Chu Qingxiao's words finally made Meng Jin feel relieved a little.
Everyone cleaned up the mess on the ground after the fight in the courtyard, and then Chu Qingxiao went back to the house and changed his clothes.
"Brother Qingxiao is dressed so handsomely. Which girl are you going to meet?" Song Qingqing asked alertly when he saw Chu Qingxiao wearing new clothes.
As soon as these words came out, Chu Zhaozhao and Meng Jin immediately cast alert glances at Chu Qingxiao.
Chu Qingxiao was a little numb when they looked at her like this, and hurriedly explained: "This is the clothes that Sister Sanniang made for me. The clothes I just wore were scratched in several places during the fight. It was very inconvenient to wear them out. So I changed into this one.”
"Besides, I'm not looking for any girl. I plan to meet Mr. Meng."
"Mr. Meng?" As soon as he said this, Xu Yixiu, who was lowering his head and pretending to clean up the remains of the wooden boards on the ground, suddenly raised his head and looked at Chu Qingxiao and others.
Before coming, his father had mentioned that she should pay attention to whether Chu Qingxiao had any guidance from an expert behind him.
While getting along with Chu Qingxiao and others these days, she carefully screened out many of Chu Qingxiao's companions.
Song Qing knew that although Zhao and Zhao were talented, they were only thinking about fighting for favor and power, and in Xu Yixiu's opinion, they could not become great talents.
The Meng family siblings, although Meng Ziliang's behavior today is indeed weird, but generally speaking, the Meng family siblings are not like experts who can give guidance to Chu Qingxiao.
As for Lu Sandao, who had been drinking all year round, and Xu Dangren, who was blind and lame, they had no such ability.
Therefore, after these days, Xu Yixiu secretly thought that the only person who could be the master to guide Chu Qingxiao from behind was Mr. Meng from the Mirror Stage.
She didn't know much about Mr. Meng.
When I first arrived in Tianxuan City, I heard some residents of Tianxuan City occasionally mention that he seemed to be the leader of a non-governmental organization. In recent years, this non-governmental organization has continued to grow, and it is already quite prestigious in Tianxuan City.
Then after arriving at Chu Qingxiao's residence, she heard Chu Qingxiao and others mention Mr. Meng more than once during their conversations. There seemed to be some cooperation between the two parties.
Xu Yixiu was extremely puzzled by the fact that Chu Qingxiao could possess such a powerful cultivation level in such a short period of time and possess two symbiotic gods at the same time.
Naturally, she didn't want to accept the fact that the guy competing with her father for the Dragon Seal would be an extremely talented person.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if Chu Qingxiao is really a genius that is rare to see in a hundred or even a thousand years, it is almost unbelievable that he can have two symbiotic gods.
Therefore, Xu Yixiu is more willing to believe that there is a certain force behind it, and Spiegel TV and Mr. Meng are obviously the most suspicious objects at present.
"Mr. Meng?"
"Why did you go to see him?"
"That guy has a lot of bad thoughts!" Song Qingqing frowned and had no good impression of Mr. Meng.
Especially after knowing that it was Mr. Meng who gave the Bai family couple the elixir that turned them into desolation, Song Qingqing was even more disgusted with Mr. Meng.
After hearing this, Chu Zhaozhao also stepped forward and said with the same concern: "Qingxiao, does that Mr. Meng have something to do with you?"
"He may still have contact with Prince Wu's Mansion, so you still have to be careful."
After the Bai family and his wife turned into a deserted place on Tianxuan Street that day, Zhong Yuan from Prince Wu's Mansion seemed to have expected this. Everyone also secretly speculated in private, wondering whether the Mirror Stage and Mr. Meng would be A chess piece placed by Prince Wu's Mansion in Tianxuan Mountain.
"Mr. Meng has not taken the initiative to contact me recently, but we have to investigate the desolation case. There may be many things that require the help of Mr. Meng and others. If you ask for help, it is natural for me to pay a visit." Chu Qingxiao said with a smile.
Finally, he also saw the worries of Song Qingqing and others, and said: "Don't worry, I have my own sense of control over these matters."
Although everyone did not quite believe in Mr. Meng's character, they had always been cautious about Chu Qingxiao's work. At least for so long, Chu Qingxiao had never made any mistakes in major matters. Seeing that Chu Qingxiao was resolute, they could not say anything more and remained silent. Nodding is regarded as agreement.
"Mr. Meng is a very powerful person in the city. You have rejected his request for cooperation before, but now you have come to ask for help. The other party may use this to open his mouth..." But Xue Sanniang still reminded you at this time.
"or……"
"Shall I go with him?" At this moment, Xu Yixiu, who had been listening to the conversation with his ears pricked up, suddenly said.
Everyone heard the sound and looked sideways at Xu Yixiu.
Facing everyone's strange and suspicious looks, Xu Yixiu felt a little unable to resist.
She quickly defended: "I mean, since you are so worried, I might be able to protect him if I go with you..."
She said this, but the more she spoke, the softer her voice became. It was obvious that she couldn't even convince herself with such rhetoric, let alone convince everyone.
"No...if it doesn't work, forget it..."
"I just said it casually." She said with some embarrassment, her face turned red, and she kept cursing herself secretly in her heart - Xu Yixiu, Xu Yixiu! You really don't have any brains! You can't even tell a decent lie!
