Chapter 26: Truth will come to light
He Qing followed Duan Chenhui into the elevator and went up to the top floor restaurant. He looked around and found that there were almost always couples here. This should be a restaurant for couples. His uncle really had good intentions.
Duan Chenhui's expression did not change. He took him to a seat and picked up the menu: "What do you want to eat?"
"Like usual." He Qing added, "a little lighter."
Duan Chenhui smiled as he ordered the food and looked at him: "You usually eat so little, is this really okay?"
"I've always eaten so little." He Qing smiled. He could have not eaten, or been kept in a fish tank like a lantern flower.
"If it were anyone else like you, they would almost become gods." Duan Chenhui joked.
He Qing almost thought Duan Chenhui knew something: "I use less energy."
Duan Chenhui smiled meaningfully and didn't ask him any more questions.
He Qing knocked the wooden fish silently and said, "General, your smile has been a little scary lately."
The food came soon. He Qing finished his salad and then ate some pastries while watching Duan Chenhui cut the steak. Duan Chenhui cut the steak very evenly, with each piece being of moderate size, and his knife skills were deft.
He Qing thought of the sword. Duan Chenhui had been possessed by another spirit before, so he temporarily took the sword. After returning, he would refine the sword again and return it to Duan Chenhui.
Halfway through the meal, Duan Chenhui suddenly asked, "It doesn't matter if you don't go back to the main house, about what my uncle said."
He Qing put down his fork, thought for a moment and said, "Where is the main house? I want to go see it too." If he didn't go back with Duan Chenhui during the New Year, he would definitely be on the headlines the next day.
"Don't force it." Duan Chenhui looked up at him.
He Qing looked at him and asked tentatively: "Then does the general want me to go?"
Duan Chenhui paused for a moment and put down his fork: "I remember you said you were afraid of that kind of scene, so you decide for yourself."
He Qing paused and nodded slightly: "Since it is an important day, we must go back. Where is the main house?" He really didn't know.
Duan Chenhui smiled when he heard this: "In the Arctic."
"Huh?" He Qing thought it was near here, but it turned out to be in the Arctic! "Why do you live in such an icy place?"
Duan Chenhui took a sip of tea and said, "Because the entire North Pole belongs to the Duan family."
"So that's how it is." He Qing understood. It meant that it was the Duan family's base camp! They were all their own people, so it must be heavily guarded.
He Qing looked at him again and found that he was indeed being kept by a local rich man.
Duan Chenhui saw his shocked expression and explained with a smile: "Don't worry, it's like spring in the villa all year round."
"That's good." He Qing picked up the teacup and took a sip. He was just a little shocked. So the North Pole was also a military fortress, responsible for the defense of the capital planet.
After finishing his meal, He Qing immediately opened the Star Network to check the North Pole and saw a lot of strange information. For example, some people thought that the Duan family was too powerful and seemed to want to usurp the throne.
He Qing silently blasted this comment. If the Duan family really had this idea, they would have done it long ago.
In the following days, he continued to go to the Star Network to challenge others. Because he climbed up very quickly, he attracted the attention of some people.
That day, Zhang Yi showed him the terminal: "It seems that the truth cannot be hidden. Does the general know?"
He Qing looked down and saw someone posting something on the campus network.
#A mysterious dark horse appears on the battle power rankings! His true identity is in doubt! #
[Has everyone noticed? 666 climbs very fast. Which freshman wants to surprise us? ]
[I have screened, but I can't find out who it is. ]
[It's strange, I always feel like there's no one who corresponds. ]
After reading it, He Qing smiled and said, "Fortunately, I am anonymous."
“It’s going to be exposed sooner or later anyway.” Chu Yan criticized him.
Shi Lei also laughed: "Student He Qing, now is the time to be lenient if you confess and be strict if you resist!"
Zhang Yi nodded: "Why don't you confess first?"
He Qing thought of Duan Chenhui's hobby that was rumored on the Internet, and shook his head: "Let me think about it again, and as long as you win, you don't need me as a backup." Although he seemed to be almost exposed, Amitabha.
Zhang Yi said, as if he was enjoying a good show: "I think the general should be suspicious of you."
He Qing sighed and said, "Let's finish today's goal first."
"Come on!" Shi Lei patted his shoulder.
The others looked at him dimly: "You actually lost yesterday."
"..." Shi Lei said weakly, "I will work hard today!"

After defeating several more opponents, He Qing returned home at night and saw Duan Chenhui directing the robot to unpack the package. He walked over and subconsciously asked, "What is it?"
"Clothes." Duan Chenhui took out a piece of clothing. "It's still very cold in the Arctic. You should wear something thicker when you go out to play. Come on, try it on."
He Qing took the coat and touched it. The collar was made of soft white fur. He put it on and showed it to Duan Chenhui.
Duan Chenhui looked at him. He Qing looked like a rich young man from ancient times when he put on his coat, but He Qing was indeed born into a noble family.
He Qing touched his collar: "What? Doesn't it fit?" He really had never worn this kind of clothes.
"It suits you." Duan Chenhui walked over, pulled out his braid and put it in front, looked at it and put it back, "It still looks good this way."
He Qing touched his hair and said with a smile: "I wanted to shave it off, but unfortunately no one shaved it for me."
Duan Chenhui's forehead jumped: "Shave it all?"
"Like a bald head." He Qing's eyes lit up and he compared his head, "I wanted to shave it a long time ago."
Duan Chenhui's eyes twitched again. He could not imagine that horrible scene, so he persuaded him: "I think long hair looks better. Bald heads are not popular in the interstellar world."
"That's right." He Qing shook his head and sighed. Besides, he has returned to secular life and is married. Let's talk about it after he gets divorced.
Duan Chenhui felt a little headache. Seeing He Qing's regret, he quickly changed the subject: "We will go there in about a week. Go pack your luggage and put everything you want to take into your space ring."
"Okay." He Qing took off his coat, "Then I'll go upstairs and take a look."
Duan Chenhui handed the coat to the robot: "Take them all to dry cleaning."
"Yes, master." The robot servant began to work diligently.
Duan Chenhui sat on the sofa, thinking of He Qing's words about shaving his head and getting a headache again. What kind of aesthetic is this? He really didn't understand.
At this moment, information suddenly came in.
Duan Chenhui opened it and saw General Sun and his men.
General Sun: [Have you heard that a dark horse has appeared on campus recently? ]
Duan Chenhui didn't pay attention: [What dark horse? ]
Dean: [There is a person who challenged a higher level player like you did back then, and now he has killed 10,000 people. ]
Duan Chenhui's eyes moved slightly: [Who is it? ]
Dr. Qin: [I just said he would be interested, haha.]
Qiao Yi, who knows the truth: [It really is...]
The dean pondered: [It’s a pity that even I don’t know who he is. He participated anonymously, probably wanting to give everyone a big surprise.]
Qiao Yi: [I don’t know whether it’s a surprise or a shock. ]
Duan Chenhui's eyebrows twitched for unknown reasons. He pressed his forehead and said, "It should be a freshman. Who do you think it could be?"
Dr. Qin: [Not sure, but he probably came for a friendly match. We will know who he is sooner or later.]
Duan Chenhui looked up at the second floor, removed the light screen and went upstairs. When he passed by He Qing's door, he heard the sound of knocking wooden fish again.
Duan Chenhui paused for a moment, walked back to his room, and saw the stack of Heart Sutras on the table. He walked over and picked up a page. This Heart Sutra looked like a mysterious secret book.
Duan Chenhui suddenly smiled and put it down, but he couldn't understand it.
