Chapter 190: The Past
The night passed.
The ringtone of the mobile phone woke up Li Banruo, who was sleeping groggily, opened his eyes and glanced at the electronic watch on the wall, it was only six o'clock in the morning, and when he came back to the bar last night, he had a drink with the fifth child before he went to bed at two o'clock in the morning, and he was woken up by the phone after only sleeping for four hours.
Touching out the mobile phone, Li Banruo looked at the uninteresting guy who called at this time, but after seeing the number of the caller, Li Banruo's expression instantly sank, it was the number of the ninth master, and the ninth master almost never called at this point in his memory, so Li Panruo answered the phone with a dignified face.
"Still asleep?" said the Ninth Master on the other side.
"No, what's the matter with the Ninth Master?" Li Panruo tried his best to make his voice sound more energetic, but because of the dry throat he had just woken up, it sounded particularly awkward.
Of course, the Ninth Master could hear the reason for Li Panruo's voice to change, but he didn't break it, but said: "The flight at ten o'clock, Bingluan and Qinghe are back, you go and pick it up." ”
Li Banruo was stunned after hearing this, and couldn't help frowning.
The Ninth Master listened to Li Panruo, who was silent on the other side, and said again: "It's a special period now, I don't want anything wrong, let you pick them up, I feel at ease." ”
After hearing this, Li Panruo put away the pimple in his heart, nodded and said, "Ninth Master, I understand, I will guarantee their safety." ”
The two sides hung up the phone like this, Li Panruo looked at the phone with a helpless face, sat on the bed for a long time, and then got up on the bed, put on clothes, washed up for a while, and went downstairs.
At the end of the morning run, Abin noticed Li Banruo's gloomy face when he went downstairs, and he was very puzzled, after all, Li Banruo was happy like a balloon that had risen to the sky sooner or later, although Li Banruo's temper was weird, but it was not so weird that he was moody.
The fifth and fourth children also noticed Li Panruo's expression, and the two of them were very interested in eating breakfast without saying a word, for fear of becoming Li Panruo's punching bag now.
Li Panruo sat down, touched a fritter and put it in his mouth, it looked like he had lost a million, and after solving the problem of food and clothing, he muttered: "Isn't it a good job?"
"Master Ban, what's the trouble?" asked the fifth child carefully.
Li Panruo sat on the chair with his head up, lit a cigarette and took a deep breath, then looked at the smoke and said, "Bingluan and Qinghe are back, and the Ninth Master asked me to pick them up." ”
After hearing this, Lao Wu also made a bitter face.
Ah Bin looked at the expressions of the two, and for a while he couldn't figure out what the origin of this Bingluan and Qinghe was, which could make Li Panruo, who had always been not afraid of heaven and earth, show this expression, he asked: "What is the origin of this Bingluan and Qinghe." ”
Li Panruo said to Abin: "The son and daughter of the ninth master. ”
Abin was stunned, he always thought that the ninth master did not have a family, because he had been in and out of the Jincheng Huafu many times, he had never seen anyone other than Na Gongkuan and the nanny, and he had never thought that the ninth master would have a son and daughter, but looking at Li Panruo's expression, it was obvious that these two were not fuel-efficient lamps.
Li Panruo saw Ah Bin's surprise and explained: "It's normal for these two ancestors to study abroad, and you don't know. ”
Abin nodded secretly, with the strength of the ninth master, it doesn't seem to be a difficult thing to send his children to study abroad, and the grievances about the ninth master are complicated, and it may be a good choice to send his children abroad.
"We'll go to the airport later. Li Banruo said to Abin unceremoniously, and it seemed that there was a bit of difficulty.
Abin did not refuse, but nodded very righteously, not that he planned to go to the sword mountain and sea of fire with Li Panruo, but that he was curious in his heart about where the two sons and daughters of the Ninth Master were sacred.
Li Banruo had breakfast, it was already past eight o'clock, the two did not stop, Li Banruo directly started the car and killed the airport.
From Xicheng District to Beicheng Airport, more than forty minutes away, and there are still two hours to go, Li Banruo did not drive in a hurry, but smoked vigorously.
"Why haven't you seen the wife of the Ninth Master?" Ah Bin finally couldn't help asking, this child who was born out of thin air made Ah Bin have more questions about the Ninth Master.
Li Banruo came back to his senses, perhaps because Abin asked this question, his expression was a little gloomy, and he muttered: "That woman died and had an incurable disease, what kind of disease it is, to be honest, I don't know, this was many years ago, and I also heard it." ”
Ah Bin also frowned, he couldn't imagine that there was such a story about the Ninth Master.
"Looking at your appearance, this Wei Bingluan and Wei Qinghe don't seem to be fuel-efficient lamps. Abin said.
