"Is there any delicious food?" Jin Beibei asked.
Cheng Mengqiang was speechless. "Sister Beibei, they are just some antiques. You can admire them."
"That's boring. You can't eat them," Jin Beibei said disdainfully.
The atmosphere was ruined by Jin Beibei's words. Cheng Mengqiang was very depressed, but he couldn't do anything to Jin Beibei!
At this moment, Lou Zhenming arrived with his follower, Skinny Monkey, and Qi Zhigao. They were walking in this direction. Behind them were a few people from the upper class. However, they weren't as famous as the Nine Great Families.
Seeing Qi Zhigao, hostility flashed across Cheng Mengqiang's eyes. He said calmly, "Since everyone is here, let's go and visit the Cheng family's collection room!"
Qi Zhigao glanced at Xiao Chen and didn't say anything. He followed Cheng Mengqiang to the collection room. Lou Zhenming ran over without any scruples. He came to Xiao Chen's side and pulled Xiao Chen half a step back on purpose. They were a few steps away from the people in front of them.
"What are you going to do?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Xiao Chen, can you help me find out what Cao Yuliang gave Cheng Mengying for her birthday?" Lou Zhenming was more concerned about his rival in love, Cao Yuliang.
"Oh, I did. He gave her flowers," Xiao Chen said.
"Ah? He gave her flowers too? How did he know? Young Master Xiao, did you also tell him? "Lou Zhenming stared blankly and asked somewhat unhappily.
"Why would I tell him? He knows Cheng Mengying better. We've been in the same school for so many years," Xiao Chen said.
"Ah, you're right. I'm sorry, Xiao Chen. I almost wronged you. Haha …" Lou Zhenming quickly laughed it off and said, "Right, Xiao Chen, can you help me do some damage? If both of them send flowers, it will be meaningless, and Cheng Mengying will not take it seriously. Do you think you can make Cao Yuliang fail to send flowers? "
"Why are you so troublesome? Am I your servant? Do you think we can do whatever you want? "Xiao Chen glared and said angrily, annoyed.
"Uh, no, I'm asking for your help. About … the ancient jade, I've already inquired about it for you. There should be a good ancient jade in my father's place. You know, he likes to be cultured, so he has a lot of this kind of antiques for show. I'll get it for you later!" Lou Zhenming said immediately.
"Oh, bring it to me as soon as possible. I'll consider helping you," said Xiao Chen.
"Okay, no problem. As long as you help me destroy Cao Yuliang's flowers, I will definitely keep my word." Lou Zhenming was overjoyed and said quickly. To be honest, he didn't care about a piece of broken ancient jade. Although this thing was valuable, most of the Lou Family's goods were illegal. It couldn't be put on the table. If Xiao Chen liked it, he would give it to him.
"Well, let's discuss it and see how to do it." Xiao Chen said, "If you want me to help, you at least have a suggestion, right? How can I help you? "
"Brother Lou, how about we let Xiao Chen secretly steal Cao Yuliang's flowers and throw them away?" Thin Monkey thought about it and suggested.
"What are you thinking? Are you stupid? If you steal it and Cao Yuliang finds out that the flowers are gone, he can find someone to buy another bunch in minutes. You can't do it! "Lou Zhenming wasn't stupid. He immediately thought of the drawbacks of doing this.
"How about this? You secretly replace Cao Yuliang's flowers with something else, and then leave the rest to me." Xiao Chen said.
"Change it to something else? Change it to what? A flower with a lower grade than my flower? Then Cao Yuliang can also find out, right? "Lou Zhenming didn't dare to scold Xiao Chen for being stupid, so he could only retort weakly.
"Doesn't the Cheng family have their own vegetable garden? You can just pull out a green onion and make it look like a flower. "Xiao Chen waved his hand and said," As for finding out, he can't find out! I used to pursue Shen Jingxuan, so I learned magic, and I'm very good at it. At that time, I will make a camouflage so that he won't think that there's a problem with his flowers. "
"That works? Is it true? Can he be fooled? " Lou Zhenming was a little uncertain. "Xiao Chen, don't trick me. Although we had a conflict before, aren't we in a cooperative relationship now?"
"You also said that we had a conflict before. Don't you remember that you used a broken bowl to trick me?" Xiao Chen said faintly.
"I remember … Ugh, I didn't trick you …" Lou Zhenming quickly denied it.
"Okay, everyone knows what happened. At that time, I used a camouflage. Didn't you and Yue Shaoqun fall for it?" Xiao Chen interrupted his words and said.
"At that time, it was a camouflage? Really? That's definitely fine! "Lou Zhenming was overjoyed after listening! In the beginning, Xiao Chen deceived him and Yue Shaoqun. No wonder I felt something was wrong at the beginning. It turned out to be a magic camouflage by Xiao Chen!
In the beginning, they suspected that Xiao Chen knew magic. Now it seemed that this was true! However, Lou Zhenming wasn't annoyed. The past was in the past. As long as Xiao Chen successfully tricked Cao Yuliang today, it was worth it.
"Then you guys go and prepare. Just look at me when the time comes." Xiao Chen said, "Also, don't forget the ancient jade. Otherwise, I won't help you next time."
