Chapter 43 - 43. The Reason (1/2)

Third person POV

After getting their kiss, Xu Tingfeng asked Xu Yingjie.

Xu Tingfeng: ” So how can big bro knew who the culprit is?”

Xu Yingjie: ” It is that useless prime minister. He came here first before he went to that guild.”

Xu Yongzheng: ” Humph! They can't compare to our Spider Lily. They are so scared of Xu's family elite forces and tried to destroy it by hiring us. But they don't know that we are the elite forces.”

Xu Yingjie: ” So what are you gonna do to him?”

Xu Tingfeng: ” Better to keep him alive. Surround that sc.u.mbag ( The emperor) with useless people, it will be easier to crush him.”

Xu Yingjie: ” Uhm.”

Hong er tried to connect all what they said but she still didn't understand how can Xu Yingjie and Xu Yongzheng still alive. And how can they secretly built Spider Lily? Xu Yingjie noticed Hong er's confused expression.

Xu Yingjie: ” Curious?”

He asked Hong er. Hong er looked up and nodded her head. Xu Yingjie sat down on a chair, he lifted Hong er up and put her on his lap.

Xu Yingjie: ” Actually, It is not that complicated. I was once a great general like your dad, but I hate communicating and talk rubbish, especially with those rat officials. So in one battlefield, I fought with Wang Guizhi's brother. Both of us was badly injured, it caused the scar on my left eye here. So I just made it like he stabbed my head and I died. I prefer the secluded life like these. We trained our elite forces here and earned some money as an assassin guild.”

Hong er earnestly listened to Xu Yingjie's explanation, but she was still confused Xu Yongzheng's death because in the family book, Xu Yongzheng disappeared when he was on a mission. No one could find him as they didn't really know his face. Even though Xu Yongzheng was very playful, he never went out fron the Xu's residence as he always trained with his brothers. Making it easier to fake Xu Yongzheng's death.

Xu Yongzheng: ” My story is unexpectedly more complicated than big bro's, yknow. When second elder brother brought Saozi ( elder brother's wife) to our home, he brought Wang ge ( Wang Guizhi) and his fiancée ( Lin Zhenxin) too. Yue er ( Lin Yingyue) followed them too as she was a close friend with Saozi.

But she played hard to get, I met her for the second time when she almost died in a forest. That time I was on a mission to find big bro's main base. I helped her and brought her to here, mah~ after that I kept chasing her heart and I didn't realize that 2 years had gone by. The situation in capital got tense as the new emperor ascended. The new emperor tried to eliminate Xu family, so they just told me to stay here from then on. They faked my death and that's how I died. Ahahahaha.”

Xu Yongzheng laughed out loud, he was really proud of his story as Xu Yongzheng's story really was more complicated than Xu Yingjie's. Hong er was dumbfounded by the reason of their death. She wanted to puke blood when she heard Xu Yongzheng's story.

Hong er: ' Now, the last mystery, how can they don't have golden eyes?'

Xu Yingjie: ” Are you curious about our eyes?”

Hong er widened her eyes in surprise, ' Can Bo Bo read people's mind?'
