Time goes back to the day before.

Ling Xi, who had just finished holding an emergency meeting, signaled that the others could leave if they were fine, and he didn't want to leave in the early morning, but instead sat on the chair meaningfully and looked at Ling Xi who was sitting on the desk while drinking tea.

"What do you want to do?"

Ling Xi raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, continuing to be busy with the matter at hand.

"I don't want to do anything, but you're really not in a hurry?"

"Where can you see that I'm not in a hurry, what I just did will be in vain?"

"You don't have to come with me, it's just a small submarine accident, and there's no one worth paying attention to......

"What is a small submarine accident?" Ling Xi's expression was solemn, and he didn't look angry, "Even if the person above is not the person from the Qi clan himself, but this is also the other party demonstrating with our hermit family, shouldn't it be taken seriously?"

"You can deceive others, but you can't deceive me, I've already gotten the news, I don't believe you don't know, the one in the third grid is ready to rush to the edge of the sea with his sweetheart in person, I don't believe you care at all......

Ling Chen said slowly, waiting to see the forbearant and depressed expression on Ling Xi's face, but he was destined to be disappointed.

"Don't think about using this matter to provoke me, you won't be unclear about which is more important in front of the family's interests, if you really have this spare time, you might as well pay more attention to the whereabouts of that period of the clan!"

"'The Clansman?' Is the name of Yu Mo hot, as for you avoiding it like this? Or do you ...... this person?"

Whether it was at the emergency meeting just now, or chatting with him here now, Ling Xi never mentioned the three words "Qi Yumo" from beginning to end, but even so, others understood who she was referring to by "Period Clan".

"Knock!"

The door to the conference room was not closed, but the assistant knocked politely, but the expression on his face looked like he had something important to report.

"What's the matter, let's just say it!"

Ling Xi didn't mean to avoid Ling Chen, after all, even if she really let Ling Chen avoid it, if Ling Chen wanted to know, there were other ways to find out the news.

"Yes...... There is new news on the edge of the sea, and it is related to the ...... of the period."

The assistant's afterglow swept in the direction of Ling Chen, which made Ling Xi frown suddenly.

"You always watch what he does, and if you don't say it, go out and let others tell you!"

"First of all, the Light Knife Battalion, they originally controlled a girl with a suspicious identity, but they were rescued by someone as if they were in a no-man's land, and when they found out, they only saw the afterimage of a man in the surveillance, and then the news came from our people guarding near the monument that the authorities there had been ...... And it was completely destroyed, not even a complete surveillance footage remained, but according to eyewitness descriptions, the man looked very similar to the Qi family, and it was not surprising that the period himself, and the person was seriously injured......

"So what about the others now?"

"Our people and ...... I lost ......."

"Rubbish!"

Ling Xi slapped the table and stood up directly from the seat, so frightened that the assistant immediately flinched.

"Where is Qin Jianshu?"

"For the time being...... Nothing new."

"Alright, you go down first!"

Ling Xi waved his hand and said impatiently, but his eyes had a new consideration as the assistant left.

When the assistant had completely left, she snorted coldly.

"In the future, I have to buy the people around me to pick one that is not easy to expose, the means are so bad, and I, who is a reprimand, will also be disgraced, right?"

Choked in the early hours of the morning.

That's right, he deliberately used such a clumsy means to buy off the most persuasive and easily exposed assistant around Ling Xi, the purpose was to deliberately respond to Ling Xi, he just wanted Ling Xi to know that Ling Xi could tease him if he wanted to tease even as the patriarch.

Of course, this is mainly because after the matter of Ning Guo was exposed last time, Ling Xi suppressed him too harshly.

However, it was obvious that Ling Xi knew how to provoke the other party better than him, so he only let in two sentences

He almost couldn't contain his emotional outburst.

"That's done, next time I'll pick a difficult ......."

"Since you're so idle, why don't you go to the edge of the sea yourself, so that you don't have nothing to do with these children's games all day!"

Ling Xi smiled faintly, it was clear that he didn't seem to have any special meaning, but it made him feel a chill down his spine.

"I'm busy......

He just wanted to refuse, but he didn't want Ling Xi to have already thought of other countermeasures in advance.

"Is your business more important or the things of your clan more important? The appearance of the Qi clan this time is definitely not simple, if you don't go, will it be difficult for me, the patriarch, to come out in person?"

"It's not impossible, Renhuan...... When I didn't say it, I couldn't go!"

Facing Ling Xi's unrefusable eyes, Ling Chen knew that even if he thought of other reasons, he would be scolded back.

However, he will not give up, don't look at Ling Xi who looks impeccable now, but in fact, he can't let go of Shen Huan in his heart, otherwise he won't contact Dingli again......

He doesn't rule out going to the edge of the sea, in normal times, he is a fun-loving character, such a "sending" is in line with his heart, but he has always had doubts about Ling Xi's resolute departure from the third grid realm, and successfully won the support of almost all the elders in the clan to sit on the patriarch's throne, he heard the ear and eye report that Ling Xi had private dealings with psychic, but he couldn't find substantive evidence, if he dared to expose Ling Xi's dealings with psychic, but was counterattacked by Ling Xi on the grounds of "normal exchanges", it would be more than worth the loss.

