Chapter 6 Calls from the capital
On this Chinese New Year's Eve, the extraordinarily lively Liu family villa can be regarded as happy and harmonious.
Drinking the wine in the cup, Liu Xianxiang's eyes began to blur, this year, undoubtedly for him is a turning point in everything, the new order ushered in by Xicheng, and he has also come to the light from the secret, although there is no time for him to flirt with those vases, and there is also no time to continue to mess with his group of fox friends and dogs, and even the capital circle that he carefully maintains, he has not contacted too much.
Everything is because he is too busy, so busy that Liu Xianxiang can't breathe, but it makes Liu Xianxiang feel alive for the first time, which is a kind of fulfillment that has never been experienced, which makes Liu Xianxiang fascinated by it.
He noticed Liu Jincheng waving at him not far away, and he quietly left the junior table.
Thinking about the balcony of the villa, Liu Jincheng was holding on to the wooden guardrail at the moment, with his back to him, Liu Xianxiang walked up lightly, after these days of polishing, Liu Xianxiang has a kind of heartfelt worship for his father, and it is precisely because of Liu Jincheng's guidance that he can progress by leaps and bounds.
"Do you feel the taste of this rivers and lakes?" Liu Jincheng said with his back to Liu Xianxiang, in front of him is the brightly lit city, and behind him is the happy Liu family, and the man in the middle has used his backbone to prop up such a piece of the sky, which is originally a thing worth singing, but in a so-called family, this is just a normal thing.
Liu Xianxiang nodded vigorously, and then said: "Dad, this Jianghu is much more interesting than I imagined, although I am too tired to live, but compared with these swords and swords, my drunken gold fans in the past are really pediatrics among pediatrics." β
Liu Jincheng listened to Liu Xian's analogy, a few smiles appeared on his face, and he nodded secretly and said, "The more interesting ones are still to come, but whether you can digest everything is another story." β
When Liu Xianxiang heard this, although it was a warning, he said confidently: "Dad, you can't help but look down on your son a little, now I can control the position of black consul." β
Hearing this, Liu Jincheng shook his head secretly, and there was a little bitterness in his heart, the reason why Liu Xianxiang was able to be so smooth sailing was entirely because there was a Liu family behind Liu Xianxiang, and now in the entire Xicheng, if Liu Xianxiang was to be dumb, he would not be able to weigh it?
Obviously, Liu Xianxiang is a little too confident, so confident that Liu Jincheng feels a little bit of crisis, because these days, he is indispensable to pave the way on Liu Xianxiang, but he didn't directly break anything, because even if he scolds Liu Xianxiang into a puddle of mud now, it doesn't have much effect, because the needle didn't pierce Liu Xianxiang's body, Liu Xianxiang will never know how much pain it is, and the process of growing up is painful, although this sentence sounds a little too absolute, but Liu Jincheng feels that there is nothing wrong with it in his heartγ
"Li Banruo is recruiting. Liu Jincheng changed the topic and said.
"I know. Liu Xianxiang nodded back.
"What do you think?" asked Liu Jincheng.
Liu Xianxiang scratched his head, then lit a cigarette and said: "Under Wei Jiu's hands, Li Banruo can really calm down, and he is willing to be a spectator, but I didn't expect that he was in a hurry just after the change of dynasty, and he could only say how long the ambition was pent up, and how terrible it would be to break out." β
Liu Jincheng nodded slightly, as if he agreed with Liu Xianxiang's statement, because in his opinion, Li Banruo's ambition was indeed groundless, and the only thing that could be explained was the monstrous resentment accumulated over the years.
"Keep an eye on him, if he continues to develop like this, he is destined to become a threat, but don't cross the line, after all, behind him, there is a horse gentleness. Liu Jincheng said to Liu Xianxiang.
"Do you want to try to win over him? I don't have any uncommon hatred with him, and I can talk to the point of being able to talk at the same table. Liu Xianxiang thought of Li Banruo's various feats, and thought that he was going to go against such an absolutely desperate ruffian, and he felt a little pressured.
Liu Jincheng glanced at Liu Xianxiang, who had a bit of opportunity on his face, and said coldly: "A wild dog is always just a wild dog, even if he is sitting in such a position now, but he is just a wild dog, and cooperating with this kind of person will not lead to any good results." β
"I see. Liu Xianxiang nodded and said, thinking about the intricacies of Xicheng, it is true that his thoughts just now were a little too naΓ―ve.
"Before doing things, you have to go through the brain three times, the first time is to know what you have to pay to do this thing, the second time is to understand what you can get, and the third time is to sort out what others can get. Liu Jincheng slowly exhaled a breath and said to Liu Xianxiang, who was a little restless because of the smooth wind.
Liu Xianxiang remembered this sentence deeply in his bones.
