The New Year is approaching in a blink of an eye, and the New Year flavor on the streets is getting stronger and stronger.
In this coldest time of the year, it should be considered normal for your friends to invite you out for a hot pot meal.
But that night, Feng Bujue, who was invited by Xiao Tan to a hotel room, felt something strange...
Gudu Gudu
There were three people sitting in the private room, but no one spoke... all that could be heard was the boiling sound of the hot pot soup base.
"It seems... I have to speak first..." In the end, Feng Bujue was the first to break the deadlock.
"Why are you speaking so seriously?" Bao Qing turned to look at him and asked, "You didn't bring any money?"
"You don't have to act anymore." Feng Bujue's tone was still serious, "I could tell as soon as I walked in... This is the Hongmen Banquet today."
"Brother Jue..." Xiao Tan twitched the corner of his mouth twice and continued, "This meal is really inexpensive, and the box fee is not bad... Besides, I originally planned to treat you to this meal."
"Hmph..." Feng Bujue heard the words and snorted coldly, "Xiaotan, Mr. Bao..." His eyes swept across the two of them, "Your various habits, small movements, and subconscious micro-expressions... I
I know better than anyone else..." He ignored the two people's conversation about meal money, but continued on his own, "From the time I came in to now, the two of you have spoken no more than ten sentences in total, and your eyes have not met more than three times.
; Xiaotan, a person who rarely crosses his legs, crossed his legs back and forth twice and played with his fingers three times... As for Mr. Bao, as a person who pays great attention to dining etiquette, you lowered your head and looked at your phone five times..."
He finished saying this in one breath, then looked at the two confused faces and asked in a deep voice: "You...received the order from Chief Gu to arrest me, right?"
"No." Bao Qing answered very decisively.
"Oh?" Feng Bujue raised his eyebrows, "Did you... come to kill me?"
"Haha..." Bao Qing laughed dryly twice, "I can't kill you. You have also practiced Dunjia Tianshu and have special powers. I definitely can't kill you alone and unarmed."
"Isn't there Xiaotan?" Feng Bujue glanced at Xiaotan, "I heard that your family has been cultivating immortals for generations, right?"
"Uh..." Xiao Tan didn't know what to say, "Actually..." So he simply avoided this nonsensical question and started talking about his purpose directly, "I invited you here today to send out wedding invitations...
..." As he said that, he took out a red envelope from his pocket and put it in front of Brother Jue, "Because Mr. Bao came earlier than you, and he has something to do later, so I have already sent his envelope just now.
Give it to him."
Silence comes again.
After a brief exchange, Feng Bujue's reasoning was overturned; he didn't say anything for a long time, and the atmosphere at the scene became a bit awkward, which was in line with the lyrics of the lyrics: the most afraid of sudden silence in the air.
"Well..." After a moment, Brother Jue's serious tone changed back to his usual lazy state, "Then why...after I came in, you didn't talk much?"
Bao Qing replied calmly: "You are a person who is half an hour late without saying hello. What do you want to hear when you come in? Do you want us to say 'It's okay, we just arrived'?"
"Then why do you keep looking at your phone?" Brother Jue asked again.
"Didn't Xiao Tan say that I'll have something to do later?" Bao Qing replied.
"Business?" Feng Bujue asked.
"No comment." Bao Qing threw out these four words without even thinking.
"Oh... That's business." Brother Jue nodded, and then looked at Xiao Tan, "Hey~ Then why do you look so embarrassed and have something in your mind?"
"Well..." Xiaotan thought for a while, "On the one hand... it's because you didn't talk to us just now, and the atmosphere was very depressing. I thought you had something on your mind, so I kept hesitating and didn't speak; on the other hand, it was because you didn't talk to us just now, and the atmosphere was very depressed.
On the one hand..." At this point, he stood up, "Actually, I've eaten a little too much hot pot in the past two days and I'm upset... Since I have nothing to do now, I'll go to the toilet first."
After that, he held his stomach and hurried out.
"Damn it, can't I just stop eating when I have a stomachache?" Feng Bujue rolled his eyes and yelled at Xiao Tan's back.
After arguing for a long time, the other party didn't have a ghost in his heart, but something in his belly.
"There are two kinds of people in this world..." The next second, Bao Qing looked down at his phone and complained, "The first kind likes to eat Mexican tortilla wraps, but when he eats them, he gets severe blood in his stool, so he has been having it ever since.
People who don’t eat; the second type is people who eat tacos and have severe bloody stools and then keep buying new underwear…”
"Ho~" Feng Bujue carefully understood the meaning of the other party's words, "Although I think it would be more appropriate to use Lu as an example here, but you..."
"Hey! Did you get the point wrong?" Bao Qing put down the phone and interrupted Brother Jue, "Is this how you react when you see the 'wedding invitation'? Our two brothers are getting married soon, but the point of your attention is
On the examples I used to complain?”
"You said 'immediately', which is a bit inaccurate." Feng Bujue said, "Technically speaking... he is 'already' married. Judging from the records of the Civil Affairs Bureau, he and Xiao Ling have already registered."
"Huh?" Bao Qing was dumbfounded now, "How do you know?" After two seconds, he seemed to have thought of something, "Xiao Tan told you? Hey~ but he didn't tell me."
"No, no... except for the two parties involved, him and Xiaoling, and their families, he didn't tell anyone." Feng Bujue said, "I found out on my own." He spread his hands, "You are
Those who know me well, I like to look through the databases of government agencies as a pastime when I have nothing to do; but starting from last year, your Section Chief Gu has strictly restricted me from hanging out in the public security system. There is no other way... I can only change my target.
