Chapter 222: Which Fu Ronglan
Chapter 222 Which Fu Ronglan
Since Xiao Jiuhan brought Ju Ling Pill back, he thought about his excuses.
She helped Mr. Xiao to sit down, and said without hesitation: "You guessed it right, Fu Ronglan did indeed give me these spirit gathering pills."
Master Xiao was taken aback for a moment.
He hasn't said anything yet, how could he guess right?
Half a second later—
"..." Mr. Xiao couldn't sit still, almost slipped off the sofa, and asked with a trembling voice, "Who?"
Xiao Jiuhan saw that the old man was sitting firmly and did not really slip on the ground, so he said calmly, "Fu Ronglan."
"Fu..." Xiao Guyuan's throat choked up, and he moved his lips, but he didn't dare to call out his full name after all.
But he saw that his grandson just called his name by his full name, as if he was just an ordinary passer-by, Jia B B Ding Ding.
"Which Fu Ronglan?"
Could it be the same name and surname?
But he remembered that when he was a child, when he was still in Xiaocheng, he heard an unknown source, saying that whoever joined the WTO and his name was registered in household registration, the household registration systems of all countries in the world will automatically count people with the same name. It is mandatory to change the name, and there will never be a situation where the name is duplicated. Is it a rumor?
Xiao Jiuhan didn't answer.
Mere Fu Ronglan, a shameless person with unknown sexual orientation, loves to stalk, and loves to crawl on the bed in the middle of the night, is it necessary to be like this?
"He is interested in Jiang Yan. I promise that he will not have anything to do with Jiang Yan in the future. He promised to cooperate with our Xiao family and give appropriate help. These Juling Pills are a meeting gift for partners from the Fu family. I have no reason reject."
"Jiang Yan?"
Master Xiao didn't expect that this matter would be related to the Jiang family. The shock just now faded away, replaced by sullenness.
"Even if he has all eyes and hands, it would be too deceitful to make such a request!"
Even though the marriage contract between Jiang and Xiao's family has already been cancelled, such a request is tantamount to humiliating Xiao Jiuhan.
Xiao Jiuhan tilted his face indiscriminately. It was really her helpless move to lie to grandpa with half truth and half falsehood.
"Grandpa, you don't need to be angry. This is not what Fu Ronglan asked for, but I proposed it on my own initiative." Xiao Jiuhan said solemnly, "The engagement has been cancelled, and Jiang Yan is of no importance. Since Fu Ronglan is interested in her, I will make him a promise. There is no loss to our Xiao family, and in exchange for the opportunity to cooperate with the Fu family, why not?"
Master Xiao looked at her worriedly: "But you..."
"If I mind, I won't mention it."
Xiao Jiuhan's indifferent expression when he said this made Mr. Xiao feel cold in his heart for no reason.
This kid, since when did he become so...
Xiao Guyuan doesn't know how to describe it. It's like a person who ignores his own feelings, is cruel to himself, and is so rational that he is cold, but his filial piety to his grandfather and his care for his family are real.
Old man Xiao settled his heavy thoughts and said, "Since you said that, then grandpa will not stop you, but no matter how I think about it, I feel that it is impossible for that person to agree to cooperate with us because of Jiang Yan's matter."
"What are you worried about?" Xiao Jiuhan asked.
She wanted to know Mr. Xiao's understanding of the current situation.
Master Xiao said: "I'm worried about what the Fu family wants to use our Xiao family to do, or..."
The old man's expression suddenly became more dignified, his eyes far away.
"Maybe, something big is going to happen in Lingyu." After a long pause, Mr. Xiao continued, "Maybe the Fu family wants to act first and integrate all the scattered forces in Lingyu to deal with future crises."
