Chapter 2208: Locked In

Thinking about the people at home, Elder Xiao’s eyes darkened. He said to everyone, “Please follow me back to the Xiao family home. In-laws, please.”

Elder Xiao did not want to be too enthusiastic with Wu Jingzhong, so he could only shift his enthusiasm to Wu Maosong.

“Please!” Wu Maosong never thought he would one day be in-laws with a top-tier noble family like the Xiao family. He was very happy.

Previously, Master Qingyun said that Nangong Nuannuan and Chi Yang were the lucky stars that saved the Wu family from disaster. Now that he thought about it, that really was the case.

If not for Nangong Nuannuan and Chi Yang, how could the Wu family have become in-laws with a family like the Xiao family?

Even though the Wu family might have been just as rich as the Xiao family, their power was lacking in comparison, especially when faced with the Shi family, who did not play by the rules and used ugly tactics. They were both shameless and powerful. No matter how powerful the Wu family was, they would definitely be destroyed.

However, now that the Wu family was related to the Xiao family, if the Shi family wanted to touch the Wu family again, they would have to think twice.

Old Master Wu, who had been thinking about how to prevent the Shi family from taking revenge, now put his heart at ease.

Xiao Chengan and Old Madam Li, Li Defen, were extremely scared right now.

Ever since Xiao Chengan tried to strangle his mother to death in the afternoon, but was interrupted by Elder Xiao’s guards, no matter how much Xiao Chengan begged Elder Xiao, Elder Xiao did not say another word to him. Elder Xiao’s guards simply brutally pressed him against the ground and took a blood sample.

Looking at his father’s hateful gaze, Xiao Chengan was pissed off.

He struggled, cried, and begged, but it was useless. He could not stop the guards from taking his blood.

After doing this, all of Xiao Chengan and Old Madam Li’s phones were confiscated. Then, they were taken to the Xiao family’s secret room. The entire time, the two of them screamed like pigs being slaughtered.

A long time passed.

There was no light, no sound, and no one else in the secret room.

Xiao Chengan did not dare to scold Old Madam Li anymore. Old Madam Li wanted to say something, but Xiao Chengan stopped her.

The two of them waited in the basement for a long, long time. It was so long that they felt like the whole day had already passed. They were famished. Finally, they heard the sound of footsteps above them.

Xiao Chengan’s eyes were filled with desire.

He had already thought everything through after being imprisoned for a few hours. It was obviously impossible for him to deny that he was Li Defen’s son. However, he had been swapped out by his mother when he was just a baby. He had been a member of the Xiao family for as long as he had been conscious and from even before he spoke his first sentence. It was said that nurture was more important than nurture. He had been Elder Xiao’s son for forty-three years, and Xiao Lao had been his father for forty-three years. Forty-three years of emotional devotion was not something that could be let go of just like that.

Moreover, he was not the one who swapped himself out back then. He had not known anything. As long as he play his role well in front of his father and act pitiful, his father would definitely let him off on account of forty-three years of nurture.

At this moment, Xiao Chengan was extremely glad that Xiao Yuqi and his wife had gone to Sea District today. With these two shocks, Guo Langming would definitely not be able to take Wu Jingzhong away, and he would not be able to carry out his backup plan.

Now, it seemed to actually be a good thing that he could not do it.

As he was thinking, the door of the secret room was suddenly opened. Light shone in from the outside, making it difficult for him and Li Defen to open their eyes.

They forced their eyes open one by one and looked outside with all their strength.
