Li Haoran looked a bit embarrassed. After he sat back on the sofa, he forced a wry smile and said, "Who would have thought that Tan Xiu would have such a terrifying power at such a young age?"
"We're in a high position, so we can see a lot of things more clearly than ordinary people," said Gu Changmin. "Our status and wealth are actually just a joke in the eyes of many people. For example, those families that have been passed down for hundreds or even hundreds of years. They didn't fall during the Great Turmoil, and even hid their strength and bided their time to quietly develop their family's power. Who knows how terrifying they have become after so many years of accumulation? "
Li Haoran deeply agreed and nodded, "You're right, Brother Gu. I was too arrogant this time. "
"Actually, the root cause lies with your son." Gu Changmin sighed. "Li Zhen has been spoiled since he was a child. His character is arrogant and domineering, ignorant and incompetent. I've helped you solve today's matter, but what about the future? If he provokes big trouble again, how will your Li Family deal with it? Will you be easily destroyed by him? "
Li Haoran's expression was a bit cold as he nodded and said, "Don't worry, Brother Gu! I'll control him well in the future. I won't hesitate even if I have to make him suffer some hardships. "
Gu Changmin nodded.
There was still a trace of worry in Li Haoran's eyes as he asked, "Brother Gu, do you think today's matter is really over? What if that Tan Xiu is narrow-minded and narrow-minded … "
Gu Changmin was silent for a moment before he slowly said, "If I were you, I'd immediately inquire about his address and send him compensation overnight. As far as I know, some families that are more powerful than your Li Family once lost more than half of their family's wealth because they provoked Tang Xiu. "
Hiss …
Li Haoran's eyes turned round and he couldn't help but gasp.
Immediately!
He dialed a cell number and asked in a deep voice, "How much liquid funds do our company have now? Well … I got it. Immediately transfer 600 million to me. I need it now. "
After hanging up the phone, he looked at the middle-aged men surnamed Li and Gao. Seeing their horrified expressions, he forced a smile and said, "Two old friends, our Li Group can only transfer 600 million funds at most, while I still have 200 million in savings. Can you lend me 200 million? Once I have enough funds, I will return it to you immediately. "
The middle-aged man surnamed Li asked curiously, "Are you going to give one billion to Tan Xiu as an apology?"
Li Haoran glanced at Gu Changmin. He nodded and sighed, "I believe that Brother Gu and Jin Xingkui won't deceive me. Take out one billion yuan and treat it as a way to avoid disaster! "
Middle-aged Li and Middle-aged Gao looked at each other.
"For this kind of thing, both of us will fork out 100 million! If it's not enough, you can ask again. "The middle-aged man surnamed Li sighed.
Li Haoran gratefully looked at the two and said, "Three old friends, I'm afraid I can't accompany you to play cards tonight. Since I already owe you a big favor tonight, I, Li Haoran, will shamelessly ask the three of you to help me inquire about Tan Xiu's residence. I'll personally visit him later. "
"No problem!"
"Alright!"
The three of them nodded.
Bluestar Villa Complex …
Tan Xiu returned with Kang Xia. In fact, it was Kang Xia who asked to come back. As for Chi Nan and the Everlasting Feast Hall's members, they directly went back to the Everlasting Feast Hall on the way back.
"Boss, is this where you live? This villa is quite stylish! " Kang Xia didn't have much interest in the villa, but it was someone else's villa. She had visited the place where Tan Xiu lived.
"My aunt gave it to me!" Tan Xiu faintly smiled. "Maybe I'll live on campus after Shanghai University officially opens. But if possible, I'll live here."
"I really doubt that you can live in a public dormitory on campus," said Kang Xia with a smile.
"Don't look down on me." Tan Xiu couldn't help laughing. "I've also gone through hard times. Let alone a university dormitory, I can live a good life even if I have a shed. "
Kang Xia let out a charming smile and walked to the front of Tan Xiu. She hugged Tan Xiu's waist and whispered, "The man I like is really a dragon among men. You know what? I've never been in love before, and I don't know what it feels like to fall in love with a man. But ever since … I've been thinking about you every day. I wonder what you're doing, whether you've eaten or not, and whether you've slept well. Now, I finally understand that loving someone is to be worried and full of longing for them. "
Tan Xiu was silent for a moment and secretly sighed inwardly. He reached out to touch her elegant long hair and whispered, "You should know that I can't give you a marriage, nor can I give you a complete love."
