“You don’t have to underestimate yourself. I know how to respect my elders,” Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile.
“Hehe, we haven’t seen each other for some time, but Miss Leng is still so energetic,” Wu Ming said with a smile and tried to smooth things over. Well, he couldn’t let Leng Ruoxue anger the Second Elder. Otherwise, the Second Elder would kill this beauty in a fit of anger, and then his plan would all be in vain!
“Have we met before? Why don’t I remember?” Leng Ruoxue said with a face full of question marks. Hmph! She really couldn’t tell that this Wu Ming was still acting familiar. However, she didn’t intend to give this Patriarch Wu a good att.i.tude.
“Miss Leng really likes to joke. We met once at the flower appreciation festival. Moreover, my daughter seems to be a little unhappy with Miss Leng,” Wu Ming said without anger. Leng Ruoxue didn’t give him a good face, but he just happened to like Leng Ruoxue like this. Hehe! Beauty wouldn’t be attractive if she didn’t have a little personality!
“Wu Qian’er? So you’re her father!” Leng Ruoxue said in realization, as if she had just found out.
“Yes.” Wu Ming nodded.
Leng Ruoxue raised her beautiful eyes and sized up Wu Ming. Wu Ming was about 40 years old. His facial features were not very handsome, but he was tall and his strength was pa.s.sable. He was a Mystic Sovereign, but she really didn’t like Wu Ming’s gaze as if he was looking at prey.
“Miss Leng, are you satisfied with me?” Wu Ming felt Leng Ruoxue’s gaze and teased.
“Not very satisfied. You’re too old and ugly. Did you really give birth to Wu Qian’er?” Leng Ruoxue said honestly and asked doubtfully.
“Pfft! Haha!” Feng Da and the others ignored Wu Ming’s livid face and laughed hysterically just as Leng Ruoxue finished speaking!
“Miss Leng is really honest.” Wu Ming suppressed his anger and said through gritted teeth.
“Yes, yes. Of course. Only honest children have candy to eat!” Leng Ruoxue said with a smile.
“Patriarch, do you know this young lady?” The First Elder, who had been looking at them coldly, spoke again.
“Yes, we met once in Moon Gazing City,” Wu Ming explained.
“Miss Leng, right? You’re a guest. May I know why Miss Leng wants to blow up the other courtyards of our Wu family?” First Elder said expressionlessly, but his words were full of blame.
“Who is this old man? What evidence do you have that I blew it up? Go and ask the guards at the door. Have we ever left Peony Garden?” Leng Ruoxue said calmly, neither angry nor angry.
“I am the Wu family’s First Elder. Guards.” The First Elder introduced himself and then shouted out of the yard.
“What instructions does the First Elder have?” A guard walked in quickly.
“Have you been guarding Peony Garden?” First Elder questioned.
“Yes,” the guard said quickly.
“Did you leave?” First Elder asked again.
“I have never left,” the guard said.
“First Elder, did you hear that? There’s always someone guarding the door. Would they not know if we leave? Therefore, don’t think that we’re wronged just because we’re new here! We’re guests,” Leng Ruoxue said aggrievedly.
Feng Da and the others were impressed when they heard Leng Ruoxue’s words. Hehe, as expected of the young miss! Her ability to lie through her teeth was better than ordinary people! At this moment, they were thinking that they didn’t have to leave at all if they wanted to do something. Moreover, those guards wouldn’t notice even if they left!
“Uh!” Cold sweat broke out on the First Elder’s forehead. He didn’t know what to do. They were obviously the most suspicious person, but he had evidence of their alibi, and the person proving was actually one of their own. Alas! He was a little stuck in the middle now!
“Haha, Miss Leng, don’t take it to heart. First Elder was just joking with you.” Wu Ming smiled and gave First Elder a way out.
“Yes! The Wu family was attacked, so I have to be careful. Please don’t blame me, Miss Leng,” First Elder said adaptably and took his exit.
“It’s right to be careful. I won’t blame First Elder,” Leng Ruoxue said very generously.
“Miss Leng, why didn’t anyone inform me that you came to the Wu family?” Wu Ming suddenly asked. What he implied was, where did the people I sent go? Why didn’t they return with you?
“Didn’t Second Butler inform you? Your Wu family’s efficiency is really too poor.” Leng Ruoxue pouted her pink lips slightly with dissatisfaction.
“Didn’t I send someone to invite Miss Leng a few days ago? Why didn’t they come back with Miss Leng and the others?” Wu Ming had no choice but to make things clear seeing Leng Ruoxue pretending to be stupid.
“I don’t know! I don’t see anyone?” Leng Ruoxue’s beautiful face was very sincere.
“Uh! How is this possible?” Wu Ming said with a face full of disbelief. He had sent more than 50 people? He might believe it if they said they didn’t see him if they only sent one person. However, they didn’t see so many people. Who were they kidding!
“I really didn’t see it. Did you see them?” Leng Ruoxue turned to Feng Da and the others.
“No,” Feng Da and the others answered in unison.
“Patriarch Wu, look, I’m not the only one who didn’t see anyone. My subordinates didn’t see anyone either,” Leng Ruoxue said incomparably innocently, the word ‘wronged’ clearly written on her beautiful little face.
“Patriarch Wu! I’m only Miss’s subordinate. I shouldn’t say this, but I still have to say. Did the people you sent fool around somewhere?” Leng Fengda asked with a face full of curiosity.
“That’s impossible!” Wu Ming hurriedly denied. The people he sent were all the elites of the family. How could they ignore his orders and go out to fool around!
“One can never be too careful!” Feng Da Liang said with a whoosh, but he was already laughing in his heart.
“Uh! Miss Leng, why did you come to Martial Immortal City since you didn’t see the people I sent?” Wu Ming asked doubtfully. Obviously, he didn’t completely believe Leng Ruoxue and the others.
“We were pa.s.sing by this place. We were going to enter the city, but the quality of your Martial Immortal City’s city walls was too poor. It actually collapsed before we entered the city. The Second Butler suspected that we were the culprits, so he brought us to the City Lord’s Mansion.. Alas! You have a loyal good subordinate!” Leng Ruoxue looked at Wu Ming with envy after explaining.
