Chapter 1018 - House Kang's Thoughts on House Xiao

"Absurd! Merge? Would we be House Kang or House Xiao then?" Miracle Doctor Kang waved his hand, interrupting his son impatiently, "Alright, enough! Zhaolong, give me your thoughts!"

"Yes, grandpa!" Zhaolong said respectfully, "Grandpa, what second uncle said does make sense as well, but what we should do isn't to merge, but to replace them! Now that they've fallen, we need to let them fall even more! Only when it's a solid fact that they'll be removed from the n.o.ble houses will we have the potential to rise up! Looking at the current non-n.o.ble houses right now, us House Kang is the one with the most potential!"

"Oh? Not bad!" Miracle Doctor Kang started laughing, "Hahaha! Zhaolong's right! House Xiao has fallen… We'll have to push them down even more! The more they fall, the more chance we have! Well said, well said! Brilliant ideea!"

"You flatter me, grandpa!" Zhaolong said humbly with a smile.

Cuipu frowned. His words didn't make sense for s.h.i.+t! Zhaolong only said to give him some face, he knew himself that his words were bulls.h.i.+t! He had no strategy or plans.

"Zhaoming? What about you, what do you think?" Miracle Doctor Kang looked at Zhaoming.

"Grandpa, big brother is right, but I think that we shouldn't burn the bridge just yet," Zhaoming felt that his father had just lost face, and so, as a son, he needed to make a comeback. He wanted to make a good impression on his grandpa, too, so he'd been thinking deeply for a long time before saying this.

"Oh? Tell me, why shouldn't we?" Zhaoming's words did have value to Miracle Doctor Kang. He may just be a tyrant rich kid, but he was much more useful than his father Cuipu!

"Grandpa, there's a saying that even dried fish can turn things around one day!" Zhaoming said, "House Xiao may have fallen now, but they're still a n.o.ble house, and we can't know for sure what connections they have- what if they were to rise again? We can't be too sure!"

"Rise again?" Miracle Doctor Kang shook his head. From his view, House Xiao was done for- it was impossible for them to turn things around. But, Zhaoming did do a lot for House Kang recently, and so he didn't scold him, "Then what do you think we should do?"

"I think that the marriage between House Xiao can't be broken, except that it shouldn't be brother's marriage!" Zhaoming smiled embara.s.sedly at this point, "We can turn brother's marriage onto me, and I'll step down and accept that pretty Xiao girl. I'm just a tyrant young master, after all, so if House Xiao still falls, I'll can kick her out of the family without consequence, since that's my reputation from the start! I play with women, so other people wouldn't be able to say anything! But brother? He can't do that! We'll be stuck in a marriage with them even after they fall!"

Miracle Doctor Kang seemed to be in thought after hearing that. Zhaolong, on the other hand, started laughing, "Brother, you have your eye on w.a.n.g Xinyan? There's plenty of girls everywhere, no matter what, that's your sis-in-law. You shouldn't be thinking about things like that!"

Kang Zhaoming clearly had that intention in mind, so he blushed when exposed. He tried to explain, "I'm doing it for the good of House Kang!"

"We'll do it according to Zhaolong's method," Miracle Doctor Kang said after Zhaolong spoke, not commenting on Zhaoming's idea any further, "Zhaoming, Zhaolong's right- you shouldn't put too much focus on women if you want to do great things."

"Yes, grandpa…" Zhaoming actually did think it was a viable plan! Of course, getting Xinyan would be great, but what if House Xiao wasn't removed from the n.o.ble families?

After all, House Yu had suffered as well- what if they wanted good karma, and let House Xiao go for a while first? Or what if they treated House Xiao as the enenmy of an enemy? House Xiao still had value!

But Zhaoming knew that nothing he said would be useful anymore, since his grandpa thought that he just wanted to play with Xinyan. Well, he did, of course.

Now that House Kang had decided on how they were going to treat House Xiao, there was nothing that could change it.

Guifeng walked out the house himself, walking towards the Xiao brothers.

The two had been waiting outside for a long time, and it had been thirty minutes since the servant saw them. It started to frustrate the brothers.

"Little brother, do you think House Kang would refuse us? f.u.c.k, such shallow people! They tried their d.a.m.ned hardest to stick to us when we were strong, and now that something's happened, this is how they treat us?" Xiao Ji ill-tempered, and so he started cussing, "How long has it been, thirty minutes? Where the h.e.l.l is everyone, what the f.u.c.k is House Kang doing?!"

"…" Xiao Ben looked at his raging brother and sighed, "Brother, calm down! It's more than just something that's happened, Uncle Pi's a vegetable now, and we've lost our only pillar! We still have a huge debt due to that brat Lin Yi. We have way too much trouble surrounding us, and it's only normal that they wouldn't want to meet us!"

"Normal? Shameless and shallow, I'd say?" Xiao Ji hmphed, "What the h.e.l.l."

"Brother, someone's here! Enough!" Xiao Ben's eyes were sharp- he saw the door opened, and quickly told Xiao Ji to stop before he was heard.

Xiao Ji shut up immediately- he only wanted to curse at them to relieve some anger, but now that they were out he didn't dare. After all, they were here to beg them, not the other way around!

But the person who came out, surprising the two brothers, was not Mirarcle Doctor Kang, but his eldest son Kang Guifeng, the father of Zhaolong! Xiao Ben relaxed. Sending such a big name to greet them… Perhaps there was hope.

With the thought, he smiled and moved forward, "Big brother Kang, why've you come out yourself? You didn't have to!"

Xiao Ji blinked as well, not expecting Kang Guifeng to greet them hismelf. His rage lessened significantly, "Big brother Kang!"

"May I know what business you two, Xiao brothers, have with House Kang?" Guifeng's face, however, wasn't friendly at all. He spoke in a cold voice, as if they weren't close at all!
