The magnificent decoration, the melodious silk music, the intoxicating aroma, the exquisite and fragrant food... Of course, the most important thing is that Xiangxuehai searched the entire Dongyang, after strict selection, and several years of counting.
Hundreds of processes are carefully crafted to create a charming dream girl that can attract countless men and spend a lot of money on them.
In the eyes of men and women in the outer city, Ruby Sea and Xiangxue Sea are the kind of dream places where as long as you can go in and have fun for a night, you will die without regrets.
This is actually an illusion that 'grapes are sweet even if you can't eat them'. After all, it is a place that only exists to satisfy desires. Go to the Ruby Sea, Xiangxue Sea and solve problems with you using the cover of Youth Daily. The pleasure you get is actually
It’s pretty much the same, there can’t be any new tricks that ‘must come here’.
You see, Le Yu has never been to Xiangxuehai. In addition to the little virgin reason of being clean and self-sufficient, more importantly, when he saw the live scene of Xiangxuehai when he was criticizing Jing Zhengwei’s memory, he felt like ‘this is it’?
Therefore, more often than not, Hongyuhai Xiangxuehai is actually responsible for the secret attribute of ‘deep social interaction’.
In the Silver Blood Society, everyone is well-dressed, talking and doing human things;
When you go drinking, you can take off some clothes, say some drunken words, and talk about some drunken things;
When we come to the sea of red jade and fragrant snow, everyone can take off their clothes, talk like animals, and do the work of animals.
So, who exactly comes to Xiangxuehai often?
After all, people who come to Xiangxuehai are all silver-blooded people. If you really fall in love for a long time, you can just buy it and take it home. Just change the bus into a private car. Xiangxuehai will also hold new product recommendation activities from time to time. For example, Jing Zhengwei does it every month.
I came here to buy new products, and I didn’t stop shopping until I bought Qinglan.
Therefore, the people who often come to Xiangxuehai are definitely not the ‘lecherous’ ones imagined by those cloud players outside. There is only one reason——
He didn't want to put on his clothes.
Boom——
Luo Zhen pushed open the heavy and flashy door of Xiangxuehai and stepped step by step into this gold-selling cave that made countless silver blood bow their backs.
The Xiangxuehai that used to be a bustling place for day and night has been deserted. There are only scraps of food left at the bustling banquet, strings of silk and bamboo instruments are waiting to be played, and a few large ice cubes are lonely in the hall, exuding cold air. Only the dizzying atmosphere
The strange sleeping fragrance still spreads uncontrollably.
The boss of Xiangxuehai is smarter than anyone else. He knows that no one will come to visit Xiangxuehai tonight, and once the mob rushes into the inner city, Xiangxuehai will definitely become their number one target - Hongyuhai is also possible - so he must first
To ensure the safety of those precious commodities, we took the girls and hid them in a safer place early.
The guests had also gone home long ago, or fled, or just sat there and waited for death. In any case, they did not want to spend the last moment of their lives here in Xiangxuehai.
unless--
"Are you here waiting to die?"
Luo Zhen kicked off the wine bottle in the aisle with his long boots, looked at the lazy man lying on the soft bed in the center of the lobby on the first floor, staring at the contents of the glass, and said in a cold voice: "The Quan family is too lazy to look for you."
Quan Xin was only wearing a silver-white loose silk pajamas. He drank the wine in one gulp and said with a smile: "It's normal. The Quan family doesn't need a waste like me for a long time."
"There are no women here to play with you, and no one to drink with you, why are you still here?" Luo Zhen stood in front of Quan Xin, "The Luo Jiaquan family has decided to jointly suppress the unrest outside. If something happens, we will
Just rush out and gather the remnants from all over Dongyang, and plan a counterattack against Xuanzhu... I don't think they can suppress that group of mobs, the destruction of the inner city is already certain."
"Hey, is that right? You know a lot, the head of the Luo family." Quan Xin looked at the wine glass and said, "Then I, the head of the Quan family, don't know anything."
"With your appearance, how can the Quan family trust you?"
"Don't get the order wrong. They didn't trust me first, so I'm like this." Quan Xin adjusted his posture, leaned on the soft pillow next to him, and said lazily: "Actually, I don't care. I've been a waste for a long time.
