Small footsteps ran through the residence, through the servants and other questioning members of the residence. They had never seen the little boy before, which family had such an active child when everyone was grieving after coming out of the hall?
They did not want to bother and chose to ignore it. Until finally the small step was stopped when hit someone until both of them backtracked.
"Idiot, are you blind?" The Xie Jianying who was hit was instantly enraged. He had been furious from the start, seeing members of his own family arrested and about to be executed. After the tragedy, he even saw Xie Ran so calm along with the handsome man who had just appeared. He's very angry!
Now that someone is looking for trouble on him, he will make the little boy vent his anger!
The little boy who was none other than Xiao Caihong blinked his eyes, looking at Xie Jianying in a daze. He was playing and was about to go see his mother, but this evil woman suddenly blocked him and glared at him as if she was going to scare him. Xiao Caihong did not like this evil woman.
"Little boy, are you really as blind as that woman? I'm telling you, if it's still disturbing and ruining the view, I won't hesitate to skin you!" Xie Jianying did not care whose child this was, she was very angry and no one should bother her.
Xiao Caihong still looked confused. This evil woman could be eaten by him, but the unpleasant look made him lose his taste. It is better to eat the food his mother gave him than to eat this wicked woman.
"What look! Crying out? Complain? Do it! Who will support you when that demon will execute everyone! In time, it's your turn to be executed!" Xie Jianying screeched until her saliva spurted making Xiao Caihong disgusted.
Although Xiao Caihong was a beast, he was a being that Xie Ran had been with ever since he was born. Xie Ran and Qu Xuanzi were always clean, never as slovenly as that evil woman. Xiao Caihong was getting dislikeful.
In the end, when Xie Jianying quickly left with dusty emotions, Xiao Caihong's small legs were extended unnoticed to the point of making Xie Jianying fall to the ground and soiling her face.
Xie Jianying was stunned, everyone was also speechless at the sliced and funny scene. A few seconds after, a shout echoed from Xie Jianying's mouth roused everyone from shock.
They almost laughed, but immediately held him back. Who does not know Xie Jianying? If thought of, Xie Jianying could be even more ruthless than Xie Ran year after year. He escaped from the trial this time was already a fortune.
But not with Xiao Caihong who was already giggling like watching a comedy. It just so happened that he was able to see the evil woman full of dirt on her face. That was so entertaining!
"You!" Xie Jianying immediately woke up ignoring her dirty appearance of going wet ground. He approached Xiao Caihong and pulled his ears violently.
"Didn't your parents teach you to respect older people? Basic don't know the rules, useless trash like you is just a family scourge!"
Xiao Caihong was irritated that his ears were being pulled. His mother though fierce never so rough as to pull her small ears up to like a rabbit. He was irritated, pulled Xie Jianying's hand and then bit her hand hard until it bled.
Xie Jianying shouted in a so-called manner. Since when is a child's bite so strong and deep? He felt very sick as if he had been bitten by a wild animal!
"Take me off! Release!" Xie Jianying flicked her hand trying to escape from Xiao Caihong's powerful bite. Blood had dripped from his hands, whereas Xie Jianying's eyes had already let out tears due to the unbearable pain in her hands. Why must the day be shit like this?
The commotion that Xie Jianying created caused all attention to be on him. Even Yan Yao and the others walked out of the hall to see what kind of commotion was so stirring whereas Xie Ran and Qu Xuanzi came out last.
When he saw Xiao Caihong endlessly biting Xie Jianying's hand, Xie Ran sighed. Since when did Xiao Caihong play alone without the three dragons and saint beasts?
Yan Yao and the others immediately glanced at Xie Ran. They knew that Xiao Caihong was a seven-colored phyton as well as Xie Ran's adopted son who was found in the back mountain. Seeing the famous seven-colored poisonous phyton biting someone, they could only say goodbye to Xie Jianying.
Sensing a familiar existence, Xiao Caihong took off a bite and turned his head back, seeing Xie Ran and Qu Xuanzi were. His eyes glazed over, immediately running around hugging Xie Ran's legs like a child who had been bullied.
