as soon as long chen finished speaking, xia ling stared at him in disbelief. her mouth was slightly agape, but she couldn't say a word.
she had never thought that long chen would be able to accurately tell what she was thinking.
seeing xia ling's surprised expression, long chen knew he was right.
"silly girl, did i guess right?"
long chen pinched xia ling's cheeks.
xia ling reacted and excitedly hooked her arms around long chen's neck, " " i knew it. you understand me, and only you understand me. i only want you to understand me. "
" little xia ling, i also hope that one day, i can bring you all to roam the world, to roam the pugilistic world freely. martial arts rule the world, and beauties accompany you. i'm sure it'll be an extremely happy thing. "
long chen chuckled.
" hehe, i'm just afraid that there will not only be beauties on the left and right, but also a bunch of them behind. that will be difficult to handle. "
xia ling laughed.
"cough, why do you say that?"
"do i still need to be clear? you big pig trotter."
xia ling rolled her eyes at long chen,"you have two at home."
"well, have you had breakfast? why don't we go and eat together?"
long chen quickly changed the topic.
" i've eaten. i don't want to gain weight. you'll despise me if i gain weight. " xia ling said in a soft voice.
"i will never despise you."
"alright, you pig trotter, don't change the topic. let's talk about serious business.
the nangong family and the yang family have never given up on trying to get a share of our dragon doctor helps the world. it's just that right now, the two families are locked in a fierce battle.
they're fighting over who will be in charge of our dragon doctor helps the world. speaking of which, these two families are too arrogant and simply don't put us in their eyes.
what i want to say is that we should take this opportunity to do something."
"let them fight first. i want to see how capable they are."
long chen said with a relaxed smile.
" we can't underestimate our enemy. after all, martial families have always been mysterious. we don't know their true strength. although i've investigated a lot, i couldn't find out the true strength of martial families. i only found out that the experts of martial families are the top existences who can cut mountains and rivers with their swords. although i think it's an exaggeration, it also shows that martial families have a terrifying power that ordinary people can't reach. "
xia ling said sternly.
"what's there to fear?" "any power should be on the right path. those who don't, even if they control the power of heaven, will eventually walk towards destruction," long chen said.
"you ..."
xia ling wanted to tease long chen for his genteel manner.
however, looking at long chen's serious expression, xia ling was somewhat shocked.
since ancient times, those who had ill intentions did not have a good ending.
"xia ling, whether it's the yang family or the nangong family, they're just trying to take possession of the dragon doctor who has helped the world and possesses countless wealth.
these profit-seeking families also want to touch our dragon doctor helps the world. they're simply delusional. you don't have to be afraid. no matter how powerful they are, in the end, i can make them all scram."
long chen said solemnly.
" yes! " xia ling nodded her head vigorously. " i believe you. "
" yes. if any of them come to the company to cause trouble, you can contact me at any time. i'll come as fast as i can. " long chen said.
"i know."
xia ling leaned into long chen's arms, feeling a sense of security.
bang, bang.
at this moment, xia ling's secretary knocked on the door, " "president xia, you have a guest."
xia ling was stunned for a moment. she then smiled bitterly and said softly, " " every time i want to be intimate with you, this little secretary of mine will always arrive 'just in time'. it's strange. i think she's my sweet little nemesis. "
long chen couldn't help but laugh. " haha! why don't you ask who this visitor is first? "
"i know."
xia ling stood up and tidied up her appearance before saying, " "come in and talk."
the secretary walked into the office. when she saw long chen, she recalled what happened last time and blushed.
immediately, the secretary said softly, " president xia, brother long, this person claims to be from the yang family. he wants to see director xia. he seems to be very arrogant. i don't know how deep he is, so i'm here to ask for instructions. "
"invite him in," long chen said with a smile.
"this ..."
the little secretary looked at xia ling.
"brother long's words are my words," xia ling replied.
"i know."
the secretary turned around and left.
long chen grabbed xia ling, who blushed and pouted, " "you're annoying."
