NovelApp"Master? Why didn't he tell us he's coming back?" Xyla Quest narrowed her eyes and stared at the old man in the back seat of the car. Stanley Batton, who had now seen the man, immediately got out of his car.
Xyla followed along and hopped off the car excitedly.
Ron Batton slowly got out of his car too. He was wearing a traditional white tai chi outfit, looking benevolent yet refreshed.
"Grandpa, what are you doing here? Why didn't you inform us in advance?" Stanley asked.
Ron gazed at Xyla and smiled. "I missed you guys so much. That's why I'm here." "Master, you should've told us earlier. We could've gone to the airport and picked you up." As Xyla spoke, she skipped toward Ron and hugged his arm intimately. Ron grinned at Xyla dotingly and patted the back of her hand. "I wanted to surprise you, my dear. Are you guys going out now?" Xyla nodded. "Well, I was going to work, but now that you're back, I think I'm changing my mind." The smile on Ron's face widened, his fondness for Xyla overflowing in his eyes. "How can you abandon your work? Just get going, and I'll see you at night, hmm?" "No... I want to accompany you," Xyla pleaded. To Xyla, the old man in front of her was her master, as well as her grandfather.
"Silly girl..." Ron chuckled helplessly. "I haven't been to the company for a very long time. I'm planning to visit the company with Stan. Go to work, Xyla. Stan will look after me." Hearing that Ron had his plan today, Xyla stopped pestering him and nodded obediently. "Alright then." "Xyla, tell Grandpa. Did Stan bully you recently?" Ron asked.

"Really? Didn't he do anything that triggers you?" Ron pursued.
"Nah, there's no such thing." Xyla faintly smiled.
Ron cast a skeptical look at Stanley. "That's good... Tellif he dares to mistreat you. I'll definitely break his leg." The corner of Stanley's soft lips curved up into a shallow arc. His doting eyes were locked upon Xyla.
"Alright, Stan, taketo the company. By the way, I'm going to stay at your house for the next two days. Xyla, can you please show my driver the way? He's going to move my luggage later." "Sure!" Xyla was overjoyed.
Subsequently, Stanley helped Ron into the car.
Xyla remained rooted to the spot.
She watched their car leave the house and slowly disappear from her line of sight. Only then was she willing to turn away from them and take Ron's driver into the house.
In the black Bentley Arnage, Ron and Stanley were both wearing a worried frown.
"Pull over here," said Ron.
Stanley decelerated and stopped the car by the roadside.
"Giveyour hand," Ron said again.

"I'm not leaving Atlantis anytsoon. I'll stay at your house for these two days. Finda house after that. I'move over. It's best to be by the sea. I love the sea and fresh air," Ron blurted. "Okay." "Sigh..." Ron let out a deep sigh and did not speak again.
Stanley kept his mouth shut too. The car was as quiet as the grave.
Silence accompanied the car all the way downtown. Finally, it pulled up in el front of al traffic light.
Ron found himself gazing out of the window and observing the blooming roses. He could not help exclaiming, "It feels great to see Atlantis being surrounded by a sea of roses." "Yes." Stanley's reply was brief.
