Bai Jingchun came out of the study, and when he finished washing and entered the bedroom, it was already half past ten in the evening.

Hongmen's industries are all over the world, and under the leadership of Bai Jingchun, after several years of operation, most of the industries have been successfully whitewashed. As far as the U.S. industry is concerned, even if S.H.I.E.L.D. comes to investigate, I'm afraid it won't be able to find evidence of illegal behavior for a while.

The current Bai Jingchun is the boss of a gang or the chairman of a super conglomerate. Although Hongmen is full of talents, and there are many professionals who graduated from famous universities to help manage it, the workload that Bai Jingchun has to deal with every day is still very large.

In many things, Li Furong is his brainchild. Hongmen's successful transformation in the past ten years has a lot of credit to her. Moreover, she proposed more than ten years ago to sponsor the children of outstanding disciples of Hongmen or Hongmen people to study every year. Over the years, it has also cultivated a large number of high-quality professional talents for Hongmen, rather than only knowing how to fight and kill.

Bai Jingchun looked at Li Furong, who was leaning on the head of the bed and reading, and said jokingly: "You haven't slept yet, you're not afraid of dark circles." ”

Since the two got married, their relationship has been very good. Bai Jingchun changed his wandering style before marriage, and never went to night clubs or bars except for socializing. Take care of Hongmen's affairs every day, and go home to eat with your family at night.

He not only brought Hongmen to a new level and was supported by the elders of the gang, but also ran his family warm and happy.

In recent years, Li Furong has basically left the affairs of Hongmen, become a full-time wife, and also teach a pair of children to be outstanding.

The daughter is already a sophomore at Stanford University, and the son is also regarded as a gifted teenager, who was admitted to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in advance and will be enrolled next semester.

In the past, these were all things that Bai Jingchun couldn't even think of. However, after he meets Li Furong, it all becomes a reality. Now, he's enjoying his current life.

"Why are you so busy so late today?" Li Furong closed the book in her hand and put it on the bedside table.

In recent years, the management of Hongmen's affairs has become more standardized and corporatized, and although Bai Jingchun is busy with affairs, he usually does not deal with Hongmen's affairs at night. After dinner, he chatted with his family and rested for a while, and when the children went to do their homework, he and Li Furong went to the gym to work out, discussing some things with her while exercising. Most of the time, life is very regular.

"The rat gave me a report on the battle for the treasure map today. Bai Jingchun lay down on the bed, took Li Furong into his arms, and continued: "The treasure map was taken away by the Japanese Black Dragon Society. ”

Li Furong heard a trace of unwillingness from his mouth, and said with a smile: "This matter is not over yet, you just wait and see, the Japanese may not be empty in the future." ”

"Although I am now in the United States, after all, I am a descendant of China, and I am still a little unwilling to watch the Japanese take away the treasure map. Bai Jingchun originally wanted to send Hong Wei's people to participate.

He planned to quietly take away the treasure map and send it back to Huaxia. However, after carefully weighing the forces of all parties, he felt that the time was still not ripe, so he gave up.

"Have you heard of a young master who wields soft swords?" Bai Jingchun asked Li Furong, "According to Zi Mouse's report, today is a young man who wields soft swords, forcing back the Bodhi Shuangshu of the Indian Bosha Gate and helping the Japanese. ”

Li Furong pondered for a while and said: "It is difficult to practice the soft sword well, unlike ordinary sharp swords, the soft sword has higher requirements for the control of force. Therefore, there are not many people who use soft swords in the rivers and lakes. As far as I know, the only one who can be regarded as a master is Ling Qiuping of Emei. The young man you are talking about is a newly rising master in the Japanese martial arts world. ”

According to Zi Rat, this person is not Japanese, but should be Chinese. Bai Jingchun was also very puzzled, he didn't know that there would be such a person before.

