âThereâs no need to prepare. We are victims. We just need to be of our nature,â Leng Ruoxue reminded.
âYes!â 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 Association, came uninvited after breakfastâ¦
In the Guan Yue familyâs 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 couldnât invite him casually. He didnât expect him to take the initiative to visit today, haha!
âPresident Ning, why are you here this time?â Guan Yue Long asked politely with a smile on his face.
âThereâs a small matter,â 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!
âHaha, President Ning, donât stand on ceremony. Just say it,â Guan Yue Long said very readily. Hehe, President Ning took the initiative to beg him. If they owed him a favor, their Guan Yue familyâs pills would not have to worry in the future. He thought happily in his heart.
âItâs like this. A guest from our Alchemist Association was snatched away by your Ninth Young Master, so Iâm here to ask for someone!â Ning De said with a faint smile, his expression unreadable.
âWhat? Thereâs such a thing?â Guan Yue Long was shocked and cold sweat couldnât help flowing down his back.
âCould it be that Patriarch Guan Yue thinks I will joke about this kind of thing?â Ning Deâs face became stern and said somewhat coldly.
âUh! President Ning, thatâs not what I mean. Itâs just that Laiâer was grounded by me yesterday. He shouldnât have the chance to go out and snatch the esteemed guest of the Alchemist Association, right?â Guan Yuelong hurriedly explained. He didnât want to ruin the friendship with the Alchemist Association because of something unnecessary. After all, the consequences would be very serious if his relationship with the Alchemist Association was bad. Moreover, their Guan Yue family didnât have an alchemist, so he needed to establish a good relationship with the Alchemist Association even more.
âWe snatched it the day before yesterday. Someone saw with their own eyes that our guildâs guest was snatched away by your Ninth Young Master,â Ning De said calmly.
âUh! Who saw it?â Guan Yue Long couldnât help asking.
âDo you think Iâll tell you who it is so that your Guan Yue family can silence me?â Ning De said very rudely, his expression becoming colder and colder.
âUh! How can that be? I just wanted to ask that person to confirm!â Guan Yue Long said a little embarrassed. Boohoo⦠In fact, he was thinking about how to push this matter away. He really didnât want to offend the Alchemist Association! He couldnât help cursing in his heart when he thought of this. Damn, what a worrisome thing. How could this have happened if Xiâer hadnât been at home for the past two days!
âPatriarch Guan Yue, thereâs no need to confirm. I believe that person wonât say that heâs panicking,â 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 didnât ask him to come today!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âOh, someone, bring Young Master Lai here,â 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.
âFather, youâre finally willing to let me out. Hehe, I knew you wouldnât bear to lock me up,â Guan Yue Lai said confidently, her greasy face full of pride.
âVile being, kneel down!â Guan Yue Long roared, a trace of imperceptible disgust flashing in his eyes.
âFather, why?â Guan Yue Lai asked in disbelief.
âKneel!â Guan Yue Long roared again and added a little pressure.
Plop! Guan Yue Laiâs knees softened and she couldnât help kneeling on the ground.
âFather!â Guan Yue Lai looked at his father, who had always loved him with aggrieved eyes, his face full of disbelief. Boohoo⦠He couldnât believe that his father would actually shout at him in front of outsiders. This made him very embarrassed. One had to know that he was the most favored Ninth Young Master of the Guan Yue family!
âLet me ask you, did you snatch someone again the day before yesterday?â Guan Yue Long ignored Guan Yue Laiâs pitiful appearance and asked bluntly.
âNo!â 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.
âYou still dare to deny it? How can it be fake if someone saw it with their own eyes!â Guan Yue Long glared and roared very angrily.
âFather, I really didnât! Who saw it? Let him out.â 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.
âPatriarch Guan Yue, since the Ninth Young Master refuses to admit it, why donât we call the guards beside him and ask him?â Ning De suggested with a spurious smile.
âOkay. Guards, bring those guards here!â 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 Association came knocking on his door to ask for them. He felt that he really had no face left.
âYes.â The guard outside the door immediately left the living room after hearing the patriarchâs order.
After a while, the guards were all brought to the living room.
âGreetings, Patriarch.â The guards bowed respectfully. However, their faces turned pale in fright when they looked up and saw the person sitting beside the patriarch. Boohoo⦠Wasnât 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.
âDid the Ninth Young Master snatch someone again the day before yesterday?â Guan Yue Long didnât beat around the bush and questioned directly.
âYes⦠Yes..â The guards looked at each other, nodded in unison, and said honestly.
