A century after retirement, a post-apocalyptic tycoon is forced to find new employment.
Chapter 156 You are not welcome here
Arriving in the capital in the early morning, I didn't go to bed until dawn.
Bai Xiaotang slept until nearly noon, and then gradually woke up from Lin Yuanyang's call.
"Bai Xiaotang, what are you doing? Why don't you come?" Lin Yuanyang's voice was loud and angry.
He had been waiting in the private room of the Beijing Hotel for almost an hour, but none of the Bai family siblings and Ji Ning came.
No one answered the call, which made him almost think that the three people had an accident at Bai's house, and he planned to go to Bai's house to see it in person if they didn't get through.
Bai Xiaotang was confused. After a while, she suddenly realized that today was her brother's birthday. They planned to celebrate her brother's birthday at noon and return to Anhe in the afternoon.
"Sister Ning - we are late!"
Bai Xiaotang shouted towards the attic, sat up, lifted the quilt and rushed under the bed. He didn't even put on his shoes and climbed the stairs to the attic with bare feet.
There is also a bed in the loft, but it is not as big as the bed in the bedroom.
Ji Ning said that Bai Xiaotang was dishonest when sleeping at night and refused to sleep with her, so she ran to the attic holding the quilt.
Bai Xiaotang had no choice but to let her go.
But when Bai Xiaotang ran to the attic, he found that the bed was empty and the quilt was folded squarely.
"Sister Ning?"
Seeing that the window in the attic was open, Bai Xiaotang shouted at the window.
Sure enough, Ji Ning's voice came from the roof, "Here."
Bai Xiaotang quickly climbed up the ladder and entered the rooftop through the window.
Ji Ning was sitting on the swing in the small garden on the rooftop, with a fat blue-gray cat nestled in her arms.
The fat cat's head was only half the length of his body. He lay on Ji Ning's lap with squinted eyes and was enjoying the sun.
"Gray Boy? Why did you run out?"
Bai Xiaotang knew this cat. It was her neighbor's cat. It would run out of the window and go to the roof of her house to bask in the sun, because Aunt Zeng always liked to feed it some fried dried fish.
Bai Xiaotang ran over, scratched Gray Boy's chin, held him in his arms, petted him for a while, and then placed him next to Ji Ning, letting him continue to bask in the sun.
"Sister Ning, it's time for us to leave."
Ji Ning stood up, stretched, and walked towards the window where she came from.
The rooftop of the villa not far away.
A telescope followed her closely.
***
Bai Yusen didn't go to the company for the first time today. He had been sitting downstairs waiting for the two of them to go downstairs.
Bai Xiaotang was a little embarrassed and pretended to look around and asked, "Where's Aunt Zeng? Let's go together."
After taking care of them for so many years, Aunt Zeng has already become a relative of theirs, and she will definitely be invited to this kind of birthday party.
Bai Yusen put away the smart brain light screen and stood up, "Aunt Zeng suddenly went out for something. She said we can't have dinner together this time."
"Pity."
Bai Xiaotang felt a little regretful.
Ji Ning glanced at the stairs leading to the basement and said nothing.
After the three of them left in the car, Aunt Zeng walked out of the basement, her face a little pale, and there was a faint trace of blood on her lips.
What is the origin of that girl?
Why is there so much aggression?
Aunt Zeng is not only a high-level superpower, she is also a dual superpower. In addition to the fire system, she also has the spiritual system.
She can use her mental power to penetrate into other people's hippocampi, enter dreams, control other people's emotions and moods while they are asleep, and get some information she wants.
But just a few hours ago, after she waited for Bai Xiaotang and Ji Ning to fall asleep, she prepared to use her mental power to penetrate, but she encountered a strong mental counterattack.
The extremely terrifying energy almost paralyzed her brain and made her an idiot.
She didn't know if the person with this terrifying energy was Ji Ning himself or someone else.That energy comes and dissipates quickly, leaving no trace behind.
But what she was sure of was that the man showed mercy to her, otherwise she wouldn't be like this just vomiting a few mouthfuls of blood.
