Chapter 2716

Xu Jingxi didn't think much, because she also knew that Su Rui's words were a sincere compliment, and she could see the sincerity from the young man's clear eyes.

However, Su Rui's explanation made Xu Jingxi blush.

Because Xu Jingxi has heard of some programs in the name of food and some female anchors who only wear aprons.

Because of her excellent hardware conditions, Xu Jingxi has also experienced a lot of chasing of the opposite sex. She can't understand the eyes of those men anymore, but it's completely different in Su Rui... It seems that his eyes are always clear and won't be covered by some desire.

Although this guy just made a joke, it will not affect Xu Jingxi's impression on him.

Therefore, now Xu Jingxi is a little puzzled. Su Rui, who looks very reliable, why do he often hear people say that he is a rogue, a local ruffian and a rogue?

Xu Jingxi said secretly in his heart, "hearing is false, seeing is true. It seems that rumors are also very unreliable."

Yes, after two contacts, Xu Jingxi now regards Su Rui as a very reliable person.

"Where are you going?" Su Rui asked.

It's rare to see Xu Jingxi choose to leave the courtyard.

Looking at the way she was carrying a trolley case, Su Rui had guessed that the girl would probably return to Chuancheng.

"Go home and have a look." Xu Jingxi said, "what about you?"

Today, she still wears a simple ball head without the cover of the chef's hat. This hairstyle sets off her temperament perfectly. It is simple and not sloppy, but there is a delicate taste in casual.

"I'm also going to Chuancheng." Su Rui laughed, "what a coincidence, I can have a companion on the way."

"Which carriage are you in?" Xu Jingxi heard Su Rui's words, and a flash of light flashed across her eyes.

"Car 1." Su Rui said.

Xu Jingxi took out his ticket, looked at it, and replied with a smile, "me too, neighbor."

This is too coincident.

Su Rui said, "it's not boring to be able to sit next to beautiful women on the way."

Xu Jingxi chuckled and said with a smile, "OK, I can teach you how to cook on the way."

Su Rui scratched his head. "Although I always think I'm a genius, I may never catch up with you in cooking."

Xu Jingxi is not modest at all on this point: "I also agree with you."

After chatting awkwardly for a few minutes, they checked in together.

They bought business seats. Because the price was relatively expensive, there were only two of them in the small carriage with only five seats.

When the car door closed, Su Rui obviously felt Xu Jingxi a little restrained.

After all, it's hard to spend more than ten hours in this space with such a man who is "not very familiar".

However, Xu Jingxi behaved gracefully. Although she was restrained, she was trying to prevent Su Rui from discovering this restraint.

"Actually, I'm more nervous than you." Su Rui directly pointed out: "after all, you are a beautiful woman, and my face is so thin."

Xu Jingxi burst into laughter. With this joke, all the tension on her body disappeared.

After a brief chat, Su Rui still asked the main question: "why do you suddenly want to go back?"

He didn't say that he had probably guessed Xu Jingxi's family background, but the latter's ice snow intelligence must understand this. Between smart people, there is always no need to have too much explanation.

Xu Jingxi pulled her hair around her ear. When she heard Su Rui ask, she obviously had a frozen look in her eyes.

Su Rui clearly noticed this expression, and then smiled and said, "it seems that your attitude is not very firm."

"Really not very firm." Xu Jingxi didn't ask Su Rui how to see his mind, but said, "if Qin Chuan hadn't persuaded me to come back and have a look, I think I might not know how long I would stay in the capital."

"In fact, Bai Qinchuan's statement is correct, but such an approach may not be suitable for you." Su Rui's eyes flashed, "besides, he should come with you."

…………

Bai Qinchuan asked Xu Jingxi to return to the family to have a look, but he didn't come back with her. Su Rui was a little surprised by this.

After all, it may not be easy for Xu Jingxi to face the so-called relatives in the family alone.

The girl spent most of her life in the kitchen, so it was really a little difficult for her to deal with those intrigues.

Therefore, this time back, she can be less aggrieved, which is thankful.

With Bai Qinchuan's IQ, it is impossible to predict this, but he still made such a choice.

"He can't leave." Xu Jingxi said, "moreover, Qin Chuan said that if I went back alone, perhaps the performance of those uncles and uncles might be more authentic."

"More realistic." Su Rui narrowed his eyes and smiled, "I have to say that Bai Qinchuan is a very good word."

