Jingbei City, Xu Family Manor.
Passing through the garden carefully maintained by the housekeeper, Xu Qingli came to the door of the largest building in the center of the manor.
In the spacious hall, all mahogany furniture, with exquisite decoration, is luxurious.
A young and beautiful maid was wiping the furniture in the house. Seeing the eldest lady coming back, she hurriedly stood up and folded her hands and bowed deeply to Xu Qingli.
Xu Qingli smiled at her and asked, "Is my father still at home?"
"The master just finished breakfast and is resting on the second floor."
The maid pointed to a room upstairs.
"Thank you." After thanking her, Xu Qingli went straight up the stairs.
The first time she returned to her familiar home after rebirth made her feel a little nervous.
She tried her best to calm her ups and downs and knocked on the room where her father was.
"Come in."
Xu Hang's steady voice came from inside the door.
For a moment, Xu Qingli was a little afraid to open the door. She was afraid that all this was a dream and that she would wake up from the dream if she opened the door.
Taking a deep breath, she turned the handle and opened the door. A middle-aged man with a dignified look was leaning on the sofa, smoking and reading documents.
Seeing the cigarette in her father's hand, Xu Qingli's pretty eyebrows frowned immediately.
Her father was seriously injured in his early years, and the doctor said that if he wanted to live a few more years, he had to quit smoking and drinking.
In her previous life, her father died of illness. She could only stand in front of the bed and watch her father take his last breath, crying like a tearful person.
Seeing that the person who came in was his daughter, Xu Hang was stunned, and quickly put out the cigarette in his hand, with an embarrassed look on his face: "Daughter, don't you have to go to class today? Why did you suddenly come home?"
"You secretly smoked at home again! Didn't the doctor repeatedly tell you not to smoke?"
Xu Hang coughed and explained: "This is not an old habit. I can't help but want to light up when I think."
"It's really not my subjective desire to smoke!"
Xu Qingli didn't want to listen to his father's weak excuses, walked in front of him and stretched out his hand: "Take out the cigarette."
"The last one, it's really gone."
"Confess and you will be lenient. If I search it out, I will ignore you for a month." Xu Qingli said and was about to pick his father's pocket.
Xu Hang knew his daughter's serious nature. If she found cigarettes on him, she would really ignore him for a month.
"Okay, okay, I still have half a pack, all for you."
He had to reluctantly take out half a pack of cigarettes from the gap between his clothes.
Xu Qingli took the cigarette away, and her serious expression softened immediately. She grabbed her father's arm and said coquettishly: "Dad, I'm doing this for your health. You won't be angry with your daughter, right?"
If Chen Ping was next to him, he would definitely be surprised.
The shy and quiet girl at school was actually lively and coquettish in front of her father?
Xu Hang patted Xu Qingli's arm lovingly and asked his daughter to sit on the sofa beside him.
"How could Dad be angry? Dad is very happy to see you."
The gentle look of her father made Xu Qingli's eyes moist, and the longing for her father in her heart burst out like a raging flood.
"Why did my daughter cry suddenly? Did someone bully you at school? Tell Dad, I will never let him go!"
Xu Hang's eyes were filled with anger, like a volcano about to erupt.
Xu Qingli wiped her tears and smiled, "No one bullies my daughter. I am crying tears of joy."
After observing for a long time, seeing that Xu Qingli did not look aggrieved at all, Xu Hang relaxed and smiled, "Why, you miss your father so much after just a few days of not seeing him?"
"Of course I miss you. I haven't seen my father for a long, long time~"
It was only a few days for Xu Hang, but for Xu Qingli, it had been many years since she last saw her father.
Xu Hang touched Xu Qingli's little head lovingly: "Just because you missed me, you skipped classes and came back to see me?"
"I came back today not only to see Dad, but also for another request."
"You said, as long as the request is not too much, Dad will agree to it."
"I want to switch to the military department and learn martial arts."
Hearing this, Xu Hang was stunned, then his face changed and said: "No! I promised your mother that I must not let you learn martial arts. I can't break my promise to your mother."
Xu Qingli had expected her father to refuse, and continued: "Mother doesn't want me to learn martial arts because she is afraid that I will die on the battlefield, but now there is another movement in the Beast Abyss, and your daughter doesn't want to sit and wait for death!"
"How do you know that there is a movement in the Beast Abyss? This is news that the military has strictly blocked!"
"Dad, I heard you talking in your sleep one night." Xu Qingli found a random excuse to prevaricate.
When did he have the problem of talking in his sleep? Xu Hang scratched his head,
"Anyway, I won't let you learn martial arts. Although there are some changes in the Beast Abyss, the Demon Suppression Pass is still as solid as a rock. It's not your turn as a little girl to risk your life there."
Seeing my fatherStill disagreeing, Xu Qingli thought for a while and compromised: "Then you can let me awaken my talent, right? I won't learn martial arts if I don't awaken my SSS talent."
Xu Hang wanted to refuse, but seeing the strong hope in his daughter's eyes, he couldn't say no.
His daughter rarely asked him, and he really didn't want to disappoint her.
After a long time, Xu Hang finally agreed: "Okay, I'll take you to find your uncle, he still has an awakening stone."
"But let me make it clear in advance, don't cry if you don't awaken your SSS-level talent."
"I'm not a little girl, I won't cry!"
Xu Hang laughed, as long as his daughter was happy, what did a mere awakening stone mean?
Of course he didn't believe Xu Qingli could awaken her SSS talent.
Talent levels are divided from SSS to F from high to low, and there is a high probability of awakening failure.
Those who awaken S-level talents are lucky ones among ten thousand.
The probability of awakening an SSS-level talent is lower than the probability of winning the lottery jackpot!
Xu Hang was already thinking about how to comfort his daughter if she awakened a poor talent, but she was strong and should be able to cheer up soon and go back to finish her studies.
Xu Qingli's uncle lived in a three-story building in the north of the manor. The house was simply decorated with only some necessary furniture, and it was very neat and clean.
A tall and burly man sat cross-legged on the futon in the middle of the hall, his eyes closed, and a resolute aura emanated from his eyebrows.
As soon as the father and daughter walked into the house, Xu Wenbo opened his eyes and said, "Niece, how come you have time to see your uncle today? Do you want to learn martial arts from your uncle?"
As for Xu Hang, who was standing next to Xu Qingli, he was ignored by him.
When Xu Qingli saw her uncle Xu Wenbo again, many memories came to her mind.
After her father died in her previous life, it was her uncle who taught her martial arts and gradually led her out of the haze of losing her father.
She bowed to Xu Wenbo earnestly: "Uncle, I want to learn martial arts from you."
After saying this, Xu Hang beside him suddenly became anxious. That's not what she told him just now!
Didn't she say that she would learn martial arts after awakening her SSS talent?
Xu Hang was about to speak, but was interrupted by Xu Wenbo:
"Don't talk nonsense, didn't you hear that your niece wants to learn martial arts from me?"
