Chapter 20: Suspicion
After the martial fight, Xu Qiming kept Wang Yuan's position, and before Xu Qiming killed Wang Jinliang, Wang Lie left, he would not protect his son, and he also did not want to see him killed in person.
Even if Wang Jinliang survived, the Wang family would not be able to tolerate him.
And Xu Qiming originally wanted to go to Wang Yuan, but was surrounded by his friends and family.
Especially Xu Huijun and Bai Xiaomo stuck to him like two kittens.
"Brother, you are so amazing!" Xu Huijun said, with little stars in her big eyes, like a little fan girl.
"Brother Qiming, you are my idol!" Bai Xiaomo jumped up and down, and shouted happily: "Let's go out and play!"
"This..."Xu Qiming didn't know what to do, and subconsciously looked at Xu Tiankai and Bai Yuexi not far away.
I saw that they gave themselves a supportive look at the same time, and then gave a thumbs up in unison.
"That's... Let's go out and play together..."Xu Qiming had a black line, "Brother Chen, Xiaoxue, you can come together." ”
"I, my brother invited, of course we are going!" Since helping Chen Yifei solve the trouble last time, Chen Yifei has been better to Xu Qiming, in his opinion, Xu Qiming even did not hesitate to offend the Tang family for himself, which was enough for him to treat him sincerely.
"I heard that Jianghai Restaurant has a new dish, why don't we go there and celebrate!" Chen Xue clapped her hands and said.
It was already noon, and the people's stomachs were rumbling with hunger.
"Okay, I'll have a treat, let's go..."Xu Qiming said, causing the four of them to cheer, especially Bai Xiaomo, she rarely goes out, and now Bai Yuexi allows her to go out with Xu Qiming, so she is naturally very happy.
"There are still dozens of taels of gold, one meal should be enough..."Xu Qiming thought secretly.
At this time, Chen Yifei pulled Xu Qiming aside and stuffed a silver ticket of 100 taels to Xu Qiming.
"Brother Qiming, you take this money, this is what I usually save, less of it, you should be in an emergency. Chen Yifei said.
"It's okay Brother Chen, I have money, you better take it back. Xu Qiming was moved in his heart, but he still gave it back to Chen Yifei.
"Alright then, if you don't have enough money, come to me. Chen Yifei saw that Xu Qiming shirked it, and persuaded him a few more times, but when he saw that Xu Qiming didn't accept it, he had to take it back and said.
"Don't worry, let's go..."Xu Qiming said, and got into the carriage left by Bai Yuexi with Chen Yifei.
At this time, in the stands...
"The children are so lively..."Bai Yuexi said, she was also relieved to hand over Bai Xiaomo to Xu Qiming, after all, she was Wang Yuan's staff, and she was very steady.
"yes, it's good to be young. Xu Tiankai sat in the stands and nodded.
"I'm afraid it's better when my predecessors are young, right?" Bai Yuexi came coldly and looked at Xu Tiankai with a smile.
"Oh, what are you talking about?" Xu Tiankai heard this and looked at Bai Yuexi.
"I heard that my Bai family was another fierce rival of the Meng family in Longhai County, in the snowy night of one year, a martial artist came to the Meng family's manor, he killed many masters of the Meng family in a row, and finally took away the daughter of Meng Yanting, the head of the Meng family, and returned to Jianghai County, this person seems to be surnamed Xu..."
"Hehe... Madam said with a smile, Tiankai is just a martial artist, and the person you are talking about is a martial artist. Xu Tiankai replied, without a little wave on his face.
"......" Bai Yuexi stared at Xu Tiankai tightly for a long time, and then saw that he couldn't find a flaw, so he chuckled: "That's right, maybe I was wrong." ”
With that, Bai Yuexi stepped lightly on the lotus step and gracefully left the long empty stands.
And Xu Tiankai didn't speak, his eyes looked into the distance very deeply, not knowing what he was thinking.
......
Besides, Xu Qiming and the five people, they took a carriage to the Jianghai Restaurant in the Central District, although this is the territory of the City Lord's Mansion, but as long as Xu Qiming and they don't make trouble, the people of the City Lord's Mansion will not trouble them.
At this time, the Jianghai Restaurant is like a market, because it is noon, many people come to eat, because this place is in a good location, and it is famous, so many rich people come back to eat.
"Wow, what a tall building!" Bai Xiaomo didn't have a little bit of a young lady's shelf, she didn't despise Xu Qiming and the four of them because of their low status, but played with them very friendly, she looked at the nine-story restaurant and asked curiously.
"Yes, hasn't Xiaomo been here?" Xu Qiming took her little hand and asked rhetorically.
