Chapter 2717

The answer was a little unexpected to Su Rui: "who is this person?"

"It's an adopted daughter of my grandfather, although there is no formal adoption procedure." Xu Jingxi said, "she doesn't know cooking, but she studies finance. At present, she has some say in family finance."

"Is your relationship really reliable?" Su Rui asked again, "after all, you haven't seen her for a long time."

"Of course." Xu Jingxi didn't explain the reason, but explained the result: "now, in this family, except for little Wutong, I believe in her most."

"So, this time, you have to take care of your family business and can't hide too far." Su Rui said in a deep voice, "even if it may be a little difficult for you, but..."

After a pause, Su Rui said again, "maybe you can find some clues about the disappearance of your father."

"I see what you mean." Xu Jingxi nodded.

Su Rui has pointed out the direction for her. As for the specific details, Su Rui doesn't need to worry too much. Xu Jingxi is a smart girl. Once she completely shifts her mind, those uncles at home may not be rivals.

"Where are you going this time?" Xu Jingxi said.

"I have something to solve. I want to go to Emei." Su Rui smiled.

Yes, he said Emei, not Zhongyang mountain.

Su Rui didn't say what he was going to do, but Xu Jingxi said, "Emei, it's not far from Sichuan city."

Su Rui smiled, "that's all, but it takes five or six hours to drive from Chuancheng."

"Maybe I can go with you." Xu Jingxi hesitated, "if you have time."

"What happened?" Su Rui suddenly became interested.

He has a black eye for Emei. If Xu Jingxi knows something, Su Rui may not have to work so hard next.

"You may not know that every time Emei holds a mountain party, the chef comes from our family." Xu Jingxi's eyes showed a look of memory: "a supreme elder of Emei, once a close friend of my grandfather, is still alive."

"So it is." Su Rui took a deep breath: "a little more powerful than I thought."

Although Su Rui is not a Jianghu person, he has really read a lot of martial arts novels. He also knows how the words "supreme elder" play a role in a sect - even, this influence and reputation may be greater than the leader.

"Although they are in the mountains, they have high requirements for food materials." Xu Jingxi said, "plus my grandfather's relationship, I'm familiar with a lot once I come and go."

"Have you been there?" Su Rui asked again.

"A few years ago, I was the chef of Emei Presbyterian during mountain meetings." Xu Jingxi smiled, and the look of memory in her eyes became stronger. "Of course, I can't be busy alone. I took the team up the mountain."

"Awesome." Su Rui said sincerely.

Su Rui knows what position Mount Emei will have in the Jianghu world. Many leaders of famous mountains and schools will bring outstanding disciples to participate, which is vast and magnificent.

Of course, the secular media have formed a tacit understanding. Naturally, they will not report on these mountains, so the outside world generally will not know.

"Therefore, if I go up the mountain, I should be able to see the supreme elder of Emei." Xu Jingxi pursed her mouth and said.

Su Rui understood her meaning, so he smiled and remained silent for half a minute without speaking.

In fact, there is no need to be too clear between smart people.

Xu Jingxi's pretty face flushed slightly: "I'm sorry, I know, I'm a little too direct."

Su Rui smiled: "it's better to be direct than to be careless."

Xu Jingxi's meaning is obvious - she needs someone to help her, and Su Rui is undoubtedly the best candidate. If this man can follow his side and help give advice, then there will be no injustice on his trip home this time.

Yes, what Xu Jingxi pursues now is only four words - not too wronged.

"You help me, I help you, one for one." Xu Jingxi's shell teeth gently bit her red lips: "do you think this is OK?"

…………

"OK."

Su Rui agreed to Xu Jingxi's proposal.

"In fact, is this the idea you just thought of?" Su Rui asked.

Xu Jingxi is not very funny. Her pretty face is flushed. After all, this girl was not such a utilitarian before. This idea of "one for one" is also a compulsion under urgency.

"I didn't know you would sit with me, or even take the high-speed rail today." What Xu Jingxi said should be true, "it's really a temporary thought."

"But aren't you afraid I'll eat you?" Su Rui smiled and asked directly.

After all, the two sides have now formed a cooperative relationship, and it is better to point out some doubts directly.

"Not afraid." Xu Jingxi also answered directly.

