I am Lapland’s rat!

Texas sighed softly and gave Wu Xian a very soft look on the ground, and then the expression on his face returned to its usual calmness.

At this time, Duck Lord walked up to the two wolves. He shook his neck and said in his weird tone:

"How about it, do you still need me to give you some private time?"

"Mr. Duck Lord..."

Texas was a little surprised and grateful: "No, let's go now."

Duck Lord clicked his tongue:

"Young people, you should cherish the time to communicate with the people around you. Even if the road to success is always lonely, if there is no one around you to cheer when you reach a high position, then it cannot be called true success, do you understand?"

"For the boy's sake, I can wait for you a little longer."

Duck Lord's words have a sense of humor and seriousness, making it difficult to tell whether he is seriously admonishing others or just joking.

While talking, the duck pretended to lift its left duck wing and looked at the tip of its own duck wing.

It was obvious that no watch was worn there.

"..."

Texas discovered that the relationship between Silver and Duck seemed to be better than it had previously said.

Could this be a tacit understanding between beast owners?

"Haha, let's go. Even if we don't have this time, we can still become what you call a success." Lapland responded to Duck Lord's words with a smile as if she were joking as usual, and took a step towards the way we came. pace.

"Ok?"

Lord Duck glanced at Lapland, then opened his beak and said with a rare quack:

"Well, this is a rare explanation. I think you are right, at least in terms of confidence, you have reached half of me."

Texas: "..."

At the same time, she was also a little envious of Lapland, who could talk to anyone.

Wu Xian shook his beard and quickly followed Laplande's footsteps. Then he turned around and said, "Can we stop chatting?"

Edmund ran away later!

……

So the two of them walked in the same direction as the duck and the mouse, and hurriedly got off the elevator after discovering that the film young man was no longer in the conference room.

Finally, they met Edmund downstairs of the Rhine Life office building.

However, Edmund didn't seem to have any intention of running. When Wu Xian took the lead and ran out of the office building, he saw the black-haired young man standing next to a car on the side of the road.

He made no move to get in the car. When a group of people exited the building, his eyes came over and met Texas's eyes in mid-air.

"..."

Needless to say.

Edmund was obviously waiting for Texas, and he also knew that Texas might have many questions to ask him.

Salvatore's subordinate, the young man from the film industry who had just strongly supported Silver Wolf Security at the shareholders' meeting, was already prepared for this.

However, when he discovered that Duke Duck actually followed Texas until Texas walked in front of him, instead of just going the same way——

Edmund still showed a very shocked expression.

At the edge of the road, Edmund couldn't help but cast his eyes on Duck Lord, then hesitated for a moment, and said in a respectful tone:

"Mr. Duck Lord, next I hope to talk with Miss Cellinina and Miss Lapland about some family matters..."

The implication is that the next thing is a family matter of the Texas family, and it is still inconvenient for Lord Duck to interfere as an outsider.

But how could Yajue do this? He directly asked dissatisfiedly in his weird voice:

"Is there anything on this earth that I can't understand?"

Edmund: "..."

He saw a faint look of contempt coming from behind the shadow covered by the little hat on Ya Jue's head. Wu Xian next to him felt for a moment that Ya Jue's look was passed down from him personally.

"During the Great Pioneer Period, Salvatore accepted my investment! I think that young man was a rare success, but I didn't expect his men to be so blind?"

Seeing that Edmund didn't speak, Lord Duck became even more aggressive. He pointed at Edmund with his free duck wing and said dissatisfiedly:

"If he hadn't had a descendant who could see things through, this failed family would have been defeated by mediocre people like you sooner or later!"

Edmund's cheek twitched.

yes!The duck in front of me is the immortal beast master. I guess I have known him since I was young.

Lord Duck calls Salvatore, an old man who is 80 or [-] years old, a young man. How can he refute this?

However, Duck Lord's words not only embarrassed Edmund, Texas next to him couldn't help but move his eyes, and began to think wildly in his mind:

Yes, Ya Jue and Grandpa Salvatore can be said to be peers, and Xiao Yin and Mr. Ya Jue are friends...

Doesn't that mean that for her, Xiaoyin is also a grandfather?

- No no no!

Oh, Cellinina, stop it!

I don’t want the kind face of Grandpa Salvatore to pop up in my mind when I see Little Silver in the future!

……

Wu Xian, who was squatting on the ground, didn't know what Texas was thinking now. He looked at Edmund in front of him. After hesitating for a long time, he still didn't want to offend Lord Duck, so he had to say:

"Well, Mr. Duck, if that's the case... I really have no right to prevent you from listening to our conversation."

"Are you saying I'm not qualified to speak?"

Duck Lord slapped his chest and his funny voice suddenly became louder.

"No, it's not like that..."

Edmund's temples were almost sweating, and he quickly smiled bitterly.

He really didn't expect that the beast master next to the eldest lady who chose Saluzzo's heir could actually invite the Duck Lord, and that the Duck Lord, who usually has many things to do, was still so free, and he looked like he was going to help Chelinina to the end. look.

