Chapter 2109: Excitement

Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

The moment Xiao Ling heard Sima You Yue’s voice, his entire person became spirited as he immediately got up from the chair and rushed outside the store.

“Master! How did you come to the Abyss of Hell?” Xiao Ling excitedly wanted to go up and hug Sima You Yue, but Wu Lingyu pulled him away and he was left hanging in mid air.

Sima You Yue smiled at him: “I did say that I wanted to come here before!”

“But you said you didn’t know when you’ll come! I thought it would take a long time for you to come here, but I didn’t expect you to come so soon! How long have you been here? How did you know I was here?” Xiao Ling rattled on excitedly.

“It’s been more than a month.” Sima You Yue replied, she looked around and said, “Are you sure you want to catch up here?”

Xiao Ling looked around, they were on the street now, and people who came and went stopped to watch the fun when they saw that he was so excited.

The Xiao Clansmen who followed him out were even more astonished. Did they hear it right? Their Young Master calls this woman ‘Master’?!

“Master, let’s go inside and talk!” Xiao Ling made a gesture of invitation, and he followed after Sima You Yue.

“Steward, what’s the background of this woman? It turns out to be the Master of the Young Master. However, when did the Young Master have a Master? We haven’t heard of it!” The shopkeeper was very heartbroken when he thought of the comparison of Xiao Ling’s attitude before and after.

This gap was simply too big!

“Yes, Steward, who is this person?”

“It’s not only you who don’t know, even I don’t even know.” The Steward of the Xiao Clan replied earnestly.

“How could you not know? Don’t you follow the Young Master all the time?”

“That’s only after the Young Master came back, how would I know about his previous affairs in Abyssal City.” The Steward said wryly.

“So, this person is the Master that the Young Master acknowledged over there? Do they know about the Master?”

“I’ve never heard anything from the Patriarch. If it’s really a powerful person, Patriarch, they won’t hide the news.”

“So, the Patriarch and the others don’t know. Steward Xiao, you have to tell the Patriarch and them about this.”

“It’s natural.” The Steward of the Xiao Clan responded and turned around to tell someone to report.

He had been following Xiao Ling since he came back. The euphemism was to bring him familiar with the family’s business. In fact, he also has the task of supervising Xiao Ling. Now suddenly an inexplicable person appears, and he must report this matter back.

This was originally a tea house, Xiao Ling took Sima You Yue to the private room that was on the highest level and let people prepare the best tea.

“Xiao Ling, what were you doing just now? You’re so listless.” Sima You Yue asked after taking the seat.

“What else could it be? Since I came back, people have been taking me around to see the family’s properties. I was just listening to the shopkeeper’s report on the situation here?” He got angry when he said this, “Master, I’ll tell you, they just got me back and let me do these boring things.”

“No wonder.” Sima You Yue smiled clearly. Xiao Ling likes to cook and doesn’t like to manage these things. It was indeed a very painful thing for him to have him inspect the family’s property.

“Hey, my parents and the others insisted that I get to know the family’s business before letting me continue to open a restaurant. There was no other way, so I had to follow.” Xiao Ling felt depressed when he said this.

Sima You Yue thought a little more than he thought.

It seems that Xiao Ling’s parents were still not optimistic about his cooking, hoping to cultivate his interest in the family business through this . Unfortunately, the effect of this is not very obvious. Xiao Ling obviously didn’t understand what his parents meant. He just took this thing as a task to complete, and fantasized about finishing this thing quickly so that he could open a restaurant.

“By the way, Master, what are you doing here? Is there anything I can do to help?” Xiao Ling asked.

“I do have something I want to ask for your help, but I don’t know if you can help.” Sima You Yue said.

“Really? What’s the matter? Let me listen to you and see if there is anything I can do.” Xiao Ling didn’t finish his words all at once.

“I want to see Mu Lan.” Sima You Yue said.

“Pfft—” Xiao Ling just drank the tea in his mouth and made him spit it out, “Master, who do you want to see?”

“I want to see Mu Lan, the ruler of the Abyss of Hell.” Sima You Yue said, “I know this is difficult to handle. If you can’t help, it’s fine. But can you take me to the Imperial Capital?”

“It’s alright to take you to the Imperial Capital, but if you want to see your honor, I don’t have that much face.” Xiao Ling said, “But Uncle can.”

“Xi Er Mo?”

“Yes! Uncle and His Honor have a good relationship. If he can take you there, he should be able to see His Honor.” Xiao Ling said, “However, after returning to the Abyss of Hell, my uncle has been missing, he seemed to be searching for something, but haven’t heard anything from him.”

Sima You Yue was silent in her heart, she probably guessed it.

“Apart from your Uncle, is there any other way?” she asked.

Xiao Ling shook his head and said, “His Honor is currently in retreat. Except for those close to him, only those he summons can see him. Even if my parents go, it may not be possible.”

“But you don’t know where your Uncle is now.” Sima You Yue sighed.

If she couldn’t find Xi Er Mo, she couldn’t meet Mu Lan.

“There is a way to try it, but I don’t know if it will work.”

“Let’s have a listen.”

“Uncle seems to be very concerned about your affairs. When he returned to the Imperial Capital twice before, he asked about you. If the news of your visit to the Imperial Capital is spread out, maybe he will come back when he hears the news.”

But there is no way to confirm whether this method will work or not. In case he just asked casually before, he doesn’t care about her whereabouts, even if he hears the news of her coming, he may not necessarily come back.

“I can’t think of any other way right now, so let’s give this a try.” Sima You Yue said.

“Alright, then all the trips that follow me will be cancelled. I’ll take you back to the Imperial Capital first.” Xiao Ling went out and told the steward to prepare to go back.

The Steward wanted to persuade, but before he could say this, Xiao Ling had already gone back. He also knew Xiao Ling’s temperament, and even persuasion was useless, so he shook his head helplessly and ordered to prepare to return to the Imperial Capital.

The matter of the Young Master should be left to the Master and the others.

Xiao Ling returned to the private room and said with a smile, “Master, I have already relayed?the order to go, and we can leave in a while.”

“Thank you, Xiao Ling.” Sima You Yue said gratefully.

If he was unwilling to help then they could only rely on their own strength to go to the Imperial Capital.. If that was the case, they would?take more time and go through many setbacks.
