"Are you sure your father's name is Li Boyang?" Li Xiu looked at Li Ming'er and asked with a strange expression.
"That's probably it. I heard it accidentally. I asked them before, but they refused to tell me." Li Ming'er said.
Li Xiu looked at Li Ming'er with a complicated expression. He had only learned the name Li Boyang from Jiang Linglan not long ago, and it should undoubtedly be the president himself.
If the possibility of having the same name and surname is ruled out, then Li Ming'er is probably the president's daughter.
"Can humans and demons have offspring?" Li Xiu muttered to himself.
If it were someone else, Li Xiu thought it would be impossible. There was a high chance that he had the same name.
But Li Xiu was not sure about the president.
He still remembered that when he was still in Hongsha City, the president took him to see the collection of human skins. At that time, Li Xiu felt that the president did not look like a human being.
Moreover, the names of Changshengtian and Changsheng Island are so similar, no one can tell whether there is any connection between them.
Of course, Li Xiu could only think about these words by himself and did not dare to tell Li Ming'er. If Li Ming'er knew about it and really went to the president, who knows what would happen.
"Let's wait until the matter is clarified." Li Xiu was also a little curious about this matter. If he really wanted to find out, I'm afraid it wouldn't be that easy.
"Ming'er, have you seen your father's portrait or anything else?" Li Xiu looked at Li Ming'er and said.
Upon closer inspection, Li Ming'er and Li Qingyi are indeed somewhat similar. They both have oval faces, but Li Qingyi's facial features are more three-dimensional and look more heroic.
Li Ming'er's facial features are more charming and very feminine.
"No." Li Ming'er looked at Li Xiu with some confusion and asked, "Brother Xiu, why are you asking about my father?"
"It's nothing, I'm just curious." Li Xiu couldn't say much now.
Li Ming'er wanted to help Li Xiu take care of the little girl, but the little girl hugged Li Xiu and wouldn't let go, and no one could take her away. Li Xiu had to leave the little girl behind until she fell asleep.
After Li Ming'er left, Li Xiu looked at the little girl and murmured to himself: "I don't know when we will be able to figure out her origin. Let's give her a name first. What should we call her?"
"She came from the Jade Gate. It seems a little inappropriate to call her Xiaocui. She has the same name as the Jade Demon King..." Li Xiu thought about what name he should give.
Li Xiu looked at the well-behaved little girl, who was really cute with her pink face. He felt that it would be a bit harsh to name her after jade or something like that.
"Although I am not your father, since you and I have met, it can be regarded as fate. It is not appropriate for you to take my last name, so let's make your name from half of my name." Li Xiu.
He reached out and dipped his hand into some tea, and while talking, he wrote on the table: "The character "李" is taken from the character "子", and the character "李" is taken from the character "single person", and together they become the character "Zai". It is not nice to call "Xiao Zai", it sounds like "Zai Zi".
Then let’s call him Zai Zai.”
"Zai Zai, what do you think of this name?" Li Xiu said, squeezing the little girl's chubby little hand.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah!" the little girl said twice, but I don't know if she understood it.
"You like her very much, don't you? Then I'll call you Zaizai." Li Xiu hugged Zaizai happily and kissed her little pink face.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah!" Zaizai pressed Li Xiu's face with his little hand, obviously resisting.
Li Xiu didn't care so much. Anyway, he thought the name was quite suitable.
"Kaka...Kaka..." Another childish voice came from the side. Li Xiu turned around and saw the little blue demon spirit tugging on Li Xiu's trousers on the ground, looking expectantly.
She looked at him as if she also wanted a name.
"Do you want a name too? Okay, then I'll give you a name too." Li Xiu picked up the little blue demon spirit and put it on the table, looked at it for a while and said, "You are good at cold-attributed magic light.
Let’s call her Xiaoshuang.”
"Kaka...Kaka..." Xiaoshuang seemed to understand and was very satisfied.
"This little guy is so easy to fool." Li Xiu touched Xiaoshuang's fluffy little head and sighed to himself.
