Since the accident in the boxing match, the city lord Xiao Tianchou has been ill. He temporarily handed over the management of the city hall to Xiao Qingyao from his hospital bed. The officials who supported the eldest son and the third son deeply regretted being on the wrong team and quickly fawned over Xiao Qingyao.
The faster a person moves, the more it shows that he is not sharp enough, and his official career can only stop here. A major accident occurred during the boxing match, which shocked the envoys from the outer city and the young master of the Horizon Merchant Group. Someone must step forward to take the responsibility.
Xiao Qingyao knew very well that she did not really hold the power, but was blocking the bullet for her father's sons. If she cannot appease the eldest young master's anger, she will become cannon fodder or a sacrifice.
Xiao Qingyao didn't have any good ideas for the pampered and moody Mr. Zhang.
Lose money? The most indispensable thing for the Horizon Business Group is money.
Compensate? Xiao Qingyao also needs to be able to see Mr. Zhang in person.
Young Master Zhang refused to meet anyone related to the City Hall, as if he believed that the deformed body was related to the City Hall. Xiao Qingyao had been uneasy in her dormitory for several days, until this morning, her subordinates sent word that Young Master Zhang had asked Xiao Qingyao to have dinner.
Xiao Qingyao carefully selected a rose-red off-the-shoulder dress and attended with two of the top ten defenders of the city - "Playing Gale" Lu Pirate and "Red Lotus" Lianrou.
I thought the meeting place was a restaurant, but I didn't expect Young Master Zhang to have the dining table moved directly into the luxurious king-size bed room on Wenwen Street. Thinking about it on the other hand, this is really his style of doing things.
Lianrou looked at the dining table and then at the fragrant big bed in the room. Everyone could imagine what Mr. Zhang did after dinner. She frowned, feeling that the face of the city hall had been humiliated.
Lu Pirates pulled out the chair for Xiao Qingyao to sit down. He and Lian Rou stood not far behind him. With the two of them around, Young Master Zhang would at least be a little wary.
Young Master Zhang smiled and said: "Brother Xiao, no, I should call you Sister Xiao now. Do you think I will poison the food?"
Xiao Qingyao said: "Of course I don't think so."
Young Master Zhang said: "Then why do you still have guards with you? Look, my guards are not in the house."
Lianrou said: "In addition to poisoning food, there are other dangers and hidden dangers."
Zhang Dashao said: "There is a famous dish called stir-fried duck tongue. I heard that the duck used as the raw material has two tongues. It ends up like this because it is too talkative."
Lianrou said: "You..."
Xiao Qingyao stopped her: "Rourou, you and Thief Lu go out first. I have something to say to Young Master Zhang alone."
"We will stay outside the door." Lian Rou glared at Mr. Zhang fiercely, and then left the room with Lu Dao.
Young Master Zhang said: "This woman is quite hot, but I don't know if she is always this hot."
Xiao Qingyao said: "Her super power is red lotus. It can burn people to charcoal in three seconds. Young Master Zhang is careful to cause the fire."
Young Master Zhang said: "I have long been tired of women made of water, but I really want to try women made of fire."
Xiao Qingyao didn't want to really push Lian Rou into the fire pit, so she changed the subject and said, "Our Xiao family owes Young Master Zhang an apology. I'm really sorry for frightening you that night."
Mr. Zhang said: "If it is really arranged by your city hall, I should be the one to say thank you."
Xiao Qingyao asked: "Why?"
Young Master Zhang said: "Sister Xiao, why do you ask questions knowingly? So many people died, but you saved me a lot of money."
In the bet between Gan Xiaoyi and Jin Xue Shou, the banker was the Horizon Merchant Group. They secretly built momentum for Gan Xiaoyi, inciting more than 70% of the audience to bet on Gan Xiaoyi's victory, and then used other means to make Gan Xiaoyi abandon the game.
Unexpectedly, Gan Xiaoyi "broken his word" and defeated Jinxue. What was originally a guaranteed profit turned into a loss. This loss is not a big deal for the Horizon Merchant Group, but Young Master Zhang will definitely get scolded by the old man for it.
He really wanted to kill Gan Xiaoyi in the ring.
At this moment, a deformed body suddenly appeared. A large number of spectators were eaten, and the surviving spectators wanted to cash out afterwards, but were told that the entire bet was void due to the accident, and at most the principal would be refunded. The audience who survived the catastrophe and saved a small life and got their principal back will only feel lucky and will not continue to delve deeper.
Of course Xiao Qingyao knew that the Horizon Business Group did not lose money, but the price was hundreds of bloody lives. She originally thought that Mr. Zhang would have some sympathy for the deceased, which was the most basic human nature. However, his tone was not only happy, but even a little proud.
This guy,
Not human at all.
Xiao Qingyao said: "As for monsters like deformed bodies, has your business group encountered them before?"
Young Master Zhang said: "Miss, this is the business I want to discuss with you."
Xiao Qingyao said: "Business?"
Mr. Zhang said: "I heard that after I left, another great guy appeared in the venue, and he was killed by Wu Chan. His body and the body of the deformed body were recovered by the city hall. These bodies, our Horizon Business Group wanted."
Xiao Qingyao said: "No."
