Translator: Vesper

Feng Xiao’s face darkened as he looked at Ning Meng Yao’s unbearable expression. He was speechless for a while. It was indeed true, that the Master and servant are cut from the same cloth. This woman was the same as her Master.

Qiao Tian Chang caressed Ning Meng Yao’s head and instructed her not to laugh too much and leave Feng Xiao with some respect.

Ning Meng Yao touched her nose and glanced at Feng Xiao. “When are you going to return?”

“When will you go there?” Feng Xiao asked, ignoring her question.

“I’m afraid it won’t be any time soon.” Ning Meng Yao touched her belly. They would have to wait until at least after the babies were born.

Not only that, they still had some problems to take care of in the Xiao Empire.

Feng Xiao nodded, “In that case, let me stay with you. It would be nice to have a look around the place as well.”

Ning Meng Yao looked at Feng Xiao unexpectedly and asked surprisingly, “Are you actually interested in this place?”

“Yes, I don’t think there’s anything bad here.” Feng Xiao nodded.

Ning Meng Yao’s face darkened instantly. Was he planning to stay here?

They already had Mo Lin here, and now Feng Xiao also planned to stay here. How terrible was the West Coast, that made these two want to stay here instead?

“Oh yeah, do you know Xiao Luo Yan?” Ning Meng Yao could not help but ask, suddenly recalling this person.

“I know him. He’s just a useless wastrel. All ambition and no brains.” Feng Xiao said disgustedly.

Ning Meng Yao looked at Feng Xiao surprisingly. “But he doesn’t look stupid.”

“That’s because he has a fairly good military adviser by his side.” Otherwise, how could he get to the position he has in the Xiao family?

Ning Meng Yao nodded understandingly. “I see. No wonder. What does he have to do with you? Is he your subordinate or something?”

“Do I look like a garbage collector?” Feng Xiao looked at Ning Meng Yao with a contemptuous expression.

What was wrong with this girl? Only the idiots in the Xiao family would think that people like Xiao Luo Yan were incredible.

“Er, aren’t you a little too much?” Ning Meng Yao awkwardly rubbed her nose. It did not seem very nice to call someone rubbish, moreover, that person was also a part of the Xiao family.

“Too much? I can even say this in front of him. Your focus should not be on Xiao Luo Yan, but on that illegitimate son of the Xiao family. He’s the real wolf hiding under sheep wool.” Feng Xiao said while looking playfully at Ning Meng Yao and the others.

Ning Meng Yao suddenly became interested. “Tell me more.”

“The illegitimate boy is called Xiao Teng. He was actually not recognized by the Xiao family, but Xiao Luo Yan’s father saw the potential in him and his talents in many fields. So he kept him by Xiao Luo Yan’s side. What they don’t know was that person is not actually a sheep, but a wolf.” Feng Xiao could not help but say sarcastically, thinking of Xiao Teng from the Xiao family.

Ning Meng Yao looked at Feng Xiao, amazed. “Do you mean to say that Xiao Teng is plotting against the Xiao family?”

“Of course. There are many dirty things buried by every big family. Xiao Teng grew up with his mother, who was a very ordinary woman. The poor woman was killed by Xiao Luo Yan’s mother, and Xiao Teng was there to witness this incident. He had seen the whole scene with his own eyes.” Feng Xiao told Ning Meng Yao what he knew.

Since they were going there, they would definitely meet people from the Xiao family. So it was better for them to know things about the Xiao family before they went there.

Ning Meng Yao immediately understood what Feng Xiao meant. Yu Feng was very interested in the matter too. “Perhaps things will be interesting when we reach there.”

“Yep.”

Ning Meng Yao was a little curious about Xiao Luo Yan’s father. How smart was he really to put a man with this capability and history by his son’s side?

“However, Xiao Teng is a very tolerant person.”

“He indeed has a very high tolerance. He has been by Xiao Luo Yan’s side for five years. He has often had to deal with Xiao Luo Yan’s mother during this time as well. As long as one is in the Xiao’s family, one has to get used to getting injured. Talents like him, who know how to tolerate and hide their true skills, are the most dangerous people.” Feng Xiao totally agreed with Qiao Tian Chang.
