Chapter 688 House Arrest or Protection?

Huo Si nodded and gave a standard Western gentleman's ceremony, "Please forgive me, Mrs. Celia."

His attitude is sincere, but he is tall and big, and his clothes are so scrawled that no matter how standard his posture is, it gives people a funny feeling.

Mrs. Celia was about to faint, she stared, thinking how could there be such a reckless person in the world.

Earl Lancaster narrowed his eyes and looked around calmly.

The people he brought are gone, replaced by unfamiliar faces.

"You want to detain us? Huo, I have to say, even if we are not in country y, your behavior will still bring you not too little trouble."

"maybe--"

Huo Si shrugged, "Just, but how do you know that our behavior is not a disguised protection?"

Lancaster was dumbfounded.

"After all, in last night's assassination, more than half of the twenty bodyguards who were responsible for protecting Miss Alice were killed or injured. Before you are sure whether you will continue to cause us trouble, please stay quiet with your wife and daughter. In the mansion, don't leave here at will."

"Of course, if you want to leave, you can now."

Huo Si made a request.

Earl Lanxter's face darkened, and he said coldly, "I want to see your gentlemen."

"Sorry, Mr. is very busy. When he is done, he will come to see you."

No matter how powerful the Lankster family is in Country Y, this is not his territory, and he has no ability to bring all the forces here.

However, foreigners may not know there is a saying: A strong dragon does not overwhelm the local snake.

"Elder Hou, please."

The old man was wearing a short jacket and walked in behind Uncle Zhang.

The environment here is quiet and the building is majestic, like a fairyland.

Hou Lao hasn't been here a few times. He looked around, "It's been several years since I last came here, right? Nothing has changed here."

Uncle Zhang smiled cheerfully, "Actually, there are still some changes, but if you don't look closely, you can't see it."

He instructed the servant to pour tea, and he took Hou Laochao to the reception room.

"Maybe so! Haha, with such a big house, Yun Que can stay here."

In such a big manor, there is only one master, and there is no one to talk to all day long.

Not to mention a young man with a lively personality, even if he is an old man, he feels boring after living for a long time.

Uncle Zhang nodded in agreement, and said, "It's just that this time is different now!"

They are about to be the mistress of the house, how can they still feel lonely?

Hou Lao only thought that he was feeling the moment, but he didn't know that there was something in Uncle Zhang's words.

The two walked while talking, and Hou Laogang sat down shortly after.

Footsteps came from outside the door.

Hou Lao raised his eyes and looked over, the man who had always been generous and noble, carried a little girl on his back, and walked into the reception room with a smile on his lips.

Huo Yunque nodded slightly, "Hai Lao."

"Hey, Yunque, are you—yo?"

Waiting for Huo Yunque to put down the little girl on his back, Hou Lao could see her face clearly, and couldn't help but stunned, "This wasn't the old Shen's birthday banquet that day..."

"It's me, Mr. Hou, hello."

Song Yaoyao smiled sweetly, and she politely greeted the old lady.

Hou Lao's face did not show, but a storm was already set off in his heart. At that time, he was still wondering, which daughter is this extraordinary girl, to be so fond of Lao Shen.

At that time, he still asked curiously, but the old man Shen smiled but did not say a word, he just pretended to be mysterious and refused to say anything.
