Lord Yan, The Little Ancestor Has Fallen Off The Horse Again! Chapter 226: Wait for Me
It was supposed to be a scene to denounce Xiao Chen, but instead, the second branch was directly taken away by the police, and everyone couldn’t help but feel dismayed.
They looked heavily toward the man sitting in the main seat, who, up till now, had maintained a lazy yet wild and defiant deanor.
He really could be ruthless when he needed to be, regardless of whether what that police officer said was true or not, Xiao Jingping’s chances of getting out seem slim.
The news of the police taking soone from the Xiao Family quickly set the Beijing circles abuzz, though they only dared to discuss it in private, not bringing it up openly.
Ji Residence.
Compared to the Xiao Family’s traditional Chinese style, the Ji Residence leaned more towards a European and Arican design.
"The police wouldn’t be bold enough to take soone from the Xiao Family, let alone the Second Young Master Xiao," said the Ji Family Patriarch, his voice grave. Nearly 50 years old, he was well-preserved, dressed in a black suit, emanating a restrained presence.
Ji Family Matriarch pondered with her delicate brows and eyes, "They say he was taken away right before Xiao Chen, and none of the Xiao Family dared to utter a word."
That statent was worthy of careful thought—if it wasn’t for Xiao Chen’s tacit approval, who would dare to arrest soone from the Xiao Family? The police officer might very well have been summoned by him.
And it was Officer Fu Wang who went; Xiao Jingping’s chances of getting out are slim.
Ji Peizhong furrowed his brows deeply; under Xiao Chen’s leadership, the Xiao Family had grown increasingly powerful, far surpassing the other three families, while their Ji Family dwindled due to sparse offspring.
The Gu Family had Gu Cong, and the He Family had Elder He, but their Ji Family had no one.
The old man didn’t ddle in the affairs, having lived outside for over a decade, and despite saying he would return recently, his shadow was nowhere to be seen.
"Fortunately, we still have a marriage arrangent with the Xiao Family, otherwise the Ji Family really would be in a decline," Ji Peizhong sighed. If there was to bla, it was only his own lack of ability to make the Ji Family flourish.
Ji Ling sat next to him, clinging to his arm, confidently said, "Mom and Dad, don’t worry. Isn’t there still ? I will definitely revitalize the Ji Family."
It was not only for them to hear but also for herself.
Only by revitalizing the Ji Family could the Ji people look at her with new eyes and fully acknowledge her identity.
Ji Peizhong and his wife looked at her with relief; adopting her was the most righteous decision they had made in their lives.
Ji Peizhong felt a significant reduction in his restlessness and turned to ask, "How is the preparation for the D laboratory assessnt going?"
Becoming a mber of the D laboratory carried a status above others; if she could get in, that would naturally bring honor to the Ji Family.
Ji Ling curved her lips and confidently said with bright eyes, "The preparation is nearly complete; I’m confident about getting in."
The D laboratory only recruited five people each year, but thousands applied, making the competition extraordinarily fierce.
She had diligently prepared for years to get into the D laboratory.
"Good, it’s not in vain that your mother and I have painstakingly nurtured you," Ji Peizhong nodded in satisfaction, pausing before adding, "Your grandfather will be returning soon, and it is ti to bring the marriage arrangent with the Xiao Family to the forefront and discuss it."
It would be best if it succeeded, but even if it didn’t, with Ji Ling’s capabilities, arranging another marriage wouldn’t be difficult—Gu Cong would be a good choice.
Ji Ling’s heart tightened upon hearing this; just thinking of Xiao Chen’s noble and superior deanor and extraordinary status, a blush crept upon her face.
Although he had said last ti that he would call off the marriage arrangent, he hadn’t co to do so yet, which ant there was still a chance for her, right?
...
Xiao Family.
After everyone had left, Jiang Qiong finally had the opportunity to cast her gaze toward the person beside her, "She’s okay, right?"