"Yes, I haven't been on the streets of Jianghai County a few times before. Bai Xiaomo shook his head, and then said pitifully, "Mom rarely takes me back for dinner." ”
Bai Xiaomo's tutor is very strict, she was supposed to start cultivating in two years, but because of Xu Qiming's help, the Bai family's plans for this heir were all affected, and Bai Xiaomo broke through to the first level of martial apprentices, so the Bai family temporarily stopped educating Bai Xiaomo and began to change the plan.
With this kung fu, Bai Xiaomo has time to come out, the reason why Bai Yuexi is willing to give Bai Xiaomo to Xu Qiming to take out to play is precisely because Bai Yuexi has considered letting Xu Qiming teach Bai Xiaomo to practice, although Xu Qiming is only a martial artist, but with his performance in the martial arts arena, it is possible to become a martial artist or even a martial artist.
And before, when Bai Xiaomo was very young, Bai Yuexi told her that her life was not her own, it was the entire Bai family, and if there was a need, everyone in the Bai family would work hard for Bai Xiaomo.
Although Bai Xiaomo didn't understand, she still accepted the education of the Bai family, because she didn't want to see her mother's disappointed expression.
"Then take a good look, let's go, let's go in. Xu Qiming naturally didn't know what Bai Xiaomo had done before, and he didn't know Bai Yuexi's thoughts, what he had to do now was to fill his stomach first.
Then the five people entered the restaurant and directly asked for a small private room, and there were not many people who could use the small private room, so Xu Qiming's request was easily met by the store.
The small private rooms were on the 5th and 6th floors, and Xu Qiming and several people went directly to a vertical installation in the hall on the first floor.
This vertical device can be moved up and down, which can easily send people from the first floor to the top floor, and can also be loosened, so as to avoid the trouble of guests climbing the stairs, which is also one of the reasons why Jianghai Restaurant is popular.
However, Xu Qiming knew that this was just a machine that was activated by mechanical techniques, and he could make it if conditions permitted.
Five people stood on a protected platform, and they were then taken to the sixth floor by the machine.
"It's amazing!" Bai Xiaomo exclaimed, she had never seen such a large mechanism.
In Bai Xiaomo's curiosity, the five people walked off the platform, and under the leadership of Xiao Er, they came to a small private room.
The small private room is not big, it can accommodate five or six people, there is a small wooden table in the middle, on which are placed tableware and a pot of tea, and there is a stove in the middle, which is prepared for people who want to eat barbecue, and there are a few chairs arranged around, and the whole room looks small and exquisite.
The five of them gathered around and ordered barbecue and lamb legs, as well as a few home-cooked dishes, and then Xu Qiming and the five of them chatted in the small private room.
"Brother Chen, why don't I talk to the eldest lady, you and Chen Xue come to the Wang family's main family, what do you think?" There are a few members of the Wang family's main family with foreign surnames, and Xu Qiming asked so at will.
"I don't care, but enlighten your kindness, brother, I will definitely go, as long as the eldest lady agrees. Chen Yifei said heroically, asked Xiao Er for two bottles of wine, and then drank with Xu Qiming.
"Well, I'll tell the eldest lady when I get back. Although Xu Qiming and Wang Yuan can call each other by their names in private, but outside, Xu Qiming still wants to maintain Wang Yuan's status, and invite Chen Yifei to come, Xu Qiming is planning to recommend Chen Yifei to Wang Yuan, and it will be helpful to Wang Yuan in the future.
After that, Xu Qiming and Chen Yifei touched a glass and drank wine.
The three girls ordered a drink, and the so-called drink was actually just some sweet and sour water, a pot of about 10 copper coins, just for children.
The taste is not very good, just like the taste of berries squeezed into juice and then water, Xu Qiming drank it when he was a child, and there was nothing good to drink.
When Jianghai Restaurant was served, it was very fast, and after a stick of incense, the dishes were all served, and the roasted leg of lamb and beef were directly placed on the oven in the middle of the table, and they continued to roast on the stove.
"Come, congratulations to the Qiming brothers on their 10-game winning streak in the martial arts arena!" Chen Yifei said loudly.
"Cheers!" the three girls also raised their cups full of drinks.
"Thank you. After Xu Qiming finished speaking, the five of them toasted and drank it all.
"Alright, alright, let's eat! I'm dying of hunger. Bai Xiaomo, who was sitting between Xu Qiming and Xu Huijun, said, shaking his legs.
"Well, let's eat!" Seeing that everyone couldn't wait, Xu Qiming announced that he was eating.
Then several people picked up chopsticks together and started eating.
Bai Xiaomo ate the vegetables quickly, like a foodie.
"Eat slowly, if it's not enough, you can order it again. Xu Qiming said, drinking with Chen Yifei, who was sitting next to him.
"Woo... Hmm..."Bai Xiaomo nodded while eating.
"Alas..."Seeing that everyone was eating so happily, Xu Qiming suddenly sighed.
"What's wrong Qiming, aren't you happy? The food is not delicious?" Seeing Xu Qiming sighing, Chen Yifei asked with concern...
