Xiao Yulong's words made Xiao Lie's whole body tremble, and his eyes suddenly contracted, and his whole body stood there.
Looking at Xiao Yulong's sinister sneer, he didn't understand. His whisper in front of his son Xiao Ying's tomb that day... was all heard by him!
Xiao Yulong's words suddenly exploded at the scene. Everyone opened their mouths and looked at Xiao Lie. When they saw Xiao Lie's unusual reaction, the surprise in people's hearts was suddenly magnified several times, and the voice of discussion was also louder.
Xiao Che was completely stunned. When he noticed Xiao Lie's reaction, he was stunned. Xiao Lingxi also had a dull expression and looked at Xiao Lie in a daze.
"Yulong! What's going on?" Xiao Yunhai frowned and asked in a low voice.
Xiao Yulong turned sideways and said respectfully, "Go back to my father. A few days ago, when I went to the back mountain cemetery to worship my ancestors, I happened to meet five elders. At that time, he was standing in front of the tombstone of his son Xiao Ying, saying something to himself... The child heard it very clearly. He was saying... Xiao Che was not Xiao Ying's biological son at all!"
From Xiao Yulong's words and Xiao Lie's reaction just now, people vaguely guessed this fact, but at this time, Xiao Yulong said it extremely bluntly, as if he was blowing a thunder out of thin air. Everyone in Xiaomen was completely stunned, and those who were familiar with and had good friends with Xiao Lie's eyes widened and their faces were full of disbelief.
"This..." Xiao Yunhai also looked surprised and immediately said seriously, "Yulong! This is a blood-related event. Don't talk nonsense!!"
Xiao Yulong said with a straight face, "Of course, the child dares not say anything about such a big thing. What is the truth? Ask the five elders... Five elders, I think you have heard what I just said. If you have a good conscience and Xiao Che is really your own grandson, do you dare to swear by all the glory of your son Xiao Ying's death?
All eyes were focused on Xiao Lie. He was frozen there, and his expression became more and more bitter. For a long time, he did not speak or defend... His son Xiao Ying was the greatest pride of his life. Even if he died, he could not swear at the cost of all the glory of Xiao Ying's life.
Xiao Che opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything at all. In his chest, a heavy sense of depression quickly spread all over his body.
"Dad, how can Xiao Che not be your own grandson... Dad, speak quickly and tell them quickly!" Xiao Lingxi shook Xiao Lie's body hard and shouted in fear.
But Xiao Lie's whole body was like petrified, and he didn't say a word for a long time. His face quietly became decadent, and his whole body seemed to be a teenager in a blink of an eye.
"Five elders, what's going on? Is what Yulong said true? Xiao Yunhai frowned and said to Xiao Lie excitedly.
Xiao Lie slowly raised his head and gasped deeply. Xiao Yulong forced him to swear by his son Xiao Ying... This is something he can't do under any circumstances. Well, this matter that he has concealed for 16 years is doomed to be unable to hide it anymore. He thought that this matter would be hidden for a lifetime until the day of his death, but he didn't expect that he would be ruthlessly torn apart in front of so many people on such an occasion that he could never expect.
Xiao Lie's appearance is already acquiescence. Otherwise, he could swear without scruples to seal Xiao Yulong's mouth. All the people in Xiaomen are stunned. Even Xia Qingyue was surprised. Xia Hongyi, who has been standing on the periphery silently, looks shocked... Isn't Xiao Che Xiao Ying's son? How can it be... like this!!
"Grandpa..."
Xiao Che walked in front of Xiao Lie, and every step was extremely heavy. Looking at his cheeks, which seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, Xiao Che's heart was sour. He tried his best to keep calm and asked in a very soft voice, "Grandpa... will this be... really?"
Xiao Lie's head hung down and looked at Xiao Che. He smiled bitterly, and in his turbid eyes, there was a kind of complexity that Xiao Che could not see clearly: "Although you are not my own child, over the years, I have always regarded your own grandson..."
The previous silence was acquiescence, so this sentence is clearly recognized by everyone!
Xiaomen suddenly exploded. This is undoubtedly the most explosive news they have heard in Xiaomen for so many years.
Xiao Che stayed there without a sound for a long time, as if he had lost his soul. And Xiao Lingxi was also dumbfounded. She shook her head hard and shouted excitedly at Xiao Lie, "Dad! What are you talking about... Xiao Che grew up with me and is the biological son of my brother Xiao Ying. How can he not be your own grandson... You must be joking... Right!?"A hand reached over and grabbed Xiao Lingxi's hand. Xiao Che's face had returned to normal at this time. He looked at Xiao Lingxi with a light smile on his face and shook his head gently: "It doesn't matter, auntie. Grandpa has always been my grandfather, and you have always been my little aunt. We have always been the closest relatives. Whether there is a blood relationship or not, our relationship will not change... So, is it really important whether it is a biological child?
"Xiao Che..." Xiao Lingxi's eyes suddenly became hazy.
On the other side, several mad dogs that suddenly caught Xiao Lie's huge "handle" have barked wildly.
"It's ridiculous! There is no reason! The descendant of Xiaomen, who has been raised for 16 years, is not my own child, but a wild species with the blood of the outer door... This is simply the biggest joke in the history of Xiaomen!" Elder Xiao Li roared angrily.
"Xiao Lie! You actually brought a wild seed to our Xiaomen, so that Xiaomen has been cultivated for 16 years! You are letting us... how do you say it! Alas!" The three elders, Xiao Ze, sighed heavily.
