Chapter 131: Two Invitations
Luo Zhuo spent a day with Wen Ya in Zhu Siwei's club like a vacation, and of course a few light bulbs were indispensable in this process, but Luo Zhuo also found that Wang Qishao, who was a little flamboyant at the beginning, actually didn't hate it, although some of the children of the family were arrogant, but on the whole he was still a hearty young man.
At first, the mustard quickly disappeared under Wang Qishao's deliberate welcome, and in the end, he negotiated a business with Zhu Siwei that Luo Zhuo didn't know very well, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise for Zhu Siwei, and he was worried about offending Qishao, but he didn't expect Wang Qishao to pay more attention to him.
After rejecting Wang Qishao's repeated invitations, Luo Zhuo and the others left before dark. After leaving, Luo Zhuo first sent Wen Ya back to the dormitory, and then returned home with Bai Zhantang and Sonam and a snow leopard, and just walked to the mouth of the alley, he saw a Rolls-Royce parked at the mouth of the alley, and when Luo Zhuo's car passed by, the Rolls-Royce sounded the whistle.
Luo Zhuo stopped the car, and as soon as he rolled down the window, he saw a crane-haired and childish figure coming down from the Rolls-Royce, it was Qiao Mengyuan's grandfather, Qiao Shifeng, who had a relationship not long ago.
"Mr. Luo, please forgive me for taking the liberty of visiting. Qiao Shifeng was wearing a well-fitting Tang costume, looking exactly like the kind of respectable old man in the TV series, and he also had his own aura when he spoke, which made people feel a little good.
"Looking for me?" Luo Zhuo said indifferently.
"If Mr. Luo doesn't mind, find a place to talk?" Qiao Shifeng said.
Luo Zhuo thought for a moment and said, "You wait for me here." With that, he started the car and drove into the garage. Luo Zhuo didn't really want to have too much contact with these families, but seeing that Qiao Shifeng also looked like he had been waiting for a long time, Luo Zhuo was not too indifferent, since he wanted to talk, let's talk with him.
Send Bai Zhantang and them back, talk about this kind of thing, Bai Zhantang is not interested at all, Sonam was going to serve with Luo Zhuo, but Luo Zhuo refused, nonsense, he is not seventy or eighty years old and needs someone to serve, what danger can a Qiao Shifeng bring him?
When he went out, Luo Zhuo saw an envelope on the ground inside the door, thinking that it was a big bird who had come, and he really stuffed the invitation card of the martial arts conference through the crack in the door, Luo Zhuo threw it into the storage space casually, and walked back to the mouth of the alley.
"What are you talking about?" Luo Zhuo asked straight to the point.
"Mr. Luo, please get in the car. Qiao Shifeng personally opened the car door, made a gesture of please, and said.
Luo Zhuo got into the car without hesitation, since he agreed to talk to Qiao Shifeng, Luo Zhuo was very happy, just a car, he didn't dare to get on?
When Qiao Mengyuan left, Luo Zhuo deliberately avoided it, and now it was really a little embarrassing to meet, not that Luo Zhuo fell in love with Qiao Mengyuan, but at that time Luo Zhuo found that Qiao Mengyuan's attitude towards him was a little kind, and she was a little angry because Luo Zhuo turned her grandfather away, so Luo Zhuo took the opportunity to cut off that trace of hazy and emotional debts, and Luo Zhuo didn't want to have too much.
"It's been a long time since I've seen Miss Qiao. Luo Zhuo laughed twice and said. Since we met, I can't say hello or fight.
"It's only been a few days. Qiao Mengyuan's voice was a little cold, and when Qiao Shifeng also got into the car, she drove without saying a word, she didn't speak, Luo Zhuo naturally didn't say much, Qiao Shifeng also kept quiet, and it didn't take long for the car to stop in front of a pharmacy.
"This Chinese medicine store is where I settled in the capital, it is a little simple, but it is quite quiet, Mr. Luo will take a look. Walking directly into the backyard of the pharmacy, Qiao Shifeng said with a smile.
"Just say it straight, don't beat around the bush. Luo Zhuo waved his hand and said.
In front of this pharmacy is a small three-story building, and behind it is a courtyard, which is so antique that even the room where they are staying now is lit with incense. Luo Zhuo and Qiao Shifeng sat opposite each other, and Qiao Mengyuan quietly withdrew after putting down two cups of tea.
"Mr. Luo saved Yuanyuan, I haven't thanked you in person, thank you Mr. first. Qiao Shifeng arched his hand and said.
