Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality Chapter 1085 546: Li Congjing's Younger Brother

Thinking this way, he turned to look at the usually reliable Old Dao and Flying Eagle.

However, at this mont, Old Dao was also stuffing his mouth full of at, speaking haltingly, "Cap...Captain, this...this stuff is really tasty..."

Feeling helpless, Xia Luyao turned to Lin Beichen, only to find Lin Beichen seed to have relaxed his guard too, walking over to the table, trying a piece of steak, and praising, "Captain, you should co and try it. This steak is definitely made by a top chef."

Xia Luyao suddenly began to doubt if there was sothing wrong with his outlook on life and values. Looking at these quirky teammates in front of him, a sense of helplessness surged in his heart.

At this ti, Li Qiao, seeing how happy Lin Beichen was eating, showed a smile on his face, "People from Xia Country are indeed rare." Lin Beichen turned to listen to Li Qiao, whose pronunciation was standard but sounded a bit awkward, and couldn't help but ask, "Where did you learn your spoken language?"

Li Qiao's face showed a youthful pride, "I learned to speak by self-studying the articles of Mr. Lu Xun and others!" Lin Beichen fell silent upon hearing this, admiring Li Qiao's self-learning ability and dedication.

Actually, having a spoken language exam for practice would be better, your spoken language is a bit... formal. Lin Beichen considered his words, trying to find an appropriate description.

"Bookish." He finally chose this word.

Disappointnt flashed across Li Qiao's face, "I always bragged about my self-study abilities to my sister and brother-in-law."

"Your sister?" Lin Beichen put down his chopsticks, keenly catching onto this crucial information, "Who is your sister?"

Xia Luyao felt a sense of relief; it seed Wang Yu was just joking earlier, he was still quite reliable.

"My sister, her na is Li Congjing." Li Qiao dragged out his tone, sowhat reluctantly, "I've always wanted to give her a na, but she just doesn't agree."

Lin Beichen's mouth twitched, surprised that Li Congjing had a brother like this. If he had seen how Li Congjing behaved in front of Joseph, he might have thought Li Qiao was too gentle.

But Xia Luyao's heart was already in turmoil, she still rembered that little girl who was utterly overpowering her.

"How old are you this year?" Lin Beichen asked with a smile, like he was inquiring a younger brother.

"I'm twenty-one today, I'll be twenty-two tomorrow after my birthday." Li Qiao eagerly replied, as if treating Lin Beichen like his own elder brother.

Looking at Li Qiao's affectionate gaze, Lin Beichen couldn't help but feel he was overly familiar. This kind of look was generally only shared among good friends.

Li Qiao cleared his throat, returning to his approachable gentlemanly deanor. By now, it was already dusk, and they'd nearly spent a whole day without eating. Xia Luyao rubbed her belly, having to admit she was hungry too. They had been traveling since morning, with no ti for als.

Lin Beichen turned back to indicate Xia Luyao she could eat without worry, allowing Xia Luyao to finally relax. Li Qiao, on the other hand, watched this scene with great interest. When Lin Beichen turned back to face him, he still wore that peculiar smile, as if he were smiling at you in the bathroom.

"What are you looking at?" Lin Beichen asked, puzzled.

Li Qiao smiled apologetically, "For certain reasons, my sister doesn't really care for . So I don't have anyone close. Seeing you guys communicate like this, I find it quite interesting."

Lin Beichen naturally understood the well-known reasons. Li Congjing was sold out back then to secure a high position for her brother in a superpower.

"The outside world has always thought you were dead." Lin Beichen said as he walked up to Li Qiao. Seeing Lin Beichen, who was a head taller than him, Li Qiao waved his hand, an officer imdiately brought over a chair, "Sit down and talk. You must be tired too." He said.

Lin Beichen sat down without hesitation, Flying Eagle frantically signaling to him from the side, but he paid no attention, continuing to inquire like he was chatting with an old friend, "Why didn't Li Congjing kill you?" The question sounded awkward, but Li Qiao was not at all evasive.

"You all think my sister is crazy, but actually she's not." Li Qiao's words carried a slight sadness, "She just ard herself in tornt, hates most things in the world, yet deeply loves her own life." At this point, he suddenly stopped, a different expression flashing in his eyes.

Lin Beichen saw he had an untold secret and didn't want to continue this topic.

As expected, Li Qiao swiftly changed the subject, "In any case, my sister still retains so humanity. She felt I, who could do nothing and knew nothing at that ti, was not at fault, so she spared my life."

After hearing this, Lin Beichen fell into deep thought, in that sense, the "mad" Li Congjing was far more rational than most normal people, but why would she disguise herself as a lunatic? For Joseph?

Thinking about Joseph, who clumsily committed suicide in front of him, Lin Beichen shook his head, unable to understand, until now, he still didn't know who Joseph wanted revenge against, "Did Joseph have any enemies when he was alive?" He suddenly asked, when ntioning Joseph, Li Qiao was clearly less scrupulous, "After I got to know him, all his enemies were dead." Li Qiao said after taking a sip of tea, "As for before I knew him... frankly, I was rely a prisoner trying to survive."