"your prestige is still much higher than mine," long chen said with a smile.
"doesn't the hands-off shopkeeper have to bear this kind of karma? besides, can't you just overpower me?"
xia ling blinked her eyes.
long chen was slightly surprised. xia ling's driving skills were superb and didn't feel out of place at all.
" then i'll have to find an opportunity to try and see if i can completely conquer it. "
"i'm also looking forward to it."
xia ling wasn't afraid at all, nor did she act reserved in front of long chen.
long chen liked this kind of personality very much.
a moment later, the secretary brought two people into the office.
one of them was old and the other was middle-aged. the old man was over seventy years old, and the middle-aged man was in his forties.
the two of them were dressed in ancient clothes and had long hair. they seemed out of place with the people of the modern city, as if they had traveled from ancient times.
" director xia, my name is yang shenhuan, the head of the yang family. this is my son, yang ji. he will be the future head of the yang family. today, i have specially come to visit. if i am presumptuous, please forgive me. "
yang shenhuan cupped his hands and gave off a rather polite feeling. he wasn't as arrogant as the little secretary had said.
"please take a seat,"
xia ling stood up and smiled.
following that, xia ling got her secretary to serve tea to yang shenhuan and yang ji.
"may i know the reason for your visit?"
xia ling sat down and asked calmly.
"father, should i say it?"
yang ji asked his father, yang shenhuan, with a smile.
"you tell me."
yang shenhuan said.
"alright," he said.
yang ji stood up and looked straight at xia ling,"it's really admirable for a woman like director xia to be able to control such a large-scale dragon doctor helps the world.
but now, the way of the world was different. martial arts aristocratic families from all over great xia entered the world one after another, and it was bound to stir up all kinds of waves.
they were all ambitious, and each of them was like a hungry wolf, choosing people to devour. in their eyes, the dragon doctor helping the world was an alluring piece of fat meat, and they would never let go of it easily.
"and director xia, without the help of the martial arts aristocratic families, you would definitely not be able to protect the dragon doctor who helps the world. that's why we are here."
i don't quite understand mr. yang's words. can you explain it more clearly? "
xia ling was unmoved.
on the side, long chen was also listening calmly.
after yang ji pondered for a while, he said sternly, " our meaning is simple. the yang family is already invincible in the qian prefecture. we hope to become a good partner of the dragon doctor to help the world. we can work together and control the dragon doctor together so that this giant ship can travel more safely across the world and bring blessings to all living beings. "
"regardless of whether the yang family is truly invincible in the qian prefecture, let's first talk about the cooperation. if, and i'm saying if, if i agree, then according to the two of you, how should the benefits be distributed?"
xia ling asked with a smile.
" the distribution of profits is very simple. we only need to take 40% of the profits we made in the past, and we only need to take 60% of the profits from now on. what do you think, director xia? "
yang ji's eyes were sharp as he stared at xia ling.
xia ling sneered and couldn't help but say, " sir, you really dare to ask for an exorbitant price. the first thing you want is 40% of my profits. "
"the yang family is invincible in qianzhou and will be the guardian of martial arts in qianzhou. it's not too much to ask for your past and future profits. you should know that with disputes everywhere, the dragon doctor will probably be torn apart in the chaos and then swallowed by all sides. so, your best choice is actually us."
yang shenhuan stood up and smiled with confidence.
" director xia, sometimes, you have to be alive first. money is only useful next. " yang ji said meaningfully.
this was a blatant threat to xia ling.
xia ling's brows furrowed. these martial aristocratic families were too overbearing and had gone too far.
she couldn't help but look at long chen.
long chen didn't get up. he only glanced at yang shenhuan and yang ji indifferently and said, " "the two of you should return first. the current you two are not invincible in the qian prefecture.
it's said that the yang family and the nangong family are in a fierce fight recently. you haven't even settled the nangong family yet, and you dare to say that you're invincible in the qian prefecture and want to take a share of the loot. this is hard to believe.
if you're really sincere, then show us your strength first. after all, anyone can say empty words."
