A few minutes later.

Zhao Biqian and Xu Taiping sat on the floor.

The wooden floors around them were already riddled with holes. The nearby stands and seats seemed to have experienced the baptism of a hurricane, with broken fragments everywhere.

"You … "How could you change, become even stronger than a few days ago?" Zhao Bi asked while panting heavily.

Xu Taiping's face was swollen, but there was a smile on it as he said, "That's why I'm a genius, a genius who doesn't need to work hard at all."

"Why?" Zhao Biqian asked with a frown on his face.

"No reason." Xu Taiping shook his head. He had his trump cards, but he would not tell Zhao Biqian.

"Could it be that you will naturally become stronger? This is impossible, this is completely against common sense! " Zhao Buqian asked with a puzzled expression.

Xu Taiping smiled, but he did not say anything. In fact, what Zhao Buqian said was more or less true, but it was not entirely true.

No one could deny that he was a genius, but even the man who had personally led him didn't know that under the appearances of many geniuses, there was an even more talented person. And this much more talented person was the main reason why Xu Taiping could become so strong in such a short period of time.

"If you can maintain this rate of becoming stronger, maybe... One day, you will really stand at the peak. " Zhao Buqian said.

"At that time, would you still be qualified to be your son-in-law?" Xu Taiping asked.

Zhao Buqian's expression changed slightly. He asked, "Do you know why Xiaohua broke up with Li Jiapeng?"

"The Zhao Family has such a big information network, won't you check it yourself?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Where can I use the Zhao Family's information network? I'm just an ordinary member of the Zhao Family's team. Tell me, please." Zhao Buqian said.

"How should I know? Maybe I saw through Li Jiapeng's ugly expression. Anyway, this is a good thing, don't you think?" Xu Taiping said.

"Sigh, it's indeed a good thing." Zhao Buqian nodded and said, "As long as Little Flower and Li Jiapeng break up, this will be a good thing."

"Yeah, I just don't know who will be next." Xu Taiping sighed.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Buqian asked.

"Nothing, your daughter is not simple." Xu Taiping laughed.

"Taiping, let me tell you something that would dig out your heart." Zhao Buqian said.

"What do you mean?" Xu Taiping asked.

The Zhao Family is not a family that can be challenged by ordinary people, but after so many years, there are still many people who can challenge the Zhao Family, and there are only two outcomes to that: one is death, and the other is becoming a friend of the Zhao Family. Many people who have a grudge against the Zhao Family will become a friend of the Zhao Family after knowing the Zhao Family's past and meeting some interesting people in there. The Zhao Family is a very unique family with unique magical powers, so I hope that you can become a friend of the Zhao Family. Zhao Buqian said.

"I also need the ability to be a friend of the Zhao Family. Otherwise, if they slap me into smithereens, it'll be too late for me to be friends with them." Xu Taiping laughed.

"I have a feeling that with a temperament like yours, you can definitely become friends with those people inside. You might even become friends with Old Man Zhao one day. Of course, this is only if the lordmaster is still alive. " Zhao Bi said with a hollow laugh.

"Old Master Zhao, how old are you?" Xu Taiping curiously asked.

"About a hundred years old." Zhao Buqian said.

"A hundred years old?!" Xu Taiping's eyes widened. This Old Master Zhao had lived for a long time!

The old man has always lived a happy life of grudges and favors, has always lived up to the standards of the heaven and earth, has always lived up to the expectations of his friends, has lived a free and easy life, has also lived well, and has lived to the age of a hundred is also very normal. It is said that the old man's body is very strong and healthy right now, and he can eat three bowls of rice every day. Zhao Bi laughed dryly.

"We'll talk about it when we get the chance." Xu Taiping pouted. To be honest, he had no interest in a 100-year-old old man, because normally when he was 100 years old, he would lose a lot of his bodily functions. Even if he was living well, he probably wouldn't have any common topics to talk about.

Of course, nothing was absolute. Xu Taiping still remembered that old shoemaker he met in the capital a few years ago. He seemed to be in his nineties, but he had a strong physique.

