"If you're sure I want something, you'll give it to me?" Charlene stared at the majestic-looking old man in front of her with a look of distrust on her face.

Although I don't know if the old man in front of him misunderstood the relationship between himself and Chu Ci, so he would "compensate" himself for the promise of a condition, but obviously Charlene didn't want to let go of this opportunity at all.

It doesn't matter what the reason is or what is behind it, Charlene only needs to know the part related to herself.

It's just that others may have a little more respect and fear for him because of his age and high position, and they also have a little more trust, but Charlene won't.

Experience told her that the older the person, the more cunning the spokesperson is, and even turning his hands into clouds and covering his hands into rain is just easy.

Not to mention that the person in front of him is still the head of the dignified Chu family, which ordinary people can deserve? At least Charlene doesn't think she's that capable.

Moreover, for no reason, pie will not fall from the sky.

"Of course," Chu Qinglan is such a character, how could she not see what kind of ghost idea the little girl in front of her was thinking in her head?

It's just that although he can't believe that the girl in front of him is the woman that his grandson has been thinking about for so long day and night, but the other party is a girl, which is much better than a baby, plus what Elder Huangfu said, the other party is the key to his grandson's life and death catastrophe, so when he treats Xia Lin, he has a little more tolerance and connivance.

Of course, it's only a few points, but it's impossible to have more. And it is not so easy for him to accept Charlene, a "vulgar and ignorant village girl from the countryside", from the bottom of his heart.

After all, their Chu family is a super family with a thousand-year-old inheritance, and the granddaughter-in-law of the Chu family, even if it is only a possible granddaughter-in-law, is not something that anyone can bear.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come out today.

However, the little girl in front of her seems to be not very interested in her grandson, who is regarded as the dream lover by countless women in the Federation.

Even according to the news from his subordinates, if it weren't for his grandson who has been trapping people around, maybe this unusually slippery girl would have slipped away a long time ago.

If it weren't for the conclusive evidence of this matter, Chu Qinglan would never believe it at all.

What kind of character is his grandson, will he not know?

There are few women in the entire federation who can make him really give a good face.

Not to mention, it is said that Charlene has glared at Chu Ci more than once recently.

But unfortunately, he didn't get to see it once. Although Chu Ci said that it was because Xia Lin had been extremely unstable recently, and it seemed that it was time to inject the gene stabilization potion, Chu Qinglan still felt very novel.

What's even more surprising is that Chu Ci actually endured it every time! It's nothing short of miraculous.

can only say, maybe this is what Elder Huangfu said, the fate in the underworld, even if they don't recognize or remember each other, they can still be entangled.

"Are you sure you won't go back on whatever I say?" Charlene asked tightly.

"Once the word is spoken, the horse is hard to chase." Chu Qinglan promised very simply.

He really wanted to see what Charlene would ask. Of course, I was also very much looking forward to the reaction of a certain bastard outside the door who rushed back from the barracks in a hurry as soon as he heard that he was going to meet this little girl alone.

"I want a new identity." Charlene's eyes rolled, and she immediately had an idea. "A new identity that no one knows, including you. I also want you to let me go, don't follow me, don't investigate, and ensure that Chu Ci won't be investigated. ”

Chu Qinglan's brows moved slightly, and she was surprised that Xia Lin actually made such a completely unexpected, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to have traces to follow. "Why?"

He originally thought that according to Xia Lin's background and the current situation of the Xia family, even if she didn't slaughter a lot of money, she would at least propose something that would be helpful to the revival of the Xia family. But what this girl wants......

"You don't believe me?" Chu Qinglan looked at Xia Lin with a somewhat unhappy expression. He can tolerate Charlene's presumptuousness, after all, the other party is just a junior, and he is just a child, but it does not mean that he can tolerate being questioned by a junior repeatedly.

"It's not." Charlene shook her head very sincerely, "I really only need this. ”

"You don't want a great fortune?" Chu Qinglan looked at Xia Lin with scrutinizing eyes, "The Chu family's strength and financial resources in the Federation, I think you should already know something." ”

Xia Lin nodded, indeed, she was already in the Chu family, how could she not inquire about the identity and background of the Chu family? "I don't think anyone in this world is too rich," Charlene blinked, "but I'm just a weak woman, and I still know the truth of guilt." ”

She has enough secrets of her own, and keeping a low profile is the royal way to survival.

