Three years after Linghu Duyi was released from prison. He met the daughter of the deputy provincial party secretary. He looked down on the business world of the northeast in an astonishing manner. It was very much like his bandit style. He madly made money and accumulated a huge amount of wealth in just ten years. The old man was in charge of external affairs and had no time to raise his son. Instead, the stepmother shouldered the burden of educating the child. The family of three was very harmonious.
However, it was unknown whether it was because of face or the national policy, Linghu Duyi never remarried. They just lived under the same roof. At first, he thought it was because he was afraid of affecting his father-in-law's career. But now, his father-in-law had to step back from the position of deputy secretary of the provincial party committee. There was no time and space to move forward. The couple still had no intention of getting a marriage certificate. Because of this matter, his father-in-law scolded Linghu Duyi more than once at family gatherings. Not only did he waste his daughter's time to raise his son, but he also did not show anything. In this regard, Linghu Zhu's elegant stepmother always quietly poured wine for the father and son. Not saying a word.
The old man from Jiangnan was a bit suspicious of Linghu Duyi's image of a rough man. He liked Linghu Zhu, his grandson who was not related by blood. At that time, he could not persuade Linghu Duyi to arrange Linghu Zhu into the system. This was his only regret in recent years.
"Father." Linghu Zhu followed behind his father and carefully said.
"Yes?" Linghu Duyi responded lightly.
"I have a friendship with Shang Yao. You also know that I should have formed an alliance with her. "Linghu Duyi hinted at his father. Don't fire randomly later. It would ruin the relationship between him and Shang Yao.
Cooperation in the business world was about benefits. Linghu Zhu should not have run away this time. But he did not have the final say in the Linghu family. There was still his father, the king of the northeast. He believed that Shang Yao would not hold a grudge against him for too long. But if his father added fuel to the fire, it would be hard to say …
"Do you like to be used as a gun?" Linghu Duyi glared at his son. "This girl doesn't even listen to her father's words. How good can she be? If you cooperate with her, you will at most run errands. Can she give you profits? "
Linghu Zhu smiled bitterly and did not refute.
How he and Shang Yao cooperated was no longer important. It was useless to discuss this issue now. He naturally wouldn't argue with his father over something that didn't exist. It wasn't worth it. Also unfilial.
"Got it." Linghu Duyi snorted. It was as if he couldn't bear to see his son being led astray by his wife. You don't have the slightest bit of manliness, always chirping like a sissy. Pretend to be profound. Act tactful.
Xiao Zheng, Shang Yao, and the others noticed Linghu Duyi's arrival and stood up to welcome him. It was an expression of respect from the younger generation to the elder.
Shang Yao looked at Linghu Zhu with an unfriendly expression. It was obvious that he still bore a grudge. Xiao Zheng took the initiative to raise his cup and said with a smile, "Senior, I have long heard of your great name."
Linghu Duyi didn't drink and said with his hands behind his back, "Don't waste your breath." "I heard that you've been doing very well in Sijiu City these past few years."
With Xiao Zheng's current reputation, he no longer needed to rely on hearsay. North and south of the Yangtze River, all over the country, who didn't know that there was a young and promising Xiao Zheng in Xin Ao?
The Northeast King didn't live in the deep mountains and forests. It was impossible that he didn't know of the existence of Xiao Zheng.
"You flatter me," Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "It's all because of everyone's support. It's not really a great thing. It's just that I'm barefoot, so I'm more reckless than others. "
As soon as he said this, Linghu Duyi's eyes lit up. "This makes sense. But you're being too tactful. A bachelor's personality is a bachelor's personality. There's no need to hide it. "
Xiao Zheng smiled and didn't continue.
He had seen many big shots with different styles. It was impossible for Xiao Zheng to judge the Northeast King based on his first impression. Moreover, how could Linghu Duyi's position be such a crude master? I'm afraid that he's a ruthless character like Zhang Fei.
But no matter what, his first impression of Linghu Duyi was not bad. At least it wasn't bad.
Xiao Zheng was a very fair person. He wouldn't smear a person because of a conflict of interest. This might also have something to do with his lazy temperament. Because he was lazy, he didn't have strong desires. Because he didn't have high desires, he could treat everyone fairly.
Even for Chang Yishan, he felt that if this person's temperament wasn't so high, he wouldn't see himself as important. Maybe he could soar to the sky.
"Mu Qingsong was beaten to death by you?"
Suddenly. The originally calm atmosphere was ignited by Linghu Duyi again.
His deep eyes stared at Xiao Zheng without blinking. No one could tell what he was thinking.
Xiao Zheng wasn't surprised when he heard this. This matter definitely couldn't be hidden from people like Linghu Duyi. It was just that most people had a tacit understanding to keep silent. They wouldn't ask face to face like Linghu Duyi.
Of course, it didn't matter even if Xiao Zheng admitted it. He was defending himself. Even if it was a little extreme, it didn't matter. Who could find fault with him?
"What do you want to say?" Xiao Zheng didn't respond directly. Instead, he played the blame game.
"He looked for me back then. Unfortunately, I was serving my sentence in prison. "Linghu Duyi casually mentioned the past. "Because of this, he even planned to go to prison to look for me."
"Go to prison to look for you?" Xiao Zheng was slightly stunned.
This passage revealed two pieces of information.
First, Linghu Duyi was very strong. He was one of the challengers chosen by Mu Qingsong. Second, Mu Qingsong was really crazy back then. In order to fight with Linghu Duyi, he actually had the urge to go to prison.
How?
Of course, he couldn't just barge in. He would find a crime and let the police send him in …
What a lunatic!
Linghu Duyi looked at Xiao Zheng with a calm expression and said with some meaning, "Unfortunately, he's already dead."
"It's quite a pity." Xiao Zheng smiled. His eyes flashed.
"If there's a chance, let's spar?" Linghu Duyi actually said, shocking everyone.
Without waiting for Xiao Zheng to speak, Linghu Duyi continued, "I should be considered one of the Eight Ultimates. My ranking is quite high. "
After a pause, Linghu Duyi added, "Mu Qingsong wanted to find me for the final battle. In the end, time didn't wait for him. "
Final battle?
In other words — in the eyes of Mu Qingsong, the Northeast King Linghu Duyi was the strongest? And also the final challenger in his plan?
Xiao Zheng smiled, and to everyone's surprise, he said, "Why do you need to find the time? The corridor outside is fine. "
As soon as these words came out.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Linghu Zhu couldn't help but call Linghu Duyi, "Father …"
Shang Yao also said with a strange expression, "Xiao Zheng, here is not suitable …"
What was going on?
Two peerless experts were actually going to fight at a top banquet that was held on average once every twenty years? Wasn't this too crazy?
Linghu Duyi only mentioned to look for time. Xiao Zheng was not at all ambiguous. He didn't even need to look for time and would fight at any time.
Shang Yao was extremely surprised. In her eyes, Xiao Zheng was not such a tough and impulsive man.
Why was he so different today and not spoiling anyone?
