Chapter 2: The Seeds of Hatred
"Wait. ”
Bai Hongyuan's father and son had just turned around, and a voice full of coldness sounded clearly behind him: "Is the Xiao family a place where you can come and leave when you want?"
It's Xiao Wanlong's voice!
After Xiao Yunfei's reminder just now, Xiao Wanlong also really understood that the Bai family had already bullied the door, and there was absolutely no possibility of peace talks.
Since they are destined to be enemies, there is no affection to talk about, not to mention, if the Xiao family wants to rise again, they must defeat the Bai family strongly, and step on the other party to prove that the Xiao family still has strong strength.
"Then what do you want?" Bai Hongyuan's forehead burst, suppressing the anger in his heart, slowly turned around, looked at Xiao Wanlong coldly and asked.
Standing in his position, he didn't expect that he was already soft, and the Xiao family was still not satisfied.
However, the situation is in front of him, no matter how angry he is, only by temporarily compromising can he save the lives of his father and son, as well as many children of the Bai family.
"It's very simple, I hope that Brother Bai can fulfill the gambling contract and hand over thirty percent of the Bai family's property. Xiao Wanlong's eyes were cold, and he put forward conditions without concession.
That's right, when the Bai family came to provoke, the two had already agreed that no matter who lost, they must hand over their thirty percent of the industry as a bet.
"You ......"
"What? Does the dignified Bai family want to tear up the gambling contract? This news spreads, I'm afraid it will ......."
"Okay, I'll arrange it as soon as possible, and ask Brother Xiao to send someone over to hand it over. ”
Although Xiao Wanlong's later words were not spoken, how could Bai Hongyuan not feel the threat in them?
What's more, once this news spreads, the reputation and prestige of the entire Bai family will be drastically affected, and such a consequence is completely unbearable for Bai Hongyuan.
"With Brother Bai's words, I'm completely relieved, please. Xiao Wanlong's eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his mouth outlined a satisfied smile, and he calmly made a gesture of please.
Hum!
Bai Hongyuan snorted coldly, turned around directly, and left with the children of the Bai family.
Looking at the gradually disappearing back, Xiao Wanlong's face became solemn, although he won the Bai family's three-percent industry, there was still a distance from the rise of the Xiao family.
It wasn't until a long time that he withdrew his gaze and put it on Xiao Yunfei's body.
The performance just now was completely beyond his expectations.
Over the years, Xiao Yunfei's overseas experience, although Xiao Wanlong has also investigated, but there has never been a definite result, and his heart is naturally the same as Bai Chenhao's thoughts, how can he achieve much in just a few years?
Facts have proved that Xiao Yunfei did not disappoint him, and the future of the Xiao family will also fall on Xiao Yunfei.
Thinking of this, there was a burst of relief in his heart, and with a soft gaze, he looked at Xiao Yunfei: "Mo Bo, inform me to hold a family banquet for the Xiao family tonight." ”
"Yes, Master. ”
The old man standing beside Xiao Wanlong responded calmly.
He is the housekeeper of the Xiao family, named Xiao Mo, who is older than Xiao Wanlong, it can be said that he watched Xiao Wanlong grow up, and he has absolute sincerity for the Xiao family.
It is precisely like this that Xiao Mo's gaze when he looks at Xiao Yunfei is also full of softness.
"Dad, the main purpose of my coming back this time is to fulfill my mother's deathbed wish, she wants to enter the Xiao family ancestral hall. Facing Xiao Wanlong's gaze, Xiao Yunfei's gaze darkened.
"Follow me. ”
Xiao Wanlong's face instantly showed a touch of sadness, beckoned to Xiao Yunfei, and led the way in front.
With a hint of doubt, Xiao Yunfei followed closely.
Soon, he had already come to the ancestral hall of the Xiao family.
Pushing open the heavy door, the father and son slowly walked in.
The ancestral shrine, which enshrines the previous ancestors of the Xiao family, just entered, Xiao Yunfei felt a burst of yin qi rushing over, and the names on the Taoist tablet were extremely unfamiliar to him.
It's just that when his eyes fell on the tablet at the bottom of the center, his face was slightly loosened, and the spirit of 'Beloved Wife Meng Qingxuan' was clearly engraved on it.
Xiao Yunfei knew very well in his heart that when Meng Qingxuan took him to go overseas, he had not yet completed his marriage to Xiao Wanlong.
Obviously, in Xiao Wanlong's heart, he had already recognized Meng Qingxuan's status.
As for why he fled overseas, Xiao Yunfei didn't understand it, and his heart was naturally full of deep doubts.
"Qingxuan, after many years, you are finally back, I couldn't stand you back then, and in the future, I will take good care of our son. ”
Standing in front of the tablet, Xiao Wanlong's tone was firm.
"Mom, your last wish, my son has done it, under Jiuquan, I hope you can look at it. Xiao Yunfei's expression was excited, he took off the backpack on his back, took out the wooden box containing his mother's ashes, stepped forward slowly, and placed it on the tablet.