Xiaoshuang comes from the Gate of Green Field. Coincidentally, the gem needed to open the Gate of Green Field is also jade.
The Southern Cross Federation itself is the origin of jade, and there are a lot of jade in Changshengtian. However, the quality of jade varies greatly, and the price also varies. Li Xiu is rich now, so it is not a big deal to buy some high-grade jade to feed Xiao Shuangdao.
thing.
To be on the safe side, Li Xiu took a drop of Xiaoshuang's blood and dropped it on the blood seal stone. From now on, he dropped a drop of it every day to prevent this guy from getting into trouble when he grew up. After all, his parents were god-level demons, and there was no restriction at all.
If you rebel, you'll be in trouble.
Originally, Li Xiu wanted to wait for Zaizai to fall asleep and find someone to take her away, but even if this guy fell asleep, his little hands kept grabbing Li Xiu. If Li Xiu made the slightest movement, she would wake up directly and couldn't get rid of her at all.
"Forget it, I don't plan to go to the trial site for the time being anyway. Let's recuperate for two days." Li Xiu slept one night and went to find the scammer early the next morning and asked him how his enlightenment was recently.
Have you figured it out?
If the old man hasn't figured it out yet, then he can only find someone else to guard the Sword Soul Gate on his behalf. He doesn't want to go there anymore.
"I haven't thought too clearly yet." Lao Qian said, "But I don't think I need to think about it anymore. Let me go back and guard the sword soul gate. There are some things that I can't figure out just by thinking about them. I need more training."
.”
"That's fine." Li Xiu nodded. When Lao Qian was about to leave, Li Xiu stopped him again: "Lao Qian, if you encounter something strange in the Land of Sword Soul, tell me my name.
Maybe it will be of some use."
"A weird thing? What weird thing? Are you talking about rain?" The old man remembered that Li Xiu had asked him about rain in the Land of Sword Soul before.
"It's more or less the same. There's no guarantee that it will be useful. It might not be useful at all. If there is really no other way, you can give it a try." Li Xiu said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll note it down." The old man said and went out to the Sword Soul Gate.
Li Xiu carried Zai Zai out and planned to go to the gem market.
He himself is stuck at the threshold of being promoted to become a spirit, and needs a lot of energy to help him cast a spirit. Now he does not dare to enter the trial place casually, and can only think of ways to deal with external objects such as magic cores.
Recently he seems to be prone to getting into trouble when he goes to these places of trial.
However, Li Xiu felt that this had nothing to do with his luck. It should be that there were more and more unusual movements in the Kingdom of Demon Spirits, and many demon spirits seemed to be anxious to rush out of the trial gate.
Just like Xiaoshuang's parents, when their children were so young, they let them rush out of the trial gate, even at the expense of some of their offspring, which shows their urgency.
So there's nothing going on recently, and Li Xiu doesn't want to wander around in the trial grounds.
Fortunately, he has made a lot of money recently, so there is no problem in buying some magic cores.
Who would have thought that not long after I had gone out, I saw Han Minghui walking towards me.
"Director Li." Han Minghui directly blocked Li Xiu's path, as if she came specifically to block him.
"What advice does Vice President Han have?" Li Xiu asked knowingly.
"This is the bill for the banquet. Director Li said before that he wanted to treat us. Please settle the bill." Han Minghui took out a thick stack of bills and handed it to Li Xiu.
Tens of thousands of people are eating, which is not a small amount. She thought Li Xiu was dead before and she took out the money first. Now that Li Xiu is not dead, and she even said in public that he was treating guests and that he had lost the favor, this
Naturally, he should provide the money.
Li Xiu took the bill, looked at it, and then extended his hand to Han Minghui.
"That's all. No more. Director Li, you just need to pay for the banquet. The rest of the expenses will be paid by the party." Han Minghui thought Li Xiu wanted other bills.
"Vice President Han, look at what you said, you only gave me the bill, but you haven't given me the money yet." Li Xiu said with a smile.
"What money?" Han Minghui couldn't help but be stunned.
"Vice President Han, is this not okay with you? I should pay for the banquet. After all, those people are here to attend my memorial service. But since I paid for the banquet, then they gave it in vain.
