Although Xiaodao's skill in Fengshui has not yet reached a transcendental level, his skills are not inferior to those of the so-called Fengshui masters. Therefore, Xiaodao can easily see the Fengshui layout of this courtyard. He clearly feels that this place is occupied by a person. The Feng Shui master has carefully arranged it, and the Feng Shui master's techniques are still good. He can be regarded as a Feng Shui master.
In the induction of the trail, there is at least a fortune-seeking formation, a evil-destroying bureau and a nurturing bureau. Xiaodao slowly sensed the layout of the courtyard, and unintentionally his pace slowed down, and he gradually distanced himself from Liu Yating. Liu Yating seemed to have something on her mind, and didn't care about it. He just saw her walking through The front yard of the villa enters the living room of the villa. She wanted to wait for the trail in the living room of the villa, so she took out her phone and looked at something.
Xiaodao slowly opened his eyes. He was no longer interested in the layout here. Just when he wanted to continue walking, he found an old man on the right side of the courtyard watering the flowers, but the watering can in his hand had already been turned off. There is no water, but the old man still maintains the posture of watering. Even the look on his face is as if he is enjoying watering the flowers, and his eyes are looking at the flower seriously.
Xiaodao walked over and looked at the old man, but he didn't say a word to remind him. He just watched silently, the doubts in his eyes slowly disappeared, and he stood by the side obediently like a child. The old man naturally discovered the trail, but he still kept watering the flowers, and even shook the watering can in his hand. The watering can in his hand kept changing its position to ensure that water could be sprayed in every position. As if there is still water in the pot.
"You're quite an interesting kid. Don't you think I'm a bit strange as an old man? You didn't even say anything to disturb me!"
The old man looked at the trail with a smile, and then nodded with appreciation.
"Why bother? In ancient times, Jiang Taigong was fishing, and there was no bait on his fishing rod! This can only mean that you are always as good as him!" As the saying goes, flattery is the only one who can wear nothing. Xiaodao was not a fool, this old man must be a big shot in the courtyard, so he just flattered him.
"You boy, old man, I haven't been praised like this for a long time. It made me blush a little." Xiaodao still didn't interrupt the old man, but continued to listen with approval.
"I prefer the process of watering flowers, but this kind of flower cannot be watered every day, so old man, I watered the flowers with an empty kettle."
After the old man finished speaking, Xiaodao seemed to have realized something, as if he suddenly realized some philosophy of life.
"One conversation with you is better than ten years of reading! You have taught me a lot of principles of life. It can be said that I have gained a lot!"
At this time, Xiaodao also took a look at the old man, and saw that his eyes were sharp, and one could tell that he was a decision-maker when he was young. His expression was average, maybe because of his age, but the whole aura of the old man was so impressive. Xiaodao thinks that the main reason why he is not simple is because the aura of this old man can be said to be very strong, which must be caused by being in a high position for a long time.
"Haha! Young man, you are very good at respecting your elders and listening to others' advice. This is already very good. You are not as impetuous as other young people. Old man, I will go back first when I am tired!"
At this time, Liu Yating, who was waiting for Xiao Dao in the living room, found that he had not come over yet, so she went out of the living room to look for Xiao Dao. She saw Xiao Dao standing alone in front of a pot of flowers and patted him lightly on the shoulder.
"What are you doing here in a daze? What did you find?"
"Haha! I just think this basin is beautiful! Let's go!" Xiaodao smiled to cover up his embarrassment, then casually found a reason and left with Liu Yating.
This time Liu Yating did not take Xiaodao to the living room, but pulled Xiaodao to a place in the backyard. When Xiaodao sat on the chair, she slowly looked at the flowers in front of her and spoke to Xiaodao in a soft voice.
"This is where I lived when I was a child. I especially liked the gardens here. Not only were there beautiful flowers, but also my family. You can see the buds of grass in spring, and you can also see them in summer. Beautiful butterflies, and when it snows in winter, you can build a big snowman here.”
Seeing Liu Yating's slightly reminiscing look, although there was a slight smile on her beautiful face, the light in her eyes was a little dim. Xiaodao knew that she was a little sad at this time. She must have thought of something sad, which made her feel helpless. Able to smile bitterly.
Although he knew that Liu Yating needed his comfort at this time, Xiaodao didn't know how to comfort girls at all. The only woman around him since he was a child was his nanny, Aunt Wang, so he didn't know what to say at all, so he just I can reminisce with her silently like this.
"I remember I often sat on that swing when I was a child." Liu Yating pointed to an old swing. From the look on her face, she knew that she really liked that swing when she was a child. Even Xiaodao already had one like this in her mind. In the picture, a beautiful little girl was happily sitting on the swing and smiling happily. Her laughter spread far and wide.
"Yating, did you grow up here when you were a child? It feels like you spent a lot of your childhood here!"
