I rely on emoticons to lower my intelligence

Li Zhirong came out of the detention center.

He insisted that he only wanted to redeem the stolen goods, and the owner was his uncle.He was not involved in the theft of cultural relics.

That group of international thieves kept their mouths tight and did not betray the client.The current evidence can only prove that after they stole the exhibits, they contacted the owner's nephew Li Zhirong.The confessions of both parties can be compared with each other, which makes sense logically.

Under the premise of not being able to obtain new evidence, the Painting League agreed with the Li family to release Li Zhirong on bail.

On the same day that Gu Shanhai knew the result, someone came to treat him to dinner.The inviter was Li Zhirong's uncle, Li Tianxiang, the current head of the Li family.

As soon as the people he sent arrived, all the bodyguards of the Li family who had been guarding the vicinity for a long time, originally sent by Li Tianrui, withdrew.

What is this for?

Through the window, Gu Shanhai saw that the car sent by the other party had already parked downstairs.It is even more magnificent than the luxury car that picked up Pei Chengping last time.

"Dinner? Who is there?" Gu Shanhai rushed to open the door in front of Pei Chengping, blocked the door, and stood between Pei Chengping and the visitor, first to find out the other party's purpose.

"The head of the family and the two nephews are not outsiders." The visitor's words were very subtle.

Knowing that the Li family brothers would be there, Gu Shanhai guessed that this matter had something to do with the bet.The brothers could hide it from the Painting League, but they couldn't hide it from their own family.With such a big commotion, I dare not hide it.

"Do you mind bringing one more person?" Gu Shanhai asked.

On the opposite side, Doutu Shi, who was wearing sunglasses, showed a clear expression and called out his name accurately.

"Gu Shanhai." The other party called, "The head of the family has told me that if Master Gu wants to have a banquet together, it will be a great honor."

"Then I won't be polite." Gu Shanhai relied on his own strength and had the confidence not to panic.

He opened the car door and sat in the back row with arrogance and arrogance. Not to mention, the car is comfortable and the Patriarch of the Li family will enjoy it very much.

The man in sunglasses opened the door on the other side and invited Pei Chengping into the car.Sitting in the co-pilot's seat, the back of his head was facing the two of them unpreparedly. It seemed that this posture did not look like going to a Hongmen banquet.

Gu Shanhai wanted to say to Pei Chengping: Don't be afraid, he is here.He will protect Pei Chengping.

But before he said that, he felt that there was a message on "Magpie Bridge Immortal".He opened it and saw that it was a message sent to him by Pei Chengping:

——Don't worry, nothing will happen.

Gu Shanhai turned his face to look at Pei Chengping.Obviously close at hand.The other party used "Magpie Bridge Immortal" to communicate with him.This feeling is very exciting.

Gu Shanhai remembered the spy movie that he had just watched with the other party at home a few days ago.According to the plot of the movie, the protagonist goes deep into the villain's lair, and there will be a fierce decisive battle.However, there is a gap between reality and the movie, they are now more like a pair of dogs who cheat on others behind their backs.

[Be cute.jpg] Gu Shanhai responded with an emoji.

Simple chat has no activation effect, and emoticons are just emoticons, without other purposes.

Pei Chengping gave him a screenshot back.It was the scene where the opponent was beating Xiong Shitian madly in the arena.

The wording is [super strong.jpg], as if to say that I will protect you.

Gu Shanhai replied with a nod of joy.But after posting, he always felt that something was wrong.He should be protecting the other party, why do you feel being protected by Ping Ping again?

Why did he say again?

Delusions!

The car drove smoothly all the way, and it didn't take long to reach the destination.Li Tianxiang's residence is not nearby.This is after dotting the painting to activate the painting, resulting in the effect of shrinking the ground into inches.

The Li family's house is huge.It is not a garden villa, but a garden with winding paths and well-arranged pavilions.Such a beautiful residence, hidden in the noisy city, quiet in the middle of the noise, is a testament to the financial resources of the Li family.

They were the last guests to arrive.The head of the Li family was already sitting around the dining table with his two nephews, but Li Tianrui was nowhere to be seen.The person who was supposed to be Pei Chengping's future adoptive father was excluded from this family feast.

As soon as Gu Shanhai and Pei Chengping arrived, Li Tianxiang smiled and said, "Everyone is here."

He looks somewhat similar to the father of Li Jia Shuangsha, but more elegant, wearing a Tang suit and wearing a jasper finger wrench on his left hand.The style of the old-fashioned patriarch perfectly blends into the ancient background of the old house.

Compared with him, Li Jiashuangsha was wearing a suit, which was out of tune with the surrounding scene.

