The vermilion small building is exquisite and elegant. Yu Xing estimates that if the color were changed, Yiqing would definitely like it very much.
Since Zhao Yijiu wanted to introduce him well, Yu Xing naturally asked: "Where are those two women from?"
Being able to live on the same floor means that the relationship is relatively close.
“They are all my relatives. They are a little older than me, but I haven’t seen them much since I was a child. Zhao Mou is relatively familiar with them.” Zhao Yijiu said lightly.
After Yu Xing heard this, he thought for a moment and turned his attention to another place.
He is thinking...
Zhao Yijiu's acting style is different from that of the Zhao family in general. They are shrewd and tactful. His social skills are close to negative points. He is a logician. He walks in the deduction with a short knife.
The fact that he is a special being was confirmed when Yu Xing discovered that he was from the Zhao family.
Yu Xing didn’t have a clear idea of what caused the fact that Zhao Yijiu grew crookedly. It wasn’t until today that Zhao Yijiu said in person that “I haven’t seen many people since I was a child” that he realized
Probably it was not the later experiences that led to Zhao Yijiao's gloominess, but the fact that he himself was the reason why the Zhao family adopted a different way of cultivating Zhao Yjiu.
It seems that this kid’s own power is worth exploring~
After all, with himself as an example, Yu Xing was full of interest in everyone who had a special physique before entering the deduction.
He glanced at Zhao Yjiu. Unexpectedly, after Zhao Yjiu advanced to the right path, his perception has greatly improved, and he glanced back in an instant: "?"
"I'm introducing you to the identity of the guests on the second floor, but you're distracted." This icy temperament is here, and his voice is cold. Even if he explains in a serious manner, it always makes people think that he is reading a death list.
Not even a suit or glasses can save him.
Yu Xing really didn’t listen. He was distracted and was caught at the scene. Hearing this, he still had no shame and asked: “Then why don’t you say it again?”
Zhao Yijiu: “……”
His words have reached their limit.
"You can check it out yourself if you are interested." After saying this, he quickened his pace and stepped into the small vermilion building.
Yu Xing: “Oh.”
Maybe it’s because this building is relatively remote. I didn’t see anyone along the way, but there were people walking together in other places in my sight from time to time. Except for the logistics staff with work badges, all of them looked young.
Just as Zhao Mou said to Yu Xing, this is a gathering of the younger generation of the three major families, and the term "young" basically refers to people under the age of thirty.
Because even members of the three major families would not be exposed to absurdity prematurely, like Zhao Yijiu. He only entered the qualification test in an abandoned factory at the age of twenty-two, which is still early.
Except for some minorities who enter the deduction game when they have just come of age, most members officially come into contact with absurdity at the age of twenty-four or five. Until the age of thirty, those who are still alive can basically advance to the differentiation line, which is enough to participate in the annual gathering.
Stand out in the game and compete fairly in the live broadcast of Death Parallel.
In other words, even though Zhao Mou is already responsible for an entire branch line, he is actually only twenty-eight years old and can still be counted among the younger generation. This time he is both the person in charge and a participant in the party.
One of the members.
Yu Xing thought about it for a moment, and among the people in Fenggu Lanting, the person least qualified to stand here... is him.
Ahem, no, if you look young, you are really young.
The vermilion building looks full of ancient style from the outside. Once inside, the first floor also continues this style. In front of the hall, koi fish swim shallowly, and a large water tank is placed in the center of the pool, with lotus plants planted there.
The lamps on the wall were elegant and suitable, and the stairs were hidden behind a screen, winding and winding. Yu Xing followed Zhao Yijiu for a few steps when he suddenly heard a faint and powerful voice from the side: "Wang Zha!"
"
A series of frustrated hisses followed.
Zhao Yijiu: “……”
Yu Xing became interested, and as soon as he turned around, his body that was about to go upstairs turned to the door of the side room.
Zhao Yijiu glanced at him and turned around with a paralyzed face to follow him.
I saw four or five people in formal clothes playing cards on a long table in the side room.
The game they were playing didn't seem to be any difficult game, it was the most common fight against landlords. Just now the landlord threw out Wang Zha, which made three farmers booed in dissatisfaction. One of them looked about 27 or 28 years old and was wearing a hip-hugging skirt.
The curly-haired woman even lit up a lady's cigarette with a click, showing a very unhappy look.
They quickly noticed the person at the door. When the woman saw it, she raised her majestic maple-leaf red lips: "A drink? Haha, do you want to play some together?"
The short-haired lady wearing glasses next to her was the landowner of this game. After playing a three, she casually received: "Let's talk about chicken and not talk about it. We should be civilized."
