C2295 Elder Zhou's Question
Who is it that came here in the middle of the night? Is he here to cause trouble? Could it be that Zhou Xian had found some helpers?
However, it was impossible because no matter how arrogant Zhou Xian was, he would definitely not come at this time.
"Gang Master Wang, are you there? I'm Elder Zhou." Elder Zhou's voice came from outside the door.
So it was Elder Zhou. Why did he come at this time? However, Wang Xiao knew very well that Elder Zhou must have come at this time for something. If there was nothing else, he would definitely not come and disturb him.
"I'll go open the door." Xiao Yun walked to the door and opened it.
Xiao Yun greeted Elder Zhou politely and then left. Because she was very clear that Elder Zhou came at this time and definitely had something to do with Wang Xiao. She was just a servant and could not stay in the room.
"Elder Zhou, we are old friends. If you need anything, just say it. There is no need to beat around the bush." Wang Xiao went straight to the point.
"Did you offend someone called Nie Lin?" Elder Zhou had a serious expression on his face. He had just found out about this matter and immediately rushed over.
Nie Lin was the son of the patriarch of Nie Family. Wang Xiao had actually killed one of his subordinates. This matter was indeed very serious.
"Yes, what's wrong? Is there a problem?" Wang Xiao asked, knowing the answer. In fact, he knew that there must be a problem.
"When Madam found out about this, she wanted to come personally, but because of the family rules, she could not come. So Madam asked me to ask you if you need any help."
"No need. I can handle this small matter myself." To Wang Xiao, it was indeed just a small matter. He didn't need any help.
He didn't expect that his parents would already know about this matter. However, it was very normal. After all, the Zhou Family had many eyes and ears. Someone had already told his parents about this matter.
"Gang Master Wang, you have to be careful. If you need help, Madam and Patriarch will definitely help you." Elder Zhou said.
"I will remember. If you need help, I will tell them."
Currently, Wang Xiao didn't need help. He was just a mere Nie Lin. If he couldn't even handle it, he wouldn't be qualified to be the Sect Master of Huaxing Gang.
"What happened just now? I heard that Zhou Xian came here and had a conflict with you." Elder Zhou asked.
"Nothing, just a small matter."
Wang Xiao did not tell Elder Zhou that the matter just now was all because of Xiao Yun. If he said so, Xiao Yun would definitely be punished by the family.
"I heard it was because of Xiao Yun." Elder Zhou said.
"No, it has nothing to do with Xiao Yun. It's my personal problem."
Wang Xiao knew very well that he had to bear all of this. He absolutely could not let Xiao Yun bear all of this alone because Xiao Yun was just an ordinary servant in Zhou Family. She did not have the ability to bear all of this.
If he took all the responsibility, even if the people of Zhou Family didn't help him, Wang Xiao would still have the ability to handle this matter. But if he didn't take responsibility for this matter, Xiao Yun's consequences would be unimaginable.
"Don't misunderstand me. I didn't mean that. I just want to know more about it so that I can give my wife an explanation when I get back." Elder Zhou said politely.
"After you go back, if Madam asks about this matter, just say that it is my responsibility alone. It has nothing to do with Xiao Yun. No one can make things difficult for her. Otherwise, it will be targeted at me." Wang Xiao said with a serious expression.
"Don't worry. I will definitely tell you the exact words I told you. But don't worry, this matter is not a big problem."
"Elder Zhou, you didn't come to find me just for this, right?" Wang Xiao asked.
"Of course not. I came here because I have something to tell you. I want you to be prepared." Elder Zhou said.
"What is it?" Wang Xiao asked.
"It's like this. According to Madam's plan, the family will hold a ceremony to acknowledge your ancestors and return to the family the day after tomorrow. When the time comes, there will be a feast. If you have any friends, you can call them over." Elder Zhou said to Wang Xiao.
"Okay, I understand." Wang Xiao nodded.
Wang Xiao could sense what his wife meant. In fact, his wife wanted him to befriend more people and have more friends to attend the event. The more friends they had, the higher their status in Zhou Family would be.
Although Wang Xiao didn't like to show off and didn't like to pay attention to these things, he was in the Zhou Family. Therefore, he decided to follow the custom. Living in such a big environment, one could only follow the environment. Otherwise, one wouldn't be able to survive.
"It's getting late," Wang Yao said. "Rest early. I have to go back. " I still have a lot of things to take care of tomorrow. " Elder Zhou turned around and left.
Wang Xiao personally sent Elder Zhou outside. In the entire Zhou Family, he didn't have many friends.
Zhou Elder Zhou was the only friend who could help him. The other members' relationship with him wasn't clear yet.
After Elder Zhou walked outside, he turned around and said to Wang Xiao, "Gang Master Wang, send them here. Go back and rest early. In the future, try to be more careful in the Zhou Family because behind you, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at you."
Wang Xiao's sudden return to the family posed a great threat to many people. Therefore, countless people in the family were watching him in secret. As long as Wang Xiao did something wrong, it would be magnified infinitely and exaggerated.
"Don't worry. I know. I will try my best to be careful in the future."
To be honest, Wang Xiao really did not like the life here. Ever since he came to the Zhou Family, he was not used to it and really wanted to go back.
He preferred the life of the king, but there were some things that he had to face. Since it would come sooner or later, he had to face it now. Escaping was not a solution. If he kept running away, he would only be laughed at by others.