"Oh?" Chu Qinglan looked at Xia Lin with a slight surprise, and then chuckled, "You are self-aware." ”

Charlene nodded unashamedly, "Of course! "If she didn't have enough self-knowledge, she would have ten hearts and eyes, and she wouldn't be dead enough in the last days.

After all, those who can go all the way down in the last days, which one is not a scheming guy? She didn't think she was any smarter than anyone else. It's just that most of those people were blinded by interests, so she fished in troubled waters.

"But as far as I know, your Xia family's current situation seems to be very bad, as a member of the Xia family, don't you want to restore the Xia family?" Chu Qinglan asked with a somewhat cold expression.

"Those have nothing to do with me." When she said this, Charlene's expression was a little strange, but in the end she said coldly. "I'm just a weak woman who has no powers, even in the Xia family, I'm useless except for being used to marry, and revitalizing the family is not something I can do."

Hearing this, Chu Qinglan frowned.

This kid seems to be even more indifferent than he thought. To be honest, it disliked him a lot.

How much loyalty and even faith can you expect from a person who doesn't have a family in her heart, or even doesn't care about the survival of her family at all?

Although Chu Qinglan didn't want Xia Lin to take the Xia family too seriously, and she could understand that what happened to Xia Lin in the Xia family had caused her a lot of harm, but her attitude was obviously unlikeable.

Although he didn't mind Charlene's identity, he obviously didn't want to raise a white-eyed wolf. The Chu family's great cause is true, but this business has also been accumulated by their ancestors for generations, and it cannot be defeated in the hands of their descendants.

I don't know if I can see Chu Qinglan's displeasure, Xia Lin thought about it and said again, "Although some things are a little unpleasant to say, if a family can only survive by relying on the support and relief of others, how long can this family last?" ”

The so-called just needs an opportunity for development or something, Xia Lin doesn't believe it, but she doesn't think that the Xia family's affairs are so simple.

Although the Xia family is now in a state of despair, after all, it was once brilliant, and it is also a family that has been inherited for thousands of years. Even after several twists and turns, even their current branch is no longer a descendant, but the family background is still there. If they are really willing to leak out their family background, they can't lack people who are willing to support.

What the Xia family lacked was never money and support.

Or rather, in Charlene's opinion, not. Even if the Xia family has the support of the Yu family and becomes a vassal of the Yu family, there will be no real strong and excellent heirs among the descendants, and the Xia family will not be able to escape the fate of destruction.

And today's Xia family is in such a situation.

There are only two outstanding juniors in the Xia family's generation, a genius girl Xia Lin has been sacrificed by Xia Zhentian. And another genius young man who is said to be excellent and rigorous since he was a child, and has the demeanor of everyone, Xia Mingyu, is still unknown what kind of mess he will take over.

But obviously evaluating Xia Mingyu's strength alone and wanting to turn the tide is tantamount to a fool's dream.

However, although Xia Lin didn't understand why Xia Zhentian and his ancestors would rather choose that way, they would rather pay a big price than ask for help from these families, and they couldn't even understand what Xia Zhentian did, and they couldn't agree with it and were unwilling to sacrifice, but she was at least able not to drag her feet.

She is not a descendant of the Xia family, but she also uses the body of other people's descendants, right?

Chu Qinglan looked at Xia Lin with some surprise.

It's not that Charlene's remarks are unexpected, it's just that it's rare that Charlene can actually see through this matter.

"Moreover, before I left, the head of the Xia family also said that my relationship with the Xia family has been broken in the future, and the rise and fall of the Xia family has nothing to do with me."

Of course, Xia Zhentian's original words are naturally not like this, and the content is not only these, but it is not wrong to explain it in such a sense.

"Really?" Chu Qinglan looked at Xia Lin with some surprise.

He didn't know that. However, in this way, Xia Lin and the Xia family in Panyu City can be regarded as completely separated......

Chu Qinglan suddenly understood what Xia Zhentian meant.

That man was planning to divide Xia Lin and Xia Mingyu into two teams.

In this way, even if the Xia family in Panyu City is really gone, as long as Xia Lin marries a good enough child of a family, their Xia family's bloodline and abilities can be passed on, or even better.

After all, with Charlene's ability gene, even in Mingyang City, there is definitely no shortage of coveted families.

And the people of their clan, in order to pass on the family's ability, I don't know how many times they have divided the clan for thousands of years. Like the Xia family this time, it can only be said that it is very ordinary.

Thinking like this, Chu Qinglan didn't have the anger she had before, but looked at Xia Lin's gaze a little more thoughtfully. R1152
