In the private room downstairs.
Good tea and pastries.
In addition, the three of them were staring at each other.
With Yang Duo 'er's temper, she would definitely protect her mother. Therefore, she did not have a good attitude towards Mu Shichong.
However, he had to admit that Mu Shichong was really cute when he took off his mask.
She looked so obedient and cute when she smiled.
And her figure, who knows how she grew it.
And how old was she?
Yang Duo 'er did not know Mu Shichong's age, but it seemed that Mu Shichong was about the same age as her.
"Are you done with your family matters?"
"Yes, it's over."
When did you return to Zhong Hai?"
"In the afternoon."
"You came back in the afternoon and came to the ghost market at night? You're really playful!" Shao Xuanlong's tone was unfriendly.
" Hehe…I was just thinking of taking a break and looking for you tomorrow…"
Shao Xuanlong's gentle temperament was different from before. At this moment, he was even more domineering.
Mu Shichong's heart trembled and he instantly weakened a little as he smiled awkwardly.
Her feelings for Shao Xuanlong were extremely complicated.
In the past, they were together by accident.
However, she knew Shao Xuanlong's nature very well. This man was not a good person.
He was definitely not the best partner in her heart.
However, with the help he received later on, he was a little 'convinced' whether it was physically or mentally.
Although he didn't completely fall for it, he couldn't reject it.
It was still fine when they didn't meet. Their rationality was still more or less there, and they could force themselves not to think about it. They could eat, drink, and have fun to distract themselves.
However, once they met, Mu Shichong became timid and weak.
Yang Duo 'er stood at the side and did not speak. She was eating pastries and watching the show.
She was also puzzled. These two people didn't feel right. They didn't seem like a normal couple. Instead, they seemed to be forcing each other.
One side forced him, and the other side didn't dare to resist?
Is that so?
Yang Duo 'er guessed.
The atmosphere in the private room was a little strange until the security personnel returned.
He brought the information that Shao Xuanlong needed. As for that Elder Wei, he did not appear. He was probably afraid of trouble.
Other than the baldy's general information, there was also a platinum badge.
Was this Elder Wei's goodwill?
Shao Xuanlong knew what level the platinum badge was. Not only could he bring anyone with him every time he came, but he could also advance one billion yuan in cash at will. In addition, there was no limit to his spending in the ghost market.
In other words, with this badge, after verifying your identity, you can directly take away one billion yuan in cash from the ghost market for emergency use.
Moreover, all the expenses in the ghost city, including gambling, auctions during the day, going down to the second floor, going down to the third floor... and other transactions, could be paid at will.
He would return the money later.
This platinum badge had the logo of Zhong Hai, but if he went to other ghost markets, he could also get 30% of the quota, which was 300 million in cash.
The ghost market in Zhong Hai will vouch for you.
However, Shao Xuanlong also knew that this thing was not something that Elder Wei had the authority to distribute. It must have been Elder Wei who called Liu Man to ask for instructions.
The platinum badge of the Ghost Market was the highest level, and the number of people who had it was definitely not more than the number of people in two hands.
Although it was called platinum, it could also be called a diamond badge.
Platinum base, inlaid with diamonds.
"Help me thank your CEO Liu." Shao Xuanlong looked at it and smiled as he closed the brocade box with the badge.
"Alright, sir. If you need to deal with anything in the future, just tell us.”
These words were very tactful. If you can avoid fighting, don't do it. Come to us. We have a way to solve it.
After the bodyguards left.
Yang Duo 'er took the brocade box and looked at the beautiful Ghost Market badge. She said,""This is so beautiful. Is it a real diamond?”
As she spoke, Yang Duo 'er even reached out and knocked.
Shao Xuanlong rolled his eyes.”
“??”
Yang Duo 'er was stunned." You really think I haven't seen the world?" she snorted. This diamond…was huge, but at most, it was worth tens of millions, right? Don't be so stingy, okay? Here, these chips are for you, and this thing is for me.”
Yang Duo 'er was young but smart. She pushed the million-dollar horse to Shao Xuanlong and took the diamond brocade box away happily.
Did women really like diamonds that much?
It was no exception even at such a young age.
Shao Xuanlong laughed and shook his head. He did not say anything.
She was his daughter.
Spoiled!
Shao Xuanlong did not think too much about it because Mu Shichong and Yang Duo 'er definitely did not know the true value of this platinum badge.
