Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1696: Chapter 124: The Joy of Shou Ye Is Beyond Your Imagination

…

Yao Chengchao, standing to the side, also suddenly felt an invisible aura of murderous energy spreading around, and he couldn’t help but nervously swallow.

What happened? Why did the atmosphere suddenly turn so tense and murderous?

“This sister is so beautiful,” Wang Lixian saw the tense atmosphere and couldn’t help but move forward, eyes sparkling as she said, “Hmm~ and she smells so nice too. I wonder if you’re married? If you need, you could consider my father, Wang Shouzhe.”

“?”

The Duchess of Luo Jia initially had a good impression of the beautiful and tender Lixian, so she didn’t resist her approach. But the latter words made her face blush instantly: “Little girl, don’t talk nonsense. I’m not interested in your father… Wait a minute, your father is Wang Shouzhe? Isn’t he Shou Ye’s elder brother?”

Her mood suddenly brightened, and she immediately understood everything.

She hurriedly smoothed her clothes, and nervously and politely bowed to the Nine Tails Demon Emperor: “So it’s sister-in-law who has arrived, Ling Xiao apologizes for not welcoming you from afar; forgive me, forgive me.”

Sister-in-law?

This title reveals quite a lot of information~

The Nine Tails Demon Emperor also sensitively noticed the anomaly, her red lips curled into a teasing smile: “You must have mistaken me for someone else, I’m not your sister-in-law.”

The Duchess of Luo Jia was taken aback, her pretty face immediately turned awkward: “It was rude of Ling Xiao. Ling Xiao and Shou Ye are confidants, um, we’re friends…”

“What I mean is, I’m not Wang Shouzhe’s wife.” The Nine Tails Demon Emperor chuckled, “You don’t need to explain to me what your relationship is with your family’s Shou Ye.”

“…”

For a moment, the Duchess of Luo Jia was so embarrassed she wished she could crawl into a hole.

Indeed, concern leads to chaos, and she inadvertently caused a misunderstanding.

She had to awkwardly change the topic: “Then what is this sister’s relationship with Young Master Shouzhe?”

“Don’t misunderstand, I definitely do not want to have anything to do with that scheming old fox Wang Shouzhe. I’m just afraid that one day he might sell me and I’d still have to count the money for him.” The Nine Tails Demon Emperor spoke of Wang Shouzhe with obvious wariness, “He and I are purely in an employment relationship.”

“Nonsense, you are Shouzhe brother’s mother-in-law.” The Firefox Chiwei in her arms was unhappy and started wagging its tail aggressively, “Moreover, don’t casually slander my brother Shouzhe. Isn’t it just that your several uses of the Charm Technique didn’t work on Brother Shouzhe? That just shows Brother Shouzhe’s firm will, totally devoted only to me and Sister Ruolan.”

“To be able to resist even my Charm Technique, isn’t such a person terrifying?” The Nine Tails Demon Emperor’s beautiful peach blossom eyes widened slightly as she looked down at her daughter, “Do you dare provoke him?”

“That’s because you’re old, naturally lacking attraction! When I take on Little Snow’s form after shaping up, Brother Shouzhe will definitely like it.”

“You little beast, you’re driving me mad…”

The fox mother and daughter began bickering with each other again.

The Duchess of Luo Jia watched from the side, eyes dazed.

Shou Ye’s fourth brother’s love life is really complex and lively~ Why is Shou Ye so simple? It’s nothing but alchemy, day in and day out.

As for Yao Chengchao standing to the side, he was even more speechless.

He could see it now; the Duchess of Luo Jia seemed quite fond of Wang Shouye. And that fox mother and daughter duo, they both seemed to have some interest in Shouzhe.

But they were clearly people with wives…

As Yao Chengchao thought of this, he couldn’t help but feel sour and envious.

Here he was, Yao Chengchao, wholeheartedly focused on his career, and still unmarried. Why hasn’t any girl come to him voluntarily?

After all, he’s one of the hot talents of the Immortal Dynasty now~

Seeing the big and small foxes bickering more intensely, even starting to expose each other’s secrets, the Duchess of Luo Jia finally couldn’t stand it and interrupted them: “Ahem, let’s get down to business first.”

“Alright, let’s talk business first.” The Nine Tails Demon Emperor snapped back to attention, glared at Yuwen Chiwei before she looked seriously back at the Duchess of Luo Jia and said, “Wang Shouzhe summoned me to Beizhou firstly to protect Shou Ye’s safety, and secondly, there are some things to convey, which require him to communicate directly with Shou Ye.”

“Protect his safety?” The Duchess of Luo Jia slightly furrowed her dainty eyebrows, “He stays home doing alchemy all day long, and I haven’t seen him for half a month. What could be unsafe?”

“The specific situation depends on what Wang Shouzhe has to say, after all, he’s the one in charge.” The Nine Tails Demon Emperor replied, “But for confidentiality’s sake, any unrelated people should leave first.”

“Everyone, out.”

The Duchess of Luo Jia understood and waved her hand, and the maids and guards wisely bowed and retreated.

Soon, only the Nine Tails Demon Emperor, the Duchess of Luo Jia, Yao Chengchao, Wang Lixian, and Yuwen Chiwei remained in the reception hall.

The Nine Tails Demon Emperor’s gaze fell on Yao Chengchao.

Yao Chengchao, full of confusion, pointed to his own nose and said, “I have to leave too?”

“Hehe~” The Nine Tails Demon Emperor’s face was smiling, but her words were not polite at all, “This is Wang family’s matter, what does it have to do with your Yao family? If you refuse to leave, I don’t mind throwing you out.”

Yao Chengchao was full of indignation: “That’s too much! When I became a confidant to Master Shouzhe, you Nine Tails Demon Emperor, didn’t even know where you were! Hum, anyway you have the bigger fist, I’ll tolerate you!”

Although he grumbled with his mouth, his body had already turned in direction and started heading out. By the time he spoke the last line, he was already nowhere to be seen.
