The two chatted for a while, and after Xiao Chen drank some tea with his father-in-law, he left.
He returned to the room, entered the bone ring space, and practiced inside for a while.
He came out of the bone ring space at dinner time, and there were three missed calls on his mobile phone.
One is Su Qing’s, one is Su Xiaomeng’s…and the last one is Obisco’s.
"broken……"
Xiao Chen looked at the first two missed calls, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt a little nervous.
This is the mother-in-law who exploded when we returned to Xiao’s manor?
Otherwise, why did both sisters call?
If you just want to report that you are safe at home, you won't call me, right?
"I don't know what's going on right now... My mother-in-law won't get angry and leave immediately, right? That shouldn't happen."
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
Then, he hesitated and called Su Qing.
Although he was not in Longhai, escape was not an option, he had to face whatever the situation was.
"Hey, were you just in the bone ring space?"
After the call was connected, Su Qing asked.
"Yeah, yeah, just came out."
Xiao Chen nodded. Su Qing's voice was quite calm. Did nothing happen? Was he scaring himself?
"Xiaoqing, are you home yet?"
"We're here. My mom has also seen Sister Lan and the others..."
Su Qing said.
Hearing Su Qing's words, Xiao Chen's heart was hanging: "But... then what?"
"She was surprised..."
Su Qing said slowly.
"Um...and then what?"
Xiao Chen curled his lips. Anyone would be surprised.
"Then, she told Xiao Meng and I to leave you..."
Su Qing said again.
"What? Really?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen suddenly became anxious.
"Did my mother-in-law really say that? How could she say that? She told you to leave me without knowing anything?"
"How do you want her to understand?"
Su Qing's voice was still very calm.
"Of course..."
Xiao Chen opened his mouth, but suddenly didn't know what to say. This matter was not something that could be understood.
"Xiao Qing, what about my mother-in-law? What is she doing now? Is she going to leave?"
"No...are you scared now? If you are, then you should attract fewer people in the future."
Su Qing's voice suddenly became a little more relaxed.
"Um?"
Xiao Chen was startled when he heard Su Qing's tone change.
"Xiaoqing, were you scaring me just now?"
"You think I'm trying to scare you?"
Su Qing's voice suddenly became serious again.
"No, no... Xiaoqing, I'm a timid person. What's going on at home... Stop teasing me and tell me quickly."
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. He felt that it was a good thing that he didn't call Xiao Meng, otherwise his heart would be even more unbearable.
"My mom was indeed quite surprised, but she also said it wasn't really a surprise, after all, you are so outstanding..."
Su Qing said.
"Yeah, my mother-in-law is very understanding."
Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"You still 'hmmmm'?"
Su Qing's voice rose a few degrees.
"No, no, Xiaoqing, what next? What did my mother-in-law say?"
Xiao Chen asked again.
"She said that she would have a good talk with you when you come back... She did ask me and Xiaomeng, and she knows that we will not leave you."
Su Qing said this with a complicated tone.
"Xiao Meng said that if she left you, she would die... She couldn't leave you."
"ah?"
Xiao Chen was stunned, and Su Xiaomeng's youthful and beautiful face appeared in his mind. This girl... was actually very devoted to him.
"From now on, you have to treat Xiao Meng well, understand?"
Su Qing said seriously.
"I know!"
Xiao Chen nodded, also quite seriously.
"Let's take care of things over there first. Once you're done, come back early with father... Be careful, Xiao Chen, you must come back safely, understand?"
Su Qing said softly.
"We'll be waiting for you at home."
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Don't worry, I will protect my father-in-law and bring him back safely."
"Not only him, but you too."
Su Qing said.
"Yes...I understand."
Xiao Chen chuckled, feeling a little warm in his heart.
He chatted with Su Qing for a few more sentences before hanging up the phone.
"call……"
Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was no fire in the backyard... otherwise, he would really have a headache.
Thinking of Su Xiaomeng's words again, he smiled, thought about it, and called her back.
"Brother Chen, my mother asked me to leave you, and I have threatened to die..."
As soon as the call was connected, Su Xiaomeng yelled.
"I've put a knife on my neck. If you tell me to leave you, I'll cut you off..."
“…”
Listening to Su Xiaomeng's words, Xiao Chen's face darkened, and the warmth and touch in his heart disappeared in an instant.
This girl is too exaggerated, isn’t she?
"Brother Chen, why don't you say anything? Are you particularly touched?"
Su Xiaomeng asked when she saw Xiao Chen didn't say anything.
"Yes, yes...I am very touched."
Xiao Chen twitched the corner of his mouth.
"Well, Xiao Meng, your school didn't teach you to speak truthfully, did it?"
"Well, no, our Chinese teacher said that we should make good use of rhetoric devices such as exaggeration..."
Su Xiaomeng didn't feel embarrassed at all, instead she spoke seriously.
"Okay, as long as you are happy..."
Xiao Chen regretted making this call.
