That fellow came back to his senses, his eyes shining with astonishing brightness.
The determined look in his eyes made Grandpa Xiao and Xiao Grandmother, who later saw the unfamiliar visitor, frown tightly.
They had a feeling that things were about to become troublesome.
And that was exactly what happened.
"That fellow is very patient, and very strategic."
"He kept wearing us down, trying to make us give in."
"It's only been one day, but your mother, your grandparents, and I are already so annoyed that we want to throw him out."
Father Xiao's account made Xiao Xiao laugh despite himself.
It seemed Father Xiao really was getting impatient.
"Just thinking about that fellow coming again tomorrow is giving me a headache."
Father Xiao reached up and rubbed his brow. "But we can't exactly drive him out by force."
The other party was shamelessly coveting someone else's belongings...
They had made everything perfectly clear, yet he still refused to give up.
"He probably won't tell anyone else yet."
"If we push him into asking someone else for help, this really will never end."
It was precisely because they feared this that the Xiao family found themselves unable to act freely.
Even dealing with one person was already this difficult.
If several more came, would they still have any peaceful days left?
"Dad, you don't need to worry about this anymore. Just as Grandpa said, leave it to me."
Xiao Xiao repeated himself once more. Before Father Xiao could speak, he added, "Dad, go get some rest."
"It's very late."
"If Mom realizes you're missing later, she might come looking for you again."
Father Xiao moved his lips a few times, but in the end swallowed the words he had intended to say.