"I knew it was a wild species, but I left him in Xiaomen to enjoy the treatment of the grandson of the elders! Xiao Lie, you actually deceived us for 16 years. If you hadn't been lucky enough to be found by Yulong, you might have been deceived by you for the rest of your life. At that time, the blood of Xiaomen's descendants will be mixed into the blood of outsiders! Xiao Lie, do you know how much sin this is!" The four elders Xiao Cheng pointed to Xiao Lie, and the old man's excited face turned red.
Second elder Xiao Bo cursed, "It's no wonder that the descendants of Xiaomen have good talents, but suddenly there is such a broken waste of mysterious veins! It turns out that Xiaomen, who has been raised for 16 years, is actually a wild species! If this is going to spread, our Xiaomen will not become the laughingstock of Liuyun City!"
Not only the four elders, but also the middle-aged generation, the deacons and general managers belonging to the four elders also stood up one after another and criticized Xiao Lie mercilessly. For a moment, Xiao Lie completely became the target of public criticism.
"Five elders, you...this...alas!" After Xiao Yunhai's face changed, he gave a long sigh.
"Ha ha, it really made me witness a very funny show. It's not easy to develop today's Xiaomen, but it's still mixed with wild species from nowhere! Even I'm ashamed of you!" Xiao Kuangyun opened his mouth, and his voice was still shrill and unpleasant. He glanced at Xiao Che and said lightly, "Today is the meeting of Xiaomen. In addition to the people in Xiaomen, there are also guests who are allowed to enter, and there is no room for idle people! Master Xiao, what are you waiting for? Why don't you bombard this wild seed for me? You will never step into Xiaomen again in the future!!"
"Ah...this..." Xiao Yunhai's face showed an "unbearable" look, but after hesitation, he still gritted his teeth and said to Xiao Che, "Xiao Che, the five elders have admitted that you are not his grandson, and there is no blood of our Xiao's family in your body... Although our Xiao family raised you in vain. But in the past 16 years, you don't know anything about it. If you ask for anything from you, it's obvious that we are stingy... You go and leave our Xiao family immediately. From then on, you will have no grudge against me, and you will never step into my Xiao family again!"
His eyes focused on Xiao Che again, and many people sighed silently in their hearts. There was no expression of pleading or sadness on Xiao Che's face. After listening to Xiao Yunhai's words, he just smiled, with a flat and sarcastic smile: "Don't bother the master and the elders. Since I don't belong to your Xiaomen at all, I will go... and I'll leave right away!"
He stood in front of Xiao Lie and his eyes trembled. After a long time, he asked confusedly, "Grandpa... If I'm not your grandson, then who are my biological parents?"
Xiao Lie had long known that he would ask this question. He closed his eyes and shook his head slowly: "I don't know. You picked it up from the outside. Even he doesn't know who your biological parents are..."
"..." From the swaying complex light in Xiao Lie's eyes, Xiao Che knew that this was not Xiao Lie's truth. He must know something about his real life, but in front of so many people, he can't say it at all.
With a sound of "tong", Xiao Che knelt down heavily in front of Xiao Lie and said sincerely, "Grandpa, although I am not your own child, but in the past 16 years, you have treated me far more than my own child. You have raised me, nurtured me, protected me, and spent countless energy and effort for me. Sixteen years of kindness has not been rewarded for the rest of my life. I have always been extremely lucky that I have such a good grandpa as you. Although I didn't know until today that I didn't have the blood of the Xiao family, so what? You are my grandfather and I am your grandson. Even if the bloodline is different, I will always have this family affection in my heart! As long as Grandpa doesn't dislike it, I will always be your grandson!"...After a moment of speech, everyone who said it trembled slightly. Xiao Lie's eyes were quietly wet. He nodded heavily and said "Okay" in a hoarse voice. He wanted to raise his hand to help Xiao Che up.
However, Xiao Che avoided his hand, crawled down, and kowtowed to Xiao Lie three times.
"Grandpa, little aunt, after I leave, no matter what happens, I must protect myself and take good care of myself..."
When Xiao Che got up, there was a bruise on his forehead. But the smile on his face is still as gentle as the warm spring breeze. He turned his head and walked calmly towards the direction of the gate. He doesn't want to leave... Because his grandfather and aunt are still here, and he still wants to protect him with his life... However, he must leave, otherwise, grandpa and aunt will be unexpectedly implicated. Moreover, even if he wants to stay, he will inevitably be forced out.
"Xiao Che!!"
Xiao Lingxi's cry came from behind. Xiao Che's footsteps paused slightly, but he did not stop. He did not look back and resolutely walked to the door... No one knew that under his quiet and peaceful appearance at this time, there were multiple anger, resentment and murderous heart...
He has an extraordinary mind and a city, but he has no strength... Without strength, he can't fight, can't protect his grandfather and aunt, and doesn't even have the strength to struggle... He can only be expelled like this...
On the day he was just reborn, he longed for strength, which was just an instinctive pursuit of power. At this time, his desire for power is more than a hundred times stronger than at that time...
He wants to get a strong power to protect his grandfather and aunt, wash away all the shame, want all the people who show their ugly faces today to regret, want Xiao Kuangyun to die without a whole body... Even want the whole Xiao Zong to pay a price that will never be forgotten!
"Protect the safety of my grandfather and aunt... Please..."
After passing Xia Qingyue's side, Xiao Che said in a voice that only she could hear.
This man is full of mystery and arrogance. When he said this, his eyes showed a deep plea... Perhaps, he had never begged anyone in his life, so his plea seemed particularly conical. Xia Qingyue's heart trembled heavily, and she had a sense of suffocation for a moment... Almost involuntarily, she nodded slowly.
