Since the game that day, the atmosphere between Song Pingqing and Murong Xue changed.
Specifically, Murong Xue unilaterally initiated a cold war. No matter how Song Pingqing coaxed her or talked to her, she kept a cold face and refused to talk to her.
There are·billions·of·billions·of·a·little·hard·to·appeal.
After seeing the dentist, Song Pingqing knew what Murong Xue was angry about. However, if she was really asked to give up her Sanda career because of this, Song Pingqing was unwilling to do so.
So the relationship between the two of them became strained.
Once a small group has conflicts, people with ulterior motives will take advantage of the situation.
The aristocratic college is like the harem in ancient society, and the elders' business is like the former dynasty in ancient society.
This metaphor may not be appropriate, but there is a connection. A gust of wind blows through the business world and falls into the children's world, which will stir up waves.
If new and old grudges are added, this turmoil will naturally evolve into a bigger storm.
The cause of the incident was that the Hu Nao Group and the Murong Group had recently been fighting for land in the eastern suburbs of Jincheng. The two groups showed off their unique skills and the fight continued.
In the past, the Hu Nao Group had no chance of competing with the Murong Group, but this time it was different.
Unlike the Murong family, who had only one son from generation to generation and could only rely on taking in and sponsoring more children to strengthen their social relationships, the Hudao family had flourished and the in-laws were united with each other, forming a powerful force of their own.
Therefore, although the Hu Nao Group's business is not as big as Murong Group's, its underworld power should not be underestimated.
Perhaps this was one of the reasons why Hu Lailai caused a scene at Murong Xue’s birthday party, but Murong Ba did not investigate further.
Hu Nao's younger sister, Hu Shuo, married the person in charge of the bidding for this project two months ago.
With this layer of nepotism, Mr. Hu successfully got to the table and began to compete with Murong Group in the bidding.
"The Hu family has been focusing on the real estate business in recent years, and all their cash flow is tied to this project." Wu Qiming smacked his lips. He didn't understand why the Hu family was so willing to take such a risk.
"What kind of project can make the entire cash flow of Hu Nao Group be put to use?" Song Pingqing really has no knowledge in this area.
"Ah, my sister told me, but I forgot." Wu Qiming scratched his head, "I only remember the gossip, hehe."
"In fact, it is still a real estate development project. It just has a very good geographical location and is a gathering place for high-tech industrial parks in the future." Although she seemed unwilling to pay attention to Song Pingqing, Murong Xue still answered her question in another way.
"Ah? Isn't this courting death?" Liu Junxi showed an incomprehensible expression, "If someone does something behind this, then they..."
"Of course they know what they are doing. It's none of our business." Wu Qiming sneered, "It's not our family's business. Why should we worry about it?"
Liu Junxi fell silent, staring at the table, as if thinking about something. Song Pingqing, who was leaning back in his chair and looking up at the ceiling, also seemed to be thinking about something.
She rocked her chair and twirled the pencil in her hand.
She had also experienced the most glorious and exciting period of real estate in her previous life. Many big bosses and nouveau riche emerged during this period.
And the various forced demolitions and unfinished building incidents that followed...which one did not cause an uproar in society?
The pencil that was jumping and spinning on my fingertips suddenly fell to the ground.
Song Pingqing sat up straight, leaned over to pick up the pencil that had fallen on the ground, and asked casually, "Hey, what would happen if the Hu family's funding chain was really broken?"
Murong Xue was silent for a long time before she said, "That's a big problem. They have at least a dozen buildings under construction right now."
Song Pingqing's eyes seemed to inadvertently glance at Hu Lailai who was talking to Shen Ci.
"I'm beginning to hope that the Hu family didn't really use all of their funds on this bidding." Song Pingqing sighed and whispered.
"Are you afraid that the Hu family will go bankrupt?" There was a rare hint of arrogance in Murong Xue's tone, and it seemed that she didn't want to talk to Song Pingqing.
"It's common for big families to go bankrupt. When someone falls, someone else will rise."
"That's not what I'm worried about. What I'm worried about is... forget it, there's no way to say it." Song Pingqing thought for a long time and didn't say anything else.
When it comes to unfinished buildings, whoever gets involved is unlucky.
The dispute between the Hu Nao Group and the Murong Group soon came to an end. The Hu Nao Group successfully snatched the food from the tiger's mouth and became very proud. They wanted to call the wind and rain and announce to the world that they could trample the Murong Group under their feet.
