Chapter 329: Strength Reigns Supreme
When Tang Chen walked out of the room, he found that Zhao Xiaoshi was already sitting on the sofa in the living room, she was holding her chin with one hand, staring intently at the TV, but Tang Chen knew that her mind was not on it at all.
"Senior sister, aren't you a little nervous?" Tang Chen walked up to her and sat down, and said with a smile. I just learned so much news, which is definitely a big shock for a little girl who is less than fourteen years old. Now that she can be so calm on the surface, it is already commendable.
Zhao Xiaoshi turned her head and glanced at Tang Chen, and continued to be in a daze.
......Seeing that he was completely ignored, Tang Chen was a little speechless. But he also knew that she wanted to be quiet now, so he didn't plan to "provoke" her.
Time passed slowly, and I don't know how long it took, Li Xiangqin walked out of the room with a bag. Seeing that Tang Chen and the two of them were sitting in the living room in a daze, they couldn't help but joke: "When can you two stay together so quietly?" ”
In Li Xiangqin's impression, as long as these two people have the opportunity, they either joke with each other or keep bickering. She had never seen such a quiet time together.
"What, Aunt Li, look at what you said, it seems that I am not compatible with my senior sister! Okay, now that Aunt Li is out, aren't they almost there? Tang Chen glanced at Zhao Xiaoshi with some embarrassment, and seeing that she didn't react, he stood up and touched his nose and asked.
"Well, yes, Xiaoqian called just now and said that they will be there in a while, let's prepare to go down!" Li Xiangqin's face was straight, and she gave Zhao Xiaoshi a stable look.
Seeing that Zhao Xiaoshi seemed to be a little uneasy, Li Xiangqin walked over and held her hand, and said with a smile: "Don't have any burden, there is a mother here!" ”
Hearing this, the tension in Zhao Xiaoshi's heart finally disappeared. yes, as long as my mother is around, what else do I have to worry about!
"Let's go!" Li Xiangqin saw that Zhao Xiaoshi finally relaxed, and no longer rubbed, and walked out directly.
The three of them went down to the door of the hotel, although it was already past six o'clock, and the night had just darkened, but the door of the hotel was already brightly lit. Through the light, they saw a black Audi parked not far away, with a Guicheng government license plate, and they didn't have to think about it to know whose car it was.
The three of them walked towards the car, and the people in the car seemed to see them, and the first to get down was Zhao Xiaoqian, who sat down in the co-pilot. As soon as she got out of the car, she waved her hand and said hello: "Aunt Li, Xiaoshi, Tang Chen, this way!" ”
As soon as Zhao Xiaoqian finished saying hello, the doors of the back seat opened separately, and Zhao Wenyu and Xi Jingxiang walked down from the car respectively. The last one to come down was Zhao Xiaorong who was sitting in the cab, and she usually played a cameo role as the driver at a family dinner like this.
Seeing Zhao Wenyu and Xi Jingxiang who got out of the car, Li Xiangqin's pupils shrank slightly, but they instantly returned to normal. Although I have been prepared for a long time, when I really face it, there is still a trace of waves in my heart.
Tang Chen, who was walking behind, was a little excited at this time, the middle-aged man who was looking over in the distance was indeed someone who often appeared on TV in his previous life. Looking at his appearance, it is indeed very similar to the photo of Zhao Wenhao he has seen, but it is relatively mature. No wonder Li Xiangqin will have a sense of familiarity with Zhao Xiaoqian at the first time!
Tang Chen suddenly found that Zhao Xiaoshi, who was originally walking side by side with Li Xiangqin, somehow slowly fell behind. And Li Xiangqin, who was paying attention to Zhao Wenyu not far away, didn't notice this immediately.
He knew that Zhao Xiaoshi should have been a little overwhelmed by the relative who suddenly appeared not far away. It's not that he was scared, but Zhao Wenyu looks very similar to Zhao Wenhao. He appeared in front of Zhao Xiaoshi so suddenly, it's no wonder she didn't panic!
Tang Chen stepped forward and reached out to hold her little hand, and suddenly felt it, her body was trembling slightly.
It seems that this third uncle, who looks very similar to Zhao Wenhao, really gave her a big impact. Also, Zhao Wenhao loved Zhao Xiaoshi so much before his death, and the relationship between their father and daughter cannot be described in words. His unexpected death was like the sky had fallen for Zhao Xiaoshi.
