Chapter 404 A little itchy
The four of them ate and drank, talking and laughing. An hour passed, and there was not much left on the table.
Seeing that the two of them had to chat for a while, Liuli's mother gave her a wink at her and they began to clean up the dishes.
"You two can have some more drinks. Anyway, there are fish, and it's good to have a chat for a while, but be careful, you'll get drunk when someone's children come for the first time."
Listening to Liuli's mother's words, Chen Xiao hurriedly put down his chopsticks, stood up and said, "I'll help clean up my aunt."
"No, Xiaoli and I will come here for this little thing. You can talk to your uncle for a while and sit down."
Chen Xiao nodded and then sat down again. He glanced at Liuli's father, picked up the cup and said, "Uncle, I'll give you another cup."
"Oh, the young man knows how to take the initiative, haha."
As they said that, the two of them smiled and then drank another one.
After drinking, Liuli's father put down his cup and suddenly asked, "I heard that your Longmen Group is going to build two new Longmen buildings, and the site is located in two desolate areas. Is this the case?"
Chen Xiao nodded and said, "Yes, uncle, one is built in Puhai District and the other is built in Pushun District. The two buildings are started to operate at the same time, and the Tianqi Zheng family is responsible for these two projects."
Liuli's father nodded and said, "This time you chose the location, and you chose two areas that are not economically prosperous. Are you not worried about business benefits?"
Chen Xiao paused and replied, "This is something I had thought of, but the economies of the two places were too backward. I have been there and knew the lives of the people there, so I built the Longmen Building there, hoping to drive economic development and let the people there live a slightly better life."
After pondering for a while, Liuli's father nodded and said, "It would be nice if you could have this intention. Alas, young people and businessmen nowadays are all profit-oriented. It is really good to bet on your own economic benefits like you and help others. Well, I hope other industries can have this intention, so let's go with you."
Chen Xiao nodded gently and said, "I have already explained the Tianqi, the Chen family, and my family. I hope that after we let go of our business, we can play some role."
"This is not a matter of one or two days. Don't be impatient, keep calm and take your time. As long as you try your best, no matter what the result is, it will be good. Come on, do another one."
As he said that, Liuli's father raised the cup again. Chen Xiao also raised the cup and touched him one, and the two of them drank another one.
After drinking, putting down the cup, Liuli's father said again: "I heard that you want to have a public duel with Lin Zheng, is there any such thing?"
Chen Xiao nodded and said, "This is something. Because I want to conquer the Lin family, this is Lin Zheng's last condition."
"Well, once the Lin family is conquered, the strength of Longmen will leap again. At that time, whether it is land trade or sea trade, it will make a lot of progress."
As he said that, Liuli's father looked up at Chen Xiao and said, "Chen Xiao, uncle is a straightforward person and doesn't like to beat around the bush. I will ask directly if there is something."
"As long as you have something to say, Chen Xiao knew everything."
"Well, that's it. After we meet today, I can see that you have practiced martial arts to the level of a top master. If I remember correctly, Lin Zheng should still be a great master, right? He challenged you, isn't this a humiliation?"
Listening to Liuli’s father asking about this, Chen Xiao smiled and said, “Uncle is indeed a master. That’s right. Lin Zheng’s condition is to use a golden needle to seal the acupoints and leave only the same skills as him to duel with him.”
Liuli's father suddenly realized and said, "So that's the case, but since you have accepted his conditions, it seems that you are 70% or 80% sure?"
Chen Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "Lin Zheng is over fifty years old and has fought all directions in his life. Although his combat awareness is not as good as mine, his martial arts experience is far beyond my ability. To be honest, I am only 60% sure in my heart."
Liuli's father nodded and said, "Lin Zheng's iron shirt is so hard that it is annoying. With the power of Shaolin Cinnabar Palm, it is really difficult to find an opponent among his class. However, since you have the Prajna Heart Sutra and Prajna Zen Palm, you can still fight him."
"But remember, Lin Zheng is proud of his strong defense and the cinnabar palm is extremely harmful. When he faces an enemy, he will not consider too much. He will fight hard. If you want to defeat him, you can seek breakthroughs in technical terms and catch him off guard."
Chen Xiao nodded quickly and said, "I have recorded my uncle's words. Thank you for your teaching."
Liuli's father shook his head and said, "It's not a word of teaching. I've dealt with him before. I've learned some of his fighting styles and told you to you as a suggestion. But at that time, you have to decide how to deal with it based on the situation on the scene. Alas, martial arts is a matter of adaptability. As long as you have strong adaptability and a strong opponent, you can find a way to deal with him."
"Yes, uncle said, come on, uncle, I'll pay you another respect."
As they said that, the two of them had another drink.