This project is huge, and many companies can get a piece of the pie by cooperating with the Hu Nao Group. As a result, Hu Laila on campus has also become popular.
Suddenly, there were a lot more followers.
Hu Lailai immediately became complacent and argued with Murong Xue several times, wishing he could step on Murong Xue under his feet immediately.
I really don't know why she has such deep hatred towards Murong Xue.
I originally thought that she would just show off for two days and then it would be over after the novelty wore off, but for two weeks in a row, Hu Lailai showed no sign of stopping her provocations.
"No, I can't stand it anymore, I want to hit her." Gu Zongnan had the worst temper and was the first to get angry.
"Come back." Song Pingqing grabbed the strap of his sweatshirt with one hand and pulled him back.
"Brother! Brother! People are bullying you to the point of being bullied, why are you still enduring it?" Gu Zongnan cried out in grievance.
"Didn't you see that your sister didn't say anything?" Song Pingqing raised his chin towards Murong Xue.
Murong Xue held the exercise book in her arms without saying a word.
"Sister, sister, say something!" Gu Zongnan continued to make a fuss.
"Be quiet." Liu Junxi brought the lunch box over. "Didn't you see that your third brother went out to socialize and hasn't come back yet?"
"What's the point of waiting for the third brother? He can't beat him, and he can't run away." Gu Zongnian really had no respect for Wu Qiming. He always felt that this man was too good at talking, like a treacherous minister in a novel.
"You have no other way to solve the problem except fighting counterfeiting, right?" Song Pingqing picked up an apple and threw it at him.
Gu Zongnian hurriedly caught it: "What else? Are you still hoping to sue the teacher?"
"Brother Wuxiu, have you reached adulthood?" Song Pingqing suddenly asked.
"Who is Wu Xiu brother?" Gu Zongnian looked confused, "Isn't Big Brother the oldest brother? Why do you call someone else brother?"
"That's true. His birthday is on October 3rd. In order to avoid us celebrating for him, he ran back to school, saying that he had to take extra classes in his senior year."
Liu Junxi interrupted. As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes widened and he turned his head dryly, "You are not."
"Well - why not? Adult brothers and sisters have a legal obligation to raise younger siblings under the age of 18." Song Pingqing said with a hint of pride in his tone.
Gu Zongnan was ignored for a long time. He pressed on Song Pingqing's shoulder and cried out: "Ahhhh, I understood every word you said, why can't I understand what you said together? Ahhhhhhhhh———"
"Eat your apple." Song Pingqing stuffed the fruit in his hand into his mouth.
Gu Zongnan drew circles in frustration.
"What do you think of this idea?" Song Pingqing asked Murong Xue.
"Not good. It will intensify the conflict." Murong Xue still had that indifferent expression, "That's the fiancé he was trying to steal away at my birthday party."
"Tsk, so annoying. What do you think we should do?" Song Pingqing really couldn't think of any good ideas.
"Wait for the third brother to come back." Murong Xue stood still, as if she had everything planned out for herself.
Wu Qiming never came back, and I didn't see him when I got home in the evening.
Song Pingqing couldn't help but send him a text message: "Where are you?"
There was no reply from the other end for a long time. At 10:30 pm, a message was sent back: "Thanks for the invitation. I'm downstairs and just got off the car."
Where the hell did this early Zhihu style come from?
Song Pingqing first replied with a "?" and then followed up with a "Can you speak human language?"
"Go to bed early, big brother. I promise this matter will be resolved by next week." Wu Qiming replied to the message and then there was no further response.
At the beginning of a new school week, Hu Lailai's figure disappeared in the classroom, leaving all the children who wanted to curry her favor confused.
"Aren't you her fiancé? Do you know where she went?" someone asked Shen Ci.
"She got a new role and joined the crew to film." Shen Ci replied, "She left last night and was in a hurry. She may not have had time to send you a message."
Song Pingqing "happened" to pass by and returned to his seat with a complicated expression.
There was no need to think about it! The Wu family must have sent them away, and they had found a "good job" that Hu Lailai would not refuse, and even rushed to take!
For the first time, Song Pingqing realized that the difference in thinking between her and Murong Xue was so huge. Compared with her idea that seemed to relieve her anger but was actually provocative and would worsen the relationship, Murong Xue's idea of lifting people up and carrying them away was obviously more subtle.
Song Pingqing spent the whole day in a daze, and was often distracted even during training. Until she returned home in the evening, she knocked on Murong Xue's door.
