Chapter 43: A Game Within a Game

And at this time, the next room.

Bai Yicong was wrapped in a bathrobe, the air conditioner in the room was blowing a warm breeze, and the tips of his hair still had undried droplets, dripping down his open collar little by little, flowing all the way down his sexy Adam's apple and collarbone, with a slight cold breath.

When the curtains are opened, the large floor-to-ceiling windows reveal a view of the entire city. High-rise buildings and crisscrossed streets frame this not-so-bustling city, and the headlights and neon on the road have dimmed by nearly midnight, just as the shops downstairs have quieted down, leaving only rows of street lamps.

The night is great for thinking, and it is also easy to be pulled by the emotions that are ignored during the day.

Bai Yicong leaned on the sofa, picked up the mobile phone on the coffee table, and dialed the string of numbers.

But after three or two rings, the phone was quickly connected.

For a person like Liu Mu who does not leave his mobile phone, this is also completely a routine performance, and even his casual switch to the voice call to the video file is completely expected by Bai Yicong.

His cousin always has a bit of an inexplicable plot, probably because he looks good and likes to clean up, Liu Mu's handsomeness is undoubtedly recognized by all walks of life, so the more he has a drinking party or a social occasion, the more he makes that outfit bells and whistles, like a walking open screen male peacock, and he can't attract the attention of others.

For another example, because he was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, Liu Mu did not worry about everything, and often gave people the illusion that he was idle and painful. Because he was the youngest of his peers in the four veins of the Bai family, Liu Mu didn't think about fighting for anything at all. In the Bai family, he and Bai Yicong's friendship is also something that everyone knows, he doesn't know how to be restrained at all, but whenever there is a need to ask for the opinions of various families, Liu Mu is an emotionless approval machine - no matter what his cousin says, it is "Okay, okay, I agree".

When others asked, Liu Mu could still bend back with those beautiful peach blossom eyes.

"My cousin is the head of the Bai family, what's the matter, is it wrong to follow the leader's command? Say that I don't have an opinion, I still want to ask you, one or two are like thorns, people finally decide something, you all have a hundred words waiting, and the meeting that can be ended in half an hour is stunned back and forth for several days. Is it easy for everyone to get up early and come over every day, I still say the same thing, if you can do it, you come, if it doesn't work, it's over with cooperation, don't add to the chaos. Or are you just trying to make trouble?"

At first glance, this sound is fine, and it is quite in line with Liu Gongzi's arrogance and wantonness, but when you dig deeper, it seems that it is not a taste of how to listen to it.

Even the phrase "thorn head" seemed to mean something, so that Bai Mu deeply suspected that this was something that Liu Mu was deliberately hinting at, but it was not easy to be angry directly, after all, there was no evidence.

Sometimes the most uncomfortable thing is insinuation.

It is uncertain whether the speaker intends or not, but it is inevitable that the listener has the intention. Other people's words are put there, there is nothing wrong with being reasonable and reasonable, and it is obviously not the best way to deal with it again, and it will be fluttering if it is not even, "Did I say you, what are you anxious about, hey...... Is that what you really think?"

But it's not appropriate to pretend that you don't understand, everyone is smart, what does this mean, they all know each other, so in the end, they can only eat this dumb loss with grievances, and there is no way to do it.

So much so that later, Bai Mu didn't bother to find Liu Mu's unhappiness.

After all, he just rushed at Liu Mu's bastard boy's mouth, and he didn't care about it, and there was no cover between laughing and scolding, and in the end, it was himself who was not happy.

Looking at the Liu Group, it is a world where Liu Mu is arrogant enough.

President Liu Nanfeng is in the prime of life, and the affairs of the entire Liu Group do not need Liu Mu to spend a little more leisure, plus the relationship between Liu Nanfeng and Bai Yu is notoriously good, and there is only such a son who is like a baby pimple, it is destined that the huge family business of the Liu Group will eventually be handed over to Liu Mu, no matter how unfocused he is, he has to work hard to cultivate.