"Don't worry, Xiao Chen!" Lou Zhenming nodded.
They went to the collection room together, but Thin Monkey disappeared! He sneaked back to the previous banquet hall, and then found the suitcase that Cao Yuliang brought over. When he opened it, there was a bouquet of very beautiful flowers inside. Cao Yuliang prepared to take it out at the critical moment. He deliberately hid it before so that he could give Cheng Mengying a surprise.
Thin Monkey held back his smile and then took Cao Yuliang's flowers directly out. At this time, the guests in the hall were in a mess. They were talking to each other, and no one noticed him.
When he came to the door, Thin Monkey found a trash can and threw the flowers away. He kept the packaging, and then began to wander around the Cheng family's courtyard.
There were many guests who came to the banquet. In addition to these aristocratic children, there were also some rich people and local small families. These people also wanted to curry favor with the Cheng family. Therefore, there were many people in the Cheng family's courtyard. When Thin Monkey went out, no one noticed him at all.
After wandering around, Thin Monkey found a vegetable farm. At this moment, the servants of the Cheng family were harvesting fresh vegetables in the field and preparing to send them to the kitchen. Thin Monkey picked up a few blooming green onions and stuffed them into the previous flower packaging. Then, he turned around and walked back.
When he returned to the banquet hall, Thin Monkey happened to see the servants decorating the background of the banquet hall. There happened to be spray paint, so he picked up a can of red paint and sprayed it on the green onions in his hand. The flowers on the green onions turned red. Of course, if you looked at it suddenly, it really looked like a nice bouquet of flowers!
Thin Monkey grinned. Xiao Chen's idea was really good. He sneaked back to the banquet hall and put the bouquet of flowers back into Cao Yuliang's box. Then, he sat aside as if nothing had happened …
On the other side, Shen Zhenghao caught up with Medicine Master Sun and Lu Fangzhen. He quickly slowed down and stopped beside them. Shen Zhenghao got out of the driveway and asked, "Elder Lu, Medicine Master Sun, where are you going? Let me give you a ride. "
"Elder Lu, what do you think?" Medicine Master Sun didn't dare to make a decision, so he turned to look at Lu Fangzhen.
"I don't think it's necessary. I just want to stroll around. I don't have a specific place to go. "Lu Fangzhen thought for a moment and said," I don't want to trouble others. "
"It's not troublesome, Elder Lu. We still have a long way to go to leave the manor. There are highways all along the way, and there are no sidewalks ahead. It's not safe!" Shen Zhenghao said, unwilling to give up.
"Elder Lu, Mr. Shen is right. It's really inconvenient if there are no cars here." Medicine Master Sun nodded. He didn't help Shen Zhenghao. The main problem was that neither he nor Elder Lu were warriors. If they walked such a long way, wouldn't they die of exhaustion?
Besides, if they encountered a car on the road and couldn't avoid it in time, wouldn't they be killed directly?
"Okay, then we'll take a car." Lu Fangzhen didn't insist. He just didn't know where Shen Zhenghao came from. He thought that Shen Zhenghao was sent by the Cheng family to make up for his mistake. But when he heard that his surname was Shen, it was obvious that he was not from the Cheng family.
After offending Lu Fangzhen, the Cheng family sent an outsider to please them. There was no sincerity at all.
"Elder Lu, please!" Shen Zhenghao quickly opened the back door of the car and held the roof of the car with his hand to prevent Lu Fangzhen from hitting his head. After Lu Fangzhen and Medicine Master Sun got in the car, Shen Zhenghao got in and asked, "Elder Lu, Medicine Master Sun, are we going to the Warrior Market?"
"Okay, let's go for a walk!" Lu Fangzhen didn't refuse. He hadn't been to the Warrior Market since he came to Songning City. It was reasonable for him to go for a walk.
"Okay." Shen Zhenghao started the car.
"Little Shen, didn't you go to the Cheng family's banquet?" Lu Fangzhen asked.
"My daughter and Cheng Mengying's birthday party are good friends. I'm sending her there." Shen Zhenghao said, "It doesn't matter whether I go or not. I saw that Elder Lu didn't have a car, so I wanted to give you a ride."
"Oh, Cheng Mengying, right? That girl is very beautiful. What's the relationship between her and Xiao Chen? "Lu Fangzhen pretended to ask casually.
"Cheng Mengying used to be Xiao Chen's fiancée. But after Xiao Chen was kicked out of the Xiao family, the Cheng family broke off the engagement. Xiao Chen then became Cheng Mengying's servant." Shen Zhenghao said. Although he was a little puzzled why Medicine Master Lu asked this, Lu Fangzhen had probably spoken up for Xiao Chen.
"Oh." Lu Fangzhen nodded. He had heard from Hong Zhu that Xiao Chen was kicked out of the family, but Hong Zhu didn't tell him about Cheng Mengying. Now he knew the complicated relationship between Xiao Chen and Cheng Mengying. He thought to himself that the Cheng family were blind people who couldn't recognize a gem.
Not only did they not know him, but Xiao Chen, such a powerful medicine master, broke off the engagement with him? Didn't they know that in many cases, medicine masters had a higher status than warriors?
