"Ahem."

Ling Shanhai retracted his somewhat dull gaze and coughed lightly.

He raised his eyes to look at Ling Qingxuan and Zhang Xiaofan, his face slightly embarrassed.

He has always admired the worldly master Jade Dao who has always admired and served as a guest, but for some reason, he behaved so badly in front of the two juniors, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

"The Taoist ......"

Ling Qingxuan looked at the direction in which the Jade Dao Chief left, and there was still a trace of consternation on his face, but Zhang Xiaofan looked as if nothing had happened.

"Huh?"

Ling Shanhai saw it in his eyes, and was surprised in his heart, this kid really has a bit of a doorway.

"Junior, Zhang Xiaofan, meet the old man."

Zhang Xiaofan took a step forward, bent down slightly, and said respectfully.

"No need to be polite."

Ling Shanhai waved his hand, his gaze converged, and he once again returned to his calm appearance like the sea.

"Uncle Yuan is good!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xiaofan said hello to Yuan Bo, who was standing beside Ling Shanhai.

Yuan Bo was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Zhang Xiaofan to greet him, but he quickly reacted and nodded at Zhang Xiaofan, with a kind smile on his face.

"Very good, young man, polite."

After Ling Shanhai glanced at Zhang Xiaofan with appreciation, he instructed Yuan Bo beside him, "Ah Yuan, go and move two chairs." ”

"Yes."

Yuan Bo went and returned, moved two chairs from the house, and asked Zhang Xiaofan and Ling Qingxuan to sit down. Then, he stood beside Ling Shanhai again, motionless, like a sculpture.

Zhang Xiaofan glanced at it and knew it in his heart.

It seems that this inconspicuous Uncle Yuan should belong to Old Man Ling's confidant.

"Xiao Qi, how is the birthday party?"

Ling Shanhai looked at Ling Qingxuan and asked with a smile.

"Everything went well, the only pity is that grandpa can't be there in person."

Ling Qingxuan replied crisply.

"Grandpa is old. I don't like the noise either. ”

Ling Shanhai shook his head and said in a kind tone: "As long as you are happy, among so many grandchildren, grandpa loves you the most." ”

"Grandpa......"

Ling Qingxuan's eyes suddenly turned slightly red. His tone choked.

"Xiao Qi, today is your twentieth birthday, and it is your coming-of-age ceremony, but you must not cry."

Ling Shanhai's tone was a little more serious.

"Yes, Grandpa."

Ling Qingxuan hurriedly rubbed her eyes. Smile widely.

"That's right."

Ling Shanhai turned his gaze, looked at Zhang Xiaofan, and said, "Young man, I once sent someone to secretly investigate you. Would you mind if you would have cared about it? ”

There was an intriguing flavor in his tone.

Moreover, after he finished speaking, his eyes were firmly on Zhang Xiaofan, carefully observing Zhang Xiaofan's reaction.

The blind man also saw it, and he asked the question. Just to test Zhang Xiaofan.

This is a very difficult question to answer.

It's too hypocritical to say I don't mind.

Say mind...... Ahem, is this the rhythm of turning your face.

"Mind and don't mind."

Zhang Xiaofan pondered for a few seconds and said with a smile.

"Oh, what do you mean?"

Ling Shanhai's face showed a hint of interest, and Ling Qingxuan also turned her head to stare at Zhang Xiaofan, with some worry in her beautiful eyes.

"I don't mind because of that. No one likes to be investigated, and I'm no exception. ”

Zhang Xiaofan looked at Ling Shanhai with both eyes, and said calmly: "I don't mind, that's because you are Qingxuan's grandfather." In the case of caring about Qing Xuan, it is normal and excusable to conduct some investigations on me. ”

Bang Bang Bang!

Ling Shanhai stretched out his two palms, slapped them lightly, and said in an appreciative tone: "You are a witty young man. That's a clever answer, but—"

He changed his voice and continued to ask, "You haven't answered me yet, do you mind?" ”

Damn, this old man, it's really hard to deal with!

After Zhang Xiaofan complained in his heart, he said, "So far, I don't mind. However, I hope that the old man will not send anyone to investigate me in the future, otherwise, I will mind very much! ”

Airplanes!

As soon as the voice fell, there was silence in the field.

Ling Shanhai stared at Zhang Xiaofan silently, his eyes were deep, and he couldn't see joy, anger and sorrow.

Ling Qingxuan clenched the corners of her clothes tightly, and stopped talking.

Yuan Bo, who had been silent, took a deep look at Zhang Xiaofan.

Zhang Xiaofan's face was frank, since the old man asked to the end, then he simply opened the skylight and said something bright. Moreover, these words are also what he wants to say very much.

He has a lot of secrets and never likes to be investigated!

"Hahaha!"

After half a ring, Ling Shanhai suddenly let out a hearty laugh.

"Good, good!"

He looked at Zhang Xiaofan with more appreciation, and said, "In Qingjiang Province, there are not many people who dare to talk to me like this. You are young, but you are not small, haha, very courageous. ”

"The kid is straightforward, a lot of offense, and I ask the old man to forgive me."

Zhang Xiaofan arched his hand and said.

"What sins!"

Ling Shanhai frowned and said, "A man's nature is what he should be." If you hide your head, I will look down on you. ”

"That's what the old man said."

Zhang Xiaofan responded with a smile, it seems that this level has passed.

Ling Qingxuan, who was sitting next to him, was also secretly relieved, for fear that his grandfather would ask any more difficult questions, so he hurriedly said in a coquettish voice: "Grandpa, Xiaofan is younger than me, don't embarrass him anymore." ”

"Xiao Qi, don't look at his young age, his means are not small."

After Ling Shanhai glanced at Zhang Xiaofan meaningfully, he said categorically: "Young man, from now on, the old man will not send anyone to investigate you again." ”

"Thank you for your understanding."

Zhang Xiaofan hugged his fists and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

I hope that Old Man Ling's words count, otherwise, he will have to take some countermeasures. The secrets about him, no matter what, can't be divulged!

"By the way, on my first visit, I brought two gifts for you, old man."

Zhang Xiaofan opened the backpack on his body and took out two gift boxes.

"Oh, what gift?"

Ling Shanhai did not refuse, but asked with interest.

He was a little curious about what gifts Zhang Xiaofan would give him, and it was two.

"This is a box of Longjing tea."

Zhang Xiaofan stepped forward, put one of the gift boxes on the stone table, and said, "This tea is not bad, the old man can taste it." ”

"Xiaofan, is it the kind of tea I drank last time?"

Ling Qingxuan suddenly said with an excited face.

"That's right."

Zhang Xiaofan smiled and nodded.

"What's so strange about this tea?"

Looking at his granddaughter with an excited face, Ling Shanhai couldn't help but put away the faint disappointment in his eyes.

At first, he thought that Zhang Xiaofan would give some interesting gifts, but it turned out to be an old-fashioned thing like tea, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

However, looking at Xiao Qi's appearance, this tea does not seem to be simple.

"Grandpa, this tea is delicious."

Ling Qingxuan glanced at Zhang Xiaofan, raised her chin slightly, and said a little proudly: "It's even better than the Wuyi Da Hong Robe that you treasure and can't afford to drink!" ”
