Chapter 8 The old man is angry
Xu Yi didn't want to think too much, but he had a vague premonition in his heart, always feeling that the visitor was not good.

He laughed at himself, maybe it was the shrewd, ruthless, and powerful aura of the young commander who made people feel threatened, so he came up with this idea, right?
"Shit!" With a low curse, he lowered the car window, and he popped the cigarette butt out of the window, then stepped on the accelerator to the end, and drove into the distance at lightning speed.

At the end of the road is the Xu family mansion.

The European-style villas are equipped with all kinds of facilities, rich and luxurious, and the servants are equipped with a separate western-style building.

The status of the Xu family in the He country is more than average. Master Xu is highly regarded by the president. He is nearly seventy years old and still holds the military power. He is in charge of the Seventh Army and served as the commander of the army for nearly 30 years.

The Xu family has been a military family for generations, and the gates are strictly controlled. Family members must go home before nine o'clock in the evening, otherwise the family law will serve them.

Of course, Xu Yi is an exception.

He is Xu Zhenbang's only son, and he was born in the middle age, so naturally he has high hopes.

Over the years, half of the power of the Seventh Army has been handed over to him, and he will inevitably have to deal with military affairs at night, so it is understandable to return late.

When Xu Yi stepped into the hall, it was exactly eleven o'clock. The old housekeeper, Xu Jiang, waited in the foyer with people as usual. When he saw him, his tense expression relaxed.

"Third Young Master, you're back!" the housekeeper suppressed his voice, and his tone was relieved.

"Is the old man angry again?" Xu Yi touched the right side of his neck, and his fingertips touched the dried blood.

He didn't even frown. The butler noticed the wound and asked in a panic, "How did you get hurt?"

"Isn't it common for me to be injured?" Xu Yi ignored it and walked into the hall.

The hall is brightly lit, and the lights are still on at this point, which means that the old man is not asleep.

He went straight upstairs to the study on the second floor, and as expected when he opened the door, he saw his family members were there.

"Father." He greeted his father who was sitting on the leather chair behind the desk. Xu Zhenbang turned his back to the door and did not turn around.

The atmosphere in the study was not right, especially the two girls on the sofa had their eyes downcast and their faces turned pale.

"Ah Yi..." Seeing him, the girl with short hair spoke softly, with joy in her eyes, asking him for help.

Another long-haired girl raised her eyes, her eye sockets were flushed, tears fell instantly after holding back her grievances for a long time, the girl was beautiful and moving, crying silently, pear blossoms with tears.

Xu Yi frowned, stepped forward lightly, and asked in a low voice, "...what's the matter?"

The long-haired girl choked up slightly, and looked behind the desk, not daring to cry, but grabbed his sleeve.

"Second sister?" Xu Yi looked at the short-haired girl, frowning.

The short-haired girl shook her head, pointed at the desk with concern, but did not dare to make a sound.

Xu Yi's face darkened. It seems that the second sister caused trouble and made the old man angry. It is estimated that the matter is not small.

"Dad..." He walked over and reported to his father as a matter of routine, "Last month, the Seventh Army ranked first in all inspections. The sixth son asked me to tell you that I will ask you for a drink on weekends."

"Want to drink or take the opportunity to blackmail?" As soon as the military affairs were mentioned, the old man immediately changed his attitude and turned around, "You remember to tell Lao Liu that when his Sixth Army ranks first three times in a row, I will invite him for a year wine!..."

Xu Zhenbang had a dignified face, but these words were made in jest, which eased the atmosphere a lot.

The two girls breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly gave Xu Yi a thumbs up, and the Xu family was the only younger brother who could settle the old man.

Knowing how to change the topic to defuse the atmosphere, and the topic is just right, almost saved them from dire straits.
