Xin Changjiang and Zhu Hongqin chatted with Bai Jing, trying not to hide their joy. Especially Zhu Hongqin, who held Bai Jing's hand tightly, talked and laughed, and was so affectionate that she could hardly be called a daughter-in-law. Just think about it, which parent doesn't want to have a daughter-in-law like Bai Jing? She is beautiful, sexy, and has extraordinary temperament. The most important thing is that she has ability. At such a young age, she is the CEO of a technology company with a net worth of hundreds of millions! Marrying her is almost equivalent to marrying New World Technology Company.
Xin Changjiang said to Li Xiaofeng, "Xiaofeng, where is your father?"
Li Xiaofeng said: "My father made an appointment with a very important client today to discuss matters, but he gave me full authority to handle the investment in New World Technology Company, so we don't have to wait for my father to come. I will talk about it the same way."
Xin Changjiang said with a smile: "It's true that a tiger father has no dog son. You and our family's feather are both the best men in the world, and the future belongs to you."
This sentence is actually said to Bai Jing, if you marry my son, you will marry the best man in the world.
Li Xiaofeng said politely, "My uncle has praised me, but I don't dare to compare with Zhiyu. He has been my role model since childhood."
Xin Changjiang smiled and finally moved his eyes to Ning Tao.
Ning Tao was dressed in ordinary clothes, carrying a medicine box and a folding fan on his waist. To be honest, this image is a bit strange. Compared with Xin Zhiyu and Li Xiaofeng, the nose is really not a nose, and the eyes are not eyes.
At this time, Zhu Hongqin finally let go of Bai Jing's hand, temporarily ending the hot "mother-in-law and daughter-in-law" chat.
Xin Changjiang said: "Ah Jing, this is your bodyguard. I'll ask the housekeeper to entertain him later."
Bai Jing pursed her lips and smiled, "Uncle Ding, I can't afford such a bodyguard. This is Dr. Ning Taoning. He has amazing medical skills. He is the living Hua Tuo in the world today."
"Doctor?" Xin Changjiang's reaction was a bit strange. No matter how he looked at Ning Tao, he didn't look like a doctor, let alone a living Hua Tuo. If such young people are all living Hua Tuo, then everyone in the pet hospital will be a living Hua Tuo.
"Ajing, is this Dr. Ning your friend?" Zhu Hongqin also asked.
Before Bai Jing could say anything, Xin Zhiyu said, "Mom, this Dr. Ning is a friend of Qing Zhui, and I invited him here."
Zhu Hongqin said: "So that's it, then..." She glanced at Xin Changjiang, as if asking for his opinion.
Xin Changjiang said calmly: "Then let's sit at the same table."
This reaction was obviously reluctant, but because of the face of his son and Bai Jing, he reluctantly agreed to let Ning Tao sit at the same table with him.
In the Chinese world, dinner parties have a unique culture, and people of different status cannot sit at the same table to eat. And even if you are sitting at a table, there is still a lot of emphasis on how to sit and how to drink. With Xin Changjiang's status, if it weren't for the sake of his son and Bai Jing, it would be impossible for him to sit at the same table with Ning Tao for dinner.
Ning Tao said calmly: "Mr. Xin, I'd better sit at the same table with the housekeeper here. I don't understand your business discussions."
"Okay, I'll ask the butler to entertain you later." Xin Changjiang said, he wished Ning Tao would say it himself.
Bai Jing looked at Ning Tao with curious eyes, as if she was guessing what Ning Tao was thinking.
Ning Tao actually didn't have any other thoughts. He came here just for the sake of Bai Jing and Qing Zhui. If not for this reason, he would not be willing to come to Ronghua Mansion even if he was invited to Ronghua Mansion with an eight-carriage sedan. Xin Changjiang saw that he was a clinic doctor and had a scornful attitude. Although he didn't care, he wouldn't feel comfortable sitting at the same table with someone like Xin Changjiang for dinner. He might as well stay away, out of sight and out of mind.
Qing Zhui said: "Then I will follow you..."
Ning Tao interrupted Qing Zhui, "Be obedient."
Qing Zhui obeyed and closed his mouth.
A trace of jealousy flashed in Li Xiaofeng's eyes. Why couldn't he understand that a clinic doctor, He Dehe, could make a beautiful woman like Qing Zhui so obedient
Entering the hall, the decoration and furniture inside are all antique, as if you have entered the hall of a high official of the imperial court.
More guests arrived one after another, most of them relatives and friends of the Xin family. These people were probably here to see the future daughter-in-law of the Xin family. There are also some important figures in the Hongtu Group, who are here to discuss business with Bai Jing. When there are more people, the atmosphere becomes lively.
Ning Tao didn't join in the fun and just found a seat to sit down.
Qing Zhui originally wanted to follow Ning Tao, but Bai Jing asked her to stay. Li Xiaofeng "snapped in" and pestered her to talk, trying his best to please her. But he had an absent-minded attitude, his eyes always looking towards Ning Tao intentionally or unintentionally.
Ning Tao's eyes were on Bai Jing. Bai Jing's various reactions along the way made him feel abnormal, and he became more and more suspicious that Bai Jing had some ulterior purpose in contacting the Xin family.
Bai Jing and Zhu Hongqin were chatting and laughing, and looked very affectionate. It really looked like a "mother-in-law and daughter-in-law" living in harmony.
