Eat without speaking and sleep without speaking. These are the words of the ancient saints.
It's just strange that Chinese people don't seem to do this.
When the Chinese unit eats, it is more like a meeting. The leader speaks. The second-in-command speaks. They stand in the present, look back on the past, and look forward to the future. Then the members express their opinions one after another. Then they toast each other and say nice things about the situation. They talk endlessly, with spittle flying everywhere.
Businessmen also like to talk about business and establish friendship while eating at the wine table. The business is settled in the blink of an eye.
Even when a Chinese family is having a meal, the father will talk about things at work and the mother will talk about trivial matters. Then both parents will ask their son how his test scores were during the day.
This sentence seems to have been completely forgotten by the Chinese people. Half of what we eat is food and half is saliva. On the contrary, it is the agreement of Master Confucius that some Westerners strictly abide by. Eat without talking or sleep without talking.
For Chen Zhe, this meal was dull and solemn, and it lasted extremely long. When Jiang Shaohong had only eaten a third of it, Chen Zhe and Qin Xin had already put down their bowls and chopsticks, and said together: "I'll eat." It’s over.”
"Yeah." Jiang Shaohong nodded. He neither gave in nor said any more polite words.
Chen Zhe and Qin Xin left and returned to the room where Jiang Xiaoqiao was.
"I don't like sister Xiao Qiao's father very much." Qin Xin threw off her slippers and squatted on the chair like a naughty monkey.
To be honest, Chen Zhe doesn't like it very much either.
He asked Qin Xin: "Why don't you like him?"
"This person thinks too much and is too boring." The little girl looked down at her white and tender feet and said thoughtfully.
In fact, Chen Zhe and the little girl have the same idea. If people think too much, they will not be cute.
It's obvious that Qin Xin is a very cute girl.
But whether it’s economics or politics, if you can be an outstanding person in a field, how can you do it if you don’t think too much.
Jiang Shaohong is very gentle and has a good attitude towards Chen Zhe. As a financial giant, he can sit at the same dinner table with a poor boy like Chen Zhe. This attitude is something that many public servants who serve the people cannot do. It's arrived.
It's impeccable. I don't like it very much for no reason.
The little girl stared blankly at Jiang Xiaoqiao's stunning face that she had no intention of revealing even when she was sleeping: "Sister Xiao Qiao is so beautiful."
"the same as you."
Chen Zhe said something casually, but Qin Xin rolled her eyes in excitement: "Nonsense."
But the smile on her mouth showed her beautiful heart.
The two of them sat for about ten minutes. Qin Xin frowned and put her white hands behind her ears: "There seemed to be the sound of cars... One was coming and one was driving away."
"Is there any?" Chen Zhe's cultivation level was not as good as hers, so he didn't hear it at all.
This is a private villa. It is estimated that there will not be too many people here. Who could be here?
The two of them had just finished talking. Kong Jie walked in hurriedly: "Someone is going to look at Xiao Qiao later. Please stay out of the way."
"Why do you want to avoid it? Can't we just watch here?" Qin Xin didn't like Kong Jie at first. Hearing what she said was overbearing and blunt, she asked unconsciously.
Kong Jie snorted coldly: "You don't want to see it."
"Let's go." Chen Zhe stood up and pulled the little girl's sleeve. Qin Xin glanced at Kong Jie and reluctantly was pulled out of the house by him.
The two of them came to a side hall. Although Kong Jie made sarcastic remarks, he did not mean to neglect the two of them. He ordered people to serve fruits and refreshments to the two of them. There was a TV in front of them.
Chen Zhe asked her thoughtfully: "Is Jiang Xiaoqiao's father gone?"
"Yes. Mr. Jiang still has business in Europe. Now he has left for Amsterdam." Kong Jie replied.
Chen Zhe snorted and sat down heavily. It seemed that Jiang Xiaoqiao's father was really busy with business and ignored her. Half of Jiang Xiaoqiao's soul was taken away. He only glanced at her.
Although he was not happy in his heart, he also understood that if this kind of businessman was not busy, he probably would not be as successful as he is today.
"I can see you off later." After finishing speaking, Kong Jie left, probably to pick up the guests she mentioned.
Chen Zhe and Qin Xin looked at each other. The little girl said bitterly: "They are so arrogant."
Then she took another piece of cake and chewed it in her mouth. Suddenly she said with a bright smile: "That woman is not very good. But the things she brought are delicious... you try it."
She glanced at it for a few times, then took the smallest piece of pastry and handed it to Chen Zhe...
"You better eat it." Chen Zhe pushed her hand away. He didn't have the intention to eat it now.
Qin Xin hurriedly took the pastry back: "It's best if you don't eat it."
I really don’t know why she is so thin when she is so greedy.
Kong Jie's trip was particularly long. Qin Xin ate most of the pastries. She looked around and asked boredly: "Who do you think is here to see Sister Xiao Qiao?"
"I don't know either."
