In the Zhao family's mansion, Zhang Li sat in the courtyard, looking up at the night sky, feeling very uncomfortable.

In fact, from the moment Zhao Qingqing appeared, tension was entangled, and this entanglement has been accompanied by tension for a long time.

Zhang Li didn't know if this feeling was good or bad, or even if his choice was right or wrong.

However, the fact is that at this time, Li Li can no longer comment on anything, after all, the decision has been made, and no matter what, it should be adhered to.

Just like the previous plan, between himself and Zhao Qingqing, there is actually no need for emotional turmoil, as for himself, as long as he guards Zhao Qingqing well and does not let Zhao Qingqing be hurt, it is enough.

This time when Linhai came, the purpose of tension was also very simple, that is, to come for that array of pestles, and by the way, take a look at Zhao Qingqing, which is enough

Finish.

Now, Zhao Qingqing has also seen it, and her goal has been achieved, but Zhang Li feels that she has nothing to do.

Back in the house, just as I was about to go to bed, I heard footsteps outside.

Zhang Zhang walked out and looked over, only to realize that the person who came over was none other than Zhao Hongchen.

Zhang Zhang looked over in some surprise and asked, "Old Man Zhao visited late at night, but is there anything wrong?"

Zhao Hongchen's expression was a little strange, he glanced at Zhang Li, then looked into the distance, and then sighed and said, "I don't know what Mr. Zhang thinks of my family?"

Hearing Zhao Hongchen say this, Zhang Zhang suddenly understood, isn't this already clear, it is aimed at Zhao Qingqing.

Zhang Li smiled bitterly, then turned around and entered the room, and said, "Old man Zhao, please." ”

Zhao Hongchen nodded slightly, then turned around and followed, entering inside.

Zhao Hongchen raised his eyes and looked around the room, then looked at Zhang Li's side, he smiled slightly, and said, "Mr. Zhang hasn't answered my question just now." ”

Zhang Zhang didn't expect that this Zhao Hongchen would ask a question, so Zhang Zhang had no choice but to nod and say: "It's good, in my opinion, Miss Zhao is gentle and beautiful, quiet and generous, she is a very good girl, I like it very much." ”

"In that case, Mr. Zhang is interested in my family Qingqing?" Zhao Hongchen said very bluntly.

Zhang Lilen paused for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Mr. Zhao should know, I am a family man, with a wife and children. ”

"Hugh is, as long as Mr. Zhang likes my family's Qingqing, then from now on, he will be my Zhao family's Chenglong fast son-in-law, you know, the strength of my Zhao family, and the Liu family, is not the same level. ”

Zhang Zhang was stunned again, he never expected that this Zhao Hongchen would speak so bluntly to this extent.

His two eyes stared at Zhao Hongchen for a long time,

Only then did he shake his head slightly, and said: "Mr. Zhao, please forgive me, although I have a good impression of Miss Zhao, I am a principled person, I will not do this kind of thing of abandoning my wife and children, and besides, Mr. Zhao should also know that I have no interest in the strength of the Zhao family, and even if the Zhao family is strong, it has not yet reached the situation where I am vassalized." ”

Zhao Hongchen shook his head slightly, as if he felt a little pity, and said, "Mr. Zhang, is there really no room for negotiation?"

Zhang Zhang shook his head and said: "If Miss Zhao has something, I will definitely come to help, and the Zhao family, as long as the Zhao family can be safe, I guarantee that no one will dare to touch the Zhao family, if someone dares to touch the Zhao family, then it is against my tension, and I will never let it go!"

Zhang Li knew that this was what Zhao Hongchen wanted, so he said it very simply.

Sure enough, when Zhang Zhang finished speaking, Zhao Hongchen's eyes were straight, and he seemed to be very happy, and immediately said, "Zhang."

Mr. is really courageous, after listening to Mr. Zhang's words today, my heart Zhao Hongchen is also much more relaxed. ”

Zhang Zhang nodded, then looked at Zhao Hongchen, and said, "I don't know what Mr. Zhao is worried about?"

Zhao Hongchen's expression suddenly became solemn, he sighed, and then said: " Mr. Zhang doesn't know, this Linhai City, my Zhao family and the Wang family, have existed for a long time, all along, the Wang family has the idea of wanting to annex my Zhao family, before hindering the strength of my Zhao family, the Wang family did not dare to be too presumptuous, but it is said that recently, the strength of the ancestor of the Wang family has improved a lot, and there are many descendants and descendants, who have also come back from the various sects, it seems that they are going to do a big job, and I don't know if it is aimed at my Zhao family. ”

"What about the current strength of the Zhao family?" Zhang Zhang looked over with some confusion.

