Chapter 517: Coming to the door
Ripple smiled lightly and rejected Rodman's matchmaking, for a woman whose heart was not in Lotus, Ripple decisively refused for the original body, she would not bring rotten peach blossoms to the original body.
"I see, do you still want to go to the trial with Leia?"
"It's just a trial together, it doesn't make a difference, and it's not just the two of us."
Ripple definitely wants to leave Rava City, first, for the trial, second, to see if there is a problem with the phantom beast, and third, to find Bai Feng to meet, so she will definitely not give up this opportunity to go out for a Leia.
"Okay, you can make your own decisions."
Rodman felt that his youngest son had grown up, not only in terms of force but also in heart, which made him very happy.
When Rodman was about to explain a few words, the butler of the mansion walked in, saluted respectfully, and said:
"Master, the heads of the five families in the city, Heni, Soya, Ratty, Senluo, and Dilan, came to visit, saying that they wanted to see Young Master Lian."
"They're coming to see Lian?"
Rodman asked rhetorically.
"Yes, sir!"
"Let them in!"
Rodman said lightly.
After the housekeeper left, Rodman asked about his youngest son:
"Do you know why they're seeing you?"
"Maybe it's to apologize to me!"
Ripple knew what was going on, but it was not appropriate to tell the truth at this time, she just explained casually.
When the heads of the five families of Heni, Soya, Ratti, Senluo, and Dilan entered the main hall, they saw the silver-haired and purple-eyed Rodman, and the flat lotus on the side, the five of them glanced at each other, feeling that the words they had discussed before were a little inappropriate, and finally Henie greeted Rodman first.
Connor Rodman, as the head of the family, has absolute authority in the city of Rawa, and although he is polite to these small families, his attitude is also detached.
"Lian, come and meet a few family heads."
Rodman said to his son, who was standing.
"Lian has seen all the family masters!"
Ripples made a junior salute and retreated to their place.
"Lian, did you do something wrong? Let the five heads of the house come to meet you. ”
Rodman sat at the head and asked in a flat tone.
"Father, I think several heads of the family apologized to me on behalf of their children."
Ripples are talking nonsense with their eyes open.
As soon as his words came out, the five family heads were a little baffled, but Rodman asked:
"Lian, are you at odds with your friends?"
The tone is very careless, as if it doesn't matter if it's a conflict.
"They said to my face that I was an illegitimate child and that I was not qualified to inherit the Rodman family."
Ripple is telling the truth.
Hearing this, Rodman's brows furrowed slightly, but the faces of the five family heads led by Henie changed, and they seemed to realize something, and they all looked straight at the ripples.
"And how did you deal with it?"
Rodman continued.
"What can I do, don't play with them! I haven't seen them for two months, probably because I know that I want to go out to practice and want to follow the trial team of the Rodman family, so I asked the elders to come to the door to apologize. ”
Ripple said lightly, perfectly showing the arrogance and disdain of the young man.
"Young Master Lian, you said you haven't seen them for two months?"
The head of the Heni family hurriedly asked.
"Yes! They didn't say I was an illegitimate child, but I came back to my father to verify it, and I never saw them again. ”
Ripple said lightly.
"But the children of our five families have been missing for ten days."
"Missing?"
Ripple raised his eyebrows, and then seemed to understand, raised his eyebrows, and said a little angrily:
"Uncle Henney means they're gone, and it has something to do with me? Do you have proof? ”
"This"
Henie just didn't have any evidence, so he came to see Lian, wanting to get some news from Lian, a child who didn't know the world, but he didn't expect to alarm the head of the Rodman family, and Lian didn't hide anything to say that he was in a state of disconnection with their children, which made them have no idea what to do.
"Someone saw you go out of town with them."
Henie said without giving up.
"Who saw that? Which day? ”
Ripple's face remained unchanged and asked directly.
I don't know if the people on the other side really have the exact news, or if they want to cheat Lian, after hearing the other party's questioning, the five heads of the Dilan family said a time, which happened to be the afternoon of the day when Ripple and Leia Hani met.
"Heh, I don't know who is playing with you, I didn't leave the house at all that day, because Leia, the young lady of the Hani family, is here, she wants to team up with me to experience, that day we officially met, she is a distinguished guest of the Rodman family, how could I go out that day."
Ripples had a ridiculous look on your face, and said what happened to the distinguished guests that day.
Because he was very sure, those five people had bad intentions, and they would definitely not let people know that they were going to see Lian, plus what she heard when she occupied Lian's body, and Emilio, the eldest brother who wanted to kill people with a knife, helped Lian cover up his whereabouts, and he returned in time and saw Leia, these people are her witnesses, so she has nothing to fear.
"Your child is missing, I deeply regret it, and I will cooperate with you to help find it, now that you have asked Lian, please go back!"
Rodman said in a cold tone.
The five had no choice but to leave, after all, they had no evidence, and it was already very rude to come to the door to ask, and if they really offended the Rodman family to death, they would not be happy.
After the five of them left, Rodman waved his hand to let the guards present go down, and when everyone was gone, he said:
"Lian, you tell me the truth, where are those five people?"
"I killed it, and now it should have become food for the mouths of the demonic beasts in the dark forest."
Ripple didn't hide it either, and directly told the truth.
Rodman's expression remained unchanged, and he asked directly about the reason, and Ripple briefly told what happened.
"You used Laye's waist card to enter and exit the city, but Laye was in the mansion that day, this is a loophole, and then I will help you fill it."
Rodman said lightly.
"Thank you, father!"
"Why didn't you tell the truth in front of them just now?"
"I'm leaving, it's better to have more than one thing to do, although the five of them are small families, but if they unite because of their son, it won't be good to stumble the Rodman family."
"You are quite thoughtful, you still have to be vigilant in the future, otherwise you will be the one who will die next time."
"Father, I've already been taught a lesson, and the same thing will never happen a second time."
"Alright, you go and prepare!"
Rodman sent his son away, and his face sank until he couldn't see anyone.
A few garbage with mediocre qualifications from a small family actually dared to calculate their sons, this time it was Lian's luck and she escaped with her ability, but Lady Luck will not stand by her son's side every time.