Probably because there are no near-term worries in front of him and no long-term worries behind him, Liu Mu's excess energy is put on useless things, as if this can prove something and make him live a more chic life.

The specific performance is that Liu Mu will complete the work conscientiously, and his talent is different, and he has a good ear and eye since he was a child, so whether it is dealing with the internal affairs of the group or in the field of antique appreciation, he is very prosperous.

Whether those partners are accommodating to him in every way because of the identity of the heir of the Liu family, or not mentioning the fact that they give him a little thin face because of the face of the little son of the Bai family, in short, Liu Mu has never talked about less business than others, and the popularity accumulated in the industry is also quite loud, no matter how much he is in his private life, it will not affect the fact that he is a young talent.

But because it all came so easily, it would be uncompetitive without any sense of pressure.

Liu Mu has no interest in making a fortune, he doesn't care about anything more, he is satisfied with the basic salary, he doesn't even want to fight for performance and bonuses, and he is full of peace of mind and waiting for death. It's as if he is not from the Liu family at all, and whether the Liu Group is good or bad has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't even bother to read the company's annual statements.

Others said a few words about him, and he also said: "What's the hurry, there is an old willow on top, within ten years, it will not be my turn to take care of these." ”

A few words silenced others.

This is true for one's own business, not to mention the pursuit of life, the pursuit of ideals, and the realization of self-worth. Not to mention beating chicken blood like blowing the wind in his ears, even if he poured a whole large basin of chicken blood on his head, Liu Dashao would not give any expression, he would only dislike the blood was too bloody.

And what fills Liu Mu's boring life is the endless variety of parties, the ambiguous objects that change from time to time, and the hobbies that are difficult to stick to. He wanted to try everything, but he didn't care about everything, from his hair to his fingernails, he was drunk and dreamed of death with a capital letter, full of the unbalanced aura of having wine today and getting drunk today.

It can be said that he has completely become the type that Bai Yicong is most unaccustomed to.

Although he was only two or three years old, his cousin's style of acting was too inconsistent with Boss Bai's aesthetics, and Bai Yicong automatically put himself on the identity of half a guardian, and habitually taught a few words, especially the tried and tested four-character mantra.

"Less talk and more action, a bit of pursuit. ”

"Bai Ye, what do you know, the joy of life lies in constantly trying, you haven't even tried, how do you know if you like it or not?" Liu Mu hooked up with Bai Yicong and talked about his own crooked reasoning and heresies, "Let me tell you, those who don't get it and talk about inappropriate people are, it's nothing more than a psychological comfort, make yourself look good, and finally you can pretend to leave a sentence, I didn't get it because I'm not rare- But if you really put real money in front of him, do you say he is rare?"

"What does this have to do with you?"

"The relationship is big, after all, I don't have two brushes like your Bai Ye, I don't try much while I'm young, do what I like, and make the sister I like, and I don't even have the capital to brag with my brothers in the future, what kind of life do you say, right?"

In this regard, Bai Yicong only thought that Liu Mu had not experienced the devastation, and he did not have a clear understanding of himself.

The relationship between the two cousins is very unusual, they know each other's personalities and habits well, they have been busy all day at this time, and Liu Mu is like a mirror as to why Bai Yicong made this phone call. As an opportunist who has always been very happy, Liu Mu certainly will not miss a good opportunity to invite credit from his cousin, he deeply feels that if he just captures the emotional changes from Boss Bai's few words, he can't see the reason for the pain in his brain, so he decisively chose a more simple and crude way and directly entered the video call mode.

Although, Bai Yicong's paralyzed face doesn't show too much emotion, so it's better than nothing.

So he didn't even discuss it at all, Bai Yi flashed from the mobile phone here, and Liu Mu's handsome face appeared on the other end of the screen.

His peach blossom eyes were full of a teasing smile, and before his cousin could speak, he took the first step to open the conversation.

"How about it, I'll do something, don't you feel at ease?"

