"Haha!" Ye Qing couldn't help but smile and said: "That's right. You kid shouldn't be lifeless. Just like now, there is nothing wrong with joking more!"
Shangguan Pengcheng shrugged and said: "In fact, I also know that I look very serious, but that is only in front of outsiders, in front of my family, Sister Qing'er and Luoluo, I am not like that.
"
"Oh!" Ye Qing responded without saying anything.
After all, he and Shangguan Pengcheng had only known each other for a day. He didn't know what Shangguan Pengcheng's personality was like behind the scenes. Anyway, the Shangguan Pengcheng he saw looked lifeless.
Since Shangguan Pengcheng said this, Ye Qing believed it. Well... there was no need for Shangguan Pengcheng to lie to him about such a thing.
And he also understood what Shangguan Pengcheng meant by putting on a lifeless look in front of outsiders. This was for outsiders to see, so that outsiders would despise him.
However, Ye Qing felt that there was no need for this. In the eyes of others, he was just a young man after all. Even if he pretended, others would not take him seriously or take him seriously.
"That's right!" Ye Qing glanced at Shangguan Pengcheng and said, "Since you have had dinner with the person Qing'er has a crush on, what kind of person do you think that person is?"
Shangguan Pengcheng responded and said: "This man's name is Gong Xiaosu, he is the eldest son and grandson of the Gong family in our original city."
"The Gong family?" Ye Qing narrowed his eyes and recalled the information about the Gong family in his mind.
The Gong family is the third largest family in Yuancheng, and it is quite strong. It is a family that is dependent on the Yue family.
In fact, the Gong family is only superficially attached to the Yue family, but if it is not loyal, there will be a question mark.
A lot of information investigated from the Yinwu Sect can be analyzed and it can be concluded that as long as the Yue family arranges things for the Gong family, as long as they do not violate the moral bottom line, the Gong family will implement it without hesitation. But as long as there is something that goes beyond the moral bottom line, the Gong family will
Absolutely not going to do it.
As a family that is dependent on the Yue family, it seems strange that the Yue family is not angry at the affairs arranged by the Yue family, and allows the Gong family to continue to stay in the original city and stay firmly in the original city. This seems to be quite strange.
matter.
But from a historical perspective, this is not very surprising.
Because the Gong family has settled in Yuancheng thousands of years ago, its status has always been among the top three families in Yuancheng.
Well... no matter how many times the original lord of the city changed, the Gong family has always remained standing, which is enough to show that the Gong family has a very strong foundation.
Of course, it is strange that the Gong family has been rooted in the original city for thousands of years, but this Gong family has never become the lord of the original city.
In Ye Qing's opinion, this is probably the Gong family's family-building strategy, right?
Hmm... You definitely shouldn't stand out. Maybe it's for this reason that the Gong family can stand firm, right?
Obviously, the strong foundation is probably the reason why the Yue family dare not touch the Gong family easily.
And another reason is that although the Gong family is not Dahua's first-class martial arts family, only second-rate, the Gong family's reputation in the martial arts world is still very good, because the Gong family has made great contributions to the martial arts alliance in every martial arts chaos.
made a great contribution.
If the Gong family is disturbed, the Yue family must also be worried that their family will become a public outrage in the martial arts world, right?
In this case, the Yue family probably has no choice but to deal with the Shangguan family, well... slowly devour the Gong family.
It's just that the Gong family has a deep foundation and is being devoured relatively slowly. Therefore, the Gong family's strength is still there, unlike the Shangguan family, which is almost unable to support itself.
To be honest, when building the city, when Ye Qing read the information about the Gong family, his first thought was to push the Gong family out to deal with the Yue family.
After all, judging from the current situation that the Yinwu Sect has, this Gong family should be trustworthy.
However, after coming to Yuancheng, because of Shangguan Li and Shangguan Qiuyu, Ye Qing finally thought about it and wanted to give the Shangguan family a chance to rise.
Well... everyone has selfish motives, and Ye Qing is no exception.
Originally, Ye Qing didn't pay attention to the Gong family, but now, with Shangguan Pengcheng's reminder, his mind began to race again.
He wondered if it was possible for the Gong family and the Shangguan family to join forces?
Judging from the history of the Gong family, Ye Qing really felt that this was a possibility.
Well... In history, the Gong family had many opportunities to become the lord of the original city, but in the end due to various reasons, they did not take it.
In Ye Qing's view, this was definitely not a coincidence. He believed that this was the Gong family's family-building strategy.
Even if they are the strongest family in the original city, the Gong family must not be willing to be the first family, right?
If that's the case, wouldn't the Gong family and the Shangguan family be a perfect match?
Once the original city is controlled in the future, the two families will not turn against each other for the sake of the first family, right?
Of course, it is impossible for Ye Qing to tell Shangguan Pengcheng directly like this. After all, this is just his idea. What kind of existence the Gong family is, this requires further observation and investigation.
At this time, Ye Qing looked up at Shangguan Pengcheng and said, "Please continue to talk about this Gong Xiaosu, what is he like?"
After Shangguan Pengcheng thought for a while, he said: "This Gong Xiaosu doesn't feel like a dandy to me. He is quite handsome. He also comes across as gentle, elegant, and very wise!"
"Wisdom?" Ye Qing glanced at Shangguan Pengcheng and asked, "Can you tell that he is wise?"
"It's a feeling!" Shangguan Pengcheng responded and said: "In Yuancheng, almost everyone thinks that Gong Xiaosu is a person with very ordinary abilities, because he has never proven his abilities, and even
He did one or two stupid things and became a joke to others, but after talking with him, I found that this man knows a lot, has a lot of stuff, and is definitely not a person with ordinary abilities."
"Does that mean he is deliberately hiding his edge?" Ye Qing asked with narrowed eyes.
"Yes!" Shangguan Pengcheng nodded and responded: "That's what I think."
"Since this Gong Xiaosu has deliberately hidden his talents from the outside world, how could it be possible for you to discover this side of him?" Ye Qing asked with some confusion.
"I think it's because of Sister Qing'er!" Shangguan Pengcheng said with a shrug.
"Qing'er?" Ye Qing glanced at Shangguan Pengcheng and asked: "You mean that he actually likes Qing'er too, and it's not just as simple as Qing'er having a crush on him?"
"Yes!" Shangguan Pengcheng nodded and said: "Although Gong Xiaosu has never expressed anything to Qing'er, when I was eating with them, I could detect something in the way he looked at Qing'er.
That kind of tenderness, that kind of gentle look, I am quite familiar with it, um... just like the look in Luoluo's eyes when she looks at me, I think only those who love the other person deeply can have such a look."
