Chapter 349 Prayer 3
"He... is dark and cold. He's like a robot... He doesn't have any respect and love for the Patriarch and Mistress, but he just ignores the young master."

"It doesn't look like the young master's younger brother at all. To put it bluntly, the atmosphere around him doesn't look like a child."

Patriarch Xiao nodded in satisfaction.

"You speak well. If you ask anyone, the answer is probably the same as yours."

"At that time... that's right, when Xiao Licheng was nine years old, it was the first time Xiao Licheng entered the Xiao family's gate."

Ye Tao frowned and said, "You mean..."

Patriarch Xiao looked up at the sky.

"That is to say, it was on that day that he met his nominal father and mother for the first time. Oh, yes, and his elder brother."

The... first time? ?

"How...how could it be the first time!"

Patriarch Xiao turned his head, looked at Ye Tao, and continued, "Are you interested in continuing to listen?"

Ye Tao nodded. "If I want to assist the second young master, I must convince myself."

The Patriarch took advantage of the situation and walked back to the room, sat in the seat that Xiao Licheng had used, looked at the sunny weather outside and said, "Okay, then I will tell you about it."

"Xiao Liming is actually not my wife's first child. He is my wife's second child."

"The first child was aborted because someone framed her. At that time, my wife was seriously frustrated. I thought she couldn't accept it anymore, and couldn't cheer up until..."

"Until I became pregnant with Xiao Liming. Because of the previous lessons, this child is more important to us than anything else."

"Finally, Xiao Liming was born after twists and turns. As everyone wished, he was healthy. My wife also slowly recovered her smile."

Having said that, he sighed helplessly.

"But... the most worrying thing happened. That is to decide the successor of the Xiao family. The members of the Xiao family are determined to inherit my blood, but my wife is not willing. He thinks that the head of the Xiao family is too dangerous, even if We can protect it when we are young, but what about later?"

Ye Tao frowned and asked, "Won't you have the ability to protect yourself when you grow up?"

Patriarch Xiao nodded and said, "A lot of people persuaded her like this at the time. But she just didn't want to. Because the mental state is not very stable, so we think that if we continue to stimulate it, there is really no other way."

"When everyone was helpless, someone proposed it. It was to let my wife have another child."

"I didn't want this child originally, but out of respect, I asked my wife for her opinion."

"To everyone's surprise, she agreed."

agreed?
Ye Tao felt a little uneasy and said, "That is to say...the second child is..."

Patriarch Xiao let out a long sigh.

"That's why I said, everything is fate. Since Xiao Licheng was not born, he was destined to become the head of the family."

Then, if it goes on like this, Xiao Licheng is completely like an accessory!Xiao Licheng was born because she didn't want to hurt Xiao Liming?
But if you think about it this way, everything is contradictory!

Ye Tao asked suspiciously, "But...but in the end, didn't you still say that the young master is the heir to the outside world? Isn't that still very dangerous, so why did you give birth to the second young master?"

"This... This is very contradictory! You obviously don't want to hurt the young master, but you still use him as bait..."
