ch 117 – Lots of Drama; Beautiful Scholar (10)
As to whether they were going to wait for three months before entering Willow, they haven’t decided yet. The associate dean was enraged when he saw the three crippled students. He swore he will get justice for them!
Who was the culprit?
Ning Xunzong and the lot were certain this was done by the Cheng’s because they saw a few vines coming at them before they lost consciousness. And the only person who could have vines as weapon was none other than Cheng Xiao Xiao.
Not to mention that all the students who had been to the Cheng’s were thrown out of Willow by vines. All evidence point to the fact that the culprit must be Cheng Xiao Xiao.
But why did Cheng Xiao Xiao attacked them? This was another mystery. Even though he didn’t have an answer for that question, the associate dean still waved his hand and decided to go find out from Cheng Xiao Xiao the next day after he had gotten some rest.
After leaving Daling, Zhu Bo returned back to his own territory at the fastest speed possible along with his mystical animals and water.
Green Mountain Manor!
Zho Bo did not rest after returning to his manor but immediately summon his son into his study.
Not too much time had passed by when a straight-standing young man appeared in front of him. His handsome face looked a lot like that of Zhu Bo; he was, indeed, his son Zhu Xiangyu.
“Dad, you are home!” Zhu Xiangyu greeted his father, walked over, and sat down in an empty seat.
Zhu Bo nodded lightly and, looking at his just twenty year-old son, asked, “What’s the situation like in all the countries? I trust that nothing serious had happened?”
“Dad, what else could have happened? The most discussed topic currently is still the Cheng’s at Willow. It’s causing havoc in Dafeng.”
Recalling all the news and rumors about the Cheng’s lately, Zhu Bo couldn’t help but to smile brightly.
Casually leaning up against the chair, Zhu Xiangyu replied mindlessly and asked, “Dad, you just got back. Why did you summon me rather getting some rest?”
“Because I have things to discuss with you, of course!” Zhu Bo stared at his son who’d only relax in front of his own family and said lightly, “You don’t have much going on lately. So why don’t you make a trip for me and go back to Willow Village in Qing’an Province?”
“What? Willow again?”
Zhu Xiangyu furrowed his sword-like brows and said, “Dad, it seemed you have just arrived home, and from that exact place no less. Why do we need to go again? Something else happening at Willow Village?”
“Nothing’s happening!” replied Zhu Bo while shaking his head slightly, “I need you to make a delivery to the Cheng’s. Nothing could happen to this delivery.”
“Delivery?” Zhu Xiangyu looked much more serious and sat up straight, “Dad, do we need to invite the elders to discuss?”
“No need. I summoned you because I want to you take care of this. No need for the elders!” smiled Zhu Bo lightly. He thought about Cheng Xiao Xiao, and looked at his precious son in front of them, and felt very contended.
Zhu Xiangyu was very sensitive. He noticed the odd way that his father was looking at him and raised his defense, “Dad, are you plotting something else? Don’t try to set me up! Otherwise, I am not coming home ever again. I will go to mom’s and leave you here by yourself!”
“Cough, cough, cough…”
Zhu Bo was slightly embarrassed being blackmailed by his own son. He put on faked sternness and said, “What plot? I just want you to make a delivery to the Cheng’s. On top of that, I want you to stay for a while at Daling and keep an eye out on all the power players out there and the sales of the Cheng’s mystical water and animals. All these have much to do with our businesses, you understand?”
