“Don’t spout nonsense. I didn’t!” Guan Yue Lai couldn’t help reprimanding when he heard the guard.
“Shut up! d.a.m.n it, why didn’t anyone tell me?” Guan Yue Long was furious. The guards in the family were really looking down on him even more.
“Patriarch, we were arranged by Young Master Lai to watch over those people and couldn’t leave at all! After we were transferred back by Young Master this morning, we stayed in the Lai yard to play with him and didn’t have the chance to leave.” A guard composed himself and explained. He knew that they were now considered locusts on the vine with Feng Da and the others, so what couldn’t be said would definitely rot in their stomachs. Fortunately, they had discussed the excuse beforehand!
“Where are those people?” Guan Yue Long asked while suppressing his anger. However, a big question mark couldn’t help surging in his heart. What do you mean by those people?
“They were locked in the side yard that our family abandoned by Young Master!” the guard replied.
“Release those people immediately. Remember, don’t slight them!” Guan Yue Long hurriedly ordered and glared at Guan Yue Lai, who didn’t dare to make a sound because of his roar.
“Yes,” the guard said quickly and left the living room.
“Hehe, President Ning, this matter…” Guan Yue Long turned his head and looked at Ning De carefully. He stopped mid-sentence. Alas! He knew that it was impossible to minimize this matter since Ning De had found the door!
“Patriarch Guan Yue, I can’t help you with this matter. Do you know who your son s.n.a.t.c.hed?” Ning De said with an expression that said ‘I can’t help you’.
“Who is it?” Guan Yuelong was shocked. From what Ning De said, could it be a big shot that he couldn’t afford to offend? His heart turned cold at the thought of this possibility!
“The woman that the Ninth Young Master s.n.a.t.c.hed is the future president of our headquarters. One of his subordinates is His Excellency Du Min’s beloved disciple. Uh! You do know Excellency Du Min, right? He’s famous for being protective of his loved ones. Do you think I can help you?” Ning De said with a very regretful expression, but he was laughing in his heart. Hehe, this feeling of bullying was really good!
“I… I know!” Cold sweat broke out on Guan Yue Long’s forehead after hearing Ning De’s words. Boohoo… Why was their Guan Yue family so unlucky! They actually offended His Excellency Du Min and the future president of the Alchemist a.s.sociation. If other families knew that their Guan Yue family had offended the Alchemist a.s.sociation, which family would dare to be on good terms with them in the future! Wasn’t this the end of the world for their Guan Yue family?
“By the way, His Excellency Du Min is currently giving pointers to those alchemist grandmasters in our a.s.sociation! However, he was furious after knowing about this, so your Guan Yue family can only count on yourselves!” Ning De said helplessly, the expression on his face so helpless.
“President Ning, you can’t leave this matter alone! Can you help me plead with His Excellency Du Min? My Guan Yue family is willing to come personally to ask for forgiveness,” Guan Yue Long requested with a pale face, his att.i.tude very humble.
“Patriarch Guan Yue, don’t you understand what I’m saying? That young lady’s subordinate is Du Min’s beloved disciple, so the root of the problem isn’t His Excellency Du Min,” Ning De reminded. In fact, His Excellency Du Min had said that he would listen to the young lady when he came to the Guan Yue family.
“I understand. Guards, invite that young lady here.” Guan Yue Long hurriedly nodded and ordered.
“Yes!” The guard guarding outside the hall nodded and was about to leave to find someone when he was stopped by the patriarch.
“Wait, I’ll go personally.” Guan Yue Long had already stood up after speaking and turned to Ning De beside him. “President Ning, can I trouble you to accompany me?”
“Yes, but Patriarch Guan Yue, I have to let you know in advance. Don’t count on me to help you. I’m really helpless in this matter!” Ning De said with a troubled face.
“I know. I just need President Ning to accompany me.” Guan Yuelong said with a bitter smile. Alas! Why was the Guan Yue family so unlucky! They actually provoked someone from the Alchemist a.s.sociation.
“Then let’s go!” Ning De nodded.
“Take the young master away and lock him in the cell. No one is allowed to let him out without my orders. Otherwise, the family law will serve him!” Guan Yue Long ordered as he looked at the guards standing in the hall before leaving.
“Yes!” the guards hurriedly said, heaving a sigh of relief at the same time. It seemed like they were safe for the time being. Hu, none of them had expected Miss Leng’s ident.i.ty to be so n.o.ble.
“Young Master, please!” a guard said.
“Father, you can’t do this. How can you treat me like this for a woman!” Guan Yue Lai hurriedly shouted in fright when he heard that he was going to be locked in the cell. Obviously, he didn’t understand the importance of Leng Ruoxue’s status.
“What are you waiting for? Bring him there immediately!” Guan Yue Long roared at the guards with some annoyance.
“Yes!” the guards replied. At the same time, they couldn’t help but grumble in their hearts. Who would dare to bring the young master down without your permission? He was your son after all. They were also afraid that the patriarch would settle the score later!
Guan Yue Long turned his head to Ning De and said, “President Ning, let’s go!”
“Okay.” Ning De nodded and prepared to watch the show.
The two of them strode toward the side yard that the guard mentioned. They smelled a strange fragrance entering their mouths and noses when they were far away. This fragrance was really too lethal for Guan Yue Long, who had been hungry for two days!
“What’s that smell? How can it be so fragrant?” Ning De took a deep breath and couldn’t help asking. He looked at Guan Yue Long as if he was saying, ‘What good things did your Guan Yue family hide?’
“I don’t know either. Stop, where are you going in a panic?” Guan Yue Long said in puzzlement. Coincidentally, he saw another clansman pa.s.sing by them and stopped that person.
“Patriarch!” The person bowed very respectfully when he saw Guan Yue Long and Ning De. He might not know the person beside the patriarch, but those who could walk side by side with the patriarch were definitely not ordinary people.
“Where are you going?” Guan Yue Long asked in puzzlement.. Several more clansmen ran past them while asking this clansman. They even ignored him, the patriarch!