"You called my sister? Did she tell you everything?"
Su Xiaomeng reacted and asked.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"She...didn't mention the knife on your neck."
"Oh, then she must have been afraid that you would worry, so she didn't tell you."
Su Xiaomeng smiled.
"Really?"
Xiao Chen rolled his eyes.
"You... Xiao Meng, don't argue with your mother, okay? She's doing this for your own good."
"Of course I know, but what I said is true. No one can make me leave you... I will die if I leave you."
Su Xiaomeng is quite serious.
"My sister agreed at the beginning, so no one can separate us anymore... Even if she doesn't agree now, it won't work."
"You girl..."
Xiao Chen smiled, chatted with Su Xiaomeng for a while, and was about to hang up the phone.
"Hey, wait, Brother Chen, if there is any opportunity, don't forget me, I want to become stronger!"
Su Xiaomeng shouted.
"Okay, now that there's a chance, how could I forget you?"
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Yeah, Brother Chen is so nice...Be safe, muah, bye."
Su Xiaomeng finished speaking and hung up the phone.
"hehe."
Xiao Chen looked at his phone and thought of Su Xiaomeng's exaggerated "knife on the neck", and couldn't help but smile. This girl really made him love her but feel helpless!
After he finished laughing, he called Obisco and got a piece of news... Tonight, Alf will bring Buddhist masters to Master Maza's secret realm to ask for someone, and will also send people to the Jade Buddha Temple to steal the Jade Buddha.
"Are you trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain before taking action? How shameless!"
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Chen said a few words of contempt and thanked the Holy See of Light for doing such a good deed.
"The pot is ready, just waiting for you to carry it."
Xiao Chen raised the corner of his mouth, took his phone, stood up and left the room.
He went to find Su Shiming and told him the news he had just received.
"Um……"
After listening to Xiao Chen's words, Su Shiming just nodded with a strange look on his face.
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Chen was a little surprised when he saw Su Shiming's reaction. This shouldn't be the reaction, right?
"Qing Meng called me."
Su Shiming looked at Xiao Chen and said.
"Ah? Oh, my mother-in-law...what did she say?"
Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat, but it was normal after thinking about it. With such a big thing, his mother-in-law would definitely call.
"She asked me if I had known about this a long time ago..."
Su Shiming felt helpless.
"She said I deliberately hid it from her, and asked if I had some thoughts... Do you think she was wronging me? I have been devoted to research for so many years, how could I have such thoughts? If I did, wouldn't I have had them long ago?"
"Yes, yes, father-in-law, how could you possibly have that thought?"
Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"That's right, I'm not a playboy..."
Su Shiming nodded.
“…”
Xiao Chen was about to nod when he suddenly felt something was wrong. Doesn't this mean that he is a playboy?
"Anyway, I was implicated by you this time."
Su Shiming shook his head.
"She blamed me for keeping it from her..."
"Father-in-law, you are so good to me... No, this is more than just 'good', it is simply a great kindness. I will never forget your great kindness to me..."
"Alright, alright, stop it..."
Su Shiming waved his hand and interrupted Xiao Chen.
"One day, if anything happens, you can stand by my side."
"Um?"
Xiao Chen was startled, then lowered his voice.
"Father-in-law, could it be that... you also have it outside?"
"What?"
Su Shiming was stunned.
"That is, there is also... a confidante."
Xiao Chen blinked.
"Otherwise, how can you ask me to stand on your side?"
"roll!"
Su Shiming was annoyed and adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses.
"You think I'm you?"
"Uh, that's not the case. Your words can easily be misunderstood."
Xiao Chen smiled awkwardly.
"Don't worry, father-in-law. No matter what happens, I will definitely stand by your side."
"That's all you need to say."
Su Shiming was satisfied and stood up.
"Let's go eat. After dinner, it's time to go out."
"Uh-huh."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"By the way, have you asked Basse to prepare the helicopter?"
"It's ready. I'll take Bernard and the others there tonight..."
Su Shiming said to Xiao Chen.
"Father-in-law, please take Old Leitou, David and the others with you."
Xiao Chen thought about it and said.
"No, Barnard and the others are enough."
Su Shiming shook his head.
"No, bring a few more people, I will feel more at ease."
Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"I promised Xiaoqing that I would bring you back safe and sound... If you don't agree, then I will give up the Jade Buddha tonight and kill Alf first."
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Su Shiming looked at him and smiled: "Okay, then I'll listen to you..."
"Uh-huh."
Xiao Chen also laughed.
"Then let's split up and keep in touch at all times."
"good."
Su Shiming nodded.
"You guys should be careful too. Even if the Jade Buddha Temple sends out experts, don't be careless."
"Haha, it should be the Holy See of Light that should be more careful."
Xiao Chen smiled.
“I hope they won’t let me down…”
"hehe."
Su Shiming also chuckled.
"The loss to the Holy See of Light this time will be very great..."
