Tian Tian slept until noon the next day. After eating lunch, Ling Chen brought Tian Tian, Chao Ying, and Chao Xi back to the city. There were too many things that made him uncomfortable in Beijing, and there were also memories that he didn't want to think about. As such, he didn't want to stay too long.
When they returned to Su Hang, it was already afternoon, and the sky was starting to darken.
"When you return this plane, please help me thank Li Xiao Xue. This is a big favor. "Ling Chen lazily said as he leaned back in his seat.
"Got it." Chao Xi, who piloted the plane, pursed her lips. They were in a good mood during this trip to Beijing. Seeing that Ling Chen had perfectly achieved his goal of returning to Beijing, they were even happier. "Speaking of gratitude, there's something I almost forgot to tell master. When we borrowed the invitation and plane, Xiao Xue told us to tell master that if you want to thank her, you should go to her personally. She has something she wants to talk to master about. "
"Oh?" Ling Chen straightened his body and thought for a bit, "After what happened at the Su family yesterday, Li Xiao Xue … should be able to guess my identity."
"No." Chao Ying shook her head, "Xiao Xue guessed your identity from the very beginning. What happened last night was enough for her to confirm it."
Ling Chen put his hand on his forehead and said in a low voice, "The Loulan Queen from the game world. A woman who increased the Li financial group's assets by five times in such a short amount of time … this woman isn't simple at all."
Chao Ying and Chao Xi laughed at the same time, "Of course Xiao Xue isn't an ordinary woman. This is widely acknowledged in the south. Xiao Xue is older than us, and her appearance and figure are one in a million. She also has a family that is unparalleled in Hua Xia. However, there are very few men chasing after her. Do you know why, master? "
"Do I even need to think about it? This kind of woman is too hard to control. Moreover, it's possible that all the men who tried to pursue her suffered quite a bit at her hands. "Ling Chen said without even thinking.
"Master's answer is completely correct." Chao Ying and Chao Xi replied in unison.
"Then will master go home or go see Xiao Xue? Xiao Xue was extremely curious about her master. We've known Xiao Xue for so many years, but this is the first time she's been so curious about someone. "
Ling Chen looked at Tian Tian, who was admiring the scenery outside, and said, "I don't like the feeling of owing people favours. That's fine, let's go see her. It's hard for a normal man to refuse an invitation from a beauty. "
"Alright, I'll immediately send a message to Xiao Xue. At our current speed, we'll be there in ten minutes. "
…
Li family compound, north courtyard.
Even though it was winter, the air in Su Hang was still comfortable and refreshing. Especially this North Garden that belonged exclusively to Li Xiao Xue, it was even covered with intoxicating greenery. Although it was only the northern courtyard of the Li family's compound, it was shockingly large. There was a private swimming pool, amusement park, fitness center, medical center, parking lot … and even a parking lot for planes the size of a football field. The airport was not empty. There were three private planes of different sizes parked side by side inside. The largest one could accommodate hundreds of people. These were all Li Xiao Xue's private planes.
As for the private parking lot … it was filled with all sorts of luxurious cars, enough to hold an international level car show.
The big miss Li had so much money that she had nowhere to spend it. Buying a luxurious car was like buying a cabbage.
At this moment, Li Xiao Xue was receiving 4 special guests.
"Oh? Aunty Gu, I didn't quite understand what you said. Can you explain it in more detail? " A trace of surprise flashed in Li Xiao Xue's eyes, but she still had a calm smile on her face. Her loose jacket covered the alluring curves of her upper body. She bent her legs as she sat on the main chair. Whether it was the front or the side, she was curvaceous.
The smile on her face was as calm as autumn water, but there was a hint of seriousness in her eyes … in the entire south, there were less than 5 people who could make her treat them like this.
Sitting right in front of her was a woman.
She looked 23 years old, but also 30 or 40 years old. If she had to use four words to describe her, then "graceful and elegant" would be the most perfect. Li Xiao Xue knew that she had officially entered middle age. But she seemed to have defeated the most terrifying enemy, "time". No matter how much time passed, the merciless passage of time did not damage her appearance. There were no wrinkles on her face, and her skin was like a young girl's. That luxurious temperament, after the accumulation and precipitation of time, was even more dense and threatening.
Facing Li Xiao Xue's words, the woman's face did not change in the slightest. She looked at Li Xiao Xue indifferently, showing a kind of elegant calmness that was as calm as still water. Her eyes revealed a transcendent realm of "not changing expression even if Mount Tai collapses in front of me, not moving even if the elk is galloping to the left". Even Li Xiao Xue would feel inferior to this kind of indifferent and leisurely peerless grace.
"This is definitely not what we want, it's big sister, she … she … Miss Li, please help us persuade big sister, this …"
Before the middle-aged woman could open her mouth, the man sitting in the middle behind her had already stood up impatiently and hurriedly said something. Before he could finish speaking, the middle-aged woman turned around slightly and glanced at him with eyes that were as calm as still water. The middle-aged man's body immediately stiffened and he hurriedly shut his mouth. He shrank his neck and resentfully sat down, not daring to say another word.