Shao Xuanlong nodded." I can give it to you, but you can't drop it. Otherwise, it will be troublesome."”
"Don't worry, stinky dad…stinky brother.”
“……”
Mu Shichong looked at Shao Xuanlong and then at Yang Duo 'er. His eyes were filled with words: Are you a beast? This was really a little girl, not Tong Yan. How could he be so cruel?
"Let's go, Duo Er. It's too late. You still have to go back to school.”
"What? So fast? I haven't had enough fun yet." Yang Duo 'er frowned.
"It will be dawn in more than an hour. Shi Chong, are you leaving?”
"I…"
Mu Shichong hesitated for a moment." I'll play for a while longer. I'll go find Ziyu during the day."”
Shao Xuanlong knew that this girl was deliberately avoiding him, so he did not force her. He nodded and said,"Alright, call me if there's anything.”
"Yes, I know." Mu Shichong heaved a sigh of relief. She was afraid that Shao Xuanlong would forcefully take her away. She could not refuse at all.
Currently, among the seven female leads in the first plot, Mu Shichong was the one who was most conflicted.
She, who hid her inferiority complex, was constantly wavering between two ends in her heart.
Ordinary people could not understand her emotions, but Shao Xuanlong more or less understood. To put it bluntly, she wanted to, but she did not dare to.
Because this did not match her view of love, and because she felt a little inferior, she was afraid that she would get hurt after giving her all.
Therefore, she always seemed very pretentious, hesitant, and conflicted.
Actually, this was an illness.
Just a few times!
Shao Xuanlong was prepared to find a time to call her and Dong Ziyu together to play Fight the Landlord. It was estimated that there would be nothing to do.
Towards Mu Shichong, there was nothing that couldn't be solved once and for all.
If there was, then twice.
……
The Ghost Market had been open for two days. There were things to play at night and during the day. During the day, it was basically an auction, from people to things, antiques, luxury cars, yachts, mansions, land, and so on…
At night, they would play horse racing. There were balls and nightclub-like halls next to them. They played even more crazily and had everything.
In short, I won't let you idle.
It's constantly taking away your money and energy.
Yang Duo 'er was dragged away by Shao Xuanlong and had to be sent back to school.
Although Yang Duo 'er pouted and didn't want to leave, she relaxed after getting into the car. Soon, she yawned and felt sleepy.
In the blink of an eye, she leaned against the back seat and snored lightly.
It was really exciting inside, but after the excitement, it was as if his spirit had been sucked dry.
Shao Xuanlong flipped through the information on the bald uncle from before. He thought that he was some kind of awesome figure, but he was just a disciple of a third-rate ancient martial arts family.
There wasn't even a neutral jing expert in the clan, so there probably wasn't much hidden jing.
"I'll start with you guys. Consider it…the first step in establishing my own force.”
Shao Xuanlong's eyes flashed with a rarely seen sharpness and killing intent.
Hmm?
After Shao Xuanlong closed the information, his thoughts quickly ran through his mind.
There were a few questions that puzzled him today.
The first one was naturally a scene where he had to act dumb and slap his face.
It seemed like a coincidence, but it was definitely not something that a villain should encounter.
The second was killing intent.
Shao Xuanlong clearly felt that there was something wrong with him. He was easily angered after encountering something.
Speaking of which, these two were small matters, but Shao Xuanlong did not like it. He felt as if he had been arranged by fate.
He preferred to have everything in his own hands and be able to clearly perceive the future.
He didn't have much time to think about it in the ghost market. Now that he had calmed down, he quickly guessed the reason.
The first hero saving the damsel in distress was probably attracted by Mu Shichong himself. She was a lucky girl, so it was understandable that she would encounter some trouble. She was born to encounter such things easily.
He could be considered to have plundered Su Han's luck and become a special hot shot. He naturally had countless connections with her.
However, she was not a real hot shot after all. She was only a villain, so Mu Shichong did not encounter much of a problem. Even if Shao Xuanlong did not appear this time, she would not be in any danger.
If it was really a hot shot who encountered such a thing, Mu Shichong would definitely lose that game and be forced to do something. This was the usual routine.
However, if it were her, Mu Shichong would win. Although she was a little troublesome, she could solve some problems by herself.
This was the difference.
……
As for the second killing intent.
