Chapter 4: Blocking
Xiao Yan proudly introduced the Dou Technique Hall, which was not far away, to Gu Xun'er, not forgetting to mention afterward, "Cousin Xun'er, do you want to go in and take a look since you've just returned to the Xiao Family?"
Gu Xun'er's face was calm at that moment and she nodded slightly to Xiao Yan, who had been chatting beside her.
"Then, I'll bother cousin Xiao Yan."
Hearing Gu Xun'er's sweet voice, Xiao Yan felt somewhat distressed by her cold attitude.
I wonder what is the origin of this cousin Xun'er who has suddenly appeared, for that stingy old father to call me to come and familiarize her with the clan and explain to me that I should be careful not to offend her, isn't she just a brat?
Xiao Yan had developed a certain meanness after all these years of living as a young master. He had intended to quit, but when he thought of Xiao Zhan's serious attitude when he called him earlier, he decided to put up with it for a while, but inwardly he had a plan.
"Who is there?"
"It's me, Xiao Ming."
Xiao Ming didn't even hide his footprints from the side and was easily spotted by the two conversing children.
Looking at Xiao Ming, who was coming out from the corner, Xiao Yan frowned and asked loudly: "What are you doing staying in the corner if you have nothing to do here?"
Xiao Yan had some impressions of Xiao Ming, there were quite a few children in the whole Xiao family, and out of all of them this Xiao Ming looked the cutest, however, what made him remember Xiao Ming was not his appearance, but his attitude when he saw him.
All the children his age in the whole Xiao family were respectful and struggled to please him, but only this Xiao Ming would just nod and walk away whenever he saw him.
Not only to him but to everyone in the Xiao family, this person always seemed to have that same attitude.
That was why Xiao Yan had a deeper impression of this Xiao Ming.
However, if I remember correctly, didn't Xiao Ming's parents die and he lives in Zhonglie Hall near the outskirts, so what's the point of running all the way here for nothing?
"I came here to go to the Dou Technique Hall to see if there is a suitable Dou Technique for me."
Xiao Yan understood, the Dou Technique Hall was not far away, no wonder he appeared here, and said with some amusement.
"You haven't practiced your Dou Qi yet, right, what's the point of choosing Dou Techniques, it's no good for the guards to let you in like this, it's a waste of time to go, why don't you go straight back?".
After saying that, he left with Gu Xun'er.
This...
Xiao Ming felt embarrassed, he had never been to the Dou Technique Hall, and didn't know that there were actually such rules to enter.
Thinking about it, you don't even have Dou Qi, what the hell are you practicing Dou Techniques for? If you were older, it would be fine, but you're so young, it would be strange to be let in.
Although Xiao Ming had Dou Qi, it wasn't like the others knew about it.
It seemed that this time it was really a wasted trip.
Xiao Ming sighed and looked at the two figures that were heading to the Dou Technique Hall, and couldn't help but mutter to himself.
This Xiao Zhan was really a bit of a fool, Gu Xun'er had come to the Xiao family as an undercover agent to steal the ancient jade, and he was still foolish enough to let Xiao Yan guide her to familiarize herself with the Xiao family, was this because he was afraid that she wouldn't be able to find it? This was really a foolish act.
If he didn't have the ancient jade with him, it would have been stolen within a month.
Thinking about it, Xiao Ming suddenly lost his smile and shook his head.
This Xiao Zhan might not be a naive person either.
He feared that he had some plans of his own.
As for the original story, having Xiao Yan and Gu Xun'er come into contact was a good move.
Even if he did not have the idea of having Gu Xun'er become his daughter-in-law, he feared that he had the implication of having Xiao Yan befriend her.
As it turned out, Xiao Yan lived up to her expectations and captured Gu Xun'er's heart by unconventional means.
Xiao Ming could now certainly consider replicating Xiao Yan's actions to get his hands on Gu Xun'er.
This person, Gu Xun'er, being the eldest miss of the Gu Clan, was someone capable of supporting him, and would not let go of the person she had decided to die for, and would never leave him. It's a good thing, but Xiao Ming didn't have that idea.
What on earth?
Does he, Xiao Ming, look like someone who would take advantage of a little girl?!!
No normal person could do that kind of thing.
'Seeing the look Xiao Yan just now, he's going to enter Gu Xun'er's room this afternoon, right?' Xiao Ming rubbed his chin in thought.
The simulator self was the one who realized that Xiao Yan wasn't looking at Gu Xun'er in the right way tomorrow.
But that didn't mean that Xiao Yan would only touch Gu Xun'er's room tomorrow.
'It's better to sneak out at night to prevent this fellow Xiao Yan from disgracing all the men in the world.'
Xiao Ming shook his head and walked forward to the Xiao family's back mountain.
It was still early, so now he could go to the back mountain to soak in the hot springs.
...
The moon was like a silver plate and the sky was full of stars.
Xiao Ming entered the backyard from the back mountain, which was filled with the chirping of unfamiliar insects, and sought the bright white light of the moon.
The backyard was an area where only the worthiest existences of the Xiao family could live, with many separate courtyards, and Xiao Yan had a small courtyard all to himself after his mother's death, with special maids to serve him.
Xiao Ming hurried through courtyard after courtyard and soon arrived at Xiao Yan's small courtyard.
Finding a hidden corner, he tried his best to hide his body odor, a little embarrassed inside.
'What a headache, I actually fell asleep while soaking in the hot spring, it seems I was too tired these past few days, and I don't know what time it is, I hope Xiao Yan hasn't come out yet.'
Luckily, Xiao Yan didn't keep him waiting much longer, Xiao Ming had just arrived a moment ago when he saw the small carved wooden door of the courtyard slowly open and a coal-black figure silently slipped out.
Through the bright moonlight, Xiao Ming, who was hiding in the shadows, clearly saw the face.
'I really didn't make a mistake, Xiao Yan will be heading to Gu Xun'er's room tonight.'
Xiao Ming did not immediately come out to stop him, a person must be caught red-handed, at this time Xiao Yan can come out with an excuse to object.
The two soon arrived at another small courtyard.
Xiao Yan was climbing up the wall when Xiao Ming knew it was time and immediately jumped out of the darkness and shouted, "Who is sneaking out?"
"Ahhhh!"
Xiao Yan was still concentrating on climbing up the wall there when he suddenly heard a sound and immediately fell off the wall due to his unstable center of gravity, falling to the ground and letting out a cry of pain.
The commotion that ensued was not small and evidently disturbed those present in the small courtyard, which was illuminated with lights.
Xiao Ming approached Xiao Yan, looking his ashen face up and down, held back laughter, and pretended to be very puzzled as he asked, "Cousin Xiao Yan, how come it's you, what are you doing climbing the wall in the middle of the night, you're not trying to do something wrong, are you?"
"This..." Xiao Yan was originally relieved when he saw the person approaching, but when he heard Xiao Ming ask this, he immediately panicked and did not know how to respond.
He had come here to experience Dou Qi with Xun'er, who had just arrived in the Xiao family not long ago, the other children of the Xiao family basically lived with their parents, and those orphans also shared a room with several people, and they were not yet in the backyard.
Only this newcomer, Xun'er, lived alone in a small courtyard like him, and the two of them were not far apart, which suited him perfectly.
But could this be told, no! If it was told and Xiao Ming passed it on to others, even if his father was the head of the clan, there would be no good consequences.
Just as Xiao Yan was stammering out the words, a sudden flash of light came.
"You're asking me, I still have to ask you, what are you doing running into the backyard in the middle of the night? It's not because you wanted to steal something, is it?"
