Chapter 2 The Bai Clan
() Bai Tengqi, the patriarch of the Bai clan.
A slightly bloated figure, with a cute baby face, full of profiteers. This is how Bai Tengqi felt to Li Yuxuan at this moment. It's really strange how this kind of "condition" can have a perfect daughter like Bai Ruolan.
"Sit down. Bai Teng drank back from the left and right attendants, and motioned for Li Yuxuan to sit beside him, the smile on the corner of his mouth made Li Yuxuan feel deceived, and even his back seemed to be cold. It seems that he has to deal with his future father-in-law.
"Virtuous nephew, are you looking for Ruolan today?"
is still the same "treacherous smile", casually picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. At the same time, he glanced at the young man in front of him out of the corner of his eye. secretly praised his daughter for her vision. That kind of demeanor that is not flustered in the face of major events, and is as calm as water, is definitely not something that an eighteen-year-old young man can have. But it is clear that the young man in front of him is an exception.
Old fox!
Li Yuxuan secretly thought in his heart. At the same time, the surface is not moving, and he also learns to pick up the teacup in front of him.
"Good tea, uncle really knows how to enjoy it!"
If you care about him, then why should I be too anxious! Years of experience and experience in the shopping mall tell yourself, the more you seem to care, the more room you have to expand in the subsequent negotiations. Correspondingly, the more benefits you will receive.
Good boy, you even played a spear in front of me, then I'm not welcome.
"Virtuous nephew, what you talked about with Ruolan a few days ago, I'm still thinking about it,"
"Yes, since the uncle hasn't thought about it yet, the little nephew will leave first!"
Since you don't point it out, I can only pretend to be confused.
Although he said that he wanted to leave, looking at Li Yuxuan's leisurely appearance, he didn't seem to have the intention of leaving immediately.
In fact, a few days ago, Li Yuxuan asked Ruolan out, roughly telling Ruolan about the Li family's movements in the past three years, showing that he wanted to figure out the relationship between Guò and Bai Ruolan and unite the Bai family. And Bai Ruolan said that no matter whether this matter is successful or not, she will be on her side. Therefore, about some things, as Bai Ruolan's father and the patriarch of the Bai clan, Bai Tengqi should already know something.
Looking at Bai Teng's expression in his chest now, Li Yuxuan clearly knew that the old fox on the opposite side was not unthinking, but wanted to take this opportunity to touch his hole cards. Therefore, Li Yuxuan, who was drinking tea at the moment, was also looking at Bai Tengqi in front of him with the corner of his eye, this old fox who had been in business and officialdom for more than 20 years.
The atmosphere suddenly fell into a somewhat awkward situation.
However, the old fox deserved to be an old fox, and said with a smile: "Virtuous nephew, the orchid garden where Ruolan lives is in the east, and the virtuous nephew has not been there." Then let the old man lead the way, and by the way, let my future son-in-law familiarize himself with the environment, so that the virtuous nephew will not come over and go to the wrong place at night, haha!" he got up from his chair.
No matter how calm Li Yuxuan is, he is an eighteen-year-old boy after all, and when he mentioned such a sensitive topic, his face couldn't help but blush slightly, and he immediately stood aside and said, "Father-in-law said he was laughing." ”
A sentence of "son-in-law" and a sentence of "father-in-law" suddenly diluted the originally slightly dull atmosphere. And once they got involved with Bai Ruolan, a feeling of happiness surged in the hearts of these two men. One immediately thinks of the cute and naughty only daughter, and the other has the image of a gentle and lovely fiancée in his heart. Both parties unconsciously felt that they had an intimate relationship with each other, and the original defensive mood suddenly relaxed.
Orchid Garden, as the name suggests, must be planted with orchids. But for Li Yuxuan, who visited for the first time, he was still surprised.
The whole orchid garden is divided into three parts, in front of which is a sea of orchids, covering almost half of the orchid garden, leaving only a winding path that leads to the "hidden valley" looming in the distance. And the most amazing thing is that the whole winding path is not paved with sand and stone, nor is it precious granite, but the fine pearls of different sizes. It is conceivable that Bai Tengqi doted on his precious daughter.
