"Don't you think our Boss is too mysterious?" Zhang Tianzhen sat at the dining table, picking food into his bowl, and said, "That's a legitimate Cultivation thod, he got it just like that. When we first beca Ti Travelers, we praised He Xiaoxiao for being a high-level player, getting so many strategies so quickly. Now, thinking about it, He Xiaoxiao probably couldn't compare to our Boss."
Hu Xiaoniu glanced at him: "Stop speculating about the Boss. It's a good thing he's willing to teach you the Cultivation thod; don't think too much about anything else."
"I'm not thinking too much," Zhang Tianzhen said excitedly, "I'm just amazed that we made the right choice back then. Wang Yun and Bai Wan'er both said to wait and see before coming to Luo City, but you were very determined to transfer schools. If we weren't among the first to arrive, how could we have had this kind of good fortune."
"I don't think so," Hu Xiaoniu shook his head, "It's certainly good that we ca early, but ultimately, it's our attitude that impressed the Boss. Look at those spoiled rich kids; they didn't co late either, but has the Boss taken a liking to any of them? So, we still need to do our jobs well."
"Then tell , what's the relationship between Qing Chen and the Boss?" Zhang Tianzhen curiously asked, "Why does the Boss trust him so much, even giving him the legitimate Cultivation thod? And this ti to Xian City, only Qing Chen was by the Boss's side; even Liu Dezhu only stood at the exit for a while."
Hu Xiaoniu tapped the table with his chopsticks: "Hey, I told you not to speculate casually. When we're supposed to know, the Boss will naturally tell us."
"Okay," Zhang Tianzhen mumbled, "I'm not casually speculating about the Boss; I'm just simply curious... But I have to say, Qing Chen is far more capable than I imagined. Honestly, I admire him."
As Li Dongze said, the two of them were indeed complentary, one upright and one unconventional.
Zhang Tianzhen was quick-witted and unscrupulous, while Hu Xiaoniu was upright and forthright.
Whenever Hu Xiaoniu got stuck on a detail, Zhang Tianzhen could always remind him in ti; and whenever Zhang Tianzhen got the urge to cut corners, Hu Xiaoniu could always talk him out of it.
They were both very aware of this.
While they were eating, a moving truck horn sounded downstairs. Hu Xiaoniu peered out of the window: "Alright, stop eating. My moving company is here. Let's help Jiang Xue and Qing Chen pack."
"Finish our al first," Zhang Tianzhen called from behind.
"No, we'll do important things first," Hu Xiaoniu said.
Hu Xiaoniu diligently carried out every order from the "Boss," ensuring that every task was done perfectly before feeling at ease.
They saw the movers taking out storage boxes and turning on the body caras to ensure that no worker would steal or damage anything.
Like soldiers, they quickly categorized each item, sealed the boxes, and loaded them onto the truck.
Qing Chen watched this scene and asked Hu Xiaoniu, "These people, are they the ones who helped you move before? I've seen them."
Hu Xiaoniu was a little surprised. The other person could actually rember so ordinary movers?
In fact, this moving company wasn't just any company; it was a professional moving company from the Hu Family Group, which had rushed over from Haicheng a few days ago.
When moving, others had several large boxes, especially Nangeng Chen; the miscellaneous items he bought online from Pinduoduo were dazzling.
Only Qing Chen had a small box containing a few sets of clothes and so toiletries.
There were no picture fras, photo albums, or items that commorated the past.
Ordinary people would have so photos with their parents, or yearbooks, letters, or gifts from others, but Qing Chen didn't.
It was as if he were moving, severing even his past.
"Qing Chen, where's your stuff?" Hu Xiaoniu curiously asked.
"I threw most of it away last night," Qing Chen calmly said, "Let's go."
At the entrance of the building, Hu Xiaoniu watched Qing Chen's back as he got into Jiang Xue's car, like a solitary hero from the martial arts novels she had read.
Without any attachnts.
The moving truck and Jiang Xue's vehicle drove into the "National Treasure Garden' villa area, house number 12.
