If someone asks Chi Zao why he liked to follow Xiao Yu in the first place.
There are too many reasons.
Because he is always alone, like an orphan. She can't be with a couple and eat dog food after death.
Because his life is so much higher than ordinary people's, it's exciting and complicated, just like watching a TV series.
What's more, he is a person who doesn't sleep much.
Night was the most lonely time for her, and having someone as awake as her made her seem less lonely.
But in fact, until the moment of rebirth, Chi Zao didn't understand the relationship between Xiao Yu and Lin Ran.
How deep is Xiao Yu?
Probably, even when he was alone, he still rarely revealed the secrets in his heart.
For example, Chi Zao doesn't know why he hates women so much and why he hates women saying "like" to him.
She could see clearly that Xiao Yu was indeed special to Lin Ran.
Xiao Yu helped Lin Ran too much.
Even later, when Lin Ran cried and confessed his love to Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu was not angry.
Although she didn't accept it calmly, and after that time, Xiao Yu still alienated her.
It's neither love nor family affection. Chi already doesn't understand why he treats her differently.
Later, Xiao Yu gradually stopped caring about Lin Ran, and Lin Ran married Gu Cendong.
In the last two years, they had no contact with each other. Lin Ran lived the life of a rich wife, while Xiao Yu went dark step by step and tried to destroy the world.
But that was several years later.
And now, Xiao Yu is still Lin Ran's biggest supporter. How could Xiao Yu not know that Lin Ran was responsible for kidnapping her?
Does he mean...to protect Lin Ran?
For Lin Ran's safety, come to her, ask her, and then warn her not to accuse Lin Ran?
Chi Zao stood in front of the window, lowering his eyes slightly.
His tone became lighter, "I know, others have set me up like this. If I didn't know it yet, wouldn't I be a fool?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment.
"Master, we're here..." Yan Fei's voice came into the phone from a distance.
Xiao Yu seemed to have something to do, so he hung up the phone without saying anything more.
The book of life and death in the system kept flashing, and Chi Zao turned it off after looking at it.
…
Fame Hotel is the most high-end five-star hotel in Ningcheng, and the owner behind it is Xiao Yu.
Everyone in Ningcheng's upper class knows that Xiao Yu's properties are not many, but they are all top-notch. He is backed by the huge Xiao Group. Although the industry has nothing to do with the Xiao Group, no one in Ningcheng dares to invest in Xiao Group.
Yu's territory is running wild.
When Mr. Qin came to Ningcheng, he stayed at the Yuming Hotel.
But only Li Weiming and Xiao Yu knew about this.
Li Weiming didn't know the relationship between Xiao Yu and Mr. Qin, and was shocked when he found out that he was staying in Xiao Yu's hotel.
I wanted to invite Mr. Qin to my home, but he was decisively rejected.
This made Li Weiming quite strange.
Logically speaking, Mr. Qin's visit to Ningcheng should not be known to others. But Xiao Yu has many tricks, which are not simple. And the Xiao family has invited Mr. Qin over again and again.
If the news that Mr. Qin came to Ningcheng and stayed in Xiao Yu's hotel leaked out, it would definitely be troublesome.
Isn't his home safer than a prestigious hotel?
But no one can change what the old man decided, and no one dares to question it.
Li Weiming had just sent the old man back to the hotel. Because of his identity, he couldn't come forward, so he sat in the car and watched the man go in.
He waited outside for a while before driving away in person.
As soon as the low-key black car turned around, a Bentley drove past and parked in front of the magnificent hotel.
Li Weiming happened to see Xiao Yu get out of the car. He was startled and made a vigilant call to Mr. Qin.
"Old man, are you going up? Hey, that's good. I'll go back now. But I just saw the Xiao family. If anything happens, old man, just call me and I'll show up at any time."
After hanging up the phone, Li Weiming rubbed his eyebrows and left when he saw Xiao Yu entering the hotel and disappearing from sight.
…
On the top floor of the hotel, Xiao Yu pressed the doorbell of the presidential suite.
Soon, the door opened, revealing the gentle face of Butler Qin, "Master Xiao is here."
Xiao Yu said a faint "hmm" and walked into the presidential suite.
"Boy, you are quite punctual. I did a fortune-telling this morning, and the fortune-telling showed that an old friend will come to my door tonight, and it turns out that it was just getting dark, and you came." The old man with gray beard and gray hair sat at the glass round table.
In front of him, there was a white jade chessboard on the table. Even the black and white chess pieces were carved from jade. Without looking back, he placed a chess piece and said, "Come, let me play a game with the old man."
Xiao Yu walked over.
Yan Fei thought for a moment and did not follow him into the house, but waited outside.
Xiao Yu and the old man sat opposite each other.
He looked at the chessboard carefully, dropped the white piece he picked up, and asked, "Why did the old man come to Ningcheng so quietly this time?"
"I didn't want to come and see what kind of place you, the boy, stay here and don't want to leave." Mr. Qin sighed, "Your family invited me five times but I didn't come, so I'm just waiting for you, the boy.
Please beg me, you are so kind, you are really hard-hearted."
Xiao Yu twitched the corners of his lips sarcastically, "Why, help them invite you to run against me? Drive me out of the house?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, but did not move the chess piece. He only stared at Xiao Yu's stunning face, "I have heard that you don't get along with your brothers and sisters, but I also heard that you are
The Xiao family is very favored, otherwise it would not be able to cultivate such a domineering and arrogant temperament like yours. There are many feuds between wealthy families, but with your personality, will you still be bullied?"
"It's just because you can't bully me that I have to find a way from you." Xiao Yu said in a nonchalant tone. When he raised his head, he saw the old man staring at him. He raised his eyebrows slightly, "Old man, what do you want to see from my face?
Don’t forget our agreement, you can’t do anything to me without my permission.”
The old man coughed lightly, "Xiao Yu, counting and looking are two different things. We agreed that we can't calculate your past and destiny, but we didn't say we can't calculate your face. But don't worry, from a physiognomy point of view
, what I can know through your face is very limited."
"Oh..." Xiao Yu took a sip of the tea handed over by Butler Qin and said in a lazy voice, "Then what do you want to see now?"
The old man looked at him meaningfully for a long time, and a smile suddenly appeared on his old face, "You want to know?"
Xiao Yu felt that his smile was not simple, so he frowned slightly.
The next second, I heard the old man speak slowly, "Xiao Yu, I haven't seen you for half a year. I didn't expect that someone as cold and cold-hearted as you would actually appear in Hongluan Xing."
Xiao Yu paused and swayed the tea in his hand slightly.
Mr. Qin looked at Xiao Yu with great interest, even the chessboard in front of him no longer smelled good.
For a moment, Xiao Yu raised his eyes, his light brown pupils were indifferent and calm, "Old man, do masters of metaphysics sometimes make mistakes?"
