Chapter 894: Chapter 899 Entrustment

Su Pan’er’s eyes narrowed slightly.

"When Qin Yi and Su Yue’er got engaged, what was the token they exchanged? Do you still remember, old Clan Leader?"

This question made the Clan Leader, who was coughing, suddenly look up, his surprised expression impossible to hide.

However, after a moment, he laughed, "So you knew all along!"

"Indeed, I knew. But I never imagined that you, old Clan Leader, knew so early!"

Su Pan’er sighed.

Ginger does get spicier with age!

When Qin Yi and Su Yue’er exchanged engagement tokens, due to Mrs. Qin-Li’s stinginess, Qin Yi took out the tiger-shaped jade pendant he had worn since he was young as the engagement token.

After she replaced her sister and entered the Qin Family, she went through quite some trouble to get the engagement jade pendant back!

Considering that the old Clan Leader was a guardian family of the Valley of Ghosts, how could he not recognize one of the tiger-shaped jade pendants, the tokens of the sect leader?

Su Pan’er couldn’t help recalling the extra care the old Clan Leader had shown her and Qin Yi over the years. At the time, she found it surprising. But now, connecting everything from beginning to end, it was utterly terrifying!

The old Clan Leader’s face showed a trace of embarrassment.

"When young Qin Yi presented that tiger-shaped jade pendant, I only gave it a brief glance. Although it seemed familiar, I didn’t think more about it at the time. It was only much later that I remembered the sect leader’s token bore the image of an entwined tiger and phoenix. That’s when I started to suspect. Unfortunately, by that time the pendant had already been handed over to Su Sikong,"

"In truth, as you said, the Valley of Ghosts was long ago destroyed. Over the centuries, our Qin Family, leading the Five Major Clans, has seen its talents wither away, barely making ends meet. And with that sect leader’s token being incomplete, I had long lost the ambition of my ancestors. So..."

The old Clan Leader glanced at the silent Su Pan’er, "Ugly girl, our Five Major Guardian Clans have developed over time to the point where we’re just struggling to survive in Luoyan Village. Can we really depend on the weak and the elderly in our clan for ambition? Besides, the token was incomplete at that time. However, since then, I have done all I could to support Qin’s third kid, have I not?"

"You’re right, old Clan Leader. Fate plays tricks on us all!"

Su Pan’er, with her swollen belly, stood up, "Just like you said, since no one knows about this, let it rot in your stomach! Your health isn’t good right now; you should eat well and rest. Don’t worry about anything else."

Having said that, she asked to leave.

She could understand the old Clan Leader’s determination to uphold the honor of the Qin Clan, but from her perspective, she really didn’t know what more to say.

"Don’t rush, old man, I haven’t gotten to the main issue yet."

The old Clan Leader took a breath.

"What else is there?" Su Pan’er didn’t turn around.

"Ah..."

The old Clan Leader sighed, "As the head of the Five Major Guardian Clans, when I inherited the position of clan leader, I received some things from the old Clan Leader. My time is running out. I originally planned to wait for Qin’s third kid to return before handing these things over to him, but I’m afraid... cough cough, I can’t wait that long!"

He looked at Su Pan’er, "So, I have decided to entrust these things to you. I want you to pass them on to Qin’s third kid. These things originally belonged to him, and now that they’re returning to their rightful owner, it’s only proper."

Su Pan’er was shocked!

"Elder Clan Leader, since this is an inheritance passed down from our ancestors, handing it to Qin Yi doesn’t seem proper. It would be better for you to follow tradition and pass it to your own descendants, and in the future..."

"Qin’s third kid is also a member of the Qin Family. According to tradition, as the clan leader, I have always had the right to designate the next clan leader! I appoint Qin’s third kid as the next Qin family’s clan leader. If he doesn’t like it, he can find someone more suitable!"

After speaking, the Clan Leader couldn’t stop coughing. But he still bent down to fumble around and took out an ordinary envelope from the bedside, handing it to Su Pan’er.

"This... I can’t accept it!"

Su Pan’er refused, firmly saying, "I don’t know how Qin Yi will choose, but the responsibility of the clan leader is significant, and since ancient times there has been the saying to appoint the legitimate and eldest. Appointing Qin Yi as the Qin family’s clan leader is not only improper, but he will also not agree. You should keep it yourself! Find a suitable candidate to pass it to."

She not only refused to accept it but also stepped back a few paces.

"You foolish girl, if I had someone else to entrust it to, why would I choose him?"

The Clan Leader became anxious, "You don’t need to feel any pressure. Am I not still alive? As long as I’m alive, he won’t assume the position of clan leader. Besides, even if I go first, there are four clan elders, and it won’t be his turn to speak. Moreover, this token is for Qin’s third kid; if he truly doesn’t want it, he can pass it to the Qin Family’s collateral branch families. He is a descendant of the Qin Clan, and you are a daughter-in-law of the Qin Clan; do you still want to defy me, the Clan Leader? Take it!"

Su Pan’er remained silent, looking at the thin envelope. After some thought, she still reached out and accepted it.

"Since you insist on giving this to me, then let us set three rules! I’ll say the unpleasant part first, once you give this to me, then this matter will no longer be related to you. Furthermore, Qin Yi will definitely not agree to be the clan leader, so you should pick someone else within the clan to take over. If you agree, then I’ll take it."

The Clan Leader hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Agreed, I accept your two conditions."

Only then did Su Pan’er put the envelope into her sleeve and sat down once more by the old Clan Leader’s sickbed, "Elder Clan Leader, let Pan’er take your pulse and prescribe some medicine for you to take. How about that?"

The Clan Leader finally let go of the heavy burden in his heart, and a much broader smile appeared on his face.

"Good, you’re such a thoughtful girl! Haha..."

The Clan Leader laughed heartily for a few moments.

Su Pan’er sat for a long time with the Clan Leader, accompanying him through dinner and chatting for a while. When she left, she always felt a few strange gazes behind her.

She didn’t look back, but led Little Yanyan and Xiren home.

By the time they got home, Mrs. Su-Hua and Su Lao Si had already been anxiously waiting on the mountain path.

Seeing the three return, they noticeably relaxed, "It’s nearly dark, and you’re with child. What would we do if something happened?"

"It’s okay, mother, have you forgotten how strong Pan’er has been since she was little?"

Upon seeing the elders, Su Pan’er’s tense mood from the Clan Leader’s place suddenly loosened, and she couldn’t help but laugh.

"Being strong doesn’t have anything to do with carrying a child."

Mrs. Su-Hua disapprovingly glanced at her, "Why did you stay for so long? How is the Qin family old Clan Leader’s illness, is he getting better?"

Su Pan’er looked around and saw no one else before she lowered her voice, "The Clan Leader... needs to be taken care of carefully..."