Of course the money should be collected by me as the client." Li Xiu said.
"Where is the free gift? This is a memorial service held for you in the meeting, and it is not a private funeral. Where does the free gift come from?" Han Minghui felt something was not good.
"Oh, I didn't take the free money, so how can I pay for these banquets?" Li Xiu looked at Han Minghui and asked.
"How do I know what money Director Li paid for these banquets? Director Li said you wanted to treat them yourself." Han Minghui said with a sullen face.
"Yes, they came to my funeral, of course I had to treat them to a banquet. But according to etiquette, you must give a white envelope to attend the funeral. I have to use the white envelope to pay for the banquet, so I also invited Vice President Han
Please take the money from the white envelope and give it to me." Li Xiu said politely.
"But we didn't confiscate the free money." Han Minghui said biting her lip.
"Then I'm sorry. I didn't charge a penny, so how can I have money to pay for the banquet?" Li Xiu said with a smile: "Since my memorial service was organized by Vice President Han, you also informed me, right?
?Then please, Vice President Han, please go and collect the money in the white envelope. You can use it directly to pay for the banquet. If there is more, please inform me and I will pick it up myself. I won’t bother you to send it over.
.”
"You..." Han Minghui was so angry that she almost cursed.
"Vice President Han, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." Li Xiu said and walked around Han Minghui.
"Director Li, this money comes from the public account, and you can't rely on it." Han Minghui looked at Li Xiu's back and said.
"What do I have to blame? Just bring me the free money and I'll give it to you right away." Li Xiu said and left without looking back.
"Asshole!" Han Minghui's teeth itched with hatred.
She said that the money went to the public account, but that was not the case. It was advanced by the Han family.
The reason why this happened is because the memorial service did not originally include a meal, and everyone went back to their homes after the memorial service.
Han Minghui paid for the banquet herself. She originally wanted to use this opportunity to show off the Han family and let the people in Changsheng City know who is the first family in Changsheng City. At the same time, she also wanted to win over some useful people.
His talents have left a good impression on most people, especially those in the technician team, letting them know that the Han family values love and justice. Even people like Li Xiu who have not dealt with the Han family in the past, the Han family can
The big belly is tolerant and prepares me to take over the technician team in the future.
Of course, Han Minghui will not really let the Han family pay for this money. She will still have to find a way to transfer it to the public account of the meeting in the future.
Who would have thought that Li Xiu was not dead, and her dream of taking over the technician team was shattered. Now the favor of taking over the banquet fell on Li Xiu again. She had nothing left, and she still had to pay for Li Xiu. Han Minghui
My scalp was numb with anger.
Li Xiu didn't care about that and went directly to the gem market with Zai Zai in his arms.
Xiaoshuang was hiding in Li Xiu's backpack. From time to time, her little head would emerge from the opening of the backpack and look outside, full of curiosity about everything.
Along the way, many people greeted Li Xiu warmly. Now Li Xiu's reputation is so high that except for a few old elders and chief executives in Changsheng City, he can be said to be the best among the younger generation.
There's no comparison at all.
This is partly due to Han Minghui, who had previously announced that she wanted to make Li Xiu a hero.
Anyway, Li Xiu had no relatives and no one could inherit his legacy. So Han Minghui spared no effort to publicize Li Xiu's glorious deeds. Who would have thought that Li Xiu was not dead?
"General Manager Li, just pick whatever you like and I'll give you a 20% discount... no... 30% off..." Many shop owners greeted Li Xiu very warmly.
Li Xiu smiled and politely refused one by one. What he needed this time was magic cores, and the level, quality and quantity of the magic cores he needed had to meet certain requirements, which were not something ordinary shops could provide.
Li Xiu came all the way to Baoguang Pavilion. When he entered, he didn't see Lao Immortal. Only two clerks came to greet him.
"Isn't the boss here?" Li Xiu asked casually.
"The boss is greeting the guests in the VIP room on the second floor. Mr. Li, please go to the private room to rest for a while. I will inform the boss right away." A beautiful clerk said cautiously.