It should be related to the medal.
The medal of 'tyrant' could be understood as people like the Conqueror Xiang Yu. Would such people know how to scheme against others? Obviously not.
Wasn't the simplest and crudest way to kill?
The medal could also affect one's state of mind.
When he was wearing the Young Master Medal, he used his brain most of the time. Even if he killed someone, he would be gentle and calculative.
Each had its own advantages and disadvantages.
……
After thinking about these two things, Shao Xuanlong did not think too much about it.
As long as it wasn't a problem with the plane, then it wasn't a big deal.
Whether it was a tyrant or a young master, the result was the same. Shao Xuanlong could take turns wearing the medal to control his state of mind.
After all, sometimes being too simple and crude might not be a good thing.
They would wear different medals depending on the scene.
…………
"Oh ~~~"
In a daze, Yang Duo 'er woke up.
The sky outside gradually brightened.
Have you ever seen…Zhonghai City at five in the morning?
"Stinky daddy, I dreamt of you again. I'll beat you up…"
“???”
Shao Xuanlong raised his eyebrows.
What was this girl talking about?
In just a moment.
Only then did Yang Duo 'er completely wake up. Her small face was sleepy and she could not open her eyes. She kept blinking and turned red.
"You're at school?" Yang Duo 'er rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked outside the car as she muttered.
"Yes, we're here…hurry back to school. Remember, don't lose your badge. If you do, tell me immediately, okay?”Shao Xuanlong reminded.
"Oh!"
Yang Duo 'er pouted and nodded sleepily. She patted the brocade box in her arms, got out of the car, and left quickly.
Her earlobes were red.
Even though she pretended to be calm, Shao Xuanlong could still tell.
He just didn't expose her.
This little girl was so thin-skinned.
As for why he would dream about it, it was actually very easy to understand. First, it was about bombs, and then all kinds of fights. As long as you think about it, you will have a dream at night.
If he always thought of all kinds of revenge, his dreams would naturally reappear.
Shao Xuanlong would not expose him. He would take his time…There was no hurry.
Waiting for her and Xiaoxiao to grow up together!
…………
Early morning.
Shao Xuanlong rested for three hours and was full of energy.
However, what surprised him was that Mu Qing was still sleeping in?
This girl would usually wake up at dawn to practice. It was already eight o'clock, but the courtyard was actually empty.
Shao Xuanlong suspected that she was sick.
He pushed the door open and entered.
Mu Qing was awakened by a soft sound.
Martial artists themselves had sharp six senses. The slightest movement of grass and wind basically could not escape the martial artist's eyes and ears.
"I'm sorry, brother. I…I woke up late.”Mu Qing looked at the sunlight shining through the curtains and said hurriedly.
Shao Xuanlong stepped forward and touched her forehead with the back of his hand."Are you sick?"
"No, no." Mu Qing lowered her head weakly and pondered for a moment before saying,""I'm sorry, brother. I-I saw the documents on your desk.”
Anything that could be placed on the table was basically not a secret.
Shao Xuanlong said," It's fine if you read it. There's no need to apologize. However, you woke up so late. What does it have to do with you reading documents?"”
"I…I saw Big Brother Chu's information.”
“……”
Hey, you saw it yourself.
I really didn't plan to give it to you.
Shao Xuanlong immediately understood the source of her state.
She had insomnia.
This was the consequence of peeking at other people's things.
Stinky sister, this is karma. Let's see if you'll still peek in the future.
Although she was also a martial artist and her realm wasn't low, she trained very hard every day. Basically, she would only rest after she was exhausted.
Therefore, her daily sleep time was similar to that of ordinary people, maintaining at least eight hours.
Once they had insomnia, they would be in low spirits for the entire day.
It was normal to sleep in.
Shao Xuanlong burst into laughter. Then, he sighed and said faintly,"I didn't intend to show you this information. After all…people change.”
"I know, but I feel bad. How did he become like this? How am I going to tell everyone when I return to the village? Everyone is counting on him." Mu Qing was disappointed and aggrieved.
Shao Xuanlong pulled her over and gently patted her back.
He wasn't jealous.
He understood Mu Qing now. She might have feelings for a child, but there was absolutely no love.
Shao Xuanlong's state of mind was not to the extent of being jealous over a…friend of hers when she was young.
