Chapter 696: Who Was That?
Translator: Vesper
Although he was chased out, Xiao Ming was not worried at all, he knew he still had people over there.
As long as Xiao Ran was still at the back of the mountain, he was not worried of not having any opportunities of returning. But at that very moment, Xiao Ming was unaware that Xiao Ran wasn’t able to protect herself.
Xiao Ming just entered the door and was stopped by someone: “Ming’er, how are things going?”
”Don’t mention it, that old thing chased me out, he even said he already found the person we should devote our loyalty to, that person is a woman. Father, are you certain we’re related by blood with him?” If it was true, did he treat them like this? Even strangers would not act like that.
Xiao Si glanced at his son, he furrowed his brows tightly: “What kind of person is that woman?”
”She’s quite pretty, but she seemed a little different,” Xiao Ming carefully thought about it and said solemnly.
”I need to make a trip back immediately,” Xiao Si clapped his hands and said after hearing Xiao Ming’s description.
He must go back. If he did not go back, what would happen next would definitely make him regret.
Xiao Ming pouted in displeasure: “Father, I advise you to forget about it, I’ve shed all pretenses with that old man, I was chased out by him,” Xiao Ming looked at Xiao Si in displeasure and said unhappily.
It was not something glorious to be chased out.
Xiao Si glared at his own son, he seemed to be hating him for failing to meet expectations.
”You idiot, there’s something we want over there, you actually went to offend others?” Xiao Si looked angrily at his son. How he wished to slap him.
Xiao Ming looked at Xiao Si without much care: “Father, it’s impossible for him to give you those things. You should know, before I came back, he already brought that woman to the back of the mountain, he obviously introduced those people to that woman.”
As long as that woman was able to make those people acknowledge their allegiance, they would not be able to obtain anything.
How could Xiao Si not understand this logic: “It’s because of this that I must return.”
In Xiao Si’s mind, although Xiao Ren paid very little attention to them and placed all his focus on the back of the mountain, they were still family, blood-related family.
Xiao Ren must have chased Xiao Ming away during a fit of anger, as long as he properly apologized, it would definitely not be a problem.
However, Xiao Si’s thoughts over this matter were too simple.
At normal times, Xiao Ren would definitely do so, but the situation was different right now.
Glancing at Xiao Si, Xiao Ming pouted: “Go on your own if you want to go, I don’t wish to return,” There was nothing over there, even the food was plain and simple, how was he supposed to get used to it?
”You......”
Regardless of how Xiao Si persuaded him, Xiao Ming did not follow along in the end.
Xiao Ren looked at his son who had just returned. He had an indifferent expression. The news he had gathered over the past few days gave him a heartache after reading the contents.
Half the people had already forgotten about their mission, they even helped others harm the young miss for the sake of glory and wealth.
Xiao Ren felt really guilty thinking about it, he thought the others were like him and held on to their task.
The representative among them was none other than his own son, Xiao Si.
”Why are you back?” Xiao Ren had an indifferent expression, there was no joy in seeing his own son.
Xiao Si frowned, it seemed it was just as Ming’er said, Xiao Ren no longer treated them like family.
”Uncle Ren, we’re here,” Ning Meng Yao’s voice could be heard from far away.
Xiao Si saw Xiao Ren’s instant change of expression, there was a flicker in his eyes, he wanted to see who was that who could make his father have a quick change of expression.
When Ning Meng Yao dragged Qiao Tian Chang over, she saw Xiao Si at first glance: “Uncle Ren, who is this?”
”Xiao Si.”
Ning Meng Yao was not angry seeing Xiao Ren unwilling to say much more, she smiled and entered the house: “Uncle Ren, we wish to quickly handle the matters here and then leave.”
Xiao Si heard their words, there was a flicker in his eyes. Leave?