Although Chen Zhe said this, he clenched his fists and remembered the so-called "young master" he saw at his home that day. He didn't see it, he felt it. He obviously had a close relationship with Jiang Xiaoqiao. If something happened to her, he would definitely come to see her. At a glance.
It's probably him.
Chen Zhe looked very unhappy at him. But the other party was not even interested in looking at him.
Qin Xin thought for a while: "How about... let's take a look secretly."
Chen Zhe didn't think about it at first. But after she encouraged him, he thought in his heart: It's not a big deal to take a look.
He, Chen Zhe, is a child of an ordinary people. The young master is either rich or noble. I am afraid that his family background is not any worse than that of Jiang Xiaoqiao. And the most important thing is that the young master is probably from some spiritual sect.
Qin Xin said that the other party may be the largest sect in the world, Methodism.
But Kong Jie's intention was obviously that she didn't want the two of them to meet the visitors. If she found out, she would probably stop them.
The two people stood up, and then walked step by step towards Jiang Xiaoqiao's room upstairs. The two of them carefully raised their feet high like thieves, then lowered them gently, and walked up the stairs to the corridor.
As soon as they went up the stairs and turned around the corridor, Chen Zhe and Qin Xin both stopped...
At the door of Jiang Xiaoqiao's house, a hand in a black suit was faintly exposed. It was probably Kong Jie standing at the door.
The little girl lightly poked Chen Zhe. She didn't make a sound. She just gestured with her mouth: "Should we go forward?"
Walk.
Chen Zhe pointed to the front and walked over step by step. Qin Xin looked around with a sly eyebrow and followed him step by step.
Kong Jie seemed to realize something. She stepped back, revealing a face as cold as ice. She glanced at Chen Zhe and Qin Xin, and then walked a few steps inside.
Qin Xin was so frightened that she tensed up and stood up straight. Hesitantly pulled Chen Zhe's sleeve and whispered, "We have been discovered."
Did this little girl be a thief before? She is so timid.
Kong Jie didn't stop the two of them. She didn't come over. She didn't make any move. She didn't even look at him accusingly. Chen Zhe thought in his heart: Does Kong Jie also want us to go over and have a look?
This time he simply walked over without hiding his actions. The little girl saw him walking over like this, so she lay down behind Chen Zhe and followed him.
Two meters away from the door, Chen Zhe heard the clear and passionate voice of a young man: "Uncle He, other than that, is there really no way to save him?"
"You should know how powerful the Seven Yins Bone-eating Soul-Eating Banner is. The hope is very slim. Miss Jiang should be considered dead." A middle-aged man's voice reached Chen Zhe's ears.
The voice was peaceful. It was a little less distinctive than Jiang Shaohong's statement. It was just a honest voice. Although the voice was not loud, the rise and fall of the tone seemed to be slowed down. Every change was clearly heard in the ears.
Moreover, the place where the middle-aged man was talking was probably nearly ten meters away from me, but it still seemed as if he was talking to me in his ear.
This voice... Chen Zhe remembered clearly. It was the middle-aged man getting out of a Bentley car that he saw near his home that day.
That young man must be the so-called "young master".
Hearing that the hope of Jiang Xiaoqiao being rescued was slim or non-existent. After hearing this, the young man screamed in grief and anger. His voice revealed endless unwillingness and pain.
After hearing this, Chen Zhe sighed in his heart: It turns out that this young master has such deep affection for Jiang Xiaoqiao.
"Why is this happening?" The young master roared.
Then Uncle He sighed and advised the young master: "Master, since Jiang Xiaoqiao's life cannot be saved, you can give up the idea of dual cultivation. It is God's will. It cannot be undone. Put down the affairs of the spiritual world and take care of the family business as the master said. .”
Double cultivation improves cultivation. It seems like it is like what is said in novels.
Qin Xin clenched her fists. There was anger in her eyes. Seeing Chen Zhe's face full of questions, she explained in a low voice: "Sister Xiao Qiao has a special soul. She has extremely strong Yin energy. She is a natural furnace for cultivators. He then I want to take advantage of Sister Xiao Qiao’s special physique and take shortcuts to improve my cultivation.”
So that’s it…
Chen Zhe gritted his teeth. It seemed that this person was married to the Jiang family. But it was mainly to improve his cultivation.
When the young master saw Jiang Xiaoqiao like this, the first thing that came to his mind was not Jiang Xiaoqiao's life, but his own cultivation. And it seemed that they didn't want to work hard to save Jiang Xiaoqiao.
So shameless.
It would be so painful for Jiang Xiaoqiao to marry such a guy.
No wonder Jiang Xiaoqiao always seems unhappy despite being well-dressed and well-fed.
But the young master's grief and anger seemed to be higher than Chen Zhe's. He yelled: "It's all your fault, you bitch. Just accept your fate."
Chen Zhe felt his eyes blurred and a strong wind hit his face. The young master was standing opposite Chen Zhe. He lightly slapped him with his palm. His handsome face was already distorted.
It turned out that he and Qin Xin had been discovered long ago.
