Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

After Eric officially acknowledged his ancestry, he did not immediately leave.

Firstly, Eric Yun was reluctant to part with his obedient grandson.

Secondly, Tan Ailing and Tang Feiyan heard that Lin Yujie, who had been in seclusion for months, was about to come out, and both wanted to see their long-lost sister.

Originally, Tan Ailing was worried about Tang Feiyan's studies, but Tang Feiyan said that they were on holiday in Country A because of Christmas, so she had plenty of time.

Since that was the case, Eric naturally did not refuse their request and stayed at the Medicine King Sect.

Apart from the intense collisions brought about by "absence makes the heart grow fonder," Eric also did a lot of serious things, the most important of which was refining magical artifacts.

Three female necklaces, three sets of male and female rings, and three men's watches were prepared for Tan Ailing, Tang Feiyan, and Lin Yujie's parents, mainly for defense.

With these magical artifacts with formidable defensive capabilities, Eric no longer had to fear that his parents-in-law would encounter any disasters! His filial piety naturally received great rewards from Tan Ailing and Tang Feiyan.

"Ah, when will Yujie come out of seclusion?" After relaxing for a few days, Tang Feiyan began to calculate on her fingers whether Lin Yujie's emergence from seclusion would exceed her holiday.

"Do you want to see her that much?"

"Of course!" Tang Feiyan raised her head, "We are good sisters!"

"Is that so?" Tan Ailing asked with a smile that was not a smile, "Why do I feel like you are preparing to 'show off' to her?"

"Show off?" Tang Feiyan said somewhat embarrassedly, "What do I have to show off?"

"Didn't you proudly announce your identity as 'Second Young Lady' the other day..."

Tang Feiyan chuckled a few times, no longer concealing her intentions. She said coquettishly, "This can't be considered 'showing off,' right? I'm just telling those 'outsiders' a fact..."

"Really?"

"Ailing, how can you doubt my kindness?"

...

In the meaningless laughter of the two, Eric Yun walked into this courtyard exclusive to the Eric family.

After seeing Eric Yun, Tan Ailing and Tang Feiyan stopped playing and stood up respectfully to greet him, "Grandfather, why did you come here in person? Couldn't you have sent someone to call us..."

Eric Yun chuckled, looked around, and asked in confusion, "What has Eric been doing these days? Apart from the morning greetings, I don't know where he has been the rest of the time."

Tang Feiyan helped Eric Yun to sit on the chair and said with a smile, "Grandfather, Eric has been busy for you!"

"What do you mean?" Eric Yun's confusion deepened.

"Eric, as a living Buddha, naturally has some magical powers!" Because Eric Yun didn't know about Eric's magic, Tang Feiyan could only use "living Buddha" as an excuse, "For your safety and health, he is making a magical artifact for you to carry with you!"

"I, a pinnacle pre-heaven expert, still need that thing? This child..." Although Eric Yun shook his head and sighed, the expression on his face was extremely heartwarming.

"Who says you don't need it?" With these words, Eric slowly walked out of the inner room.

"Eric..."

Eric nodded with a smile, took out a string of prayer beads, and said, "Grandfather, this is the magical artifact I have made for you. You should carry it with you in the future!"

"Okay." Although he had just said "No need," when Eric took it out, Eric Yun quickly accepted it.

Looking at the string of prayer beads made up of thirty-six transparent and crystal-clear jade beads, Tang Feiyan curiously asked, "Eric, what is the function of this magical artifact? Is it similar to the one you gave to my parents?"

"It's different!" Eric smiled and said, "The magical artifact I gave to your parents is mainly for defense, while this string of prayer beads for grandfather's main function is to calm the mind and concentrate the qi, which is extremely beneficial for cultivators..."

Eric Yun smiled so much that he couldn't close his mouth. Although he didn't care about these benefits, he was just happy for his grandson's filial piety!

Eric Yun's smile made Eric feel that his hard work over the past two days was not in vain. It should be noted that ordinary jade is not effective for cultivators at the pre-heaven level, so Eric has been refining jade essence from ordinary jade stones these days.

Even though he has magical powers, spiritual powers, and true energy, he now feels a bit tired.

Sitting next to Eric Yun, he drank a cup of tea offered by Tan Ailing, and Eric asked softly, "Grandfather, did you come here for something?"

Eric Yun carefully wrapped the prayer beads around his left wrist and then said, "Eric, I have already arranged things for your eldest daughter-in-law!"

Eric casually said, "So soon?"

Eric Yun chuckled and said, "I was planning to finish my business before calling Old Wang. But unexpectedly, he contacted me first, asking me to personally treat the direct disciple of his important contact. I took this opportunity to mention the matter of your eldest daughter-in-law. As I expected, he was so excited that he immediately took the opportunity to help her and even proposed some conditions..."

