Chapter 48 Unexpectedly
Yun Xiaobao was unable to continue… But at this time, both Master and I became very serious. I don’t know what Master was thinking, but at this time, I had an inexplicable bad feeling in my heart.
We waited for Yun Xiaobao to continue, but he was a little agitated and temporarily calmed down.
This would not have been a problem, but at this moment, the sound of a car screeching on the ground and the noise of the servants could be heard in the courtyard.
My bad feeling almost reached its peak at this moment, but as a guest, I didn’t want to go to the edge of the terrace to check anything… But Yun Xiaobao didn’t have this concern, and he went straight to the edge of the terrace. He only glanced at it, and suddenly turned around and excitedly said to my master, “Master Jiang, Chengyi, fate. This Baogen hasn’t been home for a year and a half, and today he’s back.”
Yun Xiaobao’s son is back? My master and I looked at each other. Could it be that my bad feeling was because Yun Xiaobao’s son had returned? I had this thought, but I didn’t want to say anything to my master… After all, spiritual awareness is something I have, and my master may not be able to sense anything, but we are in Yun Xiaobao’s house, so how can we say anything about his son…?
I instinctively felt that it would be better to leave, but I also felt that it might not be a big deal to wait and see what happens. After all, this bad feeling did not turn into a dangerous feeling, so I was very decisive and silent. My master was also like this, and I was afraid that he was also taking a wait-and-see attitude.
It’s not that my master and I are sensitive, but in this special period of time, do we not have enough enemies? There are four top forces on the surface, and from what Yun Xiaobao just told us, my master and I judge that Yun Baogen may have really gone astray… I think of it.
Yun Xiaobao naturally doesn’t know about these thoughts of mine and Master’s. As the shrill sound of the car stopped… Yun Xiaobao couldn’t help but shout down to the ground floor from the balcony: “Baogen, you’re back? Have you eaten? I’ll go ask the chef to cook for you. Do you want to take a bath first? Or…”
He couldn’t help but say this downstairs, which shows that Yun Xiaobao loves his son much more than the average person. I was worried in my heart, not knowing why. I was afraid that if he got excited, he would say, “Two guests are coming to the house today.”
But at this moment, Yun Xiaobao’s words were interrupted by an impatient voice from downstairs: “Let’s talk inside!”
These four words interrupted Yun Xiaobao’s expression of his father’s longing for his son, but Yun Xiaobao was still very excited, repeatedly calling out, “Good, good…”
However, none of this is what we care about. My master and I both looked extremely displeased at this moment… especially when he stood up in excitement!
We had heard that voice before. It was the squad leader! Yes, it was the squad leader who had trapped us in the tree that day, the one who was so calculating and made people feel that he was extremely difficult to deal with… I had thought about it a thousand times, but I never thought that life could be so strange.
Fate, what can I say to fate? Is it really like what Master said? Because I was born to bear these things, the people and things I encounter will be destined to be like this… Just like a person who is born to be a musician, the many people he encounters will have a connection with his musical path.
But Yun Baogen… I felt inexplicably sad. The fact that he was wearing a mask already indicated one thing… Thinking about Yun Xiaobao’s deep love for this only child, I suddenly found myself at a loss for words. Should I tell Yun Xiaobao that his son might have become something like a vampire?
Or, should I say that the retribution for your family’s ancestors’ tomb-robbing has finally come? That the cycle of heaven is complete, and retribution is not unfair?
I didn’t even think about the situation of my master and I, but instead, I felt a bitter taste in my mouth… I found that my master’s reaction was even greater than mine, and he even had a slight tremor in his hand. I believe that my master’s feelings for the Yun family are even stronger than mine, and he is in a position as a master, so I am afraid that he can better understand the feelings of a father, so his reaction is even more intense than mine.
But Yun Baogen was already at home, and we were destined not to let Yun Xiaobao know the truth at this time. There were still many factors of unrest that had to be dealt with… I forced myself to calm down, then crouched down and rushed over, pulling Yun Xiaobao over.
Yun Xiaobao was suddenly pulled down by me, squatting in front of me with a face full of confusion, but I didn’t care about that. I whispered, “Has your son entered the house?”