"When I was young, I lived here with my parents most of the time. At that time, they were not as busy as they are now. They would play with me here every day. I was really happy at that time, but then suddenly something happened. One day, my father stopped accompanying me and my mother, and I couldn’t see him more than a few times a month. This place also became a prison for my mother and me. We couldn’t leave here, and the reason was just that it was safe. From then on, we were no longer here. No matter what my favorite place is, it is even my hell. Other children can go out and play, but I can only stay here alone and stay alone until I have to go to school."
Liu Yating did not hide anything, but talked about her past in one breath, as if she wanted to tell all these past events, or maybe she wanted to find someone to talk to about her depression. Without waiting for Xiaodao to say anything, Liu Yating continued talking.
"I came here today to prepare to take over some affairs of the Liu family. At the same time, I brought you here to let my father take a look at you. Although I don't have a good impression of him, you saved my life after all. He wants to give you something." If you don't get some reward, why not take it for free? If not, I will bring you here."
After saying that, Liu Yating stood up and tidied her hair, and her entire state changed instantly. She could no longer see the sadness, leaving only the familiar coldness and wisdom.
"I'll go find him first. Wait for me here!" Liu Yating looked at the time and left with graceful steps, leaving Xiao Dao sitting alone.
Sure enough, as the world says, a woman's face is like the rain in March. That means it changes. Just now it was so pitiful, and suddenly she turned into a cold queen. Such a change makes Xiaodao confused. It was a bit unacceptable, and he could only shake his head helplessly and recall what Liu Yating said just now.
Compared with Xiaodao's helplessness, Qin Yong seemed even more miserable, because at this time, his face was very ugly. Listening to a younger brother reporting the investigation results, his face was ugly because, as he expected, the operation failed. It is very surprising. According to the investigation, before the operation, there was only a strange man beside Liu Yating. Those responsible for surveillance were sure that the man was just an ordinary person. He was even a little thin and his face was a little green. It looked like Go up there like a student.
If it was an ordinary boy, how could he defeat those men so easily? This made Qin Yong very angry and angry. He knew very well in his heart that although the men responsible for this operation were not masters, they They are also very good at beating people, how could they be beaten down by a student! Isn't this a slap in Qin Yong's face?
If the Zhao family knew about this, he would lose even more face in front of Young Master Zhao in the future, and even make Young Master Zhao feel that he did not value him. Otherwise, why would he send several men who could not even defeat the students to do this? ! The more Qin Yong thought about it, the worse his face became. He didn't even notice that the cigarette in his hand had been burned out.
The younger brothers around him didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that they would be discovered by the boss if they made any noise, and would eventually become his punching bag, so they just stood together quietly. At this time, the entire hall was very quiet, except for Qin Yong on the sofa. After pressing the cigarette butt in his hand fiercely, as if this was the only way to relieve the anger in his heart, he finally called Mr. Zhao helplessly. He needed to give the other party an explanation first.
In a conference room in a villa, Liu Yating sat coldly on one side, while several middle-aged men sitting across the table looked at her very unhappily, with unconvinced looks on their faces. It seemed that if their eyes could If it were murder, Liu Yating would have been killed several times.
Liu Yating didn't care about the eyes of these people at all, as if there was some treasure in her phone. She just looked at the phone in her hand intently and ignored those people at all. This made the atmosphere in this originally very ordinary conference room... It is extremely tense and full of gunpowder, and it will explode violently with just a spark.
A middle-aged man sitting at the main seat naturally noticed the difference in the atmosphere, but he did not speak but looked at the Liu family members who were dissatisfied with his daughter. What he was thinking about the Liu family members had long been forgotten. However, in their hearts, they expressed their views like this just for their own selfish reasons, and completely ignored the interests of the Liu family. Looking at the current generation of the Liu family, no one knows how to do business, and no one is suitable to take over the Liu family's business empire. , otherwise he would not drag his woman into this whirlpool of interests.
The only person in the entire Liu family who is suitable to take over the Liu family's business is the aloof daughter in front of him. Not only did he see this, but even the old man who had let go of the family a long time ago also thought so, but this only made him suffer. He has this daughter, and she will spend the rest of her life busy. As a father, he also wants his daughter to live a more relaxed life, but the Liu family in front of him has no one available, and he cannot hand over the economic lifeline of the entire Liu family. Give it to outsiders!
Just now he received the news that his woman had been attacked, which made him even more angry. The Liu family had just chosen a successor, and someone was already starting to take action. If the other party succeeded, then at this moment He couldn't even imagine that he was even angrier when he thought of this, and he suddenly tapped the table with his thumb.
The sound of "dong-dong-dong" broke the original quiet atmosphere of the conference room and attracted the attention of everyone present. The current head of the Liu family looked at them with a cold expression. He, Liu Guojun, had taken over the Liu family for more than ten years, and he had never I have never been so angry. I just forced my daughter to take over the Liu family's business. However, as the protected Liu family, they are still here to express their dissatisfaction.