And now obviously there is no time to dial the communication to ask the master for instructions...!

Edmund was in a dilemma and had no choice but to take a step back and said: "Okay, Mr. Duck, the eldest lady, Miss Lapland, and Mr. Little Silver, let's find a quiet place to chat."

"……Um?"

As if he was suddenly awakened, Texas made a sound from his nasal cavity.

"Why are you still distracted?"

Lapland is a bit strange.

"It's nothing."

Texas turned his face aside expressionlessly.

Chapter 1 Many Questions

Although Edmund said he wanted to find a coffee shop, Yajue said he had property in Tremont and took the group directly to a private room in a high-end club not far from the office building.

Here, Wu Xian met another acquaintance.

I don’t know how Gopnik moved. Anyway, when the three of them, a duck and a mouse, arrived outside the box door, Wu Xian saw Gopnik, who was covered in fur and wearing sunglasses, standing at the door like a door god with his chest in his arms. beside.

Obviously they didn't see the Duck Lord's bodyguard along the way!

Duck Lord walked over and slapped Gopnik's belly with his wings. Gopnik suddenly got excited, as if he had just woken up from sleep, and looked around.

After discovering that it was Lord Duck, the Ursus man quickly rearranged his posture with some embarrassment, adjusted the distance between his feet, and then continued to stand still.

"...Did you just fall asleep?!"

Wu Xian shook his beard.

The silent Gopnik always gave him a very serious feeling. Unexpectedly, the sunglasses he wore had the function of making it difficult for people to see that he was slacking off.

However, I don't know how Yajue discovered that Gopnik was sleeping. Wu Xian obviously felt that his standing posture was quite standard, which gave the mouse a clear sense of oppression.

……

The interior of the private room was mainly designed in dark colors, and Wu Xian found that Yajue seemed to like this style of decoration.

After entering the box, Yajue naturally put his silver suitcase on the shelf next to him, then walked to the sofa in the back of the box, sat down on it, and hung his wings comfortably on the side. , as if he wanted to watch a show.

"..."

So Lapland, Texas and Edmund also walked over and sat on the sofa.

Lapland and Texas sat on the left and right sides of the couch respectively, while Edmund sat on the short couch on the other side of the coffee table.

In fact, both Texas and Edmund felt that there was not much heaviness in the atmosphere after Duck Lord made such a fuss.

Therefore, when all four people sat in the box, Edmund simply sighed and said in a gentle tone:

"Miss, if you have anything to ask, you can ask it now."

"..."

Wu Xian blinked, jumped on the coffee table between the three of them, and looked at Edmund.

Edmund doesn't look like a villain either.

He seemed to be just a middleman conveying instructions to Salvatore, and had no particular ill will or obedience towards Texas.

After a moment of silence, Texas spoke as everyone expected:

"Grandpa...when did he know I was back?"

Upon hearing this question from Texas, Edmund answered without any hesitation:

"Three days after the eldest lady set foot on Tremont. Because Miss Sophia was attacked in the wilderness, when Miss Sophia went to find Swanov, for the sake of safety, the family secretly investigated that Miss Sophia boarded the The people and things I’ve come into contact with since Tremont.”

"In the process we discovered the two young ladies who had ascended Tremont with Miss Sophia."

"..."

An unexpected and reasonable answer.

When Wu Xian heard this, he suddenly realized that they had never thought about one thing, and that was whether the Texas family's response to Sophia's attack was a little too bland.

After all, even if they set foot in Tremont, they can't say that the crisis has been completely resolved, and even so, the Texas family has not sent any additional bodyguards to Sophia!

It turns out that Salvatore already knew what was going on from that moment on.

After hearing this, Texas also sighed.

She then asked: "Why do you keep hiding it from me?"

Edmund still replied quickly and sincerely: "Actually, the master did not hide it deliberately, he just didn't say it out loud. If the eldest lady wishes, she can always call the master's private communication."

"——Then why did he hide it from the rest of the family? At least Uncle Mosedi definitely didn't know about it before, and Aunt Georgia and the others definitely knew nothing about it."

When asked this question, Edmund hesitated.

But this also meant that he knew the answer to the question, so he said it bluntly:

"This is my protection for you, young lady."

Edmund looked into Texas's eyes and said seriously,

"If I announce your return to the family, no matter whether it is the eldest young master or the second young master, they will take action against you. And there is nothing I can do to stop you from these things."

"Sir, I hope that even if you return to Colombia, you can continue to grow like you did in Syracuse."

……

Texas' eyes widened slightly.

Edmund didn't seem to be lying, but the content of what he said was completely beyond Texas' expectations.

Has she been misunderstanding Grandpa since she returned to Colombia?

Grandpa was actually doing her best, and he used these methods only because he could no longer fully control the family...

And this is also true. Aren't those people trained by Uncle Mosedi not within the control of grandpa?

While hesitating, a sentence blurted out:
