Su Xiong's words made Xiao Ping secretly frightened, and he thought that he was going to tell him about Su Chenlin, so he hurriedly smiled reluctantly: "Hehe, Mr. Su, I don't understand what you said!" ”

"Look at a young man with a worse memory than an old man like me!" Su Xiong deliberately made a straight face, and then said with a smile: "Do you remember that at the Lei family's wedding banquet, I said that I wanted to use a set of courtyard houses to exchange a jewelry box with you?" It's been a few months, and you still haven't heard anything from you, what the hell is going on? ”

Hearing what Su Xiong said, it turned out to be this, and Xiao Ping also breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart. It turned out that Su Xiong didn't plan to ask for his daughter's affairs, which was definitely a great thing for Xiao Ping.

While relieved, Xiao Ping was also a little surprised. He always thought that Su Xiong was just talking casually at that time, after all, a set of courtyard houses in the capital was worth a lot of money, and it was too unbelievable that Su Xiong would exchange it for a small jewelry box.

However, Su Xiong repeatedly mentioned this matter, which showed that he was indeed very sincere, which also made Xiao Ping very moved. Perhaps in the eyes of others, a jewelry box carved from a whole piece of agarwood and inlaid with the best black pearls is an unattainable gem, but for Xiao Ping, as long as he asks someone to process it, he can get it. Being able to exchange such a jewelry box for a set of courtyard houses in the capital is undoubtedly very cost-effective for Xiao Ping.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ping did not hesitate, and immediately said to Su Xiong with a smile: "How could I forget the good things I said to Mr. Su, I have been caring about this matter!" ”

Su Xiong asked suspiciously, "Really?" ”

"Of course!" Xiao Ping agreed categorically, and then explained to Su Xiong in detail: "You are a person who knows the goods, so you naturally know that the handiwork of this jewelry box is secondary." The main thing is that the material is difficult to get by. I've been trying to find a way to find materials a while ago, so I haven't contacted you. ”

Of course, Su Xiong knew that what Xiao Ping said was the truth. nodded approvingly, "You're right, has there been any progress so far?" ”

Xiao Ping smiled: "You are lucky. Now I have found a suitable agarwood, and I only waited for the Spring Festival to ask someone to start carving. There are still a few black pearls missing, but there is already news, and I believe we will be able to get them soon! ”

Su Xiong said happily: "This is really good news, Xiao Xiao, you are really young and promising, you can even get such rare materials." ”

Xiao Ping smiled modestly: "I have a few friends over there in Nanyang, and I rely on them to help me in this matter. ”

Now these precious timbers are basically produced in Southeast Asia, and after listening to Xiao Ping's words, Su Xiong also nodded thoughtfully: "I see." And no wonder. When I got this jewelry box, it could be regarded as a dowry for Chenlin. Alas, my precious daughter has a bit of a stubborn temper, and I don't know when I will be able to get married! ”

"Deliberately, this must be deliberate!" Hearing Su Xiong's words, Xiao Ping couldn't help shouting in his heart: "Dude, don't you take this question, whoever picks it up is a fool!" ”

With this thought, Xiao Ping suddenly became like a clay sculpture, firmly closing his mouth and not saying a word. Su Xiong sighed alone for a long time. Seeing that Xiao Ping didn't mean to speak, he finally couldn't help but say to him: "Xiao Xiao, you have a good relationship with Chenlin, haven't you heard her mention these things?" ”

"It's time to come!" Seeing that Su Xiong took the initiative to mention this. Xiao Ping couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

Now Xiao Ping can't pretend to be stupid anymore, so he can only honestly say to Su Xiong: "I won't tell you, Mr. Su." Actually, Miss Su and I ...... Just ordinary friends. There is no relationship like she said at the Lei family's wedding banquet. ”

Xiao Ping finally said this, and then looked at Su Xiong nervously. I thought to myself: "This person shouldn't think that I have abandoned his daughter from the beginning, then it will be bad." Alas. It's still the same sentence, I didn't eat the mutton, and I was ashamed! ”

However, to Xiao Ping's surprise, Su Xiong did not show surprise after listening to his words, but just shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Actually, I have long seen that the girl in Chenlin is using you as a shield, just to let Wang Zhen go." This kid has been stubborn since he was a child, and he will be even more so when he grows up! ”

Su Xiong's words made Xiao Ping breathe a long sigh of relief, and said to Su Xiong with a smile: "Sure enough, it is the daughter Mo Ruo's father, or Mr. Su, you know your daughter!" ”

Listening to Xiao Ping's praise, Su Xiong shook his head with a wry smile and said: "My father is not qualified, when I was a child in Chenlin, I was busy with work all day long, so much so that I ......"

Speaking of this, Su Xiong seemed to be very emotional, stopped and couldn't continue, and was silent for a while before shaking his head and said: "In short, Chenlin's character will become like this, and I have an unshirkable responsibility." ”

Originally, the atmosphere was pretty good, but when it came to this topic, it became a little dull. Xiao Ping didn't know what to say, but he felt that it would be more embarrassing to stay any longer, so he got up and said goodbye to Su Xiong.

Su Xiong didn't keep Xiao Ping either, and personally sent him to the garden gate. Here he stopped and said to Xiao Ping sincerely: "Xiao Xiao, I can see that although Chenlin and you are not lovers, you are definitely her best friend, otherwise this kid would not have pulled you to be a shield." I hope...... No, I ask you, if you can help her if you encounter any difficulties in the future, please give her a helping hand. ”

Since Su Xiong's career has been successful, he has not begged so earnestly as he does now. From him, Xiao Ping could see that a father was deeply worried about his daughter, so he also nodded solemnly: "I promise you, if what you said really happens, I will definitely help Miss Su." ”

"Thank you in advance!" Seeing that Xiao Ping agreed, Su Xiong also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Since Xiao Ping cured Su Chenlin's illness, Su Xiong has looked at this young man differently, feeling that he is the most reliable person for his daughter when she is in trouble in the future, except for himself. Although the two can't be matched, being able to get Xiao Ping's promise is enough to make Su Xiong happy.

Xiao Ping didn't dare to take credit, but smiled at Su Xiong and said, "Thank you, don't thank you." As you said, Miss Su and I are friends, and friends should help each other. ”

"Okay, I'm relieved to have your words!" Su Xiong laughed happily, and then frowned and reminded Xiao Ping: "But you must beware of Wang Zhen, that kid is small and vindictive, you and Chenlin made Wang Zhen lose face at the wedding banquet, he will definitely find a chance to retaliate!"
