Chapter 190: Hongmen Banquet
It's a pity that many things are not as simple as Liu Xuan imagined. Although the IQ of the two gold and silver brothers is not high, they are still more persistent, and some things will be much more complicated than imagined once they are on the bar.
After agreeing to the gold and silver brothers to go to dinner, Liu Xuan's mobile phone happened to ring, and he made an excuse to leave. Anyway, I don't want to stay with those two young masters.
The rest of the gold and silver brothers didn't say anything, just smiled and looked at the background of Liu Xuan's departure. Then the two of them walked back to their room together.
"Big brother, do you think our plan will work?"
"Of course, Liu Xuan has always felt that we are timid, and with the previous incident, he would not easily think that we would directly investigate what happened to the Liu family back then. ”
"But this Liu Xuan also deserves it, if it weren't for his appearance, Jin Yue would have been able to marry the Qian family smoothly. When the time comes, we can also take the car of the Qian family and make steady progress in our official career. ”
"Yes, since he was the one who broke the matter, then he should pay the corresponding price for it. It's just that the last time we underestimated him, he still has some ability, and grandpa has a good impression of him. ”
"Although the stealing of the painting did not succeed in deducting his head, it can be regarded as allowing us to find out his way. At least we know that he himself was single-handed, without any reserves. As the only remaining person of the Liu family, he was really bold enough to come to the imperial capital like this. ”
"Hmph, we were reprimanded by my grandfather for that incident, but fortunately, my father didn't think we did too much. It seems that he doesn't like Liu Xuan very much. I don't know what Grandpa thinks, how can a Liu Xuan be compared to the Qian family?"
"I think grandpa is a person who misses the old love, maybe because of the relationship with the Liu family back then. However, no matter how good the relationship between the Shangguan family and the Liu family is, it is still in the past. Without the family to rely on, Liu Xuan is nothing, just a piece of mud, and no one will be rare at all. ”
"It's a pity, our sister doesn't have a good eye, I don't know why she was blinded by lard, and she would like such a person. If she is willing to choose the Qian family directly, wouldn't it be more convenient for us?" Shangguan Yinyang complained.
"It doesn't matter anymore, anyway, we have already contacted the Sun family, I don't believe it, this time Liu Xuan still has the life to go out. You must know that the hatred between the Sun family and the Liu family is not a matter of one or two days. And the Sun family slaughtered the Liu family back then, but they didn't expect to miss this Liu Xuan. ”
"But, after all, it's the Sun family, and it's not an ordinary person, will it be used by us? We and Liu Xuan are just personal grudges, and we took the initiative to find the Sun family, will they be suspicious?"
"What do you suspect? Although we found the Sun family because of personal vendettas, the Sun family is not stupid, they have already investigated us before agreeing to our request. I guess I know what we want, but it doesn't conflict with theirs, so why don't you agree?"
"I see what you mean. You mean, against Liu Xuan, they are not only doing their own things again, but because we took the initiative to find the other party, they can be regarded as owing the Sun family a favor. For the Sun family, there is simply no better deal than this. ”
"yes, that's what you understand. We just did a small thing and told the Sun family that there was an heir of the Liu family alive, and they would definitely cut down the grass and eradicate the roots. We just did a small thing, but it was enough for the Sun family to take action. ”
"This Liu Xuan is also strange to deal with, I originally thought that the previous game would be able to kick him out of the Shangguan family, but in the end, he still let him crack it easily, and actually kicked us to the iron plate. ”
"So what, isn't it interesting to have more enemies like this? Only a strong opponent is worthy of our brothers' own attack. This time, we are also trying to set up a game, and then he will know that this is a Hongmen banquet, but it will be too late. ”
"Haha, when the time comes, let him go in vertically and come out horizontally. We have already said hello to the Sun family, they have designed a triple prevention, no matter how powerful Liu Xuan is, it is impossible to solve this game easily. ”
The two brothers of gold and silver had a very lively discussion in the room, of course, no one in the Shangguan family would know about all this except for the two of them. For this matter, both of them have been cautious recently, for fear of being suspected.
As for Liu Xuan, who was in Shangguan Jinyue's bedroom at this time, holding the box of pastries and looking at them.
The meeting was almost over, and suddenly someone asked: "President, we were very serious during the meeting, now that the meeting is over, can we ask some irrelevant topics?"
"Yes, but I won't answer any unrelated gossip. It mostly depends on my mood. Shangguan Jinyue replied with a smile. Actually, she would be in a good mood, and Liu Xuan had been sitting opposite her since he came in, and he had been watching her.
"What's going on with someone knocking on the door just now? The service of the hotel? And then there is no movement at all, are you really staying in the hotel?"
"Of course, where else could it be? It's just a waiter at the hotel, and I asked someone to buy pastries, and the waiter brought them to us. As he spoke, Liu Xuan lifted the box and shook it in front of the camera, "See? ”
"Oh, then Vice President Liu, will you bring us a gift when you come back from a business trip?
Liu Xuan looked at the pastry box, fortunately they didn't know what brand this pastry was, otherwise they would have goofed it. So he replied, "Of course, we decide what to bring, and when the time comes, we will buy what we see good." There will be food and play, and you are not allowed to choose. ”
In the end, in the midst of the fight, the video was hung up, and Liu Xuan put away the other equipment.
