As soon as Ye Dong and Xia Mingzhu reached the city gate, two extremely handsome young men came out. When they saw the two of them, their faces were filled with surprise and then joy. They shouted excitedly: "It's Mingzhu."
Miss, that’s great, Miss Mingzhu is back!”
Ye Dong was a little worried at first, whether something like Qiu He would happen again, but now he finally felt relieved. This was the attitude he should have towards the family's jewel.
Following the shouts of the two young people, more than ten young people rushed out of the city gate and immediately surrounded Xia Mingzhu. Moreover, intentionally or unintentionally, they actually mistook Ye Dong for being a transparent person.
The air was even pushed aside deliberately.
Xia Mingzhu didn't notice this, because at this moment she was also immersed in the excitement of finally going home, while Ye Dong just smiled noncommittally and walked aside.
"Miss Mingzhu, you are finally back. You didn't even know that our ancestors have been going crazy with anxiety during this period!"
"Yes, I heard that I was almost ready to inform Master Mingyue. Fortunately, my ancestor stopped me at the last moment."
"Fortunately, Miss, you are back safe and sound, so congratulations!"
Everyone gathered around Xia Mingzhu, talking about what happened after she sneaked out of the house. Everyone looked excited, as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood, but most of them seemed to have only one purpose.
, that is, showing courtesy.
In fact, these people are not direct members of the Xia family. They are either from the collateral line or are disciples with other surnames accepted by the Xia family. They have no blood relationship with Xia Mingzhu, and they have only one purpose for being so attentive, which is to hope that they can
Get Xia Mingzhu's favor!
Xia Mingzhu is a direct descendant, the apple of the Xia family's eye, and the biological sister of Xia Mingyue, the future head of the family. If you can win her favor, you can imagine what kind of benefits you will get.
What's more, Xia Mingzhu herself is also a beautiful woman.
Xia Mingzhu suddenly waved her hand to interrupt everyone's voices, stood on tiptoes to find Ye Dong, who was standing far away from the crowd, waved her hand and said: "Brother Ye, come here!"
Brother Ye!
Such an affectionate name immediately made the faces of the dozen or so young people around him show unpleasant looks.
Of course they saw that Ye Dong appeared with Xia Mingzhu, but they were just deliberately ostracizing him. None of them wanted the Xia family's pearl to fall into the arms of outsiders.
"Miss, who is he? I don't think he is a good person!"
"That's right, Miss Mingzhu, you have a kind nature and are inexperienced in the world. Don't be deceived by others. Some people may look honest on the outside, but they are all bad inside."
"Shut up!"
Xia Mingzhu suddenly shouted loudly, interrupting everyone's voices. A layer of frost covered her pretty face that was originally full of smiles. She glanced at everyone around her coldly and said: "He is my savior. If you...
If you dare to disrespect him, you are disrespecting me."
One sentence silenced everyone's mouths. Even if they still had hatred for Ye Dong, they did not dare to express it in front of Xia Mingzhu.
However, in their hearts, they firmly believe that Ye Dong is a liar, a pretty guy who is not even handsome and wants to climb high.
Among the elves, the men are handsome and the women are stunning. There are many handsome men and beauties, so they have never looked down upon foreigners just because of their appearance.
At this time, the young man who first discovered Xia Mingzhu whispered: "Miss Mingzhu, the third grandfather is in the city. You'd better pay your respects to him first. He will definitely be very happy when he sees you."
Xia Mingzhu nodded and said: "I understand, Brother Ye, come with me to meet the Third Grandpa, he may be able to help you!"
Because of the attitude of these young people, Ye Dong was already slightly disgusted with the elves. If it weren't for saving Xia Ruyan, he would have just walked away.
Now, as soon as he heard that the third grandfather might save Xia Ruyan, no matter how dissatisfied he was, he was instantly thrown out of the sky and walked over immediately.
Several young people from the Xia family happened to be standing in front of Ye Dong. When they saw him approaching, they looked at each other and sneered, and they all released a wave of resistance, trying to embarrass him.
Ye Dong was completely unaware. He strode forward without even the slightest pause, and came to the resistance. With an inadvertent shake of his shoulders, several waves of dark energy suddenly surged out and crashed into the young men.
"Bang bang bang!"
Several muffled sounds were heard, and the young men each let out a muffled groan, and their bodies stumbled back uncontrollably, and some even sat down directly on the ground.
Their strength is not even as good as Xia Mingzhu, so how can they stop Ye Dong.
However, their fall gave the other Xia family members an excuse to stand in front of Ye Dong. They all looked at each other coldly. The leader even pointed at Ye Dong and said: "The person named Ye
, why do you want to attack them!"
Everyone suddenly felt that their eyes were blurred, and Ye Dong's figure had suddenly disappeared in front of them, but behind them, Ye Dong's voice rang out: "Mingzhu, is your third grandfather really sure?"
Obviously, Ye Dong didn't bother to pay attention to them at all and simply ignored their existence.
This was really a slap in the face, making these more than ten young people blush. Being looked down upon and ignored were two different feelings!
As the Xia family who had once given birth to the Emperor of Heaven, they had never been ignored like this before. If Xia Mingzhu hadn't been present, they would definitely have taught Ye Dong a lesson right now.
"I'm not sure, but it should be almost the same. Come on, I'll take you to ask."
Xia Mingzhu also ignored the group of young people behind her who were like aggressive roosters. She talked to Ye Dong and walked side by side towards the city.
As soon as the two entered the city gate, they saw a ray of light rushing toward them. After landing, an old man with white hair and beard appeared. Although he was older, it could be seen that he was also a handsome man when he was young, but his appearance was a bit sinister.
Naturally, he is Xia Mingzhu’s third grandfather, Xia Dongen.
"Third Grandpa!" Xia Mingzhu immediately bowed obediently and greeted sweetly.
"Mingzhu, you are finally back!"
With a smile on his face, Xia Dongen affectionately pulled Mingzhu to his side, but his eyes were like those of the young people before, deliberately treating Ye Dong as air and ignoring his existence.
At this moment, there was a hint of anger in Ye Dong's heart. The young man was arrogant, and because he liked Xia Mingzhu, he was rude to him. However, Xia Dongen, as the elder of the Xia family, had the same attitude.