"It’s just a superficial wound," Xiao Chen rubbed his temples, his long legs stood up, "I need to go to Lan City again."
Jiang Qiong was resentfully accepting—if it weren’t serious, he wouldn’t have made such a big fuss, "Go ahead, I’ll keep watch here."
The Xiao Family would probably be peaceful for a while after this incident.
"Mhm," he replied, his tall figure soon disappearing from the council hall.
She glanced back at Xiao Feng, who wore an anxious expression, and said with a smile, "You should go too."
"Thank you, Lady Xie." Xiao Feng felt a surge of joy in his heart and hurriedly followed.
Lately, Master Chen hadn’t been taking him along when he went out, and staying at the Xiao Family’s was truly boring for him alone.
After returning to the Feng Family, Feng Ye didn’t even enter the house but headed straight to the underground garage, jumped into a car, and rushed out.
Mrs. Feng stood in the yard, watching the speeding car. "This child, always following Young Master Xiao, how co he’s still so impatient?"
"Probably sothing urgent has co up." Feng Fu looked in the direction where the car had disappeared. He had just received news that Second Young Master Xiao had been arrested by the police, and the one who had made the report was Young Master Xiao.
As for what cri Second Young Master Xiao had committed, that remained unknown, but getting out of the police station seed to be a tall order.
He pondered for a while, guessing his son might know the reasons behind this, but considering how tight-lipped he was about Young Master Xiao’s affairs, even if he asked, he doubted he’d learn anything.
Feng Ye, leaving the Feng Family, sped along the roads of Beijing. Passing traffic officers several tis wanted to stop him, but upon seeing the license plate and the driver, they reluctantly refrained from approaching.
Mr. Feng was usually law-abiding, so driving this fast must have ant sothing urgent. They didn’t dare to try and stop the car.
"Young Master Jiang, did you get it?!" Feng Ye, with a Bluetooth earpiece, sped all the way, running several red lights.
"Got it, got it. I heard Master Chen had Second Young Master Xiao arrested by the police, what did he do?!" Jiang Qi was hastily leaving the laboratory, curious in his heart.
Second Young Master Xiao was daring!
Feng Ye sneered, "He’s courting death! He ssed with Master Chen’s sweetheart."
"Damn..."
Jiang Qi was descending the stairs, and upon hearing his words, he slipped and felt his center of gravity drop sharply. He frantically grabbed the railing to steady himself.
Feng Ye: "...Still alive?"
Jiang Qi: "Still alive."
Picking up his phone from the ground, he was relieved it was undamaged. Looking at the dicine in his hand, he sighed in relief; good thing he hadn’t thrown it away, or else he suspected he’d be the next one in the police station.
He limped to his car: "No way, since when did Master Chen have a sweetheart?"
He couldn’t understand!
Wasn’t he disinterested in won?
At that ti, they even suspected he liked n, which freaked them all out!
"Hey," Feng Ye chuckled sardonically, "Wait until you see how beautiful she is! You should be able to see her after she finishes her college entrance exams."
The mont Yun Yue was ntioned, Feng Ye beca smug, almost as if he were talking about his own girlfriend.
"Damn! Cradle snatcher, huh! He’s going after a high school student?!" Jiang Qi felt bombarded with too much information. It had only been two months, and Master Chen had a lover?
So he likes little lolitas?
"Heard you like Jiang Ying? I guess it wouldn’t be too much to badmouth you a bit in front of her."
Jiang Qi: "..."
Caught backbiting by the very person he feared the most, his body shuddered, and he pleaded with tears, "Don’t, Master Chen, you’re not old, really not old at all, surpassingly handso, making the moon shy and flowers ashad, fish sink and geese alight..."
"Beep beep~"
Jiang Qi looked at the disconnected call, took a sniff, "Damn! My romantic prospects!"
You won’t let have a girlfriend, then you shouldn’t think about having one either!
Just you wait!
