Chapter 1546: Wenren Clan (2/2)

The woman continued her silent act.

Li Qiye was just smiling like always. The earthly scene and energy might seem like a transcending realm for mortals but in his eyes, this was only a minor abode.

Wenren Jians.h.i.+ let the rest stay outside while he came in alone.

The woman quietly told Li Qiye: “Before actually entering the mansion, you should escape now. This is your last chance.”

“Why?” To which he responded: “Getting a beautiful wife and a cute daughter on top of an influential father-in-law out of thin air, that’s a good thing like a pie falling down from the sky. People would kill for this luck so how could I refuse it?”

“You…” She stared at Li Qiye, wondering about his true intention. In the end, she coldly said: “You should know what kind of existence the Wenren Clan is.”

“No idea.” He bluntly answered. In fact, he really didn’t know and didn’t need to know at all. It wasn’t necessary to investigate a little clan.

After some time, Wenren Jians.h.i.+ came back and told the woman: “Father wishes to see you.”

She took a deep breath and took the girl’s arm. However, Jians.h.i.+ stopped her and said seriously: “Sis, it’s not wise to let father see her right now, that’s fanning the fire. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure nothing happens to her.”

After hesitating for a bit, she eventually nodded and left the girl to enter alone.

The girl wasn’t afraid of people. She looked at Jians.h.i.+ and asked: “Does grandpa have horns and wings and a long neck like a bad guy?”

The experts here had black lines running through their forehead. Wenren Jians.h.i.+ didn’t know whether to laugh or cry either.

He squatted down and told the girl earnestly: “Grandpa isn’t a bad guy. It’s just that he doesn’t have a choice in some matters…”

“If he’s not a bad guy, why does he want to separate mama and papa?” The girl hastily complained.

“You will understand when you grow up.” Jians.h.i.+ rubbed her head and smiled: “Your father and mother also understand his predicament.”

Having said that, Jians.h.i.+ continued: “Tell your uncle, what’s your father’s name?”

The girl blinked and circled back to hold onto Li Qiye’s thigh: “This is my papa!”

Li Qiye said with a faint smile: “It’s not that easy to trick this girl.”

Jians.h.i.+ rubbed her head more and smiled wryly: “A clever child, like her mother. Unfortunately, clever people sometimes do foolish things.”

Li Qiye said casually: “I’m tired. There must be an area for guests to rest?”

Jians.h.i.+ gave him a strange stare and was full of curiosity at his leisure att.i.tude. This guy was acting as if this was his own home.

“Accommodate the young n.o.ble, do not be impolite to our guest.” Jians.h.i.+ told one of the experts nearby.

Li Qiye smiled casually and followed the expert without commenting.

They prepared a place for him. Of course, he was separated from the mother and daughter.

Despite being a guest, he wasn’t that far off from being a prisoner and always had people following him. They did follow Jians.h.i.+’s order and didn’t make it difficult for him.

After settling down, he treated this place as his own home and took his time relaxing. He seemed very comfortable taking a stroll everywhere.

The clan’s disciples followed him but didn’t stop him from wandering since they didn’t see any intent on escaping from him.

Not long later, Wenren Jians.h.i.+ came by and saw Li Qiye in the garden. He smiled wryly at this guy appearing out of nowhere and acting as if he was the boss.

“Looks like you are used to this place now. I am relieved.” He came forward and said with a smile.