Finally, Zhao Xiaoshi walked out of the shadows with a strong will. But now, there is such a relative, and he is still a relative who is very similar to Zhao Wenhao, which must be uncomfortable!
"Relax, it's all over! Let me protect you and Aunt Li in the future! Tang Chen leaned into Zhao Xiaoshi's ear and said softly. The sound is not loud, but it is sonorous and powerful!
Zhao Xiaoshi turned her head and glanced at the boy next to her, who was only a little taller than herself, and suddenly felt a sense of unprecedented security in her heart. That small figure suddenly became extremely tall!
"Cut, how old are you? Still protecting us? We're pretty much protecting you! Although Zhao Xiaoshi was extremely moved in her heart, the warm feeling that kept coming from her hand gradually smoothed out, and Zhao Wenyu brought her restlessness. But as a senior sister, how could she show weakness in front of her juniors! Especially, in front of this big bastard whom she doesn't like so much!
"That's what Senpai said! Hey! Tang Chen just wanted to expel the uneasiness in Zhao Xiaoshi's heart, and now that the goal had been achieved, of course he wouldn't bother with this "dead duck with a hard mouth"!
At this moment, Zhao Xiaoshi didn't shake off Tang Chen's hand, so this guy didn't think there was such a thing, and took the weak and boneless little hand and followed closely behind Li Xiangqin.
Soon the three of them came to Zhao Wenyu and the others. Li Xiangqin looked deeply at Zhao Wenyu and Xi Jingxiang who were standing together, and the two of them also looked deeply at Li Xiangqin. Neither of them spoke, but the complicated expressions in the eyes of both sides were worth a thousand words.
"Third brother, Sister Shizuka, I haven't seen you for many years, are you okay?" Li Xiangqin first broke the silence and spoke.
"Xueqing, I didn't expect that more than ten years have passed since I said goodbye in the blink of an eye! After so many years, we are all old, and the only thing that remains unchanged is that you are still so young and beautiful! Xi Jingxiang took a step forward and took Li Xiangqin's hand, very embarrassed.
"Sister Shizuka, don't make fun of me! After more than ten years of living incognito, I almost forgot my original name! A trace of imperceptible sadness flashed on Li Xiangqin's face.
Tang Chen was a little surprised in his heart, he didn't expect the name "Li Xiangqin" to be true! Xue Qing? It turns out that her real name is Li Xueqing! He turned his head and glanced at Zhao Xiaoshi, and found that her face was also a little surprised, and it could be judged that she didn't know either.
"Xueqing, I haven't seen you for fifteen years, I didn't expect you to recognize me as a third brother?" Zhao Wenyu, who had not spoken, finally spoke.
"What are you talking about, third brother! Since you are Wen Hao's third brother, no matter how long time passes, you will always be my third brother! Li Xiangqin's face was straight, and he said very seriously.
"Oh? Do you really think so? Zhao Wenyu looked at Li Xiangqin. Although his face is calm, the momentum of his body that is not angry and self-threatening is still very intimidating.
"Of course!" Li Xiangqin also looked calm, and then pointed to the two people standing behind her: "By the way, let me introduce you to you, this is my daughter Zhao Xiaoshi, and the other is my nephew Tang Chen." Well, Xiaoshi and Tang Chen, don't hurry up and say hello to the two elders! ”
"Hello third uncle and third aunt!" Tang Chen and Zhao Xiaoshi hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.
Now he didn't know what to call them, so he could only call them with Zhao Xiaoshi. Fortunately, the hands of the two had been separated at this time, otherwise Zhao Xiaoshi would have to dig a hole and bury herself in it.
"Well, hello, no need to be polite!" Zhao Wenyu and Xi Jingxiang didn't care about these things. They looked at the two of them carefully, and although they had already seen the photos, they felt very different when they saw the real person at the moment.
Take Zhao Xiaoshi as an example, she has a seven-point similar appearance to Li Xiangqin, and it is quite impactful to look at it up close. They seem to have seen that a few years later, another "No. 1 beauty in Beijing" will be the same as when she is glamorous.
Of course, their gaze also stayed on Tang Chen for a while. They are still very interested in this boy whom Li Xiangqin calls his nephew. Li Xiangqin's background is clear to them better than anyone else, and it is impossible for her to have such a nephew.
It's not someone from the Li family, it's not someone from their Zhao family, that's the person I met here. But don't say it's the town she is in, even Guicheng, and there are few juniors who can enter his vision.
