Chapter VII: Secret Relationships

From the picturesque rivers and mountains of the capital to the picturesque rivers and mountains of the west city, in addition to the lights or the lights, the pain under the light, but how can not be perceived, this is the rivers and lakes, brilliant and declining.

In the room deep in the Zhou family, the atmosphere was a little depressing, and there was no feeling of the joy of the New Year, only the two of them sat opposite each other.

"Dad, who are we waiting for?" Zhou Kangcheng's voice sounded a little restless and said, just after the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to send a kind of relative, he was pulled by Zhou Hemlock to this hidden small tea room, Zhou Hemlock just vaguely said Wait for someone, after waiting for an hour, Zhou Kangcheng finally ran out of patience.

Zhou Tieshan, who had his eyes slightly closed, glanced at Zhou Kangcheng, and said with some disappointment: "I can't even bear this little bit of temperament, I don't think you should be a consul, sooner or later the Zhou family will be folded in your hands." ”

Zhou Kangcheng's face turned a little pale, he didn't expect Zhou Tieshan to be so serious, and said with a wry smile: "Old man, I broke my leg in the past three months, and you don't look at it." ”

Zhou Tieshan snorted coldly, obviously very dissatisfied with Zhou Kangcheng's performance for a while.

And Zhou Kangcheng was helpless, restrained the restlessness in his heart, and then patiently waited for the big name that made them drink herbal tea.

The phone rang, Zhou Kangcheng glanced at the mobile phone on the table, and then directly chose to hang up, of course, Zhou Tieshan saw this move in his eyes, just sighed, and didn't interject to say anything, obviously there are more important things now.

There was a sound of footsteps outside the corridor, Zhou Tieshan opened his eyes slightly, and as the door of the tea room opened, a woman in white appeared in front of the door, this woman who looked extremely bumpy and warped was wearing a peaked cap and a mask, so that Zhou Kangcheng couldn't see her face clearly, but through this woman's good temperament, Zhou Kangcheng felt that the covered face was definitely not much worse than if it was not so overwhelming.

Because of the appearance of this mysterious woman, Zhou Kangcheng was interested, and his eyes were unscrupulously placed on this woman, and this woman was not uncomfortable because of Zhou Kangcheng's exposed eyes, but gave people an extremely unfazed feeling.

"Miss Bai, please be seated. A smile appeared on Zhou Tieshan's old-fashioned face.

The woman sat between Zhou Tieshan and Zhou Kangcheng like this, took off the cap, and took off the mask, which was a face with light makeup, but it gave people infinite temptation, a stunning and aggressive beauty.

Zhou Kangcheng, who originally had a strong desire in his eyes, was stunned for a moment after seeing this beautiful face, of course he knew that the origin of this woman was the current pillar of the Bai family.

Bai Yiman.

If it were in the past, Zhou Kangcheng would definitely be immersed in the charm of this woman, but now it is different, how to say that he has also become a big role in the mansion and has his own position, so Bai Yiman's secret appearance here is worth speculating.

Just when Zhou Kangcheng was in a trance, Bai Yiman opened his mouth and said: "Master Zhou, don't come to harm, if you don't have your support, I really can't completely control the Bai family." ”

Zhou Kangcheng was completely stupid when he heard this, and looked at his father Zhou Tieshan in disbelief, he couldn't imagine that Zhou Tieshan would do so much quietly under his nose, which was completely unimaginable to Zhou Kangcheng.

The reverence for his father in his heart slowly grew, and Zhou Kangcheng felt very bitter that he saw everything too simply.

"Where, Miss Bai still has this ability. Zhou Tieshan said very humbly, everything is so breezy.

Bai Yiman still had that faint smile on her face, she looked at Zhou Kangcheng, stretched out her white hand and said, "In the future, please give me a lot of advice, Zhou Gongzi." ”

Zhou Kangcheng looked at Bai Yiman's slightly squinted eyes, giving people the feeling of a white fox, as if he could hook people's souls with a snap of his fingers, he held this soft and boneless hand, nodded and said, "Miss Bai, it should be me who takes care of you a lot." ”

Zhou Tieshan just watched the correspondence between the two young people quietly on the side, this is a line hidden in the deepest part of him, the reason why he didn't tell Zhou Kangcheng before was because he was afraid that the young and vigorous Zhou Kangcheng would come out of his mouth, but the Dijiu Mansion had been established for three months, so Zhou Tieshan thought that it was time to tell Zhou Kangcheng everything.