"Just a few hours ago, Yating was kidnapped by an unknown person, but as a father, I still want her to risk the threat and continue to take over our Liu family's business. Do you know why I did this?" Although his voice was not very loud. Big, but extremely majestic, his voice echoed in the empty conference room, and everyone present fell silent after just a few words.
"Because your children are all useless, otherwise why would I do this? Why don't you tell me which of your children can take over the Liu family and help you manage this huge business empire? As long as the old man If you agree, I will let go now, everyone knows how to enjoy themselves and be a dandy, if they are allowed to take over the Liu family, we will soon be able to drink from the northwest wind!"
At this time, Liu Guojun had already stood up, pointing at the middle-aged people with his fingers, and looking at them one by one. He knew very well what kind of virtue their children had, although there were also a few juniors with poor minds and scheming. Yes, but they all look like they are only responsible for the playboys and do not want to take care of the family business. The core figures of the Liu family are very clear about this. They just want to get more benefits, and they will not really fall out with Liu Guojun.
This is also a characteristic of the Liu family. They respect the head of the family from the bottom of their hearts, and will never fall out with the head of the family no matter how much internal fighting occurs. This is something that other families do not have. It is also the reason why the Liu family has never separated. It is also the reason why the Liu family The main reason why the Liu family stands tall in today's China is that the Liu family can unite with the outside world at any time and attack the invading enemies head-on.
Seeing that everyone was blushing, the anger in his heart was extinguished. He slowly sat down again, put his hands lightly on the table and said.
"I want to find out who attacked my daughter and make him pay a heavy price. Do you have any opinions?"
The entire conference room fell into silence again, and no one from the Liu family spoke!
"What else do you want to say about Yating taking over Liu's business?"
As soon as these words came out, no one dared to object. If someone objected at this time, it would be equivalent to admitting that he was the one who attacked Yating. This was also a strategy of Liu Guojun. He expected that no one would do it again. If he objects, the old man will not let him go.
Those present here are also core members of the Liu family. They naturally understand the characters of Liu Guojun and the old man. Internal fighting is okay, but if someone dares to hurt their beloved Liu Yating, then even the old man will personally drive him out of the Liu family. , so no one dares to object at this time. They even tried their best to prove that this matter has nothing to do with them.
Seeing that no one objected, Liu Guojun felt relieved. At this moment, the door was opened from the outside, and an old man walked in slowly from the door. He was a little weak and could not walk very smoothly, but even so , everyone present stood up immediately, even Liu Yating stood up this time. The old man ignored everyone, just walked straight to Liu Yating, patted Liu Yating on the shoulder with a smile.
"It will be your fault from now on, Yating. Grandpa knows that you have no intention of competing for this position. Unfortunately, these uncles of yours are not capable and cannot educate anyone like you. Grandpa cannot ignore them or the Liu family." ! It’s so painful for you!” The old man said this with a guilty face, turned around and left helplessly.
However, these few words of the old man were like a hammer, finalizing Liu Yating's takeover of the Liu family's business. Seeing that the situation was settled, everyone left one after another. This family meeting ended here. Liu Yating looked at the old man with a bitter look on her face. The departing figure also turned around to leave.
"Yating, wait a minute. I have something to talk to you about." Liu Guojun walked up to Liu Yating. Although his eyes were full of love for his daughter and even felt a little guilty, he suddenly didn't know how to talk to himself. got along with her daughter.
"What's the matter? I've already agreed to what you asked me to do!" Liu Yating said coldly. Looking at her cold look, one could tell that there was a lot of dissatisfaction hidden in her heart, and she also wanted to live an easy life. First of all, she didn't want to take over the family affairs. Although she had promised her father, she still had a lot of dissatisfaction in her heart, not only with his decision this time, but also with his previous indifference to her and her mother's affairs.
"I know you have a lot of resentment towards me. I'm not asking you to forgive your father this time. I've just seen the person who saved you. Even your grandfather has a good impression of him. If he really has some If you can, you might as well keep him by your side to protect your safety."
Liu Guojun looked at Liu Yating a little cautiously, for fear that she would annoy him even more. This is really the tragedy of being a father! Liu Yating was silent at this time, seeming to be thinking about this issue. This time, her father's suggestion was quite in line with her wishes. Personally speaking, Liu Yating wanted Xiaodao to stay. After all, she still had a good chat with him. He came, and there was a sense of mystery about Xiaodao, which made Liu Yating very curious about him.
Seeing his daughter's appearance, he naturally knew what she was thinking. Liu Guojun also smiled slightly, but there was a bit of bitterness in his smile. The girl couldn't help herself. It seemed that it was necessary to investigate this boy named Zhang Xiaodao. It seemed that My daughter must have a slight affection for him! Who knows the bitterness in my heart, and who knows the helplessness of a father!
