Chapter 2219 No Answer

"You are right, why should I doubt it?"

The old man grinned.

"Besides, we don't even know each other. Are you going out of your way to trick an old man like me?"

"but……"

"If you had told me this a few years ago, I wouldn't have accepted it so easily."

The old man shook his head.

"It's a monster after all..."

He was being polite by not treating the other person as a lunatic.

So, in his opinion, "No one would use monsters to fool people, right?"

Isn't that obviously a lie?
Most people nowadays believe in science.

“But it’s different now.”

The old man smiled and said, "I don't have much time left."

"In the face of impending death, no matter how incredible something is, it seems that it is not so unacceptable."

The old man's brows relaxed, and it seemed that he was not talking about his own death which was coming in the near future.

……

"Young man, you just said..."

The old man suddenly thought of something, and a childlike curiosity and excitement appeared on his face. "The monster is here...is it?"

……

Xiao Xiao nodded.

"This time coming here is its request."

At that time, he asked the little monster if he was still willing to stay with Boss Bai. The little monster stared at the jade ball for a long time.

Xiao Xiao thought that the little monster misunderstood that staying with Boss Bai meant staying in the jade ball.

He was about to explain.

The little monster flew in front of him...

"It wants to meet your brother."

……

"Meet my brother?"

The old man was stunned, "But my brother..."

The hesitant voice stopped abruptly.

An idea suddenly occurred to the old man.

"I understand."

The old man smiled with some emotion, "It's time for me to go see my brother."

……

"Excuse me, old man."

Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved.

"What's the trouble?"

The old man waved his hand and said, "I was thinking of going there soon."

The old man looked at his watch.

"It's getting late now."

"Tomorrow."

"We can go there tomorrow, okay?"

……

"Ok."

Xiao Xiao nodded, "You can arrange it."

The old man looked at his hands covered with age spots and smiled bitterly, "I would like to go now."

“But it’s a long way from here.”

"If we go there now, we may not be able to get in."

If he hadn't considered this, the old man really couldn't suppress his anxiety.

Just forget it yourself.

We can’t let the children make a wasted trip.

……

The old man shook his head. “Young man, come over tomorrow morning.”

"I'll take you there."

"it is good."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

……

"As early as possible."

The old man couldn't help but give a warning.

He knows that young people nowadays like to sleep in.

"what."

The old man patted his head gently and said, "My brain."

"Young man, are you still studying now?"

Hearing the music and understanding the elegant meaning.

Xiao Xiao's mouth corners slightly raised, "Old man, don't worry, I don't have classes tomorrow morning."

"Oh, that's good."

The old man smiled with relief.

"Then we will gather here tomorrow morning..."

The old man confirmed it with Xiao Xiao again and again.

Xiao Xiao took the trouble to assure the old man that he would come early.

……

"Young man, please don't be offended."

The old man smiled sheepishly and said, "When you get older, you tend to be a bit long-winded sometimes."

"By the way, this old man doesn't even know your name." "It's not right for an old man to keep calling you young man, young man, right?"

……

After Xiao Xiao introduced himself, the old man quickly changed his tone, "Little friend Xiao Xiao."

"I'll give it to you."

Seeing the old man's firm attitude, Xiao Xiao did not refuse his kindness.

……

Hearing the noise coming from the stairs, Boss Bai stood up suddenly.

He walked quickly to the stairs.

After waiting for a while, I saw my grandfather and Master Xiao coming down.

It can be seen that in order to match the old man's speed, Master Xiao deliberately slowed down his pace and walked very slowly.

……

"grandfather."

Boss Bai reached out and helped the old man down.

The old man complained a little, "What are you doing? I have no problem walking up the stairs."

Boss Bai nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, you have a strong and healthy body, so walking up the stairs is no problem for you."

"It's just that I rarely come here, and in front of Master Xiao, can you give me some opportunities to show my abilities?"

The old man smiled, "You."

"You can talk a lot more than your dad."

……

Boss Bai helped the old man sit down on the sofa in the living room.

Xiao Xiao said goodbye.

"Ah, Master Xiao, I'll take you there."

Boss Bai said hurriedly.

He was the one who brought Master Xiao here in the first place, so naturally he should be responsible for sending him back.

He said a few words to Aunt Fang who came over later.
He smiled at the old man again and said, "Grandpa, I'll come over again in the evening."

He was really curious about what Master Xiao talked about with Grandpa.

But the first priority now is to send Master Xiao back.

Naturally, he would not be confused about the order of priority.

……

Boss Bai walked over to Master Xiao who was waiting at the door.

"Master Xiao, let's go."

"It doesn't matter if you don't send me off. I-"

"How is that possible?"

Boss Bai interrupted Master Xiao and looked disapproving.

"Master Xiao, I'll take you back."

“It’s not convenient to take a taxi here.”

After all, people here have cars to go in and out, so why would they need to take a taxi?
……

"Then I'll trouble you, Boss Bai."

Xiao Xiao thanked him with a smile.

"Master Xiao, you're too polite."

Boss Bai narrowed his eyes.

……

"Master Xiao."

After a brief silence, Boss Bai's voice rang out in the car.

"What did you tell my grandfather?"

The old man's previous appearance appeared in Boss Bai's mind, "Grandpa seems to be in a good mood."

There was a smile in his eyes.

……

"You can go back and ask the old man."

Xiao Xiao smiled.

Ok.

Boss Bai was not very surprised by this answer.

Otherwise, why did you let him leave at that time?

I just don’t know the answer to this question…if he can get it from his grandfather.

……

Speaking of which -
and many more.

Boss Bai suddenly remembered that he had forgotten something.

That time at my grandfather's house was not the first time that Master Xiao asked him to leave.

In the teahouse before...

Master Xiao also said that he wanted to be alone for a while.

He still remembered the anxious feeling he had when he was sitting on pins and needles in the teahouse next door.

At that time, Master Xiao said that he would give me an explanation later.

But from then on, the pace of their conversation was always controlled by Master Xiao.

They went to his father's house and grandfather's house one after another, and there was no time to have a good conversation.

This explanation...

He never got it.

"Master Xiao."

Boss Bai looked up at the rearview mirror and demanded the answer he deserved.

"Why did you stay alone in the teahouse earlier?"

"You said you would explain it to me."

In the teahouse, Master Xiao doesn't have anyone to talk to like Grandpa Bai.
