For now, the only thing Schelling can do is wait.
Waiting for his son to come back from the family head's mansion.
However, this wait lasted overnight.
Until the next morning, Xie Lin had not seen Xie Qingshan return, and he was already extremely anxious.
Although I don't know what happened in the house of the head of the house, but he didn't come back all night, it is obvious that the head of the house takes this matter very seriously.
Or...
Xie Qingshan is really in big trouble.
While thinking of this, Xie Lin already had the idea of going directly to the Patriarch's Mansion to find someone.
However, he knew that this was not the time yet.
If we go at this time, it will definitely make the situation more troublesome.
Therefore, Xie Lin finally endured it.
…
The head of the Xie family.
When Xie Qingshan was brought, he was sandwiched between several people.
At least from this point, it is not difficult to see the attitude of the head of the Xie family towards him.
But even so, Xie Qingshan was already very calm.
He didn't panic because of such treatment.
On the contrary, the current situation may have been known for a long time.
As for the person who escorted Xie Qingshan here... he was a little surprised.
Because he knew which faction these people belonged to.
It was the people who worked for Xie Dongcheng's family.
This was the only place where Xie Qingshan was surprised.
When he arrived at the Patriarch's Mansion, Xie Qingshan was taken directly to the side hall and waited all night.
During this process, no one came to serve him tea or to question him.
It was as if he had been completely forgotten here.
Xie Qingshan had already guessed this situation.
After all, he had already received similar treatment when he was in East Qindao.
Therefore, when faced with such cold treatment today, there was not much reaction.
He was even able to sleep leisurely.
Until the next morning, a voice woke him up.
"Thank you, Master, you are here! The master of the house is calling you over."
When Xie Qingshan opened his eyes, he saw a maid standing in front of him.
In response to the maid's words, Xie Qingshan slowly stood up from the chair, nodded, and let her lead the way.
The maid did not take Xie Qingshan to the main hall, but took him to the study.
After being delivered to the door of the study, the maid said goodbye and left.
The door to the study room is closed, and the situation in the study room cannot be seen from the outside.
Just as Xie Qingshan was about to knock on the door, a voice came from the study that Xie Qingshan would never forget.
"Come in! The door is unlocked."
The voice of the head of the Xie family rang out from the study room.
The voice of the head of the Xie family was extremely dull, but there was a sense of majesty in this dullness.
And this majesty is an absolute authoritative existence for every member of the Xie family today.
If it had been before going to Qinghe Prefecture, Xie Qingshan would have already felt fear in his heart.
However, Xie Qingshan now no longer has the fear he had before.
On the contrary, when he heard this voice now, he no longer had the awe he had before.
If I have to say it, for Xie Qingshan now, what he hopes more is...
He is the one talking inside, not anyone else.
Xie Qingshan did not push the door directly in. Instead, he put away his ambitions and showed the appearance of a playboy.
Awe, the awe that a head of the Xie family should have.
The study door was slowly pushed open, and Xie Qingshan stuck his head in with a cautious look on his face.
At this glance, he discovered the head of the Xie family standing in front of the desk.
At that moment, Xie Qingshan's expression changed and he quickly spoke respectfully.
"Qingshan pays homage to the master!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Qingshan fell to his knees.
When Xie Qingshan finished saying this, he lowered his head, as if he didn't see anyone still standing in front of the desk.
As for the person standing in front of the desk, it was none other than Xie Dongcheng's father.
"Get up! You don't have to be so formal. They are all descendants of my Xie family."
The voice of the head of the Xie family sounded again, but this time it was the tone of an elder who cared about the younger generation.
Hearing this, Xie Qingshan slowly raised his head.
Only then did Xie Qingshan see Xie Dongcheng's father.
There was even a look of surprise on his face.
"Uncle, you are here too!"
This seemingly unintentional sentence made Xie Dongcheng's father's face show a strange look.
However, in response to Xie Qingshan's words, Xie Dongcheng's father just snorted coldly and paid no attention to his meaning.
Xie Qingshan, on the other hand, seemed not to care at all and set his sights on the head of the Xie family.
"I didn't know that the head of the family summoned this junior..."
Xie Qingshan did not continue speaking at this point.
It wasn't that Xie Qingshan didn't want to talk, but that the head of the Xie family had already taken the initiative to interrupt his questioning.
"I asked your father to arrange for you to go to Qinghe Prefecture for training, right?"
"Qingshan has failed the family's cultivation!"
Saying that, Xie Qingshan knelt down on the ground again, with a look of panic on his face.
"Qingshan is ashamed of his family's cultivation! Qingshan is guilty! I hope the head of the family punishes him!"
Xie Qingshan's successive words made the head of the Xie family soften slightly.
When he looked at Xie Qingshan again, his face was no longer the same as before.
"Get up! I can't blame you for this!"
Having said this, the head of the Xie family paused before continuing.
"That boy named Qin does have something. It's normal for you juniors to suffer a loss."
"What's more, I let you go just for the sake of training."
"Now, it's not a bad thing to be able to suffer some losses outside, and you can improve your memory in the future."
It seemed like the words of an elder educating a younger generation, but Xie Qingshan heard other meanings in them.
But it is naturally impossible for Xie Qingshan to point it out at the moment.
After all, his status is now nothing more than a family disgrace.
Not only was he captured, but he finally escaped in embarrassment.
If he was captured and never came back, maybe he could still have a good reputation and die heroically.
But now he ran back on his own and even told what happened after he was captured.
When these things fall into other people's mouths, they naturally become the laughing stock of others.
And what he did during these days was completely consistent with who he is now.
Xie Qingshan stays in those places of fireworks all day long. Once anyone mentions this matter, or makes insinuations intentionally or unintentionally, he will retaliate.
This is a perfectly normal thing for a narrow-minded playboy.
"But... I don't want to teach you a lesson today, but I have something else and I want to ask for some details."
The head of the Xie family changed the subject and said.
It can be said that what the head of the Xie family said now has greatly exceeded Xie Qingshan's expectations.