"If that's all there is to it, then there's no need, I said I saved her because she saved me, so I don't need to thank her. Luo Zhuo said.
"That being said, I can't act like nothing happened. Qiao Shifeng said, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, put it on the table, and said: "The value of this bottle of elixir is not clear to Yuanyuan, but I know very well, refining medicine for Yuanyuan, it is within my family's duty to produce medicinal materials, Mr. Luo's willingness to refine medicine is already a great affection, this medicine, I can't accept it." ”
"I won't take advantage of you, it's an exchange, it's an exchange. Luo Zhuo said.
"I understand what Mr. Luo means, you don't want to owe anyone anything, but my Qiao family has a group training, and I shouldn't take anything from my own things. Qiao Shifeng said: "You have repaid Yuanyuan's salvation by refining the medicine, and we can't accept this medicine." ”
"Zu Xun? Luo Zhuo said playfully: "If there is really this ancestral training, I don't have to work so hard, where did her Huang Yadan go, don't tell me you don't know." ”
Qiao Shifeng blushed, he was the first to know about Qiao Mengyuan getting Huang Yadan, it was impossible to say that he didn't have any thoughts, but he really wouldn't shamelessly take his granddaughter's life-saving medicine.
It's just that later Qiao Mengyuan felt guilty that she had consumed a lot of medicinal materials in her family over the years, and took the initiative to take out Huang Yadan and give it to some people in the family, including the Qiao Jingyu that Luo Zhuo had seen, and the second uncle of Qiao Mengyuan who was slapped by Luo Zhuo.
This is also the reason why Luo Zhuo made a move on Qiao Mengyuan's second uncle when they met for the first time, otherwise he would not think that he would teach him a lesson if he pointed at himself, mainly because Luo Zhuo smelled the medicinal fragrance of Huang Ya Dan on his body, Qiao Jingyu can say that he does not know the truth about Huang Ya Dan, but this person is in his forties, and it is impossible for the heirs of the Chinese medicine family not to know the value of Huang Ya Dan, he can even use his niece's life-saving medicine, and Luo Zhuo slapped him lightly.
Of course, Qiao Shifeng only knew these things after the fact, Qiao Mengyuan's second uncle had also been punished by him and returned to the family to think about it, he asked Luo Zhuo to return the pill that Luo Zhuo used to exchange medicinal materials this time, and he was not unapologetic, after all, if there was no such thing, Luo Zhuo would not have to work hard to refine the pill again, Qiao Shifeng understood better than anyone how difficult it was to save Qiao Mengyuan's life.
"It's really my fault that I didn't raise my godfather. Qiao Shifeng didn't shirk, and said directly: "Because of this, I can't even control this bottle of pill, because of my reasons, Mr. Luo has spent a lot of effort, which in itself has made me embarrassed." ”
"Man, husband, don't want mother-in-law and mother-in-law, I said that if I give it to you, I will give it to you, I don't want to throw it away, if there is nothing else, I will go first. Luo Zhuo waved his hand and said.
Qiao Shifeng was silent, and after a while, he spoke: "Dare to ask Mr. Luo if his ancestor is from the cultivation realm?"
"What do you mean?" Luo Zhuo raised his head and said, the light in his eyes flashed, and Qiao Shifeng thought he was dazzled.
"It's not a secret, the first time I saw Huang Ya Dan, I had a guess that Huang Ya Dan was rumored to be an elixir in the cultivation realm, and it was not passed on in the world. Qiao Shifeng said, "After meeting Mr. Luo, I felt that Mr. Luo was a little familiar, and I pondered for many days, and I finally remembered that Mr. Luo was somewhat similar to the character in an ancient painting in my family, which was a senior in the cultivation realm, so I wondered if Mr. Luo was the descendant of that person." ”
"Yes, people are alike, and there's nothing strange about it. That's not my ancestors. Luo Zhuo said, he didn't remember anyone surnamed Qiao he knew before, but he was famous in the cultivation world back then, and it was not surprising that anyone had seen him.
"That's right. Qiao Shifeng muttered: "It's just that the painting is not here, otherwise you can give Mr. Luo a look, forget it, don't mention this, since Mr. Luo refuses to take back the pill, then this Mr. Luo must accept it, of course, this is not my Qiao family's return." ”
Qiao Shifeng took out something from under the table and handed it to Luo Zhuo.
Luo Zhuo took it, the expression on his face was very playful, and Qiao Shifeng handed over an invitation made of gold leaf, with a few big characters written on the cover of the world's first martial arts club.