"Mother, Cai Hong's ear is pulled, huhu~ pain"
Everyone is surprised. Even though Xiao Caihong's voice was not loud and sounding sad, they still heard it clearly. The little boy .. is the son of their chairman! Since when?
Xie Ran remained with a flat look, looking at Xie Jianying who was sitting crying out in pain for her hand that formed a bite mark as well as blood that would not stop. Xie Ran looked at Xiao Caihong who was complaining, then said, "Bad."
Xiao Caihong was startled, feeling scolded and crying in silence while looking down. Because of that evil woman, her mother scolded her. He glanced at Qu Xuanzi, pleading for help. But there's no response.
Xie Ran left from there with wide strides, as if no matter what commotion Xiao Caihong caused. Xiao Caihong automatically followed while tugging at Qu Xuanzi's clothes that were behind Xie Ran like bodyguards.
Arriving in front of the room, Xie Ran turned to see Xiao Caihong hiding behind Qu Xuanzi, peeking timidly.
Xie Ran frowned. "What's wrong with you?"
Xiao Caihong immediately hid, no longer peeking. What's the point of following if you can only hide? Xie Ran looked at Qu Xuanzi for an answer as to why Xiao Caihong was like that.
Qu Xuanzi chuckled. "He misunderstood you for what you said."
"Misunderstand me?" He only said one word and the little boy had misunderstood? He glanced at Xiao Caihong who was peeking again, then sighed. "Get out."
Xiao Caihong looked up to see Qu Xuanzi who was also staring at him. Qu Xuanzi gestured for the eyes to come out of hiding, Xiao Caihong was stunned. Then hesitantly nodded slightly and came out of hiding.
"Why?" Xie Ran directly asked before Xiao Caihong was ready to make the little boy startle and cling again to Qu Xuanzi.
Xiao Caihong hesitantly replied, "Mother ... is angry."
Xie Ran's flat face changed, then he again thought that he was a bit rude just now. It seemed that his attitude towards his subordinates was still carried away until it made Xiao Caihong frightened.
"I didn't mean to." Xie Ran tried to calm Xiao Caihong down. He is not good at entertaining, but can only try to convince someone despite his doubts.
"Mother said Caihong was naughty and did not scold the evil woman." Xiao Caihong had already started to calm down and dared to look at Xie Ran directly.
"It's just .. a diversion. I think you understand." Xie Ran did not mean to scold. His mood was good, why get angry at someone? He said that because Xiao Caihong carelessly revealed himself in public and acted mischievously. It was just a word, was it so great of an effect?
But Xie Ran immediately realized, that his tone of speech and expression were still very cold making anyone think that he was very angry. It was just a momentary mistake.
"The wicked woman mocked Mother's Father, Caihong did not like. Said Caihong was a scourge, so Caihong bit him." Xiao Caihong explained in a sad tone.
"Isn't nice? You bite him, it's the same as killing him. I didn't have to punish, so I left. That's it." Xie Ran also straightened out the misunderstanding. It could be bad if Xiao Caihong continued to misunderstand and cry all day making his ears break.
Xiao Caihong nodded in understanding. His expression instantly turned cheerful again and jumped clinging onto Xie Ran. As if changing an expression was as easy as turning a palm, there was not even a second after Xie Ran explained.
"Mother, lapar~"
As usual, the legendary word came out making Xie Ran not know what to say. He took out a porcelain bottle from his spatial ring and gave it to Xiao Caihong.
"It's your food, go." Xie Ran instantly chased away as if driving away the cat while continuing to herd Xiao Caihong out of the courtyard where he lived.
Xiao Caihong was not sad, he was actually happy to get a good meal and waved at Xie Ran before finally going to look for the three dumb dragons.
Xie Ran sighed. Fortunately, he had already made Xiao Caihong's food stock in as many porcelain bottles as possible. The larger, the greater the appetite Xiao Caihong had, so he had to make more stock for each day one bottle. It was also to cultivate Xiao Caihong to make it bigger faster and not to trouble him.
