This time, it was Shirō Makino's turn to be embarrassed. He thought to himself, Seriously my ass!
Are you stupid?
Your father is even more terrifying than that child-doting demon, Si Wenshan!
Would he sell you to me?
He would rather sell himself than to you!
Xiahou Ziyue also felt that the possibility was very small. Hence, she immediately became disappointed and said, "Why don't you take me away?"
"No." Shirō Makino had a look of disdain.
Why would I take you away?
Who would want a spoiled little girl who couldn't wash clothes, cook, or serve others? She was so innocent that she could be cheated away without even needing a piece of candy.
I'm still a baby. There's no lack of little ancestors at home!
"I'm easy to take. You can take me away once you take me away." Xiahou Ziyue had a look of sincerity.
"No." Shirō Makino shook his head again.
"Just give it a try …" Xiahou Ziyue pouted.
She really wanted to leave this home!
This home, from top to bottom, made her feel like she couldn't breathe.
Even though she couldn't see the people at home here, it still made her feel suffocated.
Although she was a little better now, the extreme emotions were gone. But deep in her heart, she still wanted to escape this home.
At this moment, the sound of high heels came from outside. A young woman walked in quickly. When she saw Xiahou Ziyue, her eyes instantly turned red.
"Xiaoyue, sorry. Mommy is late."
A young and beautiful woman dressed in professional attire with her hair tied up quickly walked in front of Xiahou Ziyue. She hugged Xiahou Ziyue in her arms as tears streamed down her cheeks.
Xiahou Ziyue didn't have much of an expression on her face. She even stole a glance at Shirō Makino.
The atmosphere seemed a little awkward.
At this moment, the young woman also saw Shirō Makino sitting opposite her. A look of amazement flashed in her eyes. What a young and handsome boy.
Look at those pure and bright eyes, that face shape, that nose bridge … Tsk tsk, there are no dead angles at all. How did he look like this?
He's a perfect match with my Ziyue!
He's also my savior!
A match made in heaven!
"Nice to meet you, Young Master Bai. I am Zhang Ying, Zi Yue's mother. I'm sorry, I was too emotional and made a fool of myself. "The young woman smiled at Shirō Makino and slowly let go of her daughter.
He took the paper towel from Du Duo'er and gently wiped the corners of his eyes as he said.
"Oh, hello Auntie." Shirō Makino nodded at Zhang Ying.
Sherlie had told him last night that Ziyue's mother managed two companies and was very busy on normal days.
The two companies had nothing to do with the organization's black businesses. One was a clothing company, and the other was an advertising and media company.
Both of these companies had an annual turnover of hundreds of millions. For a family like the Xiahou family, this was not a big sum of money.
But in Sherlie's words, a woman had to have something to do. She couldn't just stay at home. Otherwise, she would think about you all day and it would be very annoying.
If you give her something to do, not only will she be busy, but she will also have a sense of accomplishment when she achieves something.
"And when a woman has a sense of accomplishment, her body will emit a different kind of enchanting temperament!"
Sherlie was fascinated by his wife's temperament.
So for so many years, he only had one woman, his wife.
Their relationship had always been harmonious.
So, Shirō Makino felt strange. They were both normal people. Why did his daughter become like this?
Also, why can't you treat your daughter the same way you treat your wife?
Let her go out to school! Let her come into contact with the outside world! Let her make friends, let her fall in love!
If that's the case, why would she lock herself up? Why would she shut herself up at home?
Sherlie and his wife didn't seem to be unreasonable people. Why did they raise their daughter to be such a weirdo?
But this was someone else's family matter. It had nothing to do with him.
Thinking about Si Yin's father, Shirō Makino seemed to be able to find a reason. It was just that Sherlie was more extreme than Si Yin's father.
Perhaps he didn't need a reason to do so.
Did he need a reason to pamper his daughter?
It could be seen that Xiahou Ziyue wasn't close to her strong woman mother.
Strictly speaking, she wasn't close to anyone.
Even after experiencing such a change, she understood that her father really loved her.
