Chapter 349: The Matter Begins
Liang Lin pursed her lips and replied disappreciatively:
"They're just trying to curry favor with you, Elder Xu!"
Xu Xingkong smiled and shook his head:
"No, it's not that simple, you tell me about the Abe family first. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Liang Lin looked at Xu Xingkong with wide eyes, and said with a look of disbelief:
"Elder Xu, you have to figure it out, I am also a member of the Lai family, and you and I are your undercover agent?"
Xu Xingkong spread his hands with a smile and said:
"No, I treat you as my old colleague, it's normal for colleagues to communicate with each other, besides, Lai Haifeng can let you stay, obviously not worried about you revealing some great secrets, to put it mildly, I'm afraid you can't know anything important." ”
Liang Lin was so angry that her face turned red, but although Xu Xingkong said it was ugly, it was basically the truth, Liang Lin took a deep breath, and tried to face this reality calmly.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaotong glanced at Xu Xingkong, and said with a faint smile to Liang Lin:
"Liang Lin, I believe that with your cleverness, you can definitely see what the Lai family's attitude towards you is now, to put it mildly, now Xu Xingkong is your umbrella, I think you can take advantage of this and strive to take the initiative to change your situation. ”
Liang Lin was stunned when she heard this, looked at Lin Xiaotong in disbelief, and then looked at Xu Xingkong strangely, then frowned and pondered, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Xu Xingkong quietly gave Lin Xiaotong a thumbs up, Lin Xiaotong's words hit the nail on the head, even if Liang Lin was not moved by Lin Xiaotong's words, he must have been touched by these words, not to mention, with Liang Lin's cleverness, how could she not know what consequences Xu Xingkong's counter-trick would bring to her today.
Lai Haifeng didn't say anything when he left, this is clearly a sign that she is ready to give up on Liang Lin, if Liang Lin wants to avoid being retaliated against by the Lai family, relying on Xu Xingkong may be her only choice.
Liang Lin sighed in her heart, as a small person, her fate has never been in her own hands, she and her family are like vines attached to the big tree of the Lai family, and now, it is just a change of attachment to the object, and the character of this object seems to be better than the Lai family, and even the potential is greater than that of the Lai family.
Thinking about it this way, Liang Lin felt that Lin Xiaotong's words were too right, and what was even more interesting was that Lin Xiaotong's words were very well when, she not only reminded herself to face and think about this problem in a timely manner, but also found a good step for Liang Lin to find another high branch, if all this was Lin Xiaotong's intention, this Lin Xiaotong is really powerful, no worse than her genius sister.
Liang Lin glanced at Lin Xiaotong deeply, smiled gratefully, and then looked up at Xu Xingkongdao:
"You want to know about the Abe family and the Lai family?"
"Yes, I always felt that it was not as simple as it seemed. ”
Liang Lin frowned, thought about it, and replied seriously:
"I haven't thought about this issue before, but the relationship between the Lai family and the Abe family is not an overnight thing, but has been quite close as early as twenty or thirty years ago, when the two countries were in the honeymoon period, and the Japanese people entered the mainland of China in a big way to develop, and the Lai family in Xiangjiang naturally became a good springboard. ”
Xu Xingkong nodded and said:
"I know that, I mean, Abe came to me, and it seems a little unusual for them to jump straight to the front desk. ”
"Unusual? When you say this, it reminds me that the Abe family has been very active in Xiangjiang recently, and they have changed their low-key and humble appearance in the past, and they have been somewhat aggressive. ”
Xu Xingkong's eyes lit up, and he leaned forward with great interest and said:
"Oh, tell me what's going on?"
Lin Xiaotong poured Liang Lin a cup of tea, Liang Lin took a grateful smile, took a sip of tea and replied:
In the past, the Abe family would also send people to visit Xiangjiang, but they never visited other families in Xiangjiang with the Lai family, let alone come to Pengcheng with the Lai family to pay respects, not to mention that this time it was the next heir of the Abe family, which seems to indicate that the strategy of the Abe family has changed. ”
Xu Xingkong frowned and thought for a while, in fact, he had never paid much attention to this aspect of information, and now even if Liang Lin provided him with more information, he couldn't analyze the reason, this kind of thing, of course, he still had to find a special person.
Xu Xingkong smiled self-deprecatingly, leaned back on the back of the chair, and said with a relaxed face:
"To be honest, I can't guess what the hell they're up to, but it doesn't matter, someone will pull their skin off. ”
Liang Lin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, was it really just pure curiosity that Xu Xingkong left himself after making trouble for a long time? This guy is too out of tune, he is also a legendary peerless master! But...
"Elder Xu, what Mr. Lin said just now is very right, the current situation of my family and I is quite bad, I think... I don't know if Elder Xu can help me for the sake of my old colleagues. ”
Xu Xingkong smiled and said:
"Of course you can, even if it's just to save the Lai family's face, I will save you and your family, provided that you and your family come to Pengcheng to settle down. ”
Liang Lin bit her lip with some embarrassment when she heard this, and hesitated for a moment before speaking:
"I'm afraid the Lai family may not let us go..."
"Yes, when you go back, you will directly tell Lai Haifeng that you want the whole family to move to Pengcheng, what do you think the Lai family will do?"
"This..."
