Chapter 22 Visitor from the Lan House” (2/2)
Unlike back when they were young, Bai Xiao didn’t continue to distance himself from the Lan House during these six years, rather he would often visit their grandmother daily.
“Okay, let’s do that,” Bai Yan nodded.
As coincidental as it seems, just when they are about to head for the other place, the Lan House too sent a person over after getting wind of Bai Yan’s return.
At this very moment, an old granny sits in the main hall of the residence. Gently placing the teacup down, she spoke: “My old madam is after all her maternal grandmother, are you people so shameless that you are going to stop their reunion?”
Stern and strong in her voice, the old granny’s statement causes Bai Zheng Xiang to gently furrow his brow.
Truthfully, it’s as the old woman said. He does not want his children to mingle with the Lan House too much, or at all for that matter. Because of this issue, he had had beaten Bai Xiao once before for visiting that side on a daily premise a while ago!
“Bai Yan has just return, I fear she won’t be able to leave with you for…” Before he could even finish his last word, the magnificent figure in question had waltz into the hall, pushing whatever he wanted to say back down his throat. This obviously left Bai Zheng Xiang in a very embarrassing position.
“You were sent by our grandmother to pick me up? If so, then let us go. I wouldn’t want her to wait.”
As if not seeing her father’s very existence, Bai Yan bypasses the man and walks up to the old granny’s side, startling the old woman in the process.
This wasn’t the first time this old granny of the Lan House had come to pick up the girl, but every time in the past she was firmly rejected unlike today. So why the sudden change of heart?
“Bai Yan!” Bai Zheng Xiang flew into a fit of rage, “don’t forget, a married daughter is a splashed-out water. Your mother married me so she is my wife! And you and Bai Xiao are of my blood, making the Lan House outsiders you hear?! Without my permission, you’re not going anywhere!”
