Xie Ran had just returned to the Tang Residence when Tang Yueying suddenly appeared with a sweet smile and clasped her hands familiarly as if they were really close and growing together in one roof.
Xie Ran did not think much, thinking Tang Yueying's attitude was indeed strange from the start and he had never placed it in the eyes. Tang Yueying said that she would take Xie Ran for a walk all afternoon, even pulling him without waiting for Xie Ran's aim.
Seeing this kind of person, the dragon consciousness inside there could not help but thrash around saying that the evil woman had another intention of taking her out of the residence. But Xie Ran did not care, only following Tang Yueying's wishes as the obedient girl.
If Tang Yueying wanted to do something to him, it shouldn't be now let alone outside the residence.
They arrived in front of the Tang Family military base at the border of Dongzhou City. There was only a barren land, while hundreds of meters in the north was a region covered by towering trees and majestic mountains accompanied by snow regions that froze the top of the mountains.
They entered a secret military camp that stood firm with not too large buildings exposed.
Tang Yueying pulled Xie Ran's arm inside. Seeing the thousands of troops practicing, using spears and with a resounding dashing voice, one would feel amazed at the spirit of the iron-blooded warrior that was full of vitality.
The twang for the sake of twang continues to echo. While thousands of soldiers trained in co-ordination, some dueled over one-on-one arenas with spectators limited to servants. There's nothing relaxing here, everyone is working without a chance to laze around.
Tang Yueying's move did not stop until right in front of a tall man who was watching how the troops were developing. The cold gaze of the dashing man was moved to feel the presence of someone familiar. Looking at Tang Yueying who had a bright smile, she remained as cold as ever making Tang Yueying's smile freeze and turn into a forced smile.
"Uncle Wei, Ying'er has a cousin from afar to come look around. Ran'er's sister is so foreign to all this, Uncle Wei might be able to give some enlightenment." Tang Yueying remained polite despite not having a good impression on her uncle.
He and Tang Wei rarely met, or it could be said that they barely knew each other. Perhaps if Tang Wei and Tang Yueying were both not famous and were once one house, they would absolutely never know each other's lives.
Tang Wei glanced at the girl behind Tang Yueying, she had been quiet for a while seeing a beauty that could not even side by side beside Tang Yueying who was considered the prettiest woman in Border Town. The teenage girl was undeniably, much more beautiful and innocent looking than Tang Yueying and Tang Yueha in various ways.
But that view did not last long. He immediately turned his gaze again indifferently to look at the soldier who was training. Just looking at it, he already knew that the girl was no ordinary person. Her face that was similar to the person she knew made her certain that the girl was none other than Xie Ran who was recently mentioned as the Head of the Tang Family.
Looking at Tang Wei who did not care about her words, Tang Yueying became displeased and tried to maintain the best smile. Until finally his gaze saw the figure of a beautiful woman who was leaning full of passionate and seductive aura. Tang Yueying's eyes grew brighter looking at him.
Xie Ran did not pay any attention at all, he was busy himself looking at the soldiers who were training, just like Tang Wei. Even to the point of ignoring Tang Yueying who had turned to the beautiful woman on the other side to exchange a few words.
When he saw the soldiers practicing, then saw the cold and resolute-looking Tang Wei accompanied by clenched jaws, he quietly pulled the corner of his lips unnoticed.
I don't know what's on his mind.
"Xie Ran's sister." Tang Yueying patted Xie Ran on the shoulder. It was at that moment that Xie Ran slipped out of his mind and turned to look at him wondering.
"What?"
"Ying'er wants to acquaint you with someone," he said then brought Xie Ran before the beautiful woman who was filled with a dense aura of oppression. The woman looked at him with a brilliant smile. Then Tang Yueying continued, "Miss Mo, Mo Shenxi. Miss Mo is our benefactor, she is the one who handles military matters and lives here, with Uncle Wei. Ran'er's sister doesn't have to hesitate if she wants to ask him. Despite standing in the middle of the military base and having dominating power, Miss Mo was very friendly and pleasant. You'll love it."
"Ying'er is so good at talking, I just like what I like. Regarding the dominating power, how could it compare to Lord Wei?" Mo Shenxi glanced at Tang Wei who was also looking at him subconsciously. The woman blinked one eye flirtatiously before being ignored.