"You have been in the capital for more than a year, and I believe you know that my reputation is not very good... There are definitely not a few people who speak ill of me in the capital." Su Rui smiled.

"I still have my own ability to distinguish." Xu Jingxi's words undoubtedly show that those who speak ill of Su Rui are not good people.

"Your words make me very happy." Su Rui smiled.

"I can't see that you still care about others' opinions." Xu Jingxi covers her mouth and chuckles.

After the simple exchange of these two sentences, the burden in her heart has been completely put down, and the uneasy feeling has basically disappeared.

"Of course I care, but I can't do it if I don't care." Su Rui said with a wry smile, "otherwise, my reputation in the capital will be completely smelly. Those aristocratic children don't know how to arrange me."

Xu Jingxi smiled and didn't say much.

In fact, not long after she came to the capital, she heard about Su Rui's bloody battle with the five aristocratic families. From the perspective of women, Xu Jingxi certainly supported Su Rui, which was moral.

Until later, there were more and more rumors about Su Rui. Xu Jingxi also knew what kind of energy this seemingly ordinary man had.

It would be great if he could help himself.

Xu Jingxi desperately wants to find her father. Even, she is very likely to be forced by her relatives at home. In this case, the once famous beauty cook in the middle of Sichuan can't help being utilitarian.

Fortunately, Su Rui is not averse to her "utilitarianism".

Moreover, this one for one "exchange" made Xu Jingxi feel that he also had a little place to play.

Taking out his mobile phone and looking at the date, Su Rui said, "I can't stay at Xu's house for long, at most... A week at most."

In fact, Su Rui wanted to only say "three days", but when it came to his mouth, he hesitated and changed his mouth.

"Thank you." Xu Jingxi saw through Su Rui's hesitation: "it may not take a week."

After a pause, she said, "I'll try my best not to delay your business."

Su Rui nodded, then laughed again, "but if I go back with you, I have to have an identity?"

Xu Jingxi blushed and took the initiative to say, "boyfriend and girlfriend."

Her words have a bit of an affectation of calmness.

Su Rui laughed.

"Is it funny?" Xu Jingxi's pretty face reddened this time.

In fact, this is also a last resort.

She was so old that she had never been in love. When she was in adolescence, she had some good feelings for the childhood sweethearts who had grown up together. But these three years, there was no connection, and the good feelings had long faded.

"I'm not laughing at you." Su Rui shook his head with a wry smile, "I'm laughing at myself."

"Why?" Xu Jingxi asked.

"Nothing, I can't tell you." Su Rui said helplessly, with a very obvious taste of self mockery in his words.

In fact, the reason for his self mockery is really simple, that is - he and others play boyfriend and girlfriend a lot of times, which can be regarded as a professional fake boyfriend.

However, Su Rui hasn't said the last half sentence yet - his professional fake boyfriend can basically make the fake play come true in the end.

Of course, at least for now, Su Rui didn't want to have any super friendship with the beautiful cook. The girls around him were already cutting and messy.

Although Emei is five or six hours' drive from Sichuan city, after all, some roads are not very convenient to drive. If you count the straight-line distance, it is still very close.

But more importantly, Zhongyang mountain is closer, and it takes three hours to arrive.

Su Rui felt that he might have some intersection with these two sects in Sichuan city this time.

After a simple exchange with Xu Jingxi, Su Rui began to close his eyes and recuperate.

In fact, meeting Xu Jingxi this time is also a good thing for Su Rui. The Xu family has a deep relationship in Emei, which can make su Rui take fewer detours.

Therefore, Su Rui's previous plan can basically be overturned and restarted.

At the thought of this, Su Rui couldn't help but feel guilty about his old man - he had never seen such a thing done. He didn't give people money and only reimbursed the fare for coming and returning. It was so stingy that he broke the sky.

Walking in the exit passage, a tall woman was waiting at the door.

Xu Jingxi waved his hand in the distance.

Su Rui has guessed that this woman is the adopted daughter of Grandpa Xu Jingxi.

Her name is Xu Xinlan. It is said that she is close to 40, but she looks very young and well maintained. In addition, Sichuan city itself has beautiful women, and her foundation is also very good, so she looks like she is in her early thirties.

Su Rui clearly saw that Xu Xinlan's eyes immediately turned red after seeing Xu Jingxi.
