The old man has a ruddy complexion and smooth skin, and there are no lines at the corners of his eyes when he smiles.
Wearing a black Tang suit makes the old man look a bit fairy-like.
…
"Little friend Xiao Xiao."
The old man's tone was gentle, with a hint of obvious surprise on his face, "Long time no see."
"Senior brother?"
The man walked over, his cold face full of surprise.
Although he could hear on the phone that his senior brother valued this young man named Xiao Xiao, he never expected that his senior brother would come to the door to pick him up in person.
Except for the master, he has never seen his senior brother be so polite to anyone.
After all, senior brother's strength and seniority are there.
This young man...
The man looked at the young man next to him with a rather complicated look.
…
Mr. Jiang didn't think there was anything wrong with his move.
Little friend Xiao Xiao is a Taotie demon master with great strength.
The future prospects are even more limitless.
It's hard to overemphasize the importance he showed.
…
"Junior brother."
The old man smiled at the man, and then looked at Xiao Xiao, "Little friend Xiao Xiao, let's not stop at the door."
"Come on, let's go to the box and talk."
"good."
Xiao Xiao followed the old man and walked to the teahouse.
The man frowned as he looked at the backs of the two men, then took big steps to follow them.
...
The interior of Qingyuan is as its name suggests, clean and elegant, with several clumps of bamboo placed randomly but actually adding to its character.
Full of greenery.
There is also gurgling water.
What made Xiao Xiao even more delighted was the aroma of fine tea that hit his nostrils.
Such a pure and mellow tea aroma is worthy of its praise among tea lovers.
Xiao Xiao is looking forward to the tea here more and more.
...
Noticing the pleasant aura around Xiao Xiao, even though it was an expected reaction, the old man breathed a sigh of relief.
He remembered that at the teahouse last time, Xiao Xiao only took a sip of tea and then put down the tea cup.
At that time, he thought it was because young people didn't like the bitterness of tea.
Later I learned that little friend Xiao Xiao’s family owned a teahouse, although this did not mean that little friend Xiao Xiao definitely liked drinking tea.
However, he naturally has channels to obtain some information about little friend Xiao Xiao.
Of course, he didn't deliberately investigate little friend Xiao Xiao.
He knew that this was rude and very unpleasant.
Especially for demon masters who are more sensitive and proud than ordinary people.
He was curious about Xiao Xiao, but he didn't want to offend a demon master with a Taotie.
He just asked a few questions about the Manchu family.
The Man family learned some information about little friend Xiao Xiao from Li Yan and told him this information.
He also knew some general information about little friend Xiao Xiao.
For example, Xiao Xiao is a top student at Yanda.
For example, Xiao Xiao’s friend opened a Xiao’s Teahouse in his home.
For example, little friend Xiao Xiao likes to drink tea.
Moreover, the requirements for tea are quite high.
...
The old man suddenly realized that Xiao Xiao only took a sip of tea that time in the teahouse, not because he was not used to drinking tea.
But just like him, the tea there couldn't enter Xiao Xiao's mouth.
...
Because he knew that Xiao Xiao liked to drink tea, he specially chose Qingyuan as the place for the two to meet.
He is a member of Qingyuan.
It is still possible to request a private room temporarily.
...
Qingyuan’s private rooms are only open to members.
The space in the lobby is limited, so it is so difficult to make a reservation at Qingyuan.
...
"Little friend Xiao Xiao, please come in."
After the waiter opened the door, the old man greeted Xiao Xiao.
The man silently followed the two of them into the box.
Obviously it was his senior brother who had trouble with him in the beginning, but now it is also his senior brother who is ignoring him.
What is it about this young man that senior brother pays so much attention to?
Although the young man caught his knife twice before, he was a little surprised.
I also developed some curiosity about this young man.
but......
He just caught his knife.
...
"Little friend Xiao Xiao, please sit down."
The old man also sat down in his seat, and then looked at the man standing to one side.
"You sit down too."
"What are you doing standing there?"
"Will you be our guard?"
The old man was a bit teasing.
...
Only then did the man realize that he had just been in a trance.
"The price for letting me be a guard is very high."
The man curled his lips.
He pulled out the chair next to the old man and sat down.
His eyes naturally fell on Xiao Xiao opposite him.
...
The old man shook his head slightly and did not answer.
It was just a joke.
No need to take it too seriously.
Like the man, he looked at the young man opposite, "Master Xiao, do you have a favorite tea?"
"No particular preference."
Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "Any kind of tea is fine."
As long as it's good tea.
"Then I'll take a closer look."
The old man turned to wave to the waiter standing on the side and said a few words.
The waiter quickly exited the box.
...
"Master Xiao, did my junior brother do something?"
The old man's sudden words stunned both Xiao Xiao and the man.
Looking at the expressions of the two people, the old man smiled and said, "It seems I guessed it right."
The old man's acumen made Xiao Xiao a little amazed and surprised, and he could tell from this, "Mr. Jiang, you know your junior brother very well."
"Yes or no......"
The old man thought thoughtfully, "Did he take action against the monster around you?"
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows were slightly curved and he didn't speak, but this was his default attitude.
"really."
The old man turned around and glared at the man sitting next to him, "How many times have I told you, why can't you listen?"
The old man had quite a bit of a headache.
The man lowered his eyes and looked at the table in front of him without saying a word.
He knew that once he refuted or made any other similar response, the "education" given to him by his senior brother would be a very long and painful time.
...
Seeing the man's "non-violent non-cooperation" look, the old man twitched his lips.
He looked at Xiao Xiao with a wry smile on his face, "I'm sorry, little friend Xiao Xiao, my junior brother has some prejudice against monsters."
"As long as he sees a monster, he will take action regardless of it."
"I've told him this many times, but..."
The old man rubbed his temples.
He knew that his junior brother's behavior was related to what happened to him when he was a child.
Junior brother hates monsters from the bottom of his heart and wishes that creatures like monsters would completely disappear from the world.
In my junior brother's opinion, monsters that ordinary people cannot see have no meaning in the world.
This is the concept that my junior brother has developed since he was a child, and it can be said that it is almost ingrained in his mind.
He worked hard for a long time, but in the end he could only settle for the second best and let his juniors accept the concept of not working in vain.
Don't attack monsters that are not the target of your mission.
That's so thankless.
They rely on this to make a living, so they naturally need money to do things.
Fortunately, my junior brother slowly accepted this statement.
Compared to the initial desire to go out and find monsters to deal with every day, I have become a maniac who takes on quests.