Li Panruo shook his head and said, "It's not Wei Bingluan, it's Bai Bingluan." ”
Abin was stunned again, a little incomprehensible to what Li Banruo said.
Li Panruo saw the confusion on Ah Bin's face and explained: "I heard that since the death of that woman, this eldest young master named Wei Bingluan has changed his mother's surname to Bai Bingluan, as for what grievances this father and son have, I don't know." ”
Ah Bin's expression was a little more playful, and he muttered, "Ninth Master acquiesced?" After all, changing his surname is not a child's play.
The two had a big fight, so that the two sides had a cold war for many years, and the relationship had eased a little over the years, in the end, it was their own flesh and blood, and the ninth master couldn't do anything with Bai Bingluan, so in the end he could only let this little fool go. Li Panruo said, it seemed that between the words, he was very indifferent to Bai Bingluan.
Ah Bin had a very subtle change in his expression after hearing the two words, as if he felt that these two distant words were not very accessible, but he felt a little awkward, as if there was a sudden gap.
But as the son of the ninth master, the host of Xicheng District, there seems to be nothing wrong with being said to be a gentleman.
Li Panruo looked at Abin who was in thought, and continued: "The two major families in Xicheng District, the Bai family and the Liu family. ”
Ah Bin heard Li Panruo's meaningful words, and suddenly understood what he said: "The woman of the ninth master is the Bai family?"
Li Banruo nodded to Abin, who was still more brilliant at this time, and said: "The woman of the Ninth Master is the daughter of the Bai family, and there used to be some rumors on the road, saying that the Ninth Master relied on women to ascend the position, but now the Ninth Master has achieved a position above the Bai family, and these rumors have also been suppressed, but if there is no Bai family, the Ninth Master may not have climbed so quickly, although I worship the Ninth Master, but these things are facts." Li Panruo said that he was grateful to the Ninth Master, but it did not mean that he blindly believed in it, that might not only destroy him, but even destroy the Ninth Master, although the Ninth Master had never disappointed Li Panruo.
After listening to this, Abin thought about the impeccable Ninth Master in his memory, and suddenly felt that he only seemed to have seen the Ninth Master who was now in a high position and respected, and he had not thought about what this man had gone through, so that he had stepped from a small person who might be even more ridiculous than Chen Dongliang to this height.
What a bumpy road it will be.
"I can't imagine that there are so many stories behind the ninth master. Abin sighed.
"The ninth master has come to such a step, it is not easy for anyone else, this is the misfortune of the ninth master, and it is also the strength of the ninth master, so it will be admired by thousands of people in Xicheng District, I am not jealous of the current ninth master at all, because everything that the ninth master has now is what the ninth master deserves. Li Panruo said, because he also came out step by step, so he could imagine what the Ninth Master had experienced.
"Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and the same is true for the ninth master, this kid named Bai Bingluan is completely a heartless gentleman, and he doesn't cause much trouble, just the ass I wiped for him, I can't count it on both hands, and they all say that the tiger father has no dog, how to put it on this child, it will not work. Li Panruo muttered, this may be the reason why he thinks this is not a good job, and in a sense, he doesn't want to deal with this gentleman in his heart, but because this is the son of the ninth master, he must greet him with a smile.
"I can only say that this sentence is not a world of tiger fathers and no dogs. Abin muttered.
Li Panruo nodded with deep understanding, and then continued: "As for this Wei Qinghe, it is not a fuel-efficient lamp, this woman is very proud in her bones, and she looks down on me as a ruffian in her heart, in her eyes, I am not a person at all, not even a bedbug." ”
Looking at Li Banruo's extremely aggrieved but powerless appearance, Abin did not gloat this time, but after listening to what Li Banruo said, he sympathized with Li Banruo who was in a dilemma in the middle.
"Now that the Ninth Master has stood at the height of the Bai family, what is the relationship between the Bai family and the current Ninth Master?" asked Abin.
Li Panruo glanced at Ah Bin, who asked this somewhat harsh question, and didn't intend to hide anything and said: "Who is the Ninth Master, I believe you also know that the Ninth Master is a person who misses the old love, no matter how small the affection, he remembers it better than anyone else, let alone the Bai family." Although it is said that the Bai family was the head of the three major families in Xicheng District, but with the death of the old man of the Bai family, the prestige of the Bai family plummeted, and even faced the risk of being swallowed up by the Liu family for a time. ”
After Ah Bin heard this, the weight of the ninth master in his heart was a little heavier, he had experienced what Li Banruo said, if the ninth master didn't miss the old love, he wouldn't help him find the three-character sword, even if the ninth master directly turned him away, what could he do?
Maybe it's because this image is really too perfect, so that Ah Bin feels a little weird, but in the end Ah Bin still regards this as an illusion.