Liu Jincheng finally patted Liu Xianxiang on the shoulder, and then left, leaving Liu Xianxiang alone to face the huge night scene of Xicheng.
The richly dressed woman waited for a long time not far away, and when Liu Jincheng passed by her, he whispered, "Let him stay by himself for a while." β
The woman nodded lightly and looked at the lonely Liu Xianxiang, with a hint of distress and pampering in her eyes.
Liu Xianxiang flicked off the cigarette butt and lit one again, recalling what Liu Jincheng had just said to him just now, and trying his best to remember and sort it out.
In the end, he thought of the guy named Li Banruo, he couldn't help clenching his fists, he could feel that his body seemed to be desperately resisting the name, this was a kind of fear from the heart, which made Liu Xianxiang feel a little unhappy and angry from the bottom of his heart.
He is Liu Dashao, who is well-known in Xicheng, and he has such a fear of such a ruffian, which Liu Xianxiang definitely does not want to admit.
Perhaps unconsciously, he has regarded the guy who is out of the limelight as his biggest opponent.
"Tick tick... Tick tick..."
The ringtone of the mobile phone interrupted Liu Xianxiang's thoughts, he took out the mobile phone, looked at the caller number, and squeezed out a few smiles on his face that was originally full of annoyance, because the person on the other side of the phone was the person he had to smile again, he answered the phone and smiled kindly: "Minister, Happy New Year." β
"I said Liu Shao, don't you look down on me in such a circle, and you are reluctant to call me for such a long time. It sounded very noisy on the other side of the phone, and in the midst of such a noise, Minister Wang said very playfully.
Liu Xianxiang frowned slightly, because the meaning of Minister Wang's words was already very obvious, and he tried his best to say in a calm tone: "Xicheng is not peaceful for a while, and it is a person from the capital who is making a move here, don't you smell something?"
"I really don't care, tell me what's going on in Xicheng. Minister Wang said very curiously, after all, for him, Xicheng was originally a small pool of muddy water, where did he have any spare time to care.
Liu Xianxiang listened to Minister Wang's side gradually quieting down, and he didn't intend to hide it deliberately, and whispered: "Ma Wenrou's name, I don't know if you've heard it?"
Minister Wang, who had just lit a cigarette after leaving the carnival crowd, when he heard the name Ma Wenrou, he seemed to be a ghost, and immediately said in a messy tone: "This is a woman who eats people and doesn't spit out bones, did you hook up?"
"I'm not her opponent, she's the big boss of Xicheng now, Wei Jiu is dead, and she inherited Wei Jiu's position. Liu Xianxiang said in the most concise words.
"I'm obedient, I didn't expect such a change to take place in Xicheng, and now the Liu family won't also bow down under her hands, right?" Minister Wang said playfully, perhaps because the name Ma Wenrou was mixed in, making him feel that everything was interesting.
"What do you say? I'm working on her now, and I'm in dire straits. Liu Xianxiang said with a sad face, with a thick resentment in his voice.
Minister Wang on the other side of the phone laughed, probably thinking of Liu Xianxiang's situation, and he said very boldly: "Hurry up and I'll take the time to meet that female devil, I have more or less a friendship with her, and when the time comes, we won't be easy to bully, right?"
Liu Xianxiang readily agreed, and then the two of them exchanged pleasantries, and the call from the capital was clicked.
Hanging up the phone, Liu Xianxiang's face was a little more playful, he did not directly refuse Minister Wang's so-called kindness, because Minister Wang's strength is obvious to all, it is a circle where Ma Gentle needs to be weighed, and the so-called fox fake tiger power is nothing more than that.
On the other side, Minister Wang put down his mobile phone and said with disdain: "Smart guy." With that, he returned to his seat, and at this table were Zhu Sha, Zhou Bingcheng, Mu Changqing and others, all of whom were first-line gentlemen in the capital.
"Do you remember Ma Wenrou?" said Minister Wang, intentionally or unintentionally.
Zhu Sha heard Minister Wang's muttering, and knew that there was nothing good in this guy's stomach, so she said impatiently: "If there is a fart, let it go." β
Zhou Bingcheng and Mu Changqing also noticed Minister Wang from such a hustle and bustle, perhaps because the word Ma Wenrou was very sensitive.
"I heard that she became a big boss in Xicheng, and Wei Jiu also entered the ground. Minister Wang didn't sell Guan Zi either, and said directly.
After Mu Changqing heard Xicheng, he narrowed his eyes slightly, perhaps because that place reminded him of a woman, and Zhu Sha and others showed the same expression as him.
"Interesting, what is this female devil brewing?" Zhu Sha muttered, of course she knew what kind of person Ma Wenrou was, and she was also a little famous in the capital.
Mu Changqing had a solemn expression, as if he smelled a trace of disharmony, got up and looked at the picturesque part of the capital, and said softly: "It seems that careerists are starting to get restless." β
