Ye Shiming didn't even glance at the bodyguard lying on the ground groaning, and pulled his son ahead of him.

He also wanted to talk to Xiao Xi and Ye Lingfeng about something.

Ye Lingfeng was not used to chatting with the new head of the main family, because he didn't know what to talk about.

He looked at Xiaoxi, but Xiaoxi remained silent, observing the street scene leading to Ye Shiming's house.

At this moment, Ye Jiayang didn't want his father to hold his hand, so he took Ye Lingfeng's hand instead.

Ye Shiming felt a pang of jealousy. His son had only known this boy for a short time, yet they were already so affectionate? And he wouldn't even let his father hold his hand.

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward, so Ye Shiming could only say some polite words, but it was all one-sided talk from him.

The brother and sister didn't respond, but fortunately, their family's courtyard house was not far ahead.

"Gentlemen, my humble abode is just ahead."

Xiaoxi looked at the deep red gate at the end of the street.

No wonder she felt that the flowers and plants along the way were lifeless, and the closer she got to the deep red gate, the more withered they became.

Even though it's August, Xiaoxi felt a chill creeping over her.

"Ye Shiming, your description of your home is so apt, it truly is my humble abode!"

Ye Shiming, who had initially found the atmosphere somewhat awkward, now felt a little uncomfortable.

This little girl says they don't know the rules, but the brother and sister have an extraordinary demeanor.

But don't you even understand the most basic knowledge? He called himself "humble abode" only because he saw that these two people had some ability, so he was being modest.

Logically speaking, as the dignified head of the Ye family in the capital, he had no need to adopt a humble posture in front of these two underage children.

Ye Shiming felt a little regretful. Why did he suddenly want to get to know these two people?

Ye Shiming's expression turned sour, and he quickly walked to his front door.

The Ye family's front door still had a combination lock.

Ye Shiming entered the password, and the door suddenly opened halfway from the inside, startling him.

"Butler Lu, what are you doing? Why are you making such a fuss?" Ye Shiming scolded.

The middle-aged man called Steward Lu looked terrified.

"I'm sorry, Master, I startled you by opening the door."

The main problem is that a few minutes ago, a tile from the main house suddenly fell and broke Liao's mother's head. I was going to call 120 (emergency services), but the phone suddenly lost signal, so I went out to find a doctor.

Xiao Xi glanced at Butler Lu and quickly stepped back, "Ye Shiming, you can't keep this courtyard house!"

Ye Shiming was taken aback, and then his expression changed.

"Young lady, what do you mean? You..."

Xiao Xi then looked at Butler Lu.

"No need to see a doctor, that maid is going to die anyway."

Butler Lu was furious, on the verge of exploding. "Where did this little girl come from? How dare she talk like that? So rude!"

He ignored Xiaoxi and stormed off.

Ye Shiming truly regretted it; he shouldn't have invited Xiaoxi and her siblings home as guests.

But Xiaoxi seems to be very thick-skinned; since she's already here, she definitely won't leave.

Before entering, she handed Ye Lingfeng a folded triangular talisman.

"Eighth Brother, keep a close eye on Ye Jiayang for a while. As for his father, take care of him if you can."

Ye Lingfeng immediately tensed up and stuffed the triangular talisman into his pocket.

Seeing that Ye Lingfeng was ready, Xiaoxi suddenly unleashed her long-unused crescent blade and rushed through the half-open door.

"Wow! That's a really long Guan Yu sword! What is she trying to do?"
