Chapter 849

After settling Lao Cui down, Ye Xiao talked to Si Jinxiu about Lao Cui and asked her to help find Lao Cui's descendants.

Si Jinxiu agreed without hesitation. Xuanyuan's intelligence network spread all over the country, so it was not difficult to find someone.

And she also saw Ye Xiao's intention, which was to keep Lao Cui. With such a great master in charge, they had a better chance of winning against the forces that rebuilt the Jingwu Association.

In the evening, after dinner, Ye Xiao returned to his room. When he was about to practice breathing techniques as usual, the spare mobile phone suddenly vibrated.

Ye Xiao picked it up and saw that it was an unfamiliar number from Gangcheng. After hesitating for a few seconds, Ye Xiao answered it.

"Hello, are you Xiao Ye? I'm Shangguan Jingyu." As soon as the phone was connected, a middle-aged man's voice came from the other side.

Ye Xiao was slightly stunned. On his first day in Gangcheng, he had planned to visit Shangguan Jingyu, but he came to nothing. Not only did he not see anyone from the Shangguan family, but he was also mocked by Pan Shiyuan.

"Hello, Uncle Shangguan!" Ye Xiao responded politely.

"Xiao Ye, your aunt and I were not in Gangcheng a few days ago. I heard Qiu Wei say that you had been to our house before. Qiu Wei is not sensible. Don't take it to heart if she is not well entertained." Shangguan Jingyu said apologetically.

The marriage between Ye Xiao and his daughter was arranged by him and Ye Xiao's mother. He was still very optimistic about Ye Xiao, but today he heard his daughter say that Ye Xiao was not allowed to enter the house that day, which made him quite unhappy.

"It's okay, Uncle Shangguan, I just happened to be busy that day." Seeing that the other party was so polite, Ye Xiao naturally didn't blame him.

Moreover, he already knew Shangguan Qiuwei's attitude. If they met, they would be disgusted with each other, just like Jiang Chenyu in the Magic City. Every time they met, she almost never gave Ye Xiao a good face.

"Xiao Ye, come to my house tomorrow! Your aunt and I want to see you." Shangguan Jingyu continued.

Ye Xiao hesitated for a moment and agreed. It was good to meet her and explain the matter of breaking off the engagement clearly, so that he could focus on the task.

Soon, time came to the next morning.

Ye Xiao originally planned to give Xue Shengnan acupuncture before going out, but Xue Shengnan told him that Lao Cui had already treated her.

At this time, Ye Xiao found that Xue Shengnan's eyes looking at him were a little wrong. It was no longer the gratitude in the past, but a little resentment.

Oops, could it be that I delayed the healing process of her and was discovered and revealed by Lao Cui!

It is very possible. In Longguo, medicine and Taoism are inseparable. In addition, Lao Cui is a senior warrior who can see the gods. His insight into the human body is far beyond that of ordinary warriors.

Damn, how could I forget this? It seems that I should find a chance to tell Lao Cui about it.

"Ahem!" Ye Xiao coughed twice and said, "Old Cui has been in seclusion for many years and is a Taoist warrior. He should be more skilled than me in treating internal injuries. With the help of Old Cui, I believe your injuries will recover faster."

After that, Ye Xiao walked out of the room angrily. At this time, the more he said, the more mistakes he made. It would be better not to explain.

After leaving the community, Ye Xiao got on a Mercedes-Benz car that had been parked at the gate.

The driver was Gong Laoer, whom Ye Xiao asked from Su Jianxin.

Ever since he had the experience of Wang Chufeng as his private driver in Tianhai, Ye Xiao felt that it would be much more convenient to have a car on call.

When he was in Magic City, he asked Tan Lang to be his driver, but the guy's service level was not good, so when he arrived in Gangcheng, Ye Xiao replaced him with Gong Laoer, who used to be a bodyguard for the rich.

Gong Laoer was of course very happy to work for Ye Xiao. Ye Xiao was not only good at martial arts, but also generous. As soon as he arrived in Gangcheng, he threw him 5 million yuan, let him get a car, change his clothes and become Ye Xiao's driver.

For this kind of business that can make money without fighting, Gong Laoer naturally accepted it with a smile.

After asking Ye Xiao where he was going, Gong Laoer drove all the way, and in about ten minutes, he drove the car to the villa where Shangguan's family was.

Ye Xiao couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Although Gong Laoer only had one eye, his driving skills were the best among his three drivers.

After getting off the car, Ye Xiao walked up and rang the doorbell of Shangguan's house. Just like last time, the maid with long braids came out to greet him.

The difference is that the maid's attitude is much better this time.

"Mr. Ye, please come in. The master and his wife are waiting for you." The maid opened the door and said respectfully.

Ye Xiao nodded slightly, and then followed the maid into the inner courtyard of the villa. At this time, he was holding two gifts that Gong Laoer had purchased. According to Gong Laoer, they were nutritional supplements that cost 80,000 yuan. Ye Xiao alsoI didn't pay much attention to it and just picked it up.

Soon, Ye Xiao entered the living room of the villa. The first person he saw was a middle-aged man with a resolute face. This man was Shangguan Jingyu, who had talked to Ye Xiao on the phone last night.

Shangguan Jingyu looked gentle and elegant, with a deep smile on his face, but Ye Xiao could still see that he looked a little anxious and depressed.

"Xiao Ye, come in and sit down!" Shangguan Jingyu greeted Ye Xiao enthusiastically.

"Hello, Uncle Shangguan!" After Ye Xiao greeted Shangguan Jingyu, his eyes fell on a middle-aged woman next to him, who looked like a very friendly woman.

"Xiao Ye, I've heard your uncle Shangguan introduce you several times. You are indeed a handsome man." The woman said with a smile, her voice was very soft and pleasant.

"Aunt Liang, thank you for the compliment." Ye Xiao knew that this should be Shangguan Jingyu's wife Liang Lanrong.

Ye Xiao was a little surprised by the enthusiasm of Shangguan Jingyu and his wife. He could see that they were both sincere and unpretentious, so why was their daughter Shangguan Qiuwei so arrogant?

"Qiuwei, why don't you come over and say hello to Xiaoye!" Shangguan Jingyu said to a girl sitting on the sofa with a little blame.

"Oh!"

Shangguan Qiuwei responded softly, then stood up a little embarrassedly and said to Ye Xiao: "Ye Xiao, welcome!"

Ye Xiao then moved his eyes to the last engagement object. Shangguan Qiuwei's temperament was elegant and extraordinary. She was about 1.65 meters tall, with fair skin, delicate features, and shy eyebrows.

Why was she different from the arrogant appearance he imagined?

At this moment, Ye Xiao caught a glimpse of someone, Pan Shiyuan.

At this time, she was sitting next to Shangguan Qiuwei. This woman was just as arrogant as when Ye Xiao first met her, but now she was still full of hostility, obviously holding a grudge against Zheng Guhe for forcing her to kneel down to Ye Xiao.

Pan Shiyuan didn't have the courage to hold a grudge against Zheng Guhe, so she could only put all her resentment on Ye Xiao.

The reason why she was at Shangguan's house today was because she heard Shangguan Qiuwei say that Ye Xiao was going to visit her. She was worried that Ye Xiao, who was only a coward who could only pretend to be powerful, would ruin her good deeds, so she rushed to Shangguan's house.

After a slight daze, Ye Xiao nodded to Shangguan Qiuwei, and then followed Shangguan Wenjing to sit on the sofa.

"Xiao Ye, are you coming to Gangcheng to fulfill your engagement with Qiuwei?" Shangguan Wenjing asked directly as soon as they sat down.
