Douluo's Beastmaster

Chapter 22 Recruitment from Tiandou City

"Da da da!"

As the carriage passed through the noisy streets and entered the quiet East End, it was as if I had passed through the middle of two worlds.

This is a place where the rich and powerful live, which is different from the noisy streets.Quietness is the eternal theme here.

"We're home, Master!"

As the carriage stopped, Shi Qing, who opened his eyes and finished his meditation, stepped out of the carriage with Ling Xue at his side.Seeing that the only person greeted at the door was the butler, Shi Qing's heart continued to sink.

"Steward Li, where is dad now?"

"The master is waiting for you in the study, young master."

Shi Qing, who walked to the study under the leadership of the housekeeper, kept thinking about what happened to make his parents so urgent.Every time she went home, in order to express her longing for her, her mother Chen Hongyu would ask a dozen maids to receive her at the door.Although I rejected it very much, I felt that this was all a face-saving project and of no use.But Chen Hongyu always agreed verbally.But he refused to repent.

Moreover, his father Shi Minghao has never directly asked him to meet in the study. After all, the study is where he talks about business. He feels that talking to him here is a bit embarrassing for him as a father.

Everything unusual at home at this time left Shi Qing's sinking heart without any hope of improvement.

"Hey, hey, hey, shouldn't the script I'm taking be about a rich kid who's family is in trouble? Will my parents ask me to pack my bags and run away next? Then I'll do '30 years in Hedong, 30 years ago' In the year of Hexi, don’t bully young people into being poor?’ Damn it, this is all a stupid script.”

Walking to the study door, Butler Li knocked on the study door and stepped back.Shi Qing, who was awakened from his thoughts by the knock on the door, looked at Butler Li's gesture asking him to go forward, and walked forward. As soon as he reached the door, he saw Chen Hongyu opening the study door.

"Xiao Qingqing, come in quickly, Butler Li, guard the door and don't let anyone get close."

Shi Qing, who was pulled into the study by his mother, looked at Shi Minghao who was smoking and meditating at the table, and consciously found a place to sit down.Hearing the sound of Chen Hongyu closing the door, the pensive Shi Minghao finally came back to his senses.

"Xiao Qingqing, how busy have you been recently?"

Listening to his father's toneless voice, Shi Qing rolled his eyes and said eagerly: "Okay, dad, stop being poor. What happened to you in the Imperial City?"

Hearing Shi Qing's eager greeting, Shi Minghao smiled unconsciously: "You know everything? Yes, you have been smart since you were a child. If it weren't for your ideas, your mother's chamber of commerce would not have developed so fast. I was just thinking about how to tell you!"

After reflecting on himself with a smile, Shi Minghao suddenly changed to a serious expression and said seriously: "I went to the capital this time to see the prince. The prince sent someone to come to the capital to talk to me. chat."

"Prince? Xue Qinghe? What does he want from our family?" Shi Qing was shocked when he heard Shi Minghao's words.Xue Qinghe?Doesn’t he know if others don’t know?That was Qian Renxue, the future angel god.

Ignoring Shi Qing's question, Shi Minghao continued to describe the previous events.

"After I arrived in Tiandou City, I met him under the arrangement of the prince. I was thinking about what the prince meant along the way. I thought of all the situations, but I didn't expect that he was actually wooing me. He also promised me After he takes the throne, he will restore the title of Marquis to our family."

"At that moment, I was extremely scared. I was worried that there was some fatal mission for me to perform. I was thinking about whether I should give up this old life to help you earn back this Marquis. I didn't expect that the prince actually talked about it. You, later I realized that the prince was not wooing me but wooing you."

After listening to Shi Minghao's words, Shi Qing felt a sense of absurdity: "Isn't it right, dad? What can I win over?"

Although Shi Qing knew that sooner or later he would become the strongest person on Douluo Continent, Qian Renxue couldn't possibly know that.In official records, he is just an 'ordinary person' with level 7 innate soul power.

