Chapter 222: I Admire You
Shudu Tianfu, Xu family.
It was nearly one o'clock in the morning, but the lights were still on in one of the studies.
Xu Rourou, who was unusually athletic, sighed silently in her heart, raised her hand and knocked lightly on the door.
"Enter!"
With permission, Xu Rourou pushed open the door and walked in slowly.
Behind the desk, a woman who looked to be about thirty years old, wearing a silk nightdress, but was still sitting at the desk flipping through the papers, raised her head when she heard the voice, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of her mouth when she saw the visitor: "I'm back." How's it going?"
Xu Rourou nodded and said, "It's going well." β
It's just that after saying this sentence again, her face unconsciously showed a hint of hesitation. The woman behind the desk, that is, Xu Feng, the fifth president of the Hidden Dragon Society, couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong, Rourou?"
Pursing her lips slightly, although her figure is wide and strong, not only does it not give people any sense of disobedience, but also has a rare sense of feminine femininity, Xu Rourou, after thinking for a moment, still asked the question in her heart: "Auntie, does it make sense for us to do this? Even if that kid has potential, his surname is Du after all." Besides, Lin Zheng will watch us snatch people from him?"
Hearing this, Xu Feng first glanced at her, pondered for a moment, and then chuckled and said, "Okay, since you want to know, then I'll tell you." β
With that, she stood up from behind her desk and slowly sat down at the couch. After picking up the cigarette case from the coffee table, taking out a cigarette and dotting it, and then spitting out a mouthful of eye circles, Fang raised Erlang's legs and continued: "Rourou, in this world, there are not only two kinds of relationships: enemies and friends. For Du Fei, I never thought of making you friends with him. All we have to do is use him. So, don't bring family feelings into it, understand?"
Although the real age is 38 years old. But in fact, he looks about 30 years old at most. The figure is better than that of many young women around twenty years old, especially the slender jade legs, which are so slender that people can't help but want to reach out and touch them. At this time, because she was only wearing an ultra-short nightdress that could only cover her buttocks, after cocking Erlang's legs, Xu Rourou could even faintly see a black lace looming.
Her lips opened slightly, and she wanted to remind her aunt. But after thinking about it, he still held back, and nodded instead: "I understand." β
"As for Lin Zheng...", he stretched out the cigarette in his hand to the ashtray and dusted it gently, the corners of Xu Feng's mouth showed a trace of disdain, and he said lightly: "When we need him, he is the ninth president." If we don't need it, then he's nothing. β
Opening his mouth and spit out an eye circle again, Xu Feng's eyes played with taste: "It is Immortal No. 1 who controls Du Fei, but it is not him!"
In the eyes of these people, there are only a handful of people in this world who can resist the temptation of immortality. Who doesn't want to live longer, let alone without any risk. Therefore, no one doubted that Du Fei would choose not to try it after owning Immortal No. 1, let alone guess that he would be able to see the problems at a glance.
Of course, if it is under normal circumstances, with the thinking of ordinary people, it is indeed impossible to refuse. After all, whether or not you can increase your lifespan, one thing is certain. That is, it can really greatly improve the physical fitness of humans.
So, of course, no one thought about what Du Fei would do if he didn't drink it? What they were thinking about was how to take him into their own hands.
After all, the value of a future Qipin can no longer be measured in money.
Xu Rourou also does not doubt this. Therefore, after listening to my aunt's explanation, it suddenly dawned.
It turned out that even Lin Zheng was just a chess piece.
After everything was figured out, Xu Rourou nodded lightly and said, "Auntie, I understand." β
With a chuckle, Xu Feng snuffed out the cigarette in his hand, stood up and said, "If you understand, go back and rest early, it's not too early." β
Xu Rourou didn't leave in a hurry, but looked at Xu Feng who walked to the desk again in a daze, hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't hold back, and said the sentence that had been hidden in her heart for many years: "Auntie, aren't you tired?"
"Tired?" Xu Feng was stunned for a moment, and then smiled dumbly: "Why did you suddenly ask this question?"
"Because I think you're working too hard. Xu Rourou shook her head and said, "Auntie, you have done enough for the family, you should also think about it for yourself." Life only lasts one life, you can't always be like this, right?"
His thoughts suddenly drifted into a trance. After a while, Xu Feng suddenly smiled, and she said, "Okay, Rourou, I know." Go back and rest. β
β...β
It turned out like this...
On the other side, Zhonghai.
"Hello?"
"Huh?" Awakened from his memory, Du Fei looked at Li Yushan beside him a little blankly, and the latter rolled his eyes at him angrily and said, "What do you want?
"Uh..."Du Fei touched his nose and said, "It's nothing, it's just a little distracted." By the way, what are you going to tell me?"
