The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 322 Saying Goodbye Without Farewell
The weasel emitted a series of annoying shrieks, but unfortunately, Mr. Huang couldn't understand what it was saying.
Mr. Huang quickly dialed a phone number, but was met with a message stating that the user had switched off their phone. He immediately sensed that something was wrong and quickly called room service.
In less than half a minute, a young and beautiful female attendant knocked on the door and entered.
"Mr. Huang, is there anything I can help you with?"
Mr. Huang didn't say anything, but the female attendant let out a scream, because she saw a weasel at Mr. Huang's feet...
However, her scream didn't last long. Immediately afterwards, her expression became gloomy.
Mr. Huang knew that the Huangpizi (weasel spirit) had successfully possessed her, so he immediately asked anxiously, "Where did my father go? Why did you come back alone?"
This Huangpizi was a demon immortal raised by his father. The two were inseparable on normal days. If nothing had happened, the Huangpizi would never have returned alone.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the female attendant say in a shrill voice, "You little brat, I am your father!"
Mr. Huang was stunned, and then asked in shock, "Dad, did you use soul-shifting? What exactly is going on?"
The soul-shifting technique was a unique secret skill of their sect that could transfer one's own soul to the demon immortal they raised.
However, this soul-shifting technique was a life-saving secret skill and would not be abused unless it was absolutely necessary.
Because once the soul-shifting technique was used, one could only share a body with the demon immortal.
In other words, Mr. Huang's father, Grandmaster Huang, could only live out his life as a Huangpizi.
Then Mr. Huang heard the female attendant say, "My body was destroyed by someone. Boy, you must avenge me!"
Mr. Huang was furious when he heard this, "Who is so bold as to destroy your body?"
The female attendant gritted her teeth and said viciously, "Who else could it be? It's that Chen Xiao. That brat first destroyed the flower field and now destroyed my body. I think he was sent by the heavens to harm us!"
Mr. Huang's eyes were bloodshot, and he said coldly, "I was going to let him jump around for a few more days, but I didn't expect this brat to destroy your body. I will take his dog's life within a day and avenge both the old and new grudges!"
Mr. Huang and his father secretly planned their revenge, not knowing that the object of their revenge was right outside the convenience store opposite the Maple Leaf Hotel.
Chen Xiao waited for a while and realized that the Huangpizi was no longer coming out, so he understood that this must be their lair.
However, he didn't go in. Instead, he called Song Zijian and provided him with some clues.
In fact, if he wanted to, he wouldn't need Song Zijian to intervene in this matter at all. However, he didn't do so because he wanted to give Song Zijian a chance to prove himself.
Chen Xiao was just one person. Although he could do it himself, he didn't want to do everything personally. He had already provided enough clues. If Song Zijian couldn't even follow the clues and find out something, then he would have wasted his efforts.
In that case, there would be no need to continue helping him in the future.
After providing the clues, Chen Xiao took a taxi home, arriving just in time for dinner.
It was lively when a large family ate together. Although there was no blood relationship, Liu Zhen was easy-going and got along with everyone better than relatives, making it very harmonious.
In fact, even between Chen Xiao and Liu Zhen, there was no blood relationship, but that didn't prevent Liu Zhen and Chen Xiao from having a deep mother-son relationship!
During dinner, Chen Xiao noticed that someone was missing from the table. Li Qin wasn't there.
He casually asked, "Where's Li Qin? Why isn't she here for dinner?"
"Oh, Qin'er has already left."
Gu Zhendong said calmly.
"Ah? Why did she leave? When did this happen? Why didn't she say goodbye?"
Chen Xiao was very surprised by Li Qin's departure.
Leaving was no problem, but leaving without saying goodbye wasn't very good, right?
Then he heard Gu Yutong say, "Sister Qin'er was just afraid that if she said goodbye to you, she wouldn't be able to leave, so she didn't say goodbye..."
Gu Yutong's words carried a hint of resentment.
"Uh, this..."
Chen Xiao was speechless.
How could he not know Li Qin's feelings for him?
However, after returning from outside, Chen Xiao didn't have many opportunities to be alone with Li Qin.
And Li Qin also learned from the side that Chen Xiao had a real girlfriend.
Li Qin suddenly realized that although she could now live under the same roof as Chen Xiao, this life was not what she had imagined.
She began to feel that perhaps sometimes, meeting was not as good as missing.
So, after thinking it through, she resolutely decided to leave.
But it must be said that Gu Yutong's words made the atmosphere at the dinner table a little awkward, so Gu Zhendong smoothed things over and said, "Qin'er is still young. Maybe it's not a bad thing for her to venture out into the martial world and gain some experience."
Li Mu also chimed in, "That's right, Qin'er has been wild since she was a child. Letting her stay here every day is more uncomfortable than taking her life!"
Although his sister had left, Li Mu hadn't left.
He felt that his current life was very comfortable and fulfilling. With his great revenge avenged, he no longer had to worry every day and night. Moreover, through Chen Xiao's connections, Qi Tianhu had arranged for him to work as a lobby manager in a hotel.
He had never lived such a comfortable life since his family was destroyed.
It had already made him forget about returning. As for restoring the Maha Sect, he would leave it to his sister!
After dinner, Gu Yutong sent Li Qin a message: "Sister Qin'er, Brother Chen Xiao has already found out that you left..."
Li Qin's message came back quickly: "Oh? What did he say?"
Gu Yutong: "He didn't say anything, but he looked a little lost."
Li Qin: "Oh, I see."
After a moment, Li Qin sent another message: "Maybe it's true that being together is not as good as forgetting each other in the martial world. Since we are destined to be impossible, I should forget him as soon as possible."
Gu Yutong became anxious, and her fingers quickly clicked on the keyboard on the screen: "Sister Qin'er, don't give up. What will I do if you give up? Won't I have to fight alone in the future?"
"..."
Li Qin was speechless.
Although they hadn't spent much time together, Li Qin and Gu Yutong had become good besties, the kind who could talk about anything.
After seeing that Li Qin liked Chen Xiao, Gu Yutong said that she also liked Brother Chen Xiao and didn't mind serving him together with Li Qin.
Li Qin thought it was just a joke, but who would have thought that this little girl was serious!
"Little girl, you're precocious. Study your lessons properly. If you want to be in a relationship, at least wait until you graduate from college! Otherwise, I'll tell Uncle Gu!"