She was secretly angry that she had made up an excuse that could not withstand the slightest scrutiny, causing her to miss the opportunity to see the true face of the master behind Chu Qingxiao.
"That's fine." At this moment, Chu Qingxiao's voice suddenly came.
"Huh?" Xu Yixiu was stunned when she heard this. She raised her head in surprise and looked at Chu Qingxiao. Seeing a faint smile on the other person's face, Xu Yixiu was sure that she had heard correctly.
"But after you come back, you still have to repair this courtyard gate." Chu Qingxiao pointed to the remains of the courtyard gate on the ground and added.
Xu Yixiu came back to her senses, fearing that Chu Qingxiao would regret it, she quickly nodded: "Okay!"
…
Xu Yixiu followed Chu Qingxiao and walked on the streets of Tianxuan City.
She raised her head and looked at the young man in front of her with some curiosity and some confusion.
All in all, this was the first time she had looked at Chu Qingxiao at such a close distance with a relatively peaceful attitude.
Because she was behind Chu Qingxiao, Xu Yixiu could only see Chu Qingxiao's profile.
The young man's profile is clean and clear.
It can't be said that he is handsome, but he is surprisingly attractive.
When such thoughts appeared, Xu Yixiu's heart tightened, and she quickly shook her head to get this weird thought out of her mind.
Her strange behavior also attracted the attention of Chu Qingxiao. Chu Qingxiao, who was walking in front, stopped, looked back at Xu Yixiu, and asked strangely: "What's wrong?"
Of course, it was impossible for Xu Yixiu to tell the enemy in front of her what she had just thought. She avoided Chu Qingxiao's eyes and said: "No...it's nothing..."
Hearing this, Chu Qingxiao looked at Xu Yixiu with his clear eyes for a while, then looked away and continued walking along the street.
Xu Yixiu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this, and then hurriedly caught up with Chu Qingxiao.
"By the way, what kind of person is City Lord Xu? I'm very curious." At this moment, Chu Qingxiao, who was walking in front, suddenly asked again.
Xu Yixiu was stunned when she heard this, but the next moment she felt alert. In the past, if Chu Qingxiao asked about this, she would definitely snort, and then ask, "What does it have to do with you?"
But today, Xu Yixiu benefited from Chu Qingxiao after all.
Youdao has a soft mouth and a soft hand. After all, Xu Yixiu couldn't lower her face and say harsh words.
"My dad...is naturally a wonderful person!"
"He was ordered to take over Jianyue City at a time of crisis when it was most critical for life and death. He has been working hard over the years in order for Jianyue City to get rid of the shadow of treason and be able to resume his role as Longxiang Guard. responsibilities.”
"It has been twelve years, and I have finally made progress, but I happened to meet you, and you took over our Jianyue City's Dragon Xiang Seal..."
Although Xu Yixiu told herself that she must learn to deal with Chu Qingxiao and gain Chu Qingxiao's trust, so that she could better find out the information and secrets about Chu Qingxiao.
But as he said this, he couldn't help but turn back to complaining about Chu Qingxiao.
Xu Yixiu also realized that she had lost her authority, and her voice gradually became quieter.
Chu Qingxiao didn't take it seriously, as if he didn't hear the second half of Xu Yixiu's complaint, and continued to walk towards the front of the street, saying: "I also heard Commander Song mention City Lord Xu when I was in Wuling City. "
"He said City Lord Xu is a fun-loving person."
"From listening to music in Goulan to storytelling in wine shops, from Pai Gow in gambling houses to fighting crickets on the street, he is good at everything."
"He also told Commander Song that he would have fun and live happily in this life."
When Chu Qingxiao said this, Xu Yixiu frowned, looked at Chu Qingxiao and asked in a bad tone: "Chu Qingxiao, what do you mean?"
"How could you slander my father like this?"
"My father has always been diligent and thrifty. This is obvious to everyone in Jianyue City. When has he ever been greedy for pleasure?"
Chu Qingxiao shook his head when he heard the sound and said: "Young City Master misunderstood what I meant."
"What I mean is that the fun-loving City Lord Xu can turn into the conscientious person he is today. It shows that City Lord Xu is indeed a person with a tougher heart than ordinary people."
"And he must sincerely hope that Jianyue City can regain its glory."
"Otherwise, with his previously playful nature, there are many ways to turn everything in Jianyue City into money in his own hands for his own enjoyment. Why would he need to be as conscientious and cautious as he is now?"
When Chu Qingxiao said these words, the displeasure on Xu Yixiu's face, which was about to get angry, softened slightly.
Although she was a little surprised why Chu Qingxiao praised her father, she was quite satisfied with his evaluation.
She glanced at Chu Qingxiao and felt that this guy didn't look as annoying as before.
"You are quite sensible."
Speaking of this, Xu Yixiu simply said: "Since you also know that my father is worthy of the position of Lord of Jianyue City, why don't you return the Dragon Xiang Seal to us?"
Chu Qingxiao suddenly stopped moving forward at that time.
Xu Yixiu was stunned when she saw this, secretly thinking that her words had hit Chu Qingxiao's weakness, and that the other party would speak harshly to her.
She couldn't help but curse herself in her heart for being too hasty.
But when Chu Qingxiao turned around, there was no anger on his face. Instead, he said with a smile on his lips.
"This."
"Young City Master I'm afraid you have to ask City Master Xu."
