Chapter 53: Brothers Know Each Other
The eight elders returned to see Huan Hao, and didn't mention it for the time being, just said that Nalan Qionglou and they sent the eight elders back to see Xiongba to return to life.
Several people immediately returned to see Xiongba's return to tell everyone about it, and Xiongba couldn't help but nod with joy.
"Well, I've had a good change. Xiongba approved, stretched out his hand and patted Qiong Lou's shoulder and said with a smile: "In this way, at least now they will not suspect Xiao Chen's true identity." ”
"Not necessarily. Qiong Lou responded: "The sudden appearance of Xuanyuan Wuji God should make them suspicious, and this time the Eighth Elder has suffered such a big loss in our place. They returned in vain, and I think it is necessary to report the situation to Huan Hao's side and shirk the responsibility of my own side. ”
"Hehe~ Trouble is naturally indispensable. ”
When Xiongba said this, he couldn't help but show an indifferent smile on his face.
"Well, it seems that we need to be more careful in our actions in the future. Qiong Lou nodded: "And I see that the eight old guys are not idle people, and they may not go and return in a few days." ”
"So what? As long as they don't have evidence, can my Nalan family still allow them to go wild like this?" Xiongba snorted, and at the same time, his face was full of disdain: "This time I came here to ask you for the things of the day before yesterday, and if I come again in the future, I would like to see what other reasons they can have." If they are sincere in looking for trouble, then I will receive them personally. ”
"Father's words are very true, but I don't think it's a long-term solution for the long run, right?"
While frowning slightly, Cangqiong also said with a smile on his face.
"Oh, what do you mean by that?"
As Xiongba asked, he couldn't help but cast his doubtful gaze on the young sky sitting not far from him.
"It's nothing, it's just that I think if this temptation continues, sooner or later our jihua will be exposed. Cangqiong said indifferently: "And once Jihua is revealed and Xiao Chen's identity is exposed, then the war between us and the Honghuai Society will begin, isn't it?" But judging from the current situation, the strength of the Honghuai Society is very strong in Xiongzhou after all, although our Nalan family has more than enough financial resources, but if we prove it against them, I am afraid that we will definitely suffer." ”
"That's why we need to develop our strength immediately and quickly. ”
Qiong Lou answered, and at the same time looked at the sky, and at the same time, an indifferent look of doubt appeared between his eyebrows.
"Hehe~ This is natural, but if you come and go like this, you will always be tempted, and Honghuai will inevitably be wary of us, isn't it?" Cangqiong replied with a smile: "Although it is necessary to enhance our strength, if we have been passive and can't convert passive into active, I'm afraid that even if we enhance our strength, we will be limited by the other party." ”
Qiong Lou nodded, and at the same time looked at the face of the sky and began to be silent.
"And what are your plans?"
While Xiongba asked like this, he couldn't help but cast his embarrassed gaze to the sky. The sky blinked and was silent for a moment, then finally chose to shake his head with a smile. Xiongba was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly.
The men discussed with each other for a while, and then dispersed. Xiongba looked displeased when he walked out of the lobby, and Qionglou beside him couldn't help shaking the folding fan and smiling indifferently when he saw it.
"Father, what's wrong?"
Qiong Lou looked at Xiongba's somewhat gloomy face, and couldn't help but ask.
"It seems a little strange today. Xiongba said a little unhappily: "This kid seems to be deliberately selling off with me." Useless words said a big car, but when I Zuihou asked for a plan, he couldn't do anything. Isn't this a deliberate attempt to add trouble to my heart?"
"Hehe~ I look at it, it's my father, you're not. ”
"Oh?"
Xiongba was stunned for a moment, and then the doubts in his eyes were even worse.
"Cangqiong's temperament, wouldn't my father know after so many years of getting along?" Qiong Lou smiled indifferently, still looking relaxed at this time: "Although he is young, he is better than ordinary people when it comes to his mind. I don't think he would ever say it if it wasn't useful, but since he did, I think he would have his own unique opinion. ”
"Oh, do you think he's already thought of a solution to the problem?" asked Xiongba in surprise, and the hesitation on his face deepened, "But in that case, why doesn't he say it?"
"Hehe~ I think my father needs to ask him about this matter. Qiong Lou said with a smile: "I think he doesn't say it, so naturally there is a reason why he doesn't say it." Since it is inconvenient to say it in front of us, wouldn't it be better for my father to go to him alone at night and see what different opinions he would have?"
"Well, that's true. ”
Xiongba nodded, and at the same time, his questioning gaze was locked on Qiong Lou again. Qiong Lou raised his eyebrows in the face of the gaze projected by Xiongba at this time, and then smiled indifferently.
"Father, is there anything else?"
"The sky is your brother. He has an idea in his heart but doesn't want to explain it in front of you, won't you be heartbroken if he does this?"
While Xiongba asked, his eyes were also staring at Qionglou more positively. Qiong Lou's face was still full of indifferent smiles, and he shook his head lightly.
"It's because he's my brother that I don't get upset about it. Qiong Lou still looked relaxed: "He didn't say that he naturally had his reasons." I don't know exactly what the reason is, but now I can be sure that he won't shy away from it because of me. ”
"That's right. ”
Xiongba nodded, and then a smile appeared on his hesitant face.
"Father, let's go and see the sky in the evening, as I said. Qiong Lou exhaled lightly, and then couldn't help but smile and said, "I believe that the sky will definitely give my father a crucial plan this time. Although I still can't figure out the content of this plan, I have a hunch that maybe the time has come for us to really subvert the Honghuai Society. ”
Qiong Lou said, and then left with his head held high. Xiongba looked at his departing back, and couldn't help but smile indifferently and nodded.
At night, Xiongba came alone outside the room in the sky. Although the night was deep, the lights still flickered in the firmament. Xiongba wandered in the courtyard, and for a while he didn't know what to say when he saw his little son.
"Is it the father?"
While Xiongba was thinking about how to find a word, there was a young voice like a silver bell from the sky in the room.
"Oh, yes. ”
Xiongba replied with a smile.
"Since my father is here, please come in!" while smiling indifferently, the sky immediately said through the window: "In addition, the door is not locked, and my son has been waiting for my father for a long time. ”
"Huh?"
Xiongba was surprised in his heart, and he was surprised when he thought of Qiong Lou earlier. He strode open the door and entered, but saw the firmament sitting under the lamp at his desk reading a book. Xiongba looked at his son under the lamp suspiciously, at this time he didn't ask about the seller in the sky in the morning first, but was more curious about what he was waiting for now.
"Do you know I'm coming?"
"Hehe~ When the child was discussing in the morning, he left a suspense, and he knew that his father would definitely come. While the sky slowly put down the book in his hand, he couldn't help but look at Xiongba with confidence: "And my son has long expected it, that is, even if this suspense can be hidden from his father, he can't hide it from his brother at all." Although I have offended my father a lot, I ask my father to forgive me. That's why you're able to come to see me this time, and I think it's my brother's suggestion, right?"
