During lunch, Mo Huaiqian also came over, holding Xiao Yueyue's hand.
"Sister." Xiao Yueyue called sweetly. Her little face was porcelain white and clean. She was wearing a little princess dress, little foreign shoes, and her hair was curly. She looked very western.
Bai Jiaojiao liked the little guy as soon as she saw him. She held him in her arms and kissed him several times. Xiao Yueyue giggled, and the atmosphere at home became much more harmonious.
Xiao's father did not bring down the gift. According to Xiao's mother, it was a jade bracelet that was accidentally broken, but she had an ordinary bracelet in her hand.
Everyone knew it, but no one said anything, as if they were used to it.
Bai Jiaojiao seemed to know who Xiao Zhou's personality resembled.
After dinner, Xiao Yueyue was picked up and was said to have to go to learn foreign languages and have other classes.
Xiao Zhou proposed to take Bai Jiaojiao away.
Old Master Xiao was not very happy, "It's rare that so many people are gathered here, let's stay at my old house for a few days."
Xiao Zhou shook his head stubbornly: "We will come to see Grandpa more often in the future."
Bai Jiaojiao vaguely guessed the reason. The modern Taoist priest said that she was imprisoned, and it was probably in that villa. She tentatively said, "Let's stay with Grandpa and the others for a few days."
Xiao Zhou said: "There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. We live in the center of the city, which makes it convenient for me to handle things."
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this reason.
Bai Jiaojiao had no choice but to agree, "Then we'll come visit grandpa next time."
Old Master Xiao glared at Xiao Zhou, who looked calm, and sighed helplessly, "You two should be good to each other, stop quarreling, and don't learn from your parents."
Old Master Xiao probably knew what his daughter and grandson had done, but he was currently powerless and could do nothing about it.
Moreover, Xiaozhou's younger brother is very capable. He dealt with most of the side branches and subordinates who had evil intentions in secret as soon as he arrived. Even he did not have such efficient means in his time. One can only hope that young people will not make too much trouble.
Xiao Zhou smiled and said, "Don't worry, Grandpa, Jiaojiao and I will be together well."
Bai Jiaojiao: “…Yes.”
Old Master Xiao glared at Xiao Zhou warningly again and was helped away by the servant.
Bai Jiaojiao silently held the money given by Mr. Xiao tightly, looked at Xiao Zhou and said, "Shall we go shopping this afternoon? I have never been to Hong Kong before."
She thought Xiaozhou would agree immediately, but was rejected.
Xiao Zhou said: "I have to deal with some things and some people this afternoon. Can you go home first?"
Bai Jiaojiao probably guessed that what he was going to do was not very bright, but she still said decisively: "I am with you, doesn't it mean that we will be together forever?"
Xiao Zhou was silent for a moment, then agreed, "Okay."
Bai Jiaojiao recalled the messy gang shootouts she had seen on TV in the past, and she was ready to face the bloody scenes.
In fact, she didn't see anything. Xiao Zhou took her to a teahouse box, asked the waiter to serve the food, and then left.
While the waiter was delivering the dishes, Bai Jiaojiao vaguely saw the man in black standing outside. Then she glanced out the window at the view from the tenth floor, silently retracted her gaze, looked at the various exquisite pastries and snacks on the table, and silently picked up the chopsticks.
Forget it, I’m here anyway.
In another private room separated by a wall, the atmosphere was completely different.
A dozen people sat around the table nervously. Xiao Zhou sat in the main seat with a cold and indifferent expression, "Are all of you here?"
Mo Huaiqian took a look around and said with a click of the tongue, "There's still one person who hasn't come yet. He's the most timid one, so he's probably already run away."
"Then let's deal with it." Xiaozhou said lightly.
A person at the table said in a trembling voice, "Master, we helped the Second House do a lot of things against you before, but we are all old subordinates of the previous head of the family, and we should help his own son. Now that the people from the Second House are gone, we will only support you as the head of the family in the future."
"Yes, yes, we are all loyal to the Mo family, and we will swear allegiance to you until death. We will do whatever you tell us to do."
The corners of Xiao Zhou's face curled up slightly, "Really? What if I want you to die?"
Everyone's faces froze.
A few people reacted and rushed to the door immediately. As soon as they opened the door, they saw a row of men in black who stopped them.
"Xiao Zhou, you said that as long as we are willing to come, you will continue to use us?!"
Xiao Zhou said calmly, "It's quite interesting to learn from you guys and change your mind midway."
There was a hint of gentle laughter in his voice, but for no reason it carried murderous intent. The man sitting closest to Xiaozhou suddenly pulled out a gun.
We're all going to die anyway, so we might as well give it a try!
