Lan Xi looked at Xiao Yunyi in astonishment and ignored him. She paced back and forth in the courtyard as though she didn't want to communicate with him.
Qiao Lin came out and told Xiao Yunyi that the old man had called, and Xiao Yunyi went to answer the call.
Lan Xi looked at his back. She had some doubts in her heart, but she didn't ask.
"We've already contacted the Mu family. When you have the chance, come out. Let's have a meal together and settle the matter between you and Mu Yaran." Xiao Jianan's emotionless voice sounded from the phone.
Xiao Yunyi was a little agitated as he ridiculed, "What's wrong? Can't their company do it anymore? Why are they so anxious to use their daughter in exchange for benefits? "
"What are you talking about?" Old Man Xiao scolded him harshly.
"What is it? Am I wrong? "
Ever since he had a conversation with Xiao Jianan in the flower room, he had lost his calm and self-control in front of him.
"I don't care what you think in your heart, but you can't show it in front of the Mu family." Although this method is very shameless, it is undeniable that it is very useful. You must think about the consequences of your willfulness, think about whether the person whom you have been protecting, can bear the consequences of your willfulness. "
Old Man Xiao's tone was indifferent, but the threat within was not concealed at all.
Subconsciously clenching the microphone in his hand, Xiao Yunyi coldly replied, "I understand. However, I can only tolerate Mu Yaran appearing in front of me. If she does something that's not true, I don't care about her. I think you understand that. "
"It's a disgrace." Old Man Xiao smiled and said, "No matter how much of a loss Mu Yaran has, she would never do something like fighting with her master at someone else's table. Furthermore, this identity is innately given, and is not something that can be forcefully demanded the day after tomorrow. "
Xiao Yunyi could hear the hidden meaning behind Xiao Jianan's words, but he could not refute it.
Lan Xi's identity was indeed a big problem. If he wanted to solve this problem, he could only do it with Lin Shengkun.
Xiao Yunyi's eyes darkened when he thought of Lin Shengkun.
That old guy was still very cunning. After escaping from the base, he had already disappeared without a trace. No one could find him. Lu Zihao and the others hadn't relaxed their pursuit of him, but they had made no headway. Besides that, no one knew where Lan Xi's little brother Lan Yang was.
Like Chi Mohan, Xiao Yunyi also felt that Lin Shengkun must have wanted to use Lan Yang to threaten Lan Xi.
I'm not going to let this happen. Xiao Yunyi silently swore in his heart.
Even after a long time, Xiao Jianan was still unable to hear the voice from the other side of the phone. He knew that Xiao Yun had a plan in her heart.
This grandson of his had his own way of doing things since he was young. Moreover, his actions were very proper and his ability was outstanding. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so confident that he could hand over the Xiao family to him.
This time, however, he flipped the car over on this woman.
However, Xiao Jianan could understand that young people did not experience much, and it was also on the topic of relationships. However, if Xiao Yunyi was able to threaten the interests of the Xiao family because of that woman, he definitely wouldn't allow it.
"Did you hear what I said?" Xiao Jianan reminded Xiao Yunyi.
"I know."
After hanging up the phone, he walked out of the study.
As he left the study, Xiao Yun remembered that Lan Xi was still in the courtyard. He wanted to look for her, but just as he reached the door, he heard a commotion.
Xiao Yunyi raised his head in annoyance. It was Mu Yaran who had arrived and was now standing opposite of Lan Xi.
While pointing at her, she spoke with a loud and disdainful tone. As for Lan Xi, he expressionlessly listened to her. Qiao Lin stood to the side and tried to stop Mu Yaran, but she pushed him away and he fell to the ground.
Lan Xi went to help Qiao Lin up, but was pushed back by Mu Yaran, who had suddenly attacked.
Lan Xi couldn't stand it any longer. She stood up and looked at Mu Yaran, who was stunned by Lan Xi's sudden move. He then became excited and wanted to retaliate against Lan Xi. However, Lan Xi held his hands in a tight grip and was unable to move.
"Despicable man, let me go. Do you know who I am? How dare you treat me like this. Do you believe that I'll let big brother Xiao throw you out of here right now? " Mu Yaran shouted angrily at Lan Xi.
However, Lan Xi merely sneered. With an ice-cold tone, she said, "Alright. Then, let him kick me out. I really want to see that too." If you really can get him to do as you say, I'll really thank you. "
Mu Yaran didn't hear the meaning behind Lan Xi's words, she only felt that she was mocking her.
She stretched out her long fingernails in anger and wanted to grab Lan Xi, but her hand was tightly gripped by Lan Xi. It was difficult for her to move.
Looking at Mu Yaran's flushing face and messy hair, Lan Xi felt that it was boring. She released her hand and pushed her to the side.
Lan Xi helped Qiao Lin up. "Are you alright? Do you want to see a doctor?"
Qiao Lin shook her head and stood up with Lan Xi's help. The two of them were about to head back and deal with the situation when they raised their heads and saw Xiao Yunyi looking at them. The two of them were startled.
"I haven't finished speaking, why did you run away? "You actually dare to push me, you …"
Mu Yaran stood up and followed behind Lan Xi as she continued to curse. However, she also noticed the strange atmosphere around them. Following their gazes, she saw that Xiao Yunyi had appeared within her line of sight. She immediately stopped talking.
The atmosphere suddenly turned awkward. Mu Yaran's first reaction was to tidy up her clothes.
Then, she quickly came back to her senses. It was all thanks to Lan Xi that she was able to make use of her current appearance to look as miserable as Xiao Yun. Following his heart's desire, Mu Yaran immediately reacted.
"Big Brother Xiao." Then, she looked at him pitifully, "Look at this woman. She actually did this to me. She actually made a move on me. Please don't let her stay here any longer. Throw her out." If she stays here, she'll make a mess of your life. "
Lan Xi had also recovered from her shock. Looking at Mu Yaran's pretentious appearance, she found it a little funny. "Miss Mu, you are indeed from a prestigious family. You are really good at acting. You can even compete for the role of an Oscar."
Lan Xi bluntly laughed at him. She didn't want to watch him put on an act any longer. She supported Qiao Lin into the villa.
Mu Yaran originally wanted to stop him, but when she recalled her current bullied role, she resisted.
"Big Brother Xiao."
She shouted in anger, but the latter only glanced at her before following Lan Xi and the rest back to the villa.