"Come in." Murong Xue was not surprised at all that Song Pingqing would come to see her at night.
Murong Xue's room was as cute and pink as ever. This was not the first time Song Pingqing entered her room, but it was the first time that an inappropriate complaint popped up in his mind: "The pinker the profile picture, the harsher the insults."
Song Pingqing walked to the small sofa in the room, hugged the pillow on it, and curled up in silence.
Murong Xue didn't care that she came in and didn't say a word. Seeing that she looked very autistic, she just raised her eyebrows slightly, walked to the chair in front of her desk, and sat down gracefully.
Song Pingqing rested his chin on the pillow and looked at Murong Xue.
Murong Xue picked up the milk on the table and took a few sips before she finally took the initiative to speak to Song Pingqing.
"see that."
Murong Xue's tone was calm, and there seemed to be a hint of pride in it that she couldn't hide. It was as if the two of them had never had any quarrels before.
"If Hu Lailai wants to be proud, he should send her out a few times, and then reorganize the class when she comes back. It will be better if she is out of sight and out of mind."
"It's not that I'm afraid of her, but there's no need to waste my time on someone like her."
Song Pingqing knew that a fool like Hu Lailai was not worth wasting time on.
But after being a child for a long time, sometimes I can't help but want to engage in some emotional disputes.
"Besides, why do you have to provoke her on something she cares about so much? You'll just make yourself an enemy for no reason."
Speaking of this, there was a hint of helplessness in Murong Xue's tone. She was obviously just a child, but she spoke in a strange adult-like tone.
"You and I want to get Brother Wuxiu to start a business together, but think about it, if we provoke a crazy woman like her over this matter at this stage, what will we do if she causes trouble for us before we even start?"
"There are so many people lining up to curry favor with the Nonsense Group right now."
"After all, with her temper and acting skills, there are many people in the entertainment industry who will do anything to achieve their goals. Why should we dirty our hands?"
What Murong Xue did was very simple. First, she flattered him to death, and second, she diverted the blame to someone else.
Song Pingqing had never come into contact with people in this kind of environment in her previous life, so she was inevitably naive about these things, but she was not a fool and could understand the deep meaning of Murong Xue's words.
Rich families often have exchanges of interests. No matter how good their relationships are in private, they always have to maintain the illusion of harmony on the surface.
Once the superficial harmony is disregarded and the two sides become hostile, it must be that one party thinks it can easily tear the other party apart.
Regardless of whether Hu Lailai is a reborn person or a person who traveled through a book, as a crazy and reckless daughter of a wealthy family, no one knows what she will do.
Don't be afraid of the consequences...
Song Pingqing tilted her head and looked at Murong Xue, and she couldn't help but think of two things that happened not long ago.
The first thing was the glass bottle confrontation. After Zhuang Han and several other seniors arrived, Murong Xue made a statement similar to "Tian Liang Wang Po".
The second thing was that Murong Xue replaced the staff on the spot in order to maintain the fairness of the "Turning For You" program.
No matter each time, Murong Xue only took action when she was absolutely sure that the other party had no chance to fight back.
The way Song Pingqing tilted his head and looked at Murong Xue was really cute. Murong Xue didn't say anything else. She drank milk while looking at Song Pingqing thinking.
"You and Gu Zongnian are both very loyal people who do things straightforwardly and unrestrainedly. But there are many things that cannot be calculated only in the short term." Murong Xue sighed silently in her heart and explained to Song Pingqing bit by bit, "Do you know why Dad didn't take action against the Hu family so quickly?"
Song Pingqing shook his head.
"The Hu family's origins were not clean. You have been here for quite some time, and you should know that Jincheng developed by doing foreign trade. The Hu family was originally engaged in smuggling."
"To put it bluntly, the Hu family has connections in both the black and white worlds. Even if they retire from the underworld, they often do charity work to whitewash their image, but it can't change the memories of those who live longer."
The girl's voice was clear and crisp, and she calmly talked about the past secrets of the Hu family: "Who can be sure that his family has no influence in the underworld now? Hu Lailai is the eldest daughter of the main branch of the Hu family this generation."
"Last time you had a conflict with her, it was Gu Zongnan who took the lead. If you really do it according to your method this time, I can take the lead for you. But Pingqing..."
"What if there's no one left to support you one day?"
“What if the next time you clash with someone smarter than Hu Lailai?”
When Murong Xue said this, she didn't look like a seven-year-old child at all.
