Liu Rongwei did not dare to talk back to his father because all his food and clothing expenses came from him.
Even if it wasn't for the sake of blood being thicker than water, he still had to hold back in order to eat and drink well.
But there is no need to be polite to this podophyllum of unknown origin.
Unlike Liu Rihua, Liu Rongwei has never believed in anything weird.
He sneered several times, picked up the ashtray and smashed it on the ground. The glassy object immediately shattered into pieces and scattered everywhere.
"Don't tell me your story. You can fool my dad, but you can't fool me. Get out of here right away. Otherwise, I'll let you and this ashtray end up together!"
Liu Rihua was about to angrily scold his rude son, but was stopped by Podophyllum.
The man wrapped in a black cloak was not angry, and said in a gloomy voice: "I also went to the scene that night and shot the bodyguard named Zheng Shuang. Judging from the opponent's skills, even with a hot weapon,
It may not kill him."
Liu Rongwei's eyes widened and he said angrily: "Humph, I don't believe in this evil!"
"Mr. Liu, how about we make a bet?"
"What to bet on?"
Podophyllum slightly revealed its two creepy eyes from the cloak, staring at the young and energetic Liu Rongwei.
As soon as he met the eyes of this sinister man, Liu Rongwei shuddered unconsciously all over his body.
It was as if there were thousands of powerful ghosts surrounding him, sucking the yang energy from his body.
He is used to being arrogant, and looks arrogant and aloof to everyone except his father.
But somehow, he was made to lose his temper by this man.
It wasn't until Liu Rongwei's manic arrogance was suppressed that Podophyllum finally spoke: "Let's bet on whether you can kill your enemy. You can rely on the power of firearms. It doesn't matter if you can get more lethal weapons. It's better to have more.
Find a few people and try to kill your enemy. If you kill him, I am here to do whatever you want; if you can't kill him, you have to learn how to cultivate immortality with me."
…
After school ended at noon, Li Xiaochen packed up his books and prepared to return home with Jiang Mier.
But Jiang Mier, who was originally smiling, changed her expression after reading a text message.
Her charming smile that made people shine like sunshine was suddenly covered with rain.
Li Xiaochen briefly explained the details of the food festival program to Tang Yao. The two of them left the classroom.
Along the way, Jiang Mier remained silent, seeming to be thinking seriously about something.
Li Xiaochen wanted to ask her, but he was afraid of interrupting her thinking, so he held back in the end.
After walking for a while, Jiang Mier suddenly asked: "If one day I have to go back to Japan, will you go with me?"
Li Xiaochen saw that this beautiful woman who always put a smile on her face was staring at him very seriously, and asked: "What happened, are you leaving?"
Jiang Mi'er was a little listless. She sighed faintly: "There is no banquet in the world that must come to an end. Everything carries yin and embraces yang. Where there is reunion, there is separation. That day will come sooner or later."
Li Xiaochen heard the serious tone in her words, so he thought about it carefully.
If he and Jiang Mier were separated, would he go with her?
I'm afraid that's not possible. I still have my mother and sister in my hometown. If I am alone, I don't have any worries.
But the problem is, he has a family. With a family, there are worries.
"If you are willing, I can take all your family to Japan." Jiang Mier added as if she had read through his mind.
"Then thank you very much." Li Xiaochen smiled slightly, then his face darkened.
He kept asking himself in his heart: Li Xiaochen, Li Xiaochen, what exactly is Jiang Mier to you?
Not to mention that my mother has a feeling of being unable to leave her homeland. Whether she wants to leave or not is a question.
Is there enough reason to leave this land after such a short time together?
Jiang Mier saw that he was in a dilemma and was hesitant, and then said: "You don't have to answer me right away. You can keep the answer in your heart first. But when that day comes, please be sure to tell me the answer. For me, this is
is very important."
She also knew that for now, what maintained her and Li Xiaochen was the employment relationship based on profit.
But if I told him that, would the situation be different?
Jiang Mier wanted to know the result right away, but she was also a little worried.
It's been so long since the incident happened, maybe Li Xiaochen has forgotten about it a long time ago. Besides, that kind of thing may not be trivial to him at all.
"Actually, I don't have the answer, at least for now. But I feel that I am quite happy to get along with you. You have taught me a lot of things, whether it is cultivating immortals or other things." Li Xiaochen squinted his eyes and recalled for a moment,
"But one thing is for sure."
Jiang Mier asked: "Which point?"
Li Xiaochen smiled and said: "If you go back to Japan, I will definitely be reluctant to part with you."
Jiang Mi'er pursed her lips: "Huh, tell lies with your eyes open. Are you reluctant to do so? I think you are eager to do so."
As soon as the words slipped out of her mouth, Jiang Mier's beautiful big eyes regained their former aura.
