Return to China (12)
"Mr. Xiao, I'm in a bit of a hurry, I didn't prepare so many gifts, don't blame me!"
Before lunch, a few unexpected guests came. Xiao Tao was smiling, it seemed that several people from the other party had come, and he didn't expect it at all.
"Mrs. Jin, Xiao has inconvenient legs and feet, otherwise, he would have come to visit a long time ago! Hehe, Xiao An'an has grown so big, and she looks very healthy when she looks chubby! ”
There weren't many people coming, just a woman holding a child, followed by two girls who looked like maids, and the driver was moving the car to the parking location.
"Lady Eliza, help me talk to the kitchen, cook a few more dishes, there are guests, make a little more hearty!"
After hearing Xiao Tao's greeting, Eliza nodded and left. Xue Ke'er looked at Xiao Tao teasing Xiao An'an, her face was full of envy, she sat on the side, and Xiao An'an's mother, Mrs. Jin, laughed and talked about some interesting things with each other.
Soon, a table full of delicious and delicious meals was placed in front of them. Xiao Tao and Xue Ke'er sat on the side, next to Mrs. Jin, and a maid next to her was holding Xiao An'an, also sitting on the side, between her and Xue Ke'er.
"I probably know everything about the Jin family! Alas, in fact, this is also a helpless thing, many things happen that happen, and it is also a lack of people's hearts and do not understand the truth of contentment! I also want to thank Mr. Xiao, if it weren't for you, whether the Jin family would be able to keep this family business and have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions! ”
The food on the table was almost eaten, Xiao An'an was lively, and he couldn't sit still when he felt full, Xue Ke'er and the maid who took care of him were teasing beside him, Mrs. Jin pulled some seats closer, with a somewhat complicated smile on her face, and said to Xiao Tao in a low voice.
"Hehe, people are not sages, who can do nothing! I also have a relationship with the Jin family, and this matter is also convenient! The Jin family was originally used by people with intentions, and the sin is not in the body! What's more, if it weren't for Jin Yuxin and Jin Yuming's help, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly! ”
Xiao Tao smiled indifferently, also lowered his voice, and said softly. The two were chatting while looking not far away with a smile on their faces. Because of Xiao An'an's relationship, they are also slightly closer than ordinary people. In addition, Xiao Tao also solved the two major criminal organizations through the Jin family. Although the merit is not worth it, it is enough to protect the innocent people who are implicated for the Nuoda Jin family.
"Fortunately, we don't live far, Mr. Xiao, we'll bother again when we have time! An An is sleepy, so we will say goodbye first! ”
Xiao An'an is much more energetic than ordinary children of the same age, and Xue Ke'er and Xiao Jin's daughter, who are playing together, are a little tired of playing, and he can't stop giggling. However, it was also time to rest, Mrs. Jin said goodbye with a smile, and under the eyes of Xiao Tao and Xue Ke'er, she walked to the car parked not far away with the people who came with her.
"I'm tired too, go squint for a while, and then call me if you have something!"
Today's weather is good, Xiao Tao is very happy about the natural atmosphere outside, and after saying a word to Xue Ke'er, he was accompanied by Mao Bingbing and a few Mao family members, and walked to the small bamboo forest in the garden. Maoshan took the rest of the people and patrolled the garden.
"Steal half a day of leisure, don't envy mandarin ducks and immortals!"
The afternoon sun is very warm, but except for Xiao Tao, who has this leisure and enjoys this comfortable time leisurely, ordinary people don't have this effort.
The early summer sun isn't too blazing, but it's the south, and it feels much hotter than the north. It was this small bamboo forest, there was a gust of wind blowing, Xiao Tao closed his eyes comfortably, and soon he was half lying in a wheelchair, and there was a melodious breathing rhythm.
"Here, where?"
In a daze, Xiao Tao opened his eyes, but everywhere he looked, it was illusory, not like a real world. After looking around for a moment, Xiao Tao's body floated forward. He didn't notice that his body was moving forward without lifting his legs or shaking his feet.
"Who are you?"
A figure sitting on the throne of white jade blood pattern, dressed in imperial robes, and seemed to be awakened by Xiao Tao's breath here, and in his open eyes, blue and blue flashed alternately.
"You're here!"
Just like a greeting between good friends, the person sitting on the throne had a little smile on his face, and the corners of his lips were not open, but Xiao Tao seemed to have heard his voice.
"What is this place and who are you?"
There is something real and terrible here, but all of them, those blue, blue, red, gold, black, or white, all kinds of colors are intertwined with the water-like flow, which makes Xiao Tao instinctively feel that everything here will not be real.
"This is your realm, and I, I'm you!"
It was still the same muffled voice, as if the answer had already appeared in his head when he first asked.
In Xiao Tao's somewhat frightened gaze, only the pair of eyes and the smiling figure at the corner of the mouth could be seen on the other side, and the face slowly became clearer. Except for the emperor's eyes that are like gods, indifferent to the life and death of thousands of living beings, the more closely that face looks, the more it is the same as seeing himself in the mirror.
"Are you me, or am I you?"
Xiao Tao, who frowned, looked at this realm that seemed to be a dream, and a faint realization was born in his heart. His eyes looked directly at the eyes of the figure, and in the dark, he seemed to see that the smile on that face was a little thicker.
"Why me?"
Xiao Tao's voice carried a hint of anger, and with his questioning roar, this illusory realm was like a burst of muffled thunder. The flow of light was also a little faster than before. And the figure sitting on the throne also seemed to be a little illusory, and his face began to be difficult to see.
"It's not me who chooses you, it's you who chooses me!"
Xiao Tao, who opened his eyes, heard a somewhat familiar voice in his mind, and then a face full of concern appeared in front of him.
"Master Xiao, are you alright?" "Mr. Xiao, are you okay!" "Brother Tao, don't scare me so much!"
Not only Mao Bingbing and Maoshan, Zhong Wen and Zhong Wen, those young generation cultivators of the Zhong Mao family, as well as Xiao Dan and Eliza, Sister Xiaojin's mother and daughter also stood aside, and Xue Ke'er looked teary-eyed, half-squatting aside.
"Hehe, it's okay, I slept for a while!"
Xiao Tao chuckled lightly, looking at the eyes of a group of people looking at him, with more or less respect and surprise, as if something bizarre had happened to him just now.
"Brother Tao, let's get married!" "Good!" 1
