Seeing Chen Xi asking questions and the young man in brocade robes shaking his head, everyone opened their mouths. It felt like they were in a dream, so unreal.
Ren Pingping, in particular, was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped to the ground. She was trembling all over. Although she was lying in the arms of the young man in brocade robes, she could no longer feel any warmth.
Even the biggest foreign aid in her heart was like a mouse after seeing a cat. How could she remain calm? In an instant, she felt that she was on an iron plate this time!
But she couldn't believe it all, because it was too ridiculous. You know, this is a descendant of the Zijin Bai family, a well-known young master in the entire spiritual world!
Even the disciples of the top ten immortal sects would have a huge headache when they met him. They would hide as far away as possible, not because of how high his cultivation level was, but because his background was too scary.
After all, the Zijin Bai family is famous for protecting their shortcomings. No matter whether they are right or wrong, anyone who offends them will inevitably suffer some implication and punishment.
And the young man in brocade robes in front of him, with the towering tree of Bauhinia Baijia as his support, has become a fierce beast, giving everyone a headache and worrying about getting into trouble.
But who would have thought that when facing that handsome young man, he would actually act like a good baby. If this was spread, who would dare to believe it?
It goes without saying that this young man in brocade robes is Bai Gunan. He was once severely beaten by Chen Xi in public at the highest level of Bingyun Pavilion. He still clearly remembers that shameful scene.
Originally, after leaving Bingxiao City, he planned to find some helpers to deal with Chen Xi severely, but when he met a cousin from the clan, his heart suddenly became colder, and he completely gave up the idea of causing trouble for Chen Xi.
thoughts.
It was only then that he found out that that hateful guy who deserved a thousand cuts actually had a close connection with his sister-in-law!
Even when this bastard was young, my sister-in-law had taken care of this bastard for many years! Not even Bai Gu Nan, even the clan leader's children had enjoyed this kind of treatment!
Therefore, when he saw Chen Xi, he almost hid his face and walked away, as far away as possible, but in the end he still held it back.
There is nothing I can do. I am a member of the majestic Zijin Bai family. It would be too embarrassing to turn around and leave in front of so many people. If word spreads about it, why not discredit the family?
Chen Xi didn't know that at this moment, so many thoughts would arise in Bai Gunan's heart. He still smiled and asked: "Then you want to stand up for that woman?"
Bai Gunan hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and pushed Ren Pingping out of his arms, "No, since this woman dares to offend you, she will be at odds with me, so what's the use of her?"
This scene made everyone present tremble again. They didn't expect that because of Chen Xi's words, Bai Gunan would be so cruel and abandon Pingping!
Not to mention them, Chen Xi was also startled. He glanced at the embarrassed Ren Pingping on the ground and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Mr. Bai, you... the lady treats you so infatuatedly, but you treat her like this, how can I bear it!" The old man suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice.
"How can I not be kind to her?"
Bai Gunan raised his brows, revealing a violent aura. When facing Chen Xi, he could give in, but when dealing with others, he returned to his domineering and arrogant manner. He pointed out the old man and said, "
Don't be shameless, your Ren family has grown from a small family to the size it is now, haven't you taken advantage of me?"
Speaking of this, he pouted hard, pointed at Ren Pingping on the ground, and said violently: "Don't think that I am a fool. You have been hooking up with that pretty boy behind my back all these years, and I don't even bother to care about you.
, after all, the relationship between us is just for fun, but you dare to slap your chest and say that you are infatuated with me?"
"Uncle Chen Xi, their relationship is so complicated." Heizi muttered in a low voice.
"I don't understand the world of Young Master either." Chen Xi shrugged his shoulders.
Ren Pingping originally had a resentful look on her face and put on a pitiful look, trying to win back Bai Gunan's sympathy. However, she never expected that what was waiting for her was not to win over him, but to be yelled at. Her heart suddenly fell into
Abyss, chills all over.
Bai Gunan is right. The rise of her Ren family is absolutely inseparable from Bai Gunan's support. Even this treasure building is a property that Bai Gunan gave to the Ren family!
"Mr. Bai, I was wrong. Please forgive me. I will never dare to do it again. I swear..." Ren Pingping was completely panicked. She knelt in front of Bai Gunan and begged miserably.
"Get out of here!" Bai Gunan kicked her away. He was ruthless. "I'll kill you if you bother me again!"
"You..." The old man was so angry that he was shaking all over.
"What, do you want to be destroyed together with the Ren family?"
Bai Gunan glanced at the old man, his face full of disdain, "Get out of here, don't be an eyesore. If you don't disappear from my eyes within three breaths, don't blame me for not reminding you!"
The old man's face suddenly changed, and he was uncertain. Although he was unwilling to accept it, he finally sighed slumped, helped up Ren Pingping on the ground, turned around and left the Treasure Building.
