C348 Goodbye to Old Zhu



C348 Goodbye to Old Zhu

The brat was getting impatient. These people truly did overdo things and even dared to search him. They were simply not giving him face. Back in Africa, he had gone wherever he wanted to go. He had never been examined. Back then when he was overseas, he led a glorious and awesome life. It was unknown how many people had to give him face, but after returning home, everything had changed.    

    

"Brother Gui, I will go in with Brother Wang Xiao. You can wait for us outside." Chen Dagaang said to the little ghost.    

    

"What? You actually told me to wait outside? Are you looking down on me, looking down on me?" The kid had the urge to fly into a rage.    

    

He felt that Chen Dagaang would not give him face and actually let him wait outside. Only his subordinates would wait at the door.    

    

Wang Xiao understood his intentions. He was worried that the little imp would lose respect for the Elder Zhu after seeing him. Elder Zhu was a stubborn person. In his mind, a junior must treat their seniors with respect, and at the moment, they should be respectful to their seniors. If the little ghost saw Elder Zhu, and had such a carefree look, the Elder Zhu would definitely not be in a good mood.    

    

"Brat, just wait outside. It's fine if you go in."    

    

"Brother Xiao, I really never thought that even you would look down on me. If I knew earlier, I wouldn't have come back then." The little demon had opinions towards both Wang Xiao and Chen Dagaang.    

    

"There are no beauties here anyways, there's no use for you to go in, and most of them are just a bunch of old men." Wang Xiao said.    

    

Hearing that there were no beauties in front of you and only a bunch of old men, the little ghost was very disappointed.    

    

"F * ck your grandpa! Such a luxurious place and there's only a group of old men living here! This is too depressing!" One day, when I find dozens of beauties, I will bring them to you and drive out all of the old men in there.    

    

The more the little ghost spoke, the more excited he became, and he even gestured with his hands.    

    

"Brat, just wait outside obediently. Don't stir up trouble, I'm going in." Wang Xiao said.    

    

"Brother Xiao, you can go in. I won't go, there are no beauties inside, just a group of old men. When you see those old men, tell them on my behalf to move out as soon as possible and leave this place to me. In case we meet in battle, don't say that I don't respect the elderly and the young. "    

    

The little ghost had a very arrogant expression, as if he was going to bring a group of people to rush in at any time and drive out all those people inside.    

    

As Wang Xiao and Chen Dagaang entered the Villa, he did not want to hear this brat's nonsense.    

    

Entering the villa, Wang Xiao discovered that there were a few corners where a strong Qi could be felt. It was as if a few Qi's were charging towards him at the same time, and then retreated like the tides.    

    

He remembered that the last time he came here, he hadn't discovered these auras yet, but this time, he could feel these powerful auras. Maybe it was because last time, Wang Xiao's realm was not Innate Level, but Acquired Stage, so he could not feel the existence of these auras.    

    

However, it was very normal because the people who lived here were people with status and position. They would definitely have experts protecting them in the dark. The experts that appeared on the surface were not true experts. Only those who were hiding in the dark were the real experts.    

    

Wang Xiao was certain that even if over a dozen Innate Stage experts barged in, they would definitely not be able to make it back. After discovering the hidden experts, Wang Xiao's expression became very solemn. Perhaps, what he discovered was just the tip of the iceberg, and there were some more powerful experts that he had yet to discover. As for how many Innates were hidden here, Wang Xiao did not know, but there must be many of them.    

    

As members of the Martial Alliance, those like the Elder Zhu would definitely offend some people, and offend many experts. Once they retire, there would definitely be a lot of assassinations. Thus, the Martial Alliance arranged for experts to protect them.    

    

Martial Alliance were separated into the civil and martial sects. The Elder Zhu belonged to the literary faction, not the martial faction. Although he had already retired, he still had the rights. For example, his own sect had been recognized, and the previous transaction was arranged by the Elder Zhu.    

    

However, no matter how many experts there were here, Wang Xiao did not care. Of course, with his current ability, he didn't have the ability to offend Martial Alliance. Furthermore, the sect behind Wang Xiao did not have any conflicts of interest with the Martial Alliance, so there was no need to be an enemy of the Elder Zhu.    

    

"Brother Wang Xiao, that friend of yours doesn't seem to be normal." Chen Dagaang said to Wang Xiao.    

    

If the little demon was here, he would definitely go into a rage when he heard Chen Dagaang's words. Someone actually said that he was abnormal.    

    

"My good brother the little demon has such a nature. He is straightforward and can say anything he wants. He doesn't have any schemes, so I hope that you don't mind." Wang Xiao smiled slightly.    

    

Chen Dagaang expressed indifference, he did not really care about the imp's personality, in any case, he did not have a good relationship with the person, and would probably not interact with them in the future.    

    

Under Chen Dagaang's lead, Wang Xiao entered a villa. The big hall of the villa was very large, and the furnishings inside were not very luxurious, but it gave off an ancient feeling.    

    

This was a place where people with good taste lived. Real rich people were very particular about it, unlike upstarts. For example, some upstarts would become rich overnight, fearing that others would not know that they were rich. Thus, they would wear all ten fingers with gold rings, wishing that they could grow a few fingers and wear a few more gold rings. His neck and wrists were covered in gold and silver.    