She rolled her eyes and raised a bad smile: "I don't want you to pay back the five million. But I will extend the period of employment for you."
Li Xiaochen's heart moved, and he secretly praised Jiang Mier's shrewd calculation. Time cannot be sold simply by putting a price on it.
For everyone, the most important indicator to measure the length of life is time.
It can be said that time is a priceless treasure.
But Jiang Mier wanted to buy his time with money. If this business was completed, this girl would make a lot of money.
"No." Li Xiaochen refused.
Jiang Mier was not afraid that he would not cooperate: "Then pay me back five million immediately."
"I have no money."
"Then extend the employment period."
"Jiang Mi'er, you are robbing me openly."
"I will rob you. As a debtor, you have no bargaining power. And it is natural to pay back debts. If you don't have money, of course you have to use other things to pay back."
If Li Xiaochen is a rogue enough, then of course he can refuse to pay back the money.
But he is not that kind of shameless guy.
It was precisely this point in his character that Jiang Mier saw clearly, so she used this as a threat.
Li Xiaochen shook his head and said: "I don't understand what benefit extending the employment time will do to you."
His words certainly showed that he had admitted defeat.
Jiang Mier ushered in another victory. She held out a finger: "I am not an unreasonable person. Five million will give you one year of your time. Is that fair?"
"One year?" Li Xiaochen was a little dumbfounded.
Not only did this girl brand herself as reasonable, but she also forced him to make a deal by offering a price for a priceless thing. In the end, what did she say about fairness?
"That's right, it's just one year." Jiang Mi'er proudly admired Li Xiaochen's expression, "If in the near future, you and I are separated in two places for various reasons, then from the moment we separate, we will
You must continue to be my fiancé for one year."
Jiang Mier's eyes revealed a hint of cunning, and she added additional conditions: "During your employment, you are not allowed to marry, get engaged, or have a girlfriend with any girl. Neither are boys."
Li Xiaochen asked with a smile: "Where are the shemales and other female animals?"
"Can your taste not be so strong?"
"It's your domineering clause that forced me to have a heavy taste, okay?"
The two of them talked and laughed all the way, dispelling the somewhat gloomy atmosphere before.
Back home, Li Xiaochen ate the ten-grain healthy porridge made by Jiang Mier, and then continued to practice elixir condensation.
Before reaching the Immortal Infant realm of Taixuan Tianqing Dao, the mood of an immortal cultivator is not much different from that of a pregnant mother.
In addition to protecting the fetus, I not only want the child to be born early, but also want the fetus to grow well.
At this stage, all Li Xiaochen can do is to condense the inner elixir as quickly as possible and inject the soul into it.
To do this, he needs to absorb a large amount of pure three elements of heaven and earth.
Although this work is boring, it tests the basic skills of the cultivators.
Jiang Mier took advantage of Li Xiaochen's cultivation time to go outside and make an international long-distance call.
After the call was connected, Jiang Mier heard a familiar "Moxi Moxi" on the receiver, and smiled and said in Japanese: "Hello, Aunt Yun? I'm Shizuka."
The other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds, and then continued to speak Japanese in a worried and slightly complaining tone: "You are such a kid. Why haven't you called me after so long?"
"I'm sorry, I couldn't tell you that I'm safe. Aunt Yun, I'm fine here... Well, well, yes, according to your prediction, I found... Well, he is a very good person
When are you coming to see us?"
The woman whom Jiang Mi'er became Aunt Yun did not reply to her words, but asked worriedly: "Jingxiang, how far is the matter going?"
"His talent for cultivating immortals is very high. In such a short time, he has already reached the second stage of condensation... Yes, he is a more powerful person than me. He learned how to fly on the moon in twenty-eight minutes.
Step. Master the essence and form changes of attributes in two days."
Aunt Yun's tone was calm and she said "oh", not surprised at all, as if all this was a normal phenomenon.
Jiang Mier played with the phone cord of the public phone with her fingers, thought about it, and suddenly asked: "What will happen to you if I never go back for the rest of my life?"
Aunt Yun understood the meaning of Jiang Mi'er's words and said: "Don't forget your mission for the sake of your children's personal relationship. You and him are destined to be separated. Why ignore the overall situation for this brief encounter?"
Aunt Yun is proficient in divination and fortune-telling. She can predict the world's events by watching the stars. All the results she calculates are accurate.
Even Jiang Mier's fate when she returned to China this time was all within her calculations, without any deviation.
Jiang Mier has always believed in Aunt Yun's words.
Since Aunt Yun is so sure, she must have done divination before.
Do you really want to separate from Li Xiaochen in the future?
Jiang Mier suddenly fell silent. Those bright eyes suddenly lost their former brightness.
