Xu Jingchen smiled softly, and there was a flash of confusion in his eyes. After a moment of confusion, he closed the passenger door, returned to the driver's seat, and drove away.
Just now, he actually wanted to kiss Zi Beiying, but he felt it was inappropriate. After all, he finally got Zi Beiying to relent and agree to be his girlfriend. If he did anything intimate with her now, it would be too frivolous. .
Sometimes it's shameless to be shameless, but for some things, it's better to be a little more reserved so as not to easily ruin the impression.
At 6:20 in the afternoon, Xu Jingchen took Zi Beiying to the "Jinling Hotel", the private room booked by Xu Jinglin.
By this time, everyone had arrived, but Xu Jingchen and Zi Beiying were the last to arrive, because they had gone a long way back from the Great Wall.
There were not many people in the private room, there were six people in total, three men and three women.
Xu Jinglin and his fiancée, Xu Jinglin’s friend An Yan, and his wife, friend Ji Wenbu and his girlfriend.
Although An Yan and Ji Wenbu were both friends of Xu Jinglin, they had a pretty good relationship with Xu Jingchen. When Xu Jingchen returned to the capital, he was either with his brothers from the Red Flame Team, or with a few of them.
Due to professional reasons, Xu Jingchen actually has very few friends.
Xu Jinglin hangs out in shopping malls and knows a lot of people, but there are only a few really good ones.
At the beginning, Xu Jingchen liked being with them, but he didn't like being with them, because later, when they got together, they were all in pairs, and he was single.
So later on, he still preferred to be with the people from Team Chi Chi Yan.
but! Later, the brothers in the Red Flame Team also became couples one by one, and he no longer liked gathering with them in his free time.
Of course, this is just an emotion, and he has not gone so far as to be pretentious!
But now, he also has a girlfriend, so it doesn't matter which couple they are.
"Jingchen is here, please introduce me."
As soon as Xu Jingchen arrived, several friends greeted him.
"Let me introduce to you, this is my girlfriend, Zi Beiying." After hearing this, Xu Jingchen introduced her to everyone, with obvious pride in his tone.
As the saying goes, people feel refreshed when happy events happen, and Xu Jingchen is like that now. With a girlfriend, there is no need to be too energetic.
Then, Xu Jingchen introduced Zi Beiying: "Let me introduce to you, this is my eldest brother, Xu Jinglin, and my eldest brother's fiancée, Wen Siyi. This is Anyan, Anyan's wife Zhang Keke, this is Ji Wenbu, Ji Wenbu’s girlfriend, Gao Le.”
"Hello, Miss Zi."
After everyone heard this, they all spoke kindly to Zi Beiying.
"Hello," Zi Beiying also responded. When they met for the first time, Zi Beiying still felt a little uncomfortable. After all, she was now Xu Jingchen's girlfriend.
If they were just friends, of course not.
Besides, there is Xu Jingchen’s brother here!
However, Zi Beiying is not an ordinary girl, so even though she feels a little uncomfortable inside, she can still act calm and generous on the surface.
After Xu Jingchen and Zi Beiying sat down, everyone started ordering. Before the food was served, they just chatted casually.
Although Zi Beiying met them for the first time, they did not ignore Zi Beiying. They chatted with Zi Beiying from time to time, and their attitudes were very friendly, regardless of gender.
But since we just met, I couldn't talk about everything, especially about Zi Beiying's family and how Zi Beiying and Xu Jingchen got together, for fear of embarrassing others.
After finishing their meal, everyone went to sit in the clubhouse. The few cultivators who came to monitor Gu Ning had not seen Gu Ning for several days, but they met him first.
The cultivators they met were Yin Shiyi and Dongfang Jinghong.
Because they all know each other, other families have sent people out to monitor Gu Ning, so there is no surprise when they see each other.
And in fact, they have already met each other before, but they don't want to meet each other, so every time they feel the other person's breath, they just avoid it.
But this time, because I saw him face to face, it was difficult to avoid him, so he faced him directly.
When "Uncle Yin" saw Yin Shiyi, Dongfang Jinghong took the initiative to say hello, and his attitude was considered good.
Although their families are antagonistic to each other, with a lot of overt and covert fights, the relationship is not so bad that they would become jealous when they meet, and they are still polite and friendly on the outside.
"So it's Jinghong's nephew!" Yin Shiyi responded with a smile: "Have you eaten?"
"Not yet, ready to eat! Has Uncle Yin eaten?" Dongfang Jinghong asked.
"Not yet, how about we come together?" Yin Shiyi asked.
"Okay" Dongfang Jinghong did not refuse, and then the two of them went to eat.
Although they all knew each other's purpose, they didn't mention it a word because neither of them wanted to say it, so they talked about other things.
"By the way, have you seen my eldest brother?" Yin Shiyi asked.
"Uncle Shi Xun! I didn't see it." Dongfang Jinghong responded, and then he didn't ask any more questions.
After the food was served, the two of them ate.
Because the two of them were sitting in the lobby, there were people around them.
So, while eating, I heard the discussion at the next table.
"Oh my god! Someone found a body in the mountains on Section XX. It seems to have been dead for a long time, but it didn't rot. How amazing!"
"It's quite miraculous, but it's also terrifying. How much hatred is there to make the murderer kill people and dump their bodies."
"Oh! Who knows! But the police said that they have not found the murderer, so I am afraid that this person's death was in vain."
“Just because you can’t find it now doesn’t mean you won’t find it in the future!”
"When the deceased was found, he did not have a mobile phone or ID card, so he did not know the identity of the other party. It has been posted online for three days and no one has claimed it."
Hearing such discussions, Yin Shiyi and Dongfang Jinghong didn't react much. After all, this kind of thing happened quite a lot, with people killing people and dumping their bodies because of various disputes.
"Aren't there any other tokens?"
"Yes, there is a piece of Kuaihetian black jade on the deceased's body, engraved with a dragon, but I don't know if it can prove his identity. After all, there are a lot of this kind of jade nowadays."
However, when Yin Shiyi heard that Hetian black jade and a dragon were engraved on it, he was stunned.
Hotan black jade is engraved with a dragon. Doesn’t Yin Shixun have such a piece of Hotan black jade with a dragon engraved on it
Although there are many jade stones nowadays, with all kinds of carvings on them, this Hetian black jade is indeed extremely rare!
Although he would not believe that something would happen to Yinshi Xun, he had a bad premonition after all, so Yinshiyi had to confirm it.
