The place where Xia He lives is not remote. Although it is labeled as a "slum area", it is not difficult to take a taxi based on the nearby traffic conditions.
But Xia He, who was leading little Lolita Huo'er out, waited for ten minutes, but didn't stop a car. No, if she didn't stop her, she wouldn't be so anxious. She didn't even look - she didn't see a car. vehicle!
"Sister Xia, is Baicheng's brother going on strike?" Huo'er raised her innocent face and asked innocently.
Xia He frowned slightly and held Huo'er's soft palm: "Wait a little longer."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dark silver car sped up and stopped suddenly beside the two of them.
"Wow! What a cool car!" Huo'er's eyes lit up and he took a step forward to admire it closer.
As Bentley's most expensive luxury car and the world's best-selling luxury car, the Elegant 7 is not known for its dazzling appearance. But anyone who doesn't know much about cars can guess that it costs a lot when looking at this luxury car. What's more, Huo'er, who usually bites a lollipop and sits on the sofa reading car magazines when he has nothing to do?
"Do you like it?" Chu He stuck his head out, with a warm smile on his handsome face.
"Oh, it's you, the handsome guy!" Huo'er smiled brightly. "Are you a rich second generation?"
Chu He joked: "It used to be." After a pause, he asked, "Can't get a taxi?"
"Yes. Are you willing to give us a ride?" Huo'er asked cutely. Because he bent down to speak, even if he wore a high collar, the waves were still rough and difficult to look at.
"Come up. Anyway, I'm fine." Chu He's eyes fell on Xia He's delicate face, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
Huo'er was about to make a move, but Xia He, on the other hand, gently held Huo'er's hand. He said with a wary look: "We can just wait for the bus by ourselves. There is no need to trouble Director Chu."
Chu He glanced at the busy road and advised: "It's rush hour now. Let alone taxis, even if you walk to the bus stop one kilometer ahead, you may not be able to get on the bus. Besides, look at your face. I'm anxious. I must have something urgent to deal with. Get in the car. Give me a chance to help the students."
Huo'er also shook Xia He's arm: "That's right. Sister Xia, let's get in the car. I've never been in such a beautiful car."
Xia He was still hesitant, and Chu He took advantage of the situation and said, "At most, we can go our separate ways after you get off the car. I promise not to disturb you."
Seeing Chu He's sincere expression and the fact that he was in a hurry, Xia He thought for a moment and realized that it was just a ride, so he opened the back seat door bravely.
After the two of them fastened their seat belts, Chu He stared at Xia He in the rearview mirror: "How urgent?"
"It's urgent."
Whoosh!
Like a furious beast, the car rushed into the brightly lit main road with a loud engine sound.
The place Xia He wanted to go was not consistent with her status as a college student. A bar called Music. When Chu He drove to the door of the store, Xia He said thank you and pulled Huo'er out of the car.
Chu He was stunned in the driver's seat. Just as he was about to light a cigarette and park the car, someone knocked on the car window.
Rolling up the car window, Chu He smiled at little Lolita Huo'er and said, "Why didn't you go in?"
"Sister Xia won't play with me when she has something to deal with. Why don't you go in and play with me for a while?" Huo'er asked cutely.
"Why do you want me to accompany you? Because I'm handsome?" Chu He puffed out a puff of smoke and joked.
"You are indeed handsome. And your driving skills are great." Huo'er threw a lollipop into his mouth and handed one to Chu He. "Would you like to eat?"
"Eat so much sugar, be careful of tooth decay." Chu He opened the car door and asked as he walked. "What is your sister Xia here to deal with?"
"I don't know either." Huo'er shook his head.
"She works here?" Chu He frowned.
"No way. Sister Xia is the boss here." Huo'er said proudly. "Every time I come here to sing and drink, I don't have to spend any money!"
boss?
Chu He became more and more curious.
Her parents disappeared and passed away. Was it the property her mother left behind five years ago?
After wiping out his cigarette butt, Chu He smiled and said, "Let's go in."
The moment he entered the door, Chu He caught a glimpse of a figure from the corner of his eye. Turning around, he saw that the strange figure disappeared.
"What's wrong?" Huo'er asked, tilting his neck and flashing his big watery eyes.
"It's okay. Let's go."
Opening the door, the environment inside the bar is not as smoky as the nightclubs in movies and TV series. Of course, exciting music, hot beauties, and the strong smell of alcohol are the three indispensable weapons of the bar. I spent five nights squatting in a remote place.
The young Chu He couldn't adapt to the environment of the bar. He turned to Huo'er and said, "Is there a quieter place here?"
"There are private rooms on the second floor. But there is a minimum consumption for private rooms." Huo'er said in a familiar manner.
"Then let's go to the second floor. I'll ask you to sing." Chu He went upstairs with a smile.
