Chapter 57: The Family Feast

"Eat again?" Qin Xiao asked with some surprise.

Zhao Ruling lowered his head and whispered, "My dad wants to see you." ”

"Oh?"

"Yikes!"

Haishan and Haiyue let out a strange cry respectively, looking at Qin Xiao and Zhao Ruling with ambiguous eyes.

"What's the situation? This is the time to meet the parents? Haishan said with a smile.

The most annoying thing was Hu Yange, who pinched his chin and analyzed: "It shouldn't be, it's very troublesome for Miss to finalize her marriage." ”

A few people said a word, which made Zhao Ruling even more embarrassed, she waved her hand again and again and said: "No, it's not what you think." ”

Unexpectedly, Qin Xiao pretended to have a disappointed expression, and said in frustration: "Ah, isn't it about marriage?" Then I'm not going. ”

"Huh?"

Zhao Ruling was completely dumbfounded, and the hands that were swinging couldn't help but stop, and he looked at Qin Xiao with an expression of disbelief.

"I'm just kidding, what do you all look like?" Seeing that everyone was scared silly, Qin Xiao said with a smile.

Qin Xiao's little joke certainly eliminated Zhao Ruling's embarrassment, but what he didn't notice was a trace of loss flashing in Zhao Ruling's eyes.

After the joke, Qin Xiao said seriously: "I really want to meet your family." ”

"What?" Zhao Ruling was taken aback again, and then hurriedly asked, "Team Qin, aren't you joking this time?" ”

"yes, no kidding." Qin Xiao nodded seriously and said.

Finally, under the leadership of Zhao Ruling, everyone came to Zhao's house.

Although they had long known that the Zhao family was a big family on the rich side and the most financially powerful among the four major families, after really seeing the scale of the Zhao family, everyone couldn't help but exclaim.

The so-called Zhao family doesn't actually feel like "home", it is a complex of three mechanical buildings.

At a glance, you can see that these three mechanical buildings have good defense capabilities, and if something happens, the mechanical buildings can immediately become mechanical fortresses.

Qin Xiao was shocked not by the Zhao family's wealth, but by the design of the defense system of the three mechanical buildings.

As the so-called no-nonsense people under the fame, they can become one of the four major families on the Elan Star, and the strength of the Zhao family should indeed not be underestimated.

Tonight's banquet was held in the main building in the middle, and Zhao Ruling said that it was just the most ordinary family banquet, but every food on the table was worth a lot.

This is the favorite energy package of the stars, and everyone who has just completed a day of high-intensity exams will suddenly have their eyes lit up when they see this table of good things.

Perhaps in order to make everyone relaxed enough, Zhao Ruling's father Zhao Lin did not show up for the first time.

Under Zhao Ruling's greeting, everyone unceremoniously began to eat and drink.

It wasn't until the energy package was wiped out and the table was once again filled with ordinary banquet delicacies that Zhao Lin Shi Ran walked into the restaurant.

Hu Yange was the first to stand up and said respectfully: "Master." ”

Zhao Lin carefully examined Hu Yange, and finally nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad." ”

Hu Yange was neither humble nor arrogant, and returned the salute with a smile.

Haishan and Haiyue were so nervous that they didn't know what to do, this was the biggest big man their brother and sister had ever seen in their lives, and they were a little unadjusted for a while.

Qin Xiao slapped Haishan on the back angrily and said, "Eat well, and you don't need to do anything." ”

Zhao Lin caught this detail, he looked at Qin Xiao with a smile and asked, "I've always been curious, how did you come up with the idea of letting a living Qi Tong go back?" ”

Qin Xiao didn't expect Zhao Lin's opening remarks to be this, but he still quickly replied: "I don't have any special thoughts, I just want to disgust them, maybe it's my intuition." ”

"That's a good intuition." Zhao Lin said with a smile.

Regarding Zhou Chen's attempt to calculate Zhao Ruling, it is said that the most divine operation is that at the end of the matter, the military department directly caught Qi Tong who was alive.

But Qi Tong became stupid and stupid, the original value was completely invalidated, and all the original preparations of the Zhou family became a joke.

Zhao Lin wanted to see Qin Xiao because of Qin Xiao's last release.

Now that he is really in contact, Zhao Lin can already judge that Qin Xiao's so-called "intuition" should not be a complete lie, but more importantly, Qin Xiao's ability to do things is really outstanding.

After the meal, Zhao Lin put down the tableware and asked straight to the point, "Are you interested in coming to me to do things?" ”

As soon as he heard his father say this, Zhao Ruling was speechless for a moment of nervousness.

What she was most worried about was this, with her understanding of Qin Xiao, it was absolutely impossible to do things for any family.

Sure enough, Qin Xiao resolutely refused: "I don't have any plans to do things outside yet, I just want to go to school." ”

"There is no conflict, you can go to school with peace of mind first, and I will be responsible for all the expenses during the study period, as long as it is ......"

Without waiting for Zhao Lin to finish speaking, Zhao Ruling reminded in a low voice on the side: "Dad, Qin Xiao is a special enrollment of the Broken Academy, and the fee has long been waived." ”

"It's just the regular cost that is free, and we can still be responsible for other special uses." Zhao Lin said confidently.

