Chapter 778 Has It Really Changed?
He was completely stunned, but when he looked carefully and saw Qiao Yanmeng's cold face, his scalp almost exploded.
Everyone knows that He Xiao is Qiao Yanmeng's younger brother and the two have a close relationship.
"Qiao, Senior Sister Qiao." The guard trembled and threw away the whip.
"Boss?" He Xiao opened his eyes in shock, and the moment he saw Qiao Yanmeng, his pupils trembled violently.
I thought I was seeing things.
"Boss, is that you? Are you a human or a ghost?" He even had hallucinations.
"Get out." Qiao Yanmeng glanced at the guard indifferently, with murderous intent in her heart.
Although the guard was terrified, he did not dare to listen to her. "Senior Sister Qiao, Senior Brother told me to watch He Xiao. No one can take him away without his order."
"Neither can I?" Qiao Yanmeng frowned.
At this time, He Xiao finally seemed to wake up, and excitedly shouted at Qiao Yanmeng: "Boss, is it really you? You are back. When did you come back? Why didn't you inform me? Do you have a new little brother? Don't you want me anymore?"
Qiao Yanmeng rolled her eyes at him and said, "Shut up."
"Senior Sister Qiao, now Senior Brother is the leader of our Jiyue Island. We have no other choice. If it really doesn't work, you can ask him to come and lift the ban. It will be the same." The guard spoke cautiously.
Qiao Yanmeng sneered and took out a jade token from her pocket, "Is this enough?"
The guard's eyes widened instantly.
The leader's warrant?!
"Enough, enough, enough." The guard was so frightened that his voice became incoherent, and he hurriedly used the key to open the iron chains on He Xiao.
"Boss, it's great to have you. I missed you so much..." He Xiao began to cry, wishing he could hang on Qiao Yanmeng like an octopus.
"Let's go." Qiao Yanmeng's face was not looking good either. She gave him her arm for support, and the two of them went out together.
The guard hurriedly called Wei Lingfeng.
"Boss, you are finally back. I was almost driven crazy by the torture during your absence. You have no idea how much Wei Lingfeng has gone too far. So many of us allies came here to learn martial arts, but he insisted on setting up the Jiyue Company and cooperating with some noble families. As a result, many noble families sent a bunch of idiots here, making our place a mess..."
He Xiao hugged Qiao Yanmeng's shoulders, feeling angry and mad, and he looked like a puffer fish that was about to explode.
Qiao Yanmeng remained silent throughout the whole process, walking quietly and bringing He Xiao back to her own yard.
Zhan Tingbei brought the medicine box and applied medicine to He Xiao.
"Who is this handsome guy?" He Xiao caught a glimpse of him and was instantly surprised.
Qiao Yanmeng said, "Your brother-in-law, call someone."
He Xiao chuckled and said, "Hello, brother-in-law. You are so handsome."
Qiao Yanmeng was thinking about what he had just said. She felt uneasy and could hardly believe her ears and eyes.
Wei Lingfeng, has he really changed?
"Boss, why did you come back suddenly?" He Xiao ate the porridge in big mouthfuls and said, "It's delicious."
"Something's going on." Qiao Yanmeng said briefly, "By the way, when you have time, take people to the island to dig up two winter trees. They have to be in good condition, okay?"
It is autumn now, and she can't wait until spring to detoxify, so she discussed it with Zhan Tingbei on the way here and felt that artificial cultivation could be carried out, at least the success rate would be higher.
"Boss, are you dissatisfied with me for something? If you want to kill me, just tell me. That thing is extremely poisonous!" He Xiao turned pale with fear.
"It's okay if you wear protective gear. I'll give you 10,000 after the job is done." Qiao Yanmeng changed the subject: "But remember, you must keep it a secret and don't let anyone know."
He Xiao immediately changed his expression: "Okay, Boss, you know, I always enjoy helping others."
The news of Qiao Yanmeng and the three elders' return quickly spread throughout the island. Many new and old allies came to join in the fun. No matter where Qiao Yanmeng went, there would be people watching her, like monkeys in a zoo.
But she didn't care. What she cared about were those people who were eyeing her covetously and watching her every move.
"Silly girl, what have you thought about what we told you before?" Seeing her come in, the elder asked sternly.
The other two also looked expectant.
Qiao Yanmeng sat down at the dining table and said, "Let me think about it."
"Girl, you are so stubborn. Don't you feel that something is wrong? You will regret it when someone assassinates you one day or takes away your alliance leader's warrant, right?" The third elder stood up, looking helpless.
Qiao Yanmeng frowned and was unwilling to speak.
She didn't want to make things too awkward.
To put it bluntly, I'm just too soft-hearted.
"Both of you stop talking and let the girl figure it out." The second elder, who had remained silent, spoke in a low voice, "But you must promise us that the leader's warrant will never be handed over to Wei Lingfeng."
Qiao Yanmeng's heart sank.
Are the three elders and the eldest senior brother already at loggerheads?
They just don't trust him?
"It's okay, I'm here." Zhan Tingbei put his arms around Qiao Yanmeng's shoulders and said comfortingly.
"Mommy, the baby will always be with you."
