The CEO's Fiancee, a Stunning Beauty from Heaven
Chapter 40 He Doesn't Like People Saying About Him
Finally came to the gate of Zhao's old house.
The gate is about ten meters wide, and there is a vermilion lacquer gate in the center.
There is a black gold-threaded nanmu plaque hanging on the door, on which are inscribed two large characters:
Zhao Mansion!
When Li Xiaoyao saw this, a look of contempt flashed in his eyes.
In ancient times, only the title of title was the residence of the county king and prince, which could be called a mansion.
Everything else can only be called a house.
"Ha ha!"
Li Xiaoyao looked at the plaque and said, "It seems that your grandfather really regards himself as an old prince!"
"Be quiet!"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Zhao Lingmeng's expression tightened immediately, and he said in a low voice: "He doesn't like people talking about him very much. If he hears this, he will definitely be unhappy!"
"He's not happy to mess with me?"
Li Xiaoyao didn't care, and said casually: "He insisted on seeing me, he's not happy, and I'm not happy either!"
"OK OK!"
"Just say a few words less!"
Zhao Lingmeng was really helpless, so she could only beg in a low voice: "Just treat it as me begging you, okay?"
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Li Xiaoyao didn't want to embarrass Zhao Lingmeng, so he agreed.
Crunch!
Suddenly there was a sound of opening the door.
It's just not the door, but the side door on the right.
A middle-aged man in a black suit came out.
This man looked serious, and his figure was not particularly strong, but he could sense the explosive power hidden in his body. When he walked, he had a long breath and a unique rhythm. He was obviously a warrior.
"Peak of inner strength?"
Li Xiaoyao narrowed his eyes slightly, and thought to himself: "This should be that Uncle Long!"
as predicted!
When Zhao Lingmeng saw the middle-aged man, he immediately showed a smiling face, and called out kindly, "Uncle Long!"
"Miss!"
Uncle Long also showed a smile, and said: "Master is waiting for you in the study, come with me!"
"Ok!"
Zhao Lingmeng nodded in response.
Uncle Long turned around, the smile on his face subsided in an instant, and he turned into a serious look, keeping strangers away.
And from the beginning to the end, he didn't even look at Li Xiaoyao, completely treating Li Xiaoyao as air.
"interesting!"
Li Xiaoyao was not angry about this either.
He is not a warrior, but a Qi refiner, and he also practiced the Nine Nine Profound Kung Fu, the supreme secret code.
At this time, in Uncle Long's eyes, he was completely an ordinary person, with no vigor at all, so naturally he would not attract attention.
"go!"
At this time, Zhao Lingmeng secretly mouthed to Li Xiaoyao, but did not make a sound.
Li Xiaoyao nodded slightly, and raised his heels up.
But then he found that Zhao Lingmeng walked in through the side door with his head down!
This is so abnormal!
After all, she is the eldest lady of the Zhao family who has been upright, but she can't go through the right door when she returns home?
"Her status in the Zhao family..."
"wrong!"
"It's her status in her grandfather's heart, which is far lower than I imagined!"
Li Xiaoyao couldn't help shaking his head secretly.
He actually noticed the dissatisfaction flashing in Zhao Lingmeng's eyes, but the boss didn't say anything, so naturally he wouldn't express his opinions indiscriminately.
After entering the gate, Li Xiaoyao casually looked around.
The so-called Zhao Mansion, as he guessed, was built after Suzhou gardens.
The maids who come and go here are also wearing antique costumes, and they are also very good-looking, no matter how big or small, they can be regarded as beauties.
"This is too extravagant!"
"No amount of money can afford to build it like this!"
Li Xiaoyao suddenly became more skeptical about Zhao Lingmeng's idea of revitalizing the Zhao family.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Zhao Lingmeng was not bad, according to his previous personality, he should have already started thinking about whether to change his wallet by this time!
After walking through three covered bridges and four pavilions, a three-story antique villa appeared in front of you.
This is also the true core of the so-called Zhao Mansion.
Before arriving at the villa, there was no need to do it yourself, the maid had already opened the door.
Entering the villa, apart from the antiques placed everywhere and the famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, there is nothing to say.
After all, no matter how imitated the ancients are, it is impossible to really be the same as the ancients.
In the summer when the temperature is over 40 degrees at noon, which modern person can resist turning on the air conditioner?
A group of people followed the stairs to the study on the third floor.
Uncle Long opened the door first, followed by Zhao Lingmeng and Li Xiaoyao.
As soon as you enter the door, you are facing a large bookshelf filled with all kinds of literary masterpieces, all of which are luxurious hardcover editions, very expensive ones.
"Ha ha!"
Li Xiaoyao disdains this very much.
It's so new, I'm afraid that others won't see it, it's just for show!
In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the other side of the study, there was a white-haired old man lying on a wicker chair with his eyes closed.
This is Zhao Bentai, the patriarch of the Zhao family!
"master!"
Uncle Long saluted respectfully, and said, "Missy is here!"
"Ok!"
Zhao Bentai opened his eyes, stood up, and said with a light smile, "Lingmeng is here!"
Then he looked at Li Xiaoyao, and a look of surprise flashed across his slightly cloudy eyes.
But soon, a look of disdain appeared on his face again.
Zhao Bentai thought he was covering it up very well, but in fact, Li Xiaoyao had seen all of this.
But this old guy is really good at hiding his emotions. If Li Xiaoyao hadn't reached the foundation building stage and his five senses were extremely keen, he might not have noticed it!
"This old man... thinks I'm too young?"
Li Xiaoyao immediately guessed what Zhao Bentai was thinking.
But he didn't care, anyway, his partner was Zhao Lingmeng, not Zhao Bentai.
"grandfather!"
Zhao Lingmeng said hello, then hurriedly pointed to Li Xiaoyao, and said, "Grandpa, let me introduce you, this is..."
"Ha ha!"
"This is Li Xiaoyao, Consultant Li!"
Zhao Bentai showed an extremely hypocritical and kind look, and said: "Consultant Li, you have done Lingmeng a big favor this time, and the Zhao family will definitely not treat you badly!"
"Good talk good talk!"
Li Xiaoyao arched his hands slightly, and said directly: "If Patriarch Zhao really wants to thank me, why not give me a 500-year-old medicinal plant! If possible, ginseng is the best!"
As soon as he said this, Zhao Lingmeng was frightened immediately.
Isn't this guy a bit too self-conscious?
What's more, how can you talk to her grandfather in the way you talk to her?
When Zhao Bentai heard this, his expression changed slightly.
He still remembered that ten years ago, at the first world collection-level ginseng auction, a 320-year-old wild ginseng was sold for a sky-high price of 1000 million!
Today, how much is 500-year-old ginseng worth?
At least 5000 million!
Still priceless!
Isn't this the lion's big mouth?
"Ha ha!"
At this time, Li Xiaoyao suddenly chuckled and said, "Old Patriarch Zhao, I'm just joking, don't worry about it, you guys talk, I'll go out and wait!"
joke?
How dare anyone in this world dare to joke with him?
Zhao Bentai tried his best to keep calm, and ordered: "Long Hai, take him down for a cup of tea!"
"Yes!"
Long Hai nodded in response.
The moment Li Xiaoyao and Long Hai left and closed the door,
Zhao Bentai couldn't bear it any longer, and his face became completely gloomy in an instant...
……
The gate is about ten meters wide, and there is a vermilion lacquer gate in the center.