"What kind of food is this, who sent it?" Shangguan Jinyue asked as she looked at Liu Xuan.
"I know I can't fool you. ”
"Of course, if it's just ordinary food, sent by ordinary people, then you just take it in. But you went out to talk for a while, and then you went straight outside, and then came back after a while. I guess it's more than just a box of food. ”
"This is sent by your two elder brothers, saying that it is a famous pastry in the imperial capital, oh no, it is Hong Kong-style, made by a master, but it is only here to communicate, and it is not often eaten. ”
"How can they be so kind? It's not poisonous, is it? I always think it's weird. ”
I thought it was weird, too, so I had a brief chat. It turns out that the last time I was framed for stealing a painting, they were reprimanded by the old man, and then the two of them may have learned a certain lesson, so they came to apologize to me, and this is the gift of apology. ”
"That's a rarity. These two people have a stinky face every day, and when they are at home, unless they are facing their grandfather, they usually don't even bother to pretend, why did they suddenly change sex?"
"Don't worry, I've checked, there should be no problem. If you're feeling uneasy, I can take a bite of each one, and then a few hours later I'll be fine and you're eating. ”
"Hey, that's disgusting. How can I eat in that case? But I think it should be fine, after all, they took it personally, and if they poisoned it, it would be too obvious, no matter how stupid they are, they won't blatantly do such a thing. ”
Saying that, Shangguan Jinyue took the initiative to open the box, "Wow, it is indeed a very delicate dim sum, I have seen a lot of delicious pastries, but this one makes people very appetizing at first glance." But it seems that it is really difficult to buy, you can see that the two of them used the identity of the Shangguan family to buy two boxes. ”
"Well, then you're going to eat it right now, or do you want me to go over the plate and divide it?" asked Liu Xuan.
"Divide it, pick some for grandpa, and then pick some for mother and Yinyue, and we'll just keep a few for ourselves. Shangguan Jinyue said.
"That's just your two brothers, they originally sent them, but your father didn't give them either?"
"He's not going to love these gadgets. By the way, I'm separating a few to the housekeeper. ”
After dividing the pastries, Shangguan Jinyue asked Liu Xuan to send them to his grandfather, and he gave them to the old housekeeper first, and then he would send them directly to his mother.
Since his grandfather was thinking about something, Liu Xuan put down the pastry and turned to leave. Just as he was thinking about whether to go to Shangguan Jinyue, he received a call from Xue Baixuan.
He quickly ran back to his guest room, and then connected directly. All told, they hadn't been in touch for a long time since they left, either by phone call or text. I didn't expect Xue Baixuan to take the initiative to call me now.
"Hey, Xuanxuan, why did you call me all of a sudden?"
"Didn't you look for me first? I'll hang up if you have something to do. Xue Baixuan said indifferently.
"I don't have anything to do. Xuanxuan, what's wrong with you? Do you blame me for not calling you after I left? Why are you so indifferent?"
"I don't think you don't know anything, do you? I don't believe you haven't asked anyone about my affairs in Zhongzhou. However, it doesn't matter, anyway, you are very happy with the president in the imperial capital, and you won't care about these at all. ”
"What are you talking about, we have something to do. And not only that, as I mentioned to you, my enemies are here, and I want to take revenge. ”
"Whatever, the room I saw today shouldn't be a hotel, right? I guess it's the president's bedroom? I've seen all the rooms in a five-star hotel, it shouldn't be like this. You've already entered the house. ”
"Xuanxuan, this is basic etiquette, when you come to the imperial capital, it is impossible to bypass the Shangguan family and live outside. And I can explain whatever you want to know. ”
"I don't need to explain, it's like some things that have happened in Zhongzhou recently, and I won't explain it to you, because I don't think there is any need to explain. The reason why I am looking for you now is because my parents called, they wanted to see you, I said you are very busy and you are not available, they have to call, I said you are on a business trip, and they still insist. ”
Liu Xuan understood now. Xue Baixuan didn't take the initiative to call herself, but when she called home, the family should have just asked about her situation, and thought that the two of them were together, so she asked herself to answer the phone. But he wasn't in Zhongzhou at all, so Xue Baixuan lied.
"Then you called to mean that you want me to call them back to say hello, right?" asked Liu Xuan.
"Well, that's fine, I hope you don't say anything else. Don't promise anything, after all, people are soft-spoken, who knows what variables will be in the future, if they are all serious, it will be bad, after all, everyone will still get along in the future, to avoid too much embarrassment. ”
"Xuanxuan, I think you hate me a little bit now?"
"Hate, I hate you, because I still love you. Although I don't want to do this, I can't choose this kind of love. Even in pain, the affection in my heart can never be changed, what can I do? I'm in a lot of pain, too. Saying that, Xue Baixuan was bitter.
"Xuanxuan, don't be like this, I don't know how to comfort you when you cry. I know it's all my fault, but I don't know how to deal with it, and now it's getting more and more complicated, and I don't know if we'll ever be able to go back to the way things were. ”
