Chapter 23: Arrogant at the front and respectful at the back
In the hall, the three parties took their seats.
As the owner of this place and the host, Shen Xiang sits on the main seat, while Pei Xuanjing and the people in charge from the Liu family sit on the left and right.
"Second Master Liu, this is Brother Pei."
"Brother Pei, this is Master Liu Chengshi, Second Master Liu."
Shen Xiang introduced each other to the two of them.
The two of them nodded, but they didn't show much enthusiasm.
Shen Xiang didn't agree with this either. After the introduction, he kept silent and left the situation to the two of them.
Liu Chengshi looked at Pei Xuanjing, who had a calm face, with a little displeasure in his eyes, "Pei Xuanjing, don't you want to give my Liu family an explanation for what happened before?"
Pei Xuanjing looked calm. , "Explain, what explanation do you want? Wasn't today's meeting proposed by the Liu family? I thought it was the Liu family who wanted to give me an explanation."
"Hmph, you hurt someone for no reason and you still want to deny it?" Liu Chengshi scolded.
"Haha." Pei Xuanjing sneered, "Injury for no reason? Isn't it because Liu Ruilong wanted to show off his violence and hurt others, so I fought back in self-defense?"
Liu Chengshi looked unhappy, his eyes were fixed. He stared at Pei Xuanjing as if he wanted to eat someone.
Pei Xuanjing's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes gradually became murderous.
Seeing that the two of them were at odds with each other after just a few words, Chen Xiang on the side had no choice but to come out to smooth things over.
"You two, since you are sitting here today just for the sake of reconciliation, why are you so at odds with each other?"
Pei Xuanjing glanced at Chen Xiang, "I'm not trying to stir up trouble, this guy Mr. Liu is so domineering that he would force anyone to say he is white."
Liu Chengshi didn’t give in at all, “Liu can still compare with you, but it’s just a few words of conflict that can break someone’s hand muscles. Liu can’t learn such a method.”
< br>Pei Xuanjing sneered and didn't answer. He just looked at the other party with mocking eyes.
Being looked at by Pei Xuanjing like this, Liu Chengshi was filled with anger, but his face showed no trace of it, and he did not give in at all in his momentum.
The scene fell silent for a while, and the entire hall was so silent that it was as if you could hear a pin drop.
After a while, Liu Chengshi suddenly burst out laughing, "Young Master Pei is indeed young and promising. Those bastards in my family are completely different from Pei Shaoxia."
So completely different. The different attitudes not only surprised Pei Xuanjing for a moment, but also Chen Xiang, who was very familiar with Liu Chengshi's style, was not sure what the other party meant.
Just when the two of them were still a little surprised, Liu Chengshi said to Chen Xiang: "Today, please bear witness to the third shopkeeper, and I will apologize to Shaoxia Pei on behalf of my nephew. In addition, my Liu family will reward you with a thousand taels of silver, and the Centenary Mountain ginseng One as an apology, I hope Pei Shaoxia doesn't mind."
Pei Xuanjing was confused by Liu Chengshi being so arrogant and respectful, but he didn't reveal too much. He just nodded with a cold face. Too enthusiastic.
Liu Chengshi didn't care at all, and said to the two of them, "That's all for today, the gifts will be given tomorrow. It's getting late, Liu said goodbye!"
After that, he didn't give it. The two of them had time to react and left immediately.
Pei Xuanjing looked at the other person's leaving back, frowning, and thinking quickly in his mind. He had already known about the character and style of Liu Chengshi Master Liu Er Ye from Chen Xiang's mouth.
That is, the other party is not an easy person to get along with. As a confidant of the head of the Liu family, he holds a high position in the Liu family and has a tough style. He has never been the type to accept weakness.
So based on the clues Pei Xuanjing obtained from several life simulations based on the other party's arrogant behavior today, I'm afraid the other party has already made a choice and decided to send someone to take action, so he doesn't want to waste time with Pei Xuanjing here. Only then can it be explained.
Thinking of this, Pei Xuanjing raised his head and met Chen Xiang's eyes. The two looked at each other's expressions and understood that both parties were aware of Liu Chengshi's plan.
Liu Chengshi walked out of the Shen Chamber of Commerce's manor, followed by everyone in the Liu family.
"Second Master, how are you?" a white-haired old man asked in a low voice.
He is a steward of the Liu family and a confidant of Liu Chengshi.
Liu Chengshi didn't say anything, but boarded the carriage directly. However, just as he entered the carriage, he suddenly paused and said to the steward behind him: "Go and inform them that it's getting dark and it's time to move."
Hearing this sentence, take charge of things Knowing what the other party meant, he whispered: "Old slave, I understand."
Liu Chengshi nodded, "I will let the carriage drive slowly and wait for you at the gate of the city. Tell them to be quick with their hands and feet."
"Yes." The steward nodded.
The steward got on his horse and headed in the opposite direction to the city. Liu Chengshi's carriage, with a group of more than a dozen people, slowly and leisurely headed towards Anping City.
In the carriage, Liu Chengshi had an undisguised murderous intention on his face, "It's hard to persuade a damn ghost with such good words. If you are seeking death yourself, don't blame me for being cruel."
Originally, he came this time not for a cruel purpose. Pei Xuanjing must be put to death.
After all, a twenty-year-old sixth-grade warrior, not to mention Anping Mansion, is considered a genius in the entire Northwest Path. Therefore, even if the other party hurts Liu Ruilong, the Liu family has developed to this day and is not without tolerance. As long as Pei Xuanjing is willing to surrender to the Liu family, they will not mind a genius joining him.
Unfortunately, from the beginning, Pei Xuanjing's extremely uncooperative attitude and his young and promising attitude made Liu Chengshi very unhappy.
As the person in power of the Liu family who is almost only under the head of the family and the clan elders, when Liu Chengshi faces the master, the master will give him some dignity and will not be so tit-for-tat.
Therefore, Pei Xuanjing undoubtedly made him very angry, so he had a rough attitude and put on a pleasant attitude.
Because from that moment on, Pei Xuanjing was already a dead man in his heart. He felt very magnanimous by giving a little face to a dead man.
What he just arranged for the steward to do was to send someone to assassinate Pei Xuanjing.
It doesn’t matter if a sixth-grade warrior who is less than twenty years old has outstanding talent. A dead genius is no longer a genius.
When a lion fights a rabbit, he must go all out. In order to kill this genius, he just asked the steward to send out a fifth-grade master and two sixth-grade masters. Such a lineup is absolutely foolproof.
But suddenly, Liu Chengshi's face became frozen, because he found that the traveling carriage suddenly stopped, and the guards around the carriage that were supposed to follow seemed to disappear. There was no sound. In the silent night, he could only hear the horses panting. The sound made his heart sink.
Who wants to kill me?
Sorry, I went drinking with friends yesterday and didn’t save the manuscript. I just typed out the first chapter, now go and write the second chapter.
