C26 He Is Right

Xiao Yunyi didn't pay attention to the other party's surprised gaze as he greeted him before leaving with Lan Xi.

This action, in the eyes of that person, made him have more thoughts. This was the first time Xiao Yunyi introduced a woman to an outsider. He even said that this person was his friend; this was big news.

After getting on the carriage, Lan Xi pulled Xiao Yunyi by the hand and uncomfortably rubbed his hand.

Seeing her actions, Xiao Yunyi knew that he had used too much strength just now. He coughed uncomfortably, "It's almost time. Let's go."

Lu Zihao, who was sitting in front, answered and drove.

Xiao Yunyi and Lan Xi sat in the back. The two of them were separated by a person's distance, so they both tilted their heads to the side, not looking at each other.

Xiao Yunyi didn't know why he had introduced Lan Xi to his friends, but he felt that this wasn't enough.

When he thought of that person's identity, he became irritated. That person was famous in the circle for not hiding anything. Once he found out about something, the entire circle would quickly know about it. And Lan Xi wouldn't be able to hide her identity.

"That person from before …" After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yunyi finally spoke, "You don't need to bother with him. You might not meet him again in the future. You don't have to care what he says or what you hear from others. "

Afraid that Lan Xi would be under psychological pressure, Xiao Yunyi intentionally gave her a precaution.

However, those words didn't seem to mean anything to Lan Xi. Lan Xi felt that Xiao Yunyi said this because he didn't want others to misunderstand their relationship.

After all, she was only his friend, and in the eyes of others, he had a childhood sweetheart by his side.

"I know, don't worry." Lan Xi replied stiffly.

Xiao Yunyi felt that her attitude wasn't right, but since they were already at the Xiao family's residence, he didn't say anything.

Following closely behind Xiao Yunyi, Lan Xi didn't even glance at him. Xiao Yunyi was very satisfied with her behavior, but it was funny to see her being as cautious as a little animal.

Xiao Yunyi walked into the main hall with that smile on his face.

Xiao Jianan was currently watching the international news while sipping his tea. When he saw the two enter, he only raised his head slightly, but didn't even glance at Lan Xi. It was an unapproachable look. However, the old man was muttering to himself that Xiao Yunyi was actually smiling.

Xiao Jianan remembered that Xiao Yunyi had always been a person of importance since he was young. When he grew up, he would always keep a cold smile on his face. It was rare to see him interested in anything, so the number of times he laughed became even less. He didn't expect her to be smiling today. It seemed that this woman was indeed not ordinary.

Old Man Xiao didn't speak, while Xiao Yunyi and Lan Xi stood to the side.

Xiao Yunyi looked like he was used to it, but Lan Xi felt very awkward. In the past, when she took missions, people would often ignore her, so she had learned to read other's expressions.

"Director Xiao, didn't you bring a present for Old mister Xiao when you came? Hurry and take it out for the old man to see. "

Lan Xi took the initiative to speak up. She looked at Xiao Yunyi with a smile on her face, but her eyes were urging him to quickly resolve this awkward situation.

Ye Ci made eye contact with Lan Xi, indicating that she understood.

Xiao Yunyi sat on the sofa beside Xiao Jianan and also pulled Lan Xi to his side. Afterwards, he asked Lu Zihao to bring out the box he had brought from the antique shop.

"Take a look, grandfather. This is your present."

Xiao Yunyi took the box, placed it on the tea table, and pushed it in front of the old man.

Although the Xiao family's old patriarch still had a stony face, his heart was filled with curiosity towards this gift. However, he didn't even glance at Lan Xi, as if this person didn't exist.

Lan Xi wasn't angry. She knew that the Xiao family's old patriarch definitely didn't want to be associated with an assassin. Furthermore, it was Xiao Yunyi who was involved with her.

He opened the box and saw the polished pieces of the chess pieces neatly placed inside. Under the illumination of the lights, they gave off a beautiful light. He picked them up and began to play with them. It was truly a rare item.

"I heard about this from Old Man Li. He even boasted to me about his grandson taking it down. I didn't expect it to fall into your hands. You spent quite a bit, right?"

Xiao Jianan lightly said, but his tone did not hide his fondness for it.

"Nothing." Xiao Yunyi did not mind.

"Hmph, it's nothing. You always say that, but you do quite a bit." There were hidden meanings within Xiao Zhan's words.

Xiao Yunyi frowned and was about to say something, but he was interrupted by a voice.

"Grandpa is right. Big Brother doesn't care about anything, but he has done a lot." If you do too many small movements, it's just big movements. "

Xiao Ran walked in from the door as she took off her clothes and threw them to the servant.

"Ah, this lady is the one who lives in my big brother's house, the killer lady?"

Xiao Ran purposefully stopped in front of Lan Xi. He asked as he looked at her, his tone filled with provocation.

Lan Xi didn't seem to mind Xiao Ran's gaze as she smiled and said, "I have indeed been living in Director Xiao's house recently. However, how could Second Young Master know about this so clearly? Did you find a room in Director Xiao's villa?"

After the fake death incident last time, Lan Xi now knew that the person who had told her to kill Xiao Yunyi was her younger cousin, Xiao Ran, the second young master of the Xiao family.

However, Lan Xi had originally thought that Xiao Ran had already been dealt with by Xiao Yunyi. He hadn't expected that Xiao Yunyi would still be able to return to the Xiao family's old residence to brush up his existence.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, what a sharp-tongued person." Xiao Ran shook his head and sighed before sitting beside Xiao Laoshi, "Elder brother, you must be careful. You have such a powerful person by your side. Oh, no. " He shook his head, "It is precisely because he is so powerful that you should be more at ease. However, I don't know if the young lady sitting next to you is stronger, or if the eldest young lady of the Mu family is stronger. "

It was finally here.

Lan Xi thought for a while. Finally, she mentioned Mu Ya Ran. After staying here for so long, no one mentioned Mu Ya Ran. Lan Xi thought that the day would pass just like that. He didn't expect that it was Xiao Ran who brought it up.

Xiao Yunyi used an indifferent gaze to look at Xiao Ran. "You don't have to worry about that."

When Xiao Ran saw the expression in Xiao Yunyi's eyes, he suddenly remembered that when Xiao Yunyi had appeared at that fake funeral, he had also been looking at him like a clown.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Xiao Ran slapped the table and stood up, "What do you mean? "Do you really think you can bring this woman here today …" Before Xiao Ran could finish his words, he was cut off by two voices.

"He's right."

"Shut up and sit down!"
