Chapter 41: The Undercurrent (Part II)
These two guys shouldn't know something, right?
Zhou Meng thought in his heart, and almost confirmed his judgment. The two in front of them are also from extraordinary backgrounds, and with their connections, it is too easy to get some news.
Then, the purpose of their coming here this time is about to come out. It seems that although he has the upper hand, there is still a lot to do to block the covetous eyes from all sides.
Looking at Miss Zhou's secretly guarded look, Wu Jingjiao smiled, stepped forward and said, "Why is my sister so nervous? We're just here to pay a visit and catch up on the old days! You can't be so stingy, right? ”
Seeing that she frowned and was silent, Zuo Shiji showed a personable smile and said gently: "Zhou Meng, we are friends in the world, and we used to meet and party often, but now although we are in the army, we don't need to refuse people thousands of miles away like this, right?" ”
"I always think that since the elders have a good relationship, then there should also be a basis for cooperation between us, and the relationship between friends is always more acceptable than the relationship of hostility, isn't it?"
Zhou Meng's smart eyes turned a few times, and suddenly smiled: "Of course you can!" Let's just come in, right? ”
As he spoke, he instructed the biochemical maid beside him to open the door and let the two of them in.
……
In the quiet and elegant living room, Zhou Meng sat down on the main seat, Zuo Shiji and Wu Jing sat opposite her, and in the middle was a precious jade-colored dill crystal coffee table, which was full of tea and snacks sent by the maid, but several people were not interested in taking a second look.
The two women and one man stared at each other for a while, and seeing that Zhou Meng really didn't mean to speak first, Wu Jing had no choice but to cough and say with a dry smile:
"My sister's taste is still so elegant and unique, and she deserves to be one of the famous five golden flowers in the circle of celebrities in the imperial capital, this vision is ...... Tsk, it's just different from others! Being able to become the number one prom star in the social circle of the imperial capital for two consecutive years is much better than us......"
"Sister, you came here today, didn't you just say these unnutritious flattery words?" Zhou Meng clasped his arms in front of his chest and said expressionlessly:
"What exactly do you want to talk about? Just say it and don't waste each other's precious time! ”
Wu Jing touched a soft nail, her face couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, Zuo Shiji gently held her hand, signaled her to be restless, and then smiled:
"Alright! Since Zhou Meng, you don't want to beat around the bush, we don't have to test anymore! To put it simply, it's for that Xiao Junling's business. ”
And sure enough, it was!
Zhou Meng secretly sneered in his heart, and asked quietly: "He is now a student of Xichen Qinglan, and he is very valued, I don't know what you are doing with me?" Even if he had any ideas, it seemed that he should talk to the Temple of War. ”
"No, no, no, we don't mean to bargain with a Silent Star God of War, this is not what we are qualified to do now!" Zuo Shiji hurriedly argued,
"We just want to ask you for some information, about Xiao Junling's situation, I heard that His Highness has just conducted a comprehensive test of his qualifications, about the specific test results...... We're also interested, I don't know if you ......."
"I'm sorry, I can't promise you this!" Zhou Meng flatly refused, "I won't reveal a word of all the information about him, so don't be delusional!" ”
In the face of such a ruthless reply, Wu Jing's face was a little ugly, and she said without yin or yang:
"Why did my sister say such a desperate thing? Aren't we friends? You are not the only one who knows the news of that genius, and even if you don't agree, we can also find a way to know everything about him, but it just takes a little more effort! ”
"Then you can go ahead and give it a try, I hope your family's intelligence network can work!" Zhou Meng sneered.
Zuo Shiji thought for a while, took out a delicate black crystal card and put it on the coffee table, and said, "Here are 100,000 imperial energy points, which are used to buy that test report, is this okay?" ”
Zhou Meng looked at him with some amusement and said, "Do you think this money is meaningful to people like us?" ”
"How about adding another zero?" Zuo Shiji's face remained unchanged.
"Adding two zeros doesn't mean anything!" Zhou Meng said disdainfully,
"Zuo Shiji, you have to understand that not everything in this world can be solved with money, not to mention that our family is not inferior to your money! Don't bother with that, can you? ”
Zuo Shiji pursed his lips, opened his mouth and spit out another sentence: "Then add three more zeros!" How is it? ”
At this time, even Wu Jing's face beside her was a little shocked, obviously she didn't expect Zuo Shiji to be willing to pay such a big price.
Zhou Mengdai's eyebrows slowly twisted, stared at him for a long time, and then said with a smile: "With such a large amount of money, even your father is not qualified to call the shots, right?" Well, that old man in your family, has he already decided to spend this money? ”
"I really don't have the right to spend such a sum of money!" Zuo Shiji is honest and authentic,
"But as long as you are willing to let go, I can truthfully report the situation to the family knower afterwards, no matter how those old guys punish me, the matter has nothing to do with you!"
Zhou Meng moved her delicate body, changed to a more comfortable position, and put a pair of smooth and attractive lines, slender and round legs on the coffee table without any scruples, and then grabbed a peeled fruit and nibbled it, and said irrationally: "What if I still don't plan to agree?" ”
Wu Jing couldn't hold back and jumped up, and said angrily: "Don't you don't know what to do......"
Zuo Shiji hurriedly got up and held her down, and whispered in her ear: "Don't be impulsive, everything is for the family!" ”
Wu Jing said angrily: "But listen, what did she say just now?" It's a bully......"
"It's okay, everything is with me!" Zuo Shiji said in an aggravated tone.