Li Zhirong sat on a special chair, supporting his body so that he would not slide off the chair due to the weakness of his paralyzed legs.He pouted, with a face of swallowing his anger, as if he didn't dare to get angry in front of his uncle.He didn't even bother to squeeze a smile on his face.

Compared to Zhutou's younger brother, Li Zhiyi's city is deeper than his.Not only did he smile, but he didn't force a smile on his face. He also greeted him actively, "Cheng Ping, sit here." He patted the seat beside him.This chair is sandwiched between him and his uncle.

According to closeness, it is more suitable for him to sit.Let it out at this time, as if releasing some kind of signal in advance.

Gu Shanhai didn't have time to think about it, Li Zhiyi pointed to the seat opposite him and said, "Gu Shanhai, you're here too. Please take a seat."

No matter how Li Zhiyi tried to hide it, Gu Shanhai could hear gnashing of teeth from the tone of the other party calling his name.

Their "ally" relationship is too plastic.

Gu Shanhai didn't follow the other party's invitation to take a seat, and took the initiative to lean over, occupying the seat "assigned" to Pei Chengping by the other party.In case the other party has evil intentions and hurt Pei Chengping.

"I haven't thanked you two brothers for the three days of hospitality. I haven't seen you for a few days. I miss you. We are close." Gu Shanhai took a seat, pointed at the seat opposite Li Zhiyi, winked at Pei Chengping and said, " Pingping, sit over there."

Suddenly a cold snort came to his ears, but Li Zhirong couldn't hold it back.

Li Zhiyi winked at the other party.Li Zhirong coughed again, pretending to have a dry throat, picked up the cup in front of him, and took a sip of tea.

After everyone was seated, Li Tianxiang spoke.

"I'm Li Tianxiang." He said.This name is too famous, as long as it is mentioned, everyone knows that he is the current family of the Li family, so there is no need for too much introduction. "I watched Zhiyi and Zhirong grow up. You are familiar with each other, and you will live in harmony in the future. Cheng Ping—"

"Uncle Li." Pei Chengping shouted.

"It's too early to call uncle." Li Tianxiang said with a smile.

Say these words with a loving tone and a smile.Smiling tiger?Gu Shanhai thought to himself.

But because of these words, Gu Shanhai was secretly happy.The opponent is the powerful person of the Li family.If he opposed Pei Chengping's entry into the Li family, even if the Li family's Shuangsha's father wanted to recognize Pingping as his adopted son, the matter would be messed up.

Gu Shanhai was in a good mood, he scanned the other people, and found that the faces of the Li family brothers were turning blue, and they were not at all happy.

how?Ping Ping almost wanted to be brothers with them, and the two of them got into a fight to the point of kidnapping him and threatening each other.Seeing that they can't be brothers now, they still look like ghosts.

Is there any reason for this that he doesn't understand?

"If you want to call him, call him Uncle." Li Tianxiang said.Gu Shanhai felt that the pause in the middle of these words was not intended to make Pei Chengping call the other party's uncle.But what do you call uncle?Do you want to call the other party's big brother?

In order to appear young in address, the seniority of this family is too chaotic.

Gu Shanhai complained inwardly.The brothers of the Li family have their own ghosts and have ulterior motives.Only Pei Chengping was the most at ease present.

"Uncle," he called.

"Okay, okay." Li Tianxiang nodded approvingly.It's just that he changed his name, and he didn't see what's good about him.

Gu Shanhai finally noticed something was wrong.

Even if it wasn't for the Hongmen Banquet, Li Tianxiang's attitude would have been too good.

He quietly opened "Magpie Bridge Immortal" and took the initiative to poke Pei Chengping. "You knew him before?"

"It's the first time I've seen you." Pei Chengping quickly replied.

Gu Shanhai breathed a sigh of relief.See you for the first time, okay!It means that the two have never been in contact with each other before.

"This old man is smiling, and he has no good intentions at first glance." Gu Shanhai sent another message to discredit the head of the Li family.

Frankly speaking, Li Tianxiang looks to be in his early forties, younger than his younger brother Li Tianrui and knows how to take care of himself.This "old man" has no conscience.

However, Gu Shanhai's eyes were sharp. After sending this message, he saw the corners of Pei Chengping's mouth curl up.

The other party was snickering.

If you don't agree with him, the other party should frown at this time.So Pei Chengping agreed with him, this old man is very bad!

Taking advantage of the gap before the food was served, Li Tianxiang continued to greet: "Gu Shanhai?"

"Yes." Gu Shanhai didn't call him uncle like Pei Chengping did.He is thousands of years older than Li Tianxiang, so he can't let the other party take advantage of him.

"Okay, okay." Li Tianxiang nodded with a smile, and said these words again.I don't know what to do.Gu Shanhai thought to himself.

Wouldn't the other party only say "good, good"?