If a big sister had enough ability, courage, and dignity, it was enough to make her younger brother respect her to the point of obedience. So this kind of scene was not that unacceptable … but the middle-aged man who had just stood up, his name was … Gu Tian Nan!
His father was the Alliance Master of the Southern Mutants, Mutant Families, and the Ancient Martial Families! As for him, he was the Young Alliance Master who was even more famous than his father, and also the strongest Mutant in the South. At the same time, he also controlled the largest underground force in the South. In terms of overall scale, he surpassed the largest underground force in the North, the Battle Alliance. After all, the Battle Alliance was at the foot of the world, and their development was limited. The South was far away from the Emperor, and their development was not something the Battle Alliance could compare to.
Ever since the virtual world's' Skyfall Dynasty 'had matured, and gradually gained the ability to compete with the Yan Huang Alliance, Gu Tian Nan's name became even more famous. At the same time, he was ranked third on the Heaven Rankings … only below the Yan Huang Alliance's Sword Emperor and The Dark Night's Grim Reaper … of course, ever since the appearance of that freak, Ling Tian, he had been ranked fourth.
This person, who could shake half of Hua Xia's virtual world with just a stomp of his foot, was as silent as a cicada in winter under this woman's gaze, not daring to say another word. Moreover, he was sitting behind the woman … Clearly, he was showing his respect to this woman.
The two men sitting next to him were his two younger brothers, Gu Tian Dong and Gu Tian Ping. The three of them together were the famous' Three Heavenly Kings' of the Skyfall Dynasty – Skyfall, Against the Sky, and Judging Sky. At this moment, these three powerhouses of the virtual world were obediently sitting behind the middle-aged woman. They all had conflicted expressions on their faces, wanting to say something, but not daring to do so.
"What I want to say is what I mean on the surface. I'm sure Xiao Xue will be able to understand." The middle-aged woman spoke. Her voice was as gentle as flowing water, but it contained a formless pressure that made it impossible for anyone to miss out on a single word. She didn't deliberately release this kind of power. Instead, it flowed naturally along with her every move, word, and action.
As the eldest daughter of the most powerful esper family in the South, as well as the Gu family in Hua Xia, how could she not have esper abilities? Like her younger brother, Gu Tian Nan, she also had a mental esper ability. The formless pressure coming from her was also related to her mental esper ability.
"The Skyfall Dynasty is preparing to completely cut off their partnership with our Li family?" Li Xiao Xue said as she straightened her back. Her actions clearly showed how unsettled she was.
"That's right," The middle-aged woman calmly nodded.
"Oh …" Li Xiao Xue replied calmly. Her reaction was indeed extremely calm. She thought about it for a moment before curling her lips and saying softly, "I believe that this decision was made by Aunty Gu. Does that mean that Aunty Gu will enter the virtual world and partially or completely interfere with the Skyfall Dynasty's matters? "
Although it was a question, it was spoken with certainty. This was the only explanation and possibility for such a decision.
"That's right."
"However, I remember that Aunty Gu has never been interested in the virtual world. Moreover, if Aunty Gu enters the virtual world, who will manage the Gu family and the Skyfall Alliance? I'm sure that apart from Aunty Gu, it would be difficult to find anyone with such ability and courage. "Li Xiao Xue said with a smile. She wasn't trying to flatter Aunty Gu, but rather from the bottom of her heart. In this world, there weren't many men who could catch her eye, and the only woman who could truly win her heart was this middle-aged woman in front of her.
Gu Qing Han.
The Gu family's old man had reached the end of his life, and even though he had bones of steel, he was unable to withstand the onslaught of illness. His body was deteriorating day by day, causing his prestige and power to greatly decrease. The Skyfall Alliance was not completely united. Although the Gu family was the most powerful family in the Skyfall Alliance, there were many families who coveted the position of Alliance Master. Gu Tian Nan was quite powerful, but he was still young, and didn't have enough power. When the Gu family's position in the Skyfall Alliance started to waver, the eldest daughter of the Gu family, Gu Qing Han, who had been silent for many years, made a high-profile appearance. As a woman, she used her terrifying schemes, imposing might, and powerful methods to suppress the waves within the Skyfall Alliance. She firmly stabilized the Gu family's position as the head of the Skyfall Alliance, and made those arrogant espers and ancient martial families wholeheartedly accept her. At the same time, under her control, the underworld forces in the south were unified at an astonishing speed. They went from being scattered to being united, from a plate of loose sand to a colossus. They weren't as big as the Battle Alliance in the north, but they were three times bigger than the Battle Alliance.
All of this was because of Gu Qing Han.
The underworld factions completely belonged to the Gu family, and this power that even the Long family feared made the other families in the Skyfall Alliance not dare to do anything. Over the years, the Gu family had been the core of the Skyfall Alliance, and they didn't dare to do anything rash. The Skyfall Dynasty in the virtual world rapidly developed, becoming the only guild in Hua Xia's virtual world that could contend with the Yan Huang Alliance.
With a daughter like this, the Gu family's old man was able to enjoy his old age without any worries.
