Why sleep for a long time before you are alive? You will sleep forever after you die.

Lu Dongjie, who was lying on the bed, stared blankly at the ceiling, silently comforting himself.

What wakes Lu Dongjie up on time every day is not a dream, but reality.

Up is being staged here every day, from early morning to sunset, regardless of wind or rain, it is unstoppable.

Lu Dongjie stretched and looked at the time. It was only eight o'clock in the morning.

After Lu Dongjie had washed up and walked out of the restaurant, he suddenly felt that something was not good.

Little sister Lu actually sat quietly, sipping the porridge with a small spoon in a polite manner. How could my sister be so well-behaved?

I looked at my father again. Although he was concentrating on reading the newspaper, his dark eyebrows and cold eyes were almost a warning to strangers to stay away.

My mother ate calmly and calmly, but the aura emanating from her body made people shudder.

When things are abnormal, there must be monsters. Could it be that the Lu family has also lowered the Iron Curtain, ushering in the Cold War for hegemony?

Lu Dongjie walked over cautiously and said hello to them, but no one paid attention. Lu Dongjie touched his nose, smiled awkwardly, picked up a bowl and spooned a bowl of white porridge, and followed suit.

"Oh, some people are just petty and are addicted to jealousy. How dare they ridicule me for being a woman?" Mother Lu seemed to be saying to herself and sighing quietly, as if she was accusing a callous and unlucky man.

"Huh, some people are shameless. They want to meet their old flames and want me to greet them with a smile. It's really unreasonable." Father Lu shook the newspaper in his hand and sneered.

Lu Dongjie, who was just being a melon-eater, couldn't help but tremble in his heart. He was here again, picking up flowers in the morning and evening, and bringing up old things again. Is this the daily life of a middle-aged marriage crisis?

"You're still old at this age," Mother Lu said, tapping the porcelain bowl with her chopsticks and laughing angrily.

"Do you think he is some kind of fresh radish skin, Uncle Jinshan? Why should I give him face?" Father Lu glanced sideways at Mother Lu and said with disdain.

"If you don't go, I'll take a kid with me. Huh, you think you can't eat pigs without a butcher Zhang." Mother Lu sneered again and again, staring at Lu Dongjie like lightning.

"What's the point of going there? It's not like you're working as a companion for someone else." Father Lu glared at Lu Dongjie.

Lu Dongjie blinked from side to side, wondering whether he should support his father's side or join his mother's camp. For a moment, he was in a dilemma.

Lu Dongjie kicked Xiaomei Lu under the table with his foot. Xiaomei Lu raised his head and rolled his eyes, then continued to eat with his head down. He was clearly trying to protect himself.

"Father, please rest assured. No matter whether there is a mine formation or an abyss ahead, I will keep my mission in mind and fulfill my duties to ensure that my mother does not lose a penny and never let down the trust and trust given by the organization." Lu Dongjie stood up with courage.

, said with a tragic and decisive look.

The only solution now is to choose the lesser of two evils.

"Huh?" Lu's father and Lu's mother looked at each other and said the same thing but not in anger.

Lu Dongjie sat down and wiped off a cold sweat. He obeyed his mother's feelings but failed his father's wishes, and finally mediated to resolve a local conflict and war.

Xinle Seafood Restaurant, Nathan Road, Yau Ma Tei.

In the evening, there was already a lot of traffic and a constant stream of traffic.

"Mom, I asked you to take a taxi here. I was so sweaty on the bus that I was almost late," Lu Dongjie said with a grimace as he looked at his wrinkled shirt.

"Oh, you are a prodigal. You are not a family. You don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, right? From now on, I will make soy sauce and make rice for you every day, so that you can pretend to be a rich man." Lu's mother patted her clothes and straightened them out.

Hair, replied angrily.

As soon as the two of them reached the door of the restaurant, a relatively high-end Mercedes Benz stopped and honked its horn. Mother Lu cursed these unqualified rich people with a look of disgust on her face and continued to pull Lu Dongjie inside.

Just halfway through, she heard someone calling her name vaguely from behind. When she turned around, she saw a middle-aged man with a somewhat elegant temperament walking towards her.

"Wanying, I haven't seen you for so many years, but you are still as charming as before. You can recognize you right away when you look at the crowd, haha." The middle-aged man held Mother Lu's hand enthusiastically.

"Brother Qiu is still so good at coaxing people. I think the ghost girls on the other side of the ocean will still be fascinated by you." Mother Lu was a little surprised and said with a teasing smile, and the two chatted happily.

