Chapter 775 The Grand Elder (2)

“You…” Leng Rumei was about to teach the three guards a lesson when the door of the meeting hall was suddenly opened and the Leng family’s head butler walked out.

“Eldest Miss, the Patriarch invites you in.” The Leng family’s head butler’s cold voice drifted into Leng Rumei’s ears.

“Got it. Thank you, Head Butler. Hmph! Wait for me!” Leng Rumei thanked the Head Butler with a smile on her face. Then she glared fiercely at the three guards and swaggered into the conference room.

In the conference room.

The patriarch of the Leng family, Leng Yimin, was sitting in the main seat. Sitting beside him was a man who looked to be in his early thirties. This man might be handsome and had an extraordinary temperament, but he did not have the slightest smile on his face. Compared to him, Leng Yimin looked slightly older. He might be equally handsome, but his bearing could not be compared to that man. However, the two of them were Mystic Supremacies.

The other elders of the Leng family sat below them.

Leng Rumei saw her father staring at her with a black face after entering the meeting hall. However, it was not like she had never barged into the meeting hall before, so she was really not afraid. Anyway, her father would at most pretend to scold her, and would not do anything to her.

“Rumei, don’t you know that I’m discussing something with the elders? You’re really becoming more and more unruly,” Leng Yimin questioned very sternly. However, the elders sitting there knew very well that the patriarch loved this daughter very much. This was just for them to see, and they naturally wouldn’t harp on such a small matter. “I’m sorry, Father. I really have something important to do, so I was a little anxious,” Leng Rumei said with a face full of regret. She didn’t have the arrogant and domineering appearance from before at all.

“What’s the matter?” Leng Yimin asked curiously, his face looking much better.

“Father, Third Brother actually let outsiders stay in the Plum Garden. I wanted to stop him, but I was scolded by him,” Leng Rumei said aggrievedly, tears flashing in her beautiful eyes.

“Really?” Leng Yimin said doubtfully. Well! He knew his son very well. Wudi shouldn’t be so ignorant of the severity of the matter! Thinking of this, he couldn’t help sneaking a look at the man beside him. However, he was slightly relieved seeing that the man’s expression was still as usual.

“Father, Third Brother gave the Plum Garden to outsiders without the permission of the family. I wonder if he will be punished?” Leng Rumei asked curiously.

“Eldest Miss, even though this was done by the young master, we have to ask the young master before we know what happened, so the patriarch can’t answer this question of yours now,” an elder said.

“Third Elder, you can’t say that. Eldest Miss only asks because she cares about the family!” an old man with a wrinkled face said lightly.

“Does the Tenth Elder mean that we will be convicted of the young master’s crime if we listen to Eldest Miss’s one-sided words? Don’t forget that the Plum Garden isn’t under our jurisdiction.” The Third Elder caressed his beard and said nonchalantly.

“Who said that the Plum Garden isn’t under our jurisdiction? The Plum Garden also belongs to our Leng family. We are duty bound to everything that belongs to the Leng family!” the Tenth Elder said indignantly, obviously implying that the Third Elder didn’t care about the Leng family’s affairs. “Then feel free to slack off. I’ll make it clear first that I don’t care about this matter,” Third Elder said with a cold smile. He looked at the Tenth Elder as if he was watching a joke. Then he stood up, bowed to Leng Yimin, and said, “Patriarch, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first.” With that, he rolled up his sleeves and left the meeting hall.

The other elders present also stood up and left one after another, obviously not wanting to get involved in this muddy water.

“Father, how can the elders be so irresponsible?” Leng Rumei couldn’t help complaining as she watched the elders of the Leng family leave.

“Shut up! How can a junior like you criticize the elders?” Leng Yimin glared at Leng Rumei and said with displeasure. Alas! It seemed like he really spoiled this only daughter of his. She actually developed her temperament that didn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth!

“Rumei, are the people brought by Wudi staying in the Plum Garden now?” the man beside Leng Yimin asked leisurely with an indescribable expression on his face.

“Yes,” Leng Rumei answered carefully, but she was a little nervous because she was very afraid of this man. For some reason, she was just afraid. He might be younger and more handsome than any elder in the Leng family, but she knew very well that it was okay to offend the other elders. Her father would help her settle it, but she absolutely could not offend this mysterious Grand Elder.

“Oh, I really want to see what kind of person he is.” The man’s voice was very soft, but everyone present heard it very clearly.

“Supreme Elder, Rumei is willing to lead the way,” Leng Rumei volunteered. Wouldn’t she be overjoyed if she could get the Supreme Elder to deal with those people? She couldn’t help being a little smug thinking of this!

“Okay, Ru Mei, lead the way!” The man stood up and said to everyone, “You don’t have to follow.”

After hearing this, Leng Yimin, the Tenth Elder, and the others, who had just stood up, had to sit down again. Leng Yimin and the remaining elders left the meeting hall after the man left with Leng Rumei…

At the same time, Leng Wudi had already left the back mountain. Then he turned around to see his grandfather. His grandfather had passed the position of the patriarch to his father two years ago, but his grandfather’s prestige in the family was still not something that his father could replace.

Ever since his grandfather left the heavy responsibility of being the patriarch, he chose a relatively small side yard for cultivation. Moreover, no one dared to disturb his grandfather’s cultivation except for him and a few elders who were on good terms with his grandfather.

Leng Wudi arrived at the side yard. He heard his grandfather’s hearty laughter as soon as he walked in. He couldn’t help taking a few steps forward and came in front of his grandfather with a light smile. “Grandpa, what’s the matter?”

“Haha! You’re going to be unlucky.” Leng Jingmu laughed happily. “Uh! Grandpa, your precious grandson is going to be unlucky. Are you that happy?” Leng Wudi pretended to be sad and then greeted the Third Elder, who was sitting opposite his grandfather.
