46. Everyone cooks together
After going home and taking a shower, changing into a set of mature clothes, Chen Leilei took a taxi to the restaurant where Ye Jun asked him.
This restaurant is located in the suburbs, the decoration is not low-key, but the operation is very low-key, only three floors, the main color is dark blue with the finishing red, the name of the restaurant is called "dragon", the word "dragon".
People who don't know will think that the name of this restaurant is taken from the meaning of Huaxia Dragon, but Chen Leilei knows that Ye Jun opened this "Dragon" restaurant to commemorate the most shocking time in his life - the time when he studied abroad again.
When Chen Leilei chatted with Ruan Guoqing before his rebirth, he asked him: Ye Jun has such a deep background, why did he get involved in the underworld? Ruan Guoqing said that this was related to Ye Jun's study abroad, and said that he was still a teenage student overseas, because he had contact with Hongmen people, and he followed Hongmen and American ruffians to fight every day, and that bloody experience left him an indelible shadow, and then he was determined to gallop in this gray society.
Chen Leilei knew that Ye Jun rarely came to this "Dragon" restaurant to invite people, and he expected that today's matter would definitely be not small.
Entering the door of the restaurant, Chen Leilei saw Park Buqi wearing a black suit, Pu Buqi was sitting on the sofa at the entrance of the building, facing the door coldly, and his eyes behind the sunglasses did not know whether they were open or closed.
Chen Leilei was taken by the lady in the emerald green cheongsam to a private room on the second floor called "Alliance Certificate". Chen Leilei smiled and walked into this simple but retro private room. Ye Jun was sitting on the side of the table. He was dressed in modern clothes, but the smile on his face looked like it was decades ago.
Ye Jun's smile didn't change at all, but Chen Leilei felt that the depth of the smile exceeded kindness, seeing Ye Jun like this, Chen Leilei had a faint fear.
There were already some coarse tea and light rice on the table, Ye Jun waved his hand to Chen Leilei and said, "Here, Xiao Lei." ”
Chen Leilei nodded, followed the direction of Ye Jun's hand, sat down next to Ye Jun, and said with a light smile after sitting down: "Uncle Ye, let Uncle Ye wait for a long time." ”
Ye Jun smiled faintly, raised his chopsticks and said, "You still have an empty stomach, right? Eat first, the environment here is very vegetarian, but the food is not vegetarian." As he spoke, he picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in Chen Leilei's rice bowl.
Chen Leilei saw Uncle Ye picking up vegetables for himself, and blurted out that he wanted to say, "I'll clip it myself, you eat yours", but he suddenly stopped and didn't dare to speak, so he picked up the chopsticks and ate them in a daze.
Ye Jun didn't speak anymore, moved his chopsticks to eat, and intermittently sandwiched two pieces of meat for Chen Leilei.
Chen Leilei seemed to understand something, and also sandwiched two pieces of meat for Ye Jun, and the meal continued silently.
Sometimes words are terrifying, but sometimes silence is even more chilling.
When eating this meal, Chen Leilei kept breaking out in a cold sweat in his heart, I don't know if it was subconsciously controlled, or coincidentally, Chen Leilei and Ye Jun finished eating the rice in the bowl at the same time.
Ye Jun asked Chen Leilei kindly: "The food is delicious, right?"
Chen Leilei replied "decently": "I don't care if the food is delicious, I only care who I eat with, Uncle Ye, I am very comfortable eating with you." ”
A trademark smile appeared on Ye Jun's face again, a smile that no one could really understand.
Chen Leilei also smiled and asked Ye Jun, "Such a good restaurant, why did you bring me here today?" He was asking, and the pendulum clock in the room rang eight times.
With the last slow bell ringing, Ye Jun said meaningfully: "If you want to know the time, you need to have a clock, but if you want to know something else, you need to have time." ”
Chen Leilei looked at the swinging pendulum and asked softly: "The bell is ringing, you know the time, do you also know those things?"
"Perhaps, if you know, you only know it a little before the bell strikes. A strange light flashed in Ye Jun's eyes, and he changed his words and said, "Are you still hungry? A bowl of rice shouldn't be enough for young people, right?"
"What about you?" Chen Leilei looked at Ye Jun carefully.
"Hehe, I'm old and don't have that much appetite. Ye Jun smiled heartily.
Chen Leilei breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "You are in the middle of the year, how can you have no appetite? Although there is not much rice in the pot, it is enough for the two of us to eat now." And I can cook, and if there is not enough food in the future, I have the ability to make new ones. As long as I have the strength, we'll both be full. ”
Ye Jun looked at Chen Leilei with a smile, looked at him silently for a long time, and said, "It's too hard to do it alone, and if two people cook it together, will there be more meals?"
"You can cook too?"
"How could it not?" Ye Jun smiled faintly.
Hearing Ye Jun say this, Chen Leilei felt a lot more comfortable, and he also smiled sincerely.
This world needs "authority", Chen Leilei knows that Ye Jun can give him "authority", he just wanted to join hands with Ye Jun to become bigger together, and now Ye Jun took the initiative to make this request, Chen Leilei couldn't ask for it, and said affirmatively: "As long as there is a reasonable division of labor, two people must cook more than one person." ”
"I hope you're not as simple as the information says, and I hope I'm not mistaken. Ye Jun patted Chen Leilei's shoulder, with a look of pity on his face.
"Time will tell. Chen Leilei's eyes erased a firm confidence.
Ye Jun nodded with satisfaction and said, "Xiao Lei, eat with you, the delicious meal will become more delicious." Another bowl of it, shall we?"
"Eat together, eat together, to be honest, I really haven't eaten enough. Chen Leilei rubbed his stomach and smiled.
Ye Jun asked the waiter to bring two more bowls of rice.
Ye Jun took a few bites and put down his chopsticks, and when he saw that Chen Leilei also put down his chopsticks, he hurriedly said, "It's okay, you eat yours, I'll talk to you about the account." ”
"Oh. Chen Leilei responded and ate again.
Ye Jun lit a cigarette and told him about the Southeast Asian gambling house while smoking.
Sure enough, the two bookmakers who didn't transfer the account ran away, which were all expected by Chen Leilei, but to his surprise, Ye Jun seemed to be sure to recover the account!
This seems to confirm one of his guesses: before his rebirth, Chen Leilei knew that the social gangs in the mainland were like a plate of scattered sand under the strong deterrence of the guardians, and they were not systematic, and the community forces were very scattered and chaotic, Ye Jun had some influence in the Lingnan underworld, but he did not have much influence in the entire mainland.
However, what is strange is that Ye Jun is very influential overseas, and he maintains close ties with many overseas Chinese communities, and his influence is far greater than that in China.
Chen Leilei has never understood why this is happening, so he has always speculated that there is a secret red organization in the overseas Chinese circle, and he feels that Ye Jun is an important member there.
Now looking at Ye Jun's gentle but hidden expression of deep confidence, Chen Leilei was even more convinced of his guess.
