Chapter 1418 Call
The girl muttered.

The companion did not interrupt.

Although she thought that the snake just now was very beautiful, a small one was also quite cute.

It was different from any snake she had ever imagined.

Are there such exquisite snakes?
It must be expensive.

The companion thought silently.

Xiao Xiao put his hand on the little white fox's head, interrupting the words that the little white fox was about to say.

The little white fox glanced at Xiao Xiao with some resentment.

The ears twitched.

Hum, if you don’t say it, don’t say it.

The little white fox turned its head and its tail seemed to accidentally hit Xiao Xiao's arm.

"hiss~"

The white snake stretched its body, and a hint of smile flowed in its bright red vertical pupils, "Master Xiao Xiao, thank you."

It knew that Lord Xiao Xiao had interrupted the human girl on purpose.

And now the same goes for stopping the little white fox from speaking.

“I’m not that fragile~”

It doesn't care what these weak humans think of it.

After all, the gap in strength is too great.

It makes it feel that it is really stupid to take it seriously with them.

However, although it didn't care, it was still somewhat happy that Lord Xiao Xiao did this.

Humph, it turns out that Lord Xiao Xiao likes it more than the stinky fox.

Although this is a matter of course.

The white snake swung its tail with a look of reserved pride.

Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "Yeah."

"I know."

Although he knew it, he still didn't like others talking about White Snake in this way.

He understood that girls didn't like snakes, but it was a bit too much to say it to their faces.

Although people don’t know that this snake is special and is a monster that can understand human language.

The next day, Xiao Xiao received a call from Grandpa Zhou to his surprise.

He thought that yesterday's meeting seemed somewhat unpleasant to the other party.

"Xiaoxiao, you finally answered the phone."

There was a hint of displeasure and impatience in the old man's voice, "It's too difficult to make this call."

"Sorry, I don't usually answer unknown phone calls."

Xiao Xiao explained in a gentle manner.

He would only answer the call if the other party called him one after another like Grandpa Zhou did just now.

At least considering his persistence, he accepted it even if it was just a sales pitch.

"Grandpa Zhou, what's the matter?"

The silence on the phone made Xiao Xiao raise his eyebrows slightly. He probably guessed what the old man was going to say.

In order not to waste both parties' time, he asked considerately.

"Xiaoxiao."

There was a faint sigh in Mr. Zhou's voice, "Can't you really help Grandpa Zhou?"

"Grandpa Zhou."

Xiao Xiao looked out the window at the large expanse of clear sky. The sky was blue and clear, and the sparse white clouds were like wisps of smoke, almost blending into the bright and brilliant skylight.

The sun shines warmly on my body.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, "There's nothing I can do."

"So how did you help the old wooden son?"

Mr. Zhou has always been bothered by this.

He just couldn't accept why Xiaoxiao helped Lao Mu's son but was unwilling to help his own son?

"I have a friend whose father is a police officer."

Xiao Xiao said simply.

Mr. Zhou almost understood it.

Lao Mu's son was set up, and no matter how perfect the other party thought he was, it could not withstand the special inspection of the police.

There is no need to take this risk.

Just like Xiao Xiao said yesterday, Lao Mu's son was just a target of the other party.

If we give up this goal, the other party will have many other goals.

There was no need to draw the attention of law enforcement to such a minor target.

Not worth the candle.

but
His son's situation was different.

The source of the matter lies with his son.

Call the police?
He rejected Xiao Xiao's proposal yesterday. If he really called the police, his son would not get any benefit.

There is also a criminal record with the police.

Rather than this, it would be better to let my son be beaten.

You will understand the situation after you have the fight.

Now it seems he has no choice.

Thinking of his son pulling at his clothes and saying that he didn't want to have his legs broken, Mr. Zhou couldn't help but sigh deeply.

What else could he do?

He was helpless.

"I see."

After saying this, Mr. Zhou hung up the phone.

Xiao Xiao put away his phone and didn't mind the old man's rudeness.

He knew that today would be a difficult day for the old man and the Zhou family.

"Buzz buzz~"

The phone on the table lit up.

The sudden vibration sound attracted everyone's attention.

"Third brother, you've received a lot of phone calls these past two days."

Zhang Bo joked and turned his gaze back to the computer desktop.

"The third brother is a very busy man."

Zhuge Yun's hands kept moving, making the sound of typing on the keyboard.

"Unlike you, you haven't called for ten days or half a month."

"Second brother, you don't call often."

Zhao Luzheng made a straightforward speech.

"Hey, there are so many communication tools now. If you have anything, just send a message. Who still-"

Zhuge Yun blurted out, but his tone became softer and softer, "Okay."

He shrugged. "Just pretend I didn't say anything before."

Zhang Bo gave Zhao Luzheng an admiring look.

Zhao Luzheng waved his hand modestly.

Xiao Xiao walked onto the balcony.

He answered the phone, "Grandpa."

"Xiaoxiao, Xiao Zhou's leg was really broken and he was sent to the hospital."

Grandpa Xiao's powerful voice came from the phone.

Because of some intense emotions, Grandpa Xiao's voice became a little higher and higher.

"Hey, old man, why are you speaking so loudly?"

When Xiao Xiao heard his grandmother's complaints, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"I'm talking to my grandson on the phone."

"Don't interrupt."

Grandpa Xiao obviously moved the phone away, and his voice became a little unclear.

"Xiaoxiao."

The sound became clear again and Xiao Xiao understood that the brief exchange between the two old men had ended.

"It surprised me that."

Grandpa Xiao's voice revealed some emotion.

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, "Didn't the other party tell Zhou Mingbao this from the beginning?"

"If you don't pay me three times the money, I'll break Zhou Mingbao's legs."

"Yes."

Grandpa Xiao smiled bitterly, "I know that too."

"But I thought that the other party also meant to scare Xiao Zhou by saying this."

"The purpose is to make Xiao Zhou pay twice as much."

In the eyes of most people, money is naturally more practical than beating someone up.

Beating people is a means, paying money is the goal.

did not expect.
".Even if he really hit me, most people wouldn't be able to do such a heavy hand, right?"

"A person's legs can be broken at any time."

Grandpa Xiao shook his head and said, "Xiao Zhou really offended a very powerful person this time."

“I didn’t see what was going on at the time.”

"But according to others, this morning, there was chaos at Old Zhou's house."

“I could hear a lot of noise.”

"No one dared to go near Lao Zhou's house, for fear of being implicated."
