Chapter 238 I'm the Uncle
Ye Lingfeng swiftly dodged, and he saw the pebble hit the tree behind him, deeply embedded in it. He looked at the person standing at the door and gritted his teeth, "Zhouzhou, have you seen through this person's true nature?"
Still gentle? More like wicked! Hearing this, Zhouzhou also looked at Xi Mo, tilting her head in confusion, "Uncle, why did you hit Sharp Tongue Uncle?"
"He deserves to be beaten!" Before Xi Mo could speak, a person suddenly rushed out from inside, wielding a broom and fiercely attacking Ye Lingfeng, cursing as he struck, "I was just about to find you, didn't expect you to come knocking first! You've got guts, huh? I'll make you regret it; you caused the death of my sister!"
As he spoke, he attacked even more vigorously. Ye Lingfeng looked at the red-haired person in front of him, not knowing where he got the broom from—it was filthy and faintly emitted a foul smell. He frowned, directly grabbing the person's wrist and exerting a little force. There was a sound like a pig being slaughtered, and the broom fell to the ground with a clatter.
His voice was thunderous, startling Zhouzhou as well. She covered her ears with her chubby paws, her round eyes staring at his throat. His voice was so loud!
Witnessing this scene, Xi Mo furrowed his brows slightly, walked forward to rescue Xi Yan, and when he was about to complain, he glanced at him sideways and said in a deep voice, "Shut up."
Zhouzhou was frightened. His gaze was ice-cold, and Xi Yan dared not speak anymore. He looked at Ye Lingfeng with a grievous expression and snorted heavily, filled with resentment.
This puzzled Ye Lingfeng. Why did the two brothers hate him so much? Also, when did he cause the death of their sister?
However, Xi Mo did not resolve his confusion. Without even glancing at him, his gaze fell on Zhouzhou, instantly softening. Of course, only Zhouzhou could feel this "gentleness."
"Come inside." He looked at Zhouzhou and spoke. After finishing, he glanced at Qin Lie, nodding slightly towards him.
Seeing this, Qin Lie felt surprised. He could sense that Xi Mo had no ill intentions towards him, as if he was only targeting Ye Lingfeng.
Sure enough, the next moment, Xi Mo coldly glanced at Ye Lingfeng, "Stay outside. If you dare step into the Xi family, you'll die!"
Ye Lingfeng burst into laughter. He was the military king, and he was also the killing god. Did Xi Mo really think he could kill him? What a joke!
He crossed his arms lazily and asked, "What if I insist on going in?"
Xi Mo's expression remained calm. "Then you can give it a try."
He spoke seriously, without any hint of joking. After finishing his words, he walked inside, casting another glance at Zhouzhou, indicating for her to follow.
Ye Lingfeng refused to believe it and was about to enter, but he was forcefully pushed back. Zhouzhou looked at the aura on his forehead and couldn't help shaking her head. This unlucky uncle!
"I've already told you not to go in, Sharp Tongue Uncle. Why did you still go? Do you want to get beaten?" Zhouzhou looked at him with a speechless expression. Her feet were firmly planted on the ground as she used her hands to push his leg backward.
After he left, An Ya finally breathed a sigh of relief and cautiously followed him, not daring to get too close.
As soon as they entered the house, the compass needle in Zhouzhou's hand turned and pointed to a room upstairs.
Following the direction, Zhouzhou's little nose twitched, confirming that An Ya's remains were there.
But she was puzzled. Why would they be here?
Gentle Uncle doesn't seem like a bad person either.
She scratched her head in confusion, unable to understand. So she directly asked, "Gentle Uncle, is my mother's remains here, right?"
Upon hearing this, Xi Mo glanced at the compass in her hand and remembered the information he had found. Without hiding anything from her, he promptly admitted, "Yes."
He didn't even ask who her mother was.
Qin Lie glanced at him, his fingertips lightly rubbing, deep in thought.
Thinking back to what Xi Yan said when Xi Yan beat someone earlier, he mentioned that Ye Lingfeng had caused the death of his sister.
Sister...
Something flashed in Qin Lie's eyes, could it be...
Zhouzhou looked at him in confusion, "That bad person who dug up Mom's grave before said that someone stole Mom's remains. Did Uncle steal them?"
Now Zhouzhou was even more puzzled. "Why?"
Yeah, why?
An Ya also perked up her ears, looking at him curiously.
She wasn't some beauty from Loulan, nor was she Corpse Number Two. Her bones weren't valuable, so why would anyone steal her?
Xi Mo didn't say anything, he lowered his gaze and looked at her, his big hand gently rubbing her small head, saying word by word, "Zhouzhou, I am your uncle."
