Chapter 194: Ambivalence
Next.
By the time Bai Yu woke up, there was already one more guest in the room.
The door was open, and in the hallway outside stood six bodyguards dressed in black, wearing sunglasses and headsets.
In the living room, there was a man in a Tang costume sitting in a guest seat, his hair was combed to the top of his head, his hair was gray, and his face looked at least fifty years old, but his bearing was calm, even if he was not dressed in gold and silver, he could see at a glance that he was in a high position for a long time.
And the person in charge of entertaining this middle-aged man was Qin Xueyu.
At this time, Su Ruoli and Hua Li did not wake up.
Bai Yu walked into the bathroom, washed up briefly, and sat down after serving a bowl of rice porridge.
His attitude is very casual, it was originally his own home, the other party was a guest, and naturally he was a guest.
"Would you like something to eat?" Bai Yu looked at the middle-aged man.
"No, he's eaten." Qin Xueyu said casually: "And I only made breakfast for four people." β
The middle-aged man's expression showed a little helplessness, he shook his head and said, "After so many years, you are still so careful." β
"I'm not stingy, but I'm vindictive." Qin Xueyu looked at the middle-aged man with empty eyes: "Seven years have passed since the contract back then, so it is reasonable for me to continue to accept funding from you, and I don't like others to stumble me in the terms." β
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Although there was a problem with the original clause, the result was not implemented, after all, you had lost consciousness before this." β
Qin Xueyu said coldly: "I originally prepared a knife to stab you, but I haven't had time to stab you yet, please forgive meβwhat do you mean?" β
"There is a problem with the terms, but it is not as serious as you think, and it is just a countermeasure when necessary."
"The honey-bellied sword is talking about businessmen like you." Qin Xueyu's expression was indifferent: "I won't sign a contract with you, and everyone here won'tβand I warn you, if you dare to attack my family's Yujing's idea, I trouble you to prepare to be an enemy of a fifth-order transcendent in the future." β
The middle-aged man glanced at Bai Yu, and then withdrew his gaze, the expression of the tigress who was protecting the calf on the other side was not fake.
"Well, it's actually an accident to meet you here, I didn't come to you on purpose."
"I got the news, my daughter, it should be in this house."
When Qin Xueyu heard this, she thought of the girl from yesterday, and asked casually: "Hua Li?" β
"You heard her name and should also be aware of our relationship."
"Hua Tianming, you are almost sixty years old, will she be your daughter?" Qin Xueyu's face was full of disbelief.
"It's not uncommon to be a girl, my wife's daughter was born at the age of thirty-nine." Hua Tianming explained plainly that he had a total of five children, the eldest died young, and the other four children, three were sons and only one daughter, and over-spoiling the youngest was the norm in every big family.
Qin Xueyu was not interested in his family background at all: "It turned out that I came to pick up my runaway daughter, this matter has nothing to do with me, but I have to ask her own opinion, if she doesn't want to go back, you can't use force...... This is my residence after all. β
Bai Yu took a sip of rice porridge, and while watching the play silently, he complained in his heart that this house is clearly in my name, why are you more like the head of the family than me.
He said to Qin Xueyu, "You go and call her?" β
"Okay." Qin Xueyu stood up, then bent down close to Bai Yu's ear, whispered, and his breath blew into his ear: "Don't agree to all the requests of this black-hearted businessman." β
Hua Tianming: "I heard it. β
"I said it to you on purpose."
Bang!
The bedroom door was opened and closed.
Bai Yu thought that they should have woken up, but now they were just looking for a reason to send Hua Tianming away.
"Hua Li probably doesn't want to go back." He said, "Are you strict in your family? β
Hua Tianming sighed with a headache: "Where will it be, I don't have any requirements for this child, whatever she likes, it's just ......"
"Just?"
"Who would have thought that she also had the qualifications of a transcendent?" Hua Tianming's tone was also quite surprised: "In our family, most of the family children's talents are white or blue level, but Xiao Li is a yellow level talent. β
"It's not that ordinary blue talent can't be cultivated." Bai Yu said as he chewed on the fritters.
"But it is difficult for the holder of the blue talent to break through the bottleneck, while the yellow level talent is expected to be a third-order transcendent within twenty years." Hua Tianming's five fingers clenched: "But this kind of talent is really one in a hundred." β
Bai Yu asked rhetorically: "Is there one?" β
There are really a lot of yellow talents in the school, at least five or six in each class, and there can be one or two purple ones.
