Li Qingshi looked at Chu Zhou sideways while walking, and said in shock:
"Who would have thought that, Captain, you have been promoted to the Awakened in less than two months, and you have been promoted to the Extraordinary level so quickly?"
"And, in the Jidao Colosseum, set such a brilliant record."
"Even those kingly families, big chaebols, and even the Valkyrie family, who spent countless resources and meticulously cultivated monsters, would probably feel inferior if they knew your real situation."
"It's just a little achievement, not worth mentioning." Chu Zhou smiled lightly, very calm.
Soon, Li Qingshi brought Chu Zhou and others to an antique garden and sat down in a well-arranged pavilion.
Li Qingshi gracefully picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Chu Zhou and the others respectively.
"Qingshi, is this clubhouse your family's property?" Chu Zhou asked curiously when he saw that there seemed to be no other guests in the clubhouse except them.
"Yes!" Li Qingshi nodded calmly.
"Hey! Miss Qingshi, your family is really rich. In the base city of Guangdong, every inch of land is expensive. Just building a club here will cost an astronomical figure."
"I was wrong... I used to only know that Miss Qingshi is rich, but I didn't expect you to be so rich."
Shi Meng sighed deeply.
Chu Zhou and Ling Zhan nodded in agreement. They did not expect the family behind Li Qingshi to be so rich.
"It belongs to our family. It's not mine!"
Li Qingshi said to Shi Meng angrily.
"...Even so, Qingshi, you should not be short of money, right? With your identity and background, why did you choose to go to Jiangcheng to attend high school? And to obtain the genetic potion, you worked hard in the elite trials?"
As Chu Zhou said, he looked at Li Qingshi curiously.
Ling Zhan and Shi Meng also looked at Li Qingshi curiously.
Although they had been friends with Li Qingshi for three years, Li Qingshi never revealed her true background to them.
If Li Qingshi hadn't invited them to join her birthday party in Guangdong Base City this time, they wouldn't even know that Li Qingshi's home was in Guangdong Base City.
Of course, everyone has their own secrets.
They didn't blame Li Qingshi either.
Li Qingshi didn't hide anything, she smiled lightly and said:
"Our family is indeed rich, and the family can indeed give me a lot of favors... However, the big family also has the rules of the big family. To enjoy the benefits of the family, you must also make enough contributions and sacrifices to the family."
"Our Li family's rules, no matter who is in the family, if you have been relying on the family's favor and resources, then you must obey the family's arrangements in the future, including work, marriage, and even performing some dangerous tasks..."
"If you can be self-reliant and self-growth without relying on the family's grievances and resources, then you will be relatively free."
"This is fair. If you want to get more from the family, you must obey the family's arrangements; if you want to be self-reliant, grow by yourself, and get what you want, then the family will also support and give you more freedom."
"I don't want others to control my destiny, so I chose to leave the Guangdong base city and go to Jiangcheng!"
At this moment, Chu Zhou and the others finally understood why Li Qingshi went to Jiangcheng.
"It seems that even the children of big families can't help themselves sometimes!"
Chu Zhou sighed.
Of course, he didn't mean to pity those family children.
After all, no matter what people say, the starting point is much higher than that of ordinary people.
All roads lead to Rome, and people were born in Rome.
The conditions of civilians and family children are still incomparable.
What's more, in a situation like Li Qingshi's, if she doesn't want to accept the family's arrangement, she can choose her own path.
And civilians basically have no choice.
Suddenly, a noise was heard outside the garden. It seemed that some staff members were preventing others from entering the garden, but they were scolded.
Li Qingshi frowned when she heard the voice from outside the garden.
She received Chu Zhou and others here today, and she has clearly explained to the staff not to let outsiders disturb them.
Who is going to break in now?
Soon, a woman wearing a black gauze hollow backless dress, high heels, and a golden snake-shaped necklace around her neck, presenting a thick and dark wind, brought three other young men and women in.
The woman in the black veil backless skirt, after entering the garden, quickly scanned the garden with her pair of sharp red phoenix eyes, as if looking for prey.
When she saw Chu Zhou's figure, her eyes lit up instantly.
"Miss Qingshi, I told you that you are here to entertain guests, but Miss Qingman still wants to come in, I can't stop her!"
A staff member said to Li Qingshi with a bitter face.
When Li Qingshi saw the woman in the black veil backless skirt, she knew why the staff couldn't stop the approaching people, so she waved her hand to tell the staff to back off.
"Cousin Qingman, I am entertaining guests here today, what do you want?"
Li Qingshi frowned and looked at the woman in the black gauze halter skirt.
Li Qingman smiled slightly, shifted her eyes slightly away from Chu Zhou, and looked at Li Qingshi:
"My good cousin, we had a good relationship when we were young, why are we so far away now?"
"It's been a long time since you came back to the family, and you haven't come to visit me. It really makes my cousin sad!"
"My cousin is different. When I learned that you are receiving guests here, I came to see you immediately."
As she spoke, she walked over in high heels.
Moreover, he walked towards Chu Zhou, and unceremoniously sat down on the chair beside Chu Zhou.
She put one hand directly on Chu Zhou's shoulder, and her body leaned sharply towards Chu Zhou.
With a glance of Chu Zhou's eyes, he easily saw a large area of beautiful scenery.
"Hello Chu Zhou, my name is Li Qingman?"
She looked at Chu Zhou with burning eyes, as if she was looking at prey, her eyes were full of aggression.