Liang Lin's face changed a little, isn't this a slap in the face? No matter how good the Lai family is, no matter how afraid of Yushan Yuzhai is, and no matter how much they want to have a good relationship with the real power figures of Yushan Yuzhai in the future, they may not be able to endure this breath, right? At that time, it was himself and his family who would be unlucky, and when he thought of the fate of himself and his family, Liang Lin's face suddenly turned pale.
Lin Xiaotong couldn't help but smile slightly when she saw this, of course she could think of what Liang Lin was worried about, but this was purely a matter of concern, if the Lai family really wanted to retaliate against Liang Lin, even if Liang Lin didn't do anything, just staying today to talk to Xu Xingkong privately, there would already be an excuse for punishment.
Therefore, the stronger Liang Lin is now, the more cautious the Lai family will be, after all, the Lai family can't turn their faces with Yushan Yuzhai now, and even ask for help, in this case, the stronger Liang Lin behaves, the more supporter Xu Xingkong behind her supports her, and the Lai family can't dispose of Liang Lin's family at will.
The Lai family will either grit their teeth and admit it, or they will talk to Xu Xingkong about the conditions, once they come to talk to Xu Xingkong about the conditions, basically Liang Lin's family will be safe.
And Xu Xingkong's purpose is probably to force the Lai family to move as soon as possible, so that it is easier to figure out what the Lai family's purpose is.
Lin Xiaotong was about to open his mouth to remind Liang Lin, who was in fear, but Xu Xingkong gently stretched out his hand and made a gesture to stop Lin Xiaotong's movements, while Xu Xingkong looked at Liang Lin with a smile and fell into a fierce ideological struggle.
It seems that he has struggled in the contradiction for so long for a lifetime, when Liang Lin finally came back from his contemplation, he had unconsciously sweated on his body, and was blown by the air conditioner, feeling a cool air penetrate from his head to the soles of his feet, Liang Lin subconsciously shivered, raised his pale face and looked at Xu Xingkong.
Looking at Liang Lin, who was a lot haggard in an instant, Xu Xingkong didn't have the slightest idea of pity and cherishing jade, he didn't let Lin Xiaotong remind Liang Lin that he didn't have any bad taste, in fact, this cruel choice was equivalent to the existence of a demon, which was a rare tempering for any cultivator.
The so-called plum blossom fragrance comes from the bitter cold, and the big waves wash the sand to see gold, and only by continuous tempering will the cultivator become stronger and stronger.
"Elder Xu, can you let me think about it again?"
Xu Xingkong nodded and replied briskly:
"Of course, the stakes are high, and you can go home and discuss it with your family, but I give you a piece of advice, until you decide, any request to the Lai family should be temporarily denied. ”
"Ahh I understand, thank you, do Elder Xu still have any questions about the Lai family and the Abe family?"
Xu Xingkong nodded with a smile and said:
"Of course there is, come, order food first, let's talk while eating. ”
......
Lin Xiaofeng was a little curious about Xu Xingkong suddenly coming to him at this time, but it seemed that there was more of a happy component.
After hearing about the Lai family, Lin Xiaofeng also became serious, she had much more information than Xu Xingkong, because these things Xu Xingkong didn't like to see, she had to watch them every day.
However, Lin Xiaofeng still can't make a clear judgment on the plans of the Lai family, the Abe family and the Yangcheng Ye family, but she agrees with Xu Xingkong's point of view, this matter is by no means simple, not to mention, the matter also involves the leakage of Xu Xingkong's research project, which makes Lin Xiaofeng even more concerned.
"It's hard for me to judge this matter for a while, so let's do it, you can eat here with me at night, and I'll find someone to discuss after dinner. ”
Of course, Xu Xingkong would not refuse Lin Xiaofeng's invitation, and he was also a little curious about the person Lin Xiaofeng was looking for, because when Lin Xiaofeng mentioned this person, he rarely showed a warm smile.
"Oh, who is it?"
"You'll know when you see it, okay, are you going to eat in the restaurant or do you do it yourself, Elder?"
Xu Xingkong looked at Lin Xiaofeng, who was in good spirits, and said with a smile:
"Of course I'll make it for you, can you make it for me?"
"Huh, can't I make it for you? ”
"That's so happy, but your cooking skills, forget it, you're no better than your sister, but then again, here's the ingredients?"
"There is nothing in the sect's restaurant, you and I borrow the kitchen and materials of the restaurant, can they still disagree?"
"Hehe... yes, let's go, I haven't seen what a restaurant kitchen looks like. ”
Half an hour later, in the compartment on the top floor of the restaurant, Xu Xingkong was already sitting opposite Lin Xiaofeng, and there were several home-cooked dishes carefully prepared by Xu Xingkong on the table in front of him.
Lin Xiaofeng tasted them one by one, although his face was still faint, but his eyes flashed with a faint happiness and joy.
"Well, it's not bad. ”
"It's just good, I think it's made a lot of progress, come, eat more, you need to gain weight, so that you can have children in the future." ”
"You're thinking so far, speaking of which, have you met with my parents these days? Why do they always mention giving birth to me?"
"Ah? Yes? I don't think so, by the way, who is the person you just talked about, is it the person in charge of intelligence analysis in the door, as if you have a good relationship with him?"
For Xu Xingkong's clumsy cover-up, Lin Xiaofeng just sneered, his eyes turned to reveal a look of admiration, and said softly:
"yes, he... Well, you'll find out when you see him later. ”
Xu Xingkong smacked his lips with a dissatisfied face when he saw this, feeling that he seemed to have too much vinegar in his dish!
