Hearing Du Ruolin's words, Li Changjing was even more puzzled, and couldn't help asking: "What does it mean that the Xu Huo family is difficult to protect themselves?" ”

"It's literal." Du Ruolin looked at him and said with a smile: "Changjing, I didn't expect you to be so powerful, the name of the Evergreen Pharmacy is in the cultivation circle of Daye City, but it is in full swing...... It's just that I heard that your shop has always maintained neutrality, so it shouldn't have anything to do with the Seven Great Families, right? ”

Li Changjing frowned, Du Ruolin's words obviously had a special meaning in them, similar to a warning.

He was delicate and did not answer this question, but changed the topic and asked, "Miss Du, I don't know how many industries your Du family has in Daye City now?" ”

Du Ruolin pondered for a moment and replied, "I haven't calculated the exact amount, but in a quarter of the entire Daye City, our family has dabbled in it." By the way, the center of Seremban, where your shop is located, is now also our property. ”

"I see." Li Changjing nodded, although he was not too shocked in his heart, but it was a little strange, the northwest is notoriously low GDP, in his impression, the Zhang, Du, and Liu families are not rich families, and the Du family is still at the bottom of the level, why has there been such a big change after coming to Daye City, and dare to say that even a quarter of the area has been involved? Among the seven major families in Daye City, only the Xu family and the Huo family are afraid that they have the confidence to say such things, right?

"Miss Xie Du solves the puzzle." Li Changjing put on his coat and planned to say goodbye and go back.

"Changjing, let me tell you something." Before going out, Du Ruolin looked at Li Changjing's eyes and said softly: "Everyone and friends, so I want to invite your pharmacy to settle in our Du family and become a strategic partner with us, I don't know what you think?" ”

"Miss Du, I think there are a lot of things that need to be improved in your hot pot restaurant." Li Changjing didn't seem to hear her words, glanced at the few clerks in the store who had become submissive, and muttered: "There is no problem with the environment, but the quality of the clerks is too poor, and the service in the catering industry is the most important, what do you think?" There is also a side dish, try to use fresh, after all, only the quality of the food is passable, can you retain guests, right? ”

Du Ruolin glanced at him, as smart as her, she naturally knew that Li Changjing didn't want to talk about this matter, sighed, and said softly: "I understand the truth, but I can't hide it, now Daye City is mixed, there are many cultivators, and there are often many people who deliberately make trouble come to eat, and it is really helpless to hire cultivators to be clerks." As for the quality of the side dishes...... I did it on purpose, anyway, this store doesn't expect to make money, purely to disgust those troublemakers. ”

Li Changjing sighed, and said in his heart that this was the case, but it was his own nosy.

"Changjing, you honestly tell me the truth." Du Ruolin smiled and said, "I heard that you have been in the north for more than two months, what kind of strength is it now?" She looked Li Changjing up and down, and said in surprise: "Why don't you have any Yuan Force breath on your body, is it because the realm is too high?" ”

Li Changjing smiled and said half-truthfully: "Where is there anything too high, it's still the same as when I was in the northwest before, just out of the ordinary." However, I have some means of hiding my breath, and others can't see the clues. ”

Du Ruolin nodded thoughtfully, and oh.

It's just that the clerks behind him have already broken out in a cold sweat, this kid in his early twenties is actually out of the ordinary? My God, I should be very glad that I wanted to go up and do something with someone just now, and I wasn't slapped to death.

"Huh? Miss Du, have you also reached the realm of escape? Li Changjing glanced at Du Ruolin and was surprised.

At Xu Huairou's birthday banquet last year, she was really second-order, and when she reunited in the northwest, she was really third-order, but I didn't expect that it had only been more than two months, and she was already out of the ordinary, this talent was really amazing. However, Du Ruolin had an indescribable aura on her body, which was both strange and familiar, which made Li Changjing feel a little uncomfortable.

Du Ruolin smiled and said: "Now there are many masters in Daye City who even have half-step immortals, what's so strange about the Mortal Realm?" ”

Li Changjing only thought that she was laughing and saying goodbye politely, and then walked forward along the bustling flow of people.

Every time he comes back from a long trip, Li Changjing will have different feelings, after experiencing too many thrills and escaping death, he has become more yearning for a quiet and peaceful life, and hopes that when he returns to Daye City this time, he can always be with the person he likes, and he doesn't have to go anywhere.

Approaching half past four in the afternoon, the sun had begun to turn west, Li Changjing bought more than a dozen catties of fruits and some gifts on the street, and entered the center of Furong in a hurry, but when he saw the familiar Changqing shop, he found that on the glass door outside the shop, there was a sign of "No visitors", and occasionally a few cultivators with a long breath passed by, as if they wanted to go in to buy medicine, but when they saw the sign, they walked away silently.

"What's going on?" Li Changjing faintly felt that something was wrong, it was not dark yet, it was the best time for business, why did the shop close?

He walked up with fruit gifts, gently pushed open the door, and found that there were five or six people sitting in the hospitality room on the left side of the hall.

Li Changjing knocked on the glass door.

Lin Jia looked up, stunned for a moment, surprised and delighted, trotted up to meet him, and stretched out his hand to pick up his things.

"No, these things are heavy." Li Changjing was still carrying things by himself, and found that after Lin Jia saw him, his tense face instantly relaxed, but his eyes were red, and he looked like he wanted to cry.

"Don't worry, I'm back." Li Changjing realized the seriousness of the problem, took Lin Jia's hand to the side, sat down with several salesmen, and put the fruits and gifts on it by the way, signaling them to eat them by themselves and not to be restrained.