"Ahem!" Lu Dongjie had to cover his mouth with his hand and pretend to cough lightly. You were reminiscing about the past as if there was no one around. Do you think I am air?

"Who is this?" He Runqiu looked at Lu Dongjie with a smile.

"My son, Lu Dongjie, Jiezai, is called Shibo." Mother Lu patted Lu Dongjie on the shoulder.

"Hello, Shibo," Lu Dongjie greeted with a smile.

"Well, that's right. My nephew is indeed a talented person. He has inherited the inheritance from your mother." He Runqiu looked at Lu Dongjie carefully.

"Thank you Shibo for the compliment," Lu Dongjie responded politely.

He Runqiu glanced back and saw a tall young man walking through the door and waved to him.

"This is my nephew in the United States, Andy Chan, Andy Chan." He Runqiu introduced Andy Chan with a smile.

As soon as Andy Chen and Lu Dongjie made eye contact, they each flashed a hint of surprise, and then shook hands as if nothing had happened.

Just as they were greeting each other at the door, they saw a boy holding two boxes hurriedly walked in at the door. In his hurry, without looking at the road, he tripped on the underground light cable and fell instantly.

The box also fell forward and broke.

"Ah...ah...ah" people who happened to be passing by the door screamed and fled in panic.

I saw several fierce snakes crawling out of the gap in the box, sticking out their tongues and swimming around.

Lu Dongjie, with his sharp eyesight and quick hands, kicked away a snake that was swimming toward him and pulled Lu's mother back.

The boy who fell on the ground was also frightened by this situation. Fortunately, another girl rushed in from the door and threw a few small white lumps at the box. The fierce snakes that originally fled around started to rush towards the box.

Gathered at the box.

The girl rolled up her sleeves and walked over, flicking and lifting the snake's tail, and caught all the fugitives in a few strokes.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I scared you." The girl took the boy's hand and kept bowing and apologizing.

At this time, the lobby manager also appeared with a frightened look on his face, apologized to the customers, explained that these were the ingredients for making snake soup tonight, and then pulled the two siblings toward the kitchen.

After a while, the lobby manager's violent and thunderous curses came.

After the false alarm, they did not dare to stay at the door for a long time and walked straight into the lobby.

This Xinle Seafood Restaurant is located on the ground floor of Xinle Hotel. This restaurant opened more than ten years ago and has witnessed the most glorious era of Cantonese films.

Just like those celebrities like to have afternoon tea at the Peninsula Hotel, language film stars like to use this place as their gathering place.

If you wanted to chase stars back then, you could catch many of the most popular celebrities in the wild at any time at Xinle Restaurant.

Of course, the Cantonese films referred to here are not the Hong Kong films that we later became familiar with. Compared with the later New Wave films, they were also jokingly called Cantonese fragments.

Although Cantonese films are slowly fading and their popularity is no longer there, Xinle Restaurant is packed with guests every day and business is booming.

Lu Dongjie, who was sitting in the front seat on the right side of the hall, looked hopeless. From the moment he stepped into the room, Lu's mother pulled him to talk to the uncle about recent anecdotes and to talk to the aunt about the family's shortcomings.

What's even more horrifying is that her behavior is a bit like that of a feudal parent, and she has been unabashedly trying to find out if there are any girls of the right age who are waiting for marriage in the other party's family.

You said that I am a royal bodyguard, how could I...? Sure enough, I fell into the double act trick. Sure enough, Jiang is still old and hot. Lu Dongjie finally came to his senses.

"Ajie, look at your rosy face, maybe something good is about to happen." The man sitting opposite Lu Dongjie joked with a smile.

"Brother Guang, how can I expect good things to come soon if I look so bad?" Lu Dongjie rubbed his brows and replied weakly.

"Pay attention to the scenery everywhere. Hey, do you see Xiaojiabiyu and IKEA Yishi at one o'clock? Are you interested?" Yin pretended to be nonchalant and gestured to Lu Dongjie.

Lu Dongjie followed Yin's prompts and saw a petite and exquisite figure sitting at another table on the right front, although from Lu Dongjie's direction he could only see most of his profile and outline.

But it is undeniable that this elf-like little girl is in her prime, with bright eyes, white teeth, and picturesque eyebrows. Her baby-fat face looks like pink makeup, especially when she smiles, she has a shallow dimple on her left cheek.

Lu Dongjie couldn't help but take a few more glances.

"Frankly speaking, what do you think my chances are?" Lu Dongjie asked seriously.

"Probably one in a million," Yin smiled and replied seriously.
