Inferior dominance

Chapter 24 The servant is injured

The old man lowered his head slightly, the light failed to illuminate his deep eye sockets, which made him look a little more alienated than before, his voice was a little hoarse, I don't know if this is caused by the accident just now, logically speaking, The accident just now should have given people a feeling of pity for their lives and fear, but such a look did not appear on the old man's face at all.

At this moment, what he is telling me is what I thought I would never be able to touch, the deepest things in the Yu family.

"We can make a hypothesis." The fingers were slightly pressed together, and the father raised his eyes to stare at me, "If I want A Xiao to assist Qing Shu in the future, what will happen?"

This is an unbelievable question. In my opinion, Ji Xiao will never be able to assist the elder brother. However, before I can prepare words in my mind, my father directly told me the answer:

"A Xiao will die."

What?Why?I don't understand why Dad would give such an answer, but he didn't need my question, and soon, he threw another question:

"If I ask you to assist Qing Shu in the future, and Ah Xiao is exiled from the Yu family, what will happen?"

Varied……

"Qingshu will die, and you will not have a good result."

He finished talking on his own, and then raised questions in a hoarse voice: "If I want Ah Xiao to sit in my seat and ask you to assist, and Qingshu starts a new business, what will happen?"

This is simply impossible!Not to mention that big brother is a good heir, what do you do by starting a new family?How could Ji Xiao become the heir?Could this be another deeper plan of the old man, or maybe there is something else among them that I don't know about...

"Don't be nervous kids, it's just a hypothesis."

That's right, hypothetical, I tell myself hypothetical, it's only hypothetical.

But Pa said, "It might keep them both alive at the same time."

"What do you think of the fourth child?" Dad stared at me with no extra expression on his face. This was the first time that he mentioned Yu Jingsheng in front of me after that incident. It was very strange. This question seems to have been asked a long time ago.

I laughed and didn't try to be gentle, "How do you want me to answer?"

"He was originally a good boy, not bad in nature, but a little stupid... and Boss, he is too naive." As if he didn't care about my opinion, the old man asked himself again, "Qing Shu is too restless. Angry, it should have occurred to me that when he first asked me about that woman, I knew it would be a hidden danger."

"Little lamp, you have to be principled in everything." The old man leaned back and leaned lazily on the back of the chair. It was getting late, and his eyes showed fatigue, "Song Tong is not my woman, if I spend money to support her , then the mother of the fourth child, the mother of the fifth child, I can't explain to them, this is the contract that has already been signed, even if Qing Shu grows up, it is unreasonable to break the established rules."

It was very surprising that my father was willing to tell me about this kind of thing. Afterwards, I tried to analyze the specific reasons why he did so. After thinking about it, the only answer may be "I am not from the Yu family".

Of course I understood what my father meant, "I will pass this on to my elder brother."

Dad didn't say yes or no, he just slowly closed his eyes and then opened them slightly, which I regarded as his nodding.

"Xiao Deng," the father's tone finally became tough, "I need you to stand by Ah Xiao or Qing Shu from now on, no matter who will become the final one between them."

Sitting opposite him, I paused for about five seconds before I nodded slowly: "Yes, Dad, if you decide so."

Maybe I should resist, there is a voice in my heart echoing in my ears like this.

I want to be a drama actor, I remember telling you that when I first came back, I had already arranged my future life abroad, and it was you who insisted on calling me back to the Yu family...

Speak, speak!There is a force in my heart urging me, but I looked at my father, but I couldn't say a word, because I suddenly thought of my mansion, yes, the mansion is still in the hands of my father, if he is not happy, he will take it What if I gave it to Ji Xiao?

Dad is old, he probably won't live long, maybe I should wait until he can no longer control me, then I don't need to listen to anyone anymore, the favor of the Yu family to me is also With such a write-off, as long as I work hard for the Yu family for a while longer, I will be able to owe no one to anyone in the future...

