Chapter 385
There was a green leather carriage parked at the door. The carriage was low-key and luxurious. If the mahogany frame was changed by someone else, he would definitely not care too much.

But Huang Lingxi was very concerned about this, and approached Hua Xiaoqiao and said, "This Lan family is really low-key."

After speaking, he looked at the carriage.

At this moment, the No.1 person who got off the carriage was Mr. Lan. After getting off the carriage, Mr. Lan was waiting at the side. A middle-aged man in his forties got out of the carriage.

Just at the first glance, Hua Xiaoqiao felt that this middle-aged man was not simple. The sinister eyes and the somewhat menacing appearance made Hua Xiaoqiao a little dazed.

Such a person is definitely not a kind person, this is the first thought in Hua Xiaoqiao's head.

She looked at the middle-aged man earnestly as he got off the carriage, and wondered in her heart what was the relationship between Ban Xia's family and this man.

She would think this way, even she herself didn't know why, she just felt that the appearance of this middle-aged man, whether it was the first impression or his every move, made people feel chills.

"Father, please." Mr. Lan said very politely.

Master Lan walked in with his head held high.

Hua Xiaoqiao's face was calm. The agitated and suspicious mood just now had completely calmed down. She knew that people like Master Lan were old foxes, and she must be calm when making friends with such old foxes.You must not mess up your position, and you must not be too flustered to let yourself fall into the trap of others.

It's definitely not accidental that she feels this way, not only does she feel that Master Lan is not easy at the moment, even Huang Lingxi who is standing by the side is nervous.

Huang Lingxi gently touched Hua Xiaoqiao and asked worriedly: "Little Qiao."

Hua Xiaoqiao raised the corners of her lips in embarrassment, glanced at Huang Lingxi and said, "Let's go in."

After speaking, please invite Master Lan to enter the inner hall together.

Master Lan didn't speak all the time. Seeing Hua Xiaoqiao and Huang Lingxi leading the way, he was very calm, especially after seeing Hua Xiaoqiao's steady steps, he also secretly sighed in his heart that Hua Xiaoqiao was really not a simple person.

Huang Lingxi took care of things like entering the inner hall together and pouring tea.

Hua Xiaoqiao looked at Master Lan with a smile and said, "I'll just get back to business. Master Lan must have come here for Lan Jiuqing's affairs."

She hadn't mentioned the name Lan Jiuqing in front of Mr. Lan just now, but now she said it directly in front of Mr. Lan to show that she actually knew a lot.

Master Lan's face changed slightly and he said sharply, "I don't know where Miss Hua saw Lan Jiuqing."

Master Lan was very imposing, and Huang Lingxi, who was sitting beside him, was afraid of such aura, and even Young Master Lan lowered his head in fear.

This kind of momentum was obviously released by Master Lan deliberately to give Hua Xiaoqiao a bad start.

But what he himself overlooked was that Hua Xiaoqiao didn't care about it at all.

If it were someone else, she might really be scared to pee, but who is Hua Xiaoqiao? Hua Xiaoqiao is someone who has seen the emperor. There was a look of fear in front of the master.

Moreover, she was good friends with General Kang and Prince Jin, so how could General Kang and Qin Mu's courage in the midst of thousands of troops be comparable to that of a businessman like Master Lan.

This kind of aura can only be prestige in front of others, and it will not work at all in front of Hua Xiaoqiao.

Hua Xiaoqiao was still sitting majestically on the chair with a relaxed expression and no hint of fear.

Master Lan frowned slightly, but he didn't expect Hua Xiaoqiao to be not afraid at all.

He looked at Hua Xiaoqiao suspiciously and didn't believe that Hua Xiaoqiao had such ability to withstand his coercion.

You must know that few people in this capital can match this kind of coercion, even those princes and nobles will be afraid.

However, a little girl like Hua Xiaoqiao is not afraid at all that he can't figure out the problem in the middle.

Hua Xiao Qiao Weiwei raised the corners of her mouth and looked at Huang Lingxi and said, "My sister's business outside is probably too busy for Qing'er alone, you can go out and help, and Mr. Lan has something I want to say to your father alone, so Can you please avoid it for a while?"