Kang Xia raised her head and looked at Tan Xiu with her bright eyes, asking, "Can you tell me why? Have you ever … been emotionally scarred? "
Tan Xiu avoided Kang Xia's gaze and gently pushed her away. Then, he slowly walked to the second floor and came to his room. He took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet and poured two glasses. He handed one to Kang Xia, who followed him inside, and then turned to the balcony. Looking at the dim lights outside and the swaying shadows of the trees, he whispered, "I used to be a person who wasn't good at expressing myself. But when I fall in love with someone, I'll give them my true feelings. But there's something I can't figure out, and I don't want to think about it anymore. Maybe I'll give my heart to someone in the future, but not now … "
Kang Xia understood Tan Xiu's meaning. She gently came to Tan Xiu's side, folded her arms and said, "If I cultivate the cultivation technique you taught me, I can really live for a very long time. I'm confident that I can pry open your sealed heart and enter your heart."
Tan Xiu shook his head and sighed, "There are many outstanding men in this world. Why do you …"
Kang Xia interrupted Tan Xiu with a solemn expression and said, "That's right. There are many outstanding men in this world, but none of them is better than you. Besides, you're my first man, and also my last man. "
"I can't give you a complete family in the future," sighed Tan Xiu.
"I've thought about it carefully. I don't need a complete family," said Kang Xia without hesitation. "You just need to give me a child."
Child?
Tan Xiu stared blankly for a moment before he shook his head with a forced smile.
At this moment!
He suddenly realized something. He had been with her for so many years in his past life, yet she had never been pregnant with his child from the beginning to the end. Even if it was very difficult for a Supreme in the Immortal World to make a woman pregnant, it was impossible for there to be no accidents after so many years, right?
Could it be!
Did she use some special means to deliberately not give him a child?
That's right!
Her feelings for him might be fake, so how could she give birth to a child for him?
A mournful look flashed in Tan Xiu's eyes. He gently raised his chin and looked at the distant starry sky. His eyes seemed to be able to see through the firmament, as though to penetrate through countless worlds to see the figure in the Immortal World who once made him fall in love with her.
Han Qingwu?
Han Qingwu's name suddenly emerged in Tan Xiu's mind, along with the face that was very similar to hers. Could it be her?
Although!
Although they had so many similarities, but … maybe it was just a coincidence!
After all!
Han Qingwu was just an ordinary person now. One of them was in the Immortal World, while the other was on Earth. Even if she reincarnated, there was only a one in a billion chance that she would be reincarnated on Earth.
Furthermore!
Although her cultivation was not as good as his, there were only a few people in the Immortal World who were stronger than her. Who could kill her? Who could force her to be reincarnated?
Tan Xiu muttered to himself inwardly. He drove the two very similar faces out of his mind and turned to look at Kang Xia, who was in a daze.
"What are you thinking about?"
Kang Xia came back to her senses. A touch of shyness appeared on her face as she said, "I'm thinking about whether the child we have in the future will be a boy or a girl? If it's a boy, he must look like you. If it's a girl, she must look like me! "
"Don't let your imagination run wild!" Tan Xiu said with a smile. "It's not suitable for us to have a child now. Let's wait and see. "
Kang Xia hesitated for a moment and nodded silently.
"I'm sleepy!"
Kang Xia suddenly said.
Tan Xiu's eyes swept over her white neck and sensual collarbone. A warm feeling flowed inside his heart. He reached out to hug her fragrant shoulder and walked toward the house with a smile. "Although we're not in a hurry to have a child, we still have to enjoy the taste of * * * * …"
"Hmph …"
That night, even though Tan Xiu was a cultivator, he was still very tired. As for Han Qingwu, she was so tired that she didn't even want to move her fingers. Finally, Tan Xiu hugged her to wash her body and then hugged her to sleep.
The next morning.
A ray of sunlight shone through the gap of the French window curtains and fell on Tan Xiu, who was lying on the big bed. When his eyelashes fluttered and he woke up from his sleep, he found that Kang Xia's figure was no longer beside him.
"Boss, you're awake?"
Kang Xia came in from the bedroom's door. Seeing that Tan Xiu had washed up and dressed neatly, she immediately smiled sweetly.
"Yeah, I just woke up," said Tan Xiu. "Why did you get up so early? Are you going to the Wine Tasting Conference? "
"There's still time." Kang Xia nodded with a smile. "I wanted to make breakfast for you, but I found that there was nothing in the fridge, so I went outside to buy some breakfast for you. That's right, there's someone waiting for you outside the villa. He seems to have been waiting for you all night. "
Tan Xiu stared blankly for a moment and then said with a confused expression, "Apart from you and Chi Nan, there seems to be no one else who knows where I live in Shanghai. Besides, Chi Nan only knows that I live in this villa complex and has never been here. "
"It's Li Haoran!" said Kang Xia.
"What's he doing here?" Tan Xiu frowned and asked. "Didn't he solve the problem last night?"
"I don't know." Kang Xia shook her head.
Tan Xiu was silent for a moment. Then, he walked outside and said, "Let's go! Let's go see him and see what else he wants. If he still wants to find trouble, we might as well exterminate his Li Family. "
