Chapter: 255

By 9:30 pm, the car had arrived at the entrance to Xiao's ancestral home.

The family walked into the main hall, and Lei Chen glanced around before his brow furrowed slightly.

All he saw was Xiao Lao Tai Tai sitting in the central chair, with Xiao Changgao standing beside her, while Xiao Hai Long, brother and sister, stood on the other side.

Aside from them, there were several elder relatives and family members of the Xiao clan seated on both sides of the hall, as well as a few younger siblings standing at the periphery, looking around vigilantly.

It was just some trivial matter about the old manor house that had suddenly turned into an atmosphere like a three-judge court?

Xiao Changkun's name fit him perfectly; he was always quite straightforward and wouldn't be swindled by anyone.

Lei Chen looked at this situation and felt his head shrink by half, tremblingly calling out "Mom" then giggling and calling out "Big Brother".

Xiao Changgao seemed not to hear and didn't even look up.

Xiao Lao Tai Tai nodded slightly.

Xiao Changkun cautiously asked, "Mom, you're looking for me today. Is there something?"

"What do you mean by 'the villa of the first soup'? " Xiao Lao Tai Tai asked in a cold tone.

Xiao Changkun quickly said, "That villa is what Wang Zong gave to Ye Chen, and Ye Chen previously helped him with feng shui."

"Feng Shui?" Xiao Hai Long sneered, speaking in an eerie tone: "If you're looking at feng shui, you can see a grand mansion. We Xiao family would all stop working and become fortune tellers!"

The living room was filled with low laughter.

Listening to the relatives' ridicule, Xiao Changkun felt embarrassed and could only smile awkwardly.

It was actually Xiao Changgan who laughed twice and smoothly defused the situation: "Mom, no matter what Leaf Chen does, Wang's explanation has cleared up the truth. This thing is settled, and my second brother won't need to explain anymore."

Xiao Changkun looked at his big brother with gratitude, feeling a bit surprised.

In general, Big Brother never bothered with him, but today he was helping him out, which was truly unprecedented!

Xiao Changgan smiled slightly and turned around to tell Xiao Lao Tai Tai: "Mom, you don't need to ask any more questions about the villa. King Wang himself said it's a gift for Leaf Chen, so we have nothing to worry about."

"Yes." Xiao Lao Tai Tai nodded and told Xiao Changkun: "Changkun, your big brother wants to merge with the Dong family and have Hai Long marry Dong Ruolin. What do you think about this?"

"This is good news." Xiao Changkun said with a smile: "The Dong family has a reputation in the capital, and if we can form an alliance with them, it will be a great help to our Xiao family."

"It's good news indeed," Xiao Lao Tai Tai sighed heavily: "But compared to the Dong family, our house is really far behind. Even if your big brother wants this, he doesn't have the face to propose it to the Dong family."

Xiao Changkun nodded seriously and said honestly: "Mom, let's just talk about my heart. I think Dong Ruolin should look down on Shanghai Hai Long."

Xiao Hai Long looked extremely unpleasant and blurted out: "Second Uncle, what do you mean by that?"

"It's just that I realized I said something wrong, I quickly changed my words and said: 'Oh, what I mean is, compared to the Dong family, we Xiao family are indeed far behind.'" JrNovels.com
