Chapter 48: Prelude to Divorce
Utan City, Xiao family.
"Young Master Xiao Yan is really a genius, he practiced qi at the age of four, it seems that our Xiao family may have to rely on Young Master Xiao Yan in the future."
"Indeed, practicing qi at the age of four, this is not much in the Douqi Continent, right? However, the most important thing is the Nalan family, and Young Master Xiao Yan has a marriage contract with the eldest lady of the Nalan family. ”
"Anyway, I think Young Master Xiao Yan is still worthy of Nalan Yanran, isn't it just a year later than Nalan Yanran to practice qi?"
"Hey."
Xiao Yan successfully practiced Qi not long ago and became a fighter with a fighting spirit, which can be said to be crazy in Utan City, and Xiao Yan's talent was also praised by everyone.
Especially the people of the Xiao family even regard Xiao Yan as someone who can lead the rise of the Xiao family, and it can be regarded that many people in the Xiao family value Xiao Yan.
At this time, the Xiao family courtyard.
"Yan'er, cultivate your fighting spirit well, only then can you work hard to be worthy of Nalan Yanran." Xiao Zhan quietly looked at the four-year-old boy in front of him.
Although Xiao Yan's little face was too immature, there was a faint look of perseverance in his eyes.
To be honest, Xiao Yan was a little curious about Miss Nalan who had a marriage contract with him, but as an earth traveler, he didn't like this kind of marriage very much, but this world is the most prosperous with fighting energy, Xiao Yan is currently thinking about cultivating fighting energy, and he already likes the feeling of this fighting energy flowing in his body.
"Father, then why don't we go to Nalan Mansion to have a look?" Xiao Yan is very strange, why the family has never gone to Nalan Mansion in these years, it stands to reason that the status of Nalan Mansion in the Gama Empire is much higher than their Xiao family, but since he came to this world, he learned that he and Nalan Yanran have a marriage contract, and they have never been to the imperial capital.
"The Xiao family has declined, it doesn't matter if Nalan Mansion goes now or not, as long as we still have a relationship with the Nalan family, whether it is Utan City or the Gama Empire, no one dares to bully our Xiao family." Xiao Zhan said seriously.
"Besides, don't you want to go to the Nalan family?" Xiao Zhan glanced at Xiao Yan, and he could see that Xiao Yan didn't attach importance to this marriage contract.
"That's right, there has never been such a thing as a man visiting a woman." Xiao Yan nodded, in the Douqi Continent, the status of women is much lower than that of men, Xiao Yan, who is already a traverser, is already in his twenties at heart, and he can be regarded as very aware of this kind of thing.
"But the Nalan family is stronger than our Xiao family after all, so it's not good not to visit, okay?" Xiao Yan didn't understand Xiao Zhan's intentions, he just felt that the matter of the marriage contract should never be contacted.
He still doesn't know if the eldest lady of the Nalan family is beautiful or not, what if she is too ugly?
"That's it, you just pay attention to cultivating your fighting spirit, don't worry too much." Xiao Zhan didn't want to answer Xiao Yan's question because he also had his own plans.
"Alright, father, then I'll leave first." Looking at Xiao Yan's back, Xiao Zhan couldn't help but sigh and muttered to himself, "Since Xin'er left, the Xiao family has been much empty. ”
"Fortunately, Yan'er's talent is good, Xin'er should be satisfied."
Suddenly, a voice interrupted Xiao Zhan's contemplation.
"Patriarch, the head of the Nalan family has come to visit and is waiting for you in the Xiao family's reception hall."
"Brother Nalan?" Xiao Zhan's face couldn't help but be a little happy, he didn't expect Gu Bei to take the initiative to come.
……
"Daddy, the Xiao family doesn't seem to be doing well here, and the people in this family are a little weak." Nalan Yanran was sitting on Gu Bei's left hand side at this time, looking at the Xiao family with a curious expression.
It's just that the cultivation of these people is a little low, at least in Nalan Yanran's opinion, it is very low.
"Don't talk nonsense, now in other people's homes, you should always show a little respect and don't be rude." Gu Bei said lightly, no matter how the Xiao family declined, it was once one of the eight ancient clans, but the current Xiao family is also weak.
"I'm just telling the truth." Nalan Yanran pursed her lips, Gu Lingxian on Gu Bei's right hand had a cold face, she didn't like this Xiao family even more now, and when she came to visit the Xiao family, she didn't see a master come to greet her.
"This Xiao family is also too rude, half an hour has passed, and no one has come yet." Gu Lingxian said coldly.
"Don't worry." Gu Bei gently touched Gu Lingxian's little head, and then said, "Anyway, I'm here to visit someone else's family, don't say such things." ”
"And no one heard."
Just as Gu Bei was talking to Nalan Yanran and Gu Lingxian, a few figures finally walked in at the door, and the leader was Xiao Zhan, the head of the Xiao family, and several old men behind him should be the elders of the Xiao family, but Gu Bei just glanced at it.
"Brother Nalan, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you are still so young." Xiao Zhan said to Gu Bei with a smile, and then looked at the two little girls beside Gu Bei.
This made Xiao Zhan a little embarrassed, he couldn't tell which one was Nalan Yanran and which was the Nalan Lingxian, but Xiao Zhan still stubbornly said: "Yanran's niece and Lingxian niece are also here, welcome to our Xiao family as a guest." ”
"Say hello to your Uncle Xiao." Gu Bei said lightly.
"Hello Uncle Xiao." Nalan Yanran and Gu Lingxian said in unison, after Xiao Zhan walked in, he sat on the main seat after greeting Gu Bei for a few words, and several elders sat opposite Gu Bei.
"I don't know which is Yanran's niece and which is Lingxian's niece?" Xiao Zhan was a little embarrassed.
"I'm Nalan Yanran." Nalan Yanran is not very comfortable in her heart, no one else knows her, how can she be comfortable.
It seems that this marriage must be withdrawn, and the Xiao family doesn't attach importance to this marriage contract at all, and she doesn't need to pay attention to it.
"We met it a few years ago when my niece was a baby." Xiao Zhan smiled to ease his embarrassment, he did regret a little why he didn't go to Nalan Mansion to visit in the past few years.
"Oh." Nalan Yanran didn't know how to accept Xiao Zhan's words, so she responded lightly.
Xiao Zhan coughed a few words in embarrassment, then looked at Gu Bei and asked, "I don't know why Brother Nalan came this time?" ”
At this time, the door of the hall was also full of Xiao family members, they just wanted to see what Gu Bei, who was known as the strongest man in the Yanggama Empire, looked like, and squeezed out a boy from the crowd.
"Which one is my fiancée?" Xiao Yan rubbed his head a little confused, but it didn't take long for Xiao Yan to smile and whisper: "No matter which one is my fiancée, it seems that they are all beautiful embryos now!" ”
For Xiao Yan, as long as his fiancée is not ugly, it is almost in line with his wishes, although he doesn't like this kind of arranged marriage very much.
After just a sentence in the reception hall, the audience fell silent.
"Divorce."