“Well, he’s almost in the house… This kid, he’s getting more and more impatient behind the wheel. How can he be like this…?” Yun Xiaobao always couldn’t stop talking about his son.
“Will he come to see you?” I was actually starting to get anxious. This house is huge, so huge that it doesn’t belong in a villa anymore. It should be called a private mountain villa? Manor? However, if Yun Baogen doesn’t take the elevator in the house, but walks to the terrace near the roof, it will only take him ten minutes at most… I was pulling Yun Xiaobao towards my master’s side while saying anxiously.
“I don’t think so. In his heart, I’m afraid I’m not as important as his father. When he comes back, he’ll go to his room to wash up first… What’s wrong?” Yun Xiaobao finally realized that something was wrong.
“Do you believe me?” This time it wasn’t me who spoke, but my master. He looked at Yun Xiaobao seriously and said these words.
“Believe.” Yun Xiaobao nodded heavily. The favor of the ancestors, the friendship of selling jade, and the fact that I was young at the time and had even fought for them once, he believed in us, and he believed in my master even more deeply.
“Your son’s situation is very serious… I don’t know how to tell you now. And I’ll tell you clearly that your son has indeed joined the evil faction, and not only that…” The master continued to say this sentence seriously, and then he stopped talking.
I’m afraid that’s all I can say to Yun Xiaobao.
Yun Xiaobao may have had a heart condition, and when he heard my master say this, he suddenly covered his chest and sat down on a stool… I quickly helped him calm down. Although I am not a medical student, I can do these things.
As I helped him calm down, Yun Xiaobao’s condition improved a little, but we didn’t have time to let Yun Xiaobao digest the fact. My master said anxiously and quietly to Yun Xiaobao, “Your son and I can’t meet. To put it simply, good and evil cannot coexist. Your son and I happen to be opposed to each other. I think he knows me. We have already met unintentionally… We must leave immediately because we have an important task and cannot delay it for your son. But if you believe me, listen to me. Your son is in this situation because of the spirit jade. I, Jiang Lichun, will do my best to save your son.
Master said these words extremely seriously. I knew that since Master had said that he would do his best, he would not only do nine-tenths of his best… But I was still nervous. Yun Xiaobao was so fond of Yun Baogen, and Master’s words were unintentionally asking him to choose: to choose to believe in us, or his son?
Time seemed to have stopped. I didn’t know how long it had been, maybe a minute?
Yun Xiaobao suddenly spoke up, saying, “Then I will believe in Master Jiang’s words and will definitely save my son Baogen… What should I do next?”
Master was about to speak when one of the servants hurried up and said, “Master Yun, the young master is coming straight to you. I was just asking if you wanted to order some more food.”
My face and Master’s face changed… I thought a lot, could it be that Yun Baogen suddenly returned home after receiving the news? Yun Xiaobao said to the servant, “No need for now, you quickly tell the young master to go to the study first and wait for me, saying that I have something important to tell him.”
Yun Xiaobao ordered in a hurry, and the servant hurriedly ran out… Master Yun Xiaobao said to Yun Xiaobao, “You don’t necessarily have to say one word, and Baogen will be obedient. You go and hold him back yourself. I and Chengyi will go first. Car?”
Everything was in a hurry. Yun Xiaobao nodded and said, “The car is parked downstairs. After you go downstairs… find the bodyguard at the door and he will naturally take you… When you get to the fourth floor, hide in a room first, and then come out ten minutes later.”
Yun Xiaobao couldn’t go into too much detail, but this was already thorough enough. The biggest advantage of this house is that it has many rooms… and it also provides some buffer for me and my master.
After saying that, Yun Xiaobao looked at us, nodded to us, and hurriedly went downstairs first. He wanted to stop Yun Baogen first. In any case, his words as a father still had some effect. My master and I waited for a minute, then hurriedly went downstairs… and then hid in a room we found.
Since Yun Xiaobao was on the fourth floor, there was no chance of meeting Yun Baogen… After my master and I entered the room, I leaned against the door and let out a sigh. I just hoped that it wasn’t the worst case scenario, and that Yun Baogen had returned because of some news.
