Chapter 8 Zhucheng Conference
"Xuanyuan, Chiyou, Huangshi Heavenly Book, Hongmeng, where am I......"
Suddenly feeling a strangeness on his body, Liu Chen opened his eyes suddenly, only to see Lao Li sitting beside him with a peaceful face. The vigilance he had cultivated over the years had almost kept him awake from sleep.
"Master, why are you sleeping here? The night is so cold that you can easily catch a cold. Lao Li said with a concerned face. For Liu Chen, he is his leader on the surface, but in private he has always regarded him as his only relative.
Lao Li's real name is Li Yi, he has no relatives and no reason, and he has no worries in his life. I thought that I would survive in the extremely dangerous assassination mission, but I didn't expect that after meeting Liu Chen, all this changed. It was he who gave him hope to continue his life. Since then, Liu Chen has become the light in his life. The light is in the people, the light is in the people, and the people are dead!
Feeling Lao Li's deep concern, Liu Chen knew that he had made the old man worry again. Liu Chen suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and explained: "I practiced late last night, but I didn't expect to fall asleep. ”
"Hmm. Looking at Liu Chen, who was in his early twenties, Lao Li seemed to see himself forty years ago. At that time, I had a beautiful youth, a great future, and a ......
And what about him, covered in scars, endless tasks, extreme environments...... He didn't know how Liu Chen had come over the years; he didn't know what had supported Liu Chen to survive all these years; he didn't know what Liu Chen's life had been like over the years; he didn't know ......
Some "noble" people often say, "This world is fair." So why are some people born to live in Rome, while others live in war-torn places, in the ice and snow, and in dire straits. Why? The unfairness of life makes them struggle desperately at the bottom of society, and they are just ordinary people all their lives.
Tears flowed uncontrollably.
"Okay, Lao Li, why are you still crying? Next time I'm done, I'll go back to my house and sleep. Liu Chen hugged Lao Li and patted the old man's back and comforted.
"Really, a lot of grades, and so much sentimentality. It's really a joke. Lao Li also joked about himself at this time.
"By the way, Zhucheng will hold a triennial conference today. At that time, all the powerful and wealthy gentry in Zhucheng will participate. I didn't attend this kind of banquet in the past, but since I have returned to Zhucheng, I naturally have to let them know who the owner of Zhucheng is!", Lao Li said domineeringly.
"There are some people I really want to meet. Some things do need a closure. After so many years of calm in Zhucheng, it's time for a change. Liu Chen looked at the northwest corner of Zhucheng and said in a deep voice.
"I'm going to prepare the car. Let's leave after breakfast. ", Lao Li said kindly.
"Good. Liu Chen handed over the coat that Lao Li had covered with him before.
Today's Pearl City is particularly lively. Clean and wide roads, bustling crowds, and a constant stream of vehicles...... The fiery red sun also seems to indicate that today is extraordinary.
Vienna National Hotel, located in the bustling commercial downtown area of Zhucheng, with a height of 87 meters, a total of 30 floors and a construction area of nearly 20,000 square meters, is a four-star hotel integrating catering, guest rooms, business, conference, entertainment and fitness in one of the modern architectural decoration styles, which is also the highest four-star hotel in Zhucheng. The building is full of science and technology, the splendid hall, and the magnificent square. There are all kinds of fountains in the square: water jets rising from the ground, diamond-shaped net-like water curtains clustered around the water columns, cloud-shaped water balls, accompanied by melodious and beautiful music, and 24 trumpet-shaped splashes vibrating with the pitch of the voice.
Luxury cars that are rarely seen on weekdays: Sibel, Koenigsegg, LykanHypersport, Bugatti, Bentley, Ferrari, Rolls-Royce, Pagani, Lamborghini, Porsche, McLaren, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Maserati, are also parked in the parking lot next to the hotel. attracted people passing by to take out their mobile phones to take pictures and send them to Moments.
Liu Chen and Lao Li came very early, and because Lao Li rarely attended public banquets on weekdays, they did not attract the attention of others. Even if I saw the very conspicuous Rolls-Royce, I only thought that the rich people from other cities had come to Zhucheng to join in the fun.
"Lao Li, I'm going around, you can go and get busy with yours too. Liu Chen said to Lao Li.
"Okay, then you can call me if you have anything. I'll pick you up when it's time to eat. Lao Li nodded.
"Hmm. With a wave of his hand, Liu Chen turned around and left. Lao Li also walked into the main hall to meet an old friend after Liu Chen left.
Looking at the Pearl Lake in front of him, Liu Chen was full of thoughts.
The water of Zhuhu Lake is clear and turquoise, shining under the sun. On the shore of the lake, weeping willows are clinging. A breeze blew, the lake rippled, and ripples swam into the distance. In the center of the lake, a large lotus leaf is layered on top of each other, like a green bamboo umbrella. Among the lotus leaves, dozens of budding white lotuses stand tall on the surface of the lake, facing the early morning sun, like slim beauties. It is really "the lotus leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are different red." ”
A familiar shadow came into view at the right time.
"Morning!", Liu Chen shouted with a grin.
Aren't the people who are admiring the lotus flowers on the opposite side Lin Wan'er and Ye Jing!
"Good morning!", Lin Wan'er also waved hello.
Ye Jing frowned, and said in a low voice: "Why is this leper dog again!"
Obviously feeling Ye Jing's dissatisfaction beside her, Lin Wan'er naturally knew that she had a great opinion about Liu Chen's behavior yesterday.
Liu Chen walked over quickly, but ushered in Ye Jing's big eyes, and the disgust was self-evident.
Liu Chen turned a blind eye and smiled at Lin Wan'er: "It's really a coincidence today! Are you also here to enjoy the lotus?"
Ye Jing took a step ahead of Lin Wan'er and said, "Clever ghost." ", with a look of disdain. Is it really so many coincidences to deceive a three-year-old child!
"I happened to be passing by, came over and had a look. Lin Wan'er explained.
"What about you, did you come here to see it?", Lin Wan'er was very curious.
"I heard from a friend that the lotus flowers in Zhuhu Lake are blooming, so I came to take a look. Liu Chen replied.
"You are a big man and still enjoy flowers?", Ye Jing said dissatisfiedly to Liu Chen.
"No, no, no, there is a cloud: half a pond of childish lotus is extraordinarily fragrant!", Liu Chen looked at Ye Jing and said seriously.
Seeing Liu Chen's appearance, Ye Jing didn't know what to say.
"Definitely. Lin Wan'er nodded slightly in agreement.
Good times are short-lived.
"We still have some things to do, so we'll go first. Lin Wan'er apologized to Liu Chen.
"Okay, goodbye. ”
Watching Lin Wan'er and Ye Jing walk towards the Vienna International Hotel, Liu Chen knew that with their identity, they were naturally accompanying their parents to participate in the Pearl City Conference.
There are turbulent waves hidden under the calm surface of the lake, just like Liu Chen's heart at this time.
It's time to meet some of the clowns......