As soon as these words fell through, Mr. Lan still had a reason not to evade them.

Hua Xiaoqiao said that it is very clear that she understands this way, some words are only said to Master Lan, and you, Mr. Lan, are not qualified to listen to them.

This kind of arrogance made Mr. Lan feel helpless, and sometimes he could tell what a person looked like just by looking at him.

When he came here for the first time just now, he felt that he couldn't see Hua Xiaoqiao clearly. He didn't expect that Hua Xiaoqiao was not afraid of his father this time. He never expected that. He knew his father's prestige Not to mention Hua Xiaoqiao, even the family members were terrified, but Hua Xiaoqiao didn't look worried at all.

Master Lan just glanced at Young Master Lan, and Young Master Lan who was still hesitating went out directly.

Huang Lingxi was very considerate and directly closed the door so that the two could talk quietly.

Hua Xiaoqiao waited until everyone went out before smiling at Master Lan: "Master Lan, I know you have a lot to ask me now, but I also have questions to ask you, I admit that I am curious about your family's Something happened."

She pretended not to care before, but she actually wanted to see what Master Lan wanted to say, but she didn't expect Master Lan to be so calm.

Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy.

After she said this sentence, she didn't speak to understand what the purpose of Master Lan's silence now was because she wanted to test her depth.

She doesn't care about these things, anyway, what Master Lan said now is not important to her, the most important thing is what she wants to know.

Master Lan is not a fool to talk falsely when in contact with such a person, and honestly say that what he knows is something a fool would do.

The room was very quiet, it took about a stick of incense for Master Lan to open his mouth.

"Miss Hua is really not an ordinary person."

As he spoke, he slightly raised the corners of his lips, just to see Hua Xiaoqiao's performance.

But I didn't want Hua Xiaoqiao to be very calm, and the expression on his face didn't change a little when he heard this.

She didn't care what Master Lan said, but felt that Master Lan was a little weird now.

"I really don't understand what Master Lan's words mean. Let's get back to business, Master Lan."

Master Lan was still thinking about why Hua Xiaoqiao wasn't afraid of him, frowned and said, "I want to ask one thing, I hope Miss Hua can tell the truth."

Hua Xiaoqiao smiled and signaled Master Lan to continue, and Master Lan said: "Miss Hua, I want to know why you are not afraid of me just now, and it's not because I boast about my own aura. I know that even many princes and grandchildren in this capital Nobles will be afraid of me when they see me, but why are you not afraid of me at all?"

Hua Xiaoqiao shrugged and said truthfully: "Because I'm not an ordinary person, I want to ask Master Lan if he has ever seen the emperor in his life? Have you seen the majestic general who commands an army of [-]?"

Master Lan shook his head and said, "I've seen a lot of princes and the like, but you haven't seen what you said before."

Hua Xiaoqiao smiled and said: "But I have met, I have not only met but also made friends, the emperor, I have also met the prince and the general are also my friends, I have met too many people, so the aura of Master Lan is right. I have no influence, but Master Lan's aura surprised me, I didn't expect Master Lan to be so powerful."

When she said this, she was obviously admiring, and Master Lan laughed: "So I thought it was my own problem."

Seeing that Hua Xiaoqiao was not afraid at all, he thought it was something wrong with him, but now after hearing Hua Xiaoqiao's explanation, he realized that it was not his problem but Hua Xiaoqiao's problem.

Hua Xiaoqiao didn't want to talk about this matter, she just couldn't bring up Lan Jiuqing's matter, people like Master Lan must be more anxious than her heart.

She thought it might be better if she didn't say anything.

After a while, Master Lan said again: "You said you saw Lan Jiuqing, I hope you can tell me where exactly did you meet Lan Jiuqing?"

He wanted to find him very much, because it should be said that he had never given up looking for Lan Jiuqing for so many years, but there was never any news about him. This incident made him feel uneasy.

Hua Xiaoqiao didn't want to say that she raised her eyebrows and said: "I just said this question just now, we are dealing now. I should ask you the question. It's not that you asked me the question first. What I want to ask you is the matter of the year." Is it related to you?"

