Chapter 353 The Uncle and Nephew Visit



Chapter 353 The Uncle and Nephew Visit

When Chen Wenjin and Huo Ling arrived home, they found Cheng Feng and Ah Xiang, the brother and sister, sitting in the living room drinking tea.

The two women sat down on the sofa, and then Huo Ling spoke:

"Honey, did Ah Xiang tell you about that bastard Wu Sansheng coming to Golmud?"

Cheng Feng nodded calmly in response.

At this moment, Chen Wenjin spoke up: "Wu Sansheng has always been a cautious person. He must have some purpose in coming to Golmud."

"Whatever his purpose may be, if you ask me, we should send someone to arrest him and give him a beating first."

Huo Ling and A Xiang had similar thoughts; they both wanted to teach him a lesson without considering the consequences.

However, Cheng Feng didn't say anything, so the two of them could only talk about it.

"Old Cheng, what are your plans for dealing with Wu Sansheng?"

When Chen Wenjin asked the question, the three women's gazes also focused on Cheng Feng.

"How to deal with him depends on what he has to say later."

Cheng Feng realized the truth when the two women returned home: Wu Sansheng's grand visit to Golmud was probably to see him.

So the one who should be worried now is not Cheng Feng, but Wu Sansheng, who has sent himself into the tiger's den.

The three women also figured out the key points, and then they all started drinking tea and chatting, waiting for Wu Sansheng to arrive.

Not long after, the phone rang at home.

Ah Xiang, the youngest member of the family, took the initiative to get up and answer the phone.

After returning, Ah Xiang said:

"Brother, Wu Sansheng and his nephew have come to our door. I've had them let in."

After a while, Huo Xin came to the living room to change the tea for everyone, and also brought some delicate tea snacks.

Wu Sansheng and Wu Xie arrived at just the right time, brushing past Huo Xin who was leaving.

Led by Hei Xiazi, the uncle and nephew entered Cheng Feng's house.

As Wu Xie passed through the specimens collected by Cheng Feng along the way, the young man revealed his naive side.

He would occasionally ask Wu Sansheng what this was and what that was.

The envy and amazement in their eyes were palpable.

"Nephew, could you please tone it down a bit?"

"Uncle, look! What kind of creature is that black and white lizard? I can't believe there are such creatures in this world!"

Wu Sansheng wished he could shut Wu Xie up. This was the home of his lifelong enemy. Couldn't he stop being so uncouth?

"That's a striped serpent dragon, a creature that lives in freshwater. If you encounter one of these underwater..."

Even I'm not confident I can escape unscathed.

The man in front, Hei Xiazi, began to explain to Wu Xie.

Although Hei Xiazi had no connection with Wu Sansheng, he had a good impression of Wu Xie, who had an innocent and naive face.

As they spoke, the three of them arrived at the living room.

Black Bear sat down on the sofa without any hesitation, picked up an apple, and said:

"Boss, I've brought the person to you."

After saying that, he started munching away, his eyes peeking out from behind his sunglasses as he watched the spectacle.

At this moment, Wu Sansheng and his nephew stood aside, while Cheng Feng and the others showed no intention of getting up to greet them, calmly drinking their tea.

Even Wu Xie felt uneasy, thinking to himself: Is this really an acquaintance or an enemy?

Wu Sansheng almost tore his shoes apart with his toes. Even though he had mentally anticipated this scene, he was still terrified when he actually faced it.

To break the awkward silence that was making him feel suffocated, Wu Sansheng nudged Wu Xie twice.

Then he gave Wuxie a look.

Wu Xie was practically rolling his eyes to the heavens. So, he was just brought along as a shield?

Helpless, since his third uncle was his own father, and he didn't want the atmosphere to continue any longer, he coughed and said:

"Aunt Wenjin, you still look so young and beautiful after all these years!"

Chen Wenjin smiled, then waved to Wuxie and said:

"You were standing there without saying a word, and I thought you were estranged from your aunt. Come and sit down to talk."

Wu Xie glanced at Wu Sansheng, but in the end, he couldn't bear to leave his third uncle alone in this awkward situation.

"Aunt Wenjin, is there some misunderstanding between my third uncle and you and these people?"

At this time, Wu Xie was still a recent college graduate, and her eyes still held a naive innocence.

These slightly naive words don't make people feel disgusted.

"Alright, Wuxie, go sit down. Our generation's affairs are none of your business."

Wu Sansheng spoke up at this moment.

Wu Xie glanced at his third uncle and noticed that his gaze had returned to calm after the initial complexity.

Without saying anything more, he walked over to the sofa and sat down next to Black Bear.

"Wu Xie, this is Xiu Xiu's aunt, Huo Ling. According to seniority, you should also call her Auntie."

"Aunt Huo Ling!"

Looking at Huo Ling, who looked like a young woman of sixteen or seventeen, Wu Xie couldn't help but wonder. Judging from her appearance, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was Huo Xiuxiu's sister.

“This is my sister-in-law, A-Xiang. You can just call her ‘sister.’”

"Hello, Sister Xiang."

Ah Xiang nodded in response.

At this moment, Cheng Feng calmly sipped his tea, while Wu Sansheng, that bastard, came to his house but didn't say a word.

Do you expect him to rush around asking questions? If he's not going to talk, he should just stand there.

"This is my husband, Cheng Feng."

Finally, Chen Wenjin introduced the male head of the household to Wu Xie.

Wu Xie looked curiously at the young man who, like his third uncle, had not uttered a word from beginning to end.

"Hello Uncle Cheng, my name is Wuxie. I didn't have time to prepare any gifts for my first visit, please don't mind."

Wu Xie then stood up and said somewhat shyly.

Cheng Feng looked up at the young and inexperienced Third Master Wu in front of him, then chuckled and said:

"Not bad, much better than your good-for-nothing third uncle. Have some tea first, then stay for a meal later."

Wu Xie chuckled awkwardly and lowered his head. He finally understood. This Uncle Cheng was Aunt Wen Jin's husband. He remembered that his third uncle and Aunt Wen Jin were a couple when he was a child.

It's already quite kind of them not to make things difficult for him, a junior, out of consideration for Aunt Wenjin.

"Wu Laosan, are you out of your mind? You came all this way to our house without saying a word, just to cause trouble?"

Huo Ling looked at Wu Sansheng impatiently and said sharply.

Wu Sansheng was also quite troubled by this eldest princess of the Huo family. After a helpless sigh, he said:

"Speaking of which, you took the Black Gold Ancient Sword from me, and a while ago you also took the information on Thunder City."

Why don't you even offer me a proper welcome when I come to your home as a guest?

Cheng Feng looked at Wu Sansheng with amusement and said quietly:

"The Black Gold Ancient Sword is the symbol of the Zhang family patriarch. When did it become the property of your Wu family?"

As for Thunder City, should we explain how Tian Youjin obtained its exact location?

Wu Sansheng felt relieved after Cheng Feng spoke, and then walked to the sofa without changing his expression and sat down next to Wu Xie.

"To you, Tian Youjin is just someone you can easily crush. Is it too much to ask for him as a reward for information about Lei City?"
