A song from Chengdu revived a closed-down pub.

During the time his master and senior brother were in Kyoto, Su Fan barely went to the company.

Once they left, Su Fan began his nine-to-five workday.

That day, as soon as Su Fan arrived at the company, a group of people swarmed around him, all of them full of enthusiasm, calling him "Junior Brother" and "Junior Uncle" one after another.

Su Fan was a little confused.

Those people quickly began to introduce themselves.

"Greetings, junior brother! I am Yuan Hao, a disciple of Master Qu Feiming!"

"My name is Zhou Rui, and I'm also Master Qu's apprentice!"

"My name is Pan Jiyuan. Master Qu is my grandmaster. Greetings, Junior Uncle!"

……

After listening for a while, Su Fan finally understood what was going on.

It turns out that during the time Su Fan was away from the company, many people had joined.

Many of these people were Qu Feiming's disciples and grand-disciples.

In fact, these people are all quite skilled, after all, they have formal training, solid basic skills, and are quite well-known in the industry.

But seeing him calling him "Junior Brother" and "Junior Uncle" repeatedly, He Xiaoxiao couldn't help but slap her forehead.

Xu Meng noticed and asked with concern, "Xiaoxiao, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No," He Xiaoxiao said, rubbing her forehead, "I just feel like my head is buzzing."

Do you have a cold?

"It's nothing, it's just my old problem acting up again."

"What's your chronic problem?"

He Xiaoxiao answered seriously: "Intermittent witnessing of cognitive dissonance scenarios induces social embarrassment suffocation syndrome."

"What do you mean?"

"Literal meaning."

……

Over there, the newcomers were still enthusiastically calling each other "Junior Brother" and "Junior Uncle."

Su Fan wasn't annoyed, nor did he expose them. He just smiled meaningfully and exchanged pleasantries with them one by one.

His calm and composed demeanor was impeccable; no one could find fault with it.

Watching this scene, He Xiaoxiao exclaimed sincerely, "I'm impressed!"

Xu Meng was completely baffled: "What's wrong with you?"

He Xiaoxiao turned her head and said seriously, "Let me ask you, if your grandfather suddenly had a whim and went to the kindergarten to befriend the other children, how would you feel?"

Xu Meng looked completely bewildered: "Isn't this a joke?"

"Who says otherwise?" He Xiaoxiao sighed.

"What do you mean?"

"It means exactly what it says."

"don't know."

"You'll understand when the time comes."

In fact, He Xiaoxiao had wanted to remind her grandfather's disciples and grand-disciples several times that they were calling the wrong people by the wrong generation. According to the generational order, they should call this junior brother "Grandmaster Uncle".

But the words she was about to say were swallowed back down.

Because she wasn't sure why this relationship hadn't been made public, she didn't dare to make a decision on her own.

That evening, He Xiaoxiao made a special trip to Qu Feiming's house and told him everything that had happened at the company that day.

Upon hearing this, Qu Feiming slapped his thigh and jumped to his feet: "Holy crap! This is a complete blunder!"

"Grandpa, why haven't you made your relationship with Su Fan public yet?"

Qu Feiming explained, "Back then, it was Junior Uncle Su who wanted to use me as a shield. He didn't want others to come after him because of this relationship, so he wanted some peace and quiet."

He Xiaoxiao curled her lips: "Your shield isn't very effective. Now all the arrows are coming at us, and the ones shooting them are your own disciples and followers."

"No," Qu Feiming paced back and forth in the room, "I have to go and clarify this matter."

"Weren't you going to be his shield? Why are you clarifying things now? Didn't you shield him for nothing?"

"It's different. Back then, no one knew that my grandmaster uncle had such great power, so my shield was useful. Now, all the big shots in the circle know about Su Fan's background, so who would dare to cause him trouble? Therefore, whether my shield works or not is irrelevant."

He Xiaoxiao reminded him, "Grandpa, what will happen to your disciples and grand-disciples if you tell anyone now? How embarrassed they will be! Today they are calling each other 'Junior Brother' and 'Junior Uncle' so affectionately, but tomorrow when they open their eyes, they will have to call each other 'Grand Uncle.' Their seniority will drop by two levels overnight. Who can stand that?"

"I can't worry about that now, I have to go to the company tomorrow!"

……

The next morning, Qu Feiming arrived at Han Tang Entertainment.

As soon as his master arrived, all the disciples and their followers swarmed around him, each one incredibly enthusiastic.

"Master, what brings you here?"

"Master, please have a seat, I'll make you some tea!"

"Master, you've come at the perfect time! We just started our job and were just about to give you our report!"

……

Qu Feiming looked at the group of disciples and their followers in front of him, feeling both annoyed and amused.

Qu Feiming asked, "Are you all getting used to things at the company?"

"I'm used to it! I'm so used to it, Master. The atmosphere in this company is really great, especially Junior Brother Su Fan. He's so approachable; he was chatting and laughing with us yesterday!"

Qu Feiming almost spat out his tea.

Just then, someone outside shouted, "President Su is here!"

Yuan Hao immediately stood up and hurried out to greet him, calling out warmly from afar, "Junior Brother! Master has arrived and is in the reception room now!"

Su Fan raised an eyebrow, a playful smile appearing on his lips.

Before Su Fan could even go inside, those people, including Qu Feiming, came out.

When the other people in the company saw so many people, they also gathered around.

He Xiaoxiao slapped her forehead and said, "Well, it's finally here!"

Xu Meng asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Just you wait and see!"

Upon seeing Qu Feiming enter the hall, someone said, "Master, please sit down, why are you being so polite with your junior brother..."

Before he finished speaking, Qu Feiming straightened his clothes, his expression became serious, and in front of all his disciples and grand-disciples, he respectfully cupped his hands, bowed, and said loudly, "Qu Feiming greets Junior Uncle."

The hall fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone's expression froze on their faces.

After a good five or six seconds, someone chuckled dryly and said, "Master... that joke of yours went a bit too far, hahaha..."

Qu Feiming said seriously, "Who's joking with you? Don't be disrespectful. In terms of seniority, Su Fan is my proper junior uncle, and my master is his second senior brother."

With a loud bang, the whole room exploded.

"Wh...what?!"

"Junior Martial Uncle? Master, your junior martial uncle?!"

"Am I overexcited and hallucinating?!"

"Then...we'll call him..."

The faces of Qu Feiming's disciples and followers changed from red to white, and then from white to green, at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Some people immediately started counting their generational ranking on their fingers.

"My master calls Su Fan 'Junior Uncle,' I call my master 'Master,' my master calls me 'Grand Disciple,' and I call Su Fan... Holy crap, Sect Ancestor!"