Zhao Hongchen sighed and said helplessly: "Let's tell you the truth, my Zhao family, there is no strong man of the ground level for a long time, everyone thinks that I, Zhao Hongchen, am the strength of the ground level, but in fact, what they don't know is that as early as ten years ago, I had gone mad and paid for martial arts at my own expense

I'm just a waste person who knows a little bit of basic Taoism, and I don't have any combat power at all. ”

When Zhao Hongchen said this, Zhang Zhang was also stunned, at least, Zhang Zhang really didn't find out Zhao Hongchen's secret, he even always felt that Zhao Hongchen should be deeply hidden, until Zhao Hongchen said it very bluntly now, Zhang Zhang didn't know that the Zhao family in Linhai City had already reached a crisis of life and death.

"So, what does Mr. Zhao want me to do?" asked Zhang Li.

Zhao Hongchen looked outside, sighed, and said: "In half a month, it will be the ranking meeting of the major families in Linhai City, this time, if the total strength of our Zhao family falls, it is very likely that the Zhao family will be divided by other families." ”

"What do you mean, what total strength?"

Zhao Hongchen sighed and said: "There is a competition in the ranking conference, but there is also a simpler strength competition, the people of the major families jointly inject spiritual power into the spiritual power table, the higher the sum of the spiritual power table, then, the higher the ranking of this family." ”

After Zhao Hongchen's explanation, Zhang Zhang can be regarded as understanding

In fact, it's like a competition for financial resources, everyone in every family will take out their financial resources and put them into the pool, to see which family has the strongest financial resources in the end, which family is the king, Zhao Hongchen wants to express the meaning, it seems to be like this.

Zhang Zhang can be regarded as understanding, no wonder Zhao Hongchen is so worried.

He nodded and said, "If there is a need, when the time comes, I will go, and I will compete for your Zhao family." ”

When Zhao Hongchen heard the great joy, he immediately looked at Zhang Li, and said with a look of surprise: "Mr. Zhang, I... I really don't know how to thank him, really, I really appreciate it. ”

Zhang Zhang nodded and said, "Okay, okay, there is no need to say thank you, you can just look for me when the time comes, in the past two days, I may have some other things, don't bother me for the time being." ”

Zhao Hongchen nodded and said, "Then Mr. Zhang is busy first." ”

Zhang Li nodded and did not speak again.

Zhao Hongchen just retreated, and when he came in, he was still worried, and his face was already full of smiles at the moment, because of Zhao Hongchen

It is clear that as long as Zhang Li makes a move, then even if the Zhao family can't win the first place this time, it is still no problem to keep the ranking of the two major families in Linhai City.

As for what Zhang Zhang said about being busy in the past two days, it is actually because Zhang Zhang wants to accompany Zhao Qingqing to go around again.

After all, although Zhang Zhang rejected Zhao Qingqing, in the final analysis, the feelings of the previous life still exist, even if Zhang Zhang wants to forget, they are all feelings that cannot be forgotten.

On the second day, Zhang Zhang came to the door of Zhao Qingqing's bedroom early.

He subconsciously prepared to push the door in, but suddenly remembered the current relationship between the two, and felt that this was very inappropriate, so he looked at the end of the corridor.

It just so happened that a subordinate came over with breakfast, and Zhang Lishi looked over and said, "Hello, can you ask, is Miss Qingqing awake now?"

"What's the matter with you?" The subordinate looked disgusted, glared at Zhang Li, and entered Zhao Qingqing's bedroom.

Zhang Zhang was slightly stunned, but then he reacted, Zhang Zhang knew that he was disgusted, but there was no way to do it, after all, Zhang Zhang was also offended by Zhao Qingqing, and it seemed normal to be bluffed by Zhao Qingqing's subordinates.

With a long sigh, Zhang Li had no choice but to stand at the door.

"Qingqing, are you awake?" Zhang Zhang shouted.

There was no voice from Zhao Qingqing inside, but after a while, the subordinate walked out, looked at Zhang Zhang with a disgusted face and said, "What are you shouting, Miss is still asleep, if you wake up Miss, be careful that I will abolish you!"

Zhang Zhang closed her mouth all of a sudden, this little girl, her mouth is still quite powerful.

But Zhang Zhang is not ready to pay attention to this little girl, after all, his identity is also placed here, what is the identity of this little girl, how can he be so worried?

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhang also rolled his eyes, and then looked in the direction of the bedroom, Zhang Li continued to shout: "Qingqing, I."

I know you're already up, don't be angry with me, where do you want to go today, I'll take you to play?"

In the next moment, the door of the room was suddenly opened, and immediately after, Zhao Qingqing stood at the door of the room with a huffing face.

"Where are you going? I don't want to go, I just want to sleep, you hurry, where did you come from, where do you go, I don't welcome you here. ”

Zhao Qingqing's tone was very sharp, and it was obvious that Zhao Qingqing was already angry.
