Chapter 117: The Man Behind the Scenes
Everyone left, but Xiao Qingya had no intention of leaving. His slightly hazy eyes stared at Xiao Yao without blinking, and at this time, his still handsome face was extremely calm, and the calm made people tremble.
"Do you know everything?"
Xiao Qingya asked softly, a hint of surprise suddenly flashing in her hazy eyes. She thought that Xiao Yao must have known some inside story, otherwise, he, who had always had illusions about Xiao Dingtian, would not suddenly make up his mind to leave.
"The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit!"
The corners of Xiao Yao's mouth raised, and he smiled faintly, and then, he shook his head gently, "I don't know anything." I'm here, but I have a brain to analyze, and I have eyes to see through phenomena to see things as they are!"
"Let's hear about it......" Xiao Qingya looked at him, with a look of "I don't believe you are so powerful".
"Are there any rewards?"
Xiao Yao joked to alleviate the extremely helpless sadness in his heart.
"Yes!"
Xiao Qingya's tone was resolute, but she didn't say what the reward was, which made people reverie.
"Okay!"
Xiao Yao let out a long sigh, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, before he said slowly: "After the coming-of-age ceremony, the Heavenly Dragon Empire will hold a national competition with cities as a unit. ”
"Contestants are required to be under twenty-three years old, with the strength of a seven-star samurai or above, and the prizes are very rich. For this reason, Feng Tianlin also specially gave me a Rejuvenation Pill, and also promised: If I win the first place in Yewu City, he will give me another special gift. ”
"Go on!"
After listening to Xiao Yao's words, Xiao Qingya raised her eyebrows, and an imperceptible strangeness flashed in her beautiful eyes below. She found that Xiao Yao was really powerful, and she got to the point with one mouth, this national competition made by the Heavenly Dragon Empire had indeed changed the trajectory of many things.
"In the last gambling stone incident, a mysterious person secretly rescued Xue Boling, allowing him to keep the super money-making machine of the casino, and also made Xiao Dingtian lose a great opportunity to take the casino back. If he could take this opportunity to take back the casino, maybe I wouldn't be the pawn who sacrificed for the good of the family. ”
Xiao Qingya knew that Xiao Yao counted Xiao Dingtian in this matter, but he didn't want to be a chess piece, he didn't want to be humiliated by the Xue family, he didn't want to leave the Xiao family, and he didn't want to leave Yewu City, but this mysterious person who suddenly appeared completely destroyed Xiao Yao's plan.
Therefore, after hearing Xiao Yao's words, her little face suddenly sank, and a cold glow appeared in her eyes, which was murderous.
"It's all this damn mystery man! If I find out who did it, I won't let him go!" she said through gritted teeth and hatred, her little fists clenched together and gurgling, and her face was even more hideous like that of a tigress who had just been robbed of her cubs, and looked terrifying.
Xiao Qingya has been out of the country for so many days, and she is secretly investigating this matter with Aunt Mei, but she has not found the slightest clue.
Looking at the pretty face that had become extremely hideous due to anger, Xiao Yao was moved and continued: "When I saw Xiao Lin and them that day, I wondered how the elders could make an exception and let them come here to cultivate. But at the time, I didn't think it had anything to do with me, so I didn't pay much attention to it. ”
"But today, when I saw Xiao Nan, who had lost all his cultivation, appear here again, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in my mind, and a thought couldn't help but breed. ”
"What thoughts?" Xiao Qingya asked, her eyes flickering, and they were full of surprised little stars.
"They came here to cultivate to participate in the national competition after the coming-of-age ceremony!" Xiao Yao said in an affirmative tone.
"What's going on?"
Xiao Qingya was even more puzzled, "Although there are a few five-star and six-star warriors, there is absolutely no problem if you cultivate here for a period of time and reach a seven-star warrior and meet the conditions for participation." ”
"No!"
Xiao Yao shook his head again and again, disagreeing with her, "I think the problem is precisely here." ”
"How?"
"Just to participate in this competition, Xiao Dingtian can't tell the Elders to make an exception to come to the Spirit Pool to cultivate. ”
Xiao Yao suddenly sneered a few times, and a terrifying light flashed in his slightly constricted pupils, "They are participating in the competition to be chess pieces, and they are a tool to obtain benefits for the Xiao family!"
"What do you mean?" Xiao Qingya frowned slightly, faintly, she seemed to have thought of something, but she was not sure.
"Casino!"
"Smack!"
As soon as Xiao Yao's words fell, Xiao Qingya's eyes suddenly lit up, and she slapped her forehead suddenly, feeling annoyed that she had ignored such an important issue.
"Xiao Dingtian and the Xiao family want to artificially manipulate the results of the game in order to obtain more profits on the casino. She exclaimed.
"That's right!"
Xiao Yao nodded, "But if you want to control the game and pursue the maximization of profits, he must control the casino in his own hands." If I guessed correctly...... Xiao Dingtian has already made a fuss about my divorce from Xue Rongrong, right?"
"Yes!"
