Chapter 41 – Testing
Xiao Hai stood in front of the car door. They had already arrived at the Xiao family some time ago, but Ye Zichen just refused to get out of the car.
“Lil’ Ye, get out.”
“You know that this is kidnapping, right?”
Ye Zichen refused to come out of the car with a tsundere-look. He had already said that he wouldn’t come, but Xiao Hai ended up just directly throwing him in the car and brought him here.
Is this the attitude they should have towards their savior?
He had saved the old man’s life. It’s fine if they’re not courteous, but they actually used violence against him.
Even a mud doll would get mad.
“Hehe, I had heard that Lil’ Ye came.”
A clear laughter sounded out from outside the door. Xiao Hai turned around in surprise.
“Grandpa, why did you come out?”
The old man walked towards the car.
Ye Zichen, who had been lying in the car like a big boss also sat up. It was fine for him to put on an air in front of Xiao Hai, since they were of the same generation.
He didn’t dare to do it in front of the old man of the Xiao family.
“Old Man Xiao.”
Ye Zichen stood respectfully in front of the old man. Old Man Xiao chuckled.
“So this is Lil’ Ye. Not bad, he looks talented.”
“Old Man exaggerated his praise.”
Ye Zichen replied courteously.
“Haha, don’t be so courteous. You saved my life, so you are my savior,” Old Man Xiao chuckled brightly. “Since you came, then come inside.”
This was the second time Ye Zichen had come to the Xiao family home.
Even so, he couldn’t help but be shocked about how luxurious the Xiao family was.
It had a huge courtyard, which was the size of the mansion he had bought.
After entering the living room of the mansion, he saw a pot of Longjing Tea on the tea table with three tea cups.
“Sit.”
Old Man Xiao pointed to a seat on the sofa, signalling Ye Zichen to sit down.
“Lil’ Ye, to be truthful, Old Man, I, really am thankful towards you. I had thought that I would have to spend the rest of my life on a sickbed. I didn’t think that…”
Old Man Xiao’s tone was full of feelings. Ye Zichen was only able to smile awkwardly in response.
He really didn’t know how to handle this sort of elder, who had lived for a long time.
Xiao Hai, who was extremely mighty on the outside, also sat beside Ye Zichen like an obedient child, not daring to even utter a single world.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the living room seemed a bit awkward.
“Lil’ Ye.”
“Yes!” Ye Zichen immediately sat straight.
“I heard Lil’ Hai say that the pill you saved me was a pill called the Great Recovery Pill,” When Old Man Xiao mentioned this, a light flashed across his eyes.
“Yes,” Ye Zichen nodded.
“I wonder Lil’ Ye’s parents…” Old Man Xiao said, then shook his head with a smile. “Sorry, Old Man, I, asked too much. This is Lil’ Ye’s secret. I have no right to pry.”
“Hehe…” Ye Zichen chuckled dumbly. For some reason, he felt like this old fellow was not as harmless as he seemed.
To be fair, how could someone that could establish such a large corporation be a normal person?
“Lil’ Ye, I wonder if you still have any more of that pill?”
Old Man Xiao spoke up once again. When Ye Zichen heard that, he instantly tensed up.
“Don’t think too much. I just want to ask my old friend for medicine. He’s about the same as me, he has quite a bit of issues since he’s old.”
“Old Man, pardon my helplessness.”
Ye Zichen revealed a helpless smile. He did have more Great Recovery Pills on hand, but he wasn’t an idiot.
This old fellow clearly felt something unusual. If say anything idiotically at the time, he was unsure of what might happen.
Chief Liu had asked him weirdly before, whether he was someone from there!
