Chapter 1166: Little Angel and the Lunatic 08
The person peeking outside the high wall immediately went back to report.
"Master, Madam, Jin Chen is keeping a lover in the back courtyard."
Fu Suhua frowned dubiously; the prayer beads in her palm were smooth and shiny, having been handled for years, and upon hearing this she began to turn them again.
"He actually keeps a lover… how novel."
Jin Xiangming's reaction was stronger; his instinct was that there must be some trick: "Over these years I haven't failed to try the beauty stratagem, but so many people sent openly and covertly have been thrown out by him, and some have even vanished completely."
Later he came to understand, perhaps the madman is just different from ordinary people, the beauty stratagem simply doesn't work, so he gave up the idea of continuing to send people.
But who would have thought that after a few years, Jin Chen actually kept a lover himself.
"Could it be someone from abroad come to help Jin Chen?" Jin Xiangming, not forgetting Jin Chen's status, asked the mother seated in the center.
Fu Suhua slowly shook her head: "After so many years, her influence has probably long since dissipated; it's impossible for anyone to still come."
"Keep sending people to watch; report any sign of movement."
Jin Xiangming drove the person out, then continued discussing with Fu Suhua: "In my view we should keep observing to see what kind of lover he likes."
"By the way, prepare a few suitable beauties; either win over that lover or find someone to replace him."
Fu Suhua never worries about how he wants to deal with Jin Chen; she slowly closed her eyes and nodded, her already aged voice unable to conceal its malice.
"Do whatever you want; anyway, Jin Chen is now a lunatic, nothing he does is surprising."
The two were chatting when suddenly hearing footsteps, they looked up warily and saw Jin Zhiyan leading in a handsome man.
"How dare you bring him back!" Jin Xiangming fumed, rapping his knuckles hard on the table: "Didn't I say I don't approve of you being together?"
As soon as Jin Zhiyan entered the door he was showered with scolding, but he had anticipated this might happen and shielded Luo Rui'an's body.
"Dad, I really do like him."
"Like hell! You've barely known him half a month and you're already deeply in love?!"
Jin Xiangming rolled his eyes, utterly indifferent to Luo Rui'an being present: "I think your brain's filled with paste!"
Jin Zhiyan acted as if he hadn't heard the reprimand, leading Luo Rui'an inside: "Dad, Xiao Luo is really capable."
Before his words even finished, Luo Rui'an shook off his hand: "What's this attitude? Your family doesn't welcome me!"
Luo Rui'an stared at Jin Zhiyan, then immediately turned and left.
"Stupid humans."
"Xiao Luo!"
Jin Zhiyan chased after him, quickly catching up a few steps later, his tone urgent and sincere: "You have to believe me, they will definitely accept you."
"Who cares if they accept me?"
Luo Rui'an immediately rolled his eyes; seeing Jin Zhiyan's expression softened a bit, he awkwardly shook off his hand.
"If they weren't your relatives, I'd have punished them long ago!"
Luo Rui'an and Xi Er, though twins, share few similarities; their red eyes and rainbow feathers are the most obvious differences.
Besides that, Luo Rui'an is forever arrogant, and his brows and eyes are not much like Xi Er's.
"I know… I know, give me a chance to explain; if they knew your ability, they'd surely like you."
Jin Zhiyan cupped his face to coax him gently, his tender eyes showing sorrow: "Just do it for me."
Luo Rui'an pursed his lips: "Fine."
"I'm an angel, yet you humans dare to despise me..."
He was again taken by Jin Zhiyan's hand, this time without resistance, and re-entered the living room; Jin Xiangming had not yet snapped out of his daze.
"Jin Zhiyan! Look, see what attitude he has!"
Jin Xiangming flared up: "I'm an elder, yet he talks to me like this!"
"Dad! Listen to me."
Jin Zhiyan interrupted before Luo Rui'an could lose his temper: "Xiao Luo has the ability to discern jade; he can see whether a stone contains jade or is just worthless rock—how impressive!"
As soon as those words were spoken, the just-flushed-faced Jin Xiangming stared again, also knowing how lucrative the stone‑gambling market is, but direct jade appraisal… impossible!
Seeing his disbelief, Jin Zhiyan bluntly said: "Dad, you don't know—just yesterday I took Xiao Luo to the stone‑gambling market and made a net profit of eighty million."
Luo Rui'an's knowledge of Earth is scattered; Jin Zhiyan had tried to test him, but he doesn't understand prices or money at all, and made no effort to conceal it.
For angels compared to ordinary humans, special abilities are myriad; jade discernment is just something Jin Zhiyan recently discovered, who knows what other useful abilities may arise later.
Jin Xiangming had just finished his outburst when he heard this; momentarily restrained, he couldn't save face, and Fu Suhua promptly stepped in to play the good cop.
"What are you saying? I think this Xiao Luo is a good kid."
Fu Suhua laughed and patted the sofa beside her: "Come, child, have a seat."
Luo Rui'an glanced over, ignoring it.
Jin Zhiyan gave an embarrassed smile, took his hand and sat him down: "See, I told you Dad and Grandma would like you."
Luo Rui'an idly tugged at his lip, boredly playing with his red hair on the sofa, suddenly feeling his palm grow hot.
He frowned in puzzlement, raised his hand to look at his palm; it was Xi Er's Energy Heart Stone sensing and trembling.
Is Xi Er nearby… or just arrived on Earth?
Luo Rui'an raised his eyebrows in surprise; he had thought that worthless brother would die in the transfer.
But it's good he's alive; when the Federal team comes to make arrests, he'll still serve as a pawn.
Luo Rui'an pressed his palms together, suppressing the Energy Heart Stone's agitation; a fierce look flashed across his handsome brows and eyes.
Jin Zhiyan, unaware what the person beside him was thinking, asked Jin Xiangming: "Just now I saw Brother Zhao go out—did you gather any news?"
Jin Xiangming: "Brocade City is keeping a lover in the inner court; I'm puzzled— that madman actually has this taste."
The two chatted casually for a few sentences, while Luo Rui'an, bored to tears, thought: Earth is so big, there's still so much fun to experience—why waste time sitting here?
He was about to lose his temper when he heard a few strange howls.
The living room suddenly fell silent; everyone heard the wolf howl.
Jin Zhiyan was somewhat shocked, "Jin Chen still keeps wolves? Who is he guarding against!"
Wolf?
Luo Rui'an became interested, taking his hand and gently swaying it, "I want to go have a look."
This...
Jin Zhiyan hesitated a bit, after all that place of Jin Chen could be considered a forbidden zone; if that madman suddenly had an episode, they'd be in trouble.
"Going to have a look would be good too." Jin Xiangming glanced at him, meaningfully, "As a nephew bringing his partner back, he should also go show him to his young uncle."
Jin Zhiyan understood his father's meaning, "Okay."
