The three houses we bought need to be renovated, so we can't move there now.
So now, I have been temporarily living in Mr. Hong’s small foreign-style building.
He defeated Beitong and got his mother's acquiescence.
Mr. Hong is extremely happy now.
But that night, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
There is a place name that keeps lingering in my mind, Yundian.
I really want to know what happened there?
That's why my father was sent back with his hands and feet broken.
There was also Qu Fengmei, who specifically told Chen Yonghong not to step into Yundian.
After thinking for a while, I got up and went downstairs to the living room to find something to drink.
It was already late at night, but the lights were on in the living room.
Push the door open and go in.
I saw Xiaoduo holding his knees with his hands and sitting on the sofa in a daze.
At this time, Xiaoduo was wearing a white nightgown with a very short hem.
Her smooth and white calves and beautiful little feet were stepping on the armrest of the sofa casually.
She stared at her little feet, not knowing what she was thinking.
"It's so late, why aren't we, Sister Duo, still asleep?"
I am an indifferent person by nature.
But I have never been indifferent to Xiaoduo.
Xiaoduo suddenly flashed his big eyes, pouted his small mouth, turned his head and glanced at me, but said nothing.
"Are you in a bad mood?"
I asked again.
Xiaoduo nodded obediently.
"What's wrong? Tell me..."
At this time, I have transformed into a close brother.
Thinking of ways to enlighten Xiaoduo.
Xiaoduo raised his head, looked at the ceiling, pursed his lips, and said slowly:
"Actually, it's nothing. Just when I saw Mr. Hong and his mother together today, I suddenly envied him. I have never seen my parents since I was a child. Sometimes I wonder, what do they look like? Why?
Are you so cruel that you abandoned me?"
Xiaoduo's words made my heart hurt.
This cute little girl.
It can be innocent and cute, like a little angel.
He can also kill decisively, like a little devil.
In my eyes, she is like a child who has not grown up.
But in fact, there was a little unknown sadness in her heart.
I was thinking about how I should comfort Xiaoduo.
Unexpectedly, Xiaoduo suddenly changed the topic and asked me:
"Xiao Liuye, can I see your golden dice today?"
I was slightly startled.
This golden dice was given to me by Mr. Niu.
He once said that this dice was placed in his infancy when he picked up Xiaoduo.
He has never told Xiaoduo about this matter.
Unexpectedly, she actually wanted to see the dice now.
He took out the golden dice and handed it to Xiaoduo.
Xiaoduo played with it in his hands for a long time before saying softly:
"This dice is so beautiful and special..."
"I'll give it to you later, but not yet!"
Mr. Niu once told me that I cannot give these dice to Xiaoduo yet.
Let alone let her know the origin of this dice.
He was worried that Xiaoduo's fearless personality might cause trouble because of the dice.
After returning the dice to me, Xiaoduo suddenly said:
"Xiao Liuye, if you are not busy anymore, can you accompany me to visit Jinmen Guards?"
I was slightly startled.
Before she could speak, Xiaoduo continued:
"Grandpa Niu told me that he picked me up at the Jinmenwei station. I really want to see what kind of city it is..."
"Okay, I will definitely accompany you!"
Xiaoduo listened with a smile on his face and smiled happily.
"Oh, by the way. Xiao Liuye, can you tell me, do you like that Su Mei or the eldest daughter of the Qi family?"
Xiaoduo's question made me stunned for a moment.
Who do you like?
This is a question I've never considered.
Because in my subconscious, a con man like me walks on the edge of a knife.
There is today and no tomorrow.
I don't care about a romantic couple's one-night stand.
But love has become a luxury for me.
"Why do you ask this?"
A trace of worry immediately appeared on Xiaoduo's face, and she said softly:
"I think when you are with one of them, then it may be time for us to separate. Grandpa Niu has left me, and then you will also leave me. I really don't know, what should I do in the future?
Where to go..."
Xiaoduo pouted her little mouth, flashed her long eyelashes, and spoke softly.
Hearing such a pitiful tone made me feel nervous.
Looking at Xiaoduo, I whispered:
"Don't worry, we won't be separated!"
…………
In the blink of an eye, time has entered the twelfth lunar month.
The whole of Habei is freezing cold.
Zou Xiaoxian's Tianxiang Tower is still struggling to survive.
I basically go to Tianxiang Tower every day, and occasionally catch a thousand.
I usually give instructions to Mr. Hong on some Qian Shu techniques.
The days are passing day by day, and the New Year is just around the corner.
This evening, Su Mei and I were drinking tea in the office.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
I took a look and saw it was an unfamiliar number.
When the call was connected, a man's voice was heard from the other side:
"On the sixth day of the lunar month, I'm Zou Tiansheng. Do you have time now to come to Lan Baihui and let's have a drink?"
I never expected it.
The big boss actually called me.
After thinking about it, I agreed and said:
"Okay, wait for me. I'll be there later!"
After hanging up the phone, Su Mei asked curiously when she heard that it was the big boss who was looking for me:
"Why did the big boss suddenly come to you?"
Actually, I'm very strange too.
The big boss does not follow the blue path and is responsible for the legitimate business of the Zou family.
Ordinarily, the two of us have no intersection at all.
"I don't know either, let's go and take a look!"
"Okay, I'll make a call when I have time..."
With that said, Su Mei stood up.
Help me bring over the cotton clothes hanging on the hanger.
Walk up to me, like a little sweet wife.
He actually took the initiative and helped me get dressed.
"Xiao Liuye, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. You may not know the rules of Habei. On the New Year's Eve, no matter whose casino or gambling stall. In short, the boss of these openings, the person in charge
No matter what. The Zou family will gather these people together to drink and relax. No matter what grudges they have, they will put them aside temporarily so that they can make better money in the future..."
I didn't understand what Su Mei meant when she said this to me.
And Su Mei immediately continued:
"But this year, Habei has an extra elephant riding tower. Now the second boss and Xiaoxian are also at odds with each other. This year's New Year's Eve dinner may not be so easy to eat..."
I nodded slightly.
But what I was thinking about was what Mr. Zou and Mr. Wu once said to me.
What Mr. Zou is talking about is whether I can survive the first day of the new year.
Old Boss Wu told me that he was the senior brother of the Six-fingered Ghost Hand.
He is also the crook supported by the gambling king of Guandong, nicknamed the Qiankun Wind Chaser.
You want to come to me and help the Six-fingered Ghost Hand regain his face.
I will always remember the words of these two people.
