Chapter 13101 You are just clever
When Qian Xuejin heard this, his eyes flashed slightly, as if he was surprised and relieved by Ling Xiao's tolerance.
He looked at Ling Xiao deeply again, his eyes showing both gratitude and relief, "It was a misunderstanding. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I will not bother you any more." As he said that, he slowly stood up and prepared to leave.
At this moment, Ling Xiao suddenly spoke, his voice gentle but with a hint of determination that could not be ignored: "Senior, wait a minute."
He raised his hand gently, signaling Qian Xuejin to be patient, his eyes revealing some deep meaning, as if he had something else to say. This action made Qian Xuejin, who was about to leave, stop involuntarily, and turned to look at Ling Xiao, waiting for his next words.
Immediately, Ling Xiao slowly pulled out two exquisite scrolls from his sleeves. The scrolls used delicate brushstrokes to outline the stunning figures of Yue Nu and Xiao Lianzhu. In the picture of Yue Nu, she was wearing a light gauze, her eyebrows were like distant mountains covered with smoke, and her eyes were as clear as autumn water, as if she could see into people's hearts;
The portrait of Xiao Lianzhu shows a gentle and lovely temperament. She leans lightly on a flower branch, smiling like a flower, and her eyes sparkling with wisdom and tenderness.
Ling Xiao held the scroll in his hand, his tone full of sincerity and expectation:
"I heard that Sitong Trading Company is spread all over the world, with a wide range of eyes and ears, and is especially good at collecting intelligence from all sides. I went to Sitong Trading Company to find these two people who are very important to me. They are not only my cherished friends, but also indispensable to my life. I hope that you can lend a hand and help me achieve my wish as soon as possible."
Qian Xuejin took the scroll and lingered on the face of the person in the painting. He couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, with a flash of amazement in his eyes:
"Alas, the person that Young Master Ling is looking for is indeed a rare and beautiful lady in the world. Please rest assured, Young Master Ling, since we have already made peace, I will definitely go all out on this matter and use all the available resources of the company to try to bring you good news in the shortest possible time. Within seven days, there will be definite news to let you rest assured."
Hearing this, Ling Xiao felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He stood up, clasped his hands together, and bowed deeply, his tone full of gratitude: "Senior, I am very grateful for your generosity. If there is any need in the future, I will do my best to repay you for your kindness today."
Seeing this, Qian Xuejin laughed and waved his hand, saying, "Young Master Ling, you are too kind. It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning. If I really want to thank you, it's for your magnanimity in resolving the previous misunderstanding. Since you have nothing else to do, I will not bother you any more and will take my leave now."
Ling Xiao nodded again and watched Qian Xuejin turn around and leave. He said softly, "Senior, please walk slowly and be careful on the road. I will be waiting for your good news."
Qian Xuejin turned around, with a warm smile on his face, and bowed again, saying, "Young Master Ling, please stay. I will be leaving now. Goodbye!"
After saying this, he turned around and left with Qian Yingying, with firm but slightly heavy steps, and every step seemed to step on the waves in the hearts of both of them.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone obliquely on them, casting a faint golden glow on their departing figures, but it also revealed the unwillingness and resentment that was difficult to conceal on Qian Yingying's face.
As she walked out of the heavy door, the noise and chaos of the outside world instantly flooded into her ears, but Qian Yingying seemed to hear only the sound of her own heartbeat, which was a drumbeat of unwillingness and humiliation.
She finally took off her disguise, and the unwilling expression on her pretty face was like the dark clouds before a storm, too thick to dissolve. She pursed her lips tightly, her eyes were slightly red, but she stubbornly refused to let the tears fall. It was a complex emotion mixed with anger, grievance and unwillingness.
"Are you unwilling to give up?" Qian Xuejin's voice sounded at the right time, deep and magnetic, as if it could penetrate people's hearts. He stopped, turned around, and looked at Qian Yingying deeply, with a hint of imperceptible pity flashing in his eyes that had seen through vicissitudes of life.
"Are you willing to accept this?" Qian Yingying almost roared out these words, her voice trembling with anger, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth.
"I lost one of my hands. That was my glory and strength, but now it is crippled. The masters we carefully trained fell one by one. That was our years of hard work.
Even the branch’s treasures, those treasures that symbolize our strength, were ruthlessly plundered.
And we are still helping the person who started all this? This is not only cowardly, but also a shame! "
Her words were filled with resentment and anger, her fists were clenched tightly, and her nails were deeply dug into her palms, as if only this could ease the pain in her heart.
Qian Xuejin listened quietly without interrupting, but his eyes became even deeper.
After Qian Yingying had finished venting, he slowly spoke: "Cowardly? Of course you are. Remember this feeling and let it become your motivation to move forward.
Remember the lesson from this time. It tells you that in this world where the strong are respected, strength is the only pass. If you want to get rid of this kind of cowardice, you must make yourself stronger, strong enough to make everyone in awe. "
There was an unquestionable firmness in his words, as if he was pointing out a path for Qian Yingying.
"Especially this Ling Xiao," Qian Xuejin continued, his tone becoming more serious, "His appearance is by no means accidental, there must be a powerful force behind him that we can hardly imagine.
Provoking him may be just a personal grudge, but if you anger the existence behind him, it will be an unimaginable disaster. You, me, and even the entire organization may be destroyed because of this. So remember, never underestimate your enemy, and don't challenge the unknown power at will. "
Qian Yingying seemed to have gone through a fierce struggle in her heart during the moment of silence. Finally, she raised her head abruptly, with unwillingness and doubt in her eyes, and suddenly said, "There may not be someone behind him. Maybe he is just bluffing."
This sentence not only shows her persistence in her own judgment, but also reveals her dissatisfaction with the status quo and speculation about the unknown.
Upon hearing this, Qian Xuejin stopped, turned around, and looked at Qian Yingying deeply. His eyes showed both tolerance for the younger generation and unquestionable firmness.
"Bluffing?" He repeated these four words slowly, with a hint of helplessness and instruction in his tone.
"The Jiang family and the Ji family are both giants in the Demon Suppression Palace. The Imperial Palace is even more aloof, but they were also defeated by this man. Especially the Jiang family and the Ji family, which were almost wiped out overnight. Tell me, is this just the effect of bluffing?"
Qian Xuejin shook his head as he spoke, and his action revealed a deep sense of powerlessness, as if he was helpless about Qian Yingying's thoughts, as well as lamenting the cruelty of reality.
"You are indeed quite smart and can detect unusual things from subtle details, but this kind of intelligence is often just a little cleverness when facing a truly strong person, and it is not enough for you to see through everything."