Young Master Zhang said: "You should at least listen to my quotation."
Xiao Qingyao said: "A003 New City has learned about the existence of deformed bodies. The commissioner to recover the corpses is already on the way. Our city hall no longer has the authority to dispose of these corpses."
Zhang Dashao said: "Before the commissioner arrives, accidents may happen at any time, such as a fire in the warehouse."
Xiao Qingyao must refuse.
A003 Xincheng is not a fool and cannot be fooled like this.
If D067 New City offends the Horizon Business Group, it will inevitably be economically suppressed, and they may even pretend to be bandits to rob merchants outside the city. But D067 New City can also seek help from other business groups.
But what is the price for offending A003 Xincheng
D067 Xincheng will lose technical support for concentrated energy furnaces.
The energy-concentrating furnace built deep underground is the soul of a new city. The most critical threshold for an E-level new city to advance to D-level is to have its own energy-concentrating furnace. The energy-concentrating furnace has nowhere to build except A003 New City, and even the in-depth maintenance personnel once every six months are directly assigned by A003. In other words, other new cities would not be able to repair them, let alone build energy-gathering furnaces.
A003 New Town holds the lifeblood of all new cities.
Xiao Qingyao was talking, and Young Master Zhang's expression changed slightly: "Sister Xiao, you don't want to reject me, right?"
Xiao Qingyao said: "The best I can do is to secretly leave you a deformed corpse."
Young Master Zhang said: "I want everything."
Xiao Qingyao was stunned for a moment. She suddenly realized that Zhang Dashao’s focus was not on getting the body of the deformed body, but on not wanting A003 to get...
"I can't promise you that," she said.
Young Master Zhang said: "I don't like people rejecting me."
Xiao Qingyao said: "If I can, I don't want to refuse you. But..."
Young Master Zhang smiled: "Of course you don't have to refuse me. If you make me happy, then Horizon Business Group and D067 will always be good friends."
He swept all the dishes on the table that the two of them had not touched on the floor.
"Good sister, lie down on your own."
Xiao Qingyao smiled bitterly in her heart, no wonder he had to prepare such a big dining table.
The sound of plates falling to the floor in the room naturally alerted Lian Rou and Lu Pirates outside the door. Before the two of them could take action, an ectoplasmic long sword appeared out of thin air in front of their throats.
"Don't move."
Han Lingbao's voice sounded in the shadows of the corridor.
"If your eldest lady doesn't want to, she will scream."
Xiao Qingyao was lying on the hard dining table. In fact, she had already guessed what would happen tonight before she came and was mentally prepared.
A young body of twenty years old can be exchanged for the stability of the entire new city before the ultimate zombie wave in December. This price is simply a discount, and she is willing to sacrifice herself.
But he is also a young man with a prominent background.
Wu Chan would never be able to do such a despicable thing.
Xiao Qingyao's mind reflected on the cold profile of her face when she was rescued, as well as the feeling of herself pressed against his chest.
Tonight, just pretend that you were bitten by a dog...
"Are you thinking about other men?"
Young Master Zhang stopped placing his hand on Xiao Qingyao's thigh.
Xiao Qingyao turned her face sideways and said nothing.
Young Master Zhang grabbed her chin and turned her face towards her: "Answer me."
Xiao Qingyao looked at him without any emotion.
Mr. Zhang likes women to please and flatter him, but he also likes women to resist and scream. But never allow a woman to be like a dead fish!
"I'm asking you for the last time, are you thinking about men?"
"yes."
"who is it?!"
"It has nothing to do with you. I am yours tonight and tonight only."
Young Master Zhang pinched Xiao Qingyao's chin harder and harder: "Do you know what you are talking about?"
Xiao Qingyao said: "Please don't waste everyone's time."
Young Master Zhang let go of his hand: "The man you are thinking of is Wu Chan."
Xiao Qingyao repeated: "It has nothing to do with you."
Young Master Zhang said: "Do you think he would have thought of you looking like this?"
Xiao Qingyao blushed, half angry and half ashamed. She looked at Young Master Zhang without fear: "So what if he knows, as long as he is willing to curl his fingers at me, I am willing to follow him for the rest of my life and be his lover." Concubine, maid, I will not only use my body but also my soul to serve him and please him!"
Young Master Zhang raised his palm: "You fart!"
Xiao Qingyao smiled: "Oh, compared with Wu Chan, are you considered a man?"
Young Master Zhang couldn't hit Xiao Qingyao with a slap that could break Xiao Qingyao's teeth, because if the slap continued, he would be completely defeated.
"Get out of here!"
Xiao Qingyao got down from the dining table and pulled the hem of her dress.
"Thank you for your hospitality tonight."
When the door of the room opened, Lu Piian and Lianrou breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Xiao Qingyao, whose clothes were intact and her hair was not messed up.
Lian Rou said: "Is it okay?"
Xiao Qingyao said: "Well, let's go back."
inside the house.
Young Master Zhang, who was sitting on the chair, looked gloomier than the shadows.
"Uncle Han."
"exist."
"Tell me how to kill that Wu Chan."
"Offending the Wu family is the most irrational thing to do."
"Then I won't kill him, I'll just make him suffer unbearable pain. That should be okay."
"Young Master, please give me your instructions."
