Chapter 614 - The Unlucky Patriarch of the Wu Family (3)
Chapter 614: The Unlucky Patriarch of the Wu Family (3)
“Of course. Young Master is very smart. In fact, he’s doing it for the family’s reputation! Young Master Lai was born by the patriarch’s most beloved woman, so he has been spoiled a long time ago.” The more he spoke, the more enthusiastic he became. He even revealed the secrets of the Guan Yue family.
“Since you value the reputation of the family so much, why didn’t you stop Guan Yue Lai’s behavior!” Feng Da asked in puzzlement. Uh! Could that young master have other motives?
“Young Master Lai won’t listen to Young Master. In fact, sometimes Young Master Lai is so willful that he won’t even listen to the patriarch, so Young Master has to think of another way!” Commander Zhao couldn’t help speaking up for their young master. Boohoo… If it wasn’t for the patriarch’s orders, they would want to follow the young master even more because they were not stupid. They knew very well that only by following the young master would they have a future!
“Alas! It’s not easy for your young master either,” Feng Da said politely. In fact, he was not very interested in the secrets of the Guan Yue family. However, he did not mind learning more about the Guan Yue family.
“Yes! It’s really not easy for the young master,” Guard Zhao agreed. He and Feng Da seemed to have found a resonance, and the more they chatted, the more opportunistic they became. They even waited for their ancestors’ eight generations clearly.
Leng Ruoxue looked at Feng Da, who was trying to wring information out of her, speechlessly. Two drops of cold sweat couldn’t help dripping down her forehead. Uh! Feng Da was addicted to wringing information. He even asked about her ancestors.
“Xue’er, shall we take a walk somewhere else?” The freak looked at Feng Da and the others, who were chatting very amiably. Alas! They were really becoming smarter. They were chatting privately with another guard each, haha!
“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue ordered Ling to cast an invisibility spell on the two of them. She was about to leave this lousy yard when a voice without any hidden bitterness sounded in Leng Ruoxue’s heart!
“Xue’er, how can you abandon me!”
“Uh!” Leng Ruoxue let go of the impossible bracelet speechlessly and couldn’t help but grumble in her heart. Can you not say it so ambiguously? Fortunately, the freak couldn’t hear it. Otherwise, that jealous lover would be jealous again.
Without Leng Ruoxue’s instructions, Ling took the initiative to cast an invisibility spell on Empty. Then he said to Leng Ruoxue, “Master, it’s done.”
“Yes, good!” Leng Ruoxue caressed Ling’s soft and tender scales.
“Let’s go!” Leng Ruoxue said to the freak and Empty. The three of them left the remote broken yard.
“Xue’er, the Guan Yue family seems to have twice as many guards as yesterday!” The three of them walked all the way to the vicinity of the main house. After seeing a sentry every three steps and a sentry every five steps, Empty said in disbelief, Wasn’t this Guan Yue family making a mountain out of a molehill? They only lost some food, was there a need to be so nervous!
“It seems like they didn’t eat breakfast today again,” Leng Ruoxue said in realization, her beautiful face full of a naughty smile. Hehe, the people sent by the Guan Yue family to purchase food yesterday seemed to have returned this morning. Moreover, she heard from Qing Jue that they should have gone to other cities to purchase food because there just happened to be no more food in the shops of Guan Yue City. Alas! To say that the Guan Yue family was really unlucky. How did they manage to sell all the food in Guan Yue City just in time? In fact, if they really wanted to pursue the matter, it was all the trouble caused by the flower appreciation festival!
As the flower appreciation festival was about to begin, many inns had a large stockpile of food to prevent a shortage of goods by then. The food in the shops of Guan Yue City had already been sold out, and new food had not arrived. Therefore, it created the predicament of the Guan Yue family being unable to buy food everywhere. However, what was even more unlucky was that the food in the shop of the Guan Yue family had already been supplied to the Moon Gazing Restaurant, but the Moon Gazing Restaurant had collapsed. Otherwise, the Guan Yue family would not be hungry collectively.
“Hehe, of course!” Empty smiled mischievously and said in realization.
At this moment, Guan Yue Long was sitting on the main seat with a black face in the meeting hall of the Guan Yue family. He was cursing in his heart non-stop. Damn it! Who on earth was messing with them like this? It was fine that they didn’t get to eat yesterday, but they couldn’t find anyone. They finally got some food from other cities this morning, but it was gone again before they could eat. It was really infuriating!
“Patriarch, this matter must be investigated and punished severely. The people who stole our food are really too despicable,” the six old men said abnormally angrily. Boohoo… Several shops under the Guan Yue family had to suspend their operations because of the lack of raw materials. One had to know that those were very profitable shops. Their family’s losses every day would be considerable if they stopped their operations like this!
“Sixth Elder, isn’t it obvious? Is there a need for you to say it!” The Fifth Elder pouted and said lightly. He was obviously not interested in the Sixth Elder’s hindsight.
“You…”
“Shut up!” Guan Yue Long roared with a slight headache. He was annoyed enough. These elders still didn’t let him worry. He was really angry.
The Sixth Elder was about to flare up when he was scared speechless by the patriarch’s stern shout.
“Patriarch, the Wu family’s patriarch is here.” Suddenly, a guard walked into the meeting hall and reported.
“What is he doing here?” Guan Yue Long frowned and said with some displeasure.
“Haha! I’m here to deliver food to you!” The Wu family’s patriarch laughed and entered uninvited.
“Wu Ming, what are you doing here?” Guan Yue Long asked with a very cold tone. The expression on his face was obviously not welcoming him. Hmph! He was already annoyed enough, but this annoying fellow actually came to cause trouble for him. He was really going too far!
“I came to deliver food to you! Didn’t I say that just now?” Wu Ming said with a face full of pity. The expression on his face was obviously saying, ‘You’re old, can’t you understand me?’
“Thank you for your good intentions. We don’t need it,” Guan Yue Long said without gratitude. Hmph! Eating people’s mouths was short. He didn’t dare to eat anything from Wu Ming.
“Really? But I heard you’ve been hungry for a day.” Wu Ming gloated.
“Who said that? We’re not hungry at all. Don’t listen to the rumors outside,” Guan Yue Long roared angrily. Damn it, Wu Ming actually saw his joke. Moreover, his stomach made a disappointing sound as he said this, making him blush..