Xie Ran did not have any impression towards the people here. Neither Tang Wei nor Mo Shenxi, he did not care. However, he was able to sense that Mo Shenxi was not an ordinary person, but rather a demon. His aura was extremely concentrated, strong enough to be below Huai Mao. Xie Ran had to admit it, regardless of what Mo Shenxi's motive was and his role here.
However it was different from Mo Shenxi. From the moment he saw how visually insane Xie Ran was that even surpassing her, Mo Shenxi had already marked her with sinister intent that she wanted to tear that face apart which made her beauty useless. No one can be more beautiful than her!
"You are Xie Ran, this woman has long heard of you. Being able to break through an advanced professional in his teens, is admirable." Mo Shenxi used a complimentary impression to give 'good impression' on little cousin Tang Yueying. Although reluctant and feeling his heart bleed, he had to do it.
"Miss Mo was overly complimentary, it wasn't something to be proud of. After all, I still lost to Big Brother Cousin who broke through earlier." Xie Ran glanced at Tang Yueying with an innocent smile. As if unaware behind Tang Yueying's smile that became bitter and wanted to strangle her for having been insinuating a lot.
She did not know that Tang Yueying had lost much!
Tang Yueying chuckled over the enslaving resentment, then looked at Mo Shenxi who was smiling mockingly. He grew even more upset then looked at Xie Ran, hoping to strangle him right now.
Tang Yueying said softly, "Of course Ran'er's sister is different, it should be Ying'er who envies Brother. But, we came here not to envy and jealousy each other, but to open the mood."
"I know." Xie Ran did not respond much, his smile was finished right then and slowly dissipated when he saw the warrior training.
Actually, Xie Ran had never been interested in such military training, but this time he had taken some interest. Ignoring how uncomfortable the aura behind him was, where the two demons looked at him with an ominous look, he instead felt comforted and smiled in silence.
Tang Yueying had been talking a lot all along and Xie Ran was just listening. Mo Shenxi had always drawn Tang Yueying into contact with Xie Ran, but Xie Ran was too far away to talk at length that ended up in an awkward and hot situation. Until finally Tang Wei came up with some business with Mo Shenxi, only then did Tang Yueying stop.
Today was quite heavy for Xie Ran whose ears continued to receive Tang Yueying's relentless babbling. Although he always looked calm at all times, deep inside he was extremely saturated and was eager to see the results of Tang Yueying's long-awaited work.
Tang Yueying stalled into the campground that Xie Ran obviously shouldn't have visited. If the girl was smart, she would not have brought Xie Ran there for no reason let alone tried to get along with her.
Until Xie Ran finally arrived in front of the room, he felt so tired that he wanted to sleep. But as he was about to open the door and clean himself in the soothing warm water, a hand stopped him and gave a tread attack that caused Xie Ran to step back a few steps.
Tang Yueha was present with a hostile look. All this time he seemed to be silent and doing nothing, but this time it was different from before. Xie Ran started to wonder.
"Xie Ran, I suggest you don't make trouble for the Tang Family. Based on your personality, it wouldn't be easy to take Tang Yueying's persuasion for granted without ulterior motives. What exactly are you planning?" Tang Yueha looked at him sharply full of hostility. The tone was cold and not high, but full of threats.
Xie Ran did not answer anything Tang Yueha said. He looked at her carefully, trying to find something wrong.
Not getting an answer from Xie Ran, Tang Yueha just got more and more annoyed and pulled him a bit rudely into the courtyard. He was not afraid of Xie Ran attacking him, because here was the Tang Family Residence. Xie Ran would not be careless with his strength if he were not stupid.
Tang Yueha spoke with a calm and cold look. "I don't accept you here, you should know that. You hurt Xie Chen, intend to kill me, and fight Auntie in Ye City. You think I'm stupid to let a parasite like you go? If you want to return, the Xie Clan is the most appropriate place, not the Tang Family."
Xie Ran did not know why Tang Yueha had become so aggressive in expelling him. Did Tang Yueha know of her intentions? But so far he hasn't done anything suspicious, not much movement. So, there was no way Tang Yueha was suspicious until she chased him away like that.
Although their impression was not good either, Tang Yueha was always calm and did not like to interfere with other people's problems. He even almost thought that Tang Yueha was too individualistic and did not care about the Tang Family, but rather only cared about her position in the Xie Clan.
So, what causes it to become agrasive?
Amidst the commotion, Cheng Hua came. He was surprised that Tang Yueha suddenly attacked Xie Ran and directly mediated them. His eyes glared sharply at Tang Yueha.