But after so many years, it was hard to change some habits in a short period of time.
"I heard from Mingming … cough cough, I heard from her father that Young Master Bai had cured her. I'm really grateful. If Young Master Bai needs anything in the future, you can look for me anytime. This is my identification number. "Zhang Ying looked at Shirō Makino and gave him her identification number.
"Oh, okay, okay." Shirō Makino agreed casually. But in his heart, he was thinking: Mingming?
Seeing that Shirō Makino didn't seem to have any intention of exchanging identification numbers, Zhang Ying felt a little awkward. But she didn't continue asking about it. With her status, it was an honor for most people to take the initiative like this.
If she took the initiative and the other party ignored her, then there was no need to be thick-skinned and continue.
Even if this person was her daughter's savior, even if she liked him very much.
Xiahou Ziyue looked at Shirō Makino and said, "My mother wants to exchange identification numbers with you."
Fine, a pure and honest girl without any experience!
Bai Muye glanced at her and explained in a serious tone, "I don't like exchanging identification numbers with people I'm not familiar with."
Who doesn't know how to be honest?
I'm younger than you by two years.
Zhang Ying smiled and said, "Sorry, I was rude …"
At this time, Old Xia walked in from outside with a happy smile on his face.
He probably figured it out after one night. In any case, there was nothing unusual on his face.
"You're all here? Haha, Young Master Bai, how did you sleep last night? "Xiahou Ming greeted him warmly.
Shirō Makino nodded and said, "Not bad."
He looked at Xiahou Ming and said, "Your daughter is fine now. She'll be back to normal after a period of rest. My mission can be considered completed. "
"I, Xiahou Ming, will never forget Young Master Bai's kindness!"
Of course he wouldn't forget!
If he could forget something like that, how heartless would he be?
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Bai had already been out for more than a month. This month was also the most rewarding period for him in all these years!
He could use all the high-grade talisman materials he wanted!
For Little White, there was nothing more blissful than this.
In the real world, the quality of all his talisman techniques had all been improved.
Most importantly, he had earned a lot of money!
Most importantly, he had earned a huge family!
A chicken that could lay golden eggs!
This kind of thing was probably hard to encounter even once in a thousand years.
At the same time, this trip to Liming City made him more vigilant.
Although Xiahou Ziyue's encounter with the Protoss was not a high probability event, the reopening of the Black Domain and the introduction of a complicated map for the low-level league … When all these things were combined together, he could feel the atmosphere of this world becoming tense.
It seemed like he had to quickly improve on his side!
After not going to the Black Domain for so long, he didn't know what the situation was like there.
Perhaps Xiaolongbao and the others had already entered the bronze stage.
I can't delay any longer!
"Well, there's actually not much need to be grateful."
Shirō Makino thought to himself, It's fine as long as you don't hate me too much.
He smiled and said, "See if you can pay the consultation fee. Also, I still have to study here. If I go back quickly, I can still take part in the final exam."
Xiahou Ming smiled and nodded. "Alright, Young Master Bai is like the reincarnation of a divine doctor. I will definitely promote Young Master Bai more in the future."
"Haha, thank you very much!" Shirō Makino smiled and nodded.
Xiahou Ziyue understood some things in her heart. There seemed to be some kind of deal between her father and Shirō Makino!
As for Zhang Ying, she looked like the type who didn't know anything. Seeing that Shirō Makino had a smooth communication with her husband, she was very happy in her heart.
Although she liked Xiao Bai very much at first sight, she didn't care too much about whether Bai Muye and her daughter would have anything to do with each other. At her family's level, it was very difficult for her to decide the marriage of her children.
In her heart, she was more worried that her daughter's illness would relapse again!
After all, no matter how powerful a big shot was, they still needed a few powerful doctor friends. Who could guarantee that they wouldn't fall sick in this life?
That was why she needed to be on good terms with Xiao Bai. But with Mingming around, she didn't need to worry about this.
After breakfast, Zhang Ying left first. She had a lot of things to do in her company. Although she didn't need to attend to everything personally as the boss, she liked that kind of atmosphere.