"You're reliable. ”

Liu Mu is well versed in Bai Yicong's words and has to be combined with his own brain to listen to the truth, following Bai Yicong's side for so many years, he has been scolded for Stockholm syndrome, but whenever he sees his cousin's good face, he feels uncomfortable. And Bai Yicong's praise has always been tactful, and he has to think about it himself, as for this "you are reliable", rounding up is satisfied.

And obviously Bai Ye was in a good mood, and he even smiled a little when he couldn't look at his cousin.

"If you can treat the small projects of the Liu Group so seriously, you won't be criticized by your father all day long. ”

"I don't have to worry about the affairs of the Liu family, but you are my cousin, can the relationship be the same?" Liu Muda leaned back on the office chair with a grin, and said it as a matter of course.

"Let me tell you, cousin, I really don't have to pick when it comes to acting, Oscar definitely owes me a little golden man. That day, I fought wits and courage with Bai Wanyan, which was called a surprise, and I wanted to talk about it. I asked a friend's friend to ask her old customer to leave, and I saw the stitches go in. Even if something is wrong with her, she can't find evidence at all, so it makes sense to have multiple friends and multiple paths, so don't bury me in the future and make friends normally, okay?"

Today's auction is the game that Bai Yi has laid down.

Bai Mu only knew that Bai Yicong suddenly held this auction for He Manzhou, and the auction of the pocket watch was also for He Manzhou, and even because Bai Yicong thought a lot about He Manzhou's many special cases, he consciously caught the handle of others.

As everyone knows, all the news is just what Bai Yicong wants him to know.

After all, it's better to attribute all the abnormalities to feelings than to other things.

For example, the treasure behind the relict king.

"But, cousin, you're really generous, how can that pocket watch be worth five million?"

Although Liu Mu did not attend in person tonight, he was the organizer of the auction after all, and the auction ended only half an hour, and the big and small things that happened at the venue were directly transmitted to his ears. Among them, of course, there is such exciting news as Bai Yicong spending a lot of money and a Pomeranian.

"If I didn't know what was going on, I would have called you a long time ago, Bai Ye really didn't make a move, a shot is quite remarkable, when it comes to bubble sister means, I really convince you." Liu Mu's tone paused slightly, and said meaningfully, "Could it be a fake show, my cousin is really moved by my little sister-in-law, right?"

"Little sister-in-law?" Bai Yicong repeated in a low voice.

"Yes, if you really get along with He Manzhou, I won't call her sister-in-law?"

"It has nothing to do with her," Bai Yicong replied lightly, "I have another use." ”

"What's the use," Liu Mu was a little interested by Bai Yicong's flickering words, "Quick, don't hide it, tell me about it?"

But Bai Yicong obviously didn't tell him what he meant, he looked at the time, raised his eyebrows slightly, and felt a little surprised, there were still five minutes and twelve o'clock, and it was a good time for Liu Mu to play at midnight.

"I don't need to tell you yet, don't ask. Speaking of which, what's the matter with you kid, why are you at home today?"

"Okay, if you don't say it, you won't say it," Liu Mu knew Bai Yicong's temper, and even saved the steps of questioning, "In your heart, am I so hasty, don't you let me suddenly become angry and find a new meaning in life, so do you start working hard...... I'm fighting at night, showing myself with full spirit. ”

"Speak human words. Bai Yinever said mercilessly.

"What else can I do, I have something serious to do," Liu Muda grinned, the beautiful peach blossom eyes flashed a trace of brilliance very subtly, and then disappeared for a moment, and he handed the half-organized things in his hand to the side of the screen, with a bit of an invitation to merit.

"Help the people's teachers check the information, hey, I'm really doing serious things, I didn't lie to you. ”

"What kind of people's teacher?" Bai Yicong asked.

"She...... It's a long story, and I'll tell you when you come back. ”

I don't know if it's because of the current, Liu Mu's voice is very low, and he is a little smiling.

Bai Yicong actually felt that there seemed to be a rare tenderness hidden in it.
