Chapter 96: Wooing

Jiang came to look at the door of the banquet hall, and saw Xiao Cheng, accompanied by Xiao Ling, walking with a dragon and a tiger, and came with his hands in his hands. As the helmsman of the Xiao family, Xiao Cheng has a very high status in QZ City, so his appearance immediately attracted the attention of all the guests.

In the face of everyone's high enthusiasm, Xiao Cheng frowned slightly and didn't say a word, as if he didn't like this kind of flattery very much. Perhaps because of his impatience, everyone understood, and immediately set their eyes on Xiao Ling behind them, and all kinds of praise were not stingy, praising her like the only beauty in the sky and on the ground.

Who doesn't like to listen to flattery, let alone an arrogant woman like Xiao Ling, who naturally smiles and responds to everyone's greetings one by one.

Seeing Xiao Cheng sitting down not far away, Hai Liusha hesitated slightly, and then slowly stood up, "Jiang Lai, do you want to go with me to visit Xiao Lao?" Because of Xiao Ling that day, she knew that Jiang Lai knew the Xiao family, so she asked this question.

"Not interested. Jiang Lai shook his head, "If he wants to see me, he will naturally come." ”

Although Xiao Cheng is an elder, this time is different from the past, with his current status, the other party is not qualified enough to let him visit in person.

"What a big breath. Guan Linglong sneered, with a look of contempt, "Could it be that you are a big person, and people are still rushing to see you?" After a pause, she sat up straight and looked at Xiao Cheng, who was surrounded by everyone, and seemed to be very interested in that person, "Quicksand, is he the helmsman of the Xiao family you mentioned?" You tell him, just say I want to talk to him and let him come over to see me." ”

Seeing the back of the sea quicksand leaving, Jiang Lai secretly speculated, and he didn't know what this woman was about, what a big shelf. Looking at the entire QZ city, I'm afraid no one dares to say such a thing. However, to his surprise, after Hai Liusha whispered a few words to Xiao Cheng, the latter immediately turned his gaze to this side, and then walked over quickly.

"Miss Guan, I'm really sorry, I didn't know you were here just now, don't be surprised. Before the person arrived, Xiao Cheng's hearty laughter had already come.

Looking at Xiao Cheng who was striding over, Guan Linglong didn't mean to get up to greet him, but pointed to the seat next to him, "Old Xiao, please take a seat!"

Xiao Cheng smiled disapprovingly, and was about to sit down, but Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Jiang Lai on the side, and was taken aback, and the body that had just sat down stood up again, clasped his hands into fists and said, "Mr. Jiang, it turns out that you are also here, rude, really rude." ”

Seeing this scene, Guan Linglong was a little surprised, and couldn't help but look at Jiang Lai a few more times, she thought that the other party was just talking nonsense, but she didn't expect Xiao Cheng to show an attitude that was a little more polite than seeing her.

After thinking about it, I only listened to Xiao Cheng say: "Mr. Jiang, I heard Xiao Ling's girl say last time, I'm sorry, it's my lack of discipline, if there is something offended, please don't take it to heart, I've taught her a good lesson, if you don't get angry, I'll let that girl apologize to you personally." ”

As he spoke, Xiao Cheng was ready to call Xiao Ling over.

"Xiao Lao, the past is over, I don't care. ”

"Really?" Xiao Cheng was overjoyed.

At the beginning, after he learned that Jiang Lai had defeated a master at the peak of his internal strength, the shock in his heart could not be expressed in words. However, what Xiao Ling did made him extremely angry, if he could win over Jianglai, in the future QZ City, the Xiao family would be called the second, who would dare to call it the first.

It's a pity that such a good opportunity was buried by his own granddaughter, for which he also fell seriously ill and did not recover until recently.

"Mr. Jiang, why don't you ...... Come sit with me another day and have a cup of tea together?"

"Old Xiao, I appreciate your kindness, but I don't have time. ”

Jiang Lai's faint words instantly made Xiao Cheng's last glimmer of hope come to naught. He smiled bitterly, sure enough, the other party had completely lost his mind to the Xiao family.

Seeing Xiao Cheng accompanying Jiang Lai, as if he had forgotten his existence, Guan Linglong was suddenly a little dissatisfied, with a thin anger on his face, and shouted lightly: "Xiao Cheng, are you here to see me, or are you here to see him?"

Feeling Guan Linglong's anger, Xiao Cheng was shocked, and secretly said badly, almost offended this eldest lady.

Although the big man of the official family has passed away, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and with the influence and power of the official family, it is easier to bring down the Xiao family than to pinch an ant to death.

Since Jiang Lai can't count on it, maybe the official family is another choice. Thinking of this, he smiled and sat down next to Guan Linglong, "Miss Guan, I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang is my friend, let's talk a little more, don't be surprised." ”

After a pause, he changed his words, "I don't know what Miss Guan is looking for my old man?" At his age, he doesn't like to hide it very much, and instead of bothering to guess the other party's thoughts, it is better to open the skylight and say something bright.

"Xiao Lao is a happy person, since this is the case, then I will be straightforward, our official family wants to take back QZ City. As we all know, the former QZ City was dominated by the Nanyue Group, because the Nanyue Group was behind the official family, so no one dared to provoke it. However, in recent years, there have been some accidents in the official family, which has caused Nanyue Group to be bullied, and everyone wants to get a piece of the pie in QZ City. ”

Speaking of this, Guan Linglong sneered, "Although the official family has been silent for a few years, it doesn't mean that we have disappeared. Now, the official family has risen again, so I want to take back what I lost, and by the way, teach some people who don't open their eyes a lesson. Old Xiao, your Xiao family has been entrenched in Qingzhou for many years, as long as you join forces with the Hai family, who would dare to fight the idea of QZ City, what do you say?"

"I see. Xiao Cheng nodded, "Miss Guan wants to win over our Xiao family?"

"Old Xiao, I might as well make it clear, in a few years, the official family will be able to return to its heyday, and at that time, even if your Xiao family wants to tie up our official family, I can't look down on it, you should understand the difference between sending charcoal in the snow and icing on the cake. Moreover, even if you don't agree, some people line up to hug my official's thigh. If it weren't for Quicksand's high opinion of Xiao Lao, I wouldn't have given you this opportunity easily, so you have to think about it carefully. ”

"Don't think about it, since Miss Guan looks up to our Xiao family, my old man is willing to serve the official family. ”

Xiao Cheng agreed very happily, because he knew that this opportunity would not come easily. A big family like this from Kyoto is not something that anyone can climb, if it weren't for the downfall of the official family, how could they give this kind of opportunity to the Xiao family.

In the past few years, the Nanyue Group has been bullied, but the officials have ignored it, which makes everyone mistakenly think that the Hai family has lost its backer. Now, Guan Linglong's appearance in QZ City is tantamount to sending a signal to everyone that the official family has not given up on Nanyue Group.

Not only that, but the official family, which has been silent for several years, has re-emerged.

Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng glanced at the guests present and smiled helplessly. In order to compete for the interests of QZ City, I don't know how many forces are fighting openly and secretly, and now, the sudden appearance of the official family has made everyone's efforts come to naught.