Li Tongyun and Nangeng Chen were both looking out of the windows, admiring the green environnt of this famous wealthy area in Luo City. Xiao Tongyun said, "Brother Xiaoniu said our yard is over 700 square ters. Can we raise several cats?"
Jiang Xue helplessly said, "Don't just get excited. Raising pets is a responsibility; feeding, cleaning up after them, bathing, and changing cat litter all take ti. You're so lazy, don't even ntion this to ."
"Okay," Li Tongyun looked longingly out the window; she had never lived in such a good house in her life.
At this ti, Nangeng Chen suddenly said, "Brother Chen, do all the people living here have money and are well-mannered?"
Qing Chen glanced at him: "Having money and being well-mannered are not directly related."
At this mont, the vehicle passed a middle-aged man walking his dog. Qing Chen saw him, and the man saw Qing Chen.
However, Qing Chen expressionlessly turned his head away.
The middle-aged man looked at the departing vehicle in astonishnt. He went to the gate and asked the security guard, "Hello, what vehicle just went in?"
The security guard looked at the middle-aged man, clearly familiar with him: "Mr. Qin, that's the new hoowner who just moved in, the innermost house, number 12."
National Treasure Garden also has different house types and levels. There are 198-square-ter and 268-square-ter townhouses, as well as 418-square-ter small detached houses and 720-square-ter large detached houses.
Therefore, the hoowners living here are also divided into different levels, and the 720-square-ter house in the middle is undoubtedly the most affluent.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a long ti. He only ran a dium-sized machinery processing company, so he only bought a 198-square-ter townhouse in this wealthy area.
A 720-square-ter large detached villa was his long-cherished dream, but he couldn't afford it.
Those detached houses have their own large gardens, and even the roads leading to these large detached houses in the community are semi-enclosed, and ordinary people would never go there.
Those large detached houses are like mysterious castles.
At this ti, the middle-aged man was a little uncertain. He wondered if the young man he saw in the car was soone he knew.
Because there was no reason for the other party to be here.
But after thinking it over, he still picked up his phone: "Hey, Wanfang, there's a new hoowner in National Treasure Garden. I think the person sitting in the back of the car was Qing Chen... Yes, I know his house number; I can take you to find him."
...
...
The move was quickly completed.
Li Tongyun and Jiang Xue lived on the third floor. Qing Chen set a rule that n were not allowed to go upstairs. Everyone consciously complied; violators would be expelled from Daybreak.
Hu Xiaoniu, Zhang Tianzhen, and Liu Dezhu lived on the second floor, each with their own room.
Qing Chen and Nangeng Chen lived on the first floor.
Although the villa had eight bedrooms, the two rooms on the first floor were a small bedroom and a maid's room; they were very narrow and could only fit a bed and a desk.
This was what Qing Chen arranged for himself. He didn't care much about the size of his living space; he just needed a place to sleep.
Hu Xiaoniu glanced at Qing Chen's room and hesitated: "Qing Chen, let Zhang Tianzhen and live in these two rooms; you two can go upstairs."
"I live here to deal with potential crises," Qing Chen explained, "If there are enemies invading, I will be the first to discover them."
Zhang Tianzhen suddenly said: "Qing Chen, I'm a light sleeper; let live here. If soone sneaks in, they will definitely wake up."
Qing Chen calmly asked, "Will it help if you wake up?"
Zhang Tianzhen: ...
Qing Chen looked at everyone: "I know you all think that based on my position in the organization, I should live in the master bedroom on the second floor, but we haven't beco powerful enough to be vain. So, do as I say."
This room assignnt also made everyone in Daybreak aware of Qing Chen's character.
The young man was too practical, to the point of giving up all other superficial things.
Normally, the hierarchical relationship within an organization needs external representation. Like a wolf pack, the alpha wolf gets to eat the organs first, and the order of eating is a reflection of the hierarchy.
But Qing Chen didn't care about these things at all. He only cared about the most practical things.
However, at this mont, the doorbell rang. Qing Chen glanced at Nangeng Chen: "They haven't seen you before. Know what to say?"
"Yes," Nangeng Chen nodded.
