I had a great time eating hot pot this time. Although Bai Xiao seemed to have played a joke with him, it turned out that this young lady was just because of her interest and did not have much malice.

Since Bai Feng had a free hot pot, he would not bother with her about such trivial matters.

In addition, Haidilao's service attitude is well-known for being enthusiastic and in place in the industry. However, today, because of Xiao Ling, the waiters have no use. Bai Feng looked around and seemed to see resentment from the waiters' eyes. If everyone had a cute and easy-to-use "servant" like them, they would probably be unemployed!

As the person involved, Xiao Ling seemed to be happy with it and did not notice the resentful eyes of the waiter on the side.

It was two hours later that I had been fished out of the sea. At this moment, the sky was dark outside, and the bustling and fast-paced capital had ended the noise during the day. Under the night when the lights were on, it was decorated with colorful neon colors to make it even more dazzling and dazzling.

Bai Xiao drove out of the underground garage of the mall, and when he got outside, he found that it was drizzling in the sky. The wipers started to wipe off the rainwater falling on the front block, and his vision briefly became blurred and then became clear.

Under the illumination of xenon headlights, these raindrops falling from the sky were like tender bamboos swaying with the wind in the emerald bamboo forest. Slim and slender transparent liquid flashed through their eyes one by one, intertwining each other and quickly spreading their vision. The rain hit the ground, splashing splashes, and the drizzling scene completely drove away the summer heat, and even made people feel a little cold.

"Xiao Ling, Bai Feng, it's raining so heavily outside, why don't you go back? Go directly to my house." Bai Xiao turned on the turn signal and said without looking back while driving the car.

"Yes, okay." Xiaoling didn't think much, so he nodded directly, then took out his cell phone and sent a text message to his family to inform him about the situation. Anyway, Bai Xiao's home is big enough, so it's still easy to pack up two guest rooms, and Xiaoling already had a prepared nest there.

Of course, Bai Feng had no objection, even if he had no objection, there was nothing he could do. At this time, Bai Xiao obviously would not send him back. So he nodded and agreed: "Then let me disturb you."

"It's okay, it's okay."

Bai Xiao smiled and looked at Bai Zhi motionlessly. Bai Zhi immediately reacted and called Zhao Jie to ask her to prepare in advance.

At the same time, in a villa in Jinxiu Community.

Zhao Jie, who had just washed the dishes, made a cup of tea and walked out of the kitchen. Just as she was walking towards the living room, Bai Zhi called.

After answering the phone, Zhao Jie put the tea in his hand on the living room coffee table and prepared to go upstairs.

"What's wrong?" Bai Zhendong asked when he saw this.

Zhao Jie smiled: "Xiao Zhi called just now. They have finished the hot pot and are ready to come back. Xiaoling and Bai Feng are going to come to our house tonight to spend the night. I'll go up and clean up."

"Yes." Bai Zhendong nodded after hearing this.

Zhao Jie smiled and went upstairs.

More than ten minutes later, Zhao Jie finished packing the room and walked down, sat down to the east of Bai Zhen, and asked strangely: "What's going on with that white squid? Why are you with Xiaoxiao and the others?"

Xiao Ling is often followed by Bai Xiao, and Zhao Jie knew about this, but now there was a white squid, which aroused her curiosity. Speaking of which, Zhao Jie had a pretty good impression of the white squid. In his impression, he was a boy who didn’t say much and looked pretty and handsome, and was still very popular.

"It's nothing, it's arranged by the family." Bai Zhendong picked up the tea and took a sip, and said in a calm tone.

"The family arranged it?" Zhao Jie said in surprise. She thought that Bai Feng and Bai Xiao and the others had just happened to have dinner together, but she didn't expect that it was arranged by the family. Then she reacted, frowned slightly, and asked in confusion: "What does the family mean?"

Bai Zhendong said: "The senior management of the family recognized Xiaoxiao's strength, so they decided to focus on cultivating her. During the meal, I mentioned to you that I would take Xiaoxiao to purchase spirit stones in a few days, which was also a follow-up decision made. At the same time, there was another decision made, which was to arrange Xiaoling and Bai Feng to follow Xiaoxiao, so that they could support each other and form good development."

Zhao Jie was stunned after hearing this, "But, is this appropriate?"

“What’s wrong with it?”

Zhao Jie said: "Although the white squid is two years younger than Xiaoxiao, he is a boy after all, and Xiaoxiao is a girl now? They are together..."

Bai Zhendong looked at Zhao Jie and sighed: "It's right that it's not right. What kind of good intention do you think they're going to stuff the white squid next to Xiaoxiao?"

"Are they not good intentions?" Zhao Jie's expression suddenly changed after hearing this.

Although Bai Xiao is not her biological child, after more than ten years of getting along, the relationship between the two has long been like a mother and son. From Zhao Jie's standpoint, he naturally hopes that Bai Xiao will stay away from disputes and not fall into other people's calculations.

But after listening to her husband's tone, Bai Xiao seemed to have fallen into an invisible vortex and it was difficult to break free. However, when she thought about it, it was not right. She knew something about the internal affairs of the Bai family. The senior officials of the Bai family were more than a dozen zong elders, and those zong elders have always been harmonious and there should be no major conflicts, and they would not allow internal conflicts. Could something happen in the middle, or what is hidden?

"Things are not what you imagined." Bai Zhendong saw Zhao Jie's expression and knew that she had misunderstood. He shook his head and reminded: "Think about it, whose child is Bai Feng?"

