"Being the Great Sage Equalling Heaven is everyone's dream. Why can't I create chaos in Heaven too?"
Staring at Boss Qi's buoyant chest across from him, Lin Fan tried hard to avert his gaze. It wasn't that he didn't want to look, but he couldn't. After all, she was his biological aunt.
"People have only seen Sun Dasheng creating chaos in Heaven. Have they ever looked at it from other angles?"
Boss Qi naturally noticed Lin Fan's awkwardness and deliberately displayed an ostentatious demeanor.
"Other angles? What angles?"
Feeling the comfort of Su Yufei massaging his shoulders, Lin Fan curiously looked at Boss Qi.
"You probably haven't heard the story of the Jade Emperor. Let me tell you a bedtime story on behalf of your mom tonight."
Boss Qi flicked the cigarette ash and took a deep breath, making her ample bosom appear even fuller.
"Legend has it that the Jade Emperor ruled the Heavenly Court, and the various immortals maintained a façade of harmony. But behind the scenes, relying on their powers, they gradually spun out of control. If this were to continue, the consequences would be unimaginable. The Jade Emperor couldn't confront those immortals directly. Otherwise, if he pushed them too hard and they rebelled, the consequences would be unimaginable. So, after pondering, he decided to enlighten a Stone Monkey by the East Sea Coast, who later became the Great Sage Equalling Heaven. And it wasn't to attain the True Scripture but to break the current awkward situation."
"Under the Jade Emperor's subtle hint, the Bodhi Ancestor enlightened that Monkey. After acquiring skills, he was summoned to the Heavenly Court, and tasked with guarding an orchard. Wasn't this just a setup for embezzlement? As expected, Sun Wukong fell into the trap, destroyed the Flat Peach Tree, caused havoc at the Peach Banquet, stole and ate the Elixir of Immortality, destroyed Yama's Book of Life and Death, and stole the Treasure of the Palace from the Dragon Palace of the East Sea. He did all sorts of bad deeds, resembling a village bully, greatly disturbing those immortals."
"When the time was ripe, all the immortals came seeking help. Only then did the Jade Emperor ask Shakyamuni to suppress Sun Wukong under the Five Elements Mountain. As for later, the journey to the West to obtain the scriptures was essentially a way to, in an aboveboard manner, rid the realm of the underhanded deeds of the henchmen of those immortals causing chaos in the living world. So from beginning to end, the Great Sage Sun Wukong was nothing but a puppet of the Jade Emperor."
The story left Lin Fan wide-eyed: "Auntie, I never thought you could tell stories so well, transforming well-known legends into something educational. I'm really impressed."
"So, do you still want to be Sun Dasheng now?"
Boss Qi inhaled a puff of smoke and slowly exhaled: "Don't you think that the trouble you're causing in Red Flag County now is exactly like Sun Wukong's chaos in Heaven all those years ago? The Jade Emperor didn't intervene but instead made all contradictions disappear and made all the immortals obediently submit. Isn't that similar?"
"Now that you mention it, it does seem that way. That's why I think you're amazing, Auntie. Truly worthy of being the 'Nanyi Beiqi' strong woman. You have such clarity in seeing things. But now I'm a bit confused about one thing: if I'm Sun Wukong, then who is the Jade Emperor?"
The vividness of Auntie's story made Lin Fan reconsider his actions in Red Flag County, recognizing that an unseen force was indeed observing him.
As for the identity of the Jade Emperor, it was unclear. It could be his grandfather, who always supported his move to Red Flag County, or Zhao Chuanchun, who covertly assisted him.
"Honestly, the waters in Red Flag County are unusually deep. Sometimes even I can't gauge it. But one thing I can be sure of is that Zhao Chuanchun is not as simple as he seems. He's a deeply scheming and formidable opponent. Yet, without the efforts of him and his son, Red Flag County wouldn't be thriving as it is, with a hundred-billion-yuan coal business annually that's far beyond what an average person could manage."
Boss Qi laid her cigarette holder by the pool, stretched comfortably, and smiled at Lin Fan: "But no matter who the Jade Emperor is, I don't want my dear nephew to become that Sun Wukong. After all, no matter how much chaos is stirred, it's just a show on the surface. Why not come to the Provincial City and be with Auntie? Auntie guarantees you'll have a more prosperous life than in Red Flag County."
"Wouldn't going to the Provincial City just make me your Sun Wukong, Auntie? How is that different from being in Red Flag County?"
Boss Qi's words indeed shook Lin Fan, giving him new insights about the situation in Red Flag County. However, a few words alone couldn't change his resolve, for if it's all just a performance on stage, wouldn't it be the same everywhere?
"The difference is that I'm your real aunt, and I wouldn't be willing to suppress you under Five-Finger Mountain."
Boss Qi's smile was both gentle and assertive. Hearing this, Lin Fan grabbed Su Yufei's arm and pulled her directly into the hot spring pool.
Lin Fan laughed as he held Su Yufei in his arms and said: "Instead of Five-Finger Mountain, you use this beauty as my curse?",
