Chapter 684: Want to Become Enemies With Katie Family?

Despite Devon’s simmering anger, he refrained from acting recklessly due to Gu Yang’s enigmatic presence.

Gu Yang harbored no fondness for the Katie siblings and had no inclination to befriend them. Employing the same ostentatious language she had witnessed the influential figures use, she flashed a smile. “I’m your father.”

Devon Katie’s features froze in disbelief. He hadn’t anticipated such audacious words from the seemingly demure girl.

For a fleeting moment, he wondered if he had misheard.

Hailing from a Western aristocratic lineage, conversing with Gu Yang in such a humble manner was already a challenge. He felt a surge of indignation at her brazen retort. “So, are you aiming to make enemies of my family?”

“Devon Katie, by attacking a Chinese citizen on our soil, is your family seeking to provoke enmity with our nation?”

Recognizing the voice, Gu Yang’s eyes brightened. She turned towards the doorway, spotting her future brother-in-law, Xiao Yize.

At the sight of Xiao Yize, Devon Katie was taken aback. “Ze, I didn’t expect to find you here.”

“Devon Katie, remember, this is my territory,” Xiao Yize asserted sternly.

Xiao Yize approached Gu Yang with a solemn expression. “Sister, you need not fear. Your sister is not present, but I will ensure your safety.”

Gu Yang blinked in gratitude. “Thank you, Teacher Xiao.”

Meanwhile, Devon and Ruan Meng lapsed into a brief silence, their attention fixed on the unconscious Tally.

Devon had a realization. “So this is your sister. Truly, a case of the carp leaping over the Dragon Gate…”

Xiao Yize interjected, his tone tinged with disdain. “If you can’t use Chinese properly, refrain from using it at all. Who said we’re family?”

Though unfamiliar with Xiao Yize, Ruan Meng, well-acquainted with members of the Gu family, corrected him earnestly, “My cousin is not related to him.”

Devon Katie breathed a silent sigh of relief upon hearing Ruan Meng’s clarification.

It was a relief that Gu Yang wasn’t affiliated with the Xiao family.

Having a potent hypnotist in China was one thing, but if they were associated with the influential Xiao family in the capital, it would be cause for concern.

Chinese hypnotists might not necessarily align with China’s interests; given the right incentives, they could be persuaded to align with other factions.

However, if this hypnotist hailed from the Xiao family, it would be highly improbable for them to align with forces outside of China, particularly those antagonistic to the nation.

The Xiao family in the capital had long been staunch defenders of the country, their patriotism ingrained deep within their heritage.

As if echoing Devon Katie’s unspoken thoughts, Xiao Yize sneered. “Don’t even entertain such thoughts. Even if my sister isn’t biologically related to me, she will become part of my family soon enough.”

Gu Yang grasped the implication immediately.

Her prospective brother-in-law exuded unwavering confidence.

But would he dare to assert this boldly in front of his sister?

Speaking of which, my sister hasn’t joined Xiao Yize’s family yet, has she?

“And my sister loves our motherland just as fervently as I do, doesn’t she?” Xiao Yize inquired, his gaze fixed on Gu Yang with anticipation.

Gu Yang nodded solemnly, unwavering in her response. “Absolutely.”

Whether in the world she inhabited before her transmigration or in this fictional realm, Gu Yang believed that patriotism required no hesitation.

For Gu Yang, the foundation of her carefree lifestyle and pursuit of her passions relied upon living in a peaceful and stable nation.

She relished the comforts and opportunities afforded by her homeland. Failing to love and appreciate it would be akin to the age-old saying of “eating one’s fill but cursing the cook.”

Xiao Yize cast a smug glance at Devon Katie. “See that? My sister’s patriotism is unwavering.”

Devon Katie was left speechless.

By the way, are you truly not blood-related siblings?