Seeing the two of them talking and drinking, Liuli came over from the living room, frowned and said, "You two are really drunk and don't go home, no need, you're so acquainted with each other when they met for the first time?"
"Hey, it's said that girls are not a big shot. After only a few drinks, she was worried that I'll get you, haha."
Chen Xiao chuckled and said, "It's okay, I just drank a little, not much."
"Are you planning to stay today? Or do you want my parents to see you handsome after drinking?"
Chen Xiao smiled awkwardly and said, "I won't count it when I first came to the door, don't worry."
"Then you agree, this is my home. If you drink it a little later, you can't help but feel itchy. Tell me, I'll open the door for you, just go out and smash your own car."
Listening to Liuli's words, Chen Xiao and her father both laughed. Liuli looked at the wine glasses of the two and said, "Okay, let's forget it after drinking this bottle, don't open it again."
"Okay, okay, your child has become so verbose. Go and see if the dog is full. If he is full, he will go away."
"Does the dog have time to eat?"
“…”
On the other side, Chen Xiao’s home.
His father Chen Nanzong and Shen Xiaoye were having dinner when he suddenly asked, "Yezi, who did your brother visit today?"
Chen Xiaoye, who was eating, nodded and said, "I heard that he was going to my sister-in-law's house. Let's see my future father-in-law and mother-in-law."
When Chen Nanzong heard this, his eyes lit up and said, "Oh, that's right. Alas, Xiaoer has been in love for a while, and it's time to visit his elders. After all, he is not young anymore, and it's time to talk about marriage."
"Can you be so fast? Dad, I guess you have to wait there. After all, what does my sister-in-law do in her family? I don't know, you should know."
Chen Nanzong nodded with a chuckle and said, "Yes, but the girl is not young anymore. I guess his parents have the same idea as me."
As he said that, Chen Nanzong didn't know what he thought of again, and suddenly chuckled and murmured: "But Xiao'er's father-in-law is not an easy father-in-law to deal with, haha..."
On the other hand, Chen Xiao had already finished drinking the whole bottle of wine with Liuli's father. The two of them ate a few more mouthfuls of fish and told some of the past.
"When I was young, Xiaoli was not so smart. Her mother and I were worried about whether she would be bullied at school. Fortunately, I later had a... brother who helped her stand up and did a lot of things, and we were very grateful to him."
Listening to Liuli's father's words, Chen Xiao was suddenly stunned and thought to himself: Brother? Is this what Xiaoli hasn't told me?
"However, the life of that person was in a miserable state. Something happened, and our two families gradually broke off contact. Now, with Xiaoli having you, we can feel at ease. Chen Xiao, I won't say much about anything else. I don't object to your relationship with Xiaoli, nor do I care about what you used to do, what you do now, and what you want to do in the future. I just need to assure me that, under any circumstances, you must love her, protect her, and take care of her. Can you agree to me?"
Chen Xiao said without thinking: "Uncle, please don't worry, aunt and I will love Xiaoli well every day I live, and I will give her a happy life."
Liuli's father nodded and said, "Okay, you can continue dating. As for the future, you can just take care of it yourself, just don't give us some sudden attacks."
Listening to Liuli's father's words, Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment and understood what he meant, then smiled awkwardly and blushed a little.
"It's OK, I've been drinking it almost the same. I won't feed you anymore, so you won't dare to come in the future, haha."
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Uncle has so many people, I feel ashamed of myself, but if I am happy, I will definitely accompany you to have fun."
"I don't dare. If you have fun, our house will be demolished."
Liuli walked over, looked at Chen Xiao, and said, "Can you do this like this? Why don't you go to my house to rest?"
"Yes, if you drink too high, go to bed for a while. Don't be embarrassed, it's okay."
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Uncle, I have something to deal with today. I may have to leave first, sorry."
Listening to Chen Xiao's words, Liuli hurriedly asked, "Don't you rest on weekends? Are you so anxious?"
"I'm not a teacher, so there's no weekend. Uncle, I'll come back next time. I'll be here to enjoy you when the time comes."
"If you have something to do, go and go. Young people, take advantage of their age and work hard to work hard. Only when they are old can they really enjoy their happiness."
Chen Xiao nodded, looked at Liuli's confused look, and hurriedly grabbed her and said, "It's time to leave, let me see."
Listening to Chen Xiao's words, Liuli looked helpless and had to agree. Chen Xiao said to Liuli's mother again and then went out with her.
After leaving the house, Liuli was still puzzled and grabbed Chen Xiao and asked, "What urgent matters do you have today? Do you have to leave so anxiously?"
Chen Xiao said helplessly: "Xiaoli, if you don't leave, your parents should be knocking me away."
"What's the meaning?"
"I'm drinking a little too much, I'm almost itchy!"