Hua Tianming said: "You students who can study in the third year of high school are already one in a hundred to a large extent. β
Bai Yu asked again: "A transcendent third-order within twenty years is very important to the Hua family?" β
Hua Tianming didn't answer this question, but said, "Do you know the Ruan family? β
ββ¦β¦ Ruan Qingxue is my classmate, and I also know Ruan Qingshan. β
"The previous Ruan family was also a successful business family, but the Ruan family did not have their own transcendent...... Although there was some nepotism, there were a few good offerings, but in the end they were wiped out overnight. Hua Tianming's fingers tapped on the table: "For ordinary people, high-level transcendence is an important way to leapfrog the class, and for those of us who have some wealth and a large number of clansmen, it is also a necessary guarantee, it must be related to relatives, and outsiders are unreliable." β
"While we invest in some financially struggling geniuses every year to plan for the future, ...... As you can see, this kind of reciprocity is only a favor that is not too heavy for the high-level transcendent. β
"If you don't leave a text trap on the treaty, Xue Yu won't be so indignant, after all, she hates betrayers the most." Bai Yu touched his eyebrows: "Is it because of the collapse of the Ruan family that you have a sense of crisis?" Therefore, at this time, the pressure was exerted on Hua Li, who was the only one who could be transcendent in the third order, which caused her to not return home at night. β
Hua Tianming said slowly: "Of course we also want to slow down, the last movie world incident also sounded the alarm for us...... It's just that it's been two months, and she's still the same as always, and she doesn't want to be diligent in practicing at all, seeing that the college entrance examination is approaching, the family has set a goal for her, maybe it's a little excessive, but we are all ......"
"Good for her?" Bai Yu's eyes were like torches and he asked, "Or is it for your own good?" β
Hua Tianming's face changed slightly: "This is ......"
"This is a matter of our family, and we don't need you outsiders to intervene." Bai Yu predicted in advance.
ββ¦β¦β
"It's a clichΓ©, it's really boring."
"A genius like you naturally won't understand our pressure." Hua Tianming said: "I want to take my daughter back, and I hope you don't stop it, what I just said is just a reason!" β
Bai Yu burped, his face did not change and his heart did not beat: "I am very familiar with the Zhou team of the Long Night Division, you can try it if you want to be rough." β
Hua Tianming looked at this teenager, the usual teenager's temperament is to eat soft rather than hard, and even geniuses and adults have a great temperament contrast.
However, Bai Yu's attitude is very in line with his perception of adult social animals, and he has to be the kind of old fritter in the workplace, and even the boss can't easily handle the rotten person.
Do not eat soft and hard.
After confronting Bai Yu for a while, Hua Tianming received a phone call, and after a few words of conversation, he said to the other end of the phone: "I know." β
Hanging up the communication, he raised his voice: "Li'er! I know you're awake...... On the phone just now, your grandfather is almost dying, do you still insist on not going back with me! β
No response.
looked at the constricted bedroom door, and then looked at Bai Yu: "I'll come back tomorrow." β
With that, he left.
Before leaving, he was still as imposing as ever...... But for Bai Yu, who has seen strong winds and waves, it is really nothing.
He closed the door and shouted, "The man is gone." β
The bedroom door was pushed open, and two well-dressed girls came out of it.
"Where's Hua Li?"
"Curled up in the bed, like a quail."
"That's probably scared."
"Scared?" Qin Xueyu raised her eyebrows: "She is obviously laughing wildly." β
Bai Yu: "? β
"Ahem, I'm not, I don't." Hua Li walked out of the room, still wearing pajamas, and deliberately pretended to be pitiful and said, "I'm scared!" So, please keep taking care of my poor helpless but edible little cutie! I'll scrub the dishes! β
"Let's go wash up first, and then eat." Su Ruoli said gently, she really didn't care much about all this.
Bai Yu asked, "Your father also said just now, your grandfather is seriously ill now, and you don't plan to go back to take a look?" β
"Of course I don't plan to go back." Hua Li had a newly opened toothbrush in her mouth, and her eyes reflected in the mirror were silent and flat: "Because my grandfather died a few years ago." β