Shi Minghao, who understood what Shi Qing meant, said seriously: "When the prince was talking about you, he kept saying that your talent is unparalleled throughout the ages. Does he know that you are a diamond fighting spirit in the great fighting spirit arena?"

Upon hearing Shi Minghao's question, Shi Qing did not answer immediately, but fell into deep thought.Shi Minghao and Chen Hongyu, who knew he was thinking, looked at each other and did not urge him, but waited for him to think.

After waiting for a long time, Shi Qing, who finished his meditation and opened his eyes, said seriously to Shi Minghao, Chen Hongyu and others: "I have thought carefully about all the incidents, big and small, in the past three years, and sorted out the events in the Great Soul Fight in detail. All the behavior in the field should not reveal anything. Even for the few girlfriends I made outside, I didn’t leave any contact information for them. I sent people to deliver letters to them unilaterally. "

Although Shi Qing talked about important things seriously, Shi Minghao and Chen Hongyu always felt that something unseemly was involved.

"Wait a minute, when did you have several girlfriends? Do they know each other?" Chen Hongyu, a blind student who finally found Hua Dian, yelled at Shi Qing loudly.

Hearing Chen Hongyu's scolding, Shi Qing waved his hands innocently and said helplessly: "Please, is the focus now on my girlfriends outside? Aren't we discussing the rise and fall of the family?"

Shi Minghao, who was originally serious, suddenly laughed, looked at Shi Qing and said with a smile: "Well~, this matter suddenly isn't so important anymore. To be honest, I'm also very interested in your girlfriends."

Shi Qing, who was stabbed in the back by his father, only felt his scalp numb under the fiery eyes of his mother, Chen Hongyu.In his mind, he blamed himself for being led by the strange atmosphere to talk about everything, and said with a forced smile: "I am a fan I met when I was fighting for Soul. Because I have good qualifications, I gave him a few pointers, and then I became familiar with him. Girlfriend is just a joke, besides, how can I have a girlfriend when I'm wearing a mask?"

"I see."

Seeing Chen Hongyu's nodding gesture, Shi Qing, who thought he had concealed it, quickly picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea to calm down his shock.

Chen Hongyu, who was nodding and thinking carefully, suddenly said: "In other words, you took advantage of the admiration of other people's beautiful girls, deceived their feelings and ran away, and you controlled the hanging by remote control!"

"puff!"

Shi Qing was so shocked that he spat out a mouthful of tea on himself. While bending over and coughing hard, he complained crazily in his mind, what kind of cruel summary ability was this.

Chen Hongyu, who usually cared so much about Shi Qing, did not go over to help him clean up this time. Instead, she looked at Shi Qing like a scumbag.

Shi Qing, who had calmed down and stopped coughing, looked at Chen Hongyu's scrutinizing eyes. He was so worried that he didn't dare to look at her and kept looking away.

Looking at Shi Qing who didn't dare to look at her, Chen Hongyu knew that her guess was probably correct. She didn't expect that she had taught a "Sea King" and she was immediately laughed out of anger. She was about to blame him for his bad behavior but she didn't say anything. The exit was interrupted by Shi Minghao's words.

"Okay, the relaxation time is over. I just didn't want you to be so serious and just wanted to lighten the atmosphere. Now let's get down to business."

Chen Hongyu opened her mouth as she originally wanted to speak, but in the end she didn't say anything.He just stared at Shi Qing with his eyes and judged him with the anger in his heart.

Seeing that his father had changed the subject for him, Shi Qing ignored Chen Hongyu's angry eyes and continued to say seriously: "The disguise I made when I was in the Great Soul Fighting Arena was very good, and it shouldn't have been exposed from there. If there are any flaws, If so, it must have been when I just got the second soul ring and got angry and fought with others in school."

"I exposed my thousand-year soul ring at that time, because I didn't expect to be famous in the Great Soul Fighting Arena in the future, so I didn't care about it at the time. Later, after you agreed to let me go to the Great Soul Fighting Arena, I went to them one by one and issued a silence order. Maybe there was a flaw at that time. After all, it is impossible for two great soul masters whose second soul ring is a thousand-year soul ring to appear at the same time."