I found that this feeling is really great.”
Luo Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly: "So, you just want to sink to death without even bothering to climb out?"
"Is there anything bad about death?" Quanxin said, "It's just a new journey."
As he said that, Quan Xin filled the wine glass with wine, then picked up a bottle that looked like a condiment bottle next to him, poured some gradient blue powder into the wine glass, mixed it well with his fingertips, and drank it all in one gulp. Luo Zhen watched lightly.
Sighed.
"You must have taken drugs and lost your mind."
Quan Xin shivered, and a slight blush appeared on his pale face: "If I were really stupid, it would be much better than now."
Luo Zhen finally couldn't stand it anymore and kicked Quan Xin directly in the face, knocking out one of his teeth: "Isn't it just that you only have the name of the family head but no real family head? Why are you here blaming everyone and living in a dream, feeling inferior and feeling sorry for yourself?
!?"
"Bah." Quan Xin spat out a mouthful of blood, with no sadness or joy on his face. He lay down on the soft pillow and said in a cold voice: "What can you, an only child, know? When you accused me, did you ever think about me?
Don’t you have the conditions you have?”
"Your father is about to die, right? My father is only forty-two, and my uncle is forty-four - do you know what this concept is?"
Quan Xin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "They will have to fight for at least ten years."
"Ten years, my life has only been two decades, and the past two decades have been used by my father to compete with my uncle - the governor Quanyuan, the head of the family Quanxu, and the Quan family is the only one who has
What a prestigious reputation in politics and business, but do you know what the price is?"
Quan Xin threw the wine glass at Luo Zhen, but his strength was too weak and he could only run to Luo Zhen's boots.
"There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. When it comes to interests, even brothers are ruthless. What's more, a business family like ours has never talked about relationships."
"It's just that they have been fighting for so many years, but they still can't overpower each other, so they set their sights on the next generation. Since I was a child, I have to do everything better than my cousins, and I have to overpower them in everything. Not only do I have to be successful in business
In order to achieve success, I even have to find ways to plunder my uncle’s political resources. It’s like a pen with two heavy ends, which has to keep spinning every moment without any room to stop.”
"I originally thought that when I came back from Linhai and took over as the head of the family, this game could be brought to an end." Quan Xin closed his eyes and exhaled a long breath: "It turned out that I was too naive and had some resentment.
It won’t end.”
Luo Zhen asked: "So because you don't want to continue to be a pawn in your father's fight, you linger in Xiangxuehai, and now you would rather wait here to die than go back?"
"have no idea."
"have no idea?"
"I just feel it's boring." Quan Xin pointed to the ceiling hanging from the gorgeous chandelier: "Politics is boring, business is boring, fighting is boring, and living is boring. This world is just fake, and nothing you do is meaningful."
"Sometimes I think of past events. I see my parents, you, and other people. I want to apologize to you and repent, but I can't remember why I want to apologize."
“Sometimes I feel tired after thinking too much, so I just don’t think about it anymore.”
"So, you go." Quan Xin stretched out his hand to cover his eyes to block the light: "I won't leave. Escape is too tiring for me, and the door of Xiangxuehai is too tiring for me.
Far."
Luo Zhen looked at the gate of Xiangxuehai, turned around and walked towards the door.
Boom——
After the rumble of the door closing, heavy footsteps approached again. Quan Xin raised his arm slightly and saw Luo Zhen sitting in front of him.
"Perhaps I'm crazy from taking drugs." Quan Xin said, "I actually saw that you haven't left yet."
"This is not a problem with the medicine." Luo Zhen said calmly: "You are sick."
"Sick?" Quan Xin said.
"Don't you want to ask how to cure it?"
"No energy."
"That's right." Luo Zhen nodded: "This disease is terminal. If it can't be cured, you can only wait to die."
"Really..." Quan Xin closed his eyes.
Luo Zhen took two wine glasses and filled them with wine, "I can't find the woman, but it's okay to drink with you."
Quan Xin took the wine glass and poured it into his mouth, letting the wine flow along the corners of his mouth.
The two of them sat and lay in silence for a long time. Luo Zhen suddenly asked: "Do you think there is someone behind tonight's riot?"