Wu Jing snorted, threw his body heavily on the sofa, and stopped speaking.
Seeing that she was quiet, Zuo Shiji sat down and continued to say in the same elegant tone: "Miss Zhou Meng, we are here with great sincerity. Although this price is beyond our bottom line, for the sake of the family and the friendship of our elders over the years, I am still willing to accept it! ”
"In addition, we are also willing to pay the same price as the precious metal mineral resources, as well as twenty seventh-order genetic ability potions, such conditions should be enough to satisfy you, right?"
Zhou Meng snorted coldly and simply closed his eyes.
Zuo Shiji waited for a while, and seeing that she didn't mean to speak, he sighed lightly and said, "Since this still can't make you loosen, how about adding a marriage contract?" ”
"What do you mean?" Zhou Meng was suddenly startled.
"Since...... The Zhou family wants to have a Silent Star God of War who belongs to their own family," Zuo Shiji said calmly,
"Then I can provide you with a more suitable option, one of Wu Jing's distant clan uncles has been in retreat for many years, and has recently been on the verge of breaking through, and there is a good hope that he will successfully advance to the new Silent Star God of War, and I heard that this strong man especially likes young and beautiful girls, especially the ones with noble births!"
"If the Wu family proposes a marriage to your family on his behalf, I think your great-grandfather, who always puts the interests of the family first, will be very happy to agree! Because compared with a future super powerhouse, this choice is obviously more in line with the interests of the Zhou family! ”
Zhou Meng's body stiffened sharply, and he said coldly: "Your joke is not exciting at all!" ”
"It's not a joke!" Zuo Shiji said lightly,
"But it is the inevitable situation of a wealthy family, you should understand that for descendants like you and me, marriage is basically an exchange of interests! As long as it is beneficial to the family, all sacrifices can be made, I heard rumors that the strong man is older, and his temper is not very good, in the past hundred years, there have been many girls who have died in his hands, maybe it won't be long before you will be played to death by that old pervert! ”
Zhou Meng's face was pale, and he glared at him fiercely without saying a word.
Zuo Shiji's tone changed, and he said: "Of course, this is just a last resort, as friends who have known each other for many years, we can't bear to give you to that psychologically distorted old monster!" So, again, as long as you are willing to hand over all the information of Xiao Junling, and promise to advance and retreat together in the future in this matter, then we can become the most determined allies! ”
After speaking, he leaned back on the sofa leisurely and looked at the woman opposite with a gentle expression.
Zhou Meng thought for a moment, his eyes had gradually calmed down, and he even smiled:
"It is worthy of being one of the most outstanding heirs of the new generation of the Zuo family, and I was almost fooled by you! If you're the head of the house, maybe I'll be worried, but for now...... My position in the family and the various connections and resources in my hands are much more than you think, so I don't have to care about your threat at all! ”
"All of this is because of Xiao Junling, right?" Zuo Shiji asked calmly.
Zhou Meng smiled and said nothing, without the slightest intention of answering.
Zuo Shiji smiled bitterly and rubbed his temples, and said helplessly: "Do we have to go to hostility between us?" You should know that this is not the result I want to see, why can't we be friends? ”
"In addition to our family, the strength of the other wealthy families will soon get the news, when the time comes, your Zhou family wants to eat alone, I'm afraid the difficulty will not be too small, right? Wouldn't it be better if we joined forces and excluded their more greedy guys? ”
Zhou Meng pondered for a while and nodded slightly: "This is an acceptable reason, then, what are you going to do?" ”
"I need all his information first, and then I can decide how much resources the family can put into him!" Zuo Shiji said in a deep voice.
"That'...... All right! Zhou Meng stood up and walked to the inner room: "Please wait for a while." ”
"I've always had a good patience." Zuo Shiji said with a smile.
Ten minutes later, Zhou Meng came back, holding the test analysis report that was not too thick.
Zuo Shiji looked overjoyed, couldn't wait to take it, and then began to flip through it. Wu Jing also came over curiously, but after a few breaths, her beautiful big eyes were already round.
The two quickly exchanged glances, and then Zuo Shiji simply took out two crystal cards, put them in front of Zhou Meng and said, "Okay! It's all yours, I'm going to go back and contact the family right now, and we can talk about the specific cooperation plan another day. ”
With that, the man and woman hurriedly got up and said goodbye.
……
When he woke up, Xiao Junling found himself lying on a luxurious bed that was extremely large.
Several layers of transparent marquee beaded curtains hang down from the high dome, separating the bed from the outside, and the faint fragrance permeates the surroundings, looking out through the beaded curtains, the huge bedroom is extremely luxuriously furnished, even compared to the royal palace.
Gently turning over and getting out of bed, the edelweiss carpet that is several inches thick is stepped on silently, soft as if you are in the clouds.
Behind the inky jade screen, two delicate-looking biochemical maids in sexy uniforms walked over with gorgeous boxes, took out a complete set of tailor-made clothes from it, and then served him to dress neatly.
"Master, Your Highness has instructed you to go see her as soon as you wake up!" One of the maids said.
"Okay, I know the way, is there anything else?" Xiao Junling said.
"You've got several appointments," said another maid, handing him a palm-sized pocket light brain, "I wonder what you're going to do?" ”
"What? Show me......" He took it and glanced at it, and found that Zhou Meng's name was in the first place, followed by Yu Xin'er, Hua Qingyang, and several other names who were completely unfamiliar and couldn't see the origin.
"Alright! I'll leave it there for now, and when I see the teachers come back, I'll meet with them one by one. He said.
