Ji Xiaoxiao opened her mouth and shouted loudly towards the door, "Dali, see the guests out."
“Meimei, I…” Situ Feng reached out and grabbed Ji Xiaoxiao’s wrist.
Ji Xiaoxiao abruptly stopped, staring blankly at the claw on her wrist. A moment later, a loud and piercing scream burst from Ji Xiaoxiao's mouth.
"Help! No! Let go of my hand! What are you trying to do to me?" Ji Xiaoxiao struggled and pulled at his hand, but her body fell into Situ Feng's arms without any mishap.
Situ Feng's mouth was agape. Something seemed off about the situation. He felt like he was being a bad guy!
With tears welling up in her eyes, Ji Xiaoxiao cried pitifully, "Grandpa, Daddy, Mommy, come quickly and save Meimei! Meimei is in so much pain, I'm so scared, boohoo..."
The quasi-god's ears were very sharp. Before Dali, who was guarding outside the door, could enter, a gust of wind swept towards Situ Feng, and Ji Xiaoxiao fell into a warm and safe embrace.
"Grandpa." Stubbornly refusing to shed a tear, Ji Xiaoxiao struggled to look up at Xie Li for a moment before closing her eyes and fainting.
The wicked and fierce man, deeply in love with his granddaughter, glared angrily, gritted his teeth, and his clothes billowed without wind. The aura of a powerful figure emanating from him made it hard for Situ Feng to breathe.
"What did you do to my granddaughter?" Xie Li, like a mother beast that had been injured or killed by her cubs, bared her sharp fangs. If Situ Feng dared to utter even half a lie, she would immediately swear it out.
"Lord Xie, I didn't do anything, I just... just grabbed Meimei's hand." Under the pressure of a quasi-god, the Spirit King Situ Feng was covered in sweat, as if he had just taken a bath in the open.
His granddaughter's every hair is a thousand times more important than the Heavenly King himself. How dare Situ Feng grab his granddaughter's hand? Those claws... he should just chop them off.
"Grab her hand, that's all? Situ Feng, who do you think you are? You've forgotten about this old man. My granddaughter is not someone you can hurt." Xie Li gently handed Ji Xiaoxiao to Xie Fengfei, who had rushed over. "You take good care of my beauty for me. I'm taking the boy to the palace."
With a wave of his hand, Xie Li sent a gust of wind to pull Situ Feng in front of him. Xie Li grabbed Situ Feng, lifting him up, and secretly weighed him in his hands.
“Good bamboo produces bad shoots. The princes and grandsons of the royal family have become increasingly unruly in recent years, lacking any of the virtues and character of their ancestors. As a general of the Ming Dynasty, I should be responsible for the future of the Ming Dynasty. It is time to talk to the Emperor about the matter of the crown prince.”
Upon hearing Xie Li's words, Situ Feng was terrified. Did this mean he had no hope of getting that position?
No, absolutely not.
As a genius prince in everyone's eyes, an eighteen-year-old first-level spirit king, and the object of affection for the granddaughter of the quasi-god Xie Li, if he cannot rule the world, the consequences for him will be worse than death!
Situ Feng turned to Xiu Qianqian and said hurriedly, "Qianqian, please help me."
Xiu Qianqian is the granddaughter of the spirit god Xiu Ran. As long as Xiu Qianqian speaks up, Xie Li will let him go.
“Grandpa Xie.” Xiu Qianqian stood up and smiled slightly. “My grandfather is a man of high moral character and great prestige. As his granddaughter, I can vouch for Brother Feng. He only touched Miss Xie’s hand lightly. He did not use any underhanded means to harm Miss Xie. I beg Grandpa Xie to investigate thoroughly and not to act rashly in anger, lest he do something that would hurt his loved ones and please his enemies. I believe Miss Xie feels the same way.”
Ji Xiaoxiao frowned. Xiu Qianqian was so clever; it was just Xiu Ran, and only a name at that. Situ Feng's disadvantage instantly vanished. Out of respect for Xiu Ran, Xie Li couldn't be too petty and released Situ Feng.
All bark and no bite. After seeing Xiu Qianqian and Situ Feng off, Ji Xiaoxiao slowly awoke in Xie Fengfei's arms.
"Hehe, Daddy, hello." Ji Xiaoxiao said with a stiff face and a dry laugh.
"Good? Good my foot! You scared me to death." Married to his wife for many years, they only had this one child, and Xie Fengfei truly loved him to the core.
The Xie family loves Xie Meimei, and Ji Xiaoxiao's previous actions were indeed ill-considered.
After sincerely apologizing, Xie Fengfei patted Ji Xiaoxiao's head and let her leave.
Ji Xiaoxiao returned to her room, her eyes suddenly sharp as a hawk's.
Xiu Qianqian pleaded for Situ Feng, her eyes devoid of any affection or concern. Situ Feng begged Xiu Qianqian for help, his tone hesitant and trembling, with an air of flattery and ingratiation.
The massacre of the Xie family by Xiu Ran back then seems to be more complicated than it appears. Among those involved, besides the royal family and the Li family, the Xiu family, whom the original owner always considered innocent, also appears to be involved!
At this moment, in the study of the Xie family.
"Sending your capable granddaughter to test the waters, Father, Xiu Ran is about to make a move." Xie Fengfei crushed the armrest of the chair with a snap, showing how furious he was.
The quasi-god Xie Li looked grave. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Xiu Ran may have found out something. We must send Mei Mei away immediately."
