  Ning Meng Yao did not even look at Xiao Ming, she pulled Qiao Tian Chang’s hand and brushed past him.

  Looking at their unusually harmonious backs, Xiao Ming had a gloomy and ugly expression.

  Nobody had ever treated him like this, nobody.

  Ning Meng Yao was amused while looking at Qiao Tian Chang, who had a cold expression. She reached out her hand and squeezed his cheeks: “Still angry?”


  ”I hate people who use such a gaze to look at you,” Qiao Tian Chang frowned and said coldly.

  Ning Meng Yao smiled and shook her head: “Even if he was looking, I only have you.”


  ”Now those are words I like to hear,” He reached out his hand and held the hand on his face. The iciness on his face gradually vanished.

  Ning Meng Yao seeing Qiao Tian Chang acting like a child couldn’t help but laugh and shake her head: “Let’s find Xiao Ren.”


  Qiao Tian Chang nodded: “Xiao Ming and Xiao Ren’s relationship might not be so simple.”


  ”They might be grandfather and grandson,” Ning Meng Yao said while not feeling surprised.

  Qiao Tian Chang paused his hand movements, he then nodded his head: “En.”


  When both of them went to find Xiao Ren, he was in his own home thinking about something, he didn’t even notice their arrival.

  ”Young miss, you’re here?” Xiao Ren quickly asked when he saw Ning Meng Yao and Qiao Tian Chang.

  Ning Meng Yao nodded her head, she glanced at Xiao Ren: “While we’re still here, I do not wish for anyone to disrupt us.”


  ”Huh? Who?”


  ”I suppose the one I am referring to should be your grandson,” Ning Meng Yao looked at Xiao Ren, she noticed Xiao Ren’s expression changed and turned ugly for a short moment when she brought it up.

  ”Ming’er? Young miss, don’t worry, this old servant knows what to do,” There was exhaustion in Xiao Ren’s voice, he seemed to be really worried.

  Ning Meng Yao nodded her head, she did not look at Xiao Ren and directly turned around and left.

  ”Grandpa…… Why are you all at my home?” Both of them encountered Xiao Ming who had returned when they were just leaving, he looked at them with slight astonishment.

  Ning Meng Yao glanced at Xiao Ming: “Tian Chang, let’s go take a look around, after that, we’ll have Xiao Ren bring us out tomorrow,” She did not have much time to spout nonsense with Xiao Ming.

  ”En.”


  He was ignored by the both of them once more. Xiao Ming’s expression was frighteningly gloomy, he looked coldly at the scene and entered the house after they left.

  ”Grandpa, why are they here?” Unable to obtain an answer from both of them, Xiao Ming could only ask his grandpa.

  Xiao Ren sighed and looked at his own grandson: “Ming’er, the young miss does not like you bothering them.”


  Xiao Ming’s face stiffened, he frowned in dissatisfaction: “But grandpa……”


  ”Enough Ming’er, you should be able to tell, the young miss is already married, the couple’s relationship is good. I do not hope for you to make a wrong decision,” Xiao Ren frowned and interrupted his grandson.

  He knew how remarkable the young miss was, it was not surprising that his grandson would like her, but what he could not accept was that his grandson still went ahead even after knowing she was married.

  ”Grandpa, am I your grandson? So what if they are married?” Xiao Ming said indifferently.

  After so many years, it was not like he never met any girls outside, but there was never anyone who would make him so interested.

  He liked that woman and wanted her as his wife, so what if she’s already married?

  Xiao Ren was shocked by his grandson’s desire. His body trembled as he pointed a finger at him: “You dare.”


  ”Enough, I know what I’m doing,” Xiao Ming looked at Xiao Ren with impatience.

  Seeing his grandson who had just returned, turn around and leave, Xiao Ren had a face full of regret, he should not have allowed his grandson to leave the tribe with them at that time. He would not have turned out like that.

  He was seriously doubting whether the affirmative words he told Ning Meng Yao was actually a smack on his own face.

  Xiao Ren lifted his aged hands and covered his face.He felt he had failed the task entrusted upon him by his late father.
