Chapter 699: Eavesdropping
Translator: Vesper
In the beginning, many people didn’t believe him, but after the few tribesmen who had a good relationship with Xiao Si chimed in, many people started to believe.
”All of you are saying nonsense,” When everyone began talking about Ning Meng Yao and her husband, a young lady stood up and glared angrily at those gossipers.
”Xiao Cao, why are you so agitated?” The person talking asked in astonishment after seeing the young lady acting that way.
The young lady glanced at them, she gritted her teeth and said: “Elder Sister Ning is not like how you all described her to be, she and Elder Brother Qiao are really good to us. They give us delicious food, tell us stories, and even teach us to read when they have nothing to do. If possible, I really wish Elder Sister Ning could keep staying with us.”
”That’s right, Elder Sister Ning is very good, she’s not like what you all say.”
The children by the side began chiming in one after another.
If Xiao Cao was the only one saying that, they would feel Ning Meng Yao had helped her before, that was why she would say such words. But all the children present were saying such things, it proved what Xiao Cao said was true. Some people smiled as they touched their own noses. They murmured something, and no longer talked about it.
Failing to achieve the desired effect caused Xiao Si to feel dissatisfied.
”Yao Yao, how long are you planning to carry on like this?” They had been staying here for long enough, it was time to leave. Since the people here didn’t welcome them, it was best for them to leave.
”You’re right,” Ning Meng Yao had her own considerations, after being away for so many days, she wanted to take a look at the unconscious Xiao Cheng Ya.
Just when Xiao Si planned to find Ning Meng Yao, the latter came to his house first.
”What are you all doing here?” Xiao Si didn’t have the slightest good intention towards Ning Meng Yao.
Ning Meng Yao glanced at Xiao Si. She pulled Qiao Tian Chang’s hand and both of them entered the house, ignoring Xiao Si.
Xiao Si clenched his fists, nobody ignored him like this ever since he had gained enough power outside.
”Uncle Ren, we’re planning on leaving,” After seeing Xiao Ren, Ning Meng Yao did not plan to hide their intentions and directly said.
Xiao Ren chuckled: “I knew you all would not be staying here for too long, but young miss, don’t you worry, you can take over everything here at any moment. Also, I’m really sorry,” If not of Ning Meng Yao’s distrust that made him investigate his own tribesmen, he might now know that there were many people who were paying him lip service.
Indeed, such the world outside was too attractive, how could they not feel moved?
Authority, status, wealth, all of it was enough for them to betray their ancestor’s teachings as they completely indulged in it.
”This has nothing to do with you.”
Xiao Ren shook his head with a bitter smile: “Young miss, this is my fault for neglecting my duty, but......” Just when Xiao Ren was about to continue talking, he suddenly stopped and looked towards the door.
Ning Meng Yao followed Xiao Ren’s line of sight and looked over, there was a cold flicker in her eyes, it seemed someone was really seeking death.
Xiao Ren inhaled a deep breath and walked to the door, he immediately pulled open the door and saw Xiao Si, who was eavesdropping at the door: “Did you learn this bad habit of eavesdropping on other people’s conversation when you were outside?”
Xiao Si initially felt embarrassed for being caught, but he was instantly furious after hearing Xiao Ren’s words: “This is my own home, how can it be called eavesdropping?” He was openly listening in.
Xiao Ren smiled at his shamelessness: “Good, this is your home. Young miss, let’s talk at your place.”
”En,” Ning Meng Yao glanced at Xiao Si with unknown intent, there seemed to be mockery in her gaze.
Xiao Si’s expression became pale under Ning Meng Yao’s unknown gaze. The thoughts in his heart seemed to have been seen through like an open book in front of Ning Meng Yao.