"I told you, you're a good mother." Qu Xuanzi suddenly hugged her, as if it would feel very hollow if not hugging Xie Ran.
Xie Ran glanced at him intensely. "You're still here?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"I'm driving away." Xie Ran confirmed the words and became flat again. He just wanted to rest for a while, what's wrong?
"You can't kick me out." Qu Xuanzi replied casually.
Xie Ran pushed Qu Xuanzi to let go, then turned his face away as he crossed his chest. "I still have business, don't follow!"
He left, not to rest. Ever since Xie Ran admitted that he remembered little about Qu Xuanzi in his former world, Qu Xuanzi had become very attached to him. Xie Ran was astonished, actually what happened in the past?
Time passed by so quickly, while the moon replaced the lighting of the sky accompanied by the twinkling stars.
It was already midnight, everyone was asleep in their respective rooms and putting out the lights. The Xie Clan was without light at the moment, so silent and desolate.
Xie Ran opened his eyes, unable to sleep feeling his stomach churn for food. He had forced himself to sleep until curled up to hold his hunger, but in the end could not help it so had to rush down from the bed.
But before that, he had to break free from the burly arms that encircled his waist all night. Seeing Qu Xuanzi close her eyes beside her, Xie Ran smiled silently looking at that gapless handsome face. He was annoyed when Qu Xuanzi brought him to sleep because Xie Ran was almost overtime again. It had been two days that Xie Ran had not slept at night, it was only natural that Qu Xuanzi this time forced him to.
"In the end you are fast asleep," muttered Xie Ran, taking a position facing Qu Xuanzi.
If it was like this, Qu Xuanzi did not look like a domineering emperor at all times. If only he hadn't continued to be an iceberg and been as kind as he was now, maybe Xie Ran couldn't have been angry at him at all.
"Sorry, a few days ignored you." Then Xie Ran's look turned irritated. "Who told you to be so selfish? If you can be selfish, I can also be more selfish. Never mind, whoever you are is not important anymore. Sean or Qu Xuanzi, right now all I know is Qu Xuanzi. You love me, I love you enough. Right?"
Crew
Xie Ran clucked bitterly at his stomach which even interrupted his words. He does speak for himself, after which no one needs to answer.
"Because the worms in the stomach can't wait to go to the kitchen, don't be surprised to see me disappear." Xie Ran chuckled.
Slowly he took off Qu Xuanzi's embrace without building it up. Very slowly and without sound. Because he knew, Qu Xuanzi was sensitive, even more so to spiritual energy that he had to break away slowly without sound or without spiritual movement.
After successfully getting off the bed, Xie Ran stepped quietly out of the room. He was panicked when the door he opened made a scream, quickly slipped out and left after closing the door.
There was no one in the main residence, there was only the wind singing. He walked silently, with silent steps and turned towards the kitchen to hunt for food. In fact, sneaking into the kitchen was a daily routine during the time in the Xie Clan.
Since Xie Ran should not eat very much overtly and should create a different reputation, he could only enjoy food at night on the grounds of working overtime.
Unbeknownst to him, Qu Xuanzi inside there opened his eyes. He woke up, but did not come out of the room just went towards the window. Suddenly he felt some uninvited guests coming.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
In the middle of the silent and dark night, several black figures darted out like ghosts entering the clan residence without leaving a trace like a passing shadow.
Their soundless footsteps seemed to float through the air, quietly sneaking around the main residence and hiding from the guards who stood firm like statues.
"Eat this, Miss says she can hide our aura and presence for two hours. Our target should not be underestimated, we should be superior and should not let it move."
"Good."
They took a pill that their leader gave them. There were six men dressed as ninjas, with weapons hoisted around the waist. They looked like an expert, sneaking around and walking around unbeknownst to the guards.
Until finally arrived at the door of someone's room. They slightly opened the door to peek to make sure the target was actually inside, but suddenly a voice sounded behind them.
"I guess who, it turns out some guests are coming without knocking on the door. Do you guys know? That's very disrespectful."
