Huo Si nodded and performed a standard Western gentleman's courtesy, "Please forgive me, Mrs. Celia."
He has a sincere attitude, but he is tall and burly, and his clothes are so sloppy, no matter how standard his posture is, he still gives people a funny feeling.
Mrs. Celia was about to faint. She stared and wondered how there could be such a reckless person in the world.
Earl Lancaster narrowed his eyes and calmly glanced around.
The people he brought had disappeared, 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 quite a bit of trouble."
"maybe-"
Huo Si shrugged, "It's just, but how do you know that our behavior is not protection in disguise?"
Lancaster was dumbfounded.
"After all, in the assassination last night, more than half of the twenty bodyguards responsible for protecting Miss Alice were killed or injured. Before you are not sure whether you will continue to cause trouble for us, please stay quietly with your wife and daughter In the mansion, don’t leave here at will.”
"Of course, if you want to leave, you can do so now."
Huo Si made a gesture of invitation.
Earl Lancaster's face was gloomy, and he said coldly, "I want to see you sir."
"Sorry, sir is very busy. When he finishes his work, he will come to see you."
No matter how powerful the Lancaster family is in country y, this is not his territory, and he has no ability to bring all the power over.
It's just that foreigners probably don't know that there is a saying: a strong dragon does not overwhelm a local snake.
"Mr. Hou, please."
The old man was wearing a double-breasted jacket and walked in behind Uncle Zhang.
The environment here is quiet and the building is majestic, just like a fairyland.
Hou Lao hadn't been here a few times, he looked around, "It's been a few years since I came here last time? There hasn't been much change here."
Uncle Zhang smiled cheerfully, "Actually, there are still some changes, but you can't see them if you don't look closely."
He ordered the servants to pour tea, and he took the old man to the reception room.
"Maybe it is! Haha, the house is so big, only Yunque can stay there."
In such a big manor, there is only one master, and there is no one to talk to all day long.
Let alone a young man with a lively personality, even he is an old man, and he feels boring after living for a long time.
Uncle Zhang nodded approvingly, and said, "It's just that it's different now!"
They are about to have a mistress, so how can they still feel lonely
Hou Lao only thought that he was expressing emotion at the moment, but he didn't know that there was something in Zhang Shu's words.
The two walked while talking, and Hou Lao just took his seat not long ago.
There were footsteps outside the door.
Hou Lao raised his eyes and looked over, the man who has always been dignified and dignified walked into the reception room with a little girl on his back and a smile on his lips.
Huo Yunque nodded slightly, "Old Hou."
"Hey, Yunque, what are you—yo?"
When Huo Yunque put down the little girl on his back, Hou Lao saw her face clearly, and couldn't help but be taken aback, "This is not from the old Shen's birthday party that day..."
"It's me, Mr. Hou, hello."
Song Yaoyao smiled sweetly, and she greeted Mr. Hou politely.
Hou Lao didn't show it on his face, but his heart had already set off a storm. At that time, he was still wondering, which family's daughter was this extraordinary girl, who actually liked Lao Shen so much.
At that time, he asked curiously, but Mr. Shen just smiled and said nothing, just pretending to be mysterious and refused to talk about it.
