As soon as the old liar left, the leader floated back on his back and gave me a thumbs up: "Dad, you are so cruel and awesome. I just went to the surveillance room and deleted the surveillance video, which cannot be recovered."
"Well, it doesn't matter whether you delete it or not. Besides, I want to ask you something." Then, I asked him to help monitor Xia Chaoran's parents. The leader said, Dad, you are too polite, this is a trivial matter, just arrange a few younger brothers to go there.
After that... I relied on my relationship with the police to settle Xia Chaoran's matter. When I was on a mission last time, Feng Nianke introduced me to a high-level police officer, and Huan Yuge has many contacts with the high-level police, so I called the high-level officer and he told me that nothing was wrong. processed.
After dealing with these matters, Xiaohui sent me to the train station. In the waiting hall, I said to Xiaohui: "Don't think about the past. If you have any difficulties in the future, just call me."
Xiaohui nodded: "I'm fine."
Seeing that Xiaohui was still depressed, I didn't say anything...
Two days later, the capital.
The fox demon tugged on my clothes playfully: "I want to eat that cotton candy."
After buying her a cotton candy, I stood at the gate of the train station and called Xu Xiaoling. The phone rang a few times, and then there was a prompt: "The number you dialed cannot be connected."
hung up? what happened? The phone was confiscated again
Just as I was frowning secretly, a message came to my mobile phone, it was from Xu Xiaoling. The general content of the message was that she is inconvenient to answer the phone now, please call me later.
So the fox demon and I sat on the steps of the train station and waited. The fox demon ate the ice cream until his face was dirty. After eating, he put the ice cream box in front of him. I asked, "What are you doing?" Well?"
A "disabled" beggar in the distance of the fox demon said: "I also want to be like him, earn some money and buy a box of ice cream."
I rolled my eyes and thought to myself, aren't you stealing other people's business? Don't you have money? But since she likes to play, I didn't stop her. I sat on the steps and waited for Xu Xiaoling to call me back.
In the end, the wait lasted three hours, and there was only two yuan in the ice cream box. Look at the 'disabled person' three hours ago. After asking for a few hundred dollars, he crawled to a corner, stood up, patted his ass and left... The fox demon and I were stunned for a few seconds before we recovered, and then The fox demon also said that he was going to pretend to be a disabled person, but I stopped him.
That's right, although the clothes worn by Fox Demon and I are not of any brand, they are clean and tidy. It is not a beggar at first glance. It is no wonder that we can ask for money for this outfit.
The fox demon picked up the ice cream box, put it in front of me, and asked cutely: "Brother Xiaolong, can I sell ice cream for two dollars?"
I took out a fifteen-dollar bill and put it in the box: "That's enough for now."
"Then go buy it for me." The fox put the money back into my hand.
Just when I was about to talk, my phone rang suddenly. I took it out and saw that Xu Xiaoling finally called: "Xiaolong, where are you?"
"Jingrou and I are at the train station, how about you? What were you doing just now?"
"I was having a family meeting just now. It's not convenient for me to answer the phone. I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long."
"It's okay." I said with a smile.
"Well, then you wait for me at the station, and I will send a car to pick you up now."
…
An hour later, the fox demon and I arrived at Xu's house, and Xu Xiaoling was waiting for me at the door. The fox demon and I got out of the car and walked into the yard with Xu Xiaoling. I asked, "Ningrou, what does uncle mean?"
Xu Xiaoling shook his head slightly: "This time my father asked me to come back, not because of you, but because of another matter."
another thing? I'm sure that Patriarch Xu must have known about my lung failure a long time ago, but he didn't say anything about it when he called Xu Xiaoling back this time. Why? In my opinion, there are two reasons. First, a major event happened to the Xu family. As the eldest daughter of the direct line, Xu Xiaoling must come back. The matter with me must be more important. Second, Xu Xiaoling didn't tell me the truth. Maybe Patriarch Xu didn't agree with her being with me, but she was afraid that I would be under too much pressure, so she lied to me.
I smiled and stroked her hair: "Ning Rou, it seems that that matter is very important, can you tell me? Maybe I can help. I'm getting married soon, you have to ask me to be my father-in-law Show it well in front of you."
Xu Xiaoling said worriedly: "The once-in-ten-year martial arts meeting of the Eight Great Families is about to begin. In fact, the eight families are very complicated, and there are often business frictions, but they are just small things. It was jointly established by the family. Before the martial arts competition begins, each family has to hand in two treasures, which can be demon pills, or a space ring with a cubic meter of internal space. These rewards will be awarded to the top three people in the competition. That is Said, if the top three belong to the same family, then that family will make a fortune. And our Xu family has not won the top three for three consecutive times, so this time the family pays great attention and hopes to get the top three , otherwise, if things go on like this, the family will have few treasures to take out, and if there are no treasures, they will be kicked out of the eight major families."
