Bai Ling naturally had to give the old man a way out and do Zhao Hu a favor. You have to know that it was Zhao Hu who rescued him this time, so in any case, Old Man Meng owed Zhao Hu a favor.
There was a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, and even his star-like eyes were filled with a hint of apology. "So that's how it is." After saying this, he actually bowed slightly to Elder Meng, "I just misunderstood Elder Meng. I apologize to you! I'm sorry!"
His attitude was sincere and showed respect for his elders, which was completely different from his previous firm and resolute appearance.
This startled Mr. Meng, who had been secretly annoyed by this ignorant woman. Someone had sincerely apologized to him, so how could he still refuse to accept it with a stern face? But when he thought of the girl's sharp tongue and the piercing words she had just said, he didn't want to forgive her easily.
"Grandpa..." Meng Xin felt that this pretty sister was just trying to protect Bai Xiaoxi from getting her grandfather hurt. Knowing that she had misunderstood her grandfather, she apologized immediately without any arrogance. She felt a sudden liking for the old man and walked in to pull him.
Bai Ling certainly knew that this old man had been slandered by her. He was such an upright and righteous man, not like a villain who would pretend, so how could she let it go so quickly?
Turning to Bai Xiaoxi behind him, he smiled and said, "Didn't you sigh yesterday that you never thought you'd meet your Grandpa Meng in this cannibalistic apocalypse?"
Hearing this, Bai Xiaoxi's eyes widened. Sister Bai Ling was simply lying. When did he ever say such a thing?
At this moment, I felt Bai Ling stuffing a crystal core into my hand. It was the size of a marble and transparent, but contained a trace of yellow flocs. Isn't this their ninth-level spiritual crystal core?
Bai Ling's teasing voice came from my ears, "He also said that we haven't seen each other for a long time and he wants to give me a generous gift!"
Bai Xiaoxi's glittering amber eyes stared at Bai Ling, and seeing a hint of understanding in her beautiful eyes, her heart trembled slightly. How could she really not care if she could meet the old man she once called grandpa in the end times?
He was just worried that Bai Ling wouldn't discover his secret, so he didn't want to interact with them. But now Bai Ling has seen through his thoughts. She just said those words to stand up for him and protect him, deliberately angering the old man and creating a rift between the two of them. If it is for the sake of Sister Bai Ling and the entire team, he must make peace with the old man.
Bai Ling gently nudged Bai Xiaoxi and took a step back, smiling and looking at the two of them calmly. Given Meng Guang's future influence at the Yanjing City base and the mercenary team's influence throughout China, Bai Xiaoxi shouldn't get angry with this old man for her.
Bai Xiaoxi sighed in her heart, and the moment she looked up, a cute and innocent smile appeared on her face, revealing two little fangs, making her look like a chameleon.
"Grandpa Meng, I haven't seen you in a while, and your temper hasn't changed." The next second, Meng Guang's restrained aura instantly burst out again. Bai Xiaoxi hurriedly hugged her head, "Hey, Grandpa, don't get me wrong, I mean, you're still strong and healthy, you don't look old at all." After saying this, she spread out her fair and slender hands with a giggle, "Here, a gift for you, and an apology by the way!"