"I need to find a chance to buy a few pairs of shoes in Beijing." His cloth shoes were pretty much broken, and now he was wearing ordinary sneakers. Under such a powerful burst, the soles of his shoes were already worn out, and the shoes of that old shoemaker in the capital could usually be worn for months, and he even bought a few. But the key point was that they were not expensive, as he had never mentioned it before, Xu Taiping did not think of buying shoes like that.

The two chatted for a while before they left, leaving behind this extremely dilapidated gymnasium, waiting to shock those who didn't know when they would come here.

Returning to the guardhouse, he looked at the door and saw that the woman was still there.

Xu Taiping sighed, walked out the door, walked to the woman's side and said, "That's enough, no one will come to the door to beg."

"It's okay, I'll just wait here. Big brother, go do what you need to do. If I'm blocking the school, tell me and I'll move." The woman said with an embarrassed smile.

"Are you going to just sit here? What if he didn't show up? I've never seen that person before. It's possible that he's just passing by. " Xu Taiping said.

"Even if there is only a tiny bit of hope, I will not give up!" The woman shook her head. The word 'firmness' was written on her old face. She had seen this kind of firmness from another woman before, and it could even be described as' Su Xiangzi '.

Xu Taiping didn't think there was any point in this, because he was sure that the child would not appear again, but Xu Taiping didn't say anything more. Perhaps what supported her to keep looking for him like this was just this, over and over again.

Just like a person addicted to the lottery, even though he knew the chances of winning the lottery were very slim, he was still willing to foolishly buy it.

There had to be a dream, what if it came true?

Xu Taiping chose to leave. There was not much he could do. For the woman in front of him, letting her wait in silence was perhaps the most helpful thing she could do.

Early the next morning, when Xu Taiping arrived at the school gate, he found that woman still there.

She sat down on the bottom of the flower bed, placed the bag behind her, and leaned against the top of the flower bed.

The morning sunlight fell on her body, and the fatigue on her face could clearly be seen.

Her body was covered with a shabby down jacket. The down jacket was not big, and her body was curled up inside the down jacket.

There weren't many people coming and going, because it was only a little past six.

Many people noticed this woman. The woman who came out from the other side of the street to sell breakfast took a cup of soy milk, an egg and some steamed buns and placed them at her feet.

She didn't wake her up because she knew she must be tired, so she slept until she woke up naturally.

Around seven o'clock, she woke up.

She seemed to set an alarm clock for herself and naturally woke up when the students were about to come to class. Then she saw the breakfast at her feet and picked it up without thinking too much about it.

Perhaps in the years she had spent searching for her child, she had come across many kind-hearted people.

More and more people gathered at the school gates. Xu Taiping sat in the guardhouse, looking at the students who came and went, as well as the woman.

Today was already Friday. If he didn't see the beggar today, then there was almost no need to think about Saturday. Because class was off on Saturday, the beggar would not come to the school gates to beg unless he was an idiot.

A day passed, and just as Xu Pingping had expected, the beggar still hadn't come. Her frail and frail body rose up into the morning sun, and she sat down next to the setting sun.

She carefully and carefully looked at everyone, hoping to see the figure of her child, but the result made her very disappointed.

The afterglow of the setting sun cast a long shadow over her. She carefully finished the box of food delivered by the peddler across the street, then threw the box into the trash can. After that, she carried her bag to the guard room.

Xu Taiping thought she was here to say her goodbyes, but she just came to deposit her bag, then she borrowed a broom from Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping didn't understand why she wanted to borrow a broom. When he saw her helping the peddlers across the street clean the floor, he suddenly understood.

This was a person who knew how to repay a debt of gratitude, but the heavens didn't favor her because of this. She waited an empty day, and then fell into a daze at the school entrance, falling asleep along with the darkness of the night.

Today was Saturday. Yesterday evening, many students had already left school.

Xu Taiping drank until 4: 00 AM and then slept in his room upstairs until 2: 00 in the afternoon before taking a taxi to Jiangyuan University.

At the entrance of Jiang Yuan University, the lonely yet persistent figure was still there.

"It's the weekend, there aren't many people at school. If you want to wait, you can come back on Monday." Xu Taiping said.

"Who knows?" The woman stroked her long hair and smiled awkwardly. "Since I'm going somewhere else, I might as well wait here. I'm used to waiting."

Xu Taiping sighed and walked into the school without another word. Mobile users please browse and read, better reading experience.
