"Colonel Si, we didn't mean that!" The two at the door saluted in unison and said in chorus.
Upon hearing them address Si Mo as Colonel Si, Xia Yiwan was surprised and raised her head.
"If you dare not, retreat!" Si Mo spoke before stepping forward.
"We are sorry Colonel! This is an order from the commander, we have to execute it!"
Si Mo's aura flares for an instant, and he pulls Xia Yiwan behind him.
Noticing that Si Mo intended to act, Xia Yiwan grew anxious and quickly grabbed his hand: "I will go out and wait for you first, you have a good talk with your grandfather."
Si Mo turned to look at her, finding a clear plea in the depths of Xia Yiwan's translucent eyes.
Don't fall out with your grandfather because of me.
Si Mo understood her eyes in an instant. He gradually retracted his aura, finally, he raised his hand and patted her head: "Stay downstairs and wait for me, I'll be back soon."
Xia Yiwan responded with a nod and walked towards the door.