The two hands held each other for a long time before letting go, Bai Yiman did not continue to tease Zhou Kangcheng, there was a little bit of meaning, and appropriately maintained this distance that people could see but could not touch, she said to Zhou Tieshan: "Old man Zhou, you asked me to check everything in secret, but it seems that Li Banruo's rapid climb is not as simple as we imagined, these days, he has not seen any suspicious people, and he has nothing to do with the Liu family." ”

Zhou Tieshan touched the stubble on his chin, frowned and listened, he slowly clenched the walnut pit in his hand and said, "What kind of ambition does this wolf cub left by Wei Jiu have?"

"But now, as long as Li Banruo doesn't get too close to the Liu family, we have the absolute initiative in our hands. Bai Yiman said very rationally, behind the seemingly peaceful West City, there is a torrent of undercurrents that people can never look forward to.

Zhou Kangcheng listened to the shock on the sidelines, he didn't expect that this seemingly harmonious Emperor Nine Mansion still hides a gloomy city behind it, although this is a 100% happening, because this amount of money is involved, how can it not be dirty, but Zhou Kangcheng did not imagine that the Emperor Nine Mansion has only been established for three months, and there are already so many interests behind it.

Zhou Tieshan nodded silently, then got up with his back and said, "You have to worry more about the mansion, I hope the two of us can cooperate for a longer time." As he spoke, Zhou Tieshan stretched out his hand that looked as old as a locust tree.

The two hands shook together again, just these few words, this personal visit, everything has been extremely clear, this is a statement.

Bai Yiman didn't stay long, politely refused Zhou Tieshan's kindness to see him off, put on a peaked hat and left in a hurry, while Zhou Kangcheng looked at Bai Yiman's slender back in a daze, and felt a little more emotion in his heart.

It wasn't until Bai Yiman left that Zhou Kangcheng came back to his senses and asked, "Old man, this is..."

"Can't you see this?" Zhou Tieshan said as he looked at Zhou Kangcheng, who was a little unenlightened.

Zhou Kangcheng's eyes widened, and he couldn't help asking, "When did our family have such a relationship with the Bai family?" ”

"If even you can see it, that's the real failure, I hope you understand this, this Emperor Nine Mansion is not a playhouse, and that woman is not a vegetarian, so some things should be said and not, you should be very clear in your heart. Zhou Tieshan looked at Zhou Kangcheng with a stern face and said.

"Old man, if I don't even have such a little heart, I don't have to come out and mix. Zhou Kangcheng said with an unhappy face, he didn't like Zhou Tieshan and still regarded him as a rookie.

Zhou Tieshan sat down peacefully again, through this position, he could still hear the fireworks outside, but he no longer had the mood to appreciate, and there were only a few people left who accompanied him to appreciate it back then.

What are people living for like this? He remembered the words that Wei Jiu was most willing to mumble when he met Wei Jiu many years ago.

Live to the end, for the sake of the children.

He looked at Zhou Kangcheng again, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart, he felt that if he could still see Wei Jiu now, there would definitely be a lot of things to talk about, but unfortunately, this god seemed to never give this old man full of regrets a chance again.

"Kang Cheng, now you are still young and vigorous, you feel that you hold the world, the rivers and lakes, and you will understand in two years, in fact, a person, no matter what kind of height he is mixed with, and even determines the life and death of many people, he is just a wisp of duckweed in the rivers and lakes, he can't live by himself, he can't die by himself, Xicheng has undergone such changes in the past two years, it is not a bad thing, at least it can give you a chance to practice, because no matter what, in the end, the Zhou family will still be entrusted to your hands. Zhou Tieshan said with great emotion.

Zhou Kangcheng's expression slowly became solemn, put away his cynical demeanor, he nodded and said, "Old man, I will be more cautious in the future." ”

"I don't ask you to be amazing, and I don't expect you to be as good as Ma Wen, I just hope that when I entrust the Zhou family to your hands, I can close my eyes peacefully, otherwise I won't have the face to face the ancestors of the Zhou family. Zhou Tieshan said without hesitation, maybe he simply thought that now he can no longer tell Zhou Kangcheng how beautiful it is, and now what Zhou Kangcheng should learn more is the cruelty of this world.

But a person who has experienced a good life suddenly let him see the darkness of this world, this gap is really a bit huge, but now this is what Zhou Tieshan must do, although Zhou Kangcheng is the only flesh in his bones.

"Dad, I won't let you down, Zhou family, I will hold you up. Zhou Kangcheng said with a restless face, perhaps because Zhou Tieshan's description stimulated the heat in his blood.

Zhou Tieshan nodded slightly, on such a special day, giving Zhou Kangcheng such a special ambition, Zhou Tieshan thinks this is not a bad thing, but is this really a good thing?

"Can you handle the weight?"

Zhou Kangcheng nodded vigorously.

Zhou Tieshan smiled slightly, but his smile was only too much loneliness, and he muttered: "I hope that after many years, you won't blame me......"
