Chapter 742 - The Dragon Court Compound (1/2)
Gao Ge didn’t expect that Heaven Dragon should take him here.
Yet, it is understandable.
There is no safer place than here in Huaxia.
Looking at the four glistening words in the sun, Gao Ge can’t help reading them.
“The Dragon Court Compound?”
Heaven Dragon laughs and says, “Enough with muttering. Come with me.”
“Okay.”
Following behind Heaven Dragon, Gao Ge enters the Dragon Court Compound and suddenly feels nervous.
Gao Ge also figures out why Heaven Dragon refuses to let Xia Lu come along. After all, Meng Jing’s parents also live in the Dragon Court Compound. If they see Xia Lu, things will become complicated. Although Gao Ge doesn’t mean to conceal anything deliberately, he can’t upset Meng Jing’s parents.
Actually, he hasn’t seen his parents for a long time.
Therefore, Gao Ge inevitably feels afraid when he is about to meet them.
When he gets to see his parents, his father is playing chess with Meng Jing’s father under a tree.
“In the Dragon Court Compound, someone will take care of them specially and no one will restrict their freedom. However, neither your parents nor Meng Jing’s parents like going out,” Heaven Dragon says.
Gao Ge nods his head.
He knows his parents best.
His idleness is probably inherited from his parents.
Currently, Meng Jing’s father is dealing with the chess game with Gao Ming attentively. They are stubborn chess players. Neither of them will admit defeat easily nor accept a draw in the game. They both seem to think they will be sure to win.
Gao Ge has seen such a scene many times since childhood and it can last several hours. Hence, he can’t help doubting whether one will be too idle when he grows up.
Afterward, Gao Ge gradually understands. Actually, Gao Ming and Meng Jing’s father are only chatting together and reminiscing about the past. They can keep talking about it forever once they start talking. Lots of the stories have been heard by Gao Ge more than ten times. Therefore, whether to win or not is no more important. It is a great thing to have a sincere friend around their age.
“Dad, why don’t you admit defeat?” Gao Ge says.
“Nonsense. I’m about to win… Erk?” Gao Ming turns around. Meng Jing’s father also raises his head. They are both surprised to see Gao Ge.
“Why are you here?” Meng Jing’s father asks curiously. While speaking, he looks around obviously to search for something. He says nothing but Gao Ge knows what he is searching for.
He coughs and says, “Uncle Meng, Meng Jing is still executing some tasks. She doesn’t come this time but she will be back in some time.”
Meng Jing’s father nods and says nothing.
