"Do you think it's possible?" Qianshu didn't give him any face.
"Well... there should still be a slight possibility. We can't just admit defeat without fighting..."
Xu Qian found Qianshu and Shanshan looking at him intently, "What? You don't believe that I can win?"
Shanshan slowly shook her head, Qianshu smiled and said nothing.
"You..." Xu Qian simply turned to Lin Qiaoni, who had been silent all this time, "Qiaoni, tell me, do you think I don't even have the slightest chance of winning?"
Lin Qiaoni looked away from the window, glanced at Xu Qian, and then looked out the window again without saying a word.
Xu Qian seemed to be greatly insulted. He had to put his last hope on Li Yuanxi who was driving.
Before Xu Qian could open his mouth, Li Yuanxi took the initiative and said, "I'm driving!"
Xu Qian was extremely unhappy. He remembered that there was another chance to earn back his face, "Xiao Huan! Where have you been hiding?"
Xiao Huan jumped out of the trunk, "Xu Qian, you have always been my idol, but even if you can't beat the immortal, to be honest, it won't hinder your tall image in my heart." After saying that, Xiao Huan Immediately jumped back into the trunk.
The group of people went out today just to go shopping and have a big meal. Lin Qiaoni and Shanshan were far more interested in shopping than visiting scenic spots. Qianshu was not very interested in shopping. In fact, Xu Qian couldn't figure out what she was interested in. But she is also considered gregarious. She can go wherever everyone says, but she never chooses. Li Yuanxi is most interested in the cultural attractions in the capital. After all, the Tang Dynasty and China have been on a completely different world line in the past thousand years. There are no dynasties after the Tang Dynasty, so Li Yuanxi is still very interested in these attractions, but He is also very accommodating to Lin Qiaoni and is also good at shopping.
Even though Qianshu doesn't work in China, she doesn't have no savings. Not to mention how many treasures she has in the storage space that can be exchanged for money as an elf princess. From the time she met Xu Qian, the value of the trophies she obtained is enough to save money in the capital. She bought several houses, but she always gave them all to Xu Qian, and she didn't have a penny of her own. Xu Qian has always been curious about what kind of family Qianshu came from to have such a light desire for material things.
During dinner, because the hotel happened to be holding an anniversary event, we held a lively lottery game. The second prize was a gold-plated necklace, and the pendant was a small drop-shaped music box. Open the drop-shaped pendant and you can After listening to a short piece of electronic music from "Castle in the Sky" that everyone is familiar with, this design actually makes the necklace look unclassy, but it is easy to win the favor of little girls.
"Brother, I want that necklace." Shanshan seemed to have a special liking for necklaces, but she completely ignored the first prize of free meals for the whole table.
In fact, that's right. With Xu Qian's current consumption power and power, the cost of a meal is really not worth it at all. It's not even a drop in the bucket. It's not as happy as some interesting small objects.
"You want me to pay for this thing? The price is too low, eat your chicken drumsticks." Xu Qian ignored Shanshan's eager eyes. What is his current status? How could he use secret techniques to draw prizes for this little thing? Cheating? No, with Xiao Xu’s character, no matter how great the benefit is, he won’t do it.
Shanshan felt resentful and a little unhappy, but when the waiter brought the dessert cake, Xiao Nizi quickly started eating happily with a small spoon, forgetting about the necklace.
"Second prize, the lucky guest who won the second prize is guest No. 121. Guest No. 121 please raise your hand to indicate, or go directly to the stage to receive the prize."
"Sister Qiaoni, your number is 120. It's such a pity that you almost won the prize." Shanshan looked regretful. She was a child, and the waiter didn't give her the lucky draw number sticker when she entered. , so the only thing she can do now is to look forward to others.
"Mine is No. 121. Did I win?" Xu Qian picked up his card with a number printed on it, and it was clearly 120.
"Ah! Brother, it's really you. Raise your hands quickly, hurry up!" Shanshan was so excited that she almost jumped up.
"Didn't you say that the price was too low?" Shanshan looked proud. She believed that this was the result of Xu Qian's use of secret techniques to control the lottery.
