You can turn into a horse, I can fuse a mecha

It was getting late, but the Su family was brightly lit at the moment.Several important figures of the Su family hurriedly stepped over the bluestone slab under their feet, and walked quickly to the meeting hall.

"Second brother, what happened? The patriarch and several elders called a family meeting in such a hurry? Although it is indeed the day when Young Master Su Chen gets engaged, hasn't everything that needs to be explained already been explained? It's unnecessary. Shall we hold a meeting again at this time?"

"Don't talk too much! I heard that there is a problem with the Xia family. We only need to listen to what the elders and patriarchs have to say when we get to the meeting hall. It will be terrible if we say the wrong thing at this time."

Beside the Qingshi path, Su Chen and Xia Xiaowan looked at each other after hearing the brief conversation between the two in a hurry.

"What's wrong with the Xia family?" Looking at Xia Xiaowan, Su Chen spoke slowly.

Xia family has a problem?Could it be that the people from the Blood God Temple have already started to attack?Why is this the time?provocative?Or—are they putting pressure on the Su family, forcing the Su family to give up protecting Xiaowan, so as to get rid of all the Xia family?If this is the case, then is it my turn next?

Looking at the girl in front of her, Su Chen made guesses in her heart.

"No, I don't know. But I feel very flustered. It seems that something big is about to happen. Tomorrow is an important day for you and me to get engaged. It stands to reason that my father will come to Su's house today, but I haven't heard the news until now. —Father must be in trouble."

Su Chen vaguely had an answer in his heart, but seeing Xia Xiaowan's slightly pale face, he decided to swallow the words back and speak instead.

"You don't have to think about it too much. Uncle Xia is also a great fighting master. He used to be a soldier of the Empire. No matter how big the trouble is, he should be able to solve it. Since Father has called us over, let's go to the meeting hall first. "

"Ah."

Xia Xiaowan agreed softly, but her frown did not relax much.

The Su family's meeting hall was full of senior executives of the Su family, and the whole room was illuminated by the lighting spar like daytime.Ever since the Su family overwhelmed other families and became the sole overlord of Fengcheng, it has not been such an urgent meeting for many years.

The master sat on the heavy-faced Su Fu. At this moment, he was intermittently knocking on the long wooden table with his rough fingers, and there were five people sitting on each side of him. They were the nine elders of the Su family and Dou The head of the technical department, the long table is down, and the important figures of the Su family are seated one by one.

Everyone in this meeting hall today has some right to speak in the Su family. The youngest is in his 30s and above, and they are all the core of the Su family.This shows how important this urgent meeting is.

The entire conference hall was as dull as a pool of stagnant water, and everyone kept silent in unison.

This weird atmosphere didn't last long before it was broken by the arrival of two young people.

"Father."

"I met Uncle Su."

Su Chen and Xia Xiaowan, who stepped into the meeting hall, spoke to Su Fu, who was sitting on the master's seat.

The two who broke the silence stood side by side at the door of the meeting room. At the same time, all eyes were on the two of them, and there was an indescribable weirdness in their eyes and expressions.

Everyone remained silent, but Su Fu nodded slightly, and slowly replied, "Sit down."

The two looked at each other, and then sat down on the lower edge, a newly added position.

After taking his seat, the Great Elder on Su Fu's left said solemnly, "Su Fu, as the head of the Su family, I hope that every word you say and every decision you make will be based on the interests of the family.

I know that you are a father, and so am I, not only that, I am also Mu Xue's grandfather.But at this time, you can only be the patriarch of the Su family, and I can only be the great elder of the Su family. "

Su Fu didn't answer, but pinched the center of his brows with two fingers, breathing a little harder unconsciously.

The entire meeting hall fell silent again after the voice of the Great Elder fell.All eyes were on Su Fu, as if they were expecting his speech.

In the silent meeting hall again, Su Chen felt his cuffs being pulled by something, and when he lowered his head, he realized that it was Xia Xiaowan's hands.

At this moment, she lowered her head slightly, half of her pretty face was covered by black hair on her forehead. Although she couldn't see her expression clearly, Su Chen could probably guess it.Gradually, my palm was covered with a frail and boneless coldness, and it was Xia Xiaowan's hand that slid from her sleeve to her palm.

Xia Xiaowan's hands were cold and soft, but the strength from this softness was constantly increasing.

The little hand holding Su Chen was trembling slightly, as if he was afraid of something.As smart as Xiaowan, maybe she has already guessed something?

"Niece Xiaowan." Su Fu said slowly, he knew that even if he couldn't bear it, he still had to say this.Some things don't exist if they don't say it.

After a pause for a while, Su Fu took a deep breath and continued, "Niece Xiaowan, we just received news that the Xia family is gone."

Su Fu paused for the last two words before uttering them slowly.

At this moment, Su Chen could clearly feel that Xiaowan's delicate body trembled, and two lines of liquid passed across her drooping cheeks.

Su Chen had guessed from the beginning, but when she actually heard the news, she was still shocked.

The Xia family, even though the huge Xia family is not as powerful as the Su family, how could it just disappear?There are hundreds of people in the entire Xia family, and the head of the Xia family is a great fighter, and a great fighter who once worked for the empire!How could such a person, such a family, be "disappeared" so easily?

Su Chen clenched her hands tightly, and her face darkened accordingly.The Blood Temple is far more powerful than I imagined.

"Father, what does it mean that the Xia family is gone?"