    

However, true rich people would not care about such things. They paid more attention to their bearing, their words and actions. Even if they were to wear ordinary clothes, they would unknowingly reveal the aura of a superior.    

    

The hall was empty, the Elder Zhu was not there, maybe he had gone to another place.    

    

"Brother Wang Xiao, wait a moment, Elder Zhu is playing chess with someone in the backyard, I'll inform him right away." Chen Dagaang said.    

    

"Alright, then I'll be troubling you." Wang Xiao expressed his gratitude.    

    

"You're welcome. Since we're all friends, I can help you with such a small matter." Chen Dagaang said.    

    

Chen Dagaang could arrange for such a small matter to happen. He was equivalent to the secretary of the senior leadership, and could arrange for outsiders to meet with the leader.    

    

The Elder Zhu was playing chess with someone, so it was inconvenient for Wang Xiao to go to the backyard to disturb them, since he was not Chen Dagaang after all, so he could not go in or out at will.    

    

Chen Dagaang walked out of the hall's back door and entered the backyard, while Wang Xiao waited in the hall. Elder Zhu's days passed by very casually. Sometimes he would play chess, read the newspapers, drink tea and chat for a whole day.    

    

Compared to most of the elders, Elder Zhu was luckier and better off than them. Some leaders complain all day long about their work, stress, or contribution to society, and so on.    

    

But people like them, do they ever think about the working class, the kind of people who are really hardworking, who work hard every day, get up early in the morning and go into the dark, and eat and live frugally, never able to afford a house in their entire lives. If a child is unfilial after his later years, he may starve to death or freeze to death. However, even if the people of Elder Zhu were old, they would still be able to live a carefree and happy life, and would receive their salary every month.    

    

When Wang Xiao was young, he had seen two old men. One of them was an old man who did not have a job, so he could be considered a typical farmer. When this old man's children grew up, they were very unfilial to him. No one was willing to support him, and in the cold weather, he was frozen to death and starved to death.    

    

But there was another old man who was different. Because this old man was a national Staff when he was young, he had a salary when he was old. His children were all very filial. If the old man accidentally fell down, or had a small illness, the children would all be rushed to the hospital to ask about their safety and take great care of themselves.    

    

However, some people said that the reason why this old man's children were so filial was because he had a salary. If he lived an extra year, he would be able to earn money for his children. That was why his children were so filial.    

    

Although these words were heartbreaking, it might be true. If the first old man was also Staff when he was young and had a salary when he grew old, then he definitely wouldn't have been frozen to death or starved to death like that.    

    

In the society of money, many people only seek profit and benefits first. In front of money and benefits, friendship and kinship are nothing.    

    

Old people with retirement pay and savings would always surround their children. They seemed to be full of filial piety, but in reality, they all had their own ulterior motives. However, an ordinary old man had been abandoned by his children. His personality was cold and his world was cold. This world had truly changed.    

    

As parents, when their children are still very small, they are all hardworking, saving food and money, working hard to raise their children. However, once they grew old and couldn't get any support from their children, it would be like kicking a ball, and they would be able to shirk their responsibilities. Everyone has an old day, how they treat their parents, how the next generation will treat you.    

    

Wang Xiao waited in the hall for around ten minutes, but Elder Zhu still didn't appear. He originally wanted to go to the backyard to take a look, but since this was Elder Zhu's territory, he decided to continue waiting.    

    

The relationship between Wang Xiao and the Elder Zhu was actually not very good, it could even be considered as knowing each other, because the two of them did not have a deep friendship. The last time they met, it was only because of the exchange of benefits.    

    

Ta ta ta ta!    

    

As expected, Elder Zhu came in from the back door. After seeing Wang Xiao, Elder Zhu had a smiling expression, looking kind and amiable. Little Wang, I'm really sorry for making you wait. " The Elder Zhu said apologetically.    

    

"Elder Zhu, I am a junior. It doesn't matter if I wait for a while. And I am already very grateful to you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to meet me. " Wang Xiao said politely.    

    

From this trivial matter, one could see the position that Wang Xiao had in the heart of the Elder Zhu, or perhaps it was because the Elder Zhu didn't attach much importance to him. The reason was simple. If the Elder Zhu really valued Wang Xiao and he valued Wang Xiao greatly, then he would definitely not let Wang Xiao wait more than ten minutes. The moment Wang Xiao arrived, he would definitely come out immediately to welcome him.    

    

This time was different. Last time, Elder Zhu had something to talk to Wang Xiao about. And this time, it was Wang Xiao who needed to find Elder Zhu for a reason. So the last time Wang Xiao came here, although Elder Zhu was also playing chess with someone, he immediately stopped playing.    

    

Chen Dagaang poured a cup of tea for the two and left the great hall.    

    

"Little Wang, please drink some tea. This is a good tea given by a good friend of mine. Usually, I would not be willing to drink it unless it was to receive an important guest." Elder Zhu said politely.    

    

"It is my honor to receive your gracious hospitality, Elder Zhu." Wang Xiao said. Of course he was clear that what he had said just now was just his teacher's polite words.    

    

After raising the teacup, Wang Xiao slowly took a sip. This tea was not bad, but Wang Xiao was not too particular about tea.
