The three big shots were stunned.
What an arrogant little girl!
This was clearly stepping on their faces!
They had been in power in the mine for many years. When had they ever suffered such humiliation?
Even if Cheng Sang came here, she had to show them some respect.
How dare a little girl?
Old Master Feng was the most irritable.
He was about to explode from anger.
He rolled up his sleeves. “I must teach her a lesson today! Let’s see who’s backing her up!”
Old Master Mu advised, “Uncle Feng, don’t be rash. Our people are still in her hands!”
Old Master Feng became even angrier when he thought of his precious grandson being captured. “If she dares to touch a strand of their hair, I’ll make sure she can’t leave this mine today!”
Xue Ping said, “We still don’t know if it’s this girl’s idea or that of Cheng Sang and Xie Yunhe.”
Old Master Feng asked, “Old Xue, what do you mean?”
Xue Ping said cunningly, “Do you really think a little girl is so bold as to go against the three heads? Moreover, she’s only been back for a few days. How can she recognize our son and grandson?”
Old Master Mu was enlightened. “That’s right. She just went up the mountain this morning. She wouldn’t have found out about so much.”
Old Master Feng frowned.
Xue Ping said, “Let’s meet her first. We’ll act according to the situation later.”
It was only a few hundred steps from the entrance to the small bamboo garden. The three of them were martial artists and walked on the mountain path as if they were walking on flat ground.
Not long after, they arrived at the small bamboo garden.
The courtyard door was closed.
Xue Ping gave the Mu family head a look.
Patriarch Mu understood and knocked on the door.
It was Xiaohu who opened the door.
Xiaohu opened the door a crack and didn’t let the three of them in. Instead, he squeezed out his little head and asked,
“Who are you looking for?”
The three of them were stunned to see a three-year-old child.
Why was there a child here?
The three of them were too surprised to react.
Old Master Mu asked, “We’re looking for a girl. Is she around?”
The corners of their mouths twitched.
Patriarch Mu smiled. “We’re looking for the Young Master of the Cheng family.”
Xiaohu said, “Oh.”
They were looking for her mother.
“Who are you guys?” Xiaohu asked again.
It was embarra.s.sing for the three patriarchs to be interrogated by a little kid at the door.
But who asked the little guy not to know them?
Old Master Mu began to introduce, “This is Steward Xue…”
Xiaohu said, “Say your name!”
The corners of their mouths twitched again.
He was young and arrogant.
But wasn’t it too embarra.s.sing to introduce himself to a little child?
Xiaohu said solemnly, “You’re not allowed to enter unless you give your names!”
“Xue Ping,” Steward Xue said indifferently.
Seeing that Xue Ping had already said it, Old Master Feng could only answer angrily, “Feng (wind) Aozhu (porcupine)!”
Xiaohu looked at him in a complicated manner. “Wind porcupine? Why are you called a Wind porcupine?”
Old Master Feng almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
“What is your name?” Xiaohu tilted his head and looked at the Mu family head.
Old Master Mu said, “Mu Tan (charcoal).” Xiaohu’s expression was even more indescribable.
“Can we go in now?” Old Master Mu asked with a smile.
Xiaohu stretched out an index finger and shook it. He said extremely seriously, “No, Young Master is sleeping. You have to wait for her to wake up!” With that, Xiaohu closed the courtyard door with a bang!
The three of them were speechless.
The three of them waited for a full two hours before the courtyard door finally opened.
Uncle Quan brought the three of them into the central room.
Su Xiaoxiao sat at the master seat, looking extremely energetic. How did she look like she had just woken up?
The three of them could only endure it for the sake of their grandson and son.
“Mu Tan greets Young Master.” Mu Tan cupped his hands and bowed politely.
Feng Aozhu and Xue Ping did not move.
Neither of them was willing to bow down to a little girl.
Su Xiaoxiao picked up her teacup and drank leisurely as if she didn’t know that the three of them were here.
Xue Ping frowned and cupped his hands. “Xue Ping greets Young Master.”
Old Master Feng cupped his hands angrily. “Feng Aozhu! Greetings, Young Master.”
Only then did Su Xiaoxiao look at the three of them. “So it’s the three of you.
What brings you here?”
The corners of their mouths twitched.
Xue Ping straightened up. “What happened today was a misunderstanding. The young master has taught us a lesson and the door has been smashed. There’s enough to go around. What do you think?”
Su Xiaoxiao rested her elbows on the table at the side and supported her head with one hand. “Is this your att.i.tude when begging someone? Looks like I should kill the hostages..”