"Tell the boss that I have a big deal to discuss with him and ask him to come over as soon as possible." Li Xiu said as he followed the clerk to the second floor.
"Why is the business so big?" came a familiar voice from Li Xiu from the VIP room on the second floor.
"President!" Li Xiu recognized who the voice was and immediately stopped, standing on the stairs neither going up nor down.
"Don't you have big business to discuss? The president is here with me, come over and talk." The president's voice came from the VIP room again.
Li Xiu had no choice but to carry Zai Zai up to the second floor.
He was not afraid of offending the president, but he was worried that the president would see that there was something wrong with Zai Zai.
But thinking about it carefully just now, the president must have known about Wan Chaochun taking away Zai Zai before, so there should be no problem.
Li Xiu walked to the door and knocked on the closed door.
"The door is not closed, come in by yourself." The president's voice came again.
Li Xiu pushed the door open and walked in. He saw Lao Wusheng and Mo Wuya there, sitting on the left and right next to the president.
"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come here." Li Xiu sighed inwardly.
"The president is right here. How big a business you have, let the president know." The president looked at Li Xiu with a half-smile and said.
"I don't have much business, I just want to buy some magic cores." Li Xiu said.
"Why are you calling it a big deal if you buy a few magic cores? Do you want to buy a god-level magic core? If you want to buy a god-level magic core, I have them here. How many do you want? Please give me a price." The president looked at Li Xiu.
Said with a smile.
"The president is joking, how can I have the money to buy a god-level magic core?" Li Xiu was a little helpless. He really wanted to buy a god-level magic core, but that thing has a price but no market at all. Even if it was available, he wouldn't have it.
I don’t have the financial strength to purchase it.
"Since you know you have no money, why don't you make money?" The president changed the subject and continued.
Li Xiu thought to himself: "Do you think I don't want to make money? A dog doesn't want to make money. I have no choice. I just contacted the Chu family and got the first pot of gold, but the money is not always available, and I have to wait.
Let’s sell the magic costumes we made.”
Of course, Li Xiu could not say this to the president, so he could only sigh: "I am just a small general manager. I need people but no one, and I have no connections. Where can I make money?"
"Jing Li, Lao Qian, Jiu Xiaoyun, and the young generation of Changshengtian have all been poached by you. Lao Ba is your fourth sworn brother, Wan Chaochun is your sworn eldest sister, and so is that boy from the Chu family.
Your sworn brother owns the Magic Equipment Research Institute and secretly sells the technology of the institute. I think you not only have a lot of people, but also have many connections." The president said coldly.
"Shut up first." The president didn't give Li Xiu a chance to speak. He stared at him and said sullenly: "Forget it, you dare to drag my daughter into the water. Do you think you are immortal now?
Heaven’s heroes can do whatever they want?”
"President, I'm wrong. Miss Qingyi joined the technician team because she took pity on me and wanted to help me. I really didn't let her do anything dangerous." Li Xiu said quickly.
"I'm talking about Ming'er." The president said coldly.
Li Xiu was slightly startled. He didn't expect to know the answer so quickly. Li Ming'er turned out to be the president's daughter.
"This... President... I really didn't know that Li Ming'er was your daughter... Don't worry... I have always regarded Ming'er as a distinguished guest, and I guarantee that she has never been wronged by me..." Li Xiu
He said quickly.
"If you had made her suffer, do you think you could still live until now?" The president snorted coldly: "Let her continue to live in your No. 7 courtyard from now on. She is not allowed to know about my affairs, but you
I can't let her suffer any grievance at all. If she feels any grievance at all, or if she finds out about me, I will chop off your limbs first, and then send you to the Temple of Heaven to light up the sky lanterns."
"President, please don't worry." Li Xiu was slightly depressed. This was a thankless job.
After the president said this, his expression suddenly changed, like a face change in a Sichuan opera. He looked at Li Xiu with a smile and said, "You want to make money, right? Then I will show you a way to ensure that you can make a lot of money."
Li Xiu didn't believe the president's lies at all. If there was such a good thing, how could he come to find him? There must be something going on here.
