After the Chens got the news, the City Lord's Mansion also knew about it, because the three people of the Royal Court did not deliberately hide it when they investigated it. It seemed that they intended to spread the news.
When Huang Xiaoyong learned about it, he was so scared that his face turned pale and he hid in the room with cold sweat all over his body.
It was a fact that Samuel had killed the three people from the Royal Court. If the truth was really found out, the result could be imagined.
If he were to oppose the Royal Court within the boundaries of the Royal Court, he would only end up dead.
Huang Xiaoyong now had a way to protect himself, which was to expose Samuel's evil deeds. But he couldn't do that. After all, Samuel was his master. If he wanted to break through the realm, he had to rely on Samuel. Otherwise, his realm would stay in the Five-lamp Realm for the rest of his life.
At this time, Huang Xiaoyong was like a headless fly and didn’t know what to do.
He was afraid that he would be exposed and get implicated. He was also afraid that he would lose his master.
"Xiaoyong, what are you doing hiding in your room? Open the door quickly. Father has something to tell you." Huang Houyi came to the door and said as he looked inside.
"I'm not feeling well. I’m already resting.
Let's talk tomorrow if there's anything else. " If Huang Xiaoying's frantic appearance was seen by Huang Houyi, he would surely reveal a flaw. Thus, he could only avoid seeing Huang Xiaoying.
"You brat, what kind of joke are you making with me? You're now a Five-Lamp Realm expert, how could you fall sick?
Hurry and open the door, or else I'll kick the door open." Huang Houyi said unhappily.
It was common for ordinary people to get sick, but if they had the strength of the Second Lamp Realm, which was almost like a anti-virus. How could they get sick?
Huang Xiaoyong was shocked. He knew what kind of person his father was. What he said was definitely not a joke. If he wanted to kick the door, he would definitely end up kicking it.
"I have really gone to bed. Let's talk about it tomorrow," Huang Xiaoyong said.
Peng!
The moment Huang Xiaoyong's voice fell, the door was kicked open by Huang Houyi. He acted swiftly without any hesitation.
"You brat, don't tell me you've hidden someone in the room? " Huang Houyi's gaze started searching in all directions after entering the room.
"Father, what are you talking about? How can I hide people in my room?" Huang Xiaoyong said.
Huang Houyi said, "You've brought quite a few maids back to your room. I remember you doing this at the age of ten, haven't you?"
Huang Xiaoyong looked embarrassed. When he was a child, he slept with his maid, which was known to everyone in the City Lord's Mansion. However, at that time, Huang Xiaoyong had no evil thoughts, but his hands would be restless.
"I lost my mother since I was a child. I was looking for a mother's love." Huang Xiaoyong said helplessly.
Huang Xiaoyong's mother passed away during childbirth, so Huang Xiaoyong was indeed lacking in maternal love. This was something Huang Houyi couldn't make up for no matter how hard he tried to make up for.
"Let's cut the crap. I'm here to talk business, " Huang Houyi said.
"Rascal, why are you pretending to be ill? Is it because you don't dare to meet me?" Huang Houyi asked.
"No, of course not. You're not a man-eating tiger. Why wouldn't I dare to meet you? " Huang Xiaoyong said, his eyes flickering.
When Huang Houyi saw this, he was even more certain that Huang Xiaoyong was hiding something from him.
"Ever since you were young, your eyeballs will shift as long as you lie. This has never changed. Do you dare to say that there's nothing that you’re hiding from me?" Huang Houyi snapped.
Lying was Huang Xiaoyong's specialty. He had been used to this kind of thing since he was a child. Lying to the servants in his family, lying to friends outside, and even teasing passers-by were Huang Xiaoyong’s specialty. But only in front of Huang Houyi, Huang Xiaoyong could not calmly lie, and he always inadvertently showed his guilty actions.
But even if Huang Houyi knew that he was lying, Huang Xiaoying didn’t dare to tell him the truth. If he knew that Samuel killed the three people from the Royal Court last time, he would probably be scared to death. If he impulsively did something he shouldn't do, he would be finished.
"Father, believe me. It's best if you don't know about this matter. It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that I can't." Huang Xiaoyong could only say this; otherwise Huang Houyi would continue to pursue the matter.
"I'm your father. Is there anything I can't know?" Huang Houyi said sternly.
Huang Xiaoyong feebly lowered his head and said, "What I've hidden has something to do with my master, and he warned me that I can't tell anyone. Do you want to ruin my future?"
When he heard that it had something to do with Samuel, Huang Houyi's attitude immediately softened a little. This was someone who could change the fate of the Huang family. Moreover, Samuel occupied most of the elements in how high Huang Xiaoyong’s position in the Royal Court would be in the future. Huang Houyi didn't dare to easily interfere in his affairs.
"If you had said that earlier, would I have asked you that?" Huang Houyi said with a face full of blame.
Huang Xiaoyong finally heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Huang Houyi didn't seem to want to continue pursuing the matter.
