Hearing the housekeeper's words, Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat.
Here we come!
"Where is he?"
"In the front hall."
The butler replied respectfully.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
Xiao Chen nodded, sent the butler away, and looked at Li Guizi.
"Senior Li, will you join me?"
"Haha, you two are meeting each other, what am I going to do?"
Li Guizi smiled, but then he thought of something and nodded.
"Forget it. You and your son haven't seen each other for a long time. I'm afraid I don't know what to say for the moment. Then I'll go with you."
Xiao Chen gave Li Guizi a grateful look. He really didn't know how to face Xiao Sheng.
"Let's go."
Li Guizi said this and walked towards the hall in the front yard.
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and quickly followed.
As he walked, he was thinking about what attitude he should take towards Xiao Sheng.
When we met, you had a cold face?
Or smile?
It doesn't seem good to have a cold face, but it would also look weird if I smiled.
It was not the first time that he thought about how he should behave when he met Xiao Sheng.
Still, I couldn't figure it out.
Soon, the two came to the front hall and saw a figure in a white robe sitting on a chair drinking tea from afar.
"Come in."
Li Guizi glanced at Xiao Chen and shook his head. There are not many fathers and sons like this in the world.
Xiao Chen nodded and followed him in.
Hearing the noise, the man in white robe who was drinking tea turned his head to look.
When their eyes met, he smiled, and Xiao Chen felt relieved.
It’s Xiao Sheng!
When coming to Tianwai Tian, Xiao Chen was worried about Xiao Sheng, wondering if something had happened to him.
Now it appeared in front of him intact, which made him feel relieved.
However, he did not show it and looked at Xiao Sheng expressionlessly.
Most Chinese fathers and sons are like this, not close.
Especially for them, there was a gap between them before, so it was even more difficult to get close to each other.
“I didn’t expect that we would meet in Tianwaitian.”
Xiao Sheng spoke slowly, his voice as gentle as jade.
“I didn’t expect that.”
Xiao Chen said calmly.
"hehe."
Li Guizi looked at Xiao Sheng, then at Xiao Chen, and smiled.
"Alright, I don't know what's going on between you and your father, but you both care about each other, so don't be so tense... Don't you know why he came to Tianwai Tian, brother Xiao? And Xiao Chen, didn't you come to Tianwai Tian just to find your father? Didn't you expect that? I haven't forgotten how excited you were when I said the word 'Xiao Sheng'."
“…”
Xiao Sheng and Xiao Chen were both speechless and felt a little awkward for a moment.
Especially Xiao Chen. What's going on with this old cripple? Why is he exposing his past?
However, after hearing what Li Guizi said, Xiao Sheng's smile became even more pronounced, and the atmosphere in the hall became a lot more relaxed.
"Let's all sit down and talk."
Li Quezi sat down first.
"Um."
Xiao Chen and Xiao Sheng nodded and sat down.
Someone brought more tea and then left.
"I'm sorry I took so long and made you worried."
Xiao Sheng looked at Xiao Chen and said apologetically.
Xiao Chen was a little surprised. The previous Xiao Sheng was a typical Chinese father who never expressed his thoughts and would never admit his mistakes to his children.
"Give."
Xiao Chen thought about it, took out the soul stone from the bone ring and placed it on the table.
"You asked Uncle Seven to give it to me. Now that I see you, I'm returning it to you."
"Keep it."
Xiao Sheng shook his head.
"It's a thought to keep it with you. If something happens to me one day, you'll be the first to know."
After hearing what Xiao Sheng said, Xiao Chen was silent for a few seconds and put the soul stone away again.
"I didn't expect to be delayed for so long this time when I came to Tianwaitian..."
Xiao Sheng took a sip of tea.
"After learning that you were coming, I wanted to meet you as soon as possible, but I had some things to do..."
"I don't want to hear any explanation, just seeing you is enough."
Xiao Chen interrupted Xiao Sheng and said lightly.
"Well, Brother Xiao, did you hear about it when you came here?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting colder, Li Guizi changed the subject.
"Something happened in Tianmen City."
"Yeah, I heard about it."
Xiao Sheng nodded and looked at Xiao Chen.
"You did it?"
"yes."
Facing Xiao Sheng, Xiao Chen would not hide anything.
"They are from the Holy Heaven Sect and they deserve to be killed."
"He really deserves to be killed."
Xiao Sheng nodded, then looked at Li Guizi helplessly.
That look is... didn't I tell you to look at him?
"Well, by the time I got there, they had already finished the fight."
Li Quezi coughed dryly.
"Fortunately, this guy was not exposed. I don't know who killed him over at Tianshan."
"Who is my mother?"
Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Sheng and asked directly.
“…”
Xiao Sheng was surprised by Xiao Chen's directness and hesitated whether to tell him everything.
"Since I'm here, I must figure it out. If I don't figure it out this time, I won't leave Tianwaitian."
Xiao Chen said in a deep voice.
He wants to let Xiao Sheng see his determination!
"Well, you two can chat, I'll go back and rest."
Seeing this, Li Guizi stood up and tried to leave.
"I'm not used to walking like this because I suddenly threw away my crutches. I'll practice more."
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. Your reason is really great.
Before Li Guizi left, Qi Su and Murong Yue arrived.
Apparently, they got the message and came over to meet him.
"Grandma, why are you here?"
Xiao Chen stood up and went to greet him.
Xiao Sheng looked at this with a bit of envy, as his son didn't have such a nice attitude towards him.
And...grandma?
How come I don’t know that I have such a mother!
"Haha, I heard there are guests."
Qi Su smiled and her eyes fell on Xiao Sheng's face.
She had heard about Xiao Chen and Xiao Sheng from Murong Yue, and had some understanding of them.
"Junior Xiao Sheng, greetings to Senior Qi."
Xiao Sheng bowed.
"Oh? You know me?"
Qi Su was a little surprised and chuckled.
"We are all family, no need to be polite, please take a seat."
"Grandma, he is not the old fortune teller's son. Let's talk about it separately."
Xiao Chen thought of something and spoke in a low voice.
He was afraid that Qi Su would say "what a big boy", which would be embarrassing.
"How could grandma not know?"
Qi Su rolled her eyes at Xiao Chen. Did this guy think she was stupid?
"My humble self is Murong Yue, nice to meet Senior Xiao."
Murong Yue looked at Xiao Sheng. It was true that the father and son were somewhat similar.
"Hello."
Xiao Sheng nodded. He heard from Li Guizi that Murong Yue was from the Wenqing Tower and had an unusual relationship with Xiao Chen.
This is equivalent to... a daughter-in-law?
"Yue'er is my disciple."
Qi Su was afraid that Xiao Sheng would look down on Murong Yue's background, so he said something.
"You've been with me all these years."
"Haha, I have long heard of Senior Qi's great name. You are in charge of such a large Wenqing Building. What a skill and style you have..."
Xiao Sheng praised.
"Ms. Murong will definitely be better than you in the future."
"This girl's mind is not on the Love Questioning Building."
Qi Su chuckled and glanced at Xiao Chen.
"Who knows, it won't be long before I have to run away with someone."