This brother-in-law's vision is higher than his, but she seems to have a good eye on this little boy. Not long ago, from Zhao Xiaoqian's narrative, he was still a little unconvinced. But from the way she looked at the little boy just now, Zhao Wenyu saw endless confidence and trust in it.
This discovery made Zhao Wenyu a little moved. Xi Jingxiang, who was close at hand, naturally discovered this, so her mind was similar to Zhao Wenyu's, and she wanted to see something from Tang Chen's body.
"Hmm~ I'll introduce you too! This is Zhao Xiaoqian, you must be familiar with it. As for this, she is Xiaoqian's sister, Zhao Xiaorong! Xi Jingxiang looked at Tang Chen for a while, and found that she couldn't see anything at all, so she pointed to the two people standing behind her and introduced it.
"Xiaoqian's sister?" Hearing Xi Jingxiang say this, Li Xiangqin, Tang Chen, and Zhao Xiaoshi couldn't help but cast their eyes on Zhao Xiaorong.
"Although she is not our biological child, she grew up with Xiaoqian since she was a child, and she is no different from her biological one!" Seeing that the three of them looked a little puzzled, Xi Jingxiang leaned over and explained in a whisper.
"Oh~" The three of them suddenly moved. But Tang Chen knew that it was not so simple, when he was in Daxu Ancient Town in the morning, he felt a vague gaze peeping at them. This is not one of those "bodyguards" that he has already discovered, she seems to be hiding deeply. Tang Chen also tried to find out for her, but she never succeeded.
But judging from the current situation, the master hidden in the depths of Daxu Ancient Town should be this Zhao Xiaorong.
In some large families, they will adopt some orphans, first cultivate a relationship with their future "master" from an early age, and when they grow up, they will be sent to the devil for training. When I return from school, I will always stay by the "master".
Zhao Xiaorong was such a master, Tang Chen couldn't help but look at her a few more times after everyone had greeted her.
……
"Hmph, big pervert!"
At this moment, the group was walking towards a restaurant called Jinlongzhai not far away. After all, Zhao Wenyu's identity is more sensitive, and it is still not suitable to go to a five-star hotel to eat.
It was Xi Jingxiang just now, everyone don't stand at the door of the hotel to chat, anyway, it's not early, it's better to chat while eating.
Of course, everyone had no opinion, so the group left the door of the hotel, planning to go to Jinlongzhai not far away to eat. This restaurant also has many branches in Guicheng, because the price is right, the taste is also good, so many government officials in Guicheng still prefer to go to Jinlongzhai to eat.
Tang Chen guessed Zhao Xiaorong's identity, so he couldn't help but glance at her a few more times along the way. Who knew that this was discovered by the sharp-eyed Zhao Xiaoshi, no matter how thick-skinned he was, there were so many outsiders at the moment, and he was also a little blushing.
"Senior sister, you can't talk nonsense, why am I a pervert?" Zhao Xiaoshi came to him just now and said it, and the two of them hung at the back again, so no one else heard her words just now, otherwise Tang Chen would not have blushed as a blushing face.
At this moment, Tang Chen leaned into her ear to speak again, looking at it like this, it seemed that the two of them had gotten together and whispered something.
"Hmph, I'm too lazy to talk to you!" Zhao Xiaoshi felt itchy at the root of her ears, and in front of outsiders, she was still very uncomfortable with Tang Chen being so close. So she glared at him, caught up with Zhao Xiaoqian in front of her, and chatted with her.
Looking at the Golden Dragon Village not far ahead, Tang Chen felt a little emotional. The price is not very outrageous, and the environment is not bad, he has been to many times in his previous life. However, in his previous life, he always came to eat with his classmates and friends, but today, he came to eat with Guicheng's leader. The gap is ...... Of course, now he has the light of Li Xiangqin, but one day, he doesn't need to rely on others, he is still qualified. Moreover, Tang Chen firmly believes that this day is not far away!
"Secretary Zhao......"
"Lao Zheng, today I came to invite some friends to dinner in private, so there is no need to be formal!"
As soon as the group walked into Jinlong Village, a fat man in his forties with a big beer belly greeted him with a smile on his face, obviously hearing something.
"Yes! Xiao Wang, take Secretary Zhao and others to Box No. 1! The man surnamed Zheng nodded and waved to a waiter on the side.
Tang Chen is not surprised by this kind of thing, the boss of Jinlongzhai may have a few dollars, but in Zhao Wenyu's eyes, he can't get on the stage at all. So the fat man, in front of Zhao Wenyu, looked so groveling. (To be continued.) )
