Chapter 732: Chapter 722 Analysis (2)_1

"Hey, Family Head, we haven’t resolved our issue here yet, how can you leave?" Second Elder Master Xiao looked at Xiao Muli, ready to leave with Situ Xin, and suddenly refused to accept it. It was better to settle the matter of the Xiao Family’s matriarch sooner rather than later. Dragging it out was only becoming more disadvantageous for them.

Xiao Muli now had no time to care about what they were thinking. His main task was to hurry back and make his stance clear to Situ Xin’s family, explain the ins and outs of this incident, and to seek their forgiveness.

Xiao Muli didn’t know what expression to show when faced with the uncles from the Xiao Family collateral branches who were so anxious that they lost all measure and even used their bodies to block his and Situ Xin’s path. To say, these people he should call his uncles were no match for him, let alone the Situ Xin at his side.

However, both Xiao Muli and Situ Xin knew that if they started a fight today, they could easily push aside those blocking them, but the cleanup work that would follow was another matter. And if they encountered someone particularly stubborn, it might not be possible for them to leave.

Xiao Muli had been ready to call out the forces hidden within The Dark Division to stabilize these people. But he was one step behind, and Situ Xin had already taken initiative.

Situ Xin was not in the mood to argue with these people of the Xiao Family about the identity and status of the Xiao Family’s matriarch. To be honest, if it weren’t for Xiao Muli, the Xiao Family wouldn’t have caught her eye at all. "I really don’t understand, the position of Xiao Family Head’s wife may be the matriarch and in the future will represent the Xiao Family at some events, but that’s it. Why are all you Xiao Family people jumping around so much? Aren’t you all just trying to get a piece of the pie? Well then, I, Situ Xin, will make myself clear today. I originally had no interest in your Xiao Family’s drama but since you’ve pushed me into a corner, I’ll tell you this: I, Situ Xin, have decided to be the matriarch. If you have any objections, don’t bother your Family Head Xiao Muli, come directly to me. Oh, and I usually don’t have time for your trivial matters, don’t worry, I will send someone today to handle this," Situ Xin was truly driven into a corner this time. Seriously, they thought she was just a small cat that could only meow if she didn’t show her might.

Having said that, Situ Xin pulled Xiao Muli’s hand and swaggered out of the Xiao Family’s great hall. The Xiao Family members, along with Gao Yong and Gu Lili, were all stunned by Situ Xin’s overwhelming aura. By the time they came to their senses, Situ Xin and Xiao Muli had already disappeared, with no chance for them to catch up.

However, those few old men weren’t pushovers. By now, they should be able to see that Situ Xin was no simple character. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have struggled within the Xiao Family for so many years. They waved their hands grandly, leading their young family members as they made their way home.

Their return trip wasn’t out of fright; they were going to thoroughly investigate who Situ Xin really was and whether she was someone they couldn’t afford to provoke.

As those old men marched their juniors out without even bidding farewell to the Gu siblings, the great hall was left with only Gu Yong and Gu Lili. After the events of the previous night, Gu Lili’s petulant and wilful demeanor had vanished. She timidly looked up at her brother and asked, "Brother, they’ve all left, what do we do now?" Gu Yong frowned as he looked at the empty hall. He had come today hoping that Xiao Muli would turn a blind eye and spare their Gu Family. Now, they didn’t even know who was targeting their Gu Family.

Now, finding Xiao Muli’s whereabouts was even more impossible; what was the use of staying here: "Let’s go, let’s head back home." Back home, he would have to consult with his father and investigate who was behind all this.

After Situ Xin and Xiao Muli grabbed their luggage, Xiao Muli quickly explained a few things to his assistant and hurriedly drove off towards Capital City.

In Capital City, Old Master Xiao, brimming with excitement, ran to the Situ Family and boasted to Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo that his grandson, Xiao Muli, had successfully managed their granddaughter (Situ Xin). But when he saw both the old masters’ faces suddenly turn dark, he knew in his heart, "This is bad."