Then my father told me a lot in a scattered way.

Without him, it's all about the Yu family's children.

He said that he knew he owed the boss, so he had been treating him well, but in the end the boss still made a mistake.

He said that the third child has always been happy, and like his mother, he stayed away from the Yu family's locks. If he left the Yu family in the future, Yue Mo would be able to live well.

He said that the fourth child was spoiled by Aunt Lan to the point of lawlessness, but it is rare to have such a child in the Yu family. He has always liked him, as long as he does not make too many mistakes.

The fifth and sixth are girls, the fifth is more lively than the sixth, the fifth is a good boy, even if he leaves the Lin family in the future, he can have a good life relying on the Yu family alone, and the sixth, she is too old Small and somewhat taciturn, Dad wasn't sure he'd ever see her fully grown.

Dad's voice is very slow, from which I can tell that he may really, really love his children.

"Little lamp," he finally mentioned me, "You have always been the most special existence. I have always let you participate in family gatherings, and I also regard you as a family member. To this family, you are like a The balance of stability, I hope you will never underestimate your status."

When I said this, I was standing at the door with my hand lightly on the doorknob. Looking back, I looked at the old man who I thought would forget me, and I didn't know what to feel for a while.

Are these words of comfort?Emotionally told me it probably wasn't, because Dad was sitting there and I knew he never lied.

"A Xiao...Sorry, I'm a little sleepy." In the end, the old man only slowly read Ji Xiao's name, and he slowly closed his eyes as he spoke.

After all, I couldn't hear his evaluation of Ji Xiao.

Standing at the door, I stared at the old man who was sitting on the chair. His body looked a bit plump now, but that appearance made people feel peaceful for no reason, as if the person sitting in front of me was not the one I remembered. Dad, but an unknown old man who slowly fell asleep in the rocking chair.

I didn't dare to wake him up, and in the end I just gently covered him with the quilt on his bed. Perhaps the moment I walked out of that door, I suddenly felt... I didn't seem to hate him anymore.

Yuemo was because he was finally able to fall asleep like that before my eyes without any precautions. I felt helpless, and only then did I realize that something that had been stagnant in my heart could dissipate so easily.

For this trip, we stayed for two days less than the original plan. At first I thought it was because of the rain. The third child kept suggesting to wait for the rain to stop before leaving, but a gesture from the eldest brother made him shut up.

I know we can only obey the arrangement of Big Brother.

So, I don't know the specific reason why I returned to Yu's house early this time. On the day I left, in the car in the rain, my father looked as usual, but my elder brother got out of the car halfway with a serious expression, and disappeared into the rain curtain , In the evening, I changed my outfit again and returned to our car under the umbrella.

During the period, the rain didn’t stop, and it even started to fall more and more heavily. I leaned against the car window and looked at the scenery outside. From a distance, I seemed to hear gunshots coming from behind, as if from afar. But when I listened carefully, I felt that it was just raindrops hitting the roof of the car or the leaves.

It was getting late when I returned to the mansion, butler Zhang greeted me at the door as usual, I took his umbrella and went back to the mansion, only to find that Ji Xiao was not at home.

"Mr. Ji Xiao has been outside all the time you have been out these days." This is the answer given by Butler Zhang.

When I went back to my room, I found that the original pajamas had disappeared. I asked housekeeper Zhang, and he said that he didn't see it. It was normal to see that there were a few more styles in the closet, so he put them on before going to bed.

The silk material feels good to wear, but it is a little thin.

In the middle of the night, I was lying on the bed, thinking I was asleep, but when I faintly heard the sound of the door being opened, I opened my eyes involuntarily.

When I walked out the door, because the clothes were too thin, I even felt that the cold air in the corridor was hitting my body unimpeded.

Downstairs, I heard movement from the living room. Butler Zhang was talking. Ji Xiao's voice was extremely low-frequency, which sounded very penetrating to me. Sure enough, he came back.

