Song Huai, clearly frustrated, said, "The robbers even left a gold coin with a 'thank you' note! It's like they're challenging the Song family to catch them. Who would be so bold?"
Chujiu tried not to laugh and looked at Eldest Uncle. "Sounds like the Song family leader cares more about what the robbers think than the stuff that got stolen."
Eldest Uncle couldn't help but grin. "Seriously, who thought the Song leader could be such a goofball?"
Grandpa Lin chuckled, shaking his head. "Well done, Chujiu. That was clever."
Aunt snorted with laughter. "Leaving a 'thank you' note? Now that's a first! My little robber is really naughty... "
Lin Kai, trying to suppress his grin suggested, "I think tonight we should visit Master Song, Little nine let me accompany you. I will ensure your safety."
Master Lin voice is stern, "Kai, you are an elder to Little nine, how can you lead her astray."
He turned to Chujiu and said seriously, "You will stay with your aunt tonight in our courtyard."
Grandfather Lin smirked, doesn't he know about his sons. Each son is more shameless than the other. All the righteousness and aloof nature is just a facade displayed to the world.
Chujiu want to say something, but her Eldest uncle beat her and said, "We have so many things todo today, don't forget we have to solve those young masters' issue. Don't tire yourself."
Lin Kai who wanted to argue first also felt that his niece would get tired, especially yesterday she might have not slept properly.
They can visit Master Song another day. What is the hurry.
As Lins are discussing among themselves they heard hurried footsteps, soon a 18 year old young man entered their view. He is cold and serious, his eyes revealed a ruthless glint. The moment he entered, several heads of guards and servants kneeling on the ground flied in the air and fell down one by one.
Lins are stunned for a while and sighed, Chujiu's eyes are closed as a warm arm covered her sight. Lin Kai thought, she is still a child and could not watch such gruesome scene.
Chujiu smiled and let him be, she did not struggle to see what is happening in the Song family courtyard.
She only heard a cold voice saying, "Trash, what is the use of these people if they cannot even detect the presence of a thief."
Chujiu, 'who is thief, you are the thief and your whole family are thieves. Otherwise how did you attain such wealth?'
She heard her grandfather saying, "I never knew Song Ling is so ruthless. He did not treat those servants and guards as human lives at all. These people were serving the Song family for several decades."
Master Lin said, "Father, did you observe his cultivation level?"
Grandfather Lin looked at Song Ling and was surprised, "He is already at emperor level stage 1."
Madam Lin exclaimed, "No wonder I cannot see his cultivation level, but isn't he only 18?"
Grandfather Lin thought for a while and said to everyone, "Song family seems to hide many secrets, Little jiu mischievous action gave us some surprise benefits but…". He turned to Chujiu and warned her sternly, "You are not allowed to jump around alone next time, see even if Old Master Song is injured, there are others who are at Spirit Emperor level in the Song manor. What if you were caught yesterday night?"
Chujiu slid back to Lin Kai and said aggrievedly, "I am sorry Grandfather, I will be careful next time."
Lin Kai's heart swelled up as he saw his little niece depending on him to hide, so he said on her behalf, "Father, little nine is impulsive this time. She is young after all. Let me take care of her from now on. I will accompany her where ever she wants to go."
Master Lin did not want to back down, "What do you mean by accompanying her? Do you want to teach how to rob other people homes?".
Lin Kai retorted, "Hasn't she already done it? What is left to teach?".
Chujiu felt wronged and teared up, "Eldest uncle, Second uncle, when did I rob? I only did a little bit of shopping!"
Her tears can't be anymore fake.
Madam Lin laughed, "Yes, you went to shopping in the middle of the night and the shops do not have salesmen."
Grandfather Lin cleared his throat and made all of them shut their mouths.
"Alright, Kai will stay at home from now on to accompany Little nine."
He turned to Lin Kai to warn him, "If she goes out alone, you will be thrown to Lin Army campus in Snow mountains and your wife will accompany Eldest daughter in law for a year."
Lin Kai : " "
'How can he leave his wife and not eat meat'
Su Daya always accompany her husband when he goes to South Lin Army Campus. Lin Kai can't simply live for a night without his wife.
But what can he do, he will just do his job well and will not let his father punish him.
Master Lin smirked and gave a look to his second brother, 'serves you right, who asked you to fight with me?'
Grandfather Lin, let his flying spirit make a few rounds in the Song Manor.
They did not find any suspicious people or any more Emperor level cultivators.
Lin family left Song Manor and went straight to grandfather Lin's study. All of them sat in their seats.
Master Lin shared the information he got from his spies, "As we suspected, there is indeed a gathering near Green Lake, inside the Floating Fragrance Restaurant. All young masters of Ye family and Bai family are having a celebration there."
Chujiu's interest picked up, "What celebration?"
Master Lin answered her question, "Ye family's eldest young master, Ye Yuan is getting married to Bai family's second young miss Bai Xue."
"They are engaged now and will be married in 3 years time. Both are inner disciples of Divine Medicine Sect and are childhood sweet hearts."