Su Chen's voice was very low, and he looked like a beast about to roar out.

Su Fu shook his head slightly, "I just received the news from the Xia family that the Xia family was massacred overnight by unknown forces, and there were [-] people in the Xia family—no one was spared. And Xiao Wan's father, Brother Xia——in order to protect the Xia family, he fought to the last moment.

During this time, the Su family did not receive any call for help.I don't know that the opponent is too strong and there is no time to ask for help.Or brother Xia, he already knew it would be like this."

"With such a big event, it is impossible to continue the engagement ceremony tomorrow. According to this elder, this marriage needs to be reconsidered and considered in the long run." The fifth elder knocked on the table and spoke slowly.

Hearing this, the elder nodded slightly, "That's true. If the Xia family is gone, then this marriage will be meaningless. This is no longer a marriage between families, so let's cancel the marriage of the two children."

"The Great Elder is right. If the marriage continues, not only will it not bring any benefits to my Su family, but it will even make the Su family have an unknown opponent with unknown strength. This kind of harm is useless and has no benefit. I do not agree to continue."

"."

Perhaps it was a few elders who started the conversation, and most of the people began to speak for a while, the general meaning of which was to cancel the marriage of two people.

Su Chen deeply engraved every word these people said in her mind, and gradually, her clenched fingers began to turn white.

I never thought about how ruthless these people can be for the so-called family, and now I have seen it.Indeed, in their eyes, the interests of the family are above all else, and the interests of the family are the premise of everything. For the sake of the family, everything can be abandoned, everything can be abandoned, as long as the person who is abandoned is not themselves or someone important to them. up.

There is nothing wrong with canceling the marriage between families.But at this special moment, publicly announcing the marriage is tantamount to giving up on Xia Xiaowan.A girl who is not a fighter, how much life can she have without the protection of the Su family?
Having said that, I am also the target of the Blood God Temple. If those people put me on the must-kill list, will I, who is just a waste to them, be abandoned as well?

Every word and every word in her ear seemed to be repelling herself, Xia Xiaowan tightly grasped the warm palm next to her, and now this was the only thing she could hold.Sitting here alone with the surname Xia, it seems that, as they said, it is a bit redundant.Without the Xia family, without my father, would my own existence become a burden and trouble?

That's right, they always cared about the Xia family, not Xia Xiaowan.Without his father, he should be abandoned, isn't this always the case on the mainland?
Su Chen could clearly feel the tightening force of the palm of his left hand again, and after gripping hard, he took a deep breath with a little trembling, "Dare to ask the elders, according to your wishes, since the marriage is cancelled, what do you want to do with the little one?" Wan?"

As soon as these words came out, those elders who had been talking about the family fell silent immediately, looking at each other but no one spoke.

In fact, they already had the best way to deal with Xia Xiaowan in their minds, but everyone was tacit to each other, and no one was willing to say it out loud.

"If Xia Xiaowan has nowhere to go, she can stay at my Su's house temporarily."

Hearing the word temporary residence, Su Chen laughed angrily, "Haha? The Su family is really generous, and they are willing to take Xiao Wan to live in the Su family temporarily."

Su Chen's unabashed sarcasm made those elders who thought highly of themselves slightly displeased.

"Su Chen! Pay attention to your identity, do you know who you are talking to right now?" The fifth elder slammed his knuckles on the table, staring at Su Chen, trying to make this usually timid kid Shut up.

Unexpectedly, Su Chen not only didn't hold back and shut up, but continued to laugh and said, "Of course I know who I'm talking to now. I'm talking to the elders of the Su family—a bunch of cowards."

"presumptuous!"

"Bastard! You are bold!"

"In the meeting hall of the Su family, how can you, a junior, be allowed to be presumptuous here? Get out of here, Elder."

Su Chen glanced at the crowd who were anxious because of his own words, and the corners of his mouth were full of sarcasm.

"You have called me Su Chen for more than ten years. During this period, have you ever heard me say, even if it is a word 'no'? Hehe, now I just said it once, you old guys will Can't help it?

I asked you just now, I said how do you want to deal with Xiaowan.Hehe, I know the answer in your heart, since you don't say it, then I will say it for you.You hope that Xia Xiaowan can consciously leave the Su family, so that the Su family can avoid all troubles.Not only can you keep your glamorous face, but also avoid any conflicts to the greatest extent, this is the answer in your heart, am I right? "

The Great Elder shook his beard, and his cloudy old eyes fell on Su Chen.Indeed, what Su Chen said was exactly what they thought in their hearts. If the Xia family existed, then their marriage would be a marriage, and the Su family would benefit from nothing.But in this situation, continuing to marry would do no good at all, and the best way to deal with it was naturally to make Xia Xiaowan disappear.In this way, there is no need to make enemies with unknown powerful forces, and the Su family's face can be preserved.

It's just that such an approach is a bit cruel to a teenage girl.But as long as she doesn't enter the Su family's door for a day, she will be an outsider after all, and the entire Su family is bet on an outsider. If she is young, her blood may surge.But now that he is the great elder of the Su family, every decision he makes will affect the future of the family.

This kid Su Chen seems to be much smarter than before, he hit everyone's thoughts with one word, but so what?I am the elder, the core of the Su family!Everything is done for the benefit of the family, what's wrong with that?Besides, no matter what decision I make, even a dignified elder will not have the turn of a junior to teach me a lesson!