Aunt Zeng's heart was beating a little fast, and she wanted to tell Bai Yusen about this immediately, but she was also afraid of angering the superpower.
While she was hesitating, Bai Yusen asked her if she would go to dinner together, but she refused.
"Hey...Aunt Zeng, what's wrong with you?"
Suddenly a lazy voice sounded, causing Aunt Zeng's eyes to become sharp in an instant.
I saw a slender man standing in front of the open French window of the villa.
The man looks good, but his face is pale and his breath is weak.
He was holding a fat gray-blue cat in his arms. The cat's eyes were closed, and it looked a little lazy like a man.
Aunt Zeng's eyes narrowed slightly, her hands hanging by her legs slowly clenched into fists, her skin turned faintly red and glowed with fire.
"What are you here for?"
"I heard that the idiot from the Bai family brought a friend back. Let me take a look..."
The man didn't care about Aunt Zeng's attitude. He walked in through the floor-to-ceiling window and sat down on the sofa, stroking the cat with one hand.
A trace of disgust flashed in Aunt Zeng's eyes, and her voice was cold: "You are not welcome here. Please leave!"
But the man acted as if he didn't hear it. He looked down at the cat in his arms and massaged it with a smile.
"Are you injured internally? It couldn't have been done by that friend, right?"
Aunt Zeng immediately covered it up: "My injury has nothing to do with the eldest lady's friend. She is just an ordinary person. She came back with the lady to celebrate the eldest young master's birthday."
"That's it..." The man raised his head and glanced at Aunt Zeng, half-smiling.
Aunt Zeng looked calm and reminded: "People with super powers cannot attack ordinary people."
The man looked away and smiled, "Aru called. She thinks it's better for the Bai family idiot to stay in the capital, so as not to make some friends who will lead her into trouble and embarrass the Bai family. Aunt Zeng, what do you think?" "
Aunt Zeng threw the rag in her hand on the table with a "pop" sound, and her face was very dissatisfied: "She was the one who instigated the eldest lady to leave the capital, and now she wants the eldest lady to come back. What? When will the head of the Bai family Changed people? The management is really lenient."
The smile on the man's face faded a little, "If Aru wants to be the head of the Bai family, it's not impossible."
"How dare you! Don't forget that it was the Bai family that saved you, not the Chang family!" Aunt Zeng was so angry at these words that she wanted to go forward and kill the man immediately.
But the man didn't take it seriously, with a sarcastic look on his face, "Aunt Zeng, it's true that the Bai family saved me, but it doesn't mean that I will be sold to the Bai family. I promised Bai Jingchuan to protect the Bai family brothers and sisters until adulthood, but it doesn't mean that I will recognize the Bai family. Brother and sister are the main ones. Besides, Aru’s ability is obvious to all, if it weren’t for her, the Bai family would have left the inner city long ago.”
Having said this, the man paused, and his tone was a bit threatening, "Aunt Zeng, Aru has always respected you and treated you well. You should also be more aware of current affairs."
"you……"
The man's eyes were filled with contempt. He stood up and walked slowly to the window, just as he had done when he came.
He walked very slowly, not caring whether Aunt Zeng behind him would take the opportunity to sneak up on him.
Aunt Zeng clenched her fists tightly, and her clenched hands were already wrapped in blazing flames.
But she didn't dare to act rashly, because the man's power level was higher than hers, and she couldn't defeat him even in his prime.
Although such a strong man was favored by the Bai family, he could not be used by the Bai family. Instead, he fell in love with the kind-faced and cruel cousin.
Even for her, he was willing to be the knife in her hand, helping her secretly eliminate the people who hindered her from climbing up.
If the man hadn't been beholden to the Bai family and she had fought to protect him, the Bai family brothers and sisters would probably have become the targets of the cousin.
Zeng's sister-in-law was very angry, but after the man left, a smile appeared on her face.
What if he came over now and threatened her not to help?
The eldest lady's friends are not soft persimmons that anyone can pinch.
She wanted to see how capable the man was of killing the eldest lady's friends.
