The cannon fodder in the book turns into the daughter of the heaven

Chapter 172 The Old Man's Memories 2

"Ah...poor child!"

He was in a trance and a sigh fell into his ears.

"From now on, you will follow me!"

This was the most beautiful sound he had ever heard in his life, like the sound of nature, deeply engraved in his soul.

He struggled to open his eyes, trying to see the person in front of him clearly.

A slender hand as white as jade gently brushed past him, and his body instantly felt like it was bathed in warm sunshine.

At that moment, he also saw clearly the appearance of the person in front of him.

The lack of words in his mind could not describe the unparalleled beauty of the woman before him.

From then on, he followed the girl and grew from an ordinary child to a powerful man.

However, the only woman in his world was the one who gave him warmth on those freezing winter days.

Finally one day, she left his world. Before she left, she left behind those questions.

She said that if someone could answer those questions in the future, they would be able to find her.

Xiao Wanwan blinked her big eyes and listened carefully to the old man's narration.

As the old man spoke, the figure of that peerless beauty seemed to appear before her eyes.

"Grandpa, have you waited for thousands of years just to see her again?"

"Yes, as long as I can see her again, I will have no regrets in my life!"

The old man slowly withdrew his gaze and gently fell on Xiao Wanwan.

He didn't know why he wanted to tell a little kid about his past.

Maybe it’s because this little kid is the only one who has any connection with her.

Xiao Wanwan was instantly moved to tears by the old man. She had seen too many exaggerated and false emotions in the real world.

This kind of sincere emotion of devoting one's whole life to one person is really touching.

"Grandpa, what should I call you?"

Xiao Wanwan wiped her tears with her sleeve, raised her head and looked at the old man and asked.

She can't keep calling him Grandpa, Grandpa.

"I……"

The old man looked stunned for a moment. He had been waiting for so long that he seemed to have forgotten even his own name.

"My last name is Wei, so you can call me Old Wei, little one!"

"Okay, then I'll call you Grandpa Wei from now on!"

Xiao Wanwan looked at Mr. Wei's outfit and couldn't help but shook her head.

"Grandpa Wei, I'll ask my dad to buy you a set of clothes tomorrow."

"No problem, the old man is used to it!"

Mr. Wei waved his hand indifferently.

But he doesn't mind some material possessions.

"Grandpa Wei! Look, what if... I mean, what if one day, you suddenly meet the person you want to see."

Xiao Wanwan stretched out her chubby little hands and gestured at herself a few times before continuing.

"Shouldn't I dress up a little prettier?"

"Yes!"

There was a moment of trance in Mr. Wei's expression again, and he muttered.

"She loves cleanliness and beauty the most. I'll go change it right away!"

Xiao Wanwan only felt a flash before her eyes, and then Old Wei's figure disappeared from her sight.

"Master Wei...Master..."

Before Xiao Wanwan could even say anything, there was no trace of Old Wei in front of her, as if no one had ever appeared.

"Tsk tsk tsk... Grandpa Wei is really fast. I wish I could be as good as him one day."

Xiao Wanwan was secretly shocked, with longing in her eyes.

"Wanwan, what are you doing standing there in a daze?"

Xiao Shengsheng's clear and pleasant voice interrupted Xiao Wanwan's fantasy.

As soon as she walked into Liusheng Courtyard, she saw Wanwan standing there alone, looking into the distance and grinning foolishly, as if she was possessed by a ghost.

"Ah... no... I'm not stunned!"

Xiao Wanwan looked at Xiao Shengsheng who had just returned from outside and couldn't help but ask.

"Shengsheng, where have you been?"

"Hahaha……"

When Xiao Shengsheng heard Xiao Wanwan's question, he seemed to be tickled red. He held his stomach with both hands and laughed so hard that tears almost came out.

After laughing twice, Xiao Shengsheng seemed to suddenly remember something and quickly covered her mouth with her hands to stop laughing. Her face turned red from trying to hold back her laughter.

"Wanwan, something happened outside, so I went to see what was happening!"

"What are you looking at?"

When Xiao Wanwan heard this, her eyes lit up and she looked very interested.

Then she pouted and turned her head away angrily.

"Okay, if there's something exciting to watch, you might as well call me."

"Do you want to see the excitement of Uncle?"

Xiao Shengsheng's eyes rolled around and she asked tentatively.

"Look, of course I have to look!"

Xiao Wanwan nodded repeatedly, took Xiao Shengsheng's hand and rushed out the door without hesitation.

The two sisters came to a luxuriously decorated courtyard, and Xiao Wanwan couldn't help but marvel at the sight.

Whether in Qingyun Sect or in the Xiao family, all the courtyard residences are simple, elegant and quiet.

Something as magnificent as the one before me has only been seen in the Treasure Pavilion.

As soon as the two stepped into the courtyard, they heard Xiao Batian's angry scolding.

"Useless thing! The eldest young master of the Xiao family was beaten into such a state. He didn't even see the person who did it. And you still have the nerve to cry in front of me. You have made me lose face."

Beaten up like this? Xiao Wanwan couldn't help but feel curious and walked in quickly.

Xiao Yanhe was sitting in a chair in front of him, his nose and face were bruised, and his whole face was swollen like a pig's head.

It is even better than Xiao Ningbo's miserable appearance.

Ye Chuxue sat aside and shed tears. Hearing Xiao Batian's ruthless words, she couldn't help but defend herself.

"Father, Brother Yan was beaten like this. It would be fine if you didn't avenge him, but why did you have to scold him?"

"Revenge? Revenge for what?"

Xiao Batian was almost laughed out of anger by the two of them.

"You don't even know who beat you up, so who am I going to seek revenge on? Besides, it's just a minor injury that will heal in two days. You're panicking like the sky is falling. Don't come to me for such trivial matters in the future."

Xiao Yanhe covered the lump at the corner of his mouth and spoke vaguely.

"Father... I... I am... your son, and you just... don't care about anything? Can't you... send someone to investigate?"

Xiao Yanhe gritted his teeth in hatred. As the head of the family, his father could do it just by asking.

He lowered his eyes to hide the resentment in them. He knew that his father had always disliked him, and in the future he would definitely make those who looked down on him look at him in a new light.

When Xiao Batian saw Xiao Wanwan coming over, the anger on his face instantly turned into kindness.

"Hey, why is Wanwan here?"

He quickly stood up and walked forward to hold Xiao Wanwan in his arms.

"Let's go back and not let these dirty things dirty our eyes"

Xiao Batian ignored the murderous gazes of Xiao Yanhe and his wife, and quickly walked out of the courtyard with Xiao Wanwan in his arms.

What if Wanwan is soft-hearted and feels sad seeing her biological father being beaten like this?

Xiao Junhe and his wife followed behind Xiao Batian and couldn't help but ask.

"Father, my brother is in such a state, could it be that the Great Elder did this?"

Wanwan just beat Xiao Ningbo into that state. Maybe the Great Elder was holding a grudge and wanted to take revenge.
