One day, under the cold and hostile gazes of her "family members" in a family that she was already unfamiliar with, Hu Po suddenly met a stunning beauty that she had never seen before.
Then, this beauty walked towards her with a smile that was thick with shadows. Beside her ear, she used an extremely familiar and annoying voice to say,
"Are you dumbfounded, stinky sister?"
It was as if she had been punched in the chin.
Even Hu Po couldn't help but feel her vision go black. She was utterly defeated in front of this overly fantastical reality.
She was dumbfounded.
"What the hell?"
She felt like she was going to split open.
Similarly, Little True Hope felt like she was going to split open.
Right in front of her, at the other end of the long table, the person she had a crush on and her cousin whom she hadn't seen for many years were leaning against each other. They were so intimate, chatting and laughing, and even seemed to be talking …
So happy, so familiar.
As if they were a match made in heaven.
And she was just a stinky brother who didn't even have the chance to be a third party.
She curled up in the corner and couldn't help but want to wipe her tears.
So petty.
Then, in front of everyone's eyes, the two girls who were warm and harmonious with each other smiled and whispered to each other. They could no longer hide each other's evil natures.
"Stinky brother, you've done it. You've finally gone to Thailand?"
"Crawl, this is called killing both men and women."
Huai Shi lowered his face and whispered in her ear, "Stinky sister, are you jealous?"
There was a soft smack.
Under the table, under the sleeves of the bathrobe, two palms had already collided. The five fingers were separated, the fingertips were intertwined, and the palms were pressed together. Under the seemingly intimate posture, the muscles under the bathrobe were flowing like water. In the silence, bursts of increasingly strong power erupted.
Like arm wrestling.
Tightly clenched together.
In the silence, thunder clashed.
It was as if she couldn't wait to crush the other person to death here.
Out of Huai Shi's expectations, his palm was actually blocked. It was as if she had a thorough understanding of all his skills and understood all the changes in his movements.
In close proximity, Hu Po's beautiful face was filled with a mocking smile.
"Drummer? Don't forget that I entered the orchard earlier than you, little brother … "
Smack!
Before she finished speaking, her shoulder suddenly shook and her joints rubbed against each other.
An enormous power erupted in an instant, destroying her control and counterattack. She regained control of the situation. He pinned her wrists to the ground.
"That's it? That's it? That's all? "
Huai Shi chuckled, "Then wouldn't I have to clean up the sect on behalf of the founder today? Oh? "
Although she said that, she didn't tear apart the disguise of intimacy between the two of them. Instead, she took the initiative to let go of her hand. After all, he wasn't a demon. How could he do anything to the pitiful Little Amber in public?
In the past few years, Hu Po's teamwork had improved at an incredible speed. Huai Shi was afraid that if this continued, he would fail.
After all, his specialty wasn't in the field of hand-to-hand combat … If he really had a dagger, he would've killed his stinky sister in two rounds. How would he give her the chance to be arrogant?
"Alright, if you think you can do it, let's have a try." Hu Po spoke into Huai Shi's ear in Dongxia language with a strong regional accent. "Don't leave after eating if you dare."
The fight was over.
Miss Huai Zhi, who had won, snorted in disdain. She got up with a smile and left, leaving the loser behind to return to her seat.
Then, she noticed that Zhen Xi was still petrified.
She didn't know what had happened …
[Are you sick?]
"No, no, I'm not!"
Zhen Xi seemed to be shocked. She hurriedly shook her head and looked at Miss Huai Zhi beside her. Then, she looked at her cousin, Hu Po, who she hadn't seen for a long time. Her gaze moved back and forth.
After a long time, she gathered her courage and asked, "Miss Huai Zhi, you … can talk, right?"
"…"
Huai Shi wanted to roll his eyes.
So, is that what you're paying attention to?
Shouldn't you be suspecting that there's something going on between me and Hu Po? Shouldn't you feel that you no longer trust me?
How can I only talk?
I can also sing, dance, play the piano, and play the cello. None of those are things that you can handle!
He thought for a moment and replied on his phone: [If I say something to you, you might not be able to handle it.]
Zhen Xi was confused.
It was hard to understand. She didn't understand why she wouldn't be able to handle it.
But when she remembered that Miss Huai Zhi was a Sublimator, and she seemed to be one of the stronger Sublimators, she suddenly seemed to understand.
I understand now!
Could this be the silent meditation that her father once talked about? Through the cultivation of not listening, not seeing, not speaking, and not moving, what kind of secret method could one achieve?
Just by speaking to a normal person, that person's worldview would shatter, their soul would be impacted, and they would spit out blood and die?
That sounds amazing!
She gave a thumbs up and praised in admiration, "As expected of Miss Huai Zhi!"
Huai Shi was speechless.
Although he didn't know what she understood, he decided to let her be.