"Store manager, you're back." There was a crying salesman sobbing, his delicate face full of grievances, and he choked up: "If it is a few days later, our store may close down." ”

"Xiaotong, don't talk nonsense, the store manager has just come back, let him rest for two days first." Lin Jia glanced at the salesman.

Li Changjing waved his hand, signaling that it was okay, and asked Xiaotong to continue.

But Lin Jia, as the deputy store manager, usually stays in the store, and the deterrent power of the employees below is naturally higher than that of Li Changjing, who is away all the year round, the clerk has calmed down after eating Lin Jia, shook his head and said: "It's nothing, the store manager, you just came back, go and rest first." ”

Li Changjing sighed, and then stopped pressing, looked up at the hall, and frowned: "What about Qingtan and Lu Li?" ”

"Mr. Lu has something to go out, and he may not come back until the evening." Lin Jia hesitated, "As for Sister Qingtan...... She's in it. Lin Jia pointed to the office behind him.

"Okay, I'll go find her now." Li Changjing gave Lin Jia a look and motioned her to appease the salesmen's emotions, Lin Jia nodded slightly and gave a "reassuring" look.

Li Changjing put his mind at ease, left the hospitality area, slowly came to the door of the office, and knocked lightly.

"Come in."

A familiar and melodious voice came from inside.

Li Changjing was a little excited.

He gently pushed open the door and found that the light was on inside, and a tall and soft figure was sitting at a computer desk in the distance, with his back to him.

"Qingtan?" Li Changjing shouted.

The figure froze for a moment and didn't look back, but the voice was very surprised, "Changjing, are you back?" ”

"I just arrived." Li Changjing was a little strange, closed the door, walked up slowly, and said softly: "What are you doing, why don't you look at me?" ”

"Why, I'm busy." Liu Qingtan hurriedly leaned down and wrote and drew on the table.

Li Changjing came to her and found that she was busy, just scribbling on paper with a pen, and what was even more strange was that she was wearing a blue veil on her face, and her eyes were clearly dodging when she looked at it from the side.

"Get up." Li Changjing grabbed her hand and pulled her up from the seat, Liu Qingtan was flustered and wanted to break free, but Li Changjing wrapped his right hand around her slender willow waist and clamped it tightly, making her unable to move.

"Don't move." Li Changjing raised his left hand, put it behind Qingtan's ear, and gently tore it to remove the veil from her face.

Almost instantly, Li Changjing's face changed.

From gloomy to iron-blue, and from iron-green back to gloomy.

The skin between the eyebrows was tightly wrinkled, and the green tendons on his forehead were bare, like a lion about to go berserk in anger.

I saw that Qingtan's original jade-white left face was covered with a dark red and somewhat purple slap print, and the force used was so great that half of her face was swollen, I don't know if it was the cause of nerve damage, even the eyes were bloodshot, the lips were slightly bruised, and the ears were all red, and they were all red to the neck.

Liu Qingtan hugged him violently, hugged him tightly, and said urgently: "Don't be angry, I'm fine, it doesn't hurt at all, I'm already very happy when you come back!" ”

Li Changjing hugged her back, only to feel that there was an anger in his heart that went straight up, almost unable to suppress it, he could only breathe hard to calm his emotions.

He looked at his trembling hands, and there was indescribable guilt in his heart.

He felt that he was often away from home, and he was away for months or even half a year, and he rarely even called back because of the signal.

But Qingtan stayed at home, but he did everything, the houses in the town, the shops in Daye City, everything was in order. In the face of so many cumbersome procedural reports, purchase and purchase, employee salary calculation and adjustment, queue up to the relevant departments to stamp, etc., etc., any of which is maddening enough, but she has never complained or complained to him.

The personality is not strong, polite and gentle, such a good Qingtan, why is she still beaten, and it is still injured on the face, so she has to wear a veil to show people!

Li Changjing felt that this was his fault.

If he was at home, if he was by Qingtan's side, then none of this would have happened.

"I'm damned." Li Changjing clenched his fists and popped out these words from his teeth.

"I'm fine." Qingtan let go of him, gently stroked his fine bangs, and said softly: "Now that Daye City is very chaotic, no one can be left alone, my small injuries are nothing, you can come back, the crisis of the shop is still waiting for you to solve it." ”

Li Changjing shook his head, took out a Yanyang Pill from his sleeve bag, fed it to her, and then motioned for her to sit next to her, gently put his palm on her face, and began to mobilize the Yuan Force in her body.

After a while, Qingtan frowned, as if she was in some pain, and Li Changjing had to be more cautious, and gently invaded her skin with wisps of Yuan Li.

After a while, most of Qingtan's originally red and swollen left face disappeared, and the slap print disappeared directly, leaving only some slight crimson, which looked like a mosquito bite, much better than before.

Qingtan is now a cultivator, and the warm feeling on her body makes her know that the pill she took just now must be very precious, so she is a little distressed, and looks at Li Changjing, with a strange meaning in her eyes.

Li Changjing laughed, "It's just a second-order Yanyang Pill, even if there are ten thousand, it can't match the face of my family's Qingtan." ”

Qing Tan was so ashamed that he hammered him with his fist.

Li Changjing guessed that after combing with his own Yuan Force, in another night, the injuries on Qingtan's face should be all healed, so he put his mind at ease, sat on the sofa with Qingtan, and asked her what happened in Daye City during this time?

Qingtan was silent for a moment, her expression became a little serious, and she whispered, "Changjing, no matter what I say next, don't be surprised." ”

Li Changjing was shocked in his heart, Qingtan has good experience and knowledge, even she said so, then something very terrible must have happened in Daye City.
