Chapter 2316 Who would give me a "friend zone" card for no reason?

Who is a good person who tries hard to tell others: "I am a good person"?

However, he still said to Li Xiuying with a stern face, "Although I think you are a good person, you can't see into someone's heart, and you can't know what they're doing. Who knows if you will really betray me?"

Li Xiuying twisted her fingers shyly and said, "How about this, I'll give you some of my secrets too. If you have something on me, you won't have to worry about me betraying you!"

Qiao Liancheng became interested this time and asked suspiciously, "Tell me, what is your secret?"

Li Xiuying said with a smile, "I have a mission to take me to China this time."

“I don’t need to participate in the successor selection, but my father still managed to get me this opportunity so that I could see and learn more after I go to China.”

"The more important purpose is to go to China to look for opportunities and see if we can find a way out for my daughter and me."

"To show my sincerity, I can tell you about the selection process for the four successors in China this time."

"You can take precautions in advance, and make sure that none of the four heirs can complete their tasks."

Qiao Liancheng asked in surprise, "If you can't even complete the mission, won't you be unable to choose a successor?"

"We'll have to think of another way later."

Li Xiuying frowned and said, "That seems to make sense. If we can avoid this mission, we won't be able to choose a successor."

"But this is only temporary and cannot last long. The old man will definitely come up with another way, and then he may exclude my father and me."

This time, without Qiao Liancheng needing to say anything, Li Xiuying took out a piece of paper on her own initiative.

The list above contains the names of these heirs and the tasks they are to complete.

When Qiao Liancheng saw these tasks, he was so angry that he almost spat out blood.

These people are utterly shameless. If they were only trying to eavesdrop on some information or try to turn a researcher against them...

All of that is understandable, but there are two tasks on this piece of paper, which are to commit murder and arson, and then frame someone.

One of the targets of these missions was the president of Tsinghua University, who was also Pei Yuan's grandfather.

Qiao Liancheng knew Pei Yuan's grandfather all too well.

The old comrade is not young this year. Although he is still the principal, he will not be able to do so for many more years. He plans to spend these few years cultivating the next generation.

Then find someone who is dedicated to scientific research but not too rigid to be the principal.

Unexpectedly, this also offended those people, who actually targeted him.

However, on this business list...

Qiao Liancheng was shocked to discover that there were more than four tasks inside.

"Four heirs should have four tasks."

"But there are 12 items on this list?" he asked Li Xiuying, looking at her with a puzzled expression.

Li Xiuying replied, "Because if I choose a task alone, I might not be able to complete it."

"Therefore, the four of them prepared 12 tasks, and they only needed to choose one of them to complete."

Qiao Liancheng asked in surprise and curiosity, "Won't there be duplicates?"

That possibility still exists.

Li Xiuying thought for a moment and said, "Then it depends on who finishes first. Whoever finishes the task first gets to keep it."

Qiao Liancheng sighed softly and said, "Is this how the Li family survives the test of time?"

"So inhumane."

Li Xiuying smiled faintly: "That's them. Because I was born into a good family, I've had people protecting me since I was a child. My path was paved in advance."

"I can't even regret it or change it, so I don't need to compete with them."

These words, though spoken with pride, carried an inexplicable hint of sadness when uttered by Li Xiuying.

Come to think of it, other children are already playing and enjoying their childhood when they are five or six years old.

But Li Xiuying was playing with guns when she was five or six years old.

When I was a teenager.

My mother died in an accident, and my father has no memory of the events.

Unable to support the entire Li family's hidden lineage, she was the only one left to take over. Fortunately, although she was young at the time, she still managed to inherit all the resources left by her mother.

Otherwise, the father and daughter would probably have nowhere to go right now.

Qiao Liancheng did not give a clear answer. Since the little girl had already followed him and was also going to China, he would go with her. They could talk about the rest when they returned to China.

With Dong Liao's help, Qiao Liancheng found several martial arts masters in Hong Kong.

I spoke with them privately, but the result was not satisfactory.

Although these people are also Chinese, they have been in Hong Kong for a long time and have picked up many bad habits.

That kind of condescension and indifference that emanated from the very core of their being was something that Qiao Liancheng, a strict officer, found particularly unacceptable.

Therefore, he didn't say much.

Before leaving, they left the time and place of the conference, hoping that they could attend if possible!

Someone asked, "If I go to the conference venue, can I participate?"

"If I win the competition, how much prize money can I get?"

Qiao Liancheng frowned and thought for a moment before replying, "I'm not quite clear about the prize money yet. I need to discuss it with the organizers. As for the competition, there might be a selection process. Once you pass the preliminary selection, you can go on stage."

Qiao Liancheng originally planned to send two or three people from each sect as representatives.

But now he thinks that if these folk martial artists want to participate, they can, so why not start with a preliminary selection?

Regardless of country or sect, anyone who wants to participate can go on stage, and then suitable people will be selected through open auditions to proceed step by step. This would be fairer to ordinary people.

The unsuccessful negotiations left him in a bad mood.

After parting on bad terms with the local martial artists, Qiao Liancheng took a boat directly to Shenzhen the next day.

Li Xiuying came along too, and no one knows where she got her ID card from.

Surprisingly, they successfully passed through customs and entered Shenzhen.

Qiao Liancheng glanced at her ID card curiously a few times, thinking that no matter when or where, there are always fake IDs everywhere.

If given the chance, we could find out the source of the fake documents from Li Xiuying, and maybe even bust a whole operation.

Finally home, Qiao Liancheng felt like every pore on his body was opening up.

To their surprise, as soon as they passed through the customs checkpoint, before they even left the customs hall, there were already people waiting for them outside.

The person who came to pick them up in person was Yuan Xiaohua.

Sun Mu was also with him.

Qiao Liancheng was very surprised.

He took a few steps closer and greeted Yuan Xiaohua.

She looked at Sun Mu with a puzzled expression: "Why did you come here?"

Sun Mu said, "I brought the former deputy minister here. Your father-in-law misses you very much, so he asked me to come and pick you up!"