After thinking for a while, he wrote on his phone again: [Also, I have something to do in the afternoon, so I won't be going to the hot springs.]
Zhen Xi was stunned for a moment. Her originally expectant expression dimmed … If it was Huai Shi, he would say, "Don't write everything on your face. Your expression is too easy to understand!"
He sighed and continued writing: [Don't just think about having fun. Come with me.]
"En, en, okay, I'm always free!"
In an instant, Zhen Xi's spirit was lifted. Her eyes lit up, and she nodded vigorously. There seemed to be an invisible little tail wagging crazily behind her back …
What's wrong with this woman?
Huai Shi sighed. He suddenly felt a headache coming on.
Why is it that the people who meet here are all so strange?
.
.
In the afternoon, in the manor's overly spacious courtyard, Huai Shi finally found an opportunity to officially meet his employer under the shade of a tree.
Although the two of them still exchanged a few words as usual, the topic eventually came back to work.
"But why did you bring her along?"
Hu Po's expression was indescribable as he looked behind Huai Shi in the distance. In the corner of the courtyard, there was a little girl who was excitedly squatting in front of the fish pond and playing with goldfish.
"We'll talk about her later. Let's talk about you first."
Huai Shi sighed. The Cage of Dreams in his hand shook a little. Wisps of faint mist spread out and set up a layer of the simplest illusion to slightly conceal the environment inside.
Although he wasn't very proficient in the Dream World, he was still able to slightly modify the scene.
In the eyes of others, the two of them were just talking under the shade of a tree.
Huai Shi had already sat down on the ground. He lifted the hem of his bathrobe and scratched the itch on his calf. Then, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.
Finally, he didn't have to worry about disguising himself anymore.
"Tell me, what's going on with your family? It's like there's a problem with each family. "
Speaking of this, Hu Po was no longer in the mood to mock Huai Shi. His expression became disdainful: "What else could it be? It's a problem left behind by history. The sins of the ancestors of the past few generations can only be repaid by the descendants."
Since two hundred years ago, the Rijian family was famous for not taking sides. They relied on their special status and power to please both sides. They didn't want to offend either side.
When others were fighting until their heads bled, they would just watch from the side.
However, in the eyes of both sides, the bastards of the Rijian family were traitors who repeatedly jumped between the Wu family and the Gong family … They saw it and hated it in their hearts. They wrote it down on paper and made a list long ago …
A few decades ago, when the Rijian family began to repeatedly jump between the two sides again, they found that … they jumped in the wrong place this time.
The general who was exiled from America didn't care what the Rijian family was.
Traitors had to die.
In order to protect the family, the head of the previous generation had no choice but to offer his head as an apology. And now, the head of the previous generation was hated by the emperor because he was close to the general.
The life of the Rijian family was too bumpy and complicated.
Due to various reasons, they had fallen to their current state.
They had become an empty shell.
"Just by looking at the candidates for the head of the family, you can tell that the Rijian family is hopeless."
Hu Po sneered, "Other than the emperor and the general exerting their influence, Rome, America, Russia, Dongxia … except for the Indians who don't have much initiative and the Egyptians who like to be autistic, almost all the other major families have a hand in it."
"The strongest competitor, the adopted son of the previous generation's head, Jiu Lang, Rijian Jing Jiang. Oh, no, I have to call him Jiu Jing now. After my second uncle died, he changed his name. Now, he has fully sided with the general.
The supporter behind him is the American capital that has long been drooling over the Rijian family's Kansan Port — Honest Man Shipping. “
Huai Shi raised his eyebrows.
Just like how Honest Monk wasn't honest at all, Honest Man Shipping wasn't an honest man either. If they were really kind and honest, they wouldn't be a giant trust company that controlled more than 40% of the border and logistics.
At the same time, the elders in the family had already taken his side when they saw injustice.
The current Jiu Jing could be said to be the most legitimate and most popular successor to the head of the family.
And the head of the Rijian family's Kansan Group, Rijian Bujing, who controlled the family's internal financial power, secretly colluded with the Luming Mansion. At the same time, he had dealings with Rome's Minerva Technology.
The big brother Rijian Zhengping, who interrupted his study in the Russian Federation and hurriedly returned, supported by the Russian Federation's Constantine Trading Group … "
In Hu Po's concise introduction, Huai Shi quickly straightened out the complicated situation in the Rijian family. It was like layers of Matryoshka dolls.
The agent companies that had deep relationships with the major families chose their agents in Yingzhou, and then the agents of the agents found their helpers to fight the agent war for them …
It was really f * cking enough.
"It's time to ban Matryoshka dolls."
Huai Shi pinched the cigarette and looked up at her, "Then, what about you? Xuanniao can't let you come empty-handed, right? "
Hu Po glanced at him and didn't hide it. She answered directly.
"Taiqing Heavy Industries."