At any rate, she asked this question, and it was as if a big rock had fallen in her heart, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

I actually felt refreshed in my heart.

Master Lan looked at Hua Xiaoqiao incomprehensibly, why would he ask about what happened back then and said, "I don't understand why Miss Hua wants to ask what happened back then, is this matter really that important to Miss Hua?"

Hua Xiaoqiao nodded and said: "Of course it's important, otherwise how could I appear in front of you? It's because of the importance of this matter that I only found you now. Everyone understands Master Lan. I was just entrusted by a friend to want It's all about finding out what happened back then, can't you even satisfy my mother with this?"

As she spoke, her face changed, and she knew in her heart that Master Lan would not easily tell what happened that year, so she was inevitably a little disappointed.

However, she is not the person who is most worried about the whole thing. Now Master Lan is just competing with her for longer.

Master Lan was thinking about many things in his heart, but he couldn't figure out what Hua Xiaoqiao was thinking.

He felt that Hua Xiaoqiao was different, and he couldn't explain the difference, so he felt that Hua Xiaoqiao was not a simple person.

No matter what Hua Xiaoqiao does, he feels that he is a loser in the end.

When he saw Hua Xiaoqiao's confident appearance, he immediately understood that Hua Xiaoqiao had already understood his mentality. She must know that what he is most worried about now is this matter, but she wants to use this matter as her own bargaining chip .Really smart girl.

He himself was a little bit emotional that there were talented people from generation to generation, but it was a pity that it would be very uncomfortable to have such an enemy.

Hua Xiaoqiao remained silent and the room became quiet again.

"Miss Hua, I just want to know where my nephew is. I have been looking for him for so many years."

Hua Xiaoqiao smiled charmingly and glanced at Master Lan with deep meaning: "Are you worried about your nephew or the money?"

Master Lan was startled and said, "How much do you know?"

"I don't know much, but it's enough. Only you know what happened to Master Lan back then. It's useless for me to say more, but Master Lan, I just want to know if what happened back then has anything to do with you." .”

Her eyes are sharper than Master Cai Lan's eyes just now, which is shocking.

A trace of fear flashed in Master Lan's heart. He actually saw such a look in the eyes of a woman and he had already seen Hua Xiaoqiao's restless heart. The tension in his heart made him a little at a loss.

"What does Miss Hua mean by that?"

He pretended to be confused.

Hua Xiaoqiao raised the corners of her lips lightly: "Since Master Lan doesn't want to say it, that's fine. Anyway, even if I don't investigate this matter, someone will investigate it. Many people want to know what happened back then. The reason why I was the first to find you instead of investigating first is because I think you and him are relatives."

She said that she wanted to see the flaws on Master Lan's face.

But how could an old and cunning person like Master Lan show any flaws? Master Lan took a deep breath and said, "Please don't interfere with this matter, Miss Hua. If Jiuqing really wants to ask me anything, you can come to me directly. There is no need to go through you, an outsider..."

"Outsider?" Hua Xiaoqiao suddenly laughed.

Then he said meaningfully: "If an outsider, do you think I might be so concerned about this matter? I am not afraid of dying like his parents did back then. We all understand Master Lan. Porcelain work, so what I want to say is either you tell what you know now or this matter will stop here, of course I will forget about your daughter's matter, after all, I am a little bit more generous."

The implication of this is that the Lan family is too stingy, which makes Master Lan completely unable to bear the desire to fight back angrily.

It's just that Hua Xiaoqiao's calm appearance made him feel uncertain.

"Miss Hua can't say something nonsense."

He reminded that he didn't want Hua Xiaoqiao to doubt too much.

He is also a little uncertain whether Hua Xiaoqiao knows what happened back then, and he is also not sure what Hua Xiaoqiao knows.

Hua Xiaoqiao smiled, took a sip from her teacup, "Master Lan, what I said just now was all nonsense, in fact, I just think it's fun, so don't take it to heart, but I think if what happened back then is not related to you What's the matter, don't you need to hide so much? Anyway, it has nothing to do with you and you don't need to be nervous. "