"Then it may be someone from the Xuanyuan Dragon Alliance. There is a young man nicknamed "Silver Fox" in the Xuanyuan Dragon League, who is good at using soft swords, but he should not be the opponent of Bodhi Shuangshu. If it was really him who forced back Bodhi Shuangshu, it meant that his realm must have been greatly improved. ”

"However, it doesn't make sense, it stands to reason that the people of the Xuanyuan Dragon League should be going to grab the treasure map, and there is no reason to help the Japanese?"

Li Furong groaned for a moment, and suddenly continued with some excitement:

"If it's really someone from the Xuanyuan Dragon Alliance, then it will coincide with our previous speculation. In other words, the Xuanyuan Dragon League saw the layout of the S.H.I.E.L.D. secret service and knew that the S.H.I.E.L.D. was going to borrow the hands of the Japanese to crack the secret of the treasure map, so they decided not to participate in the robbery. ”

"However, I don't want to see the Indians snatch it, because it might be extraneous. After all, if even S.H.I.E.L.D. is helpless, the chances of the Indians being able to crack the treasure map are even slimmer. ”

"Yes, I just discussed this on the phone with an elder, and he was inclined to that view. Bai Jingchun also agreed with Li Furong's analysis, and the previous discussion with the elders also came to such a conclusion.

He then said: "It is not surprising if the Xuanyuan Dragon Alliance has such a powerful young master, but it is not certain whether it is the silver fox you said or not. This treasure map competition has attracted the participation of warriors from many countries, and the importance that countries attach to this matter is also obvious. ”

"In addition, in the process of fighting, the Japanese also showed good strength. This is not only reflected in the fact that they eventually get to the treasure map, but more importantly, their ability to obtain information. Koreans have eaten a deflated, and it is estimated that there is a back hand, with the habit of a Korean stick, there should be a play to watch next. ”

When Li Furong heard this, she smiled and said: "People die for money, and birds die for food." If it is true, as the legend says, that there is such a large batch of treasures, even if it costs ten times more, there will still be people who will jump in one after another. ”

"However, this time, the pure underworld forces of various countries, including Japan's Yamaguchi-gumi, are not directly involved, and it seems that they are still very self-aware and know that they can't confront the state power department. And those involved, such as the Black Dragon Society, are inextricably linked with the country. In other words, there is the support of the state. ”

Then, she said seriously: "This matter, Hongmen still has to continue to stare at it." I think the same will happen to yakuza organizations such as the Yamaguchi-gumi. If one day in the future there is really a fight for the treasure, Hongmen can also help Huaxia if necessary. ”

"This afternoon, I have carefully considered where the national righteousness lies, and as a descendant of China, I have both the responsibility and the obligation to do so. ”

"Yes, that's incumbent on you. The improvement of Hongmen's strength in recent years has made some countries, including the United States, jealous. Therefore, in the future, we must be more low-key and cautious. Bai Jingchun was not arrogant because of his achievements in the past few years. On the contrary, after sitting in this seat for a long time, he has a feeling of trembling and walking on thin ice.

It is already difficult to survive, and it is even more difficult to achieve better development on the basis of survival.

Bai Jingchun continued: "In addition, Hongmen's cultivation of martial artists must also be increased. After all, if you want to protect yourself, you can't just keep a low profile, you must have enough strength, the strength to make them feel scared. ”

In other words, the US authorities should neither want nor dare to attack the idea of the Hongmen, let alone attack the idea of the Hongmen at will. Even in the era of thermal weapons, the strength of warriors should not be underestimated. Hongmen will abide by the bottom line, but it must have a certain ability to protect itself. ”

When Li Furong heard this, she knew that Bai Jingchun had a clear understanding of the current situation, so she changed the topic and said, "I heard that the Great Elder of Hongmen came to the United States?"

