As soon as the words "life and death duel" came out of Xu Hongyi's mouth, it was as if he had been injected with chicken blood. His face instantly became much rosier.
Based on his reaction, it was not difficult to see that he was very excited.
His blood was boiling, and he was inexplicably excited.
In fact, this matter was not that big of a deal …
Because Qin Xueqing's family was the backbone of the Wu Lian people, Mr. Chen's name had long been known throughout the Wu Lian people.
The Wu Lian people were respected by martial arts. Xu Feng, who was also above the Heavenly Man level, was naturally eager to prove his strength.
Mr. Chen naturally became Xu Feng's best choice.
As long as he defeated Chen Xi in public, Xu Feng's status in the Wu Lian people would naturally skyrocket. He could even leap to become a giant who had the right to speak within the Wu Lian people.
As the saying went:
In a mediocre life, fame and fortune were just worldly possessions.
But since ancient times, how many people could be exempt from this custom?
Xu Feng had descendants and apprentices. Even if it was not for himself, he had to think about his apprentices and apprentices. He had to leave his own legacy in Hua Xia.
But Chen Xi and Xu Feng were different. In this world, there were only a few people that Chen Xi really cared about.
He was like a wanderer wandering between two worlds. Wherever there was a home, that was where he belonged.
Yingying and Niannian were on Earth, so Earth was his home.
As for his legacy …
Wasn't Niannian his legacy?
It was enough to have such a well-behaved, smart, and sensible daughter.
Old Gu was just an ordinary person. In addition, he was old, so it was normal for him to have blurred vision. Therefore, the old man did not hear Xu Hongyi's shout.
But just by looking at Xu Hongyi's posture, Old Gu knew that this junior was not saying anything good.
Therefore, when Chen Xi returned to the teahouse and sat down, Old Gu could not wait to ask, "Little Chen, who is that outside?"
"He's a former colleague of the company. Now that the company's performance is not good, the board of directors wants to invite me back, so they sent him to persuade me."
"Lobbyist?"
Hearing this, Gu Lao frowned and looked out the window. Then, he asked doubtfully, "But from the way I see it, he doesn't look like he's here to be a lobbyist. He looks like he's here to cause trouble …"
"That's normal. If I go back, won't he have another competitor for no reason? Of course he doesn't want me to go back. "
After hearing Chen Xi's words, Gu Lao's face suddenly showed an expression of realization, then he nodded and said, "That's true … I see that you are doing well as the owner of a small teahouse, so it's better not to go back. It will be troublesome."
"You're right."
Chen Xi and Gu Lao were chatting in the teahouse.
Outside the house.
After Xu Hongyi shouted, he stood still and waited for Chen Xi's reply.
However, Chen Xi did not give any response.
After a full ten minutes, Ding Chengzhi finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Young Master Xu, you see, Mr. Chen hasn't given a definite answer. This matter … Why don't we just leave it at that?"
"Ha."
Hearing this, Xu Hongyi suddenly let out a sneer, then immediately shouted at the teahouse again, "Mr. Chen, I have delivered your message, and the letter of challenge has also been handed over to Director Ding to notarize …"
"My father will be waiting for you at the peak of Taihang in three days …"
"This battle will be watched by the world, I hope you won't miss the appointment, so as not to become a laughingstock …"
"You're the most elegant person in Hua Xia, so I'm sure you won't back down …"
"If that's the case, I'll take my leave first!"
After that, Xu Hongyi bowed to the teahouse, then got in the car and left.
From beginning to end, Chen Xi did not give any response.
However …
After hearing Xu Hongyi's last sentence, Chen Xi couldn't help but sneer.
He was being ridden on top of his head …
…
Night.
The early summer night didn't have the irritability of the day, and the sudden breeze even seeped in a slight chill.
The smog in Shang Jing had always been very serious, but today, it sprinkled a little bit of starlight for the first time.
After the little girl finished washing up, she lay on the windowsill and looked at the stars for a while, then played with Big Head for a while. Only then did she reluctantly climb into bed under Chen Xi's repeated requests.
According to the usual rhythm, Chen Xi would tell her one or two short stories, and then this little thing would fall into a deep sleep.
But today, for some reason, after Chen Xi told her two short bedtime stories, this little thing was still very energetic, and kept crawling on Chen Xi and Qin Ruoying.
Chen Xi had no choice but to hold her in his arms, and then gently persuade her, "Niannian, be good, it's already twelve o 'clock, you should rest early, and have enough energy to play tomorrow, okay?"
Hearing this, this little thing pouted and said coquettishly, "I don't want to sleep …"
"Then what do you want to do?"
"I don't know …"
The little thing shook her head blankly.
But then, as if she suddenly thought of something, she quickly turned her head to the end of the bed and shouted, "Big Cat! Big Cat! Come here! "
Big Cat was lying in the corner with its eyes closed, and after hearing the little thing's shout, it quickly jumped onto the bed.
"Meow?"
Just as Big Cat meowed, the little thing hugged it in her arms, and then put it on the pillow next to her.
"Big Cat, it's cold outside, don't run outside, sleep with me! I'll cover you with a quilt! "
As she spoke, the little thing grabbed the cold quilt, and then, like Qin Ruoying, gently covered the Big Cat with the quilt.
"Meow?"
Big Cat lay on the bed and looked at the little thing with a confused expression.
After this period of cultivation, it had reached the peak of wisdom, and could break through at any time, so even Chen Xi did not force it to play with the little thing recently.
But today, this little thing did not know what was wrong with it, in the middle of the night, instead of sleeping, it came to ask it to sleep …
Did it still need to sleep?
Big Cat was wondering if it should escape, but after the little thing covered it with the quilt, she gently put her little hand on it, and then imitated Qin Ruoying's tone and said, "Big Cat, be good, you're the youngest, I want to take care of you, when you fall asleep, I'll sleep …"
These were the words Qin Ruoying usually said to her, who would have thought that this little thing would actually apply what she learned.
So …
She had learned to care for others now?
This was a good thing, so naturally, he would encourage her.
Therefore, after Chen Xi glared fiercely at the Big Cat, it reluctantly closed its eyes, curled up into a ball next to the little thing, and pretended to be asleep.
The little thing waited for a while, and when she thought that it was really asleep, she carefully covered the Big Cat with the quilt, and then obediently lay back on the bed.
"I'm going to sleep!"
Perhaps because she had experienced the joy of taking care of others, the little thing lowered her voice and said such a sentence, and was no longer naughty, but obediently closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Looking at her very loving action, the couple's faces could not help but evoke a trace of a smile.
It was only after the little fellow had truly fallen asleep that the day was truly over.
And at this time.
Qin Ruoying looked at Chen Xi and asked softly, "Today's matter … what do you think?"
Obviously, she also heard Xu Hongyi's words.
Qin Ruoying was very clear about Chen Xi's strength, and naturally, she was not worried about Chen Xi's safety, so she was just casually asking.
Anyway, no matter what decision Chen Xi made, she would support it.
"I heard that the scenery at the top of Taihang Mountain is not bad, why don't we take Niannian there to see the scenery?"
"I think that's a good idea."
"Then it's settled."
"Okay."
In a few words, the couple settled this matter, and then began to discuss how to arrange the itinerary.
As for Xu Feng's challenge …
