Chapter 27: Little Hedgehog
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Don’t you know what kind of trick your father plays? Don’t you know your brothers well enough? The matter has come to an end, but as for your end…” Yan Beixiao looked at him with a tinge of anger.
He knew him so well.
Lei Xiao did not bother to talk nonsense with him.
“By the way, I have something to tell you.”
Yan Beixiao looked stern and seemed to recall something.
“The Lin family has gathered a group of people and set out here.”
He only received the news in the morning. As Lei Xiao was there, Yan Beixiao paid attention to any news about Mengsong.
Lei Xiao did not speak—his eyes were as deep as ink.
“You said, their target—”
“It’s not me.” Before Yan Beixiao finished speaking, Lei Xiao had already given an affirmative answer.
It was Lin Hanxing!
Up until then, Lei Xiao had begun to piece together a series of scattered clues.
“We’ll bring as many people as them.”
......
After a long time, Lei Xiao finally spoke.
On the contrary, Yan Beixiao was a little confused. He had just said that he was not the Lin family’s target, so why bother allocating manpower?
The storm had yet to come...
…
When Lei Xiao returned to the yard, Lin Hanxing was sitting under large clusters of turban flowers basking in the sun.
The turban flowers also had an alias called Bougainvillea.
It was randomly planted in the corner of the wall in the south and could cover the entire wall within a few years.
The clusters looked so beautiful when the flowers bloomed.
This tree in Lin Hanxing’s yard had been carefully taken care of for years by the former owner and would fill the wall every season.
The peregrine falcon stood on the stone table, preening its feather. It tweeted in dissatisfaction as it saw Lei Xiao approaching Lin Hanxing.
However, it stopped when Lei Xiao glanced over.
“Stop scaring it! Be careful, it will blind you once it starts hating you.”
Although Lin Hanxing did not open her eyes, she knew everything about the small interactions between the man and falcon.
Lei Xiao walked to her and sat down beside her.
It was a sunny day, and Lin Hanxing’s porcelain-white skin looked transparent under the sun.
“You said last night that you hate Jiang City the most. Why is that so?”
Lei Xiao stretched out his hand and removed the turban flowers that had fallen onto her hair after the breeze.
Lin Hanxing slowly opened her eyes.
If those eyes were clear in the past, then at that time, there was endless darkness in her eyes.
The two looked at each other, but it was more like a game.
“I heard that the famous Lei family in the Jiang city had recently gotten into huge trouble…”
After a long time, Lin Hanxing finally said something.
“Young Master Lei is in danger and his whereabouts are so far unknown.”
There was a faint sneer in her eyes so clear that she did not even bother to hide it.
‘Is his life or death unknown?’
‘Is his whereabouts unknown?’
He was merely putting up a show.
However, no one knew who he put on this show for.
Lei Xiao did not feel angry at all when he heard what she said.
He was willing to let her find out the parts that she could.
However, this news would never reach Lin Hanxing’s ears without his approval.
“Do you know what you look like now?”
Lei Xiao stretched out his hand and pinched her nose. The playful atmosphere disappeared with this action.
Lin Hanxing was starting to become upset as she avoided his hand.
“Like what?”
Her light lip color seemed similar to the color of pink gelatine powder.
She looked extremely attractive in Lei Xiao’s eyes.
“Just like a highly defensive little hedgehog.”
If it was not for her defensiveness, why would she be tit-for-tat as he started the topic?
“You...” Before Lin Hanxing finished speaking, the peregrine falcon dived down from mid-air toward the door…
There was a sneaky figure over there...
