“There’s no need to prepare. We are victims. We just need to be of our nature,” Leng Ruoxue reminded.
“Yes!” Feng Da understood. They were the victims, so they just had to pretend to be the victims.
At the same time, Ning De, who had been restless for two days in the Alchemist a.s.sociation, came uninvited after breakfast…
In the Guan Yue family’s living room.
Guan Yue Long looked at Ning De sitting beside him with a face full of smiles and was very happy in his heart. This President Ning was a rare guest. He couldn’t invite him casually. He didn’t expect him to take the initiative to visit today, haha!
“President Ning, why are you here this time?” Guan Yue Long asked politely with a smile on his face.
“There’s a small matter,” Ning De said calmly. Uh! He had also heard about what had happened to the Guan Yue family these two days, so he was still quite sympathetic to Guan Yue Long. Unfortunately, sympathy was sympathy. They had provoked Leng Ruoxue after all! Therefore, he could only express spiritual sympathy for the Guan Yue family!
“Haha, President Ning, don’t stand on ceremony. Just say it,” Guan Yue Long said very readily. Hehe, President Ning took the initiative to beg him. If they owed him a favor, their Guan Yue family’s pills would not have to worry in the future. He thought happily in his heart.
“It’s like this. A guest from our Alchemist a.s.sociation was s.n.a.t.c.hed away by your Ninth Young Master, so I’m here to ask for someone!” Ning De said with a faint smile, his expression unreadable.
“What? There’s such a thing?” Guan Yue Long was shocked and cold sweat couldn’t help flowing down his back.
“Could it be that Patriarch Guan Yue thinks I will joke about this kind of thing?” Ning De’s face became stern and said somewhat coldly.
“Uh! President Ning, that’s not what I mean. It’s just that Lai’er was grounded by me yesterday. He shouldn’t have the chance to go out and s.n.a.t.c.h the esteemed guest of the Alchemist a.s.sociation, right?” Guan Yuelong hurriedly explained. He didn’t want to ruin the friends.h.i.+p with the Alchemist a.s.sociation because of something unnecessary. After all, the consequences would be very serious if his relations.h.i.+p with the Alchemist a.s.sociation was bad. Moreover, their Guan Yue family didn’t have an alchemist, so he needed to establish a good relations.h.i.+p with the Alchemist a.s.sociation even more.
“We s.n.a.t.c.hed it the day before yesterday. Someone saw with their own eyes that our guild’s guest was s.n.a.t.c.hed away by your Ninth Young Master,” Ning De said calmly.
“Uh! Who saw it?” Guan Yue Long couldn’t help asking.
“Do you think I’ll tell you who it is so that your Guan Yue family can silence me?” Ning De said very rudely, his expression becoming colder and colder.
“Uh! How can that be? I just wanted to ask that person to confirm!” Guan Yue Long said a little embarra.s.sed. Boohoo… In fact, he was thinking about how to push this matter away. He really didn’t want to offend the Alchemist a.s.sociation! He couldn’t help cursing in his heart when he thought of this. d.a.m.n, what a worrisome thing. How could this have happened if Xi’er hadn’t been at home for the past two days!
“Patriarch Guan Yue, there’s no need to confirm. I believe that person won’t say that he’s panicking,” Ning De said confidently because the person who saw it with his own eyes was him! He would have killed his way over on the same day if Miss didn’t ask him to come today!
“Oh, someone, bring Young Master Lai here,” Guan Yuelong ordered. The guards outside the living room immediately went to look for him as soon as he finished speaking.
Soon, Guan Yue Lai was brought to the living room.
“Father, you’re finally willing to let me out. Hehe, I knew you wouldn’t bear to lock me up,” Guan Yue Lai said confidently, her greasy face full of pride.
“Vile being, kneel down!” Guan Yue Long roared, a trace of imperceptible disgust flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes.
“Father, why?” Guan Yue Lai asked in disbelief.
“Kneel!” Guan Yue Long roared again and added a little pressure.
Plop! Guan Yue Lai’s knees softened and she couldn’t help kneeling on the ground.
“Father!” Guan Yue Lai looked at his father, who had always loved him with aggrieved eyes, his face full of disbelief. Boohoo… He couldn’t believe that his father would actually shout at him in front of outsiders. This made him very embarra.s.sed. One had to know that he was the most favored Ninth Young Master of the Guan Yue family!
“Let me ask you, did you s.n.a.t.c.h someone again the day before yesterday?” Guan Yue Long ignored Guan Yue Lai’s pitiful appearance and asked bluntly.
“No!” Guan Yue Lai quickly denied, its eyes rolling around in panic. Boohoo… Could it be that the beauty had been discovered? Impossible, no one would go there at all.
“You still dare to deny it? How can it be fake if someone saw it with their own eyes!” Guan Yue Long glared and roared very angrily.
“Father, I really didn’t! Who saw it? Let him out.” Guan Yue Lai was not stupid when she was stupid. He knew very well that if he did something bad, he needed conclusive evidence. He believed that the matter with the beauty was very secretive, and no one would discover it at all, so he felt that he just needed to deny it.
“Patriarch Guan Yue, since the Ninth Young Master refuses to admit it, why don’t we call the guards beside him and ask him?” Ning De suggested with a spurious smile.
“Okay. Guards, bring those guards here!” Guan Yue Long ordered loudly for the second time. At this moment, the anger in his heart had already risen to an unprecedented height. He was already very hungry after not eating for two days. Now, the Alchemist a.s.sociation came knocking on his door to ask for them. He felt that he really had no face left.
“Yes.” The guard outside the door immediately left the living room after hearing the patriarch’s order.
After a while, the guards were all brought to the living room.
“Greetings, Patriarch.” The guards bowed respectfully. However, their faces turned pale in fright when they looked up and saw the person sitting beside the patriarch. Boohoo… Wasn’t that person a tour guide? Why was he sitting beside the patriarch? One had to know that not just anyone could sit beside the patriarch.
“Did the Ninth Young Master s.n.a.t.c.h someone again the day before yesterday?” Guan Yue Long didn’t beat around the bush and questioned directly.
“Yes… Yes..” The guards looked at each other, nodded in unison, and said honestly.