Go to the civil affairs department and those semi-bureaucratic agencies... By the way, do you want to hear a few toilet jokes about the Football Association and the Writers' Association? I was inspired by it recently and wrote dozens of them while I was taking a shit. I am considering using a vest
Submit your articles online to earn some extra money. How about you come as an audience member and try the funny fruit?"
"What you said next... I just pretended not to hear it..." Bao Qingxu said with eyes, "The key is... you already knew that Xiao Tan and Xiao Ling had registered, but you didn't tell me?"
"Respect the person's dignity, wouldn't it be better to let him tell us himself?" Feng Bujue replied without changing his expression.
"At this moment, you are interpreting the word 'shameless' with both words and deeds, do you know that?" Bao Qing said.
"I respect people's privacy very much." Feng Bujue shrugged, "Look...before he took out the wedding invitation, did I reveal even a word about his marriage?"
After hearing this, Bao Qing thought for a long time, but for the time being he did not think of further refuting the other party's words...
"But, having said that... the way you two looked just now really shocked me." Feng Bujue said, "I really thought it was Section Chief Gu who sent you two to get rid of me." He said, also
He took out his cell phone and stood up, "Anyway... it's okay, I'll go out and make a call."
"Huh?" Bao Qing looked back at him, "It's just the two of us here, what kind of phone call do you have to go out to make?"
"It's nothing, because I thought I was ambushed just now, so I put my hand in my pocket while you were not paying attention and blindly sent some messages, notified some people, and arranged some backup plans..." Feng Bujue said as he walked,
"Since it's okay now, I'd better cancel those arrangements as soon as possible. Of course... they have to hear my voice..."
"Okay, okay." Bao Qing held his forehead and shook his head, interrupting Brother Jue again, "Just pretend I didn't ask..."
In fact, Bao Qing had seen something like this happen once before, when the three of them were in high school...
One day, a powerful boy in the family who had a conflict with Feng Bujue asked Feng Bujue to come out for a duel. Brother Jue thought that the other party would plan to ambush him, but he did not expect that the other party actually came alone.
After the selection was over, I accepted it without any complaints.
At that time, Bao Qing and Xiao Tan, who were hiding in the dark as a "backup plan", heard Brother Jue say these two words to the boy; "How many people know about your coming here today? Well... you
It's best to wait for me to make a few phone calls before going home."
After a while, when Bao Qing wanted to understand the meaning of those two sentences... he was also frightened for a while.
No one knows how many "backup plans" Feng Bujue has, and no one knows... what he will do, and to what extent.
But everyone has a consensus that if the end of the world suddenly comes one day, you need to find someone with emergency response measures by your side. It is right to find him... Of course, we do not rule out the possibility that he will be used as emergency food after you find him.
"Hello?" Brother Jue didn't go too far. The sound insulation effect of the hotel's walls was relatively good, so he answered the phone directly in the corridor, "Snow? Ah... it's me... it was a false alarm.
, your people don’t need to come over.”
"How heartless~" Snow's slightly joking voice came from the phone, "Am I the kind of friend you only contact when in need?"
"Don't make it sound like the two of us have some kind of sexual relationship." Feng Bujue said, just friends who use each other, or I don't mind if you omit the word 'friend'."
"Haha..." Snow said with a smile, "Okay~ As long as you are happy..." He paused, "But since we are using each other... my men made a trip tonight in vain and also spent a lot of manpower.
And gas money..."
"Two scripts." Feng Bujue knew what the other party was going to say, so he didn't waste any time talking to him and went straight to the point.
"Three." Snow immediately started bargaining.
"Two." Feng Bujue repeated decisively.
"They all have to be in sleep mode." Snow added.
"Deal." Brother Jue agreed on the terms and was about to hang up, "If there's nothing else, I..."
"Hey~" Snow raised his voice and said, "By the way, just now, I saw a big news on the game forum, and it is related to you."
"Oh?" Feng Bujue said, "What is it?"
"'This evening, Hongying Studio issued an announcement on its official website, announcing that the super-popular player [Xu Huaishang] had peacefully terminated its contract with the studio half a month ago. As soon as the news came out, the entire gaming circle was in an uproar. According to sources
, the contract of a star player of this level has very detailed provisions on the termination of the contract; the news of the termination must wait until all the termination matters of both parties have been dealt with before it can be released by the studio. If the player himself grabs it before the studio
She had previously disclosed relevant information without authorization. Even if the contract period has expired, she will still bear the corresponding liability for breach of contract. The longest termination process usually takes fifteen working days... It seems that losing the pillar will be a huge blow to Hongying, so
They delayed making this announcement until the last minute.'" Snow read the press release as it was originally written.
"So... what does this have to do with me?" Feng Bujue replied calmly.
Even though it seemed calm on the surface, in fact... when he asked this question, Brother Jue had some ominous premonitions in his heart.
"Hehe..." Snow was waiting for this question. He smiled sinisterly and responded, "'I interviewed the client Xu Huaishang through online chat for the first time. When asked which job he would go to next
When taking office at the studio, Xu Huaishang said that due to non-compete clauses, she would not be able to join other game studios in the next six months. The reporter therefore asked her if she would take this opportunity to enter the entertainment industry, and Xu Huaishang said
She will not leave the gaming industry, and even if she leaves one day, she will not enter the entertainment industry. Finally, when a reporter asked her about her plans for the next six months, she replied that she was considering joining some powerful non-professional gamer groups.
When asked which club was his top priority, Xu Huaishang responded that it was Hell Front.'"
