Chapter 97 Tea Party
An Ran clenched her fists tightly, her body shaking slightly with anger.
"An Ran, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Xiao Ze noticed that An Ran was acting strange, and quickly supported her and asked her.
An Ran raised her head and saw Xiao Ze's face full of concern and anxiety. The anger in her heart turned into grievance. She looked at Xiao Ze with red eyes and spoke softly.
“Brother Xiao, the old man in black is my grandfather’s younger brother.”
Xiao Ze looked surprised and obviously didn't understand what An Ran said.
He helped An Ran walk to the Xiao family's seat and sat down, then poured her a cup of tea to calm her down.
Anran slowly drank a cup of tea, and felt a little better. She has always protected her relatives, so she naturally felt bad seeing her great-grandfather being humiliated like this.
She told Xiao Ze what happened with a gloomy face. Xiao Ze was silent for a long time after listening.
He had never heard of such a thing, even though the world of immortal cultivation was full of cruel struggles for resources.
However, people from secluded families rarely attack ordinary people. Especially this kind of attack on members of one's own family branch is unheard of.
Xiao Ze looked up at An Ran and asked.
"So what are you going to do?"
An Ran lowered her eyes, looked at the teacup in her hand, and spoke slowly.
"I'll help mom find the antidote first, and then find a way to take him away when I return."
"Um."
Xiao Ze nodded and said.
"The most important thing right now is to get the antidote. Your great-grandfather's matter will be dealt with last. An Ran, don't worry. When the time comes, I will use the Xiao family to put pressure on them, and they won't dare not release him."
An Ran looked up at Xiao Ze, her peach blossom eyes filled with gratitude.
"Brother Xiao, you have helped me a lot. I will figure out how to deal with my cousin's grandfather's affairs myself. You must not use the Xiao family to put pressure on me, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to your Xiao family."
"No problem."
Xiao Ze smiled faintly, his eyes filled with arrogance that looked down on everything.
"I don't even take the Lin family seriously."
Although An Ran was grateful, she decided not to bother Xiao Ze anymore.
As the banquet time was approaching, everyone found their seats and took their seats. After a while, a gorgeous and extraordinarily beautiful woman came in from the main entrance.
She was wearing a gorgeous golden dress, looking graceful and elegant, with a figure in white fluttering in the wind, Yun Piaomiao following behind her.
She walked slowly to the main seat and sat down, her red lips slightly parted with a smile on her lips.
"Welcome everyone to our Yun family's tea-tasting banquet."
Everyone sitting upright bowed in return.
"You're welcome, ma'am."
The beautiful woman is Shui Furong, wife of the head of the Yun family. She is as beautiful as a peach or plum, but has a strange personality and most people dare not provoke her!
Shui Furong waved her hand, and her disciples came up with tea and placed it in front of everyone!
"This is our Yun family's new tea this year, Yao Chi Jasmine White. Everyone, please try it!"
Everyone picked up the teacups on the table and started to taste the tea. As the tea took a sip, everyone had an expression of enjoyment on their face. The spiritual tea brewed by the Yun family was indeed good stuff.
"This Yao Chi Jasmine White was brewed by my daughter Piao Miao. It has a clear tea color and a fragrant floral scent. The best part is that it can calm the mind and increase spiritual power."
Shui Furong's beautiful eyes swept across the faces of everyone present, taking in their expressions, with a look of satisfaction in her eyes.
When her eyes fell on an empty seat, she was stunned. She turned to Yun Piaomiao who was sitting next to her and asked in a low voice.
"Miao'er, why didn't anyone from the Yunling An family come this year?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Piaomiao looked towards the An family's seat and answered.
"Mother, someone from the An family is attending the banquet. I heard that the An family's only son who had been missing for many years has been found. This time it is the young master of the An family who has been found. I guess he was delayed by something."
When Shui Furong heard this, she immediately became interested and said with contempt.