Xu Qian said helplessly: "I really don't. This is purely luck, real luck." But he could see that no one at the table believed in him. Well, whatever you think.
After the waiter checked Xu Qian's lucky number, he solemnly handed the necklace to Xu Qian, and the host also expressed the hope of taking photos with their table of lucky guests.
Shanshan reached out to pick up the necklace and play with it. Xu Qian was quick and took it first. He turned on the music box function and a piece of sweet music came to his ears.
"What kind of music is this?" Qian Shu seemed to be slightly interested in the music.
"City in the sky." Xu Qian replied.
Qianshu didn't say anything, but took the necklace from Xu Qian's hand and listened to the music quietly.
Many people like the song "Castle in the Sky", but the sound effect of this electronic sound is really not flattering. It can be said that it is the lowest version of "Castle in the Sky" that Xu Qian has ever heard, but since Qian Shu likes it, that's fine.
"This necklace is for you." Xu Qian's tone was gentle.
"Brother! This is a cheap thing for children to play with. If you want to give a gift to Sister Qianshu, you have to buy something expensive." Shanshan expressed different opinions on the side.
Lin Qiaoni also joined in the fun, "Shanshan is right, you just used such a broken necklace from a lottery to fool Qianshu. Now that you are rich, why are you still so stingy?"
Xu Qian felt a little wronged. He also gave it to Qian Shu when he saw that he liked it. Did I deliberately not give it to her if Qian Shu liked it?
"As long as I like it, I don't care if it's expensive or not." Qian Shu smiled and was about to put the necklace on his neck.
It was so considerate, Qianshu was so considerate, Xu Qian was very happy. He quickly took the necklace over and helped Qian Shu put it on.
Shanshan saw that there was no hope, so she had no choice but to give up. She had a lot of gadgets like this, and Xu Qian spent a lot of money on her, but Qian Shu rarely liked one thing, and Shanshan was not the kind of ignorant naughty child, so naturally she would not make trouble anymore.
After returning to the hotel and working for a while, Xu Qian heard the music of Sky City coming from outside the balcony. He also walked out of his balcony and found Qianshu holding a necklace in his hand, listening to the music and looking up at the stars.
"Are you homesick?"
A few seconds later, Qianshu's voice was clear, but the content was a little heavy, "I no longer have a home."
The two were silent for a long time, and after a long time she continued: "My mother passed away after giving birth to me. The day you saw me was the day my father died in battle and our clan was destroyed. My second brother's life and death are still uncertain. In this life I don’t know if I will ever see him again.”
Xu Qianqian felt that Qianshu's mood was unusually calm, just like her usual.
"When I was a child, I had no mother, so my father made me a life-size rag doll. Once I was unhappy, I would lie down in the doll's arms and let it hold me, just like a mother holds a child. . When I grew up, my father would watch the stars with me. He told me that my mother was on the brightest star. I asked him which one it was, and he said he didn’t know. If he knew, then I have flown up to bring my mother back."
Xu Qian listened quietly as the music of the necklace played over and over again. This was the first time Qianshu told Xu Qian about himself since they had known each other for so long.
"Now, even my father is dead, at the hands of the Tianmen Sect in Hongmeng Continent. Even looking at the stars, now I am alone."
"Me! I will accompany you." Xu Qian looked at Qianshu who was standing on another balcony.
Qian Shu raised the necklace on her hand and said, "Thank you for giving me the necklace."
Seeing Qianshu return to his room, Xu Qian silently muttered in his heart - Tianmen Sect!
Maybe it’s time to go to Hongmeng Continent.
Xu Qian had the urge to go to Hongmeng Continent because Vivian was abducted by Po Meng of Hades Palace as a disciple, but Zhang Yunting's words made him sober up. With his current strength, even if he goes, there is no other possibility except to die. Now that he knows that Qianshu's enemy is also a sect in Hongmeng Continent, it seems that fate is constantly signaling to him that he needs to go to Hongmeng Continent, even if it is the dragon's pond and tiger's den.
