Chapter 541: Eat Your Food
Su Cha pushed him towards the front yard. When the female butler saw them, she had a subtle expression and said with a bow, “Young Master, Little Miss, it’s time for dinner.”
There was a subtle change in how she addressed Su Cha.
Zong Yanxiu smiled and raised his hand to ask Su Cha to push him inside.
He had said that his legs were not crippled, but he had been lying down for too many years. His muscles had deteriorated, and he could not walk on his own for the time being. He had to continue with his rehabilitation.
When Su Cha pa.s.sed by her, the butler’s eyes flickered and she bowed slightly. “Little Miss, my att.i.tude was wrong just now. Please forgive me.”
As the head of the family’s household, how would she not know about the young master and Su Cha’s ident.i.ty? One could imagine the resentment in their hearts.
Su Cha smiled. “It’s fine.”
She really did not care.
In her eyes, the Zong family was the only one with special privileges.
Her calm voice made the butler glance at her in surprise.
Zong Yanxiu nodded and smiled at Su Cha.
He was very satisfied with Su Cha. He had the pride of a father.
After entering the main room, the two men looked over.
When Bo Muyi saw Su Cha and Zong Yanxiu, he smiled and walked over to hold Su Cha’s hand. “Have you finished your heart-to-heart talk?”
His words were ambiguous.
Su Cha chuckled. Was he jealous?
Zong Bingyi’s expression was not as ugly as before. He just looked at Su Cha but was not enthusiastic at all. After all, Su Cha was Ruan Yin’s daughter. This was a sore spot.
But he did not say anything. He waved his hand slightly and gestured for them to sit down.
The Zong family’s dinner was very simple. As Zong Yanxiu was a special patient, his food was different from theirs. The Zong family’s food was lighter, and they did not mention Zuo Shaoxin’s matter at the dining table. Probably afraid that Zong Yanxiu would say something, Zong Bingyi mentioned something else to Bo Muyi.
“The specific time of the Martial Alliance Meeting has been released. It will be at the beginning of next month. I heard that the new Alliance Master of the Star Alliance has already taken over. Of course, the Martial Alliance cannot delay it any longer. This time, the Zuo family has targeted the position of Alliance Master of the Martial Alliance. We must not let them have this opportunity!”
When Zong Bingyi and the rest mentioned this matter, Su Cha raised her eyebrows and listened carefully.
Zong Yanxiu pretended that he did not know anything and happily picked up food for her.
Bo Muyi glanced at Su Cha and moved his cutlery elegantly. He was not in the habit of eating with others outside, so he ate often alone.
He said slowly, “The Zuo family is aiming at the Martial Alliance because they are confident. The Wudang is powerful now, and the Tang Sect is not to be outdone. In the end, it will depend on which of the big families can compete for that position.”
Zong Bingyi picked up some food with his chopsticks and frowned. “Actually, if we can rope in the new Alliance Master of the Star Alliance, it would be a good thing for us. However, the new Alliance Master is unpredictable. Until now, s.h.i.+ Wei is still not willing to tell us who he is. Their Vice Alliance Master is also elusive. I can understand. The previous Alliance Master who was about to succeed died mysteriously. He must protect this one well.”
Bo Muyi glanced at Su Cha again.
Su Cha clenched her chopsticks and almost burst out laughing.
Muyi, can you stop looking at me and just eat your food?