"The only son of the An family has been missing for more than 40 years. Even if he is found, it will be useless. He will still be a useless person."
The only child of the An family is about the same age as her. He has been living outside for so many years and has not had the family's massive resources to cultivate him. How can he compare with them?
At this moment, An Ran had no intention of tasting tea. No matter how good the spiritual tea was, it could not compare to the tea brewed from the spiritual spring.
Her cold peach blossom eyes swept across the faces of the people present one by one, but she never saw the familiar face of An Guodong.
An Ran couldn't help but flash disappointment in her eyes. Yes, she must have seen it wrong. How could her father appear here?
At this moment, she suddenly wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.
Seeing her dejected look, Xiao Ze couldn't help but speak to comfort her.
"Don't be discouraged. There's nothing here. Let's go out and look for him. As long as you see him, you will definitely find him."
An Ran could only force herself to cheer up. Her father had not been found, but the antidote for her mother could not be delayed.
"Brother Xiao, has the head of the Yun family not come out of seclusion? Then how can we find the antidote?"
"Don't worry, I have arranged everything. Someone will take us to see the head of the Yun family in a while."
Seeing Xiao Ze looking confident, An Ran's anxious heart calmed down a little.
"Brother Ze..."
An Ran responded and looked over and couldn't help but rub his forehead. It was true that enemies always meet in a narrow road. How could he meet this evil star?
When Jian Liuli saw Xiao Ze, she ran over quickly as if she had seen a pile of rare treasures.
"I haven't seen you for a long time."
Jian Liuli had a bit of grievance on her face when she said this, and there was resentment in her eyes.
It’s all that bitch’s fault, otherwise why would I have been locked up for so long.
Jian Liuli's heart and eyes were filled with Xiao Ze, and An Ran, who was sitting next to her, was treated as air by her. She stared at Xiao Ze's handsome face with an obsessive look on her face.
A trace of disgust flashed across Xiao Ze's distant phoenix eyes. He hated it most when others looked at him like that, as if he was something she could easily own.
"hehe......."
Seeing Xiao Ze like this, An Ran couldn't help but chuckle. It was because he was so popular that he was followed by a group of young girls who admired him.
"Ah...bitch. How dare you come here."
As Jian Liuli heard the laughter, she looked at An Ran and her eyebrows raised in anger, her face full of fury.
She instantly forgot where she was, and the only thought in her mind was to kill the bitch in front of her. She quickly pulled out the whip from her waist and whipped An Ran without saying a word.
Xiao Ze's eyes narrowed and he was about to take action. An Ran, who was prepared, stretched out her hand to block the whip that Jian Liuli was whipping at her. She circulated the spiritual power in her hand and Jian Liuli was blown away.
"ah......."
Jian Liuli fell heavily to the ground and let out a scream.
"Li'er."
When Elder Jian saw his granddaughter fall to the ground, he quickly rushed to her side and helped her up.
"Are you okay?"
He looked at Jian Liuli with concern, then looked at An Ran with sinister eyes.
"I didn't expect that after three days of absence, one would look at someone with new eyes. You are so brave that you dare to hurt someone."
An Ran smiled brightly, then replied coldly.
"Elder Jian has a very strict rule that only officials are allowed to set fires, but ordinary people are not allowed to light lamps. Jian Liuli was the first to attack, so am I supposed to just sit here and let people beat me? What kind of rule is this? If Jian Liuli attacks and hurts others, she must be prepared to be beaten. I'm not her parent, so why should I spoil her?"
“Hahahahahaha….”
Everyone in the hall burst into laughter after hearing this. Jian Liuli was arrogant and domineering in the secluded family, and Elder Jian was a person who protected his own people. Therefore, the people present had no good impression of the two generations.
When Elder Jian saw that his granddaughter had suffered a loss and was now being laughed at, his face suddenly turned livid. He looked at An Ran with a vicious look on his face and said.
"You have such sharp teeth, little girl. I wish your bones were as hard as your mouth.