Xiahou Ming quickly asked someone to transfer the remaining 1.5 billion to Shirō Makino's account.
This was all expected.
But unexpectedly, Xiahou Ziyue directly suggested to Xiahou Ming that she wanted to go to Hundred Flowers City with Shirō Makino.
"I want to go to school." She said with a firm attitude.
Xiahou Ming recalled what Shirō Makino told him before, saying that his daughter's mental strength was extremely high!
After experiencing this calamity that almost consigned the entire Xiahou family to eternal damnation, Xiahou Ming couldn't help but reflect.
Was it wrong for him to raise his daughter at home like this, find all sorts of top-notch tutorials on the internet for her to learn by herself, and never let her come into contact with the outside world?
Actually, in the depths of his heart, he still insisted on his own viewpoint.
But he also understood that if this continued, even if Xiahou Ziyue's illness was completely cured, her heart … would still be sealed.
"You can go to school, but you have to stay in Liming City." There was still a tough battle to fight later. What was the point of following Shirō Makino?
Moreover, even if there wasn't a tough battle to fight, you can't follow by his side!
Wouldn't everything be exposed?
"I won't!" Xiahou Ziyue's eyes were especially pure as she looked at her father stubbornly. "I want to go with him!"
"No." Shirō Makino shook his head and looked at Xiahou Ziyue. "I don't have time to care about you."
"I don't need you to care about me. After I go, I will take care of myself! You are all underestimating me. Actually, I can do anything by myself! I can take care of myself! "Xiahou Ziyue said with a serious expression.
Forget it, you are too good at bragging!
Shirō Makino shook his head again and looked at Xiahou Ziyue. "What is your goal in following me to Hundred Flowers City?"
"I want to broaden my horizons with you," Xiahou Ziyue said.
"You really want to broaden your horizons?" Shirō Makino raised his brows and asked Xiahou Ziyue.
"Yes, I have already grown up. I don't want to continue staying at home like this." Xiahou Ziyue didn't look at her father, but her words were for Old Xia to hear.
Xiahou Ming had a depressed look. His daughter's attitude of wanting to leave home was too firm!
It wasn't easy for him to improve his father-daughter relationship. He didn't want it to be ruined. Hence, he looked at Shirō Makino for help.
This little fox was very crafty!
There was definitely nothing wrong with letting him think of a solution.
Shirō Makino's mind spun quickly. Then, he said to Xiahou Ziyue, "A third-class city is a small place. What can I see there? Furthermore, even if I return to Hundred Flowers City, I will spend most of my time outside. If you really want to broaden your horizons, I suggest you go to a bigger city. With your talent, as long as you are willing, any school will be more than happy to accept you. "
Xiahou Ziyue hesitated. It wasn't that she liked Shirō Makino. She just felt that this person knew a lot of things!
Although he wasn't as good as her master …
Thinking of her master, Xiahou Ziyue felt a stabbing pain in her heart.
She had no experience and didn't know the ways of the world, but that didn't mean she was a fool.
Ever since she was young, she hadn't missed out on anything she needed to learn.
She was proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She hadn't neglected the cultural classes that people her age should have learned.
If Xiahou Ming had been willing to let her grow up normally in the outside world, then this nineteen-year-old girl with high Mental Power would have long been famous.
After all, a youngster at this age had close to two hundred Mental Power … and she had never cultivated before.
She could already be considered a super genius!
If she was given the chance to cultivate, her achievements would definitely be much higher than now.
"Xiaoyue, you … really have very high Mental Power?" Xiahou Ming couldn't help but ask.
Xiahou Ziyue thought about it.
At this moment, all the moving items in the kitchen floated up!
Including the heavy and expensive dining table!
All of them left the ground and floated in midair.
Du Duo 'er, who had been standing at the side and pretending to be invisible, let out a cry of surprise when she saw this strange scene.
Then, she immediately covered her mouth. However, her gaze towards Xiahou Ziyue was filled with disbelief and shock.
How could this be?
It was too shocking!
