Chapter 310 Keep Your Eyes Open (2)_1
"Grandpa Xiao, Brother Muli, are you both okay?" After putting away the gun, Situ Xin approached Xiao Muli and Old Master Xiao with Baibai, asking with concern.
"We’re fine, thank goodness for you, Xiao Xin. Otherwise, who knows what might have happened to me and your Brother Muli today. Ah, it’s all my fault, my negligence." Old Master Xiao, now recalling those moments, was filled with immense regret. If it hadn’t been for his lack of vigilance, he wouldn’t have been kidnapped by Xiao Yongxin. His grandson Xiao Muli had nearly harmed himself because of this. Old Master Xiao didn’t even dare to think about what might have happened if Situ Xin hadn’t shown up.
"Grandpa, it’s not your fault, it’s mine for not protecting you well." Xiao Muli was also full of self-reproach. Today’s events were a result of his own carelessness, causing his elderly grandfather such a scare.
"Alright, both of you stop blaming yourselves. Everything has passed now, and everyone is safe," Situ Xin said. Then, seeing one of the mercenaries heading their way, she said to Xiao Muli, "Brother Muli, your subordinate is looking for you, probably to discuss matters concerning Xiao Yongxin. You should go quickly." Situ Xin was not keen on hearing them continue to criticize and reflect on themselves.
Besides, there was a large crowd still waiting to resolve the matter at hand.
After Xiao Muli left with his people, Situ Xin remembered to give her family a call. Even though she left a note, she figured her family must be in chaos by now.
"Grandpa Xiao, may I ask you for a favor?" While the Situ Family was hesitant to reprimand Situ Xin, for extra assurance, she decided to have Old Master Xiao make the call.
"Whatever it is, if I, Grandpa Xiao, can do it, I will do it for you, Xiao Xin." After the recent events, Old Master Xiao had grown even more fond of Situ Xin, feeling increasingly grateful.
