Chapter 422: Joe’s Past
It was already ten o'clock in the morning when the two of them left the hotel.
Qiao Ling suggested going to the mall first.
Qi Tian naturally knew what Qiao Ling was going to do. After taking a taxi to the mall, Qi Tian did not go in with Qiao Ling. Instead, he sat in the rest area on the first floor of the mall and waited.
When I came to Tianhai, several waves of people appeared one after another in order to get the things left by Grandpa Qiao Ling, making the situation even more complicated and confusing.
Qi Tian sat in the lobby for more than 20 minutes, and Qiao Ling came over empty-handed: "I've bought it, let's go."
"Um."
Qitian nodded.
Today Qiao Ling made an appointment to have dinner with Mo Lang.
The two went to Morang's home, and the person who opened the door was a beautiful middle-aged woman with short hair.
"Girl Qiao, it's been a long time." The beautiful middle-aged woman gave Qiao Ling a hug, and then looked at Qi Tian, "Is this your boyfriend? He's so handsome! He matches you very well."
Qiao Ling blushed and said quickly: "Aunt Zhu Ran, this is Qi Tian, my friend, not my boyfriend."
"Not your boyfriend yet." Zhu Ran covered his mouth and smiled, "Let me tell you, this handsome boy is very popular. Girl Qiao, you have to grasp it."
"Okay." Mo Lang's voice sounded from inside the door, "What do you want to tell Girl Qiao? Why do you care so much about this young man's affairs?"
Zhu Ran rushed into the room and rolled his eyes, then said to Qiao Ling: "Girl Qiao, ignore your Uncle Mo, he doesn't understand anything. Come to Qitian, come in and sit down."
Zhu Ran enthusiastically welcomed Qi Tian and Qiao Ling into the house.
"Sit down for a while, Lao Mo. Go and get your son up quickly. He's still sleeping at what time it is! He drank again yesterday, right?"
Moran walked upstairs.
Soon, a sleepy-eyed Mo Lezhi walked down with an unhappy look on his face.
"Dad, what are you urging me to do? I have something to do in the afternoon. You have to let me sleep a little longer to recharge my energy."
"What can happen to you!" Mo Lang glared at Mo Lezhi and scolded, "You know how to gamble in just one day! Sooner or later, this family will be wiped out by you!"
Mo Lezhi looked disdainful: "What do you mean I gave up the gamble? Do you know how much money I won last night? More than 70 million! If this grandson hadn't influenced me, I would have won hundreds of millions yesterday!"
After Mo Lezhi finished speaking, he pointed at Qitian.
"Okay, what are you talking about?" Mo Lang scolded, he had seen Qi Tian's ability, "Hurry up and wash your face and tidy up before going out to eat."
Mo Lezhi's face was full of displeasure, but he still washed his face and tidied up.
At eleven o'clock, everyone set off to a restaurant.
Ordered a table of delicious food.
At the dinner table, Mo Lezhi looked at Qi Tian with a particularly unhappy look, and reminded him: "Qi, let me tell you, this afternoon's round is not for people like you to participate. You saw what happened last night. If you take
I don’t say anything when you use your own money to play, but you just use a woman’s money to play. I’m going to win a lot of money today, so don’t make trouble for me!”
Qi Tian said nothing.
Zhu Ran and Qiao Ling were chatting at the side: "Girl Qiao, your dad hasn't been back to Tianhai for a long time. Don't you have any plans when he will come back?"
"No." Qiao Ling shook her head, "My grandfather said at that time that our family would never come back."
"What a pity." Zhu Ran sighed, "Tell me, the Qiao family in Jiang District was so prosperous back then, but after you left, the whole Jiang District has become lonely."
"Okay, what are you talking about?" Mo Lang interrupted Zhu Ran, "Everyone has his own choice."
Soon, the food was served, and the meal was quite relaxed. At around 1:30, everyone left the hotel and read a book.
Mo Lezhi was thinking about the afternoon gambling game and was already making preparations.
Mo Lang walked up to Qi Tian and patted Qi Tian on the shoulder: "Xiao Qi, I know you are very capable, but things in the casino are very complicated, so you must be careful."
"Don't worry." Qi Tian smiled slightly.
Mo Lang took a deep look at Qi Tian, and then sighed: "It's all my fault. If these things hadn't happened, you and Girl Qiao wouldn't have been in such trouble. They would have taken their things and left. Although I, Mo Lang, It's not as good as it was back then, but it still has some weight in Tianhai. If you have anything to help, please let me know at any time."
"Okay." Qi Tian nodded.
Mo Lang didn't say much and drove away with Zhu Ran.
There are now two and a half hours left before the gambling begins.
Qitian and Qiao Ling returned to the hotel, sat in the lobby on the first floor, and ordered two cups of tea.
"Qiao Ling, could you please tell me about your family's past situation? The situation in Tianhai."
Qiao Ling thought for a while and said, "Our family was originally an underground force in Tianhai. At that time, the entire Jiang District belonged to our Qiao family's sphere of influence."
Qi Tian was startled for a moment: "Was your family so fierce before?"
Tianhai is an international metropolis, and its population is not comparable to that of a place like Tianyin.an5
Jiang District covers an area of about 12 square kilometers, but has a population of 260,000!
With this terrible population density, the entire Jiang District can be said to be a mixed bag, and the economy here is prosperous. It can be said that the benefits of controlling a Jiang District are greater than that of the entire Ning Province! It is also more difficult than controlling the underground forces of the entire Ning Province. Much harder!
Qiao Ling smiled: "I heard these things from my father and they have nothing to do with me. I have very few memories of Jiang District. When I was very young, my grandfather took my father to Tianyin. At that time It was very chaotic. Our family quickly took root with the help of people brought from Tianhai and established its own power. But gradually, my grandfather asked the family to start cleaning up, and it developed into the business it is now. All things related to underground forces Everything was abandoned, and now only a few companies and a hospital remain."
Qi Tian asked: "Where is your grandfather?"
"I don't know." Qiao Ling shook his head, with memories in his eyes, "My grandpa suddenly disappeared. In fact, at first I really wanted to ask you where my grandpa went. The reason why I called you was because Grandpa left us a jade pendant. When we encounter difficulties that cannot be solved, we can smash the jade pendant and contact the people inside."
Qi Tian noticed the hope in Qiao Ling's eyes and shook his head: "I'm sorry, I don't know. We have made similar entrustments and promises to many people."
Qiao Ling sighed: "Anyway, my grandfather suddenly disappeared. This has always been a mystery, but my family is used to it. After all, my grandfather's style of doing things has never been unpredictable."
Qi Tian tapped the table gently. It would not be easy to contact the person who can directly contact the Dragon King Palace. Regarding the information about Grandpa Qiao Ling, you can investigate more from within the Dragon King Palace.
"Ah, Qiao Ling!"
A voice suddenly sounded from the side.
Qiao Ling and Qi Tian looked along where the sound came from, and saw a beautifully dressed woman in her twenties walking over with an uncertain look on her face.