Xiao Qingya lightly nodded her delicate chin, "He is ready to withdraw from the Xue family, but the marriage contract is with your father, and your father has not returned from going out, so the old man is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot." ”
After a pause, she said again: "Xue Boling is the same, he sends people every day to see if your father has come back, and he also proposed to Xiao Dingtian to hold your wedding with Xue Rongrong in advance, but the old man also refused with a very strong attitude on the grounds that Xue Rongrong 'does not abide by women's morals'. As soon as your father returns, he will cancel the engagement. ”
"It's a pipe dream!"
Xiao Yao scoffed at Xiao Dingtian's approach at this time, and was extremely disappointed in this grandfather who put the interests of the family first.
"But ......"
Xiao Qingya's big eyes flickered a few times, and a few doubts flashed in it: "What people never expected was that Xue Boling, who had always been obedient to the Xiao family, suddenly became tougher and openly contradicted Xiao Dingtian, saying that the Xiao family had violated the original agreement and wanted to withdraw from the marriage, but the right to operate the casino would never be returned." Moreover, the Xiao family poured dirty water on the Xue family on trumped-up charges, and they must be compensated to a certain extent. ”
"The casino is Xue Boling's last straw, how could he hand it over so easily? Not to mention ......"
At this time, Xiao Yao's gaze was slightly solemn, and the development of things was a little beyond his imagination, and he hesitated for a moment before he continued: "Now that someone is supporting Xue Boling, his waist will naturally harden." ”
"But who's going to support him?"
Xiao Qingya pondered for a moment, and her eyes lit up, "That mysterious person who helped the Xue family tide over the difficulties?"
"Definitely. ”
Xiao Yao looked up at the starry sky, his two eyebrows twisted together, and his face became more and more solemn. Things were getting closer to his judgment, but the more he did, the more he felt as if he had been pressed against a boulder in his chest, and he panicked.
"I secretly investigated the Lei family, and they ......"
"It's not the Lei family!"
Without waiting for Xiao Qingya to finish speaking, Xiao Yao suddenly interjected, and said in an affirmative tone, "The Lei family's hand can't reach out to Yewu City, this mysterious person is in Yewu City!"
"It can't be!"
Xiao Qingya's eyes widened, and it was full of disbelief, "In Yewu City, apart from the Xiao family, the only one who can help the Xue family is the Yun family." But after the Yun family acquired most of the Xue family's assets, they didn't have that financial resources at all. How could that mysterious figure be ......"
At this point, her words came to an abrupt end, her big eyes fanning out like butterfly wings, and the disbelief in her eyes was replaced by a touch of shock.
Suddenly, she thought of someone, someone she thought was the most unlikely: Feng Tianlin!
"Oh my God, how is that possible?"
Xiao Qingya reached out and covered her open mouth, she was frightened by the flash of inspiration she had just had.
"The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit! In the face of huge interests, anything is possible!"
Xiao Yao emphasized again, his face changed suddenly, and he felt very uncomfortable. He also hoped that his judgment was wrong, but it turned out that the facts were gradually matching his judgment.
"It's too much! He clearly knows that your father and son don't want to leave the Xiao family, why do you want to do this? ”
Xiao Qingya's eyes showed a fierce light, and she stomped her feet hatefully, "No, I'll settle accounts with him!"
Obviously, this mysterious person, Xiao Qingya also believes that it is Feng Tianlin. In Yewu City, he was the only one who had the financial resources to help the Xue family tide over the difficulties.
Moreover, controlling the casino can also achieve his goal of overtaking the outcome of the game. Only he can make Xue Boling dare to straighten his waist and carry Xiao Dingtian to the end.
"Forget it, think about it, if you were him, wouldn't you miss this good opportunity?"
Xiao Yao grabbed Xiao Qingya, who was in a state of rage, and her solemn face disappeared at this moment, replaced by a free and easy face:
A kind of freedom that sees through everything in the world, is quiet and indifferent, and has no quarrel with the world.
"Anyway, he took advantage of you, and we must not cheapen him for nothing!" Xiao Qingya muttered through gritted teeth.
"Of course, how can I let people take advantage of it for nothing?" Xiao Yao hugged Xiao Qingya in his arms, the corners of his mouth raised, and a weird smile appeared on his face.
When he judged that the mysterious person was very likely to be Feng Tianlin, he had already thought of a clever plan that would maximize his benefits.
"I have good news and bad news, Brother Xiao Yao...... Which one do you want to hear first?"
After a while, Xiao Qingya, who had been snuggled in the young man's arms for a little while, took Xiao Yao's hand and sat down.
At this time, because of Xiao Yao's sadness about leaving the Xiao family and her anger at Feng Tianlin, at this moment, she seemed to be thrown out of the clouds, gone, and her cherry lips still swayed an intoxicating arc.
Looking at the cherry mouth that exuded an alluring atmosphere, Xiao Yao suppressed the urge to kiss it, smiled and said, "Let's talk about the bad news first!"
"Brother Xiao Yao, I, I, I have to leave Yewu City early!"
The girl's face darkened suddenly, she bit her lip, and a trembling whisper slowly came out between her teeth;
Staring at the young man's eyes, there was a trace of reluctance and helplessness, and even, two traces of mist were slowly gathering inside......
