Chapter 823 - 824: Biological Father and Stepmother
Driving along the winding mountain path, just when Yun Hao was about to fall asleep on Seductive Snake's back, they finally stopped!"Get off, the family rules forbid riding within a kilometer of the estate!" Seductive Snake patted his hand to signal Yun Hao to get off!
"What kind of ridiculous family rule is this?" Yun Hao held Seductive Snake's hand and walked towards the nearby gate of the Xiao Family!
"You're not allowed to say that. These are the rules set by my grandfather. He said although the family now has to contact the outside world for survival, when back at the family estate, the rules must be maintained!"
Seductive Snake lightly hit Yun Hao and explained softly.
"Grandfather's words make so much sense!" Yun Hao quickly flattered!
"He's my grandfather!"
"Don't be so formal. You're mine, isn't your grandfather my grandfather too?"
Oh, my, Seductive Snake realized that even though she already thought highly of Yun Hao's shamelessness, she was still repeatedly defeated by it!
Indeed, never underestimate Yun Hao's shamelessness, because you never know when he might redefine the word in your heart!
"Miss!"
Seductive Snake had just arrived at the Zhou Family gate with Yun Hao, when two men happily called out, welcoming them with smiles!
"Ah Biao, Ah De, it's your shift today, hurry and open the door!" Seductive Snake obviously knew the two gatekeepers, nodded with a smile, and instructed them.
"Yes, Miss!" The two replied with a smile, then quickly turned to open the door!
After entering the Xiao Family gate with Yun Hao, Seductive Snake walked straight to the depths of the estate!
Wow, this area is really enormous. If it were in Beijing, oh no, even just in Nanjiang City, a land this big would mean you never have to work in your life; you could just lie in bed and count money every day!
"Miss!"
"Miss!"
On the way, many servants respectfully and politely greeted Seductive Snake as Miss!
Seductive Snake greeted each of them with a smile in return!
"Little Meimei, I didn't realize you're quite respected!" Yun Hao grinned cheekily, and when no one was watching, secretly slapped Seductive Snake's rear!
"Hey, don't touch me, if someone sees, I won't be able to live!" Seductive Snake was nearly scared to death by Yun Hao's slap, immediately glaring at him furtively!
"Oh, my little Meimei has fears too, how novel!"
Yun Hao was very surprised that Seductive Snake had fears, not paying attention to the path, just sneakily observing Seductive Snake's charming face and occasionally slapping her alluring rear!
Seductive Snake hated Yun Hao all the way, this scoundrel nearly made her rear swollen; tonight, she is determined to teach him a lesson. Humph, let's see if he dares bully me in the future!
The two of them unconsciously reached the Xiao Family's main hall entrance, where many people had already gathered, clearly someone had reported their arrival!
"Little Mei, you're finally back, your grandfather has almost missed you to death!" First was a middle-aged man welcoming them, full of smiling expressions!
"Little Mei, it's been years since you last returned, this time you must settle your marriage; a girl's place is not out in the public all the time!"
Following closely was a richly dressed middle-aged woman, clearly of high standing, who hadn't suffered tough days!
"My marriage is none of your concern, I already have a boyfriend!" Seductive Snake showed no closeness towards the two, instead a bit of coldness!
After saying this, Seductive Snake pulled Yun Hao closer!
"Husband, look at your daughter; I'm also her elder, how could she have this attitude toward me? And bringing a man home; when did the marriage of Xiao Family children become something they decide themselves?"
The middle-aged woman's eyes filled with malice after hearing Seductive Snake's words, not at all like an elder, then she whined to the man who spoke first.
"Apologize to your mother, and I don't oppose you bringing this boy home, but marriage isn't for you to decide. Even if you don't like Hua Yang from the Hua Family, the elders must decide whom you'll marry!" The middle-aged man sternly instructed Seductive Snake, his tone full of indisputable authority!
"My mother is long dead, and my marriage won't be decided by you, I'm going to see grandfather!" What kind of person is Seductive Snake? How could she listen to them!
Moreover, this woman is the murderer of her mother, and this man is indirectly an accomplice, so Seductive Snake wouldn't heed them. Stopping to say a few words was already exceptional!
Indeed, these middle-aged folks are her father Xiao Dahai, and the mistress Hua Haojing who brought her son to Xiao Family, and angered her biological mother to death!
Interestingly, Hua Haojing is actually the aunt of Hua Qiang, the one with the arranged engagement with Seductive Snake!
Seductive Snake pulled Yun Hao's hand, bypassing Xiao Dahai and Hua Haojing, leading him into the hall, without acknowledging these so-called relatives!
Seductive Snake knew well that none of these relatives truly cared for her, although they busily arranged her marriage, it was only for the handsome dowry!
After all, Seductive Snake has a peculiar constitution, offering cultivation benefits to the man who takes her first time, making many young heirs eager to propose!
No one expected Yun Hao to accidentally steal it, otherwise his cultivation wouldn't have accelerated significantly since then!
"This child is increasingly unruly!"
"Since her mother died, she's been like a wild child!"
"Well, she's a girl, her father doesn't care!"
After Seductive Snake and Yun Hao entered the hall, those relatives began complaining one by one, without realizing if they'd ever truly regarded Seductive Snake as family.
"My dear granddaughter, you're finally back. Come, let grandpa see!" As they entered, Yun Hao noticed an elderly man with white hair but rosy cheeks sitting at the head, truly with the appearance of youthful longevity, with bright eyes not typical for a man over sixty!
