Chapter 5 Flowing water is merciless
Xiao Xiao has been sullen for the past few days. She never thought that her father would be so unreasonable, and he would actually use grounding to force herself to comply. But her heart yearns for freedom, and since she has chosen, she will never give up. She decided to make her own way to a silent protest. She went on a hunger strike, and she didn't talk to the people around her, even Xiaoyu and Xiaolu, who were sisters like her. She hopes to use such extreme behavior to get her father's attention. She thought that if her father came to see her again, she would have a way to convince him.
Her expectations finally paid off, but it was not her father Xiao Wanlong who came to see her, but Mo Yantian. Xiao Xiao didn't expect Mo Yitian to come to see him at this time, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised. When he sat down, Xiao Xiao hurriedly asked, "Brother Mo, did Daddy embarrass you?" β
Mo was stunned, it seems that Xiao Xiao doesn't know anything about what happened in the past two days! When he thought about it, it was not surprising that Xiao Xiao refuted his father in public, and Xiao Wanlong would naturally ground her if he was angry and prevent him from contacting others. Mo thought that he was an outsider and it was inconvenient to intervene in the affairs of their father and daughter, so it should be better to keep a lip about this matter.
Thinking of this, Mo Beitian shook his head and said, "Your father didn't embarrass me, I'm fine." β
"That's good, you're fine. Did my dad mention me? Xiao Xiao lowered her head and asked.
"Your father asked me to come to you." Mo Beitian said very calmly.
As soon as Xiao Xiao heard that it was her father's name, Mo Yantian, she suddenly felt that things seemed to have taken a turn for the better, so she immediately asked, "What did my father say?" β
This question really made Mo Zhitian a little embarrassed. Xiao Wanlong did not explain anything specifically. He just asked Mo Zhitian to come and see Xiao Xiao on his behalf, but as for what to say, he asked Mo Zhitian to grasp it himself.
Even if you don't want to get involved in the affairs of these two people, it's difficult, what should you say? This Xiao Wanlong said it soundingly, but what kind of medicine is he selling in this gourd behind this? Although he couldn't grasp Xiao Wanlong's thoughts, Mo Yantian felt that as Xiao Xiao's friend, it was better to comfort Xiao Xiao first.
Mo Yitian sorted out his thoughts and said slowly: "Your father cares about you very much. He asked me to ask you what you think. β
"My thoughts? What can I think, what do I think, you know" Xiao Xiao was obviously a little excited.
"But he's your father after all! is the only relative on your shijie, and he won't harm you. Mo explained patiently.
Xiao Xiao lowered her head again: "I understand what you said." Why don't I care about my father? My dad hasn't been really happy since my mother left. I've always watched my dad sullen since I was a kid. At that time, I hoped that my father would be happy one day. But after all these years, Daddy is still the same, and he's getting weirder and weirder, which is not what I want! β
Mo Zhitian listened to Xiao Xiao's confession, sighed, and said, "Your father's responsibility is far heavier than you think. He also has a lot of unspeakable secrets! In the past few days, he has been planning to fight a war with the Republic, and he is very exhausted. β
"Is he really going to war with the Republic? Brother Mo, you should persuade him not to do anything stupid. Xiao Xiao said eagerly.
Mo Beitian's face was slightly heavy and said: "I have already persuaded him, but he has made up his mind." In three days' time, he will officially set out on the expedition. β
"What should I do?" Xiao Xiao asked.
"I begged your father to let me go with him, and he agreed. Now that I'm one of his subordinates, it's a stopgap measure, at least to remind him not to do anything out of the ordinary at a critical moment. Mo Beitian was also comforting Xiao Xiao, he didn't want to tell her what he really thought. He didn't want Xiao Xiao to know about the ultimate password, the resurrection of the scum, and the real purpose of his trip to Seris.
"What? Are you really going to war with my dad? I'm going with you! When she heard about Mo Yantian's decision, she immediately said excitedly.
"You'd better not go!" Mo said against the sky. γ
"That's what my dad meant?" Xiao Xiao asked. γ
"Nope. That's what I meant. Mo replied calmly.
