Chapter 152: Mysterious Beast vs. Mysterious Beast! (2)
"And..." the housekeeper hesitated for a while, and finally continued, "The relationship between the Ninth Young Master and the Thirteenth Young Master in the academy does not seem to be very harmonious!"
"I thought that if I drove Xiao Yao out of the Xiao Mansion, they would restrain themselves, but I didn't expect that Wen Luo would be so intolerable at such a young age!" Xiao Jiuzhong frowned when he heard this, and placed the cup heavily on the table.
, there was unconcealable anger on his face, "Based on his mind, isn't it enough that I leave him this huge family property?!"
The air in his chest was churning, and Xiao Jiuzhong couldn't help coughing.
"Master, don't be angry!" The old housekeeper hurried over and patted him on the back, "Now you are the only one supporting the Xiao family, you must protect your health!"
Trying to suppress the surging blood in his chest, Xiao Jiuzhong took a long breath and took another sip of the ginseng tea sent by the housekeeper. Only then could he suppress his cough and said, "Go and invite the young lady!"
"Yes!" the old housekeeper agreed, turned and left.
Not long after, he heard soft footsteps, and the eldest young lady Zhou walked in behind him.
"Father, are you looking for me?!" Stopping respectfully in the hall, Mr. Zhou bowed and saluted Xiao Jiuchong.
Xiao Jiuzhong waved his hand gently, and the housekeeper immediately exited the room, closed the door tightly, raised his face, and stared at his daughter-in-law in the hall. Xiao Jiuzhong's eyes gradually turned cold, "Did you let out the news about Xiao Yao?!"
"Xiao Yao?!" Ms. Zhou was shocked, but she pretended to be ignorant on her face, "Father, my daughter-in-law can't understand your words. What news?!"
"If you hadn't released the news, Chu Wentian would have gone to Qianqiu College to challenge Xiao Yao!" Xiao Jiuzhong frowned, "I have already kicked her out of the Xiao family, and all the properties of the Xiao family will belong to Wen Luo in the future. Do you think
Mother and son are still not satisfied?!"
"My daughter-in-law cannot understand your words any more!" The young lady continued to pretend to be stupid.
Snap!
Xiao Jiuzhong slapped his palm on the desk, causing the yellow pear wood desk to split into half. The papers and pens on the desk fell to the floor, and the freshly ground ink even splashed all over Zhou's body and face.
Zhou was shocked, her pretty face suddenly turned pale, but she stood there, not daring to move.
"No matter what, she is a descendant of the Xiao family. If I hear you targeting her in the mother-son room again, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Xiao Jiuzhong snorted coldly, "Okay, you can go back!"
"Yes!" Mrs. Zhou agreed tremblingly, turned around and walked out of the study door as if running away.
The housekeeper was busy walking in and picking up the scattered documents on the floor, but Xiao Jiuzhong coughed again, feeling a kind of blood boiling up, and he hurriedly raised his hand to cover his lips.
"Master!" Noticing the shreds of meat spilling out from his fingers, the housekeeper Lao Cheng's face changed color in shock, and he rushed over to hold his arm, "Sit down quickly, sit over here, I'll send someone to look for you right away.
Here comes the doctor!"
"No need!" Xiao Jiuzhong took out the handkerchief and wiped the blood on the corners of his lips and palms, "I just accidentally reversed the qi and blood when I got up in the morning to practice. It's okay!"
"Master?!" The housekeeper Lao Cheng wanted to persuade him again.
"Old Cheng!" Xiao Jiuzhong persuaded Mei to stop him, "Do you really not understand what will happen if this news gets out at this time?!"
"But!" Lao Cheng froze on the spot, his cloudy eyes showing distress, "If you endure it like this, how can your body bear it?!"
"Don't worry, I can't die!" Xiao Jiuzhong sat up straight, with a look of determination on his face, "Now is a critical moment for the Chu Kingdom and the Xiao family. You must keep this matter a secret!"
Lao Cheng raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes and nodded gently, "I know!"
