Chapter 774 The Grand Elder (1)
“Third Brother, did you forget that the Plum Garden is not for anyone to stay in?” Leng Rumei questioned with a face full of anger. She unintentionally saw Third Brother bringing a group of people she didn’t know back to Proud Cold City on the streets today, so she followed secretly curiously. However, she didn’t expect Third Brother to actually bring those people to the Plum Garden…
Plum Garden! That was the Leng family’s best side yard, but it had always been uninhabited. Moreover, when she happened to break through to Great Mystic on her twentieth birthday, she wanted to take the opportunity to ask the patriarch’s father for it. Who knew that her father actually didn’t agree to her request and even lied to her that the Plum Garden couldn’t decide. Hmph! So her father was biased and left the Plum Garden to her third brother. Thinking of this, she felt hatred in her heart! The Plum Garden had the word ‘Mei’, and her name had the word ‘Mei’. How suitable was it for her! However, she was now letting a group of outsiders stay. How could she choke down this anger!
“This is my business. You don’t have to worry about it,” Leng Wudi said impatiently. Then he dragged Leng Rumei out of the Plum Garden.
After Leng Wudi dragged Leng Rumei away, Leng Qingtian looked at the scenery of the Plum Garden and sighed. “Xue’er, it seems like the Leng family isn’t very peaceful either!” “Grandpa, it’s not strange for scheming in big families. It will naturally happen when there are many wives and children. Don’t worry too much. We won’t stay here for long,” Leng Ruoxue comforted.
“Okay, Feng Da, find your own rooms to stay in!” Leng Qingtian ordered and then wandered around the Plum Garden alone. Leng Ruoxue, Ruohan, and the freak had been following behind him worriedly.
“Alas! Grandpa misses the Ling Feng Continent’s home again,” Leng Ruohan said in realization. “Ah! I remember now. Big Brother, don’t you think that some of the decoration methods here are similar to our home in the Ling Feng Continent?” Leng Ruoxue couldn’t help asking. No wonder she felt that there was a sense of familiarity here. It turned out that some of the decorations in this Plum Garden were in the same direction as their original home. However, the decorations were different. Moreover, she clearly felt the aura of refinement from these decorations, and this yard full of blooming plum blossoms must have used special means. Otherwise, it would be impossible to bloom so luxuriously in this season!
“Yes, and I seem to have seen in some of the family’s records that a certain ancestor of our Leng family liked plum blossoms very much. However, our home in the Ling Feng Continent had been repaired several times, so the original plum tree had long disappeared,” Leng Ruohan explained.
Leng Qingtian had already strode to the three of them and asked loudly, “Brats, why are you following me?” “Grandpa, we didn’t follow you! We were also admiring the spring sunshine in the Plum Garden!” Leng Ruoxue said as if nothing had happened.
“Yes! Grandpa, we’re also admiring the scenery,” Leng Ruohan’s handsome and invincible face blushed as he explained softly.
“Oh!” Leng Qingtian finally turned his gaze to the freak and looked at him indifferently without saying anything. “Grandpa, I’ll accompany Xue’er,” the freak hurriedly explained.
“Oh, Xue’er, are you done admiring the spring sunshine of the Plum Garden?” Leng Qingtian asked with a smile.
“Okay,” the three of them answered softly.
“Do you feel anything?” Leng Qingtian asked expectantly. “No, the scenery is beautiful,” Leng Ruoxue interrupted. “What else?”
“Gone!”
“How can it be gone? I vaguely heard someone say that this place is a little familiar just now.” Leng Qingtian was a little angry.
“Grandpa, I didn’t say that,” Leng Ruoxue quickly denied.
“Me neither.”
Leng Ruohan and the freak quickly denied it.
“Don’t worry, I won’t be affected. There is indeed a shadow of our family here,” Leng Qingtian said lightly. He didn’t know about his grandchildren, but he remembered them very clearly. However, he also knew that this didn’t mean anything. After all, this was the Leng family’s property.
“Grandpa, don’t think too much. Let’s take things as they come. With our current strength, there’s absolutely no one who can force us, so let nature take its course,” Leng Ruoxue comforted. In fact, she had already guessed that it was most likely someone related to the Ling Feng Continent from the moment Leng Wudi said that someone wanted to see them. She might not want to see him, but she couldn’t avoid Leng Wudi’s pestering. However, if that person looked pleasing to the eye, there was no harm in dating him. If that person wanted to have any bad ideas, then don’t blame her for being heartless.
“Yes, Xue’er is right. Since we’re here, let’s take it easy. Let’s go get some food and then rest early to recover so that we can deal with the Leng family!” Leng Qingtian said with a face full of relief.
With that, the grandfather and granddaughter came to the garden together, and Feng Da and the others had already prepared food.
Everyone returned to their rooms to rest after dinner…
At the Leng family’s residence.
The Leng family’s main residence was located in the south of Proud Cold City. Moreover, the entire south belonged to the Leng family’s territory. Outsiders were not allowed to step foot here unless they obtained permission.
Leng Wudi dragged his half-sister back to the main mansion and went directly to the forbidden area in the back mountain. Leng Rumei naturally went to complain to the patriarch’s father, Leng Yimin, who loved her the most.
Leng Rumei heard that her father was in the meeting hall and ran directly here. However, she was stopped by the guards outside the door.
“I’m sorry, Eldest Miss. The patriarch is having a meeting with the elders. You can’t enter,” the guard said coldly and politely. “How dare you! Do you know who I am? How dare you stop me!” Leng Rumei’s temper rose. She had a belly full of anger at Leng Wudi just now but had nowhere to vent it. Now, she was stopped by a small guard, so the fire on her body ignited!
“You are not allowed to enter even if you are the most favored eldest daughter of the Leng family,” the guard said coldly. “How dare you! Guards, arrest him!” Leng Rumei roared and ordered the other two guards.
“Eldest Miss, please forgive us. This is our duty,” the other two guards replied neither servile nor overbearing.
