In the Zhao Family, a lot of people saw Li Guangwu and Xu Taiping walking side by side, talking nonstop.
"What luck! He just got kicked out of the Zhao Family and he already managed to get on General Li's high branch. This Xu Taiping's ability at climbing high branch is really strong." A Zhao Family member whispered.
"How else could you have entered our Zhao Family? However, for people like you who rely on your own connections to rise up in power, you won't be able to go far. Because, for people like them, they need to rely on one mouth only to have no real ability. " Another Zhao Family member said in disdain.
"All of you shut up!"
A scolding voice came from the side. Then, Zhao Xianglu appeared in front of the Zhao Family members, who were talking bad about Xu Taiping behind their backs.
"Incense Furnace elder sister!" The surrounding people lowered their heads in greeting.
"As members of the Zhao Family, do you think you are giving the Zhao Family a lot of face by talking about the right and wrong of others behind their backs?" Zhao Xiangreu asked angrily.
The surrounding people all lowered their heads in shame.
"What we said was the truth!" Someone could not help but ask.
"Fact my ass!" Zhao Xiangreu said angrily, "When did Xu Taiping enter the Zhao Family? Do you know what he did before he entered the Zhao Family? He has entered the Jianghu City in a year, and now he has over ten billion dollars worth of properties in his hands. The Martial Arts List that you guys read about every day is made by his company, and among the three Heaven Ranking masters in China, one of them is the one who knows how to climb high branches, Xu Taiping. Don't think that he really cares about the status of our Zhao Family. Not to mention you, even if I am separated from the Zhao Family, I am nothing. Do you think we, as sparrows, who have lived in the Zhao Family for our entire lives and can't even fly, have the face to mock Xu Taiping, the eagles that are already soaring in the sky? "
The surrounding people were left speechless by Zhao Xianglu's words. They were indeed like what Zhao Xianglu had said, because they were from the Zhao Family, they placed themselves in a very high position, and even looked down on Xu Taiping, who had disguised himself as a member of the Zhao Family by some means. In the end, they forgot that before he entered the Zhao Family, Xu Taiping was already a king of the Changjiang River basin, and even if he didn't have the status of a member of the Zhao Family, his status was something these people could never hope to achieve.
"All of you, get lost and think about it. Other than using your identity as Zhao Family members to scare people, there's nothing else you can do. If you can do better than Xu Taiping, I, Zhao Xianglu, will be the first to apologize!" Zhao Xianglu said.
The surrounding people all clasped their hands and retreated.
"Sigh!" She didn't know what to say. The reason why she insisted on having Xu Taiping come in and pay her respects was partly because she and Xu Taiping were friends, but also because she had a vague feeling that the Zhao Family was involved in all of this. She didn't dare to guarantee that the Zhao Family would continue to prosper, because anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the Zhao Family was going downhill. In this situation, having a friend like Xu Taiping was definitely much better than not having a friend like Xu Taiping.
Zhao Xiangshu couldn't understand why the ancestral hall would want to exterminate Xu Taiping. He might not have the blood of the Zhao Family, but with his status, it would be beneficial for the Zhao Family if he stayed.
A sense of unease crept into Zhao Xianglu's heart. This feeling of unease made her more confident in herself. She wanted to get closer to Xu Taiping, because that was the only way to ease her uneasiness.
Outside the Zhao Family.
There were still many people queuing up, many of them were the same people who had been queuing up with Xu Taiping before. When they saw Xu Taiping and Li Guangwu appear together, they were shocked for a moment, and then when they saw Li Guangwu and Xu Taiping chatting happily, they were even more surprised, and began to discuss why Xu Taiping was so close to Li Guangwu.
"You are now … Were they at the Central Military Commission? Not in the southern Chinese military sector anymore? " Xu Taiping asked as they walked. He didn't know much about Li Guangwu's situation, but he knew that the current Li Guangwu was much stronger than the one from South China.
"Yes, he was transferred to the military committee." Li Guangwu nodded, he did not explain too much, that was his personality.
Xu Taiping didn't know much about the military committee, but from the reactions of the people around him, he had already come to a conclusion.
"It seems like your future is looking promising!" Xu Taiping said with a smile.
I won't do too much just because my future is good. Of course, I won't do too much just because my future is not good either. I'm a soldier, so all I have to do is obey orders. Li Guangwu said.
