Xu Jingkong looked at the two of them with a smile, as if there was a flash of light in his eyes. After looking at it, he thoughtfully said: "It turns out that the two of them want to help the villagers of the fishing village outside Dongping City. They are really chivalrous."
Yu Shiqi and Wei Qiutong looked at each other, and then replied to Xu Jingkong: "Chen Jingxuan said that Mr. Xu can understand people's hearts, but it is true."
"Jing Xuan probably said more than that to you, right?" Xu Jingkong smiled.
Yu Shiqi did not respond, and he thought that even if he didn't say Xu Jingkong, he would know the answer.
Under Xu Jingkong's stare, he felt a hint of chill slipping across his back. It was thought that he had a premonition of mind reading, and he had felt this way just now.
Xu Jingkong, who was opposite, looked slightly surprised and asked in surprise: "Young Master Yu seems to be able to detect the opportunity for me to use mind reading?"
"I have a little bit of intuitive premonition." Yu Shiqi replied with a serious expression, "Don't Mr. Xu feel that it's too offensive to read other people's thoughts casually?"
Xu Jingkong smiled embarrassedly: "Sorry, sorry, since I practiced this magical skill, I have been unable to help myself... I can't help myself."
After hearing this, Wei Qiutong said in surprise: "This is achieved through cultivation? I thought it was an innate talent."
"It is indeed a acquired cultivation." Xu Jingkong nodded and replied.
"Can sir teach me?" Wei Qiutong smiled slightly and tentatively tentatively.
"I'm afraid this is not easy, because I learned it by chance." Xu Jingkong sighed regretfully, "Jingxuan once wanted to learn it, but I don't know how to teach it."
Wei Qiutong had just asked casually, but she didn't really expect Xu Jingkong to teach her. At this time, both sides had passed the politeness. She thought that she and Yu Shiqi should leave: "That's a pity. Since Boss Chen is not here, we will leave. Mr. Xu, there will be a date in the future."
She said as she touched Yu Shiqi with her hand. After the latter understood it, she also said goodbye to Xu Jingkong.
"What should I do about those two?" Xu Jingkong asked with concern.
"Maybe I can wait until Boss Chen comes back..."
"Jingxuan has gone out to sea and should not be able to come back in less than half a month." Xu Jingkong pursed his lips and smiled, then said like this: "If you don't dislike me, I'm happy to help you."
Yu Shiqi and Wei Qiutong looked at each other in surprise, but they didn't expect Xu Jingkong to take the initiative to ask for helping them.
"What should I do?" Wei Qiutong asked Yu Shiqi for his opinion with his eyes.
Yu Shiqi did not make a sound, but used a slight shaking of his head to express his objection.
Although Xu Jingkong did not show any malice to them as far as the current contact is concerned, the fact that this person's mind reading skills has been confirmed, which shows that Chen Jingxuan did not deceive them. The mind reading skills are already quite strange and difficult to prevent, not to mention the mind control skills that can capture people's hearts. It is always difficult for them to feel at ease with such a strange man who stays by their side.
As Yu Shiqi was thinking this, he suddenly felt a chill coming from behind. He looked at Xu Jingkong opposite him with a premonition, and he looked depressed when he saw the other party.
"Mr. Xu, you have used mind reading skills to me again." Yu Shiqi's tone was blamed, "You put yourself in your shoes and think about it. If we both can know what you are thinking at any time, would you still dare to stay with us with confidence?"
Xu Jingkong lowered his head awkwardly and quickly explained: "The habits I have developed over the years are difficult to change for a while, and I am really sorry for you. In fact, I just don't want to be deceived, so when I have a little doubt, I can't bear to see the other person's true thoughts. In my early years, I crossed the sea alone to Yunlu to study with the master of secret art Feng Jianqing. The hardships and hardships on the way made me no longer trust others, and I can even say... I am full of suspicion."
His apology and subsequent explanation made Yu Shiqi and Wei Qiutong slightly calm down some of their dissatisfaction and uneasiness. Although they were still suspicious of Xu Jingkong's words, their attitude towards him at this time was no longer as disgusting and fearful as they had only heard Chen Jingxuan's one-sided words before.
"I have seen too many cunning and sinister people during my journey in Yunlu. I think people's hearts are dirty, and human nature is evil and selfish." Xu Jingkong said slowly, "After the Battle of Qingyun led to the collapse and division of the Yun Empire, the war did not end, but spread in Yunlu for hundreds of years. Although the world was finally unified by the Lengquan Kingdom, the country and the people were fascinated by the environment of rituals and music during the long attack."
"Didn't Lengquan want to restore the etiquette system and educate the people after unifying the world?" Yu Shiqi asked.
"Under the influence of the Hundred Years of War, generations have become barbaric and selfish. How easy is it to change?" Xu Jingkong spread his hands and said helplessly, "Lengquan ruled the world with severe punishments and laws, but punishment and killing still cannot stop people from doing evil. It can be seen how corrupt people's hearts have become. Before I learned the secret technique, I was able to protect myself by relying on this ability to read the mind."
Wei Qiutong said to Yu Shiqi: "If Yunlu is really so unbearable, Boss Chen still has to go there to develop a business. Do you think it is possible?"
Yu Shiqi did not answer her, but thought in his heart that there might not be a conflict between the two. It is precisely because the people of Yunlu value profit over righteousness that Chen Jingxuan can see that there are business opportunities.
Xu Jingkong said at this time: "It's okay if you don't trust me. Just waiting for Jingxuan to come back may delay what you want to do."
"Since Mr. Xu feels that people's hearts are untrustworthy and always be wary of others, why do you want to help us this time?" Yu Shiqi asked.
"Ahem... Because I have read the thoughts in your hearts several times, your heart is different from most people in Yunlu and most people in Dongping City." Xu Jingkong replied seriously, "It is only valuable that it is desirable, and I am just a small task to help you."
Yu Shiqi was silent for a moment, told Xu Jingkong that the two of them needed to discuss and consider it again, and then pulled Wei Qiutong to leave quickly.
On the way to the suit and rouge powder needed for the purchase, the two of them were silent and not talking most of the time, thinking about Xu Jingkong's words and the possibility of cooperation with him.
When choosing the suit, they were naturally based on the wishes of Wei Qiutong, the actor who was the planned goddess. Yu Shiqi, who was standing by, could not give any good advice, and could only help with the inspection when she hesitated. However, they switched three ready-to-wear shops in a row, but Wei Qiutong did not pick out suitable clothes. On the one hand, the existing women's clothing in these ready-to-wear shops are too secular, gorgeous but not as fairy-like. On the other hand, they were worried and could not calm down and focus on the tasks in front of them.
"Look for the next one to try your luck?" Yu Shiqi suggested to Wei Qiutong, who looked obviously frustrated, after coming out of the third ready-to-wear shop.
"Let's go, although I no longer have hope..." Wei Qiutong replied sickly.
Yu Shiqi sighed, thinking that she couldn't blame her. The three families I saw before did not have any eyes, but their fairy spirits were even less than the plain clothes that the disciples of Xuannv sect were used to wearing when practicing martial arts.
Now it's too late to find someone to customize it, and he doesn't know if the money he has left is enough to buy the remaining things if he finds someone to customize clothes. After all, good rouge and water powder and jewelry are also expensive.