“Do you want to answer this?” The smoking curly-haired woman smiled and said to Zhao Yijiu, “Are you coming, young handsome man? It’s strange that you would come over on your own initiative even if your brother didn’t pull you.”
Zhao Yijiu looked at the two women with relaxed postures and said coldly: "I didn't come over on my own initiative; I was"
“Is this Zhao Yijiu from your branch? I’ve admired his name for a long time.” A voice rang out, interrupting his words.
Compared to the two women, the remaining two "farmers" and one person sitting nearby were all men. They looked Zhao Yijiao up and down, and their smiles were a little strange.
It’s like looking at an exhibit.
The curly-haired woman frowned, and then said: "Yes, it's him. He was promoted within two months of entering the simulation. He's very powerful, isn't he? He's from our family! Zhao Xu, you should learn more from him, maybe you can pass."
It won’t be long before they surpass you~”
As soon as she said these words, several men subconsciously withdrew their gazes and realized that even though Zhao Yijiu's position in the Zhao family was very embarrassing, he was incompatible with others because of his ability and style, and had received a lot of criticism, but their branches
Every person has his own fault, and he is always the one who protects his shortcomings.
Only the short-haired woman seemed to have just raised her face from the card game: "Yijiu, who is behind you?"
later?
Zhao Yijiu glanced back and saw the culprit who had dragged him here to watch the fun hiding behind him, saying "Did I disturb the boss's card game? I don't know these people. It's a bit embarrassing. Oops."
It’s my first time attending a party, so I’m really nervous” with a weak face.
Yes, he could only use the word "face" to describe Yu Xing's current appearance, otherwise it would not be enough to express his "admiration" for Yu Xing's acting skills.
Well, Zhao Mou’s worries are completely unnecessary.
After a pause, Zhao Yijiu couldn't bear it anymore and took Yu Xing out from behind: "His name is Yu Xing, and he is the one brought by my brother."
“Wow~” The curly-haired woman looked at Yu Xing and exclaimed without restraint at all, and punched out a K in her hand, “So this is Yu Xing, I didn’t expect him to be a very cute little brother!”
The short-haired woman nodded with deep understanding: "Indeed."
Yu Xing smiled shyly: "Hello, two sisters."
Zhao Yijiu: "?"
"The foreign surname brought by Zhao Mou? It's really curious." The man who was not at the card table was thin and had a feminine appearance. He squinted for a while and said, "Just appearance can give you a lot of advantages, but Zhao Mou can
You are not a superficial person, but to be favored by him, you must be a ruthless character, right?"
Compared with the positive feedback given by the two ladies, this person obviously would not take Yu Xing's appearance lightly. Instead, he seemed to be praising her, but in fact he was reminding the other two companions that "this person is probably pretending."
Yu Xing stretched out his hand to rub the fur collar that was a little messy due to the rising temperature after entering the house, and nodded in agreement: "What you said makes sense, so I should be quite ruthless."
“Pfft.” The curly-haired woman laughed and urged, “What are you stunned for? Come on. Hey, Zhao Jiaming, I’ll replace you later? I think you’re almost bored to death just sitting here.”
Zhao Jiaming also laughed, and there was a hint of looking for trouble in his soft eyes: "Okay. But this Mr. Yu is really interesting. You call me sister, why don't you also call me brother? They are all from the Zhao family.
We'll get to know each other better if we have the opportunity later, so it's not a bad thing to get to know each other in advance, right?"
"That won't work. Brother Jiu will be angry. My first game was brought by Brother Jiu, so I just call him brother." After Yu Xing finished speaking shamelessly, he still insisted on spreading his wings in front of the real owner, "right?
Brother Liquor."
Zhao Yijiu narrowed his eyes slightly and said in front of the card players: "It's good to know. People from other branches don't need to pay attention. They are all opponents in the live broadcast deduction."
The Zhao family is fiercely competitive with each other, but they like to talk in a roundabout way. No matter how bad the relationship is, they will give each other a room to maneuver. For example, now, two branches that are not very good at each other can play cards together, and
You can even joke and laugh, creating an illusion of fun.
Whether it is Zhao Mou, the curly-haired woman, the short-haired woman, or Zhao Jiaming, Zhao Xu and others, they are all accustomed to this. Perhaps this ability to make mistakes has long been engraved in the DNA, and it is very similar to the Vanity Fair in the business district.
Zhao Yijiu is probably the only person in the whole family who can ignore anything and directly attack whoever is upset.
After what he said, Zhao Jiaming was not in a good mood, but he just smiled.
The curly-haired woman seemed particularly happy. She leaned forward on the table with a smile, revealing her proud curves: "I will stop barking when I drink this little iceberg. I can't scream. Hey, will handsome guy Yu come to play cards?"