Miss, she … she was actually a Mental Power expert?
Xiahou Ming was also stunned.
Previously, when she was receiving treatment, she had shown some abnormalities due to her agitated emotions.
However, Xiahou Ming had always believed that it was the doing of the Protoss.
How could he not understand his own daughter?
How could he have the ability?
But now, he suddenly realized that he really didn't understand.
He finally understood that Shirō Makino didn't lie to him.
Xiahou Ziyue gently put down all these items and returned them to their original positions. It was almost exactly the same!
She displayed the ability of a high Mental Power expert to control objects.
Shirō Makino was a little envious. When could he do this in reality?
If he had more than 200 points of Mental Power to use, how good would that be?
He could use so many attribute talismans!
That was the true Talisman Technique!
Xiahou Ming was excited and proud, but also a little complicated.
His daughter was far more outstanding than he had imagined!
"When did it start?" he asked.
"More than ten years," Xiahou Ziyue replied.
Xiahou Ming was silent for a moment before asking, "What school do you want to attend?"
"His school." Xiahou Ziyue looked at Shirō Makino.
Xiao Bai had a headache.
Xiahou Ming glanced at Du Duo 'er. Du Duo' er hurriedly said, "President, go ahead. I'll go out for a while."
Sensible.
There were only three people left in the huge dining room.
Xiahou Ming said, "Dad has an agreement with Young Master Bai."
Xiahou Ziyue looked up, feeling a little smug. Hmph, I knew it!
"In the future, we will be enemies with Young Master Bai on the surface. You can't appear by his side. That will affect our overall plan. "
Xiahou Ziyue was stunned, looking stunned. Why was this a little different from what she had imagined?
Xiahou Ming threw caution to the wind. He was actually extremely vexed.
His precious daughter was the real reason why things had gotten to this point.
Without the Protoss incident, so what if Shirō Makino grasped the organization's secret? So what if King Qi was involved?
He had ways to deal with this youth!
Unfortunately, he could lose his temper with anyone, including his beloved wife, but he couldn't bear to lose his temper with his daughter.
Even when the family was on the verge of collapse, he was most concerned about whether his daughter could be cured.
He didn't only have this one daughter, but the one he doted on the most would forever be his youngest daughter!
Xiahou Ziyue was in a daze. She looked at her father blankly before looking at Shirō Makino. Her especially clean eyes were filled with confusion.
She didn't understand, nor could she figure it out.
"Do you trust Dad?" Xiahou Ming looked into Xiahou Ziyue's eyes and asked.
"I do." Xiahou Ziyue lowered her head and replied softly.
Although she didn't like what they did all these years, Xiahou Ming had never lied to her.
"Then you just need to remember that once you get too close to Young Master Bai, our entire family will be in trouble and will be destroyed." Xiahou Ming sighed softly.
"Why is it like this? I-I don't understand. "Xiahou Ziyue looked at her father with her big, clear eyes.
"You know about Dad's organization, right?" Xiahou Ming looked at his daughter and said with a heavy expression, "Dad won't explain so much to you. Dad just wants to tell you one thing. Once you enter that organization, there is no way out. I can't even stop them from installing surveillance equipment in our house. Not only can I not stop them, but I also have to take the initiative to help them install … "
"Those things … weren't you the one who wanted to install them?" Xiahou Ziyue asked softly.
"Is there something wrong with my head? I can monitor anyone, but why would I monitor you? "Xiahou Ming smiled bitterly at his daughter." Let's not talk about this anymore. This time, the organization Dad is in has decided to kill Young Master Bai. However, he treated you, and our family is indebted to him. Dad can't do that anymore. "
Shirō Makino said, "That's right. Biting the hand that feeds him isn't something a human would do. Your father isn't that kind of person."
Xiahou Ming: "…"
Little bastard!
You never forget to mock me at any time.
