Translator: 549690339
In the living room, Shi Fenglan, who was chewing on a date paste pastry, looked at Shi Jiamu, who was also eating, and asked,””Mwah, why do you think Old Ancestor went to look for Little Bei Ran?” “How would I know anything about the ancestor?”
“Guess.”
“Probably to ask uncle about the plan of the Green Sky Meeting Meeting.”Shi Jiamu suddenly sighed.
Something terrible had happened this morning, and she had yet to recover from it.
Just as the uncle had said, everything had changed.
In the past, no matter if she went out to carry out missions or find a place to break through, there would always be brothers or little companions who would send her off.
However, this time, no one came to send her off. None of her brothers who had been so caring for her came.
Shi Jiamu knew that they were angry at her for not choosing them for the team, but she could not think of a way to get the best of both worlds.
This was the first time in her life that she had felt so isolated, and it made her feel very uncomfortable.
“Sigh…”
Shi Jiamu placed the date paste pastry back into the box and looked upstairs at the spot where Jiang Beiran had disappeared.
‘If I ask Uncle, I should be able to get an answer.’
In Shi Jiamu’s eyes, Jiang Beiran appeared kind on the surface, but he was actually a person who kept people at arm’s length. Other than treating his aunt a little differently, his attitude towards everyone else was pretty much the same.
Such a person should have long been used to loneliness.
Or rather, he did not feel lonely. He just preferred to be alone.
“Sigh! Little Bei Ran is out!” Shi Fenglan, who had been looking at the third floor, suddenly shouted. She waved her hands and shouted,”Little Bei Ran, Little Bei Ran, we’re here.”
“Hiss
Not too far away, a few veins popped out on Shi Yan’s forehead. He clenched his fists tightly to control himself from looking at Jiang Beiran.
Seeing this, Shi Hongfang quickly said,”Alright, alright, stop arguing with yourself here. Come with me to the second floor for a drink.”
However, Shi Hongfang did not move. He said in a deep voice,”l’ll stay here.”
“Sigh Shi Hongfang spread his hands and let him go.
When they reached the first floor, Shi Yangxi suddenly turned to Jiang Beiran and said,””Wei Yi has put a lot of pressure on you. If you can win the competition, you should thank him.”
Jiang Beiran was a little stunned when he heard the word ‘Weiyi’, but he quickly understood that Shi Yangxi was referring to the Sage.
“Junior understands.” Jiang BeiBeiran cupped his fists.
This time, he had chosen such a strange lineup and rejected so many direct descendants. If it wasn’t for Shi Weiyi’s support, he probably wouldn’t have been so satisfied.
‘Sigh…The last thing he wanted was to owe that old man a favor.’ “Do well.” Shi Yangxi left after she finished speaking.
As soon as Shi Yangxi left, Jiang Beiran could feel many eyes on him.
There were some who were curious and some who were dissatisfied.
The ones who were dissatisfied were probably those whose children did not join the team. The ones who were curious were naturally those who had only heard of his name but had never seen him before.
Under all sorts of gazes, Jiang Beiran calmly walked back to Shi Fenglan’s side.
“Little Bei Ran, why is the old ancestor looking for you?”Shi Fenglan asked Jiang Beiran curiously.
“It’s just a small matter.”
Shi Fenglan was about to speak again when she saw a middle-aged couple walking towards her.
“Sister Ruirui Shi Fenglan immediately greeted her happily.
“My good little sister Shi Ruijing responded happily and hugged Shi Fenglan, who was running over.
After hugging Shi Ruijing, Shi Fenglan turned to look at Shi Yingfa and said,””Hello, brother-in-law.”
“Long time no see.” Shi Yingfa smiled.
“Father, Mother.” At this moment, Shi Jiamu also walked over and shouted.
Seeing that her daughter did not seem very happy, Shi Ruijing reached out to touch her hair and comforted her silently.
This was because the couple had already foreseen this situation.
However, they did not intend to stop her because they also felt that it was time for their daughter to ” grow up.”
She should understand that this family was not as warm as she had imagined. In fact…lt was a little cruel.
Seeing that his wife was already comforting his daughter, Shi Yingfa strode over to Jiang Beiran and greeted,””Hello, I’m Shi Jiamu’s father. You’ve been taking care of my daughter during this period of time.”
Senior, you’re too kind.” Jiang Beiran cupped his fists.” I didn’t do anything.'”‘
Shi Ying shook his head and replied,” I can see that Jia ‘er has grown a lot recently. I believe that this is related to you. As a father, I should express my gratitude to you.””
“That’s because she’s smart. It has nothing to do with me.”
Seeing that Jiang Beiran intended to be humble to the end, Shi Yingfa did not continue the topic.
“I’ll leave Jia ‘er in your hands this time. I don’t want to win first place, I just want her to return safely. I believe that with your ability, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to do it.”
[Option 1:’1’11 try my best.’ [Completion Reward: Flying Scorpion Sword Axis
(Earth Grade Low-Rank)]
[Choice 2:” I’m not. I don’t have any. With my little ability, I can only protect myself at most.”[Completion Reward: Random basic attribute point +1]
[Mission completed. Reward: Strength +1]
After choosing option two, Jiang Bei took a step back and said,””l’m not. I don’t. With my little ability, I can only protect myself at most.”
Shi Yingfa was stunned. He felt that most people would answer ” try their best ‘ at this time. Why did he not even know how to be polite? This made him unable to continue the words he had prepared..
