Chapter 91 Shushan City
"She is the guest I brought with me."
Xiao Ze, who had been silent, glanced at Xiao Baozhu with a distant look, then embraced An Ran and flew towards the mountain.
Seeing this, Xiao Baozhu stared at An Ran's receding back with vicious eyes.
"Hahahahaha, some people always overestimate their own abilities. They don't even consider whether the young master will look at her straight in the eye."
Tao'er looked at everything in front of her with a smile and couldn't help but gloat over its misfortune. Although she also likes the young master very much, she knows herself well and knows that the young master is not someone she can covet.
This time, Xiao Baozhu rarely argued with Taoer. The unusually beautiful woman made her feel a strong sense of crisis.
Brother Ze is usually indifferent to everyone, and no one can get close to him. But now his attitude towards the woman made her feel deeply uneasy.
She has always regarded the position of the young master's wife as a sure thing. Her grandfather is the chief elder of the Xiao family, and no one can surpass her.
"snort......."
Xiao Baozhu glared at Tao'er hatefully, then flew away on her flying sword. She was not in the mood to argue with Tao'er now, as she wanted to find out the identity of that woman.
"Hey, Tao'er. Can't you say less?"
The young man who came with them had always admired Xiao Baozhu and couldn't help but speak up for her.
“A little bit…”
Taoer made a face at him and said sarcastically.
"Xiao Mingyu, no matter how much you lick Xiao Baozhu, she will never be attracted to you."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Mingyu's face turned pale and he left angrily with a flick of his sleeves.
Xiao Ze took An Ran to the floating mountain and politely let her go. Xiao Ze rubbed his palms with some lingering feeling, and there was still a faint sense of body temperature and lotus fragrance in his palms.
An Ran was shocked by what he saw. It looked like a city on top of the mountain. A huge city gate stood in front of An Ran, with three large characters "Shushan City" carved in a flamboyant style on the tower.
An Ran followed Xiao Ze into the city. The buildings on both sides of the street were ancient and there were many small vendors hawking their wares along the street. People walking on the street were wearing all kinds of clothes from different dynasties.
An Ran felt as if she was on a time-travel journey. She looked around with interest, with curiosity and excitement in her eyes.
“It’s different than I imagined.”
Xiao Ze looked at her deeply, with a hint of smile in his cold phoenix eyes.
"So what do you imagine it to be like?"
"In my imagination, you are living in seclusion in a deep forest, with only your family."
An Ran gestured with her hands and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"My knowledge is too shallow."
"No."
Xiao Ze looked at her shy look and found her very cute.
"You are very good. However, there are too many unknown things in this world, and no one dares to say that he knows everything. Let's go, we are here."
An Ran heard this and looked up, they arrived at the gate of a magnificent mansion. There is a vermilion gate with two majestic stone lions standing at the door, and the words "Xiao Mansion" are engraved on a golden plaque above the door.
An Ran followed Xiao Ze into the gate, where stood two white-robed disciples armed with long swords. Seeing Xiao Ze coming in, everyone bowed.
"Young Master."
Xiao Ze nodded, took An Ran into the yard and walked towards the main house.
The courtyard is decorated with carved beams and painted pillars, and exotic flowers and plants can be seen everywhere, emitting strange fragrance. The rockery formed by the accumulation of strange mountains and rocks appears quiet and elegant.
"Father, I'm back."
Xiao Ze brought An Ran into the main house, where a middle-aged man with an elegant appearance was sitting on the main seat in the main hall.
The middle-aged man was none other than Xiao Wuwei, the current head of the Xiao family. He took a sip of the spiritual tea and said with a smile.
"Zer is back. Great! I think he gained something from his time away from home."
Then he turned his gaze to An Ran and asked.
"Who is this girl?"
An Ran hurriedly bent down, bowed, and greeted the head of the Lin family.
"Hello, Uncle Xiao!"
The secluded families still followed the clothing and customs of ancient times. An Ran felt a little embarrassed and didn't know how to greet them.
"Okay, okay, Ze'er, please ask this girl to sit down."
Xiao Ze asked An Ran to sit down, and then introduced the two of them.
"Father, this is An Ran. She is a friend I met in the secular world. An Ran, this is my father."
An Ran quickly stood up and bowed again. Xiao Wuwei nodded with a kind smile on his face.
"Hello, Miss An. She must be tired from the long journey. Ze'er, take her to rest first."
Xiao Ze nodded, took An Ran out of the main house and walked towards the guest room.
"An Ran, you stay here for the time being. I still have to report some things to my father, and I will come to see you later. See if you need anything, and I will help you get it."
An Ran looked around the room, which was very elegant and clean. She nodded with satisfaction and said.
"It's great here, go get busy!"
After Xiao Ze settled An Ran down, he returned to the main house.
Xiao Wuwei looked at his son who was sitting beside him with an expressionless face, as if he was keeping people at a distance. I feel both happy and sad.
Xiao Wuwei was extremely happy to see his son, who had never been interested in women, bringing back a girl.
This usually cold-blooded son finally came to his senses. His Xiao family will finally have an heir. After his death, he will have the face to meet his ancestors.
But, that girl came from the secular world. Xiao Wuwei was so troubled that he wanted to pull out all his worries. If Ze'er had to be with her, how could he face the ancestors of the Xiao family?
"Zer, that girl?"
Xiao Wuwei finally broke the silence. It doesn't matter if you die early or late, you will die early and be reborn early.
Xiao Ze was silent for a while and told him everything about An Ran's family.
After hearing this, Xiao Wuwei remained silent for a long time. His heart was like a roller coaster, up and down.
It turned out that the relationship was not what he had imagined. Xiao Wuwei felt a little disappointed and a little relieved at the moment.
He could see that his son was definitely a man of honor, and that girl was also from the secular world. However, she didn't like his son.
Xiao Wuwei glared at Xiao Ze with disappointment, calling him a useless guy who couldn't even handle a girl. Back then, he was so handsome and elegant. Many girls were crazy about him and were willing to fight against walls for him.
Xiao Wuwei completely forgot his initial conflicting feelings and his disdain for An Ran's background.
"Next month, the Yao Chi Yun family will hold a spiritual tea banquet. I will take her with me then. Let's see if there are any clues."
Xiao Ze spoke lightly.
"Why......."
Xiao Wuwei sighed and shook his head.
"It's difficult. Yun Reyue has been in seclusion for more than ten years. He is hiding from that crazy woman Shui Furong, so he won't come out easily."
"Everything depends on human effort. We can only act according to circumstances. At worst..."
A hint of cruelty flashed in Xiao Ze's eyes.
"What's the big deal? I'm telling you, if you dare to do anything stupid like that, I, I, I..."
Xiao Wuwei looked around, trying to find a suitable weapon to teach this ignorant kid a lesson.
This damn kid is ruthless, doesn't talk much, and is very courageous.
Xiao Ze looked at his father jumping up and down. His elegant and angelic temperament was gone, and he was left with only anger and frustration.
An old man who was used to pretending, Xiao Zefeng had a smile flashing in his eyes, and he stood up and flashed out of the main house.
Seeing this, Xiao Wuwei roared at the person behind him from a distance.
"You little brat, I'm warning you, don't mess around!
