Wrong Marriage: The CEO's Sweet Bride
Chapter 1522 Really Hungry
After a reply from the other end, the communication ended.
The old man reached out to pick up the wine glass at hand, swirled the liquid in the glass a few times, brought it to his lips, and drank it down in one gulp.
Putting down the empty cup, he yelled towards the door.
After a while, the housekeeper came in.
He asked lightly: "Has there been any movement from those people these two days?"
The steward knew who he was asking, and said, "No, since the last attempt to sneak into our manor failed, he has been squatting nearby. However, since last night, people have been withdrawn one after another."
"It suddenly became interesting."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, hurried footsteps sounded outside.
"My lord, there is an emergency!"
The butler looked at the people who came in, and consciously stepped aside.
The Duke of Ston spit out a word calmly: "Say."
The visitor immediately reported: "Xin Sheng from the Dragon Kingdom suddenly appeared at the embassy. I don't know when he came. It seems that...he has already met King George. Just this morning, he brought King George's search warrant. ordered to enter the base of the medical competition, saying that he wanted to investigate clues about Qin Shu's disappearance."
A strange color flashed in Duke Ston's blue eyes, "Oh? This General Xin is really a good father."
The housekeeper said casually: "Even if he turned the base upside down, he still couldn't find where his daughter was."
Duke Ston snorted lightly, and said leisurely: "I'm afraid his purpose of this trip is not just to find someone... Did he only ask King George for a search warrant?"
"They met in secret, so I don't know what they talked about. By the way...King George suddenly mentioned at the meeting today that the Dragon Kingdom proposed that the Alliance Army besiege the X Auction House."
"..."
The room fell into a brief silence, and after a while, Duke Ston said in a deep voice, "Xin Cheng...you are causing me trouble."
He looked at the figure in front of him, ordered a few words, waved and said, "Go."
The other party was about to leave when it suddenly occurred to him that there was still one piece of news that had not been reported.
"By the way, Lord Duke, Xin You has appeared. When Xin Sheng searched the competition base, Xin You was also there."
Duke Ston seemed to be taken aback, then shook his head with a smile, and said with emotion: "Camelin... I really didn't wrong you!"
But now that girl is getting her due.
Those who dare to betray him must have the consciousness that life would be worse than death!
After the people left, Duke Ston looked at the butler who was still in the room, and ordered, "Have someone check the base."
The butler immediately understood his intentions, "Master Duke, do you think Xin Sheng and the others are looking for someone?"
"That's impossible to say."
……
At this moment, inside the embassy.
He Haitao prepared rich food to reward everyone.
Xin Sheng patted him on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Old He, it's not time for a celebration banquet now."
Being patted on the shoulder by him, He Haitao couldn't help feeling a little panicked. He explained with a sneer: "It's not that everyone is tired and hungry after a hard day. I just want everyone to have a good meal and go back to rest."
As he spoke, he pointed in a certain direction, "Look, I'm really hungry."
Xin Sheng looked over with disapproval, and saw Xin You sitting at the big round table at a glance. Chopsticks were flying on the table, chewing quickly in his mouth, and he was devouring it like a hungry ghost reincarnated.
Is that his son?
A disgusted expression appeared on Xin Sheng's face.
He Haitao said: "Xin You has been out these few days, and he probably suffered a lot."
Xin Sheng didn't speak, but looked at Xin You thoughtfully.
After a while, he walked over and sat down next to him.
"Eat slowly, don't choke yourself!"
While talking, he poured a glass of water and put it in front of Xin You.
Xin You was concentrating on eating, but he didn't expect his father to sit over suddenly. Isn't he at Uncle He's table?
Swallowing what was in his mouth, he picked up the water glass, "Thank you, father."
After dinner.
After eating and drinking, Xin You got up and was about to leave.
Xin Sheng glanced at him and called him to stop, "Where are you going?"
Xin You's eyes flashed, and he said hesitantly, "I still have something to do."
"Come back to the room with me, I have something to talk to you."
When Xin Sheng was serious, he was majestic and upright, which made people dare not resist.
Xin You clenched his palms tightly and had no choice but to follow behind him.
Back in the room, Xin Sheng didn't rush to speak, but waited for Xin You to close the door, and motioned, "Sit down and talk."
Xin You moved the chair, sat beside him, and asked curiously, "Father, what are you going to tell me?"
"I heard that you made a girlfriend here." Xin Sheng said unexpectedly.
Xin You's expression changed, and he quickly said, "It's not a girlfriend, it's just a female friend, and...she..."
"She's still a member of the Ston family, and she's going to marry Bud Joblin in a few days."
Xin Sheng helped him finish his sentence, looked at him with insightful eyes, and pointed out: "You just wanted to find her, right?"
Xin You opened his mouth, and finally admitted frankly: "Yes, because I found out that I had some misunderstandings about her before, so I want to ask her face to face."
Xin Sheng didn't make a statement, but looked at him calmly, nodded and said, "Well, tell me about you and her in detail."
Seeing that his father didn't want to blame himself, Xin You couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He thought for a while, and told the story of himself and A Yin's encounter and misunderstanding without any concealment.
At the end, he said angrily: "Actually, I should have thought about it a long time ago. If she really wanted to harm us, why did she deliberately prevent me from seeing the text messages sent by Xiao Ma? If I saw those messages, I would definitely tell Xiao Ma and the others went together."
"The orphanage funded by the Ston family only accepts girls so that the Duke of Ston can train them as a tool for profit. Over the years, A Yin has been doing his best to save those girls. But the strength of the Duke of Ston It's too big, she can only quietly send those girls to a remote mountain village out of the reach of the Ston family, so as not to be discovered by the Duke of Ston..."
"But now, the Duke of Ston suddenly wants to marry her to Bud Joblin. I heard some rumors about Bud and his son on the way... She can't marry that kind of person!
When Xin You said the last sentence, his tone was extremely firm.
Xin Sheng looked at him, and suddenly sighed softly, "It seems that you are really moved by this girl named A Yin."
"Father, I..." Xin You hesitated to speak.
Xin Sheng put his hand on his shoulder and encouraged him: "Son, it's no big deal to admit your feelings openly. And—"
He paused, and said in a deep voice: "The daughter-in-law you are looking for is a very good little girl! In the environment of the Ston family, she can still maintain her kindness and bravery. Meet her in person."
The old man reached out to pick up the wine glass at hand, swirled the liquid in the glass a few times, brought it to his lips, and drank it down in one gulp.
Putting down the empty cup, he yelled towards the door.
