Zhongnanhai, Office No. 1.
The phone on the table rang and Number One picked it up.
"Chu Kuang Ren invited quite a few people, including Xiao Chen."
A voice came from the phone.
"Well, there's no need to keep an eye on him. In the capital... no one should dare to deal with Xiao Chen."
Number One thought for a moment and said.
"Yes, Chief."
Number One put down the phone, rubbed his temples, and said to himself, "Keep watching that kid. If he finds out and misunderstands, that will be bad."
"You think so highly of that boy?"
Suddenly, a voice came from a corner.
"right."
Number One glanced at him and nodded.
"He is the one I chose... I am optimistic about him."
"Hehe, will he agree?"
Following the voice, a somewhat hunched figure walked out from the corner.
He was dressed in a black robe, his hair was gray, and his old face was covered with wrinkles.
But if Xiao Chen were here, he would definitely be shocked and secretly exclaim, "This old guy is so strong."
Now, for Xiao Chen to feel this way, one must at least have reached the Great Perfection of Hua Jin!
Even ordinary great perfection of Hua Jin is not enough.
This old man is even stronger than Amos.
"Yes."
Number One looked at the old man and nodded.
,
"The grandson of the old fortune teller...it turns out that the old fortune teller had started planning this many years ago. I hope it works."
After the old man finished speaking, he hid in the corner again and could no longer be seen.
Number One seemed to have gotten used to having such a person around him. He stopped talking and just lowered his head to continue his work.
…
There are more and more people.
"Old Chu, didn't you say it was a gathering of friends? How come there are people I don't know?"
Xiao Chen asked Chu Kuangren.
"Alas, I originally thought it was a gathering of friends, but too many people approached me, hoping to attend tonight's party... To put it bluntly, they just wanted to meet you and get to know you."
Chu Kuangren was also somewhat helpless.
"Meet me and get to know me?"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
"Why do you want to know me?"
"Of course they want to build some friendship with you... If you were a nobody, they wouldn't come over, but it's different now. No one dares to ignore you! To put it bluntly, you alone are already as powerful as a first-rate force."
Madman Chu looked at Xiao Chen and said.
“What’s more, you have the Han family behind you.”
"All right."
Xiao Chen nodded. Now that they were here, what could he do? He couldn't just chase them away, right?
"Whether you're willing to meet them or not, you still have to meet them... In fact, compared to them meeting you, I think they want to find a way out for themselves... If their son or something offends you someday, you can let them go for the sake of your acquaintance."
Madman Chu said with a smile.
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. Is this even possible?
"Come on, I'll introduce you to each other. It will be good for you if you get to know each other."
Madman Chu said to Xiao Chen.
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded and followed Chu Kuangren to greet the guests.
On the other side, Long Jun looked at Han Youwei: "Old Han, I really envy you."
"It's no use being envious. It's your fault that you don't have a daughter."
Han Youwei said with a smile.
"Is the old man also very satisfied with Xiao Chen?"
Long Jun asked.
"Yes, very satisfied."
Han Youwei nodded.
"The old man just wrote a piece of calligraphy and gave it to this kid... a poem by Taizu."
Hearing this, Long Jun was a little surprised: "Grandpa is still writing now?"
"Um."
"Then I'll go to your house some other day and ask for one..."
"That's tough. Except for this guy, my eldest brother won't give him anything he wants. The last one was that guy."
Han Youwei smiled.
"Whether you give it or not, you have to try it."
Long Jun also smiled.
"What if I'm so handsome that I can get one?"
"Then you can try."
Han Youwei nodded.
After a round of greetings, Xiao Chen got to know most of the visitors. It was just as Chu Kuangren had said, they were all great figures in the capital.
Come to think of it, anyone who can speak to Chu Kuangren must not be an ordinary person.
"Brother Xiao, you are a dragon among men! I have always wanted to get to know you, but I never had the chance."
A fat man with a white face and no beard said to Xiao Chen with a smile.
"Haha, Mr. Xu, thank you for the compliment."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"My kid is about the same age as Mr. Xiao, but he is far behind in terms of his potential."
"Young man, you have to give him some time."
"Yeah, that's right. Someone like Mr. Xiao is rarely seen in a century."
The fat man praised it a few words and then left.
"This guy... don't get too close to him. He's a real ruthless guy, a smiling tiger."
Han Youwei came over and said to Xiao Chen indifferently.
"I understand, Uncle Han."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"The old man asked me to ask you, did you agree?"
Han Youwei asked in a low voice.
Xiao Chen was startled and shook his head: "No, Uncle Han, you don't know either?"
"I don't know. The old man didn't tell me. He said I would know later..."
Han Youwei smiled.
"You didn't agree, right? Wait for me to talk to the old man."
"Well, I'll think about it and agree sooner or later... I'll find a time to talk to the old man."
Xiao Chen said to Han Youwei.
"good."
