Chapter 375: Fan Ling’s Family (2) (1/2)
To be able to gather so many experts to serve their family and gain their loyalty… it was not an easy matter. Lin Xiao knew that if a cultivator wanted to join another family and served them, it meant that they also needed to abandon their previous identity and completely accepted their newfound identity.
It was not an easy thing to do.
After all, many people would not easily switch their surname easily. It was an identity that they didn't want to abandon if they didn't have significant reward.
”I see.”
Fan Ling swaggered into the residence. The servants all bowed when they saw the young miss and naturally made way for her. In this residence, it was clear that Fan Ling was respected and would not be slighted in the slightest bit.
But she was not the only one.
”Oh, the little princess is back.”
The voice of a youth attracted their attention. Lin Xiao could see a young man around 20 or so years old stood not far from them. He was tall and had long hair that was tied neatly to form a bun on his back. Smiling lightly, he gave off the image of a scholar to the people who saw him.
But of course, the four of them knew that he was a cultivator based on the aura he gave off.
”Fan Pei, what are you doing here?” Fan Ling asked with a scowl.
Fan Pei, the youth, looked at Fan Ling with an arched eyebrow. He laughed faintly. ”Since you can take a break, why can't I?”
Fan Ling growled and turned to walk from the other side. However, Fan Pei swiftly moved and blocked her route.
”Fan Pei, what do you want?”
”To just leave when you see my face, is not good, isn't it?” Fan Pei let out a faint laugh. ”Big Bro left you a present for when you return. Don't forget to take a look at it.”
”I don't want anything from you.” Fan Ling was prepared to take out her fan in order to kick Fan Pei out of the way.
Fan Pei swiftly moved to the side and waved his hand. ”Don't be so feisty, Second Sister, you're only going to make things hard for your brother.”
”You're not my brother,” Fan Ling spat out before she walked away. Her expression was clearly dark.
Lin Xiao turned to look at Lu Jian but the latter merely shook his head while shrugging his shoulder. It was a clear indication that Lu Jian knew things would be like this but he didn't have any other way to solve it. It was personal matter inside Fan Family that he naturally couldn't get involved in.
Understanding that, Lin Xiao sighed.
The condition of Lu Family and Fan Family was the complete opposite.