Tan Ailing and Tang Feiyan didn't know what the grandfather and grandson were talking about, both showing puzzled expressions.

Noticing their expressions, Eric smiled and said, "Ailing, I have arranged for your appointment to the State Security Bureau."

"Ah!" Tan Ailing's eyes lit up at first, but then dimmed, "I left a stain when I left the Shanghai Police Station, so it may not be that easy..."

"Easy! How could it not be easy?"

Eric smiled and said, "The State Security Bureau is well aware of the reasons for your resignation. Who would make things difficult for you because of this? Don't forget Wang Xingyu. The State Security Bureau can recruit enemies like him. Moreover, you, a 'good seedling' who has only made the small mistake of 'improper command' as a former police officer, will not be in trouble!"

"Yes, eldest daughter-in-law, you underestimate the value of a pre-heaven expert like you!" Eric Yun also said from the side, "Although the State Security Bureau has nine branches specialized in recruiting martial artists, they only have six pre-heaven experts. Your appearance will not only not be rejected or troubled but will probably cause a scramble!"

Eric Yun's somewhat improper description made Tang Feiyan couldn't help but laugh lightly. She blinked her eyes and asked, "Grandfather, what conditions did you mention?"

"It's nothing!" Eric Yun casually said, "Just things like position, salary, vacation, and work location."

"Yes." Tang Feiyan, reminded by Eric Yun, asked, "Where will Ailing work in the future? Not in Beijing, right?"

"Of course not!"

Eric Yun said considerately, "How could I let Eric and his eldest daughter-in-law live apart? Old Wang said that in the future, she will be the deputy director of the Shanghai branch of the State Security Bureau! That's at the provincial level..."

Tang Feiyan looked at Tan Ailing, who was a little stunned, with envy on her face, and exclaimed, "You are the head of the household at home, a provincial-level state cadre outside, and you will overshadow me in every way. How can I live in the future..."

Tan Ailing rolled her eyes and scolded, "Shut up!" Find exclusive stories on empire

"Even if you kill me, I have to say!" Tang Feiyan hugged Tan Ailing and said in a muffled voice, "Unless you promise not to bully me, a commoner, in the future..."

Tan Ailing ignored her and turned to Eric Yun, "Grandfather, it may not be good for me to become a deputy director in one go, right?"

Seeing that they were talking about serious matters, Tang Feiyan stopped fooling around and looked quietly at Eric Yun.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, you can become the deputy director of the Shanghai branch not only because of me and Eric's face but mainly because of your abilities!"

Eric Yun smiled and said, knowing what Tan Ailing was worried about, "Shanghai is an international metropolis and the most important city on the mainland after Beijing. However, in this mixed place, the State Security Bureau has always lacked masters.

This can be said to be a headache for them!

Your appearance just solves their problem.

If it weren't for your qualifications being insufficient, Old Wang would probably have directly made you the director of the Shanghai branch!"

Tan Ailing thought for a moment and said nothing more.

Tang Feiyan, seeing that Tan Ailing was not talking about business, immediately became active again and asked with curiosity, "Grandfather, what did you mean by the State Security Bureau's 'important contacts'?"

"The so-called 'important contacts' refer to the Jianghu sects that depend on the State Security Bureau! Although they usually maintain the independence of their sects, once the State Security Bureau has any requirements, they must fully comply. This kind of relationship is somewhat similar to that of landlords and their tenants!"

Tang Feiyan nodded to indicate that she understood and then asked, "Which sect did the person who came for treatment belong to this time?"

"It's the Thieves' Sect from the Lower Five Sects."

Eric Yun smiled and said, "This sect is also one of the most important contacts of the State Security Bureau. I don't know how many foreign secrets they have stolen... It's precisely because of its importance that Old Wang personally called me to ask for help!"

Thieves' Sect?

Eric chuckled. Isn't that the sect of that kid Wu Yun?

From what Shen Jiajun said, he's still in France, intending to retrieve two of the twelve Chinese zodiac bronze statues that are lost there. I wonder how things are going lately...

"Grandfather, you've gone to a lot of trouble..."

"What's wrong?" This abrupt remark puzzled Eric Yun.

Eric smiled faintly and said, "I have a good friend who is a member of the Thieves' Sect, the one who brought many valuable medicines when Ailing was injured..."

Eric Yun thought for a moment and suddenly realized, "Don't worry, Eric, Grandfather will definitely heal the injured member of the Thieves' Sect. I won't let you lose face in front of your friend..."

"Thank you, Grandfather!"
