Xiao Jiayue slowly raised his eyes and met his grandfather's gaze, understanding that his grandfather meant to reassure him.
He nodded slightly, not too much, indicating that he understood.
Looking at my father again, I saw that his expression was as usual and he had no intention of talking too much.
What we need to do now is to chat with the leader, send this untouchable Buddha away in a calm environment, and live in peace.
There is only one premise: the leader must not know about the Xiao family's retrieval of Yuyu.
at this time.
From the stairs along the wall, there was the sound of people going downstairs. There was not much movement, but the people on the sofa happened to be silent and it was very quiet.
The leader had sharp ears and sensitive perception, and subconsciously turned his head to look at the stairs.
Qin Huimin's eyes met with her on the stairs, and her feet froze.
The main reason was that the strange man who suddenly appeared at home had a strong aura and was obviously not an ordinary person, but she had not heard her family talk about such a man coming.
Before Qin Huimin could speak, the leader greeted warmly: "Hello, this beautiful lady, you must be the mistress of the Xiao family, right?"
Qin Huimin's eyes moved away, looking at the family members opposite him, and finally focused on Xiao Ying.
Xiao Ying nodded, implying that she could just speak with confidence and don't be nervous.
In this way, Qin Huimin nodded and responded: "Hello, I didn't know there was a guest at home. I'm going to change clothes."
She was wearing simple pajamas, her hair was combed straight down and not tied up much. She was pure and quiet. She was raised in a wealthy family, and her skin was beautiful and glowing.
The leader smiled and waved his hand: "Don't bother me. I'm here unexpectedly. You look good now. You don't need to bother changing your clothes."
Qin Huimin was hesitating when she suddenly glanced at the people outside the door. Several guards were standing there, with strict postures and serious faces. She then looked at her family members on the sofa. They usually behaved casually when returning home, but now His posture was more or less unnatural, and he was still at home.
Thinking of this, she was a little afraid of the leader's identity.
According to his wishes, he came down in his pajamas.
The leader's gaze was slightly shallow and not uncomfortable. It was as if he was just visiting with a neighbor. He was natural and relaxed. He chatted casually: "It seems that Mr. Xiao mentioned to me before that your Xiao family has a daughter. Look. Seeing as how beautiful her mother is, her daughter should not be far behind."
Speaking of this, he smiled and asked: "Mrs. Xiao, where is your daughter?"
The moment he finished speaking, the expressions of the three people behind the leader suddenly changed dramatically.
It was like a calm lake. Suddenly, the water of the lake became scalding hot. There were bubbles under the bottom of the lake that were about to pop out at any time. The surface of the lake was about to boil at any time.
Even the air in Xiao's house became extremely hot, even thin.
Xiao Jiayue and Mr. Xiao grabbed their pants at the same time, and Mr. Xiao's palms even began to tremble slightly.
Xiao Ying sat between the two of them and could clearly feel the tension coming from both sides. He could also guess that the matter of finding Yuyu had to be hidden from the leader.
But Qin Huimin didn't know who the leader was, and just thought he was a well-connected friend. In addition, he asked directly, so it was understood that he had found Yuyu. This was normal.
As she gradually walked over, the corners of her lips moved slightly, the tense atmosphere in the Xiao family reached its peak, as if it was about to explode at any moment.
At this moment, the leader withdrew his gaze. The actions of the Xiao family were all within his sight, and every word and deed could be suspicious.
The more critical the issue, the less likely it is that the leader can detect it. His acumen is far beyond that of ordinary people.
Xiao Jiayue and Mr. Xiao knew about it and were extremely panicked, fearing that Qin Huimin's words would be exposed.
"my daughter……"
As soon as Qin Huimin opened her mouth to speak, Xiao Jia's heart was in her throat. She was watching the leader out of the corner of her eye, holding her breath.
She paused for a while and then said: "Not at Xiao's house."
The leader's smile remained unchanged, and his voice was gentle, but more like a needle hidden in the cotton wool: "Then where is she?" biquge.biz
Qin Huimin sat alone on the sofa next to her, paused for a while, and then replied with a smile: "I don't know either."
Xiao Jiayue's heart suddenly jumped, and a bit of surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't know how his mother understood it. In short, luckily, the secret was not revealed.
He answered quickly to prevent another accident: "We, the Xiao family, don't know."
The implication is that the daughter of the Xiao family has not been found yet, so she reminded her parents so that they could answer the call.
Mr. Xiao made it even more obvious that he didn't want his granddaughter to be married overseas because of his previous mistakes. He smiled and talked to the leader: "Yes, no one knows where Yuyu is. It wasn't before. Do you want your help too? Many years have passed since the incident, and the Xiao family has searched all over the country, but there is still no whereabouts of Yuyu."
After saying this, the old man made a pained look, which didn't look fake.
The leader repeatedly brought him tea and said very apologetically: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't mention your sadness. I just wanted to ask if you have found your granddaughter, but I am not very familiar with Chinese. I may not be able to express myself very well." No, you shouldn’t ask so directly.”
The smile on his face was always deep and shallow, and his face was clearly three-dimensional and clear. It was right in front of him, but it was also like distant mountains seen through fog, and the original scenery could not be seen at all.
Xiao Jiayue couldn't tell at all whether he was really unfamiliar with Chinese or just looking for excuses for testing. He couldn't figure it out.
In short, it was a false alarm.
Mr. Xiao shook his head, took the tea, and poured him another cup himself: "Let's not talk about these unhappy things. Let's continue the previous topic. When you come to our country, do you have a mission or is it a personal matter? ?”
Before the Xiao family father and son came back, Mr. Xiao and the leader had just met. The tea they poured was not cold yet, and they had just exchanged a few words of greeting.
At this moment, I finally got to the point.
The leader nodded, with a smile on his face. He took out a blueprint from his pocket and spread it out in front of the Xiao family.
"Jade pendant?" Xiao Jiayue spoke subconsciously.
In the hand of a foreigner, there is a drawing of a jade pendant. It has distinct shapes and delicate strokes. It is obvious that he is particularly familiar with and has a special attachment to this jade pendant.
"Yes, jade pendant." He said seriously: "I talked to your grandfather before. I came to your country a few years ago, married a woman, and had a son. Because the situation was complicated at the time, I couldn't bring him safely. The child went back to be raised and left here.
The reason why I came here this time is because someone is checking us over there, and the movement is not small, so I wonder if they are checking on my son in China? "
"Why are you so suspicious?" Xiao Jiayue asked in surprise.
"Because at the same time, there were too many people checking on me from various channels. It was too coincidental. I was worried that children far away in China would be in danger."
