A string of strange noises like firecrackers erupted from Hong Yu's body.
That is the process of changes occurring in the joints and muscles during a breakthrough.
"Wow, it feels so comfortable."
Hong Yu exhaled a breath of turbid air, opened his eyes, and felt energetic all over his body. He murmured with a smile: "From today on, I will be a monk at the eighth level of Qi refining. If I go one step further, I will reach the peak of Qi refining."
"At that time, I will use the night-light pearl that sister Ling'er bought for me at the last auction to break through the Qi refining stage and become a foundation-building monk. Then I can truly be called an immortal cultivator.
Already."
Jingle bell bell!
Just when Hong Yu was happy, the cell phone on the bedside rang.
He picked it up and saw that it was a call from Mr. Xiao.
Hong Yu instantly remembered that he had spoken to Mr. Xiao the day before yesterday. Mr. Xiao said that Xiao Ling'er would come back from Magic City yesterday.
You must have called me today to ask me to come and sit down.
After all, in Mr. Xiao's heart, he is Xiao Linger's real boyfriend.
Although he was helpless about this identity, since he agreed to Xiao Ling'er, Hong Yu would naturally help him to the end and would not take the initiative to expose it.
Get on the phone.
Mr. Xiao's hearty laughter immediately came from the other end of the phone: "Xiaoyu, it's so early, so I didn't bother you, right?"
Hong Yu smiled and said: "Don't bother me, I woke up long ago."
"Haha, that's good."
Mr. Xiao said with a smile: "I'm calling you because I have nothing else to do. It's just that Ling'er went home yesterday. It's probably because the things in the magic city made her upset, which made her not in a very good mood."
"So, I would like to invite you to come and sit at home and spend some time with Ling'er. Are you free?"
Hearing that Xiao Ling'er was in a bad mood, Hong Yu was quite worried and said, "Okay, Mr. Xiao, I'll go over after breakfast."
Mr. Xiao said: "Come over now, I've prepared breakfast for you."
"That's...okay!"
Hong Yu smiled helplessly, Mr. Xiao was really fast and resolute in his work.
"Well, that's it, see you later."
After hanging up the phone, Hong Yu got up, washed up quickly, said hello to his father, and drove away from the house.
"Xiaoyu, are you going out?!"
"Xiaoyu, are you going to the county town to do business again?"
"Xiaoyu, it's your Uncle Hua's birthday tomorrow. Come over for a meal if you have time."
On the road in the village, I met many villagers, and they all greeted Hong Yu warmly.
A month ago, that would have been impossible.
At that time, Hong Yu was borrowing money from everywhere because his father was seriously ill. Not to mention taking the initiative to say hello to him, the villagers would immediately turn their heads aside when they saw him, pretending not to see him, just like they were afraid that he would borrow money.
In less than an hour, Hong Yu arrived at Xiao's house.
Mr. Xiao had been waiting at the gate of the yard early, and saw him getting out of the car with a smile on his face.
"Xiaoyu, you came just in time. My aunt at home has just made breakfast. There are dumplings, porridge, noodles, and some snacks. Take a look and see what you like to eat."
Mr. Xiao brought Hong Yu into the villa and to the restaurant area.
"Mr. Xiao, where is sister Ling'er?"
Hong Yu didn't see Xiao Linger, so he asked.
"I didn't tell her you were coming, she was still sleeping in."
Mr. Xiao narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "How about you go to her room to wake her up for breakfast, and you can give her a surprise."
Ha... This Mr. Xiao is quite good at romance.
Hong Yu scratched his head and said, "But, sister Ling'er is sleeping. Isn't it appropriate for me to go in and shout?"
Mr. Xiao said: "What's inappropriate about this? Haven't you and Ling'er been in the same room for a long time?"
"What? Are you pretending to be shy in front of me, grandpa?"
Hong Yu: "..."
"Okay, I'll shout." Hong Yu was ashamed.
"That's right. It's like being at home here. Don't be too restrained. Just relax."
Mr. Xiao said: "Ling'er lives in the east room on the second floor. The door should be unlocked. You can just go in."