"I can probably guess who it is." Quan Xin whispered, "But I don't understand his motives."
"I also have a candidate who I suspect. I know his purpose, but I don't know how he wants to accomplish it." Luo Zhen said: "Is he looking for you to do something?"
"Yes, he wants to work with the patrol guards, and I can't command the Quan family, but I can still command the Quan family's dogs."
"He also asked me to do something. There are many Luo family business travelers, so he stuffed some people into the Luo family business travellers, and they went out of the city together."
Quan Xin let out a soft sigh: "So that's it..."
Luo Zhen sipped his wine glass: "Yin Xue will lose unfairly. His appetite is too big."
The two of them continued to drink one glass at a time in silence, until the wine bottle was emptied and noisy sounds could be heard outside.
Boom! Boom!
Xiangxuehai's soundproofing was very good. They could only hear the faint yelling and cursing outside, but they couldn't understand what was being said.
"It's time." Luo Zhen stood up: "We should go."
Quan Xin didn't say anything. He watched Luo Zhen knock over the wine bottle on the wine table, then took out a lighter and threw it on the tablecloth soaked by the wine.
The fire spread quickly and soon burned the curtains, wooden chairs, and carpets, sending out billowing heat waves.
However, in order to burn the two people sitting in the middle of the lobby, the fire obviously needs to be stronger.
"Don't you mind?" Luo Zhen sat down again: "If I could choose, I would prefer the beauty of being swallowed by flames, rather than the ugliness of dying under a pitchfork and a hoe."
Quan Xin stared at the ceiling with drunken eyes, as if he couldn't understand what he said.
"I have never dared to tell you." Luo Zhen said softly: "My love is heavy and dirty, and contains many unpleasant things, such as sadness, sorrow, self-pity, and despair. My heart is so fragile.
, I am always defeated by these negative emotions, as if I am struggling in a swamp and sinking deeper and deeper. I don’t want to drag you in, I would rather be swallowed up by myself.”
"It's just that I didn't expect that you would be swallowed up by me."
Quan Xin glanced at him sideways, with a reluctant arc at the corner of his mouth:
"I'm just drunk enough to understand what you say without feeling sad."
Luo Zhen looked at him calmly and suddenly said: "Perform that."
Quan Xin was silent for a moment, but did not refuse. He stretched out his hand to pick up the chopsticks on the banquet, held them between his index finger, middle finger and thumb, and then rotated——
Snapped.
The chopsticks flew out. Quan Xin looked at his right hand and was about to take it back when he saw Luo Zhen take out a double-tipped pen.
It's exactly the same as the one he used before.
Quan Xin took the double-tap pen and started spinning it on his fingertips effortlessly.
It keeps spinning.
Keep spinning.
Until the flames engulfed everything.
…
…
Le Yu fled to a familiar road.
This used to be a lively outer city street that he often visited, but now the streets are full of workers and civilians who are hunting for silver blood.
Almost subconsciously, he chose to take this shortcut in a dark alley that few people used, this hidden passage that he had often used in the past.
He walked, walked.
Finally stopped in the middle of the road.
In this dark alley that was difficult to cover with the street lights, Le Yu saw a familiar red-haired figure standing against the wall through the dim moonlight, as if he had been waiting here for a long time.
"If I say, I initially just wanted to destroy the tacit understanding that the workers and you have finally established."
"If I tell you, I didn't know that the common people would be determined to eradicate the Silver Blood Society, and they won't even let you go."
"If I say, I just want to recall the first time I met you, so I came here to revisit my old place."
"Do you believe it?"
Le Yu nodded: "I believe it."
"If White Night Walker had not made the 'right' decision and happened to meet a 'wrong' patrol guard, things would never have developed to this point."
"If things had not developed to this point, the reckless heroes among the common people would not have taken advantage of the situation, regarded me as a thorn in their flesh, and killed me quickly."
"If I hadn't gone through a series of chases and narrow escapes, and even used all kinds of trump cards, I wouldn't have escaped on this road with my life, but I would have died a long time ago."
"So, I believe this is all a coincidence like a fool of fate."
The red-haired man in the shadow chuckled and walked under the moonlight, revealing a handsome face.