"General Li, is there anyone else besides you in the military committee?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Several, I guess. Li is a big family name after all, but there's basically no connection between them. "What's wrong?" Li Guangwu asked.
"Nothing, just a casual question." Xu Taiping shook his head, then took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and gave one to Li Guangwu.
Li Guangwu took the cigarette in Xu Taiping's hand, looked at it, then put it in his mouth and took out a lighter from his pocket.
"I have fire." Xu Taiping smiled and handed the lighter over to Li Guangwu. Li Guangwu shook his head, he lit his own lighter, lit up a cigarette for himself, and then extended his hand in front of Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping smiled coyly, put the cigarette near the lighter's flame, and took two big puffs.
When the people standing in line saw this scene, they were dumbfounded.
General Li actually gave Xu Taiping a cigarette? What kind of background did this Xu Taiping have? Was it worth General Li to do so?
"Thank you." Xu Taiping thanked him.
Li Guangwu naturally knew that Xu Taiping wasn't thanking him for lighting a cigarette for him, but for giving him face.
"You have made us Chinese soldiers proud when we were overseas. This is what we should do. If that Li Jiang Shan dares to do anything to you, come find me." It's true that he has money, but money is useless in front of soldiers. " Li Guangwu said indifferently.
"No need. If I can't even deal with a single Li Jiang Shan, how can I survive in the martial arts world?" Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"I heard about Li Jiangshan insulting you." Li Guangwu said.
"It's nothing." Xu Taiping shook his head.
"I understand the whole thing, too. You seem to be standing up for your friend." Li Guangwu said.
"En!" Xu Taiping nodded.
"It's nothing to be humiliated for your friend to stand up for you. At least, if it were me, I would be willing to do it for my friend. " Li Guangwu said.
"These are all small matters." Xu Taiping grinned and said, "The world looks down on me. Li Jiang Shan insulted me, and the Zhao Family didn't even want me. So what? Aren't I still alive and well? Three years, in five years, regardless of whether it is the people or the Li family, even if it is the Zhao family, I will one day stand at a place where everyone needs to look up to me. Of course, this does not include my friends. "
"I look forward to it." Li Guangwu laughed and said, "What plans do you have for the future?"
"I don't have any plans, I still have a few things to take care of. I'm abroad, so I'll be flying abroad in a while." Xu Taiping said.
"I'm not sending off the old man anymore?" Li Guangwu asked.
"As long as you have good intentions. Besides, the Zhao Family has treated me like a jackal, a tiger, a leopard. If I give it to him again, it would seem like I am a fake. Forget it." Xu Taiping waved his hand.
"Alright, I've been out for a long time too. I'll be leaving first." Li Guangwu said, he extinguished his cigarette, threw it into the trash can beside and turned to leave.
Xu Taiping waved to Li Guangwu, but he didn't seem to be in a hurry, as he slowly finished smoking.
Xu Taiping finished the cigarette. As far as he was concerned, all of the Zhao Family complex was already over.
Xu Taiping threw away his cigarette and walked into the parking lot.
After a while, a Buick slowly drove out of the parking lot of the Zhao family.
As Xu Taiping drove, he looked in the rearview mirror at the classical, magnificent building. For some reason, he suddenly thought of Zhao Gang.
He wondered where Zhao Gang was and whether he was doing well.
The car drove towards Beijing Airport and arrived there about an hour later.
Xu Taiping parked the car in the basement parking lot, then pulled his luggage towards the elevator.
The elevator reached the international departure level. Xu Taiping quickly passed the security check and entered the terminal.
More than an hour later, Xu Taiping boarded a plane to Perfume Nation.
The capital, for Xu Taiping, might not be coming back for a while.
He looked out the window at the city, which was getting smaller and smaller, and sighed with emotion.
Last time he came here, he had called Zhao Taixu his brother, but this time, he wasn't even a member of the Zhao Family. Last time he came here, he had called Zhao Taixu his brother, but this time, he wasn't even a member of the Zhao Family.
Although he did not die, Zhao Taixu had no explanation for the attack on him. He only told Xu Taiping that he would wait for him in the treasury of the Rothschild Family, which surprised Xu Taiping. Xu Taiping always felt that there was a layer of mist covering the entire Zhao Family, and everything in the Zhao Family was slowly decaying into dust.