Han Youwei nodded.
After a while, Chu Kuangren arranged the seats and everyone started to sit down one by one.
Xiao Chen naturally sat at the main table. He looked around and didn't see any young people...most of them were in their forties or fifties!
This made Xiao Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was too good, but that wasn't good either!
Being with so many middle-aged men, he also felt old.
As the organizer, Chu Kuangren said a few words and then looked at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen had no choice but to stand up and say a few polite words.
As soon as he finished speaking, applause broke out.
Especially the way they looked at him, it made me feel like... it's a pity that he is not my son.
This feeling made Xiao Chen very unhappy. Damn it, is the new generation in Beijing so bad? It can't be said that there is not even one talented person in such a big city, right?
"If you want to be the leader of the martial arts world, it would be beneficial to befriend them."
After drinking a glass of wine, Chu Kuangren whispered to Xiao Chen.
"Hmm? Why?"
Xiao Chen was stunned. How was he related to the leader of the martial arts world again?
"The families in the capital... In fact, not only the families in the capital, but also the families of all sizes across the country are more or less connected to the forces of the ancient martial arts world! One of the reasons why the court is wary of the ancient martial arts world is also because of this."
Madman Chu whispered.
"oh?"
Xiao Chen was a little surprised.
“No matter how much you cultivate, you are still a human being and you still need to eat, drink, defecate and urinate… There are too few truly secluded forces that live in deep mountains and forests and are self-sufficient nowadays.”
Madman Chu smiled.
“So, I have a connection with the secular world.”
"I see."
Xiao Chen nodded.
After a few drinks, Xiao Chen frowned slightly.
For some reason, he felt a little nervous, as if something was about to happen, and something bad.
"What's wrong?"
Madman Chu noticed Xiao Chen's abnormality and asked.
"nothing."
Xiao Chen shook his head but his eyes swept around. Was this bad feeling coming from his surroundings?
But after looking around, he didn't find anything dangerous.
It shouldn't be on site.
Moreover, this feeling is not a sense of crisis.
This made him even more flustered. What was going on?
"Come on, Brother Xiao, I'll toast you a glass."
Someone came over and said to Xiao Chen.
"Haha, okay."
Xiao Chen suppressed the bad feeling in his heart, smiled, picked up the cup, and drank it down.
Just as he put down the cup, his cell phone rang.
Hearing the ringing of the cell phone, his heart suddenly trembled. Could it be that the bad feeling came from this phone call?
He didn't care about the person in front of him, took out his cell phone, and scanned the screen - Su Xiaomeng.
Su Xiaomeng?
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and pressed the answer button.
"Xiao Meng..."
Xiao Chen had just said two words when he heard Su Xiaomeng crying from the other side: "Brother Chen, it's bad, my sister is missing."
"What?!"
Hearing Su Xiaomeng's words, Xiao Chen screamed, and even the hand holding the phone trembled a few times.
The people around were stunned to see Xiao Chen lose his composure like this, and then they pricked up their ears to listen carefully to what happened... What could make Xiao Chen lose his composure like this?
It shouldn’t be a small matter!
Otherwise, he would never lose his composure in such an occasion!
As the person who knew Xiao Chen best at the scene, Chu Kuangren frowned. What happened?
Little Meng?
Is it Su Xiaomeng?
Something happened in Longhai?
"My sister is missing, her phone is turned off... I went to the company to look for her, they said she didn't go to the company all day, I also went back to the Su family, no one has seen her... Brother Chen, do you think something has happened to my sister?"
Su Xiaomeng said while crying.
"Xiao Meng, don't be anxious, don't cry... Tell me what happened. When did your sister... find out she couldn't be found or contacted?"
Xiao Chen tried to calm himself down and asked in a deep voice.
"After I left home in the morning, I went to Haifu Mountain to see my brother... I stayed in Haifu Mountain for the whole morning and came back at noon! During this period, there was nothing unusual. When it was evening, my sister hadn't come back yet, so I called her... I called her, but her phone was turned off. I thought her phone was out of battery, so I called the company and they said my sister hadn't been there all day..."
Listening to Su Xiaomeng's words, Xiao Chen frowned. Has he been missing for a day?
"What about Qingcheng Company? Have you asked?"
Xiao Chen thought of something and asked.
"Yeah, I've asked, and they said they haven't been there either... I asked the secretary and assistant around my sister, and they didn't contact my sister today! The Su family, the company, I looked for my sister everywhere she could go, but I couldn't find her."
Su Xiaomeng was very scared, afraid that something might happen to her sister.
"Xiao Meng, don't worry, I'll be back soon!"
Xiao Chen said in a deep voice.
"Just wait for me at home, don't worry, your sister will be fine!"
"Really? I'm so scared..."
"Really, I promise, your sister will be fine. I'll be back soon, wait for me!"
Xiao Chen comforted Su Xiaomeng, but his heart was in a mess.