Wuwuwu--
Feeling Shao Xuanlong's care and gentleness, Mu Qing could not help but cry softly.
She had just woken up, and she still had the unique warm smell of the blanket.
Shao Xuanlong liked this kind of aura very much.
Of course, he didn't try to persuade her.
He only comforted her with his actions…
…………
At the same time.
In an old courtyard.
Liu Man met the current Liu family.
He was her biological father.
He looked like he was in his fifties.
He had an imposing aura.
His old eyes were sharp.
"You came to disturb my dreams in the early hours of the morning. I'll leave you alone for a few hours to give you some memory.”
"I've told you countless times that you're now the person in charge of the ghost market. You have to remain calm even if Mount Tai collapses in front of you.”
"Look at you now. The ghost market was still open, and you, the person in charge, ran back. Did the sky collapse?”
"Xiao Man, I don't want to criticize you, but you can't calm down like this. How can I give you a burden in the future?”
"You also know that you are a girl. Girls are easily discriminated against in the martial arts world. You have to reflect on yourself, understand? Father still thinks very highly of you."
Father Liu liked to preach, especially to the younger generation. He could make a big deal out of a small problem that he didn't like.
It's as if you're going to cause the family to suffer a huge loss because of this small problem.
Liu Man had arrived early in the morning, but she was stopped by the butler and waited until now.
Looking at his father's behavior, although he understood, he was still angry.
After all, Liu Man was not a child anymore. She had been in power for many years and had her own temper.
"Father."
"Our Liu family is finished," Liu Man said seriously.”
Bang!
Father Liu rebuked angrily," If you continue spouting nonsense, I'll break your legs. Do you really think I can't bear to?" Hmm?"
"Do I dare to spout nonsense in front of you?" Liu Man smiled bitterly. If it wasn't an emergency, would I disturb your sleep in the middle of the night? My Liu family is really in trouble now. Otherwise, why can't I wait for two days?”
“……”
Father Liu pondered for a moment.
However, what big deal could it be?
The martial world was considered peaceful now. Even if there were some fluctuations, it would not affect a family like theirs.
"Tell me, what is it?" Father Liu said.
"About the Chu family, there's actually someone alive in the direct bloodline of the Chu family.”Liu Man did not beat around the bush and said it directly.
Father Liu's brows were tightly knitted together.
This matter was indeed serious.
Although more than ten years had passed.
However, the smell of blood in the sky of the martial world had not dissipated.
Otherwise, the surname Chu wouldn't have been deliberately avoided by everyone.
As a result, the children who were born in the past ten years did not know that the seven families had the existence of the giant "Chu".
It could be seen how taboo everyone was.
"Is the news reliable?" Father Liu muttered.”
"It should be true. I know it's a big matter, so I didn't dare to delay. I've already sent people to investigate and immediately came back to report to father.”Liu Man said.
"Very well, being cautious. But…" Father Liu nodded.
Father Liu paused." Even if Old Chu has a direct descendant, what does that have to do with what you just said?" Why is my Liu family finished? If you don't tell me what's wrong, don't blame me for punishing you.”
Back then, the Liu Family was not the only one who attacked Old Truman.
The other families and even the top units also made their moves.
Even if Old Truman had an orphan who was still alive and had returned to take revenge, it was impossible for him to only target the Liu family.
At most, he would just kill her.
So many masters of Old Truman had died back then, how many could still be alive now?
He could even overturn the heavens?
Therefore, Father Liu was not very worried. He also felt that his daughter was making a fuss over nothing.
Heh.
After all, she was still young and had never experienced anything. This kind of thing could make her so nervous.
It seemed that this girl still needed more experience.
Thinking of this…
Father Liu relaxed. He picked up the teacup, skimmed off the foam, and slowly drank the tea.
Liu Man seemed to know what her father was thinking and said bluntly,""Father, if there is only an orphan, it is indeed not a big deal. But what if this orphan has something to do with my Liu family? There are people in the Liu family who sponsor this orphan all year round.”
Puff...
Father Liu spat out a mouthful of tea.
His beard was wet.
His eyes glared angrily.
"How is this possible?" Father Liu's tone was shocked and angry.
Liu Man held back her laughter.
Bah.
Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, and he slipped away.
What happened to being calm?
Liu Man held back her laughter and said in a deep voice," My source of information should be reliable. There's no need for the other party to lie to me. I've already sent someone to investigate. I believe there will be news soon. However, Father..."
