Chapter 899: The Father and Son Hide Deeply
Tea room.
Ming Dailan casually closed the door, walked to the tea counter and sat down, gracefully picking up the tea tongs to select the tea leaves.
Xiao Hongdao looked at her calmly, "Today’s news, you didn’t seem surprised at all."
Ming Dailan continued her actions, raising her eyes to meet his, "Surprised by what? They always keep things hidden, not clarifying would have been strange."
"Oh?" Xiao Hongdao subtly raised an eyebrow, picking up a medical book, and teased casually, "I thought you would seize the moment, maybe teach your eldest son a lesson."
Ming Dailan lowered her eyelids in the guise of selecting tea leaves, hiding the fleeting shock in her eyes.
She picked a few tea leaves and tossed them into the teapot, her gaze gentle, "I’ve told you before, I have my own ways to teach him. This time you exposed our family scandal, should I reveal the gruesome details of our child’s death?"
Xiao Hongdao’s fingers paused, he glanced slightly at Ming Dailan, seeing traces of resentment and sadness on her still graceful face.
He pressed his lips together, stood up and walked to her side, comforting her warmly, "You’re overthinking it, that’s not what I meant."
Ming Dailan shrugged, giving him a glance, "You can deal with them however you want, but why use something from eleven years ago to humiliate me? And also, who is Landis? I don’t recall anyone by that name in the Knight Squad."
Xiao Hongdao lowered his eyes, a faint smile forming deep within, "I can deal with them any way I want?"
"What do you mean by that?" Ming Dailan pressed the button on the kettle, her side profile appearing cold, "When have I not sided with you? I traveled all the way to Dian City to help you win over Andrew. Are you implying I might take their side now?"