A strange feeling rose in Gu Shanhai's heart.It is not easy to sit firmly as the head of the Li family.

"Today's family dinner is to celebrate the loss of "The Merman Song" and its return to its original owner. Zhirong contributed a lot to this matter and suffered grievances, but it has passed." Li Tianxiang said.He turned to look at Pei Chengping: "I also heard an interesting story about a bet."

The audience suddenly fell silent.

"This story is over after hearing it. It will not be heard by outsiders."

It turned out that this meal was to beat everyone to shut up, Gu Shanhai understood.

It's right to think about it, the family ugliness is not publicized.Li Zhirong's redemption of his own lost things is the same as hiring international thieves to steal the owner's private collection, but the definition of the two is completely different.The latter will go to jail.

Now the sufferer doesn't pursue it, and he doesn't care about it. Gu Shanhai is eager to erase the stain of betting from Pei Chengping, and it will have nothing to do with it in the future.It never occurred to him to spread the word.

Of course, the Patriarch of the Li family is not a good person, he doesn't care about it now because he has already thought about it.Li Zhirong had a chance to adopt his name and become the next patriarch, but now it's completely lost.

Because Li Tianxiang's next sentence is - "Zhirong, next time there will be such an interesting story, let uncle know as soon as possible."

"Uncle, I..."

"It's all a family, let's have a feast."

"..." Li Zhirong's apology was held back.Both Li brothers had bitter expressions on their faces.

We are all a family, but there are differences in the closeness of a family.Calling Dad is not the same as calling Uncle.Don't say anything else.From the perspective of inheritance alone, the uncle has no heirs. His property can be divided by his parents and wives, but not by his nephew.It will be different after adoption.

The cooked duck flew!

It stands to reason that the Li family taught the juniors a lesson, and there were two outsiders watching the fun, so there was something wrong with this occasion.

But they all came, the family didn't think there was a problem, Gu Shanhai was happy to eat melons beside him.

After understanding the other party's intentions for this meal, Gu Shanhai was relieved.Li Tianxiang knew about the bet, and he called them over for dinner, apparently intending to seal it up with gentle means, and their benefits would be indispensable later.

This table dish is very rich, regardless of the ingredients or the chef's craftsmanship.However, the people present were not focused on eating, so the beautiful scenery and delicacies of mountains and seas were wasted.

Gu Shanhai tasted every dish, not greedy.He felt that compared to the dishes made by Pei Chengping himself, they were more to his liking.

The meal did not last long.

After the meal, Li Tianxiang wiped his hands with a hot towel and was not in a hurry to see off the guests.With a pleasant face, he said: "This Li family's ancestral house has a history of hundreds of years. Since you are here, I will show you around."

He told Pei Chengping and Gu Shanhai that Li Zhiyi got up quickly and took the initiative to express: "Uncle, how can I bother you? Let me do it for you."

But Li Tianxiang flatly refused.

"You take good care of Zhirong. I walk to digest food, and I am the only one who is most familiar with this house."

... "Yes." Li Zhiyi was taught.Hear the beating in the other party's words.

There are some things that he can't do for him.No matter how familiar this Li family's ancestral house is, he is not the owner.For the uncle, he is also a guest.

In this bet, not only did my younger brother lose his chance, but he also lost his uncle's heart.

"It's getting late." Gu Shanhai didn't want to stay in the Li family any longer, he wished that after this meal, the relationship between Pei Chengping and the Li family would be completely severed.Li Tianxiang's overly gentle attitude sounded the alarm in his heart.

But what Li Tianxiang said made him change his mind.

"Gu Huajun, "Song of the Shark Man" is just one of the collections, and there are other works in the collection here."

"Gu Huajun?" Pei Chengping looked at Li Tianxiang with an inexplicable expression.But Li Tianxiang's gaze stayed on Gu Shanhai.So in the end, the eyes of the two fell on Gu Shanhaishao.

"Gu Huajun, surnamed Gu, styled Zhongxiu." Li Tianxiang said, "Time is merciless, so many geniuses, such a peerless painter, even his name has been annihilated in history. Zhong Xiuhuajun became famous for his poems of Bu Liancheng. Few people have verified his surname. His surname is Gu."

The corner of Gu Shanhai's mouth curved unnaturally: "Patriarch Li is worthy of being a collector of "Song of the Shark"."

Li Tianxiang smiled and said: "Few people know that 600 years ago, the ancestors of the Li family changed their names and surnames in order to escape the flames of war. They were not Li at all."

"What's the last name?" Gu Shanhai asked.

"The surname is Bu." Li Tianxiang's eyes flashed, "Hua Jun Bu Liancheng's 'Bu'. The Li family is a descendant of the Bu family."

Gu Shanhai's expression cracked.