Qing Chen looked at the others: "Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen will deal with it. Let Nangeng Chen do the talking and send them away."
Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen were stunned. They didn't even know what was about to happen, but the young man in front of them seed to have guessed a lot of things.
Nangeng Chen opened the door to see a middle-aged couple with a child standing outside.
The middle-aged woman looked at Nangeng Chen, Hu Xiaoniu, and Zhang Tianzhen and introduced herself: "Hello, my na is Zhang Wanfang, and I'm also a hoowner in National Treasure Garden. I heard you just moved in, so I ca to visit."
Nangeng Chen smiled: "Hello, we'll be neighbors from now on."
Zhang Wanfang's gaze kept going past the three of them, looking inside, but she didn't see the figure she wanted to see.
After much hesitation, she asked, "I would like to ask, is there a classmate nad Qing Chen here?"
Nangeng Chen was stunned. He frankly said, "No, you must have co to the wrong place. We don't have anyone nad Qing Chen."
The middle-aged man politely asked, "Excuse , are you students?"
Hu Xiaoniu smiled: "Yes, we transferred from Haicheng. We used to study in Haicheng and just transferred to Luo City, studying at Luo Yi High."
Luo City Foreign Language School and Luo Yi High School are two completely different schools.
In Luo City, the Luo City Foreign Language School where Qing Chen attended was only moderately below average. He went there because of the tuition-free program.
For Qing Chen, it didn't matter where he went to school; it was always self-study ti anyway.
Tuition is what matters.
Nangeng Chen actually knew that Zhang Wanfang was Qing Chen's mother, but he didn't feel the sa way about seeing his good brother's leader. Instead, when he thought about the hardships Qing Chen had suffered, he couldn't help but be impolite.
Especially when the other party saw Qing Chen's figure and deliberately ca to find him with his new family, Nangeng Chen didn't understand.
However, the other party's appearance here was both unexpected and expected.
He smiled at the middle-aged man: "Uncle, it doesn't seem to be any of your business where we're from."
The middle-aged man thought for a mont: "Sorry, I just asked casually."
Zhang Wanfang suddenly said, "Excuse , can we go inside and have a look?"
But as soon as she finished speaking, two more cars stopped at the entrance of the yard; both were rcedes-Benz Maybach S-Class.
A chubby middle-aged man jumped out of the car. He was wearing a black Tang suit and had a string of small-leaf sandalwood beads on his wrist.
When he saw Hu Xiaoniu, he laughed happily: "Xiaoniu, you didn't tell your uncle about such a big event last night. Almost lost my manners!"
This is Luo Wanya, who Zhang Tianzhen had ntioned, a local tycoon from Luo City who started with pyramid sches in the 1990s. Later, his company transford, and he got out of debt early by doing investnt guarantees, did small loan companies and got out of debt, now he does local mining, earthworks, steel, and runs a real estate company.
He's a real local snake in Luo City, a loophole in the rule of law.
To say he was unlucky, he was one of the second batch to enter the Inner World. When he found the countdown on his arm, he began to gather subordinates with the sa countdown, planning to do sothing big, even planning to pick up his old trade.
As a result, as soon as he entered, he was caught because of his authentic Luo City accent.
In the past two months, Luo Wanya has been desperately learning Mandarin. If anyone spoke to him in Luo City dialect, he would get angry...
However, learning Mandarin alone couldn't save his life. He wanted to get his Inner World subordinates to save him, but he couldn't find where he was imprisoned.
Also, Luo Wanya knew one thing very well; those criminals were really ruthless. Each of them carried firearms, and they were all Gene Soldiers.
His subordinates could still make a living by lending money at high interest rates in the county town, but facing those ruthless people who were holding him captive, forget it.
For the past two months, he has been spending money to hire Ti Travelers to help rescue him, even contacting Kunlun and Nine Provinces, but everyone's foundation in the Inner World is still too thin; no one knows where he is imprisoned.
This is not to bla Kunlun and Nine Provinces. After all, those who controlled him were Shendai and Koshima's spies lurking in Luo City, even Li Changqing couldn't catch them all, let alone Ti Travelers.