The first floor is suitable for young people who are empty and lonely inside. Chu He looks eighteen years old, but his mental age is far beyond his actual age. He likes quietness more than noisy.
On the second floor, Huo'er was about to find someone to open a private room to sing karaoke. However, he saw a young man dressed as a security guard being carried out with a bloody head. From the private room that opened the door, there were faint sounds of fierce quarrels and threats. Chu
He turned around and asked, "Is your sister Xia here to handle things here?"
A look of worry appeared on Huo'er's originally cheerful face, and he nodded: "It should be so."
"Shall we go over and take a look?" Chu He said and walked towards the door.
Before taking two steps, he suddenly felt a looming murderous intention filling the corridor. When he turned around, he saw Huo'er smiling sweetly at him. He couldn't help but secretly wonder: "Did staying in Rainbow Town for a long time leave any sequelae?"
A waiter was about to close the door when he saw Xia He's little sister Huo'er coming over. He shook his head slightly and winked, asking her to leave first. But the handsome man next to the little Loli pressed against the door and got in sideways.
Huo'er also followed him and entered the box before closing the door.
The decoration in the private room is magnificent. The back of the bar-shaped sofa is made of local gold and is dotted with bright diamond white. The carpet under your feet gives people the feeling of shaking straight into the clouds. But the atmosphere in the room is not friendly, except for the pungent smell.
The smell of tobacco smoked the eyes, and there was also a faint smell of blood. As soon as he entered the room, Chu He had a rough idea of the situation.
The three men in suits sitting on the sofa looked cold, and there were five or six menacing strong men standing beside them. They looked more like thugs than serious bodyguards. Xia He, who was wearing a long black dress, looked like a thug.
Standing in front of everyone with a calm face, there were two young men dressed as waiters and three bar security guards beside her. She was at an absolute disadvantage based on the number of people alone.
Xia He held a glass of yellow-colored foreign wine in his hand and said with a flattering smile: "Brother Li, you are still a regular customer of our store anyway. Not to mention that the store never uses fake wine to fill the bill. Even if there is a mistake and the fake wine is purchased,
, and will never provide it to guests, let alone drink it for you.”
She did not hesitate to explain to the man on the sofa opposite, but she heard a snap. The man called Brother Li slapped the table and sneered: "You said you don't sell fake wine in your store, could it be that I brought it?"
Is the fake wine deliberately slandering you?"
"Of course not." Xia He shook his head and said modestly. "There must be some misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding?" When Brother Li heard this, he raised his ferocious brows and said expressionlessly. "I, Li Bazhi, have been living in Baihe District for more than ten years, and no one has ever dared to make me stand down in public. I came to your store today.
Entertaining distinguished guests, but you used fake wine to deal with me. You want to push it away after a misunderstanding? If word spreads, will I still get along with you!?"
Xia He looked troubled and hesitated for a moment before saying: "Brother Li's consumption today is on my account. If you have any other requests, please mention them as well. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse. In addition, what happened tonight
My son, I will never let anyone outside the box know, you can rest assured about this."
After hearing this, Li Bazhi silently lit a cigarette, took a puff of smoke and pointed to a bottle of fake wine on the table: "Drink it, and I won't pursue it any further."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became solemn.
There are many people who have drunk fake wine these days, but not many of them drink it sincerely even though they know it is fake wine.
Xia He is one of the music bosses. He usually runs the bar with great care and is friendly to his subordinates. As soon as he heard Li Bazhi speak, before Xia He could react, two security guards around her stepped forward and shouted: "Boss Xia,
I’ll drink it for you!”
They knew very well that Li Bazhi was a big gangster in this area. If they angered him, they would definitely cause more trouble in the future. Therefore, they hoped to drink this bottle of wine on behalf of Boss Xia, who usually treated them very well.
But as soon as they stepped forward, the young men who looked like thugs pushed them away and said viciously: "Get out of here! Whoever comes here again will bleed!"
Depending on the situation, if Xia He doesn't drink, Li Bazhi won't give up.
The situation reached a deadlock.
Chu He, who was standing aside smoking, turned and asked Huo'er: "Are there only two security guards in the bar?"
Huo'er tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "There are twenty-five in total. There are seventeen on duty tonight."
Chu He marveled at Huo'er's memory and smiled: "That guy is so arrogant, why don't you call a few more security guards to come up? Tell you secretly, I can beat three of them."
Huo'er pouted and said, "Sister Xia is afraid of causing trouble."
"Is that guy cool?"
"Li Bazhi is a big gangster in Baihe District. It is said that he has seventy or eighty younger brothers. Anyway, I am not afraid of him. But Sister Xia is in business, and it is better to do less than to do more."
Chu He nodded with a smile, refilled his cigarette, and walked towards the area where the incident occurred.
