Chapter Seventy-Three: Life
Beijing, Spring and Autumn Department, in a certain alloy room full of science and technology.
A large round table sits in the middle of it, surrounded by staggered chairs, and above it is a large circular display that just envelops the entire table.
This is, the lights in the room automatically turn on, and the light shines from the display screen, showing a three-dimensional human face.
The Spring and Autumn Twelve Elders, a total of seven elders attended the meeting.
And Li Rinshuang, who participated in this meeting, is the youngest one.
"Elder Li, I can elaborate on the details of your mission."
An old man in Tang costume coughed lightly and kicked off the meeting.
"The comprehensive evaluation of the test results of Chen Xiao's ability qualification test is S." Li Rinshuang said lightly: "From a personal point of view, I think Chen Xiao is a newcomer worth cultivating, he has excellent psychological quality, innocent background, and strong learning ability. ”
"It's S-level, did the girl from the Zhou family cheat before? What does she do to hide her man's abilities? On the other side, a gray-haired old woman frowned.
"The behavior pattern of the Zhou family is still difficult for us to guess so far, and this matter is not worth pondering."
Above the main seat, a black-gold tanuki cat sat elegantly and said, "Elder Li, we need to know more than that, is there any secret about Chen Xiao?" ”
Li Rinshuang hesitated, shook his head and said: "No, he has nothing to do with Kyushu, and the previous assassination of the Sikong family was not sabotaged by him, I think it was the back hand left by the head of the Zhou family in Rongcheng." ”
He glanced at everyone and asked, "Elders, I admire Chen Xiao's talent very much, and coupled with his previous merits, it is not too much to become a Spring and Autumn Deacon, what do you think?" ”
"Yes."
"It's no different."
The remaining six elders were either silent or nodded in agreement, even Elder Sikong, who had a holiday with Chen Xiao, did not raise any objections, but just sat on the side with a blank face, as if he was asleep.
At this time, the tanuki cat sitting in the middle spoke again, and his voice was crisp: "Elder Li, what has happened to the Zhou family recently?" ”
Li Rinshuang shook her head: "I don't know, the Zhou family has reacted so much recently, you should ask others." ”
Sikong Xu glanced at him and didn't speak.
As the core figure of the second generation of the Sikong family, he knew that Li Rinshuang had just driven his second brother and nephew out of Rongcheng, but he still didn't say anything.
Just because it was just an ordinary meeting of elders, he disdained the other party's verbal arguments at the conference table.
The white-haired old woman frowned and said: "This is not a way, without the Zhou family, the difficulty of us entering the forbidden area of life will be greatly increased, which is not conducive to the development of the major families, can you come with me to visit the Zhou family to show goodwill?" ”
There was silence in the conference room.
No one speaks, and the first person to speak will become the target of public criticism.
Seeing this scene, Li Rinshuang sneered at Sikong Xu, and the figure disappeared immediately.
Sikong Xu did not say anything, and also withdrew from the conference room.
One by one, the elders vanished, and at last only a cat sat in the middle of the round table.
The pupils of the brown eyes dilated, and the tanuki yawned and licked its paws.
It gracefully jumped off the table and walked out of the conference room with a twisted catwalk.
——
Second Ring, Zhou Family.
The air in the quaint courtyard is fresh, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and there is no sense of winter at all.
The rockery, green water, and park are quiet, the shadows are sparse, and the sunlight is slanted and sprinkled through the ginkgo leaves, forming a quiet and elegant fragrant scene.
Under the huge ginkgo tree, a gray-haired old man sat on a stone bench, his skin was loose, his face had age spots, his arms were thin and skinny, but he was in good spirits, and his eyes were full of wisdom and wisdom.
Beside the old man, a beautiful woman with a melon seed face gently leaned on his shoulder, her clear autumn water eyes squinted slightly, as if she was enjoying the sun's bath.
"Xuanxuan, are you still adjusting to life at home?"
"Well, my parents were very nice to me, and I didn't say anything more."
Zhou Yuxuan opened her eyes, her white skin blocked the sun, and said softly: "I haven't been back for a long time, I have adapted to the humidity of the south, but I am not used to the dryness of the north." ”
"Grandpa, is your body really okay?"
Zhou Ding shook his head, his voice was muddy: "It is not in the way, birth, old age, sickness and death are the laws of all things in the world, and those who know their fate cannot live forever, which is also an eternal law." ”
"But don't worry about it now, it's not a problem to live for ten years or eight years."
Zhou Ding stood up, his face was kind, and said, "The top priority is, have you found the person you are dreaming of?" ”
Zhou Yuxuan was stunned, nodded, and shook her head hesitantly: "I, I don't know very well now......"
"Sometimes I feel that Chen Xiao is the person in my dreams, but I have never seen him have that kind of smile, just like a fish in his throat, as soon as he opens his mouth, he feels that what he said is wrong, hey, I don't know how to describe it......"
Speaking of the back, Zhou Yuxuan lowered her head in disappointment, holding herself with both hands, with a hint of sadness on her face: "Grandpa, you say, will it be Chen Xiao?" ”
Zhou Ding smiled and said, "Haven't you always been reluctant to know?" Why do you regret it now? ”
Zhou Yuxuan's eyes widened and said seriously: "Because I like him, I love him, so I want to know what our future will look like." ”
Zhou Ding looked at her meaningfully: "That's all? ”
"Hmmm......"
Zhou Yuxuan lowered her head again, she felt as if her grandfather had discovered something.
Seeing his granddaughter's appearance, Zhou Ding's expression was restrained, and a complicated color flashed in his eyes: "The farthest distance between knowing and doing everything in this world is the gap between knowing and doing, which is like torture for us who are destined for us." ”
"You know your fate, but you can't change it."
"Of course, about you and Chen Xiao...... You'll be together. ”
Zhou Yuxuan was stunned, and then jumped up excitedly: "Really?!" ”
"Of course, I'm in favor of that." Zhou Ding smiled at the corner of his mouth: "But the premise is, have you stepped into the life voyeur?" ”
"It's almost there, there's already a feeling of breakthrough..."
Zhou Yuxuan asked in a low voice: "I have become a peep master, does it have anything to do with us?" ”
Zhou Ding recovered his positive color and said: "It has a great relationship, you need to be promoted as soon as possible, and grandpa will also have something to explain to you at that time." ”
"Next Tuesday, call your little boyfriend over, and I'll show him his life."
"Oh!"