At the top of the stairs, I put my hand on the wooden guardrail, and after walking down a few steps, I can see Ji Xiao who is sitting on the sofa at the moment.

The bullet on the shoulder was taken out by the family doctor and placed on a plate with a crisp sound. Ji Xiao's expression was indifferent, as if he didn't feel anything. Only when I took another step down, he turned his face. The falcon-like eyes were so tightly locked on me.

Now that he had seen me, I also walked quickly. In order not to disturb the person who treated his wound, I just stood on the edge of the sofa and watched quietly.

As if aware of my sight, Ji Xiao smiled casually, but he didn't speak, but after the doctor finished everything, he slightly nodded his forehead to indicate that the other party could leave.

No one in the room said anything, even Butler Zhang just reminded me to "go back to the room early to sleep" before leaving.

Soon, Ji Xiao and I were the only ones left in the living room.

At first Ji Xiao ignored me, and only dimmed the lights with the remote control, "The atmosphere is suitable for a little darker now." He said, he turned his face, "How are you doing these days?"

I said, "It's not bad." I really wanted to ask him what happened to the injury on his shoulder, but I felt that he would change the subject, so I said in a devious way: "Have you suffered this injury many times?"

"It's more than once anyway." As he said, Ji Xiao pointed slightly to the scars on his body. To be honest, his body was so sexy that I avoided looking at it because I was a little embarrassed before, but now... when my eyes touched Only when you see his skin can you really understand it.

"Do you want to laugh," Ji Xiao sneered, "or express your concern with a few false condolences."

Well, I don't seem like a good compassionate person in his mind.

"Don't you feel any pain?" In this way, I saved some words, and I said, "You don't change your face when you take a bullet. Was it the same when you were injured for the first time?"

Ji Xiao looked up, his thoughts seemed to drift away, "Don't ask me about things so long ago, I really can't remember."

Did he mean that his first injury was a long time ago?That's right, maybe it was when I didn't know him.

"Ran Deng," Ji Xiao said in an unfriendly tone, "If you act sympathetic, I will beat you, I swear."

Well, it looks like I annoyed him again with my expression, as if I went downstairs just to hear him tease me.

Feeling slightly embarrassed in his heart, he felt that instead of arguing with him about these empty words, it would be better to go back to the room and sleep for a while.

I stood up, "It's not that complicated. I heard you coming back and wanted to see how you are doing. It's as simple as that."

But at this moment he grabbed me again.

"Tell me how you talked to the old man this time." Ji Xiao was very strong, this head was clearly connected to his injured shoulder, but he was able to pull me back to the seat with brute force without changing his expression. "Don't you want to be... a drama actor? Don't tell me you suddenly changed your gender."

At first I didn't understand what he was saying, but the next time I thought about it, I thought I understood.

The previous conversation at night...it seems that Ji Xiao knew about my father's expectations of me, he said...he wanted to train me to be his assistant.

"Is it old eyes?" Ji Xiao looked me up and down, and there was no lack of sarcasm in his eyes, "Before he thought that Yu Jingsheng could inherit his position, but now he thinks that you can assist the next Patriarch, and go to the doctor in an emergency?" He said, As if laughing at his own joke, Ji Xiao snorted coldly, "How did you tell him?"

How to say?How can I tell him?

"Okay, let's change the question." Ji Xiao let go of my wrist, "Has he asked your opinion?"

"He never needs to ask me." I didn't want to say this to Ji Xiao at this time, but it seemed like I was complaining in front of him, "I will do what my father wants me to do. He gave me The conditions of life require me to do what I should.”

Actually not, what I think is, if I can't wait for the day when my father lets me go, I will simply show my mediocrity and incompetence directly, so that the old man thinks that I am also difficult to be a big responsibility.

However, my words did distort Ji Xiao's expression for a moment, and the corners of his lips hooked viciously, "Okay, let's change the question."

"My brother Qingshu and you, who do you want more?"
