Chapter 217 The Head Of The Family Kneels
Xu San Zhien quickly walked to the third living room on the first floor within just three minutes.
His face was pale, though one could still see some colour.
Even though he tried to suppress his emotions all the way here, they were still there.
At the moment, Xu San Zhien stood in front of the third living room where Bai Chen and the others were.
The sound of a deeply inhaled breath was heard. His trembling hand reached out to open the door in front of him.
The door was opened. All eyes in the room quickly turned towards it.
“Father?”
Xu Sin Xiao was amazed that it was Xu San Zhien who had come in. He had not expected his father to come here.
Xu Jing Xie and Xu Xue Ning also felt the same.
Bai Chen was the only one who did not feel a thing because he did not know who Xu San Zhien was. He did not know that he was the current head of the Xu family, Xu Xue Ning’s grandfather, and Xu Sin Xiao’s father.
Xu San Zhien’s face was pale and covered in sweat. He did not pay attention to his son. Instead, he swept his eyes around the room until they stopped at one person. Of course, it was Bai Chen.
The moment Bai Chen was seen clearly by him, he halted. His breathing seemed to cease.
Even though Bai Chen was not that good-looking, he was so coolly composed, it was scary.
His cool calm would not have been able to affect him if he had not known from his father that Bai Chen was a legendary realm cultivator.
“What are you doing here, father?” Xu Sin Xiao got up from his seat and asked politely.
“Father… Are you perhaps here because of Xue Ning’s boyfriend?”
Xu Jing Xie also asked this politely and got up from her seat. She looked at Bai Chen.
That was the only reason that she could think of.
Actually, Xu San Zhien was the one who had ordered her to call Xu Xue Ning back home for another matchmaking date. He was also the one who had chosen the man for her.
The one he had chosen was truly special. He was the Wang family’s future head… Wang Cheng Yong!
Wang Cheng Yong was the eldest son of the current head of the Wang family. He was Wang Chengye’s older brother.
Wang Chengye…the one Bai Chen wanted to kill in order to get his revenge!
“Erm…” Xu San Zhien did not pay one bit of attention to Xu Sin Xiao or Xu Jing Xie. He opened his mouth. He did not know what to say to Bai Chen.
“Grandfather.” Xu Xue Ning also got up from her seat. It was a common courtesy to get up to greet older people, especially for older members of the family.
Seeing everyone get up from their seats, Bai Chen thought that it would not look good if he did not do it, too.
Hearing all of them, he now knew who this old man with grey hair was.
He was about to stand up when he heard an agitated voice.
“No…No, please don’t do that!” It was Xu San Zhien.
His eyes almost popped out of their sockets seeing that Bai Chen was about to get up.
Bai Chen frowned a little at hearing that. He did not understand why Xu Xue Ning’s grandfather would say that.
He knew that that agitated voice of the other party was talking to him because the eyes of the other person were staring at him.
“......”
“......”
“......”
Xu Sin Xiao, Xu Jing Xie, and Xu Xue Ning were speechless. They could also sense agitation in Xu San Zhien’s voice, which was directed at Bai Chen.
“Elder Bai Chen, I’m here to beg for your mercy towards the Xu family. What my father did earlier was rude and he’s now repenting. He’ll come down and apologise to you in person later. Please have mercy!”
Xu San Zhien did not care what the rest in the room would think. He dropped to his knees. His face was full of regret.
It was obvious that for him, legendary realm cultivators were like gods!
Otherwise, it was impossible for the head of one of the five big families of Beijing to kneel in an apologetic manner before someone like this!
“Father!” Seeing what his father did, Xu Sin Xiao’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He opened his mouth wide.
Xu Jing Xie and Xu Xue Ning did the same.
However, Xu Xue Ning suddenly thought of something that she thought could best explain this situation.
She thought that her grandfather had already figured out that Bai Chen was a legendary realm cultivator!
If not, it was impossible that her grandfather would act like this.
Thinking about what her grandfather had said just now, Xu Xue Ning trembled violently.
It was obvious that her great-grandfather, a sky soaring realm cultivator, had offended Bai Chen!
Of course, Xu Xue Ning knew that her great-grandfather was a sky soaring realm cultivator.
She had only found out about it recently after Bai Chen had helped handle the incident with Tai Yang the Strange. Her grandfather had told her her great-grandfather was a sky soaring realm cultivator.
If she had known before that, she would have asked her great-grandfather to help the Lunar Land sect instead of Bai Chen.
“W…What’s happening, father?!?”
Xu Jing Xie could not help but speak with a trembling voice after the shock.
Hearing what his wife said, Xu Sin Xiao was awakened from the shock. He looked back and forth between his kneeling father and Bai Chen.
It was possible that maybe his father had misremembered. Bai Chen was Xu Xue Ning’s boyfriend, and it was impossible that an old man like Xu Sien Yi would have caused any trouble for him.
Xu Sin Xiao did not hesitate to speak.
“Please get up, father. You must have mistaken him for someone else. His name is Bai Chen, yes, but he’s not an elder or anything. He’s Xue Ning’s boyfriend!”
Xu Sin Xiao stopped for a moment before continuing, “I told you before, remember, that Xue Ning would bring her boyfriend home today.”
