“Please come in!”
Seeing that Wang Xiao did not move, that person repeated himself. His tone clearly became a little nasty. “Boss doesn’t like to wait for people.”
“What a coincidence. I don’t like to wait for others either!”
Wang Xiao subconsciously sneered and replied, but as soon as he said this, he regretted it.
Who was inside? The legendary boss of the Lord’s Shop! Putting aside the transaction between the two sides, if he angered the other party, wouldn’t it be easy for the other party to kill him?
However, words were like water that had been splashed out. It was too late to regret now. Wang Xiao simply made up his mind and pushed open the door before striding in.
In the office, Lin Xiang, Shen Tianlin, and a white-haired old man were sitting on the sofa.
This old man was dressed luxuriously. His silver-white short hair showed that he was at least 80 to 90 years old, but his face was rosy and he looked full of energy. He did not even have many wrinkles.
There was a faint smile on his lips and his eyes were gentle. Although his aura was very strong, he did not make people feel distant at all. He was like an elder that he had a close relationship with in the family.
Looking at the expressions of the three of them, it seemed that they had been chatting happily just now. Even the atmosphere in the room was very relaxed. Such an abnormal situation could not help but make Wang Xiao a little confused.
At the same time, when Lin Xiang saw Wang Xiao enter, he immediately stood up from the sofa. “Boss, let me introduce you. This is Wang Xiao, Lord Wang. Although he’s young, his strength is outstanding among the younger generation of our Kaiyang City!”
The white-haired old man said with interest, “Oh?” He sized Wang Xiao up and nodded with approval, “He’s also a talented person. Such a young talent is rare even in the Holy Capital!”
“Haha! Boss, you’re too kind!”
Lin Xiang smiled. As he spoke, he quietly approached Wang Xiao and reminded
him in a low voice, “Brother Wang! What are you waiting for? Quickly greet the boss!”
“Huh? Oh!”
Wang Xiao was stunned for a moment before reacting. Then, he cupped his hands and bowed slightly to the white-haired old man. “Junior Wang Xiao greets Boss Liu.”
The white-haired old man narrowed his eyes. “Manager Lin hasn’t introduced me yet. How do you know my surname is Liu?”
“I’ve seen your granddaughter Liu Yingying before.”
Wang Xiao replied neither servile nor overbearing, “Since your granddaughter’s surname is Liu, if there are no accidents, your surname should also be Liu.” “If there are no accidents? Hehe… You’re really interesting!”
The white-haired old man chuckled and said seriously, “You’re right. I’m Liu Yunsheng. As for my identity… I believe you know it, right?”
“I do.”
Wang Xiao nodded without hiding anything. “I wonder why Boss Liu personally came to Kaiyang City and asked Manager Lin to find me?”
Liu Yunsheng looked at Wang Xiao with a faint smile. “Since you’re so smart, why don’t you guess first?”
Hearing this, Wang Xiao could not help but think to himself, “Cunning.”
At first glance, this question sounded like a small joke by an elder to close the distance, but in fact, it was a very brilliant trick.
Something must have happened for Liu Yunsheng to cause such a huge commotion, but only he knew what it was.
Now, he let Wang Xiao guess what it was. It was fine if he guessed correctly, but if he did not guess correctly and said something that Liu Yunsheng did not Imow, wouldn’t Wang Xiao jump into the fire pit himself?
Even if he was going to die anyway, there was still a difference between the types of death.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao rolled his eyes and said, “As the saying goes, the more you say, the more mistakes you make. Boss Liu, please enlighten me.”
“You’re really cunning.”
Liu Yunsheng sneered and sighed helplessly. “Then I’ll be straightforward. I’m here to see you.”
Wang Xiao was stunned when he heard this. “What’s there to see?”
Wang Xiao really did not know why, but he did not expect Liu Yunsheng’s expression to suddenly darken!
“You’re still pretending to be stupid at a time like this? Looks like you don’t have much responsibility!”
Liu Yunsheng shouted coldly with a dark expression. He reached into his pocket and took out a piece of paper before slapping it on the table. “Take a look for yourself!”
Confused, Wang Xiao had just picked up the piece of paper when a line of beautiful words were seen. “I’m going to Kaiyang City. Don’t look for me.”
“Brother Wang, you’re really capable!”
Lin Xiang leaned closer and whispered, “After climbing up such a high branch, you don’t have to worry about wealth in your next life!”
“What high branch? What are you talking about?”
Wang Xiao looked at Lin Xiang in confusion. A moment later, he suddenly thought of something and his expression changed. “Could this be written by Liu Yingying?”
“Obviously.”
Lin Xiang asked in return, “Other than Young Miss, who else can make the boss send out such a huge force? I really didn’t expect you to be so charming in the past!”
“Do you believe that I’ll beat you up if you continue spouting nonsense?”
“Boss Liu, I don’t understand what this has to do with me.”
“You still won’t admit it, right?”
Liu Yunsheng sneered and waved at Shen Tianlin impatiently. “Little Shen, tell him!”
“Yes.”
Shen Tianlin agreed and stood up from the sofa. He looked at Wang Xiao and asked coldly, “Do you still remember how you met Eldest Miss today?”
Seeing Wang Xiao nod, Shen Tianlin continued, “Then you should also remember that Eldest Miss left first after crying from anger, right?”
“Wait a moment!”
Wang Xiao raised his hand and interrupted Shen Tianlin’s memories. He frowned and said angrily, “You want to shift the blame, right? She clearly left in tears after chatting with you!”
“But she cried because of you.”
Shen Tianlin tried to explain himself. Before Wang Xiao could refute, he continued, ‘Moreover, after you left, Eldest Miss asked me a lot about you.
After that, Eldest Miss left this note and quietly left.”
“In view of the ins and outs of the entire matter and Eldest Miss’s attitude towards you, we have sufficient reason to suspect that Eldest Miss was instigated by you to run away from home this time. She might even have been deceived by you!”
Wang Xiao pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment. Finally, he could not help but ask, “Are you sick?”
Shen Tianlin was stunned for a moment before his expression darkened. “There’s evidence. Do you still want to deny it?”
“You call this evidence?”
Wang Xiao was so angry that he laughed. He shook the note in his hand and asked, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, “Which of the words on it say that she’s here to look for me?
Without waiting for Shen Tianlin to speak, Wang Xiao continued aggressively, “Also, you said that she asked you a lot about me? This is the first time the two of us met today. How much do you know about me?”
“This… I… she…’
Shen Tianlin was speechless. He could not say anything for a long time.
Seeing this, Wang Xiao sneered again.. He glanced at Liu Yunsheng and said faintly, “If you want to accuse me of something, you can always use any reason… Don’t tell me you’re looking for trouble to break the contract?”