After sending off Elder Zhou, Wang Xiao stood outside alone. Looking at the stars in the sky, his heart was heavy. He sighed helplessly.
He knew very well that... At this moment, the entire Zhou Family... There were so many pairs of eyes watching him in the dark, and they were hostile to him.
In terms of schemes and schemes, Wang Xiao preferred to use force to solve his problems. For example, he would use force to settle the grudge between him and Tavern Master.
However, this was his family, and this was the Zhou Family. In this place, using force could not solve everything.
Ta, ta, ta...
Just as Wang Xiao was standing outside with a heavy heart, he heard footsteps behind him. When he turned around, he saw Xiao Yun walking out of the room. It turned out that Xiao Yun was very grateful when she heard Wang Xiao and Elder Zhou's conversation.
Xiao Yun knew that Wang Xiao would bear all the responsibility for her, but she felt a faint sense of unease and guilt in her heart.
Because she could not give Wang Xiao anything, but Wang Xiao helped her time and time again. He was so good to her, but she did not know how to repay Wang Xiao in the future.
"Mr. Wang, I heard your conversation with Elder Zhou just now. Thank you. If it wasn't for your help, I would have been punished by my family. I don't even know how to repay you." Xiao Yun said.
"Xiao Yun, you don't need to thank me. In my heart, you are just like my sister. It is only right and proper for big brother to protect his sister." Wang Xiao said to Xiao Yun.
When Xiao Yun heard Wang Xiao's words, she felt even more disappointed and disappointed. Big brother protecting his sister, could it be that in Wang Xiao's heart, he really only treated her as his sister?
However, after a short period of disappointment, she saw through everything, because he knew very well. He was just a servant in the Zhou Family, he had no status at all.
"Don't think too much about it. This matter has nothing to do with you. Don't worry, everything will be fine." After comforting Xiao Yun, Wang Xiao returned to his room to rest.
The day after tomorrow would be the time for him to officially acknowledge his ancestors. The Zhou Family would hold a grand banquet. Wang Xiao planned to invite all of his friends, including his master, Gu Loong, the higher ups of the Huaxing Gang, Young Master Hua, Young Master Nie, and all of them. Wang Xiao planned to invite all of them.
Every family member of a big family like the Zhou Family cared a lot about their reputation. They would look down on their friends if the friends they invited were too shabby.
Wang Xiao didn't want to be ridiculed by his family. He wanted to let his family know that many of his friends had status.
Lying on the bed, Wang Xiao couldn't sleep. It wasn't because of the two things that happened today, but because of something else.
The first two things that happened tonight, although it was a little troublesome, he did not take it to heart. As for the second thing, he did not take it seriously at all. What he really worried about was Loong Yali.
He did not know when he would be able to see her. He did not know when he would be able to reunite with her and never be separated again.
This matter had always been what Wang Xiao cared about the most. It was also what made him feel the most helpless. Looking at the night sky outside the window, her figure kept appearing in Wang Xiao's mind. He recalled everything that had happened with her. All of their past experiences kept appearing in his mind. However, everything that had happened in the past had become the past. They would never be able to come back.1
There was a saying that was said very well. Only after losing it would one know how to cherish it.
Now that he had lost her, Wang Xiao cherished it even more. Unfortunately, he did not have the chance. If he had the chance, even if it was just a small chance, he would firmly grasp it.
Sigh!
After sighing, Wang Xiao decided to put all of this aside for the time being.
So what if he couldn't bear to part with it? What could he do now? What was left for him was endless sighs and helplessness.
Wang Xiao decided not to think about these things, because these things made him very upset. Unknowingly, Wang Xiao fell asleep.
Although Celestial Rank warriors rarely rested, because of their long life habits, he was used to it.
The next morning, Wang Xiao woke up very early. When he came to the main hall, he found Xiao Yun's room opened. After entering Xiao Yun's room, he found that Xiao Yun was not there and did not know where she went.
In the room. There was only Wang Xiao alone in the room. He felt a little bored and lonely. To be honest, ever since he came to the Zhou Family, only Xiao Yun was by his side and Wang Xiao felt happy. If it wasn't for Xiao Yun, he would feel very bored. Wang Xiao paced back and forth in the hall, but no one knew what he was going to do.
Xiao Yun was really something. Even if she wanted to leave, she should at least tell herself why she suddenly left without a sound.
Wang Xiao knew that Xiao Yun must have left because she had something to do. Otherwise, Xiao Yun would not have left him.
A few minutes later, Xiao Yun came back with breakfast.
It turned out that the reason Xiao Yun left was to bring breakfast to Wang Xiao.
"Mr. Wang, you're awake. Sorry, I didn't wake you up when I saw you were still asleep." Xiao Yun smiled.
As long as she was by Wang Xiao's side and could see Wang Xiao, Xiao Yun would feel very happy and happy. If she could be by Wang Xiao's side every day, it would be great if she could see Wang Xiao every day.
"Xiao Yun, thank you for your hard work." Wang Xiao said.
He knew that Xiao Yun had left because she had something to do. Sure enough, it turned out that Xiao Yun wanted to bring him breakfast.
"Mr. Wang, I don't have to work hard. As long as I can work for you, it will be my honor." Xiao Yun said these words from the bottom of her heart. She did not lie.
"Mr. Wang, quickly wash your face and brush your teeth. Then eat breakfast. After breakfast, if you feel bored, I will go out with you for a walk." Xiao Yun placed the sumptuous breakfast on the table and said to Wang Xiao.