βweishenmeοΌβ Xiao Xiao was even more excited.
"Because I don't want anything to happen to you!" Mo said against the sky.
"I don't want anything to happen to you!" Xiao Xiao suddenly said with a crying voice.
There's no way for her to cry like this. She knew that Xiao Xiao liked herself in her heart, but he couldn't accept this girl's hot aiqing. Although he learned from the mouths of his ancestors that his real wife was dead. But he couldn't forget that miss Xiaoxue in an instant. Facing Xiao Xiao, he was at a loss. I could only bow my head in shame.
Xiao Xiao had already burst into tears, she didn't have so many scruples, her body leaned forward naturally, and her head rested on Mo Yantian's broad shoulders.
This time it was like returning to the night of that barren mountain, neither of them spoke, and knowledge snuggled up to each other. It was as if time had frozen in this moment.
At the same time, Laksin came to the council chamber. Xiao Wanlong was sitting in his seat with a serious face. When he saw Rakshin walk in front of him, his serious expression instantly transformed into a kind of kindness that an old man treats his juniors.
"After a long journey of so many days and no rest, you have no complaints about going out with me now, right?" Xiao Wanlong asked with a pleasant face.
Lakshen clenched his fists: "Since the commander is going to go on the expedition, then I will go." It's a good idea to go to the soup! β
Xiao Wanlong smiled and said, "You don't have to see the outside so much, there are no outsiders here, so don't call you handsome." Your father and I are brothers, so you might as well call me Uncle Xiao! β
"I'm afraid that's not good, right?" Lakshen was a little hesitant, he didn't know what Xiao Wanlong, the owner of the old village, was going to do.
Xiao Wanlong was obviously a little unhappy when he saw that Lakshen didn't want to call his uncle, he glared and said, "Your father handed you over to me before he died, and I will be your second father." Now I didn't let you call me second father, what's wrong with calling me uncle? β
Lacshen naturally knew him very well under Xiao Wanlong since he was a child, and he knew that the old village owner was really angry, so he immediately hugged his fists and said, "Uncle, don't be angry, it's wrong for the junior just now!" β
Xiao Wanlong was not embarrassed by Lakshen, and quickly put away his angry expression and changed back to the amiable old man just now. He asked a little casually: "Nephew, you and I have been here for more than ten years, right?" β
"Yes, it's been almost twenty years." Laksin replied.
"Oh, that's it! Alas, you're better, at least born outside. My girl is different, she has been hiding in the mountains with me since she was born, and it has been almost twenty years. Xiao Wanlong said with emotion.
He glanced at Lakshin and continued: "You also know that this girl is too playful and always wants to run out. I don't blame her, after all, it's a good thing for young people to want to see the world. But it won't work in the long run, we're going to fight now, and if she runs out like this, something will happen. That's why I came to you to ask for your help. β
"Boss, don't you, uncle, you want my help? How can it help? As long as it is within the scope of my ability, I will definitely go to the soup and fire! Laksin said.
Xiao Wanlong hahadaxiao got up: "You kid, I didn't let you work hard, why did you say it so tragically?" Save your strength to use it when you're fighting. β
Laxin also smirked for a while and asked, "Uncle, my nephew doesn't understand a little." How the hell can I help? β
Xiao Wanlong stopped daxiao when he saw Lakshen ask, and said in a more formal tone: "It's actually very simple to help. You just need to marry Xiao Xiao immediately. β
"What? Get married? Lakshin couldn't believe his ears, he only felt a little spinning, and he could only barely stand up.
Seeing that Lakshen didn't answer, Xiao Wanlong asked, "What, don't you want to?" β
When Xiao Wanlong asked this, he called back Rakshen, who was still in a trance. He hurriedly replied, "No, no, no!" I do, I must be. Just girl, is she willing? β
"You don't have to worry about it over there, I'll naturally get her opinion. Here, as long as you want. Okay, that's it, you'll be married tomorrow! (To be continued......)
