"Hehe, this is not bad. Regardless of whether we can help or not, at least we can hitch a ride. We don't have to squeeze in the bus anymore!" Ariel laughed.
"Yeah. Although it might take up some time, driving these cars will save us a lot of time on the way back. It's quite worth it," Si Tuying chimed in. She was probably the person who supported Jiang Fei's decision to help Xiao Rui the most.
Unlike other girls, Si Tuying had a family on Earth. If she could build a good relationship with Xiao Rui, Si Tuying's family would be able to live a better life on Earth.
The distance of more than two hundred kilometers was not very close. However, the speed of the sports cars was not slow either. In less than two hours, the convoy had entered the Imperial City.
Under Xiao Rui's lead, the convoy drove all the way into the city center and stopped at the entrance of a small courtyard house.
In the past, Jiang Fei had always heard that some rich people owned a few houses in the Imperial City or a few villas in the Imperial City. However, those were not considered impressive. When it came to villas, there was no doubt that they were outside the Fourth Ring Road. The truly impressive people would have a courtyard house!
With Xiao Rui leading the way, Jiang Fei and the others naturally did not stop them. They walked all the way into the alley and then into the courtyard.
"Wow!" Jiang Fei sucked in a breath of cold air as soon as he stepped through the door. The front door was wide and bright, and the courtyard had three entrances. This courtyard alone was enough to buy an entire high-class residential area in the Third Ring Road.
"This is called a bright door. It refers to the kind of door that has half a room outside the door and half a room inside the door. The door is located at the ridge of the roof. In ancient China, this was only built by high officials and nobles," Jiang Fei explained to Garona and Sarila.
"It's really impressive!" The two girls nodded repeatedly.
After passing through the door, there was a courtyard where the guards and servants lived. Further ahead, after passing through another courtyard, there was the second courtyard where the owner lived. There were five main rooms and there were also east and west side rooms. It was obvious that this was a property left behind by the old people.
After passing through the second courtyard, there was another courtyard. It was a small garden that was also very exquisite. It was decorated with carved beams and painted rafters. It was elegant and elegant.
As soon as Jiang Fei and the others entered the second courtyard, they saw a woman in her thirties. Xiao Rui immediately went up to her.
"Second aunt, where's my grandfather?" Xiao Rui asked anxiously. Although he had invited Jiang Fei and the others back, this group of people were not ordinary people. Although his grandfather was in a high position, if he let them wait for a long time, there was no telling what kind of trouble they might cause.
"Your grandpa hasn't gotten off work yet. I think he'll only be back at eight or nine o 'clock." Xiao Rui's aunt replied casually. Then, she said to Xiao Rui with a displeased look on her face, "Xiao Rui, you're not a child anymore. Don't bring all your friends home."
"Shh!" Xiao Rui's legs trembled. He knew that his aunt had always looked down on him for fooling around all day long. But this time, he really didn't bring back a bunch of scoundrels!
Moreover, although Xiao Rui usually didn't do any proper work, he wasn't stupid. He could bring his gang of scoundrels to his house, but would he dare to bring his grandfather here?
However, it didn't matter if his aunt reprimanded him in front of his face, but if he angered these people, that great aunt who loved to pinch people's bones was also here!
"What's wrong?" Xiao Rui's aunt wasn't stupid either. Although she didn't really like her nephew who didn't do proper work, she also knew that he wasn't stupid. He definitely wouldn't dare to bring ordinary scoundrels to the old man's house. So, when she saw Xiao Rui's pale face, she knew that she had said the wrong thing.
"Aunt, I'll bring a few friends in first. Hurry up and think of a way to get grandpa back. Just tell him that I've brought back the person he wants to see the most!" Xiao Rui said. He said this to get his aunt to quickly call his grandfather back, so that Jiang Fei and the others wouldn't have to wait for a long time. On the other hand, he also wanted his aunt to leave so that she wouldn't say anything else that would anger these martial artists.
"Okay! I'll go right now! " Before Xiao Rui's aunt left, she even mouthed the word "martial artist" to Xiao Rui to test him. When she saw Xiao Rui nodding, she immediately turned around and left. At the same time, she broke out in a cold sweat. Although the children of officials like them had great power in the secular world, the problem was that they weren't made of copper and iron!
No matter how powerful their family background was, as long as they were human, it would still hurt if they got beaten up. Even if their heads were chopped off, they would still die! Therefore, even if they were in high positions, when facing martial artists, these people in power still had to be courteous.
After Xiao Rui's aunt left, Jiang Fei and the others were invited into the living room. At the same time, Xiao Rui asked the servants to serve tea and left, leaving him alone to chat with Jiang Fei and the others.
Speaking of which, there were still a few people in Xiao Rui's grandfather's house. These people were even Xiao Rui's elders. When he met them, he would have to address them as uncles or uncles. However, after Xiao Rui's aunt left, she first informed these people to not join in the fun.
Under normal circumstances, these people would definitely come over to reprimand Xiao Rui. However, when they heard that the kid was actually entertaining a martial artist, they all found an excuse to go out and have fun. They did not stay at home at all.
In just half an hour, Xiao Rui's grandfather rushed back. As soon as he heard that Xiao Rui had invited a martial artist to his house, he immediately put down what he was doing and rushed back.
Although he did not know how his good-for-nothing grandson managed to invite a martial artist, for people like him, the process was not important. What he cared about was the result!
As soon as Xiao He entered the house, he saw Jiang Fei and the others sitting in the living room.
"Hahaha, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting!" Xiao He took the initiative to greet them with a smile. As the saying goes, those who show courtesy must have a request. He was very clear about this.
"Hello, Old Xiao. You are also working hard for official business. It is only right for us to wait for a while." Jiang Fei was also very polite. No matter what, this old man was old enough to be his grandfather. It was only right for him to be polite.
"Come, come, come. Everyone, sit down." Xiao He looked at Jiang Fei in surprise. First of all, he did not expect Jiang Fei to be so polite. From what he knew, martial artists all had eyes on the top of their heads. They had always looked at others with their noses in the air.
Secondly, Jiang Fei looked too young. In the circle of martial artists, being young meant that one was weak and had a low status. Therefore, although he wanted to look for a martial artist, Jiang Fei's age probably did not have much say in the Martial Art Alliance. At most, Jiang Fei could only help him pass on a message.
Although he was a little disappointed, Xiao He did not show it on his face. Moreover, he was very satisfied with his grandson's performance today. Although the martial artist he invited was very young, at least he could pass on a message. Finding them was equivalent to finding the Martial Art Alliance. This was better than not knowing where the martial artist was for the past few days!