"Bai Jingming?!" Zhao Jie's surprised look flashed by.

Bai Zhendong nodded: "Yes, Bai Feng is Bai Jingming's child, and Bai Jingming is the person who is the one who is mainly supported by the big house. His status in the family is even above me. You said that the big house has lost control of the family for more than a hundred years. Isn't it uncomfortable to see the head of the family keeps wandering around our third house?"

Zhao Jie: "It must be uncomfortable!"

"That's right!" Bai Zhendong continued, "The next head of the family has been basically decided. It is my eldest brother Bai Zhenye, that is to say, the big house... at least there is no hope in the competition for the next head of the family. Even if they are not convinced, they have to accept this reality. After all, this is a decision made by the senior management of the entire family and has the highest authority."

"But if there is no chance in the next term, it doesn't mean they don't have any in the future! The talent of that boy Bai Feng is pretty good. Although he is not as good as Yuchen, he is also a person with great development. The big house is also focusing on cultivating him."

Zhao Jie kept nodding and heard Bai Zhendong continue: "Of course, judging from the current situation, the position of the third generation head of the family is very likely to fall on our third-generation house. At least there are no strong competitors in other houses. Not only has it not appeared, but our base has become more stable because of Xiaoxiao's sudden emergence!"

Bai Xiao is Bai Yuchen's cousin, and he is the kind who has a very close blood relationship. To a certain extent, Bai Xiao is Bai Yuchen's plus point. The stronger she is, the more stable Bai Yuchen's status will be.

"I'm definitely not happy to see this situation in the big house. I'm putting the white squid next to Xiaoxiao just to dig Yuchen's foot."

"You mean, the big house wants to develop Xiaoxiao into their daughter-in-law?" Zhao Jie looked surprised. She had just thought that Bai Feng was a boy, and it would definitely be inconvenient to follow Bai Xiao, but she didn't expect that the big house arranged him over and actually wanted to "incorporate" Bai Xiao.

If it succeeds, the big house and the three houses will have a certain degree of convergence. Of course, the point is not here. The point is that Bai Feng and Bai Xiao are both very talented. Even if Bai Feng loses in the competition with Bai Yuchen, his offspring has a chance to turn the tables!

"This is not surprising. From the perspective of blood relationship, they have already given the five squads. They can have normal marriages without being within the limits of ethics. In addition, as a large family of Yuling, in order to ensure the purity of bloodlines, intermarriage between the same surname is very common, and to a certain extent, they are encouraged."

Bai Zhendong took a look and took a leisurely sip of tea.

"But Bai Jingming and the others are also working hard enough. For the future, I have no choice but to know that Xiaoxiao is suffering from female pseudo-sex deformity, so I have some appreciation for this."

"So you just watch your daughter be coveted by others? You know, in the eyes of others, she is just a piece of fragrant fat! Aren't you afraid of being eaten up?"

"Actually, I'm very helpless about this matter. When I learned the news, the Zong Lao Conference had already passed. Even if I had the will to object, I could do nothing." Bai Zhendong said this and made a helpless expression. In fact, when Bai Sihong told him the result, he instinctively wanted to object from his father's perspective.

"But you can rest assured that Xiaoxiao is smart. She knows what we are talking about now. How to decide in the end depends on herself. But I think that the big house sent the white squid here this time, and it may have to miscalculate. They originally wanted to incorporate Xiaoxiao, but they just didn't know who was recruiting who in the end. How can I say one thing, meat buns beat dogs and go without going back! Don't forget that Xiaoxiao has Xiaoling around."

When Zhao Jie heard this, he smiled, and the cleverness of Xiaoling appeared in his mind.

With her standing in front and staring at her, Bai Xiao will definitely not suffer any loss.

The big house probably underestimated the will of Xiao Ling to protect the master. Thinking of this, Zhao Jie felt relieved and shook his head and said, "You big family is really complicated. It's obvious that everyone lives together well, and they have to have so many battles full of right and wrong."

Bai Zhendong sighed: "There are rivers and lakes in places where there are people. Our Bai family is good. At least it competes for each house within the framework of rules, and it still shares the same hatred for the enemy outside. I think when the rule of moving to the ancestors in the first place, it may be due to some competitive considerations. After all, families that are too kind can easily lose their competitiveness. Only by being whipped by some pressure can they inspire people to move forward all the time!"

"And this method of orderly confrontation through the competition for leadership of each house is at least the meat is rotten in the pot, it is nothing more than a house that has been replaced by the banker."

"Dede, these are the affairs of you capable people, and I will not participate."

Zhao Jie smiled faintly. As someone outside the Spirit Realm, it was really difficult for her to get involved in the so-called "orderly competition" mentioned by Bai Zhendong.

From her perspective, the most familiar family disputes are nothing more than the storm that often appears in film and television works. Which of the wealthy families breaks out in order to compete for control of their property or enterprises. Which one is not indifferent and ruthless and plots against each other? In the end, the huge family fell apart and ended in a tragedy.

This may be the generation gap!

Ordinary people value money and power, but can money and power have the ability to go to heaven and earth to get fragrant?

For the spirit controler, wealth and power are always second, and the first one is always his own strength!

With strength, are you still afraid of not having wealth or power?

The perspectives of viewing problems are different, and the judgments formed are also different.

Objectively speaking, even if the families that have frequent internal conflicts have not disappeared due to internal fighting, they may have been eliminated by external threats due to great losses in strength.
