Su Mei tried her best to suppress her emotions, looked at me and asked.
"My place!"
"impossible!"
"How is it impossible?"
I asked further, and Su Mei was silent again.
And I was not in a hurry. I lit a cigarette and took a long puff slowly.
I once had trust in Su Mei.
But since I found out that she actually knows a thousand arts, this trust has been greatly reduced.
And now, the gambling boat is about to start.
Zou Tiansheng is watching with eager eyes, and people from all walks of life in Fengtian are eager to try.
Therefore, I cannot allow myself to make any mistakes.
Otherwise, I will be the one buried in the river.
After being silent like this for a long time, Su Mei slowly spoke:
"Chu Liu, do you believe me?"
I smoked silently and didn't answer.
My silence obviously made Su Mei feel a little disappointed.
After looking at me, she continued:
"Okay, whether you believe me or not, I want to tell you. No matter who sends you this place, you can't accept it..."
Su Mei's words moved my heart again.
She already knew that this place was given to me by someone else.
Could it be that Su Mei already knew that the Qixiang Tower belonged to Mr. Zou?
But I remain silent because I know.
Even if I ask, Su Mei will never answer me.
"On the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, I know that you are extremely skilled, I know that you are thoughtful, and I know that you are as stable as a mountain. But after all, you have only been in this world for less than a year, and you still don't know how sinister and dirty this world is.
…”
After saying that, Su Mei sighed and continued:
"The world is bustling with profit coming and going. How many people in this world have stained their hands with blood and stepped on bones for the word 'profit'. They treat all living beings as ants for them to carry money. In the short term, they may have gained wealth.
.But what if we look at it in the long run? What will be their final outcome?"
"If you don't talk about others, let's talk about Mr. Zou. He worked hard all his life and accumulated a lot of wealth. But what happened later? He wanted to clear his name and go ashore, but the result was that everyone betrayed his relatives and died with regret..."
Su Mei has said similar things to me before.
Every time, what she said was true and sincere, but this time I was a little surprised.
Because I feel that Su Mei seems to know more things than I imagined.
After calming down, Su Mei said again:
"On the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, trust me once. You can make a fool of yourself, you can play tricks. But you can never take over the situation. You must remember that in this world, you must find a way to protect yourself..."
I was still smoking indifferently and did not answer Su Mei's words.
I never thought about taking over Qixianglou.
Because Mr. Liu once said something similar to me back then.
You can find a sponsor, you can set up a trap, but you can never take over the situation.
Although I don't know why Mr. Liu said that.
But I firmly believe that Mr. Liu must have his reasons.
And the reason why I told Su Mei this today.
In fact, it is a kind of temptation.
What I'm particularly afraid of right now is that Su Mei is a chess piece planted by my opponent in advance.
My indifference made Su Mei feel a little disappointed.
She got up, put on her coat, took her handbag, and was ready to leave.
As she passed by me, she gently raised her hand.
Green-white jade fingers gently rested on my shoulders.
Her voice had a hint of resentment.
"On the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, I don't know if you still remember. I once told you that I will never harm you. This sentence is still valid now. Also, don't let Xiaoxian know about our conversation today...
"
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Mei turned around and left.
Looking at Su Mei's lonely back, all kinds of past events appeared before my eyes.
Should I believe her or not?
For a moment, I was a little confused.
…………
Hong Ye's side is going very smoothly.
He pretended to be Zhao Xiaoxiao's college classmate and got in touch with Zhao Xiaoxiao's boyfriend Gao Zhiquan.
The most important thing is that the two of them played well.
After playing mahjong several times, Mr. Hong not only lost 70,000 to 80,000 yuan.
Moreover, he also borrowed 50,000 yuan from Gao Zhiquan at high interest.
Of course, this is all a deliberate trap.
The money you win from us will have to be repaid twice as much.
At noon that day, Mr. Hong crawled out of bed.
He stretched out, yawned nonstop, took his cell phone, came to the living room to look for me and said:
"Master Xiaoliu, the grandson named Gao called me again and said there was a game in the afternoon. He asked me if I could go..."
"Go, we've almost raised enough. Try to close the net today!"
"Okay!"
Mr. Hong and I discussed the plan to close the net again and decided to go to the station on time.
On the way there, Mr. Hong received a call from Zhao Xiaoxiao.
Master Hong specifically pressed the speakerphone, and heard Zhao Xiaoxiao's worried voice coming from the other side:
"Yonghong, why should I listen to him? You went to play cards with him, lost a lot of money to him, and still owed him fifty thousand yuan?"
I listened on the sidelines and secretly admired him in my heart.
I had only known Mr. Hong for a few days, and I sounded like I was worried about Mr. Hong.
Mr. Hong said nonchalantly:
"Don't worry, it'll be fine. But you haven't said anything yet, what exactly is he threatening you with?"
Zhao Xiaoxiao was silent for a moment and then said:
"Yonghong, don't blame me. I really can't say it now. I'm afraid that if I say it, I will lose my job..."
Although I never went to college.
But I know how difficult it is to study medicine.
Zhao Xiaoxiao is just an ordinary person, and this job is too important to her.
But her words made Mr. Hong and I couldn't help but look at each other.
Both of us felt that this matter was probably related to the death certificate.
While talking, they had already arrived at the place agreed upon by Gao Zhiquan.
This is an ordinary two-story shop facing the street.
On the door of the shop are five golden characters "Zhenyuan Pawn Shop".
Although I have seen some pawn shops before.
But what I didn’t know was that this was actually one of the first loan companies in Habei.
As time went by, the pawn shop slowly disappeared.
Gradually it evolved into various financial companies.
But what we actually do is all kinds of lending business.
Until the rapid development of the Internet, these companies began to move online.
The procedures are simpler, but the routines are deeper, and it has become a nightmare for groups of people.
Mr. Hong was beside me and whispered:
"This pawn shop is run by Gao Zhiquan. It is said to be a pawn shop, but it is actually engaged in loan business. I heard Zhao Xiaoxiao say that he has some money that he lends to some casinos and some money that he lends to ordinary people.
Ordinary people. It is said that the interest rate is very high. He has made a lot of money in recent years..."
Although Mr. Hong has already told me something before.
But I was still a little shocked.
A bank employee actually started this kind of business.