"If someone from my Liu Family is really helping the orphan of the Chu Family, it will be very troublesome once this matter gets out," said Liu Man.”
"It's not just very troublesome. It's very, very troublesome.”
Father Liu slammed the antique teacup on the floor and stood up, his body bursting with killing intent.
Father Liu said angrily," Old Truman's incident was the will of all the higher-ups back then. So, even if Old Truman was not wrong, they should have died. This incident happened more than ten years ago. It's neither long nor short. The person in charge of the operation back then is still alive..."
"Therefore, once my Liu family is involved with them, it will be like yellow mud falling into the pants. Even if it's not shit, it won't be explained clearly.”
"Although it won't cause too much trouble for us, we'll definitely be ostracized.”
"All these years, my Liu family has been keeping a low profile.”
"Isn't it because of what happened to Old Truman back then?”
"Such a big family, so many experts, how many died in the end, and how many survived? Sigh…"
"The rise and fall of a hundred-year-old family is nothing more than a decline after its peak. They also knew that if they could not jump out of the clan's level, they would definitely decline rapidly in the future because too many people were watching them.”
"Unfortunately, Old Truman failed in the end. Do you really think Old Truman did it because of the profits from the ghost market? How much is that?"
" Therefore, our Liu Family must keep a low profile. We must not fight for the top and the bottom. Only then can our family be passed down from generation to generation..."
Father Liu paced back and forth, talking non-stop.
One could tell his character.
It was steady.
He also liked stability.
As long as the family was stable, it was enough. Therefore, after he became the family head, the family mainly kept a low profile.
He didn't have that much initiative and wouldn't have offended so many people.
Old Truman had offended too many people back then. Many of them were not intentionally offended, but in the face of benefits, many people and forces would be affected for no reason.
As long as you want to expand, you will definitely take away the interests of others.
It was unavoidable.
Rome wasn't built in a day.
In the end, the ghost market incident was just a prelude that caused public outrage.
It was also because Old Truman was too strong, so strong that it made people afraid!
Therefore, they had to die.
……
" Investigate, investigate properly. Right, investigate secretly. Other than you and me, no third person is allowed to know about this..."
"Also, who told you this news?" Father Liu asked. Have you dealt with it?"
"I didn't touch Shao Xuanlong, the third-generation son of the Shao family.”Liu Man did not hide anything.
"Shao family?"
Father Liu thought that they were from the martial world, but he didn't expect them to be from an official family.
What was this?
Could he endure it?
Seeing her father's confusion, Liu Man opened her mouth and said,""Father, this Shao Xuanlong should be a neutralizing Jin expert.”
(⊙_⊙)?
Father Liu was stunned for a long time before he asked,""I haven't left home for a long time. Is that why the streets outside are filled with neutralizing Jin experts now?”
Liu Man laughed and shook her head." Not really. My Liu family only has a few now."”
"Then what's going on with the Shao family? You changed careers?"
"No, he's just representing himself. He seems to have had some fortuitous encounter. He's the only martial artist in the Shao family.”
Father Liu clicked his tongue and muttered,""Then this matter will be a little troublesome. If he spreads the news…it will be dangerous.”
If it was an ordinary person, he would have killed them directly.
At the clan level, it was all about weighing the pros and cons. What did human lives mean?
At most, he would just say…sorry.
So, was it really good to offend the Shao family?
And if he offended her, would he be able to ensure that the news would not be leaked?
If they were angered, they would kill him, the news would be leaked, and they would even offend the Shao family. No matter what, they would be at a disadvantage.
He was the son of the third generation.
Liu Man said," Father, don't worry. I've already formed an alliance with him. Moreover, he took the initiative to bring this news. He obviously has no ill intentions. Let's settle the trouble at home as soon as possible and then contact the other families. There shouldn't be too much of a problem.”
Father Liu was helpless, but he could only nod.""Let's do this first. Find the traitor in the family. I want to see who has the guts to help Old Truman's orphan.”
Father Liu's words were filled with killing intent.
Obviously, as long as they found out who it was, they would not let it go easily.
It would be best if he could get rid of them internally. It would also be an explanation. It would make the Liu family's attitude clear so that the others would have nothing to say.
However, when he found out that this person was his most beloved granddaughter, Liu Chuyu, who knew how he would react.