In less than two minutes, the title of handsome boy in her mouth had changed hands.
Yu Xing didn't mind stirring up trouble in this group of smiling tigers and calmly pissed off the three men one by one, but Zhao Yijiu obviously didn't want to waste time here, so he answered on his behalf: "He won't play, I will do it later."
Brother, look for him."
“Hey, Zhao Mou will be here soon?” The curly-haired woman extracted the key words and twisted her slender fingers around the end of her hair twice, “Then you go up and we’ll have dinner together later~”
Zhao Yijiu didn't answer, turned around and left with Yu Xing.
Although the stairs are made of wood, they are of very good quality and are covered with a thin layer of brown mats, so you won’t make any noise when walking on them.
Arrived on the fourth floor, there was no one around. Zhao Yijiu took out the door card from his suit pants and gave it to Yu Xing, and said calmly: "Are you satisfied?"
Yu Xing took the room card, swiped it on the door lock of his room, reached out and pressed the handle: "What are you satisfied with?"
"Don't you just want to take the opportunity to test my and my brother's status in the Zhao family so as to prepare for what's to come?" Zhao Yijiu stopped moving and just looked at him with his pockets in his pockets, "I said, you
You should be on guard against me and don’t treat me like a fool who doesn’t notice anything.”
"Ha!" Seeing Xiao Bingshan showing this vivid emotion of wanting to prove himself for the second time, Yu Xing opened the door, faced the modern luxury display inside that was completely different from the outside world, and walked in without changing his expression.
,"Come in."
Zhao Yijiu hesitated for a moment, thinking that Zhao Mou would come over soon, so he followed him in obediently.
The air conditioner in the room was on, making it quiet and comfortable. Yu Xing took off his down jacket and scratched it on the coat rack by the door. He tilted his head and said, "Indeed, I can see that you are consciously exercising your thinking acuity. It's not bad. It deserves encouragement."
~”
Bing Bizizi's face was about to turn into exuberant and broken ice. He felt blocked and couldn't see clearly. He closed the door and stood motionless by the door, like a hamster that had been knocked out of its home.
After Yu Xing finished gagging, he felt that he could no longer be funny, and if he continued to tease people, he would lose his popularity. Then he began to answer Zhao Yijiao's question: "Well, the results of the test are quite satisfactory, and they are quite different from what I imagined."
Big, big families are usually spread all over the world. The term "family affection" is a bit unrealistic. They are more like colleagues competing for performance. Whoever performs well will be valued more by the family... right?
"
Zhao Yijiu nodded silently.
There are not many people in his branch, and a lot of the burden falls on Zhao Mou. As a result, Zhao Mou not only has to work hard to find a way to survive in the increasingly difficult deductions, but also has to worry about managing many things and training some people to make this possible.
The branch never lags behind in family competition.
It can be said that the Zhao family is the most profit-oriented among the three major families and does not care about human relationships. Although it sounds a bit mean, this may be the most suitable way of getting along with this group of people.
“But,” Zhao Yijiu said suddenly, “you don’t have to help me make others angry. I don’t care about their looks. I don’t have the chance to interact with them in Mijin City.”
Yu Xing lazily said: "I am happy."
Zhao Yijiu was silent for two seconds, then suddenly smiled.
The appearance of this expression on his face was short-lived, but it was obvious that his mood improved again.
“The two people playing cards downstairs are the women who live with us on the fourth floor?” Yu Xing found the biscuits on the TV cabinet in the room and took one to eat.
“Well, the one with curly hair is called Zhao Yingying, and the other one is called Zhao Miao.”
Yu Xing thought for a while: "Looking at it, I feel that they are not completely unfamiliar with you. After all, they can make fun of your temperament that may kill people at any time. In fact, we have a good relationship, right?"
Zhao Yijiu looked strange for a moment: "It's really ordinary, it's just..."
"Um?"
“They are familiar with Zhao Mou, so they occasionally regard me as their younger brother. But”
There were not many things that could make this man stop talking, so Yu Xing waited with great interest to see what he could say.
"The reason why they have such a good relationship is probably because they often go to nightclubs together." Zhao Yijing's expression returned to normal, as if he was talking about what to eat tonight, "As for whether we should go to the nightclub separately to find someone to hang out with, or just... I just
Not sure anymore.”
Yu Xing was stunned for a moment, then said "Ouch": "We are not closely related by blood, are we?"
Zhao Yijiu coughed lightly: "I don't know."
He never asked about his brother's private romantic deeds, since it was impossible for Zhao Mou to cause trouble for him anyway.
“Before I entered the door, I seemed to hear someone with his elbows turned out talking bad about me?” Suddenly, Zhao Mou’s voice sounded outside the door.