"Oh? So serious? But the Zhang family, which is also one of the eight major families, doesn't seem to have very good martial arts skills. Isn't he not as good as your family?"
Xu Xiaoling shook his head: "It's different, Xiaolong, you don't know, the Zhang family is a family of genius doctors and has a wide network of contacts. When some big shots go to seek medical treatment, the Zhang family will ask to choose a treasure from the other party's house, and It is very likely that treasures such as demon pills are hidden in the homes of high-ranking officials. Besides, there is a cultivator in the Zhang family, and there are many treasures such as interspatial rings."
The corners of my eyes twitched twice: "Cultivator? Don't talk about it. Ning Rou, what did your father say this time?"
"There was a discussion just now, but there was still no satisfactory result."
"Ning Rou, take me to see your father." I said.
Xu Xiaoling looked at me in surprise: "Xiaolong, what do you want to do?"
"It's nothing, I just want to talk to him." I smiled and said, "Talk about this martial arts competition."
Xu Xiaoling was still worried. I knew that Patriarch Xu must have said something to her. She was a little worried that Patriarch Xu would shut me down later. So I comforted: "Ning Rou, trust me, I know what to do. Oh, yes, there is good news, my terminal illness, Master has solved it for me, and we can live together forever in the future."
"Really?" The worries on Xu Xiaoling's face were swept away, and he asked in surprise.
I nodded: "Okay, take me to see him."
Xu Xiaoling held my arm in one hand, and led the cute fox demon in the other hand, all the way to Patriarch Xu's villa.
Master Xu was sitting on a chair by the door, drinking tea and reading a book. He had heard our footsteps a long time ago, but he never looked up. Knowing that Xu Xiaoling said: "Dad, Xiaolong brought his sister to see you."
Only then did Patriarch Xu put down his book, looked up and said, "Xiaolong is here, and Yujia, you must be tired from the long journey, Ningrou, you go and rest first. I will let the kitchen make a banquet later, when the time comes we Let's talk again."
Patriarch Xu's attitude was not very good, it was quite different from last time, just as Xu Xiaoling was about to speak, I touched her lightly to stop her words, then smiled and said: "Uncle, I just heard Ningrou say Regarding the martial arts competition of the eight major families, I also know that my uncle really wants the Xu family to get the top three spots, maybe I can help."
Master Xu put the book on the table and looked at me seriously: "According to the news I got, you have already suffered from terminal illness, lung failure, and can't do strenuous exercise. How can you help me?"
I still kept smiling: "Uncle, you underestimate me. That little illness is not worth mentioning. If you want a place, I assure you, I dare not say the first place, but I am sure about the top three." .”
"This is not a child's play. It's not that if you promise, you will definitely get the quota."
"How about this uncle, I heard that before the competition, each of the eight major families will hand in two treasures as rewards for the winners. These two treasures can be a one-cubic-meter space ring or a demon pill. I am willing to provide If I lose the two demon pills, these two demon pills will belong to me. If I win, the two demon pills will be returned to me. As for the other rewards, they will all go to uncle, how about it?"
Patriarch Xu stood up, with a smile on his face: "This is a sure-fire deal, but if Xiaolong doesn't say that, it would be too outlandish. We are all a family, so why should we divide them so clearly?"
It is said that a woman can change her face faster than turning a book, why do I think Patriarch Xu can change her face faster than a woman...
I cupped my hands and said, "Uncle taught me very well."
At this moment, Xiaolei walked over from a distance, and when he saw me, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a sneer. It seems that he also knows about my lung failure. When he got closer, he said to Patriarch Xu: "Uncle, I have already made up my mind. Due to the regulations of the competition, the contestants must be members of the family, so I think, let Sister Ning Rou marry my second senior brother, and then let the second senior brother represent The Xu family..."
"Shut up!" Patriarch Xu shouted: "You bastard! Ning Rou and Xiaolong are already engaged, and the wedding is about to be held, if you dare to talk nonsense, the family law will serve you!"
Xiaolei opened his mouth in surprise, as if he didn't understand why his uncle's attitude changed so quickly, much beyond his expectation. Xiaolei turned his head to look at me, I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Little brother, are you busy? You have nothing to do, so you help me find a rival all day long? As a brother-in-law, I have to advise you, it's always like this If you provoke others, if you encounter a hard problem one day, you may pay a heavy price!"
"You..." Xiaolei looked at Patriarch Xu: "Uncle, this trash is terminally ill and will die in a few days. Do you really want to marry Sister Ningrou to this trash?!"
Xiaolei took a mouthful of rubbish, and my complexion became gloomy...