"Is this how we educate you? Xie Ran is an important guest of the Xie Clan, you shouldn't be being brash. You should have calmed your parents in the sky, instead of smearing them for your immoral actions. Expelling a guest is not a moral act, you should know that. If you forget, quickly go to the ancestral tomb to kneel down!"
Tang Yueha was speechless about the sentence that Cheng Hua had uttered. Carrying the name of her parents, Tang Yueha grew furious and almost cursed the woman with an expletive. However he could only hold back and press his palms until his nails were whitened.
"Auntie, I only told Xie Ran to return to the Xie Clan as soon as possible. Aunt Tang missed her, but she was ungrateful and instead went far to distance the family she should care about." Tang Yueha kept stressing her words, continuing to urge Xie Ran to leave.
"Xie Ran was here brought by Yueying. Everything about Xie Ran, is accounted for by Yueying and you have no right to it. As long as you don't reveal his whereabouts, that's more than enough to help."
"Why are you protecting her?" Tang Yueha looked at him in disbelief.
"After all, Xie Ran had the same blood as Xie Chen and Xie Nu. Despite not having the bloodline of the Tang Family, he was still a member of the family. You won't understand." Cheng Hua was silent for a moment to look at Tang Yueha meticulously from top to bottom. "I think it's time for you to understand what family is. The day after tomorrow, I want you to prepare to meet with Minister Fu's family."
Tang Yueha was completely speechless, her gaze blank. Unexpectedly, before Tang Yueying, it was the one who was kicked out of this family to 'sell' on the rich from the Capital City. Previously he was given to Emperor Zhong, but all of that failed and he was forced to go to the minister's family. It's too ....
Cheng Hua ignored how shocked Tang Yueha was, taking it as punishment. He turned to look at Xie Ran with a raised smile until his eyes narrowed. "You can stay fine. If someone's bothering you, call Auntie to punish her."
"Thank you." Xie Ran smiled faintly.
Cheng Hua rubbed Xie Ran's shoulder gently. "Go back for a break, you must be tired all day walking outside."
Xie Ran did not reply, only nodding as Cheng Hua passed and moved away. Looking at Tang Yueha who was just silently staring at him, Xie Ran did not have many sentences to say. He immediately went into the room.
Actually, he was not offended by Tang Yueha's words. He actually got something that made the corners of his lips lift up once again.
All this .. is getting interesting.
After entering and closing the door, he could smell a strange scent that spread evenly throughout his room. Other people would not be aware, but Xie Ran who had sharp senses was always conscious and sensitive.
The door opens, lighting a small room that can only accommodate one body in one door. On top of it, there appeared a small red flower that bloomed beautifully, giving off an almost invisible white mist as if it had been charred for a long time.
The fragrant aroma was so sharp, even the not strong Xie Ran would almost sneeze so sharp it was. He grabbed the flower tucked between the clothes, looking at it carefully before a smile was etched on his lips.
"The misty flower, does match its name," muttered Xie Ran flipping through the flower that was known to be extremely poisonous. However, it did not seem to affect him at all.
Misty flowers are the most avoided poisonous flowers. Can kill a group of people on a particular radar in a short period of time. Since there are several herbs grown in the flower, the effect changes. It was no longer able to kill a person instantly, but rather poison him little by little until it was weak. If you touch it, someone will be very weak powerless before finally paralyzed and die.
Tang Yueying knew that Xie Ran would find a misty flower and pick it up, hoping that Xie Ran could be poisoned and become useless trash. Tang Yueying had previously drank the poison antidote before holding it, then brought it to Xie Ran's room.
Previously Mei Liena had identified the misty flower when she found the list of medicine that the veiled woman dropped which was none other than Tang Yueying so Xie Ran was given the antidote first before returning to the residence.
If not for medicine, then for poison. There is no point in making drugs that disguise the state of the body at a time like this. Then, there was no way that Tang Yueying would personally buy ordinary medicine, not her servant alone would buy. That's not Cheng Hua style.
The combination of mother and child was very visible in Xie Ran's eyes. A drug with a positive effect, put on a misty flower that can make a group of people die just from touching it. These children's games really bore Xie Ran.
But Xie Ran had found many interesting things today, he would naturally take advantage of them. Coupled with the misty flower gift personally handed over from Tang Yueying, the plan went so smoothly and precisely.
This plot, it'll be very impressive.