So ti ago, Luo Wanya heard about Zhang Chengze's matter, and suddenly felt like he had grabbed the last lifeline.
He accurately judged that there must be experts in this Daybreak organization, otherwise Zhang Chengze would have died!
This is a very smart person; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to be this local snake.
Luo Wanya smiled and walked towards Hu Xiaoniu: "Xiaoniu, I live in National Treasure Garden too. You should have told Uncle earlier that you wanted to move here. I would have let you have my house, and you wouldn't have had to spend any money!"
At this ti, the middle-aged man beside Zhang Wanfang looked at Luo Wanya in astonishnt: "Mr. Luo, hello."
Luo Wanya was also stunned: "Who are you?"
For a mont, he didn't understand the relationship between this couple and Hu Xiaoniu's group, so it was a little difficult to speak.
The middle-aged man said: "My na is Qin Shuli. I t you once at the CPPCC eting."
"Oh, oh, Mr. Qin," Luo Wanya rolled his eyes, "You guys... know each other?"
Qin Shuli shook his head: "No, we're just visiting the new neighbors."
Luo Wanya was relieved. He smiled and said, "Alright, you've finished your visit, so go back. I still have so important things to talk about with Xiaoniu. Sorry."
He moved his fat body out of the way, making a path. His black Tang suit looked awkward on him.
Seeing this, Qin Shuli had to take Qin Haohua's hand and leave with Zhang Wanfang.
Luo Wanya smiled and asked his n to bring over a box: "Xiaoniu, you don't have anything that I can give you when you co to Luo City. Drive these two Benzes; they're for you to use to buy groceries. You can rest assured; I'm never stingy. If you can help with this, you are my Luo Wanya's lifesaver."
Hu Xiaoniu thought for a mont: "Co in and talk. We need to find out so things from you. Whether we can help you or not, we're not sure, but this matter is quite tricky."
Qin Shuli, who was walking out of the yard, heard Luo Wanya's words and subconsciously looked at the two rcedes-Benz Maybach S-Class at the entrance.
In fact, neither car was the top model, but even so, they would cost over two million.
And Qin Shuli drove a Volkswagen Passat that cost just over 200,000; Zhang Wanfang didn't even have a car yet.
Qin Shuli had promised that if the foreign trade deal was signed at the end of the year, he would buy Zhang Wanfang a car as a wedding gift.
He couldn't figure it out.
The three people in this villa were clearly students; why would Luo Wanya be so generous, using two cars of this level as a gift?
It's too exaggerated!
Zhang Wanfang looked at Qin Shuli: "Did you really see Qing Chen in the car?"
Qin Shuli recalled: "I'm not sure, but looking at this family's situation, I think it might be a misunderstanding."
He wavered; in his opinion, this house and people like Luo Wanya shouldn't be associated with Qing Chen.
Zhang Wanfang kept looking back at the "castle', still not giving up.
When she could still contact Qing Chen, she always felt that her son was on Xingshu Road and she could find him anyti she wanted to.
But now it was different; she had completely lost contact with her son.
"Let's go," Qin Shuli said gently.
At this ti, Qing Chen was sitting in the house, not even hiding behind the curtains to see the family of three off.
Nangeng Chen returned to the room and said: "Brother Chen, they're gone. I wanted to mock them, but Luo Wanya interrupted ."
"Yeah," Qing Chen nodded, "Actually, there's no need, and for them, there's nothing wrong with their choices in life. Everyone has the right to choose, so there's no need to mock them. It's fine as long as they don't bother us."
"Oh, okay," Nangeng Chen agreed.
Qing Chen smiled: "Let's deal with Luo Wanya's matter first."
Nangeng Chen hesitated and said: "By the way, since the aunt could find her way here, it ans she still..."
Qing Chen smiled: "It's very simple for her to find ; she can just wait at the school gate. I haven't dropped out of school. But she also has to work during our school hours."
Qing Chen was no longer a naive child; he was extrely calm.
What's broken is broken; there's nothing more to say.
