Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife Chapter 1311: Where’s the Bomb? (5)

Anthony froze for a mont when he heard her words. "My sister?"

"Yes."

Anthony wrinkled his nose. "Did my sister cause trouble outside again?"

It was obvious this teenage boy knew his sister’s situation very well.

"She does this all the ti." Anthony spread his hands to show he was already used to it, totally accustod, nothing surprising about it. He said, "Every ti sothing happens, Paul has to co out and clean up the ss for her. By the way, where’s Paul? Isn’t he supposed to be with her?"

On this point, Gu Nuan had no choice but to tell him, "That Paul you’re talking about is probably being held at the police station right now."

"Huh?" Anthony was surprised. "Paul’s in jail? Why?"

"He fired a gun and wounded your third aunt."

Anthony’s face went blank; he muttered, "No way."

Gu Nuan had no idea how much he actually knew. One thing that struck her as very strange was that this Anthony—the fourth Xiao son’s kid, her husband’s nephew—was said to have t the Xiao Family only a handful of tis. Usually, his father Zhu Minxuan kept him locked up at ho, not allowed out. Even the Xiao Family rarely got a chance to see this grandson.

But now, it seed Anthony himself wasn’t all that unfamiliar with the Xiao Family’s situation. He knew about Xiao Shuju, he knew Xiaobai and little Xiaobai—in other words, he knew his uncle Xiao Yebai had gotten married and had kids.

Anthony stood up and walked over to the sofa to sit down. Zang Xiaolian poured him a glass of water; he said thanks, cradling the cup in his hands, his brows slightly furrowed on both sides as if thinking sothing over.

When he looked up and saw Gu Nuan’s face, he asked, "Are you my aunt?"

"Yes."

"I heard you’re pretty badass."

The implication of that ran deep. Gu Nuan’s lips quirked. "Who’d you hear that from?"

Anthony curled his lip. "No idea."

The second Monkey scrambled up next to him and hissed, "You know my mom’s badass but won’t say who told you? Careful or my mom will dig it out and make you suffer."

Anthony’s mouth kept stretching and stretching, and then—pfft—he finally couldn’t hold it in and burst out laughing again.

At the door, the approaching figure heard the laughter inside the room and looked surprised.

Zang Xiaolian heard footsteps and had already gone to open the door. Seeing Xiao Yebai, she called, "Second Brother, he’s here."

Zhu Jiayin entered the room first. When she saw her brother rolling around on the sofa laughing, she froze and asked, "What are you doing here, Anthony?"

"Why can’t I be here?" Anthony sat up and casually brushed his fringe aside. "Why don’t you say what you’re doing here? I heard this ti you got Paul thrown in jail."

Zhu Jiayin waved a hand, more anxious about sothing else. "Does Dad know you’re here?"

"Of course not."

"You snuck out on your own?"

"Yeah."

"Do you know what you’ve done? If you get kidnapped—"

"I’m this smart, how would I get kidnapped?"

The others watched the siblings talk and got the feeling they were like two different people. Usually, Zhu Jiayin always wore a smiling face, but facing her brother now, her expression was all anxiety and displeasure. As for Anthony, who could always laugh when playing with the two Monkeys, when he faced his sister his handso teenage face turned dark and stormy, with not a trace of cheer.

The brother and sister seed to do nothing but accuse each other from start to finish; what followed was the sound of both of them breathing heavily, barely holding it together.

"Listen to , Anthony!" Zhu Jiayin jabbed a finger right at her brother’s nose. "You’re going to get people killed acting like this!"