"Oh..."Khan, as if angry?
With his eyes rolling, Du Fei suddenly high-fived and said, "By the way, I almost forgot to ask you." How was your conversation with Deng Siqi last time? Did she help you find a chance to meet Du Yuwei?"
Li Yushan glanced at him, and after a moment of silence, she shook her head lightly and said, "No." β
Du Fei was stunned when he heard this, but before he could speak, Li Yushan had already added: "It's not that she didn't help me, it's that I didn't let her do it." β
Du Fei was surprised: "Why? Isn't he your idol?"
Li Yushan pouted and said, "I told you that you don't understand." β
"..."Glancing at her with strange eyes, Du Fei couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
Li Yushan understood the meaning in his eyes, and couldn't help frowning: "Do you think I'm naΓ―ve to chase stars?"
Glancing at her again, Du Fei said calmly: "There is a little bit." β
"What do you know?" Li Yushan seemed to be very angry, and her voice was much louder: "I'm not chasing stars, I'm chasing faith!"
β...β
Du Fei didn't expect her reaction to be so big, and she was a little distracted for a while. It wasn't until a moment later that he slowly shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't be biased against your behavior. β
Li Yushan just glanced at him coldly, didn't speak, turned his head and walked forward. Seeing this, Du Fei could only smile bitterly and silently followed behind her.
A moment later, Li Yushan's voice suddenly came from the front.
"I know a lot of people envy me. I envy that I was born in the Li family, and my starting point is something that most people in this world can't look up to and reach even if they reach the end. β
"But they didn't think about what I had paid for it. β
"When other children grow up carefree and happy in the company of their parents, the only people by my side are nannies and maids. While other children were playing with the children in the kindergarten, sharing toys and playing games together, I was learning English, piano, etiquette, painting, calligraphy, dancing and tea ceremony. ββ...β
Du Fei looked at her back with a little surprise, and was a little speechless for a while. To be honest, he really hadn't thought about it yet.
Indeed, like many people, he used to envy Lin Hongyu, Sun Jianlin and Li Jianqing.
Since they were born, they are destined to become the object of many people's lifetimes in the future.
Especially when he was a child, his family background led him to make money when choosing a major in college.
Because he's really poor!
But now that she said this, if he was asked to exchange with the other party, would he be willing?
As soon as this thought came to him, he couldn't help but tremble, and an inexplicable sense of fear spread from his heart.
He shook his head vigorously. Du Fei said silently in his heart, forget it!
Just as Du Fei had just expelled this thought from his mind, Li Yushan's voice sounded again: "You may not believe it when you say it." I didn't even have a friend until I was eighteen!"
"How..."
Before the word "can" could be spoken, Du Fei suddenly remembered a funny comic he had seen. There is a plot in it, which is about a rich second-generation friend. The man is thinking about how to cheat him out of his money, and the girl is trying to trick him into registering for marriage.
He thought it was funny when he watched it at the time. But now, he suddenly couldn't laugh.
"Have you thought of it?" laughing at herself, Li Yushan said lightly: "A girl is still the daughter of a wealthy family." There is no right to free choice until they are minors. Because the elders think that she can't tell right from wrong, and she doesn't know what is good and bad. Same-sex friends are easy to bring her badly, and opposite-sex friends are even more dangerous. Therefore, any student who has ever wanted to get close to me, without exception, has transferred to another school. β
"By the time I finally reached adulthood and entered college. While other girls were busy in love, I had to start learning about company management. β
"Learn, learn, learn... From the age of two to now, these two words have never disappeared from my life. Everyone else is envious of me, but they don't know how much I envy them!"
β...β
Du Fei didn't know what to say. Truth be told, this life... It's painful indeed.
"So, chasing stars has become a way of life for you to release stress?"
With her back to Du Fei, Li Yushan slowly shook her head and said, "I said it, I'm not chasing stars." I am chasing Xiao Muruo, the courage and calmness that he dares to break all shackles and bravely pursue the true needs of his heart. β
β...β
What the hell is Xiao Muruo?
Du Fei hasn't watched much of the TV series, so naturally he doesn't know that this is a role played by Du Yuwei.
And at this moment, Li Yushan suddenly stopped and turned to face him. His eyes were unusually calm and said, "So." Du Fei, in fact, I also admire you. β
Hold the grass...
Why did you talk about it and suddenly it came up to me, and what the hell is this appreciation?
Du Fei's eyes widened, and he looked incredulous: "You, you... You're not kidding me, are you?"
Without the slightest expression of embarrassment or embarrassment on her face, Li Yushan shook her head lightly and said, "Don't get me wrong, appreciation doesn't mean liking." I admire you, but I still hate you. β
β...β
What the hell is this? Why can't I understand it at all?