"Yes. Elder Cao has already come to the United States. Cheng Zongquan is in charge of New York, and his work is very busy, and he has a lot of work. His wife Cao Wei went to work in Boston again, and she was very busy with work, and she really couldn't take care of the five children, so she called the old man and his family over to take care of the children. Bai Jingchun said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the dignified Hongmen Great Elder would also be like an ordinary old man to help his children take care of their children." ”

Cao Wei didn't know that Cheng Zongquan and the old man were from Hongmen, and with her arrogant temperament, it was not polite to arouse her father. Li Furong thought about the appearance of the old man with the child, and she also wanted to laugh.

Back then, it was Elder Cao who advocated Bai Jingchun to ascend the throne. At Bai Jingchun's age, although he had outstanding achievements, he still encountered great pressure within Hongmen.

However, in fact, it proves that Old Man Cao's vision is very vicious and he sees people very accurately. In the past ten years, Bai Jingchun's performance has indeed been remarkable. Even some Hongmen bigwigs who questioned it at the beginning are now convinced.

Bai Jingchun has always been grateful to Elder Cao for his kindness. Although his own father was also one of the bigwigs of Hongmen back then, without the support of Elder Cao, it would be impossible for him to sit smoothly on the position of the leader of Hongmen.

Therefore, he has been very concerned about the affairs of Elder Cao's family over the years, and often helps to take care of some things in person. He also introduced his sworn brother Cheng Zongquan to Elder Cao's youngest daughter Cao Wei. Unexpectedly, the two really looked at each other, and since they got married, they have lived happily and harmoniously.

"Cheng Zongquan's ability is good, he has taken care of the work in New York in recent years, and he is also very stable, I want to train him well. Bai Jingchun was quite satisfied with his brother-in-law's ability. Moreover, Cheng Zongquan attaches great importance to love and righteousness, and he is also loyal to Hongmen.

Back then, Cheng Zongquan worked under his father Bai Fusheng, and once was ambushed in a nightclub. After the doctor's examination, Cheng Zongquan was stabbed seventeen times and lay in the hospital for three months before he was pulled back from the door of death. Since then, the two have married Jin Lan.

This time, Elder Cao came to the United States, and it was the opportunity for Bai Jingchun and Cheng Zongquan to pick them up together. Bai Jingchun flew from San Francisco to New York to pick up the plane, which shows that he has great respect for Elder Cao.

"Your brother is indeed a loyal man. Although Li Furong rarely directly participates in Hongmen affairs, she still knows very well the situation of some important people in Hongmen.

She paused for a moment, and then said: "The day after tomorrow is the fourth uncle's birthday, and I have already booked his ticket, don't forget to pick it up when the time comes." ”

"I can't forget. Bai Jingchun said: "I called the fourth uncle today. It just so happened that my father had also returned, and the two of them had a good reunion. Turning back, you have the guest room properly tidied up. ”

"By the way, is our daughter in love?" I just walked past her door, and I heard her seem to be talking on the phone in the room, and saying that she would not be separated tomorrow. ”

Li Furong said angrily: "What are you doing when you have nothing to do eavesdropping on the child's phone call? When the child is older, isn't it normal to fall in love? Besides, she is not in love." They were going to Silicon Valley tomorrow to pitch a startup project, and they had been preparing for more than a month. “

"Oh, I see. Then why doesn't she fall in love?" Bai Jingchun heard and asked rhetorically. He was completely unaware of the contradiction in his attitude.

Li Furong listened to it and said with a smile: "Hey, I said Lao Bai, you are worried about your daughter falling in love, and you are making a fuss if you don't fall in love." Really. “

The two chatted a little more about their parents, and then rested.

No matter how beautiful people are outside, when they return home, they are faced with their wives, children and other family members. The daily chores of the family and the contacts of people are what everyone must face, from the president and the prime minister to the peddlers and pawns, without exception.

For everyone, in daily life, there will be both stumbles and happy laughter. However, life is never like in the movies, always ups and downs and colorful.

Life is a cup of weak tea, you need to taste it carefully to experience its sweetness and freshness.