Before Chu Zhou responded, Li Qingshi suddenly stood up from her seat and looked at Li Qingman sharply:
"Cousin, this is my friend, please show some respect!"
"Did I disrespect him? I just want to make friends with him, and you won't stop that!"
Although Li Qingman was talking to Li Qingshi, her eyes were staring straight at Chu Zhou's eyes, and her red phoenix eyes flickered, making people daydream.
Shi Meng and Ling Zhan looked at this scene with strange faces.
This cousin, Li Qingshi, is a bit too aggressive, is she trying to seduce their boss?
Seeing this scene, Li Qingshi's face turned ashen.
Chu Zhou looked at Li Qingman playfully. This woman is interesting, her eyes are full of aggression and possessiveness. Does this mean that she regards Chu Zhou as a prey?
The woman just called out his name directly.
Undoubtedly, this woman probably already knew some of his deeds. She didn't know the specifics, but at least she knew that he had won fifty games in a row in the Jidao Colosseum.
However, what he didn't understand was, where did this woman get the courage and support to treat him as a prey?
Chu Zhou gently opened Li Qingman's hand on his shoulder, and said lightly:
"We're not very familiar yet, so we shouldn't be too close."
"All familiarity starts from unfamiliarity. If we communicate a few times, won't we be familiar?"
In the process of withdrawing her palm, Li Qingman gently slid her fingertips across Chu Zhou's palm, speaking meaningfully.
"puff!"
Shi Meng was stimulated and took a sip of tea, the hint was too obvious.
He really couldn't bear to see this kind of situation... Why didn't any beautiful women treat him like this?
The corner of Ling Zhan's mouth also twitched slightly, forgive him for his lack of knowledge, he has never seen such a proactive woman.
Moreover, this woman is not an ordinary woman, she belongs to the same family as Li Qingshi, and her background and status must be amazing, she shouldn't be like this.
Li Qingshi's head was covered in black lines: "Cousin, if you do this again, I'll be really angry!"
"Okay, okay! Isn't this because you are afraid that your cousin will snatch the man you fancy? Cousin... really wants to snatch it!"
Li Qingman's boldness was beyond everyone's imagination. This time, she walked directly to Chu Zhou's side and kissed Chu Zhou's face, leaving a bright red lip mark.
"Hey, Chu Zhou, I've taken a fancy to you!"
"I'll find you later!"
She laughed wantonly, as if proud of the imprint she left, then she got up and walked out of the gazebo, gathered with the three young men and women she had brought, and walked out of the garden.
However, before she left the garden, she stopped suddenly, turned her head and said a word to Li Qingshi:
"Cousin, Chu Chen from the Chu family, has returned from the wilderness area, and will come to see you soon."
After speaking, she didn't stop in her footsteps, and her figure quickly disappeared.
Chapter 83 Go directly!
When Li Qingshi heard Li Qingman's last words, she couldn't help but frown, and a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes.
"Tsk tsk, Miss Qingshi, you cousin is so passionate. The first time I saw the boss, I kissed him, and even confessed my love to the boss..."
Shi Meng clicked his tongue in amazement, looked at Chu Zhou who was wiping his lips, and jokingly said:
"The boss is really, he doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade at all. Miss Qingshi, the cousin, is also a beautiful woman, and she must have a lot of money. She is white and beautiful."
"If there is such a beauty who takes the initiative to express love to me, I will definitely accept it on the spot..."
"How do you say that? You don't know how to be soft when you are young, so you mistakenly plant seedlings with youth! Such an opportunity must not be missed!"
Li Qingshi cast a sideways glance at Shi Meng, and said with a sneer:
"Instead of you? I guess you will die immediately!"
"There is no pie falling from the sky. My cousin's affairs are troublesome! If you mess with her, ten lives are not enough for you!"
Shi Meng's scalp felt cold when he heard it: "So scary?"
Chu Zhou and Ling Zhan also looked at Li Qingshi, wanting to hear what's so special about this cousin Li Qingshi.
Li Qingshi seemed a little embarrassed to speak, and after a moment of silence, she sighed:
"She...is also a poor person!"
"After all, she is my cousin. There are some things I can't explain clearly."
"In short, you know that things about her are very troublesome. It's best not to have too much contact with her. Otherwise, you really don't know how to die."
Chu Zhou and the others immediately understood that this might involve the secrets of the family behind Li Qingshi, and it was inconvenient for Li Qingshi to say.
They didn't ask again.
Chu Zhou and the others continued drinking tea.
However, drinking tea this time is destined not to be peaceful.
"You also dare to stop me?"
A cold shout came in from outside, followed by a burst of screams.
Then, a young man wearing a combat uniform, carrying a spear, and gloomy eyes strode into the garden.
And behind the young man, there were four warriors in combat uniforms.
Whether it was the previous youth or the other four warriors, they should have just returned from the wilderness.
There was still a strong murderous aura left on them.
Hearing the screams outside, Li Qingshi knew that the young man had injured the blocking staff and forced his way in.
Immediately, she couldn't help being furious, and stared coldly at the young man:
"Chu Chen, what are you doing? The Qingteng Club is the property of our Li family. How dare you act recklessly here?"
Chu Chen didn't seem to listen to Li Qingshi's words, his eyes fell on Chu Zhou, Ling Zhan, and Shi Meng, and asked deeply:
"who are they?"
"What does it matter to you?" Li Qingshi said displeased.