Ignoring Shirō Makino's mockery, Xiahou Ming only looked at his daughter. "So, Dad has to cooperate with Young Master Bai and put on a show. We have to make it look like he broke out of the encirclement himself! But in the dark, he is still our family's benefactor. You have to respect Young Master Bai like everyone else. Do you understand Dad's words? "
Xiahou Ziyue thought for a long time before shaking her head slightly. "Why is it so troublesome? Can't Dad just leave that organization? "
"Dad said that there is no way out. Just like how Dad regrets not letting you come into contact with the outside world from a young age like other children. But it's too late for regrets, "Xiahou Ming said solemnly.
This was the thing he regretted the most!
Otherwise, how could he be here today?
"Then, I understand a little. I won't go." Although Xiahou Ziyue still didn't understand why it had to be like this, she was persuaded.
Just like Shirō Makino's judgment of her, there was no need for sweets. A few good words were enough to trick this girl away.
"You have such high mental strength. Dad wants to send you to a good school in Ziyun. Are you willing?" His daughter was his lifeblood. The current Xiahou family was like a small boat in a huge wave that could capsize at any time.
This daughter really couldn't be raised like in the past.
He needed to let her have the ability to survive independently.
Since that was the case, he might as well be more straightforward and let her stay further away from these troublesome places.
To Ziyun!
That was the Imperial Capital, the Imperial City!
With her talent, it wouldn't be difficult for her to find any kind of school.
In that kind of place, she should be able to mature quickly.
For this daughter of his, Xia Houming was truly worried to death.
Xiahou Ziyue thought about it and nodded. "Alright!"
Anyway, to her, as long as she could leave home, she could go anywhere.
Then, she turned her gaze to Shirō Makino. "Then, can we exchange identification numbers? I want to invite you to be my first friend. "
Shirō Makino hesitated for a moment but didn't reject it in the end.
He definitely couldn't keep such a girl by his side. He didn't want to be someone's nanny.
But if he could have a friend with such high mental strength, he was still willing.
Especially when she was so silly and gullible. Cough, cough. This was a joke and definitely not from the heart.
After exchanging identification numbers, Xiahou Ming looked at his daughter with a look of reluctance. "Dad will send you away now!"
"Ah? In such a hurry? " No matter how much she wanted to leave, this was too sudden. She wasn't mentally prepared at all.
"Yes, it's very urgent. I can't wait any longer." Xiahou Ming sighed.
If he waited any longer, people would suspect that he and Shirō Makino had some private deal!
Just like he said, there were a lot of people in Liming City who wanted to replace him. It was urgent to clean up.
That afternoon, Xiahou Ziyue was sent away by Xiahou Ming.
After they separated, she sent the first message to Shirō Makino after they added each other as friends.
"I know that you saved my life, and I will never forget it. I also know that I seem to have brought a great and unexpected calamity upon my family. I secretly checked the consequences of being involved with those things … Thank you for keeping it a secret for my family. But please don't make things difficult for them, okay? Although they are bad people, they are still bad people with principles. I didn't understand in the past, but now I understand a little. When I become stronger, I will definitely help you! My life was given by you. My family's life was also given by you. Believe me, I will definitely become a useful person. Then, I will return to your side and help you deal with anything. Thank you, Xiao Bai. I watched all your competition videos these two days. It was great. I learned a lot. I want to be like you. I was really silly in the past. When I become stronger. "
When Shirō Makino saw Xiahou Ziyue's message, he was stunned for a long time.
This girl was just pure and inexperienced, but she wasn't silly at all!
She was even a little, a little smart.
It was good to be a little silly!
Sigh, how melancholic.
Xiahou Ming personally sent his daughter to a first-class main city. At the same time, his wife, Zhang Ying, also left.
The couple decided to accompany their child to Ziyun!
Zhang Ying didn't understand what made her husband change his mind to actually send his daughter out to school.
But after so many years, she had already chosen to trust and obey her husband.
What strong woman? How could she be better than my Mingming?
Old Xia's family of three left Liming City.
This big city with a population of hundreds of millions didn't seem to have changed on the surface. It was still prosperous and civilized.
But in secret, there were undercurrents surging!
Countless people with different thoughts were making their final preparations.
The first thing was … to kill Shirō Makino!
