The wine is gone in one drink.

Xiao Sheng's hand holding the cup was trembling slightly.

It can be seen that he was quite uneasy in his heart, and this scene...has never happened in his dream.

Xiao Chen put down the cup, took the wine pot, poured wine for Xiao Sheng first, and then filled it with it.

"Come on, don't just drink and eat something, these... are all the food you loved when you were a child."

Xiao Sheng pointed to the dishes on the table and said to Xiao Chen.

"I grew up and I don't know what your taste has become. I can only ask the kitchen to make it according to your taste when you were a child."

Hearing Xiao Sheng's words, Xiao Chen nodded. He discovered these dishes just now.

He didn't expect that Xiao Shengyou remembered clearly, including what he liked to eat.

Is this... like a father who cares about his life or death?

Not like.

But why was that happening back then?

Whether from the location of the Xiantian Pavilion or the wine and food on the table, Xiao Chen could feel Xiao Sheng's concern for him, and even said fatherly love.

But why didn't he feel it back then?

"Why, don't like eating now? Or, I'll let them change to something else?"

Seeing that Xiao Chen was not moving, Xiao Sheng asked.

"no."

Xiao Chen shook his head and looked at Xiao Sheng.

"Can you tell me what you had in the past and why did you do that? If you want me to forgive you, you have to give me a reason to forgive you, right?"

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Xiao Sheng was stunned and then smiled bitterly: "Don't mention the things that happened back then, I'm sorry for you... I said it, I don't ask for your forgiveness. You can sit down, drink and chat with me. I'm already very satisfied, really."

"What are you hiding?"

Xiao Chen could see the bitterness in Xiao Sheng's eyes and asked in a deep voice.

"Some things have passed and I have told you, but it doesn't make any sense, so it's better not to say... Some things, but the time has not come, and I'll tell you, but it's not good for you."

Xiao Sheng picked up the wine glass and clinked the glass with Xiao Chen, regardless of whether he drank or not, he drank it all in one go.

"So, it's better not to say it."

“…”

Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Sheng. At this moment, he felt that it was not Xiao Sheng on the other side, but an old fortune teller.

Because many times, the old fortune teller deals with him like this.

Very annoying!

However, he still picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one go.

"Then can you tell me when the time comes? Will I return to the Xiao family? Or when?"

Xiao Chen put down his cup and asked slowly.

"I don't know either, wait for me... to come back."

Xiao Sheng thought for a while and said.

"Wait for you to come back? Where are you going?"

Xiao Chen frowned.

"To me, the head of the Xiao family is actually more like a shackle, trapping me in the Xiao family... Now that the shackle has been removed, I am going to leave for some time and go around."

Xiao Sheng smiled when he said this.

"Just like your seventh uncle, you traveled for a while and was free and easy... Now if it were him, he would be trapped in the Xiao family!"

"Just go around?"

Xiao Chen was a little disbelief.

"certainly."

Xiao Sheng nodded.

"In the popular words of your young people, the world is so big, I want to see... the outside world is not very exciting."

“When will I come back?”

Xiao Chen asked again.

"I don't know the return date, maybe it's very fast, three or five months, maybe it's very long, three or five years."

Xiao Sheng shook his head.

"When I come back, I will go to Longhai to find you and tell you everything!"

"Three years and five years?"

Xiao Chen frowned, so long?

"Are you going to travel around the world?"

Xiao Sheng was stunned and then laughed: "Hahaha, maybe I'm intrigued, I'm really going around the world!"

“…”

Xiao Chen didn't know what to say.

"How? Don't ask too much, let's have a good drink with me today. Let's have a gentleman agreement. When I come back, I will tell you what you want to know!"

Xiao Sheng poured the wine and picked it up.

"I don't need you to forgive me now. You can continue to resent me... After drinking this glass of wine, you will assume you agreed."

Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Sheng, and finally picked up the wine glass and clinked the glass with him: "Okay, gentleman agreement, wait for you to return!"

"Haha, cheers!"

Xiao Sheng laughed loudly. For many years, he had never been as happy as he is today.

As he said, he did not ask for Xiao Chen's forgiveness. He was already satisfied with being able to sit face to face with Xiao Chen, have a drink and chat.

As for the others, I will talk about it later!

Xiao Chen didn't ask any more questions. Since the agreement was made, just wait.

Three years and five years are not short, but what if I come back early?

Three or five months, it’s not impossible to wait.

Furthermore, he felt relieved after letting go of his complaints for the time being.

Before this, he didn't want to face Xiao Sheng, but after a few glasses of wine, he felt that it was nothing.

At least, he felt that the atmosphere was OK.

"The ancestor said that he would leave the Xiao family in the near future and go out for a while. The fifth ancestor is going to retreat..."

Xiao Sheng thought of something and said to Xiao Chen.

"Well, Lao Xiao told me about this."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Old Xiao discussed the meaning of life with me. He wants to see those old friends..."

Hearing the word "Old Xiao", Xiao Sheng pulled the corner of his mouth. This kid... became more and more comfortable!

"Now that the power of the Zong Laohui has been cut off, with your seventh uncle's ability, he will soon completely control the Xiao family... It won't take long for the Xiao family to become your backing."

Xiao Sheng looked at Xiao Chen and said.

"This is what the ancestor means."

"Old Xiao? He knows what I want to do?"

Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows.

"No matter what you want to do, there are always some benefits with the support of the Xiao family, right? Although the Xiao family has declined in my hands, it is still one of the twelve families."

Xiao Sheng said seriously.

"Especially, the ancestor gave the order to spend resources to cultivate experts. Perhaps it won't take long to see a large number of newcomers in the Xiao family."

"Well, when it comes to this, Lao Xiao is indeed courageous."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"I don't know much about the ancestor. Although I have seen him several times over the years, I haven't communicated much... The ancestor has been in seclusion before, because he was injured."

Xiao Sheng said slowly.

"This is why, the outside world speculates whether the ancestor is still there. Now it seems that his injury has completely healed."