Being in this piece of blue sea pearl winding path, not only does not make people feel too luxurious, but has a natural charm, you can imagine the ingenuity of the original designer.
"Father-in-law, I don't know who made this winding path, so that I, who don't know anything about gardens, have to admire his whimsical ideas. ”
Bai Tengqi habitually touched his slightly bloated belly, with a smug look.
"Who else, it's your little wife who hasn't passed through the door, my precious daughter!"
It seems that Ruolan is really a girl who knows how to be funny. Alas, it's a pity that I don't know anything about this. Marrying someone like me who only knows how to dance and wield swords really disappoints her aura.
While Li Yuxuan was pondering, a white figure ran on the path.
"Yuxuan!"
Before you see him, you hear his voice first.
"Haha!, if you have a sweetheart, you will still have me, an old man, on the side!"
"Dad!" Bai Ruolan suddenly threw herself into her father's arms, and gently hammered Bai Teng's chest with both hands, "Teasing her daughter again!" At the same time, she didn't forget to turn around and make a grimace at Li Yuxuan, looking like a little daughter.
Li Yuxuan was stunned for a while, and his eyes were fixed on Bai Ruolan.
When Bai Ruolan saw it, two blushes appeared on her cheeks, and she turned her head into Bai Teng's chest.
And Bai Teng, who was a person who came over, looked at it, where was there anything he didn't understand, and laughed happily. It can be seen that her daughter and Li Yuxuan appreciate each other very much. Bai Ruolan's head drooped lower and lower, and she was about to hit Bai Teng's stomach. And Li Yuxuan on the other side also came back to his senses and coughed dryly, slightly hiding his embarrassment.
Looking at the pair of children, Bai Tengqi's heart was overflowing with the pride and relief of being a father.
"Alright, let's talk!"
Holding his daughter in one hand and his future son-in-law in the other, the three of them walked into the depths of the Orchid Garden. This intimate move invisibly shortened the distance between Bai Tengqi and Li Yuxuan.
The three of them sat down again in the back hall of the "Hidden Valley", Bai Tengqi was in the middle, and Li Yuxuan and Bai Ruolan were on the left and right. This was originally Bai Ruolan's residence, and usually idle people didn't dare to enter the Orchid Garden for half a step, not to mention that this place was in the depths of the Orchid Garden, and there was usually only one personal maid in and out.
But according to Li Yuxuan's secret observation, not counting the garden on his right, there are three powerful ambushes in the sea of orchids in front of the "Hidden Valley" alone, and no less than twenty masters are lurking in it.
In fact, this is not only because of Bai Ruolan's special status, but also because Bai Tengqi has handed over family affairs to Bai Ruolan since last year. This "deep valley" has invisibly become the forbidden place of Baifu.
Bai Teng first looked at Bai Ruolan, who was sitting on the right, and after seeing that he nodded to indicate that there was no one, he looked at Li Yuxuan on the other side.
"Yu Xuan'er, Ruolan has already told me about the situation over there. In fact, I also know very well that when I decide to marry Ruolan to you, you will find me sooner or later. But to my surprise, you are so calm, it's been almost two months, you came to me, is there any reason?"
Seeing that the other party has shifted the topic to the main topic, it is inconvenient for him to have anything to hide.
"It's because I was contemplating the various changes of the "Three Appearances of the Divine Dragon" at that time, so I can't separate myself, and I ask my uncle and Ruolan Duoduo to understand!"
After saying that, I bowed to him.
"What, you have already practiced the "Three Appearances of the Divine Dragon", and the future life is terrifying!" Bai Teng settled down and sorted out the thoughts in his head.
"I guess your father hasn't practiced the "Divine Dragon Three Appearances" yet. If I'm not mistaken, you're just the same age as Ruolan. It is remarkable that a young man has achieved such an achievement! Li Xia has a son like this, what more could a husband ask for!"
Uncle praised it. ”
"Where, if the younger generation of our Bai clan is also a genius like you. Then I can also learn from your father, let go of this burden on my shoulders, and retire early. ”
"Dad!" Bai Ruolan pouted, obviously quite dissatisfied with what her father had just said.
"Ah, yes. How did Dad forget, my precious daughter, it seems that I am really old and it is time to retire. ”