After all, Ling Xi was already so cunning back then, let alone being a patriarch for a few years......

On the other side, on a small island not far from the Xiangguo Sea, a middle-aged man with a face somewhat similar to Shen Huan sat opposite another man in loose casual clothes.

"Brother Yu seems to be really interested, I thought that I would feel a little uneasy to disturb Brother Yu at this time, but now it seems that I am too worried."

Although the man in casual clothes looks more than ten years younger than Yu Siqi, judging from the temperament, movements and eyes of the two, it doesn't look like there is a generation gap at all, but more like peers of the same age.

"You come to me, no matter what time it is, it's not a nuisance, you can visit, it's too late for me to welcome it!"

Yu Siqi said, putting on a new tea in front of the man opposite.

"If I had something to ask you for, I wonder if you would welcome me as much as you do now?"

"It's my pleasure!"

Hearing the encouragement say this, Yu Siqi not only did not feel half annoyed, but responded with great interest.

However, the next moment, the encouragement suddenly smiled and said.

"You're sure I'm not going to ask you for help, are you?"

Yu Siqi also smiled back, and there was even a little helplessness in the smile.

"With your nature, it's really hard for you to ask others for help, if you really want to ask me for help, you won't refuse my offer of help so many times!"

Whether it was the last time the underground prison was completely cleaned up, or the later many properties under his name were found by the third grid to find evidence of violations and anonymously reported, the attitude of encouragement is to let those industries go bankrupt and decline without blinking an eye, in fact, if he is willing to ask Yu Siqi for help, Yu Siqi will not hesitate to help him save it, anyway, Yu Siqi and the third grid have been hostile for a long time, but even if Yu Siqi offered to help him online, the encouragement did not hesitate to refuse.

Yu Siqi once asked him, these are clearly his hard work, and now that they have been destroyed by the third grid realm into this appearance, isn't he distressed?

However, he replied very frankly that he was not distressed.

If someone else said this, Yu Siqi must have felt that the other party was hypocritical, but if it was replaced by encouragement, he knew that encouragement was really not distressed.

At that time, the encouragement was indeed as excited as every ordinary person, and even complacent, but the unexpected death of his parents made him have an epiphany - all the things that were obtained without effort need to be compensated for by other costs.

So from then on, he completely let go of the power in his hands, and the wealth he had obtained before

Fu also seems to be dispensable, and his whole person even looks like a person who is completely detached from this world, and this kind of indifference and inaction attitude is what Yu Siqi lacks the most.

I have to say that this kind of encouragement easily attracted Yu Siqi's attention, so from the initial temptation to the later 100% certainty, Yu Siqi really became a special "friend" with the encouragement.

"I think you know yourself better than I know you even more than I do!"

Encouragement smiled again and raised his glass, and the two of them drank the tea in their cups together.

"I've heard about the recent events in the edge of the sea......

"Oh, could it be that Brother Mian is interested in this?"

"Well, I think it's quite interesting, the hidden family has always been mysterious, but this time it is active in the edge sea with great fanfare, it's really hard not to be impressed!"

Mian Li said with curiosity and excitement in his eyes.

"I don't know what Brother Mian said about the 'Hidden Family' refers to the four major families...... Or ......"

"The 'Four Great Families' should only be considered 'Semi-Hidden Families' strictly speaking, right?"

With just one sentence, Yu Siqi instantly understood what he meant.

"It seems that Brother Mian is more knowledgeable than I expected...... Yu Siqi said, changing him with new tea again, "Then I wish Brother Mian a lot of fun in advance!"

"Boom!"

With the crisp sound of teacups colliding, the two reached an agreed idea.

"Speaking of which, this was originally an entanglement between those families, forgive my brother for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, I don't know why Brother Yu suddenly became interested in this?"

The main reason why he is interested in this incident in the edge sea is that it involves the hidden family, although the third grid realm has caused his industry to suffer a lot of blows, but he has no intention of retaliating because of this, but he always has to understand Yu Siqi's thoughts before he can plan with Yu Siqi in the next time.

"I coincide with the reason why Brother Mian is interested, but in addition to this reason, I am also a little selfish, you know, our Yu clan has always been at odds with the third grid, and Huanshen's kid is just the same surname, and the current head of the Ling clan has also had a deep love for Huanshen's kid...... Brother Mian should understand what I mean, right?"

"Understood."

After a pause, he raised his eyebrows and nodded.

In fact, there is another factor in Yu Siqi's heart, that is, to go against the conspiracy that is still in a coma!

Whether it was in the tribe in the past, or later Huanmou took over the old tribe of the Huan clan and the third realm, Huanmou has never advocated making the things of the hidden family bigger, but hopes to "take advantage of the trend", but he Yu Siqi doesn't want Huanmou to go well, even if Huanmou is still in a coma now, if Huanmou really wakes up one day and sees that the outside world has changed, the last thing he wants to see has become a reality......

He couldn't wait to see the shocked and frustrated look on Huanmou's face!
