”Go ahead.”

”Does Xiao Meng Han's body have some kind of chronic disease?” Xuan Peng didn't say anything. He looked at Yang Ziying's pale face, and he was even more sure of his guess. He clenched his hand into a fist and asked the following question in a single breath: ”Is it because of this chronic disease that his hair turned white? And this is a genetic disease?”

”Xuan Peng, you have to be responsible for what you say. The Xiao family is not a family that you can set up and question. I reserve the right to pursue your words.” Yang Ziying's voice was a little shrill as she tried her best to raise her chin.

This was a war. Even though there was no smoke, it was still an extremely dangerous war. If the Xiao family was careless, they would be annihilated. However, they didn't expect this war to start from Xuan Peng's side.

Yang Ziying's angry tone would have intimidated any ordinary person.

But Xuan Peng wasn't. He had always been a steady man when it came to things. His perception and meticulous thoughts allowed him to see Yang Ziying's fearful heart from the bluff deep within his eyes.

”Madam Xiao, I do not wish to hurt Xiao Ran, nor will I harm the child she dotes on. I do not have any ill intentions, I only wish to remind Madam Xiao that the Xiao family should not bully Xiao Ran too much. If Xiao Menghan uses her as a shield for some reason, I will not let him off.”

She gritted her teeth as she stared at Xuan Peng, who was walking toward the Xiao Yan. She sighed to herself that her son's rival in love was still very strong. Even at this time, he still wouldn't let go and speak harshly to the Xiao family.

Yang Ziying did not rush to follow her and instead called Xiao Yuelin.

At this moment, she was very strong and needed her husband's words to calm her down. However, Xiao Yuelin didn't pick up the phone.

Yang Ziying took a deep breath. She knew that Xiao Yuelin also had a lot to do. He had not slept a wink last night.

Yang Ziying hung up the phone and lowered her head in thought. She felt a lot more at ease.

If Xuan Peng really wanted to uncover the secret of the Xiao family, he probably wouldn't have brought Mo Xiaoxiao here. As long as Xuan Peng valued Mo Xiao, he wouldn't have troubled the Xiao family for the time being.

Xuan Peng had his own unspeakable secrets, and Liang Heyuan was not a good person either. He knew that the twin sisters would add fuel to the fire when they returned.

Furthermore, Liang Heyuan was not a good person either. He did not know where he came from.

Since Xuan Peng had put Jing Xiaoxiao here, Qin Lie felt a bit more at ease.

The lunch was made by Qiu Hong. Her cooking skills were very good. She ate two veggies and had a very satisfying meal. After the meal, Qiu Hong was going to take her to nap.

However, Jing Xiaoxiao slipped out ahead of time and ran to the fountain, staring at it.

”Xiao Yan?” As Xuan Peng walked behind him, he noticed that the look in his eyes had changed. There was an unfathomable glint in her previously sincere and ignorant eyes.

Mo Xiaoxiao looked at the fountain in a daze as if she hadn't heard Xuan Peng's voice.

It was only when Xuan Peng walked in front of her and blocked her line of sight to the fountain that he finally looked at Xuan Peng passively.

She remembered Xuan Peng. She remembered that he was the man she had once loved, and she also remembered that they had become Qiu Hong's foster son. They were siblings now, and what she was looking for was the memory she had missed.

Qiu Hong and Yang Ziying were chatting as they held teacups, when suddenly, a figure of Jing Xiaoxiao appeared in their line of sight, then quickly disappeared.

Yang Ziying was the first to stand up. Something was wrong with her expression. Yang Ziying clenched her teacup tightly, faintly expecting the result she wanted.

”Madam Xiao, did you bring Xiao Budian here to stimulate her memories?” Xuan Peng looked at Yang Ziying and suddenly understood something.