Ning Tao's eyes fell on Zhu Hongqin, and he suddenly remembered something, and said secretly in his heart: "No, Zhu Hongqin, Zhu Hongqin... There is only one word difference between her name and Zhu Hongyu. Could it be that she is the daughter of Prince Zhu San?" What does scarlet jade have to do with it?”
Then, he thought of the unknown figure, Bai Sheng.
Assuming that Bai Jing followed Bai Sheng's instructions to contact the Xin family, does Bai Sheng and her want the Xin family's money? I'm afraid not!
Just after such thinking and analysis, Ning Tao couldn't help but think of the skull fragment with the recipe for Xun Zu Dan written on it. He couldn't help but feel excited. If the Xin family had other skull fragments of Zhu Hongyu, he would have a chance to get the complete prescription of Xunzu Dan!
Afterwards, Ning Tao calmly awakened the state of sight and hearing in his eyes and nose, and a large innate aura suddenly came into his sight. Everyone's innate aura was different. If they were squeezed into one space, he would It's like being in a thick pool of dye. There was also smell. The smells emitted by different people and different objects flooded into his nasal cavity, leaving nothing behind.
However, after some "detection investigation", he did not catch the smell of vermilion skulls, nor did he see any other evil spirits except Bai Jing and Qing Zhui. However, he just gave it a try and did not give up. If the Xin family really had a scarlet jade skull, it must have been hidden in a secret room and a safe. How could he smell it so easily
Ning Tao ended the state of watching and hearing, and just quietly observed Zhu Hongqin.
Everything about Zhu Hongqin is normal, she just looks like a pampered woman.
Bai Jing and Qing Zhui naturally became the focus of the audience. Many people were talking about them. Some even boldly guessed when Xin Zhiyu and Bai Jing's wedding would be held. They were very precise. As for Qing Zhui, many people think that she is Li Xiaofeng's girlfriend, and she and Li Xiaofeng are a talented and beautiful couple.
Ning Tao wanted to laugh when he heard these comments.
When the banquet started, Bai Jing and Qing Zhui sat together. Next to the two sisters were naturally Xin Zhiyu and Li Xiaofeng. Bai Jing responded with ease, but Qing Zhui seemed very uncomfortable, and still glanced at Ning Tao from time to time.
Ning Tao sat at a table with a few unknown people. He didn't bother to get to know these people, so he just ate something and left the banquet hall.
After going out, Ning Tao wandered around the Ronghua Mansion, using his powers of sight and hearing to look for the scarlet jade skull fragments that he suspected might exist.
Unknowingly, Ning Tao came to an ancient building. The door was locked. There was a plaque on the door that read "Xin Clan Ancestral Hall". In addition to this plaque, this ancestral hall is also a real ancient building. The bricks and tiles are ancient relics that are hundreds of years old. It seems that they were bought from somewhere and then moved here and rebuilt.
Ning Tao's nose moved, but he didn't smell any unusual smell. But he was still very curious, would the Xin family's clan ancestral hall enshrine any spiritual tablets of people related to Zhu Hongyu? Driven by this curiosity, he walked towards the locked door.
Suddenly, a sense of crisis hit him, it felt like someone was following him with a knife!
Ning Tao turned around fiercely and looked in one direction.
It was a mountain forest behind Ronghua Mansion, with dense trees. A tree swayed for a moment, but soon became still. Apart from this little movement, there was no movement at all, no innate aura released by life, and no strong demonic energy. What's even stranger is that the sense of crisis that suddenly appeared just now has disappeared, as if it was just an accidental misunderstanding.
"Mr. Ning, so you are here." A voice came.
Ning Tao looked around and saw a man in a tuxedo walking towards him. That was the housekeeper of the Xin family. He was the one who set the table for the banquet, so I recognized him, but I didn't know his name.
The housekeeper of the Xin family stopped in front of Ning Tao and said politely: "Doctor Ning, my young master invites you to have tea at Tingyin Tower."
Ning Tao nodded, "Okay, please lead the way."
The housekeeper of the Xin family walked forward to lead the way, and Ning Tao followed slowly, pulling out an indestructible fan in one hand and fanning gently.
Was that sudden sense of crisis just an illusion
He didn't think so, he would rather believe it was true.
But just after he left with the housekeeper of Xin Mansion, the tree swayed slightly again...
The housekeeper of the Xin family led Ning Tao to the Tingyin Building, which was a small building built next to a pond with an antique look. If it were placed in ancient times, it would probably be the embroidery shop of a certain Miss Qian Jin.
Several girls in palace costumes in the Tingyin Building were performing kung fu tea for the guests. Bai Jing and Qing Zhui were sitting at a tea table. Not only were Xin Zhiyu and Li Xiaofeng beside them, there were also several young people who came over at some unknown time. There are men and women. Those young people are all well-dressed and have extraordinary temperament. Even if they cannot compare with Xin Zhiyu and Li Xiaofeng, they are not far behind.
"Mr. Ning, this is it. I won't take you in. You can go in by yourself." The housekeeper of the Xin family said.
Ning Tao nodded and walked over.
"Brother Feng, isn't that the boy you're talking about?" A young man said this when he saw Ning Tao.
"Oh, you are actually playing with a folding fan. You are such an elegant person." A girl said.
