint of anger, her lips pursed, silent.
Looking at her gaze, Wan Yunting felt a face full of guilt and embarrassment. He chuckled with the phone, "Still calling?"
Fang Yanxi snatched the phone from him. Seeing that the video call was still active, she quickly adjusted her emotions and said to Lin Xiaoqi, "Xiaoqi, go find the vice president to discuss it. If it's still not settled, then tell me."
"Okay, Ms. Fang. That's all for now. Bye-bye."
After Lin Xiaoqi finished speaking, Fang Yanxi nodded and hung up the video call.
Wan Yunting, who was squatting beside her, looked at her swollen belly. He was so excited that he couldn't help but reach out his hand to caress Fang Yanxi's belly. The child inside seemed to sense something and kicked her belly. This caused Fang Yanxi to flinch in pain. She raised her hand and pushed away Wan Yunting's hand, "What are you touching? Weren't you comfortable staying in the mountains? Why did you come back?"
Seeing the woman's resentful gaze and angry expression, Wan Yunting, squatting beside her, felt a face full of embarrassment and awkwardness. He quickly apologized, "Yanxi, I was wrong. I shouldn't have stayed away for so long and left you alone at home. I was irresponsible. How about you hit me to vent your anger?"
Fang Yanxi glared at him with her red eyes and raised her hand to slap Wan Yunting's face, "As if I wouldn't dare to hit you."
Wan Yunting covered his face where he had been hit, knowing that the woman wasn't using her full strength. He said sincerely, "I promise you, I'll never run off again. I'll definitely stay by your side. I want to witness the birth of our daughter with my own eyes."
Fang Yanxi shot him a resentful glance. For the past few months, this scoundrel's absence had caused her immeasurable resentment.
But seeing the man's sincere apology at this moment, the pent-up resentment in her heart dissipated like smoke. She pouted her lips slightly and said with a hint of grievance, "You're really not leaving anymore?"
"Not leaving."
Wan Yunting held Fang Yanxi's jade hand and nodded gently and earnestly.
Fang Yanxi's emotions broke down instantly. The tears that had been welling up in her eyes then slid down…
Seeing this, Wan Yunting's heart ached. He quickly stood up, bent down, and hugged Fang Yanxi, saying gently, "I'm sorry, Yanxi. It's all my fault. I've made you suffer…"
Fang Yanxi, hugging the man, sobbed. After a long while, she asked, "Are you okay now?"
Wan Yunting released her, knowing she was asking about his condition. He nodded and smiled, "Yes, I'm fine."
"That's good then."
Fang Yanxi nodded, her beautiful eyes, still bearing tear marks, glanced at him and said, "I'm due in a few days. You need to stay by my side honestly. Even if the sky falls, you can't leave, otherwise, I'll make sure you never see me and our daughter again!"
"Okay, okay, okay, I promise I'll stay by your side. Please don't be angry anymore."
Wan Yunting quickly said with a smile to placate her. He knew that after his long absence, the woman had suffered a lot of grievances alone at home. It was normal for her to take her anger out on him, because it was all his fault…