Xu Jingxi nodded.

"However," Su Rui said again after a turn of words, "however, in my opinion, you have clearly seen the true side of your family, and you don't need to meet again."

Xu Jingxi, as a family child with a very high succession, has lived in a corner of the capital for the past two years, and has almost completely cut off contact with the family industry in Sichuan city, which can be seen by anyone with a clear eye.

"So, you think..." Xu Jingxi wanted to talk and stopped.

"I don't think it's meaningful for you to go back this time." Su Rui said, "in addition to looking at the attitudes of other family members, it seems difficult to find other valuable things."

Xu Jingxi sighed softly, and then said, "my father has been missing for more than three years."

In fact, Su Rui has also heard the news. After all, the gold lettered signboard of the Xu family is so loud that you can understand a lot by arranging people to have a little understanding in Sichuan.

Xu Jingxi's father, Xu Xingmin, suddenly disappeared when he was on a business trip to attend an exchange meeting three years ago, and there has been no news. In the past three years, the police have not stopped looking for it. Unfortunately, there has been no progress.

Su Rui said, "I know that when Uncle Xu disappeared, the fight in your family has reached a white hot stage."

Hearing Su Rui's use of the word "white hot", Xu Jingxi's expression still exuded a gloomy color.

"Yes, but it's not white hot. At best, it's a turbulent undercurrent." Xu Jingxi shook his head, "I didn't adapt to that kind of life, so I moved out, searched all over China for more than half a year, and finally settled in the capital."

"Do your relatives know the location of the courtyard?"

Xu Jingxi nodded, "although it's a small yard, the price will be up to 200 million, but it's grandpa's roll call to pass on to my father, so they can't move, they can only watch."

Su Rui nodded and asked, "your parents... Just you and little Wutong?"

"Yes, just our sisters, who didn't have a boy." Xu Jingxi nodded, "my father, like me, stays in the kitchen all day studying ingredients, regardless of everything else. In the past, he had a nickname, called 'kitchen madman'."

"Kitchen madman..." hearing this nickname, Su Rui couldn't help laughing.

Only those who devote themselves to studying in a certain field can achieve ultimate success. Xu Xingmin's reputation is not small, so the more time he spends in the kitchen, the more vulnerable he is in the fight for family property - how can a person who is obsessed with giving full play to all kinds of delicious ingredients be good at fighting for power and profit?

Xu Jingxi then said, "moreover, my father only cares about the kitchen at home and hands over all the management rights to his uncles and aunts. Therefore, he has almost no idea about how many branches he has opened at home and even how many assets he has."

Su Rui nodded, which was the predictable result.

In fact, it is not appropriate to describe Xu Xingmin as a kitchen madman, and it may be more appropriate to describe him as a "kitchen madman".

"My father married late, gave birth to me at the age of 42, and gave birth to little Wutong a few years later, when he was almost 50. Therefore, even if there are only two girls in our family, my father is an old girl." Xu Jingxi's eyes turned red when he said this: "he is almost 70 years old now, and he doesn't know..."

Choked.

In fact, before Xu Jingxi finished speaking, Su Rui fully understood that Xu Xingmin had disappeared for nearly three years. At such an age, he had disappeared for so long... The result was unthinkable.

The more time goes by, the more Xu Jingxi has to prepare for the worst.

"Don't be too sad. You have to find an answer." Su Rui took out a paper towel and handed it over.

Xu Jingxi wiped her eyes. The paper towel was slightly damp, and her eyes were still red.

However, she dares to wipe her eyes like this. If those who have eyeliner, it is estimated that this wipe will be all spent.

Xu Jingxi stays in the kitchen all year round and certainly doesn't make up. However, maybe born in Sichuan, her skin is extremely delicate, and even the pores on her face are so delicate that she can hardly see.

Nowadays, girls rarely have the courage to be completely plain, but this is not too difficult for Xu Jingxi.

In fact, through these simple words, Su Rui can judge that Xu Jingxi's mother has passed away.

She stayed in the capital for so long, and her father disappeared for more than three years. If her mother was still alive, she could not be put in her hometown.

"Do you know much about the family's industries?"

Su Rui asked.

However, in fact, after he asked the answer, he had guessed the specific result - Xu Jingxi had left home for so long, and I'm afraid she was also black eyed about what the so-called relatives of the family had done with their property.

"I don't know much." Xu Jingxi said, "but someone knows that I can trust her."