Like Ren Pingping, he couldn't figure out who the handsome young man was and why Bai Gunan would become so decisive and ruthless for him.
Hong San was completely stunned and couldn't believe that Ren Pingping's powerful foreign aid not only did not cause any harm to Chen Xi, but actually drove Ren Pingping away like a mouse seeing a cat!
Senior Chen Xi... could he be a disciple of some super powerful force?
When he thought of this, Hong San's heart started to beat in despair. For him, any disciple from a famous sect was beyond his reach.
He never thought that one day he would meet such a noble person, which made him feel a little unreal, like he was dreaming.
"Brother Chen, are you satisfied now?" After the two left, Bai Gunan's face suddenly burst into a smile, and his face changed so quickly that the teenagers were stunned.
"Are you worried that I will kill them?" Chen Xi said with a half-smile.
"It's impossible. If you want to kill them, I will catch them right away." Bai Gunan was indeed afraid of being bullied by Chen Xi, so he was careful with his words, lest he offend the other party.
"This matter has been revealed. Speaking of which, I have to thank you this time. After all, you have done me a big favor." Chen Xi said.
"You're too polite. You're too polite. We are one family and we don't speak the same language."
Bai Gunan laughed loudly, as if he already regarded Chen Xi as one of his own, "By the way, what kind of treasure is Brother Chen here to buy this time? Do you want me to help you with the details?"
"The selection has already been made." Chen Xi refused.
He didn't want to have too much contact with this guy. If Yan Shisan was a lunatic, then this guy was a troublemaker. If he became friends with him, he would have to be careful of trouble coming to his door all the time.
"Oh? Where is it? Let me see." Bai Gunan glanced at the envoys around him and asked, "Who is responsible for receiving my brother Chen Xi?"
Chen Xi was startled, and suddenly had the urge to run away from him. This guy... was so good at beating snakes and following sticks, that he had become his big brother without knowing it?
Soon, the envoy who received Chen Xi rushed over and said respectfully: "Mr. Bai, all the treasures that this young man wants are in this storage ring."
As he spoke, he handed over a jasper ring.
"These are all ordinary things from the bad streets. Go get the top treasures. Yes, there are still a hundred sets!" Bai Gunan looked at them and couldn't help but frowned.
"Okay!" The waiter didn't dare to refuse, and ran back to the back hall to prepare.
…
Zuixianju.
The most famous restaurant in Lihuo City.
After getting rid of Bai Gunan's entanglement, Chen Xi took Meng Wei and the others, under the guidance of Hong San, to this restaurant and booked a courtyard.
The teenagers were washing and bathing and putting on new clothes.
Those clothes are all treasures and have no size. No matter whether they are fat or thin, they will automatically adjust their size after putting them on. At first glance, they look like they were tailor-made.
Soon, the teenagers had all changed their clothes and stood there with a renewed spirit.
Chen Xi nodded with satisfaction. If he walked out like this, he would no longer attract attention and be pointed at.
However, what surprised him was that despite wearing new clothes, the teenagers did not throw away the animal skins they had always worn. Instead, they carefully arranged them and wore them around them, as if they would keep them forever.
This scene suddenly made Chen Xi feel a little touched. Perhaps a long time later, when these young people have completely integrated into the world of Xuanhuan and grown into a truly strong man, the only one who can recall the youthful years in the Land of Nine Nethers is this.
Animal skin clothing kept close to the body, right?
And what about yourself?
Along the way, have you ever lost this beauty?
In a daze, Chen Xi thought of the Chu Dynasty, his hometown and those relatives and friends. Time flies, everything is changing, but this beauty cannot be lost...
"Let's go, I'll take you to try the dishes of Zuixian Restaurant. I heard that there are many great chefs in this restaurant." Soon, Chen Xi came back to his senses and waved to call Meng Wei and the others.
Left the courtyard.
Zuixian Tower is three thousand feet high and is known as "the city is filled with the fragrance of three thousand wines". The "Qingquan Niang" wine it brews is unique and famous all over the world.
The consumption is naturally ridiculously high, and ordinary people cannot afford it. However, these are nothing to Chen Xi. He took the young people directly to the highest floor of Zuixian Tower.
It was noon, and there were already many guests here. What surprised Chen Xi was that just as he had arranged the young people, he saw a group of girls walking in, and among them was Su Qingyan.
What a coincidence, I bumped into her twice in a row...
Chen Xi was about to stand up and say hello to Su Qingyan, but found that she seemed to have something on her mind, her beautiful eyebrows were furrowed, and she looked like she was lost in thought. She walked past him without even seeing him.
Only some of the girls saw him, and they were all slightly startled, and then left with cold expressions, as if they turned a blind eye.
Chen Xi laughed to himself and didn't bother to argue with them, and started to help Meng Wei and the others order their dishes.
