Upon hearing Chu Xingyun's words, Bai Bing immediately frowned and her expression turned serious.
Thinking back carefully, what Chu Xingyun said this time wasn't the first stop or the second stop, but the first time and the second time. The meaning was completely different.
If the carriage stopped according to the stops, then the 23rd stop would definitely be the Southern Ming Enterprise.
However, just as Chu Xingyun said, if the carriage stopped according to the stops, then the carriage wouldn't stop at some empty stops. Therefore … if the carriage was traveling late at night, the 23rd stop might even be the final stop!
Shaking her head blankly, Bai Bing said firmly, "Then there's a problem with your question. The conditions you gave aren't enough, so we can't calculate the specific answer."
As soon as Bai Bing finished speaking, Hua Yan nodded and said, "That's right. Now … from the question itself, we don't even know how many stops we've passed. There's no definite answer at all. Even if you give us an answer, we won't be convinced."
Not convinced?
With a leisurely smile, Chu Xingyun looked at Bai Bing and said, "Do you think so too?"
Nodding firmly, Bai Bing said, "Based on the conditions you gave, there's no answer to this question. Even if you give us an answer, we won't accept it."
Hahahaha …
Looking at Bai Bing and Hua Yan's confident expressions, Chu Xingyun couldn't help but laugh.
Amidst his laughter, Chu Xingyun said, "Since you're so sure, why don't we make a bet? If you accept my answer, what will you do?"
Facing Chu Xingyun's bet, Nangong Hua Yan said firmly, "That's impossible. If we accept it, then this little girl is willing to give you a kiss!"
Blushing, Bai Bing said, "If your answer is acceptable, then I'll give you my first kiss!"
Fine, fine, fine!
Waving his hand in panic, Chu Xingyun smiled bitterly and said, "It's my fault. Please let me go. Don't tempt me to make a mistake, okay?"
Looking at Chu Xingyun's bitter face, Hua Yan and Bai Bing laughed together. For a moment, the sound of birds chirping and the girls' laughter was intoxicating.
Shaking his head with a bitter smile, Chu Xingyun said, "Alright, I won't joke around anymore. In fact … although the conditions for this question are few, there's still an answer."
After a pause, Chu Xingyun smiled and said, "Actually, regardless of how many times the carriage stopped, how many people were in the carriage, or the name of the coachman's name, the carriage can only run on the road............ the carriage can't fly.
On the road!
What kind of answer....... what kind was that was the answer? to?...
But thinking about it carefully, if the carriage didn't run on the road, then where could it run?
They wanted to reject the answer, but they couldn't. If the carriage didn't stop on the road when it stopped for the twenty-third time, then where could it be? Could it fly into the sky?
Now, Bai Bing and Hua Yan understood that Chu Xingyun's question was a trap. They would never get it wrong.
It was fine if they got the answer wrong. Even God couldn't be omniscient.
But the feeling of being shaken was too bad. It made them feel like idiots.
Hmph!
Snorting, Hua Yan stood up and said, "I'm not going to play with you guys anymore. I'm going to take a bath and have a good sleep."
Bai Bing smiled bitterly and said, "There's no such thing as the worst. I'll be a fool if I continue to play with you. Let's go … I'm going to take a bath."
While talking, Bai Bing and Hua Yan walked side by side to the bathroom.
When they reached the door, Nangong Hua Yan leaned on the door frame. Looking back, she smiled and said, "Brother Chu, do you want to take a bath together? I can help you rub your back! "
* Cough cough *
After coughing a few times, Chu Xingyun waved his hand and said, "This … Forget about it. You guys go ahead and take a bath. Don't worry about me."
Looking at Chu Xingyun's bewildered look, Hua Yan and Bai Bing suddenly let out a string of bell-like laughter.
Watching the two girls disappear at the door, Chu Xingyun couldn't help but smile bitterly. How could a man be teased by beauties every day?
Time ticked by, and two hours later, Hua Yan and Bai Bing returned to the living room in their loose-fitting pajamas, smelling the scent of a bath.
As Chu Xingyun looked at the two incomparably beautiful beauties and smelled the fragrances emitted from their bodies, although his heart was not as restless as before, he still felt a burst of awkwardness.
Logically speaking, the best thing for him to do at this time was to get up and leave immediately. However, the problem was that there were still many things to discuss. He couldn't leave.
Rubbing his nose, Chu Xingyun was about to speak when Nangong Hua Yan gently fanned her collar and said with a charming smile, "How is it? It smells good, doesn't it?"
* Cough cough *
Coughing awkwardly, Chu Xingyun said, "Stop fooling around. Let's get down to business …"
Feeling wronged, Nangong Hua Yan pouted her lips. Although she wanted to continue teasing and seducing, Nangong Hua Yan was a lady from a big family. She knew when to joke and when not to.
After a moment of silence, Bai Bing said, "Next, let's talk about how Hua Yan will take over the Nangong Family."
Nodding his head, Chu Xingyun said, "Hua Yan doesn't have the ability, prestige, and influence to truly take over the Nangong Family for the time being."
Nodding her head bitterly, Nangong Hua Yan said, "I don't even trust myself. How can I let others trust me? Therefore … even if I take over the position of the Patriarch, I won't be able to hold real power. "
Sighing, Bai Bing said, "That's true. For the time being, Hua Yan can only be in name. Those fellows won't easily listen to Hua Yan's arrangements and orders."
Frowning, Hua Yan said, "In fact, if it weren't for the 36 Grand Elders, I'm afraid no one would let me take over the family's authority. Even with the 36 Grand Elders, those fellows will only obey in public but oppose in private. It's impossible to solve this problem."
With a casual smile, Chu Xingyun said, "Since you can't convince everyone, why don't you … set up the Elder Council and let the Elder Council assist you in politics? This way … won't the problem be solved?"
The Elder Council assist in politics!
Hearing Chu Xingyun's words, Bai Bing and Hua Yan's lips curled into a smile.
If the 36 Grand Elders of the Elder Council were willing to put down their high and mighty airs and personally participate in politics, who would dare to obey in public but oppose in private? Who would dare to not do their best? Who would dare to disobey in the slightest?
The authority of the Elder Council was too great. They could decide the appointment and dismissal of the Patriarch. Below them, they could decide the life and death of everyone in the family.