As a result, what he got was still Qin Xiao's clean rejection.

Zhao Lin was not annoyed by Qin Xiao's successive refusals, but continued to talk calmly.

While speaking, Zhao Lin's housekeeper sent in four cards, and after Zhao Lin took them, he got up and personally put the cards in front of Qin Xiao and the others.

"This is a congratulatory gift for you, and it can be regarded as a celebration for you in advance." Zhao Lin said after putting down the card.

Qin Xiao picked up the card and found that it was a prepaid card, and the amount was not indicated in the card, but it was clearly stated that he could use this card to create a second-order quality mechanical light armor.

In addition to light armor, you can also create a set of weapons and equipment, again without any amount of money.

The actual value of such a card is at least hundreds of thousands of star diamonds, and even if you really let go of your hands and feet to build, it is not impossible to spend millions of star diamonds.

And this kind of card, Zhao Lin actually gave away four cards.

He didn't take much care of Qin Xiao alone, but sent cards to the Haishan brothers and sisters and Hu Yange equally.

After reading the content of the card clearly, Haishan and Haiyue became more nervous, and subconsciously wanted to excuse themselves.

Hu Yange even got up directly and made it clear: "Master, this gift is too heavy. ”

Seeing that a few people were not angry, Qin Xiao hurriedly got up and helped them pack the cards.

"This is the concern of the elders for our juniors, and it would be rude to excuse ourselves, so put things away quickly."

After helping them put away the cards, Qin Xiao turned to look at Zhao Lin and said, "Then thank you Boss Zhao." ”

Zhao Lin didn't seem to expect Qin Xiao to be so happy at first, but when he saw that the things were sent out, he still nodded with satisfaction.

"Qin Xiao, this thing is too valuable...... Haishan said with some trepidation.

Qin Xiao glared at him angrily, and said in a deep voice: "Less nonsense, put it away!" ”

This matter Zhao Lin did made Qin Xiao feel very comfortable, although the other party kept saying that he was giving a congratulatory gift, in fact, what he really gave was a thank you gift.

What he wants to thank is naturally Zhao Ruling's "stupid" incident not long ago.

It is indeed a good solution to replace the thank-you gift with a congratulatory gift and take that incident lightly.

Qin Xiao has always been unsuccessful, but he did something this time, so naturally he would not refuse the benefits he should take.

Especially when the day of the death duel with Zhou Sheng is approaching, his mechanical light armor and weapons must be re-equipped as soon as possible, Zhao Lin's "congratulatory gift" is really a timely rain.

Boss Zhao is a kind person.

After being full of wine and food and taking a lot of benefits, tonight's family banquet finally made Qin Xiao completely satisfied.

At the time of parting, Qin Xiao suddenly took out a chip from his body, handed it to Zhao Lin and said, "Boss Zhao, I also have a gadget for you, so take it as a return gift." ”

Zhao Lin looked at the chip and recognized it as a star diamond charging card at a glance.

The Star Diamond Charging Card is theoretically a kind of mechanical equipment, and its function is to store and release the star energy in the Star Diamond.

The Star Diamond Charge Card is the most common thing on the Elam Star, and it is not only used in the cultivation and combat process of the Star Warriors, but also in the daily transactions of ordinary people.

However, as a kind of mechanical equipment, there are also performance differences in Star Diamond charging cards.

In terms of performance, Starenergy charging cards are divided into low-level and high-level.

The ones circulating on the market are basically low-level charging cards, which are characterized by a larger capacity of star energy, but a slower release speed.

This characteristic of the low-level charge card determines that it can only be used as a transaction currency, or for low-level star warriors to use for cultivation.

If it is a Star Warrior who has cultivated above the Shattered Star Realm and cultivates with a low-level Star Diamond Charge Card, the Star Energy Supply Speed of the Charge Card is already completely incomplied.

At this time, you need to use a high-level Star Diamond Charging Card.

The star energy release speed of the high-level Star Diamond Charging Card is far faster than that of the low-level Star Diamond Charging Card, which can be fully used for the cultivation of Star Warriors at all stages.

But more importantly, the high-level Star Diamond Charge Card can be used as an energy source for Star Energy weapons and even mechs.

To be more precise, after human beings enter the era of mechanical civilization, the only "energy" that can be used is the high-end Star Diamond charging card.

If there is no high-level Star Diamond Charge Card, all Star Energy weapons will become scrap metal, and those mechs with super combat power can only become "metal mountains".

It is precisely because of this that people's pursuit of technical iteration of high-end Star Diamond charging cards has never stopped.

If the star stripe is the flower of civilization that has bloomed from the development of human civilization to the present, then the high-level star diamond charging card is the root of civilization.

At present, the technology of the high-level Star Diamond Charging Card used by the Star Pole Empire is the most advanced in the nearby star fields, but even so, it still cannot meet the needs of powerful Star Warriors and Legions for large energy consumption.

When he took the Star Diamond Charging Card handed over by Qin Xiao, Zhao Lin didn't pay much attention to it at first.

But when the person left, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and finally took out the Star Diamond Charging Card.

"Is there anything strange in this?"

Zhao Lin stared at the charging card for a while, deciding to verify his guess.