Looking at the urn, Xiao Wanlong's face was both guilty and excited, picked up three sticks of incense, lit it and bowed: "Qingxuan, in this life, I have failed you, and in the next life, if I am destined to be together again, I will definitely fulfill my responsibility as a husband." ”
Next to him, Xiao Yunfei also lit three sticks of incense and bowed silently.
Xiao Wanlong's performance did not disappoint him, although in his heart, he could not really accept this father for the time being, but at least there was not so much resistance.
"Yunfei, you go out and have a good rest first, let me stay quietly with your mother for a while. After Xiao Yunfei inserted the incense, Xiao Wanlong said silently.
Slightly stunned, Xiao Yunfei finally sighed, turned around and walked out of the Xiao family's ancestral hall.
"Young Master, Miss and Madame are back, have you gone over to meet them?" A few steps out of the ancestral hall, the housekeeper Mo Bo had already greeted him, and asked respectfully.
"No need, I just came back, please ask Grandpa Mo to arrange a room so that I can have a good rest." Xiao Yunfei shook his head slightly and refused directly.
Overseas, although I have not seen Xiao Wanlong, I still have a certain understanding of Xiao Wanlong's situation.
The lady in Xiao Mo's mouth, in fact, has no name, but over the years, she has been taking care of Xiao Wanlong's side, and she has been recognized by everyone in the Xiao family.
And, gave birth to a daughter for the Xiao family-Xiao Ruer.
"Okay. ”
Xiao Mo sighed slightly, and did not force Xiao Yunfei.
This kind of thing is not persuasion, the knots in the heart can be untied, and only after the precipitation of time can it be resolved.
Anyway, Xiao Yunfei has already returned, and there is a lot of time in the future.
Finally, under Xiao Mo's arrangement, Xiao Yunfei came to the pre-arranged room to rest.
And the entire Xiao family was filled with an atmosphere of high morale, and the people below were even more excited to prepare for the family banquet in the evening.
Based on this alone, it can be seen that the entire Xiao family is very welcoming to Xiao Yunfei's return.
Of course, this is related to Xiao Yunfei's strong enough strength, if Xiao Yunfei does not have the strength to overwhelm the crowd and sweep away the Bai family, I am afraid that the situation will be reversed.
…………
On the street, on a taxi to the First Hospital, Bai Hongyuan's face was nervous, and he looked at Bai Chenhao who was still in pain beside him with concern: "Chenhao, if you bear with me, we will be in the hospital soon." ”
"Dad, my injury is not serious, I can recover as long as I recuperate for a few months, but I must get this shame back, otherwise, I'm afraid I will never have the possibility of progressing. Bai Chenhao gritted his teeth and looked at Bai Hongyuan, his tone was full of deep unwillingness.
I never thought that the return of the illegitimate son of the Xiao family would be able to defeat himself, the pride of the sky, so easily.
However, that absolute strength has taken deep root in his heart, giving Bai Chenhao a sense of powerlessness.
In particular, the scene of compromise in the Xiao family just now was even more unbearable for him.
"Don't worry, I'll let you get your wish. Bai Hongyuan's face was worried, and he clearly felt that because of this failure, Bai Chenhao's future martial arts had a great shackle, and if he couldn't break it, he would never be able to make progress, and he naturally couldn't accept such a result.
You must know that Bai Chenhao is the best qualified genius of the Bai family in a hundred years, and he is the most promising, breaking through to the strength of transformation before the age of thirty and becoming a real top master.
It can be said that it is the hope of the Bai family in the future.
If it is abolished like this, it will be a disaster for the entire Bai family.
Therefore, even if he tried his best, he must let Bai Chenhao regain his confidence.
But the situation in front of him is not able to act rashly for the time being, Bai Hongyuan can only suppress the anger in his heart, and patiently persuade: "However, this must wait for me to be fully prepared, therefore, Chenhao, your most important task now is to recuperate well and recover from his injuries as soon as possible." ”
"Dad, I understand. ”
Bai Chenhao, who has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, although he has developed an arrogant and unparalleled character because of his family background and popularity, he still has the patience of martial arts practitioners.
Especially the strength shown by Xiao Yunfei made him clearly understand that rash actions will only end in failure, and only patience can seize the opportunity and be ashamed.
"Okay, if you're so sensible, I'll be able to do it freely. Bai Hongyuan's eyes flashed with relief, and there was a touch of cold confidence in his tone.
The Bai family is also a famous family in Jianghai City, with a long history, and naturally has an extremely large network.
As the head of the family, Bai Hongyuan deeply understands that the key to a family taking root is not how many masters there are, so that it can survive forever.
Otherwise, the Xiao family would not have gradually declined with an unfathomable master like Xiao Wanlong.
Therefore, now that Xiao Yunfei has returned and shown strong strength, he may not be able to really protect the Xiao family, but he can still start from other aspects and gradually eat away at the entire Xiao family.
It's just that it takes more time to do so.
But as a result of this incident, the seeds of hatred have been planted, and no one can predict what the future holds.
