Chapter 493: Chapter 495 Mother and Son Recognition (5)
The term “a loss-making product” came from this…
Therefore, some people overlooked the excellence of their daughters, who said they couldn’t outdo men? With capability, one naturally can rise to the top.
“Actually, I have no desire to covet the Yao Family, nor do I want to take on this ‘family’ role. What worries me is that father is too timid to control the family, and if it’s handed over to my second uncle, it will be ruined in his hands sooner or later. I can’t allow my grandpa’s business to go to waste. When Grandpa’s birthday comes, second uncle and the others will definitely cause trouble… and those elders will surely oppose my marriage to Xiao Feng. I’ve seen through those superficial people long ago,” Yao Yunqing said helplessly with a bitter smile.
Mu Ruyue fell silent, her eyes flashing slightly, “When you have time, can you tell me about your grandpa’s injury?”
Yao Yunqing, somewhat surprised, nodded anyway, “Okay.”
Seeing her sullen face, Mu Ruyue patted her on the shoulder and smiled slightly, “Don’t worry, when the time comes, I’ll prepare a mysterious gift for your grandpa that will leave them speechless. How long until your grandpa’s birthday?”
“Nine months…”
Nine months, huh?
Mu Ruyue’s eyes flashed, and she smiled silently.
Nine months, enough time for her to prepare…
The two chatted in the courtyard, completely ignoring the furious Qingshi outside. After yelling a few times without a response, Qingshi kicked the door open and barged in.
“Who is the descendant of that waste Xiao Yun?”
Qingshi roared angrily, his gaze sweeping over the three people in the courtyard. However, when he saw the battalion of a hundred men rushing out, his pupils shrank slightly.
All of these people were Advanced Innate!
Even within the Xiao Family, there weren’t that many Advanced Innates…
Moreover, they all exuded a bone-chilling killing intent, the kind only those who had been through numerous battles would possess.
Qingshi’s heart tightened slightly; the Alchemy Tower was not as simple as it seemed…
Xiao Feng’s cold gaze swept across, fierce yet commanding, “I am!”
Looking at the coldly handsome face of the man before him, Qingshi’s breath hitched, and without realizing it, he was reminded of the peerless genius from over a hundred years ago.
Similar!
Indeed, too similar!
Whether it was the aura or the inherent arrogance, it was exactly like that of Xiao Yun, that waste; as if the genius of the past was standing before him once again.
Such a sensation made Qingshi feel very uncomfortable, envy apparent in his eyes, “You are Xiao Yun’s descendant?”
“Indeed, I am his descendant, Xiao Feng!”
“Good, very good!” Qingshi sneered coldly, “Since you’re his descendant, then you are also the one who killed the Third Master of the Xiao Family?”
“No, you’re wrong!”
As Qingshi was momentarily taken aback, a woman in white moved forward slowly.
With a cold smile on her lips, her black eyes deep and unfathomable, “The one who killed him wasn’t my older brother, it was Xiao Jing.”
Qingshi narrowed his eyes slightly, his fierce gaze flitting past, “Girl, who are you? You think I would believe you? How could Jing’er possibly kill her father?”
Because Qingshi was completely caught up in his own words, he had no idea what Xiao Jing had said afterwards…
“I am also a descendant of Xiao Yun,” Mu Ruyue lifted the corner of her lips, “This person is my dear older brother.”
“Haha!” Qingshi threw his head back and laughed loudly, his eyes bloodshot as he said, “Stinking girl, since you all are descendants of the Xiao Family, then go to hell, all of you!”