Hong Yu nodded, turned and walked towards the stairs.
After a while, he came to the door of the room that Mr. Xiao mentioned.
When I opened my consciousness, I saw that Xiao Ling'er was sleeping inside.
After struggling a little internally, Hong Yu finally turned the door handle, pushed the door open and walked into the room.
Coming to the bedside and looking at Xiao Ling'er who was sleeping soundly, Hong Yu called out softly:
"Sister Ling'er."
Xiao Ling'er, who was sleeping soundly, vaguely heard someone calling her name, and the voice was so familiar, it was the voice of her thoughts day and night.
"Brother Xiaoyu, is that you?"
Xiao Ling'er's eyes were closed, but her mouth was talking.
"Sister Ling'er, it's me." Hong Yu said.
It seemed that the voice was really Brother Xiaoyu's. Xiao Linger gradually regained consciousness and slowly opened her eyes.
The figure that caught his eye could not be Hong Yu.
"I'm not dazzled, brother Xiaoyu, is it really you?"
Xiao Linger wiped her eyes and exclaimed.
Hong Yu smiled and said, "Well, it's me."
"Brother Xiaoyu, why are you here?"
Xiao Ling'er was so happy that she climbed up from the quilt.
Because I was only wearing a suspender pajamas, the spring scenery was looming.
Especially when I lower my head, the ravine is obvious.
It was obvious that Hong Yu's body was filled with heat.
He quickly looked away and said: "Mr. Xiao called me and told me that you were in a bad mood after you came back from Magic City yesterday and asked me to come over and stay with you."
"Oh, grandpa asked you to come here." Xiao Linger looked a little disappointed.
Seeing that the woman didn't seem very happy when he said this, Hong Yu quickly said: "Actually, I wanted to come myself. It's weird that I haven't seen sister Ling'er for so long."
"Really?" Xiao Ling'er's originally low mood suddenly became high again.
"Of course." Hong Yu nodded.
Xiao Ling'er chuckled and said happily: "Ling'er misses brother Xiaoyu very much, but I have encountered some troubles these days, so I didn't call you to say hello to brother Xiaoyu. Aren't you angry?"
"It's okay. We don't need to rely on phone calls to maintain our relationship," Hong Yu said.
Xiao Ling'er nodded, and her heart was as sweet as honey. She thought to herself: "Brother Xiaoyu is confessing to me with these words? He said that the love between us is as strong as gold? Even if we don't contact each other at ordinary times, our relationship cannot be shaken.
."
Hong Yu naturally didn't know that his casual words would make women think wildly.
He said: "Sister Ling'er, I heard Mr. Xiao say that the reason why you are in a bad mood is that the company your parents left you is in poor condition?"
Xiao Ling'er said "hmm" and said: "The company's industry prospects are not good. It has suffered losses in the past two years and is facing the risk of delisting. At this shareholders' meeting, the shareholders all suggested selling the company because it is the right time.
There is a large and powerful company that has taken a fancy to our company and plans to acquire it and then go public through a backdoor listing."
Hong Yu asked: "Is it the price the other party gave you that dissatisfied you?"
Xiao Linger shook her head: "No, the price offered by the other party is very good, much higher than the market price."
"Then this is a good thing. Why are you unhappy?" Hong Yu didn't understand.
"Because I don't want to sell." Xiao Ling'er said: "This company is the hard work of my parents. It is the fruit of their hard work. Just by looking at me, it is also the fruit of their love, so I want to keep it forever.
"
"So that's it."
Hong Yu suddenly realized, "Then you didn't ask your uncle and aunt for their opinions?"
"They founded this together, and they probably don't want it to be acquired by other companies, right?"
Mentioning this, Xiao Ling'er became even more depressed, "Brother Xiaoyu, I thought so too at the time, but when I called them to ask for their opinions, they all agreed to sell it and even advised me to sell it."
"They said that if they sell it now, they can earn at least several billion more. When it is delisted, no one will take over. By then, the price will be determined by anyone."
"Perhaps in their eyes, profit comes first. As long as it is profitable, they can give up anything and don't care. Just like when they left me alone in Jiangling for their own career."
