The quiet Moskva River flows slowly, the park on the banks is full of wildflowers, and Diana, dressed in a yellow dress, sits on a swing and is already picturesque without speaking.

Li Muye only looked at her and didn't say anything.

Although he had already refused, Li Muye still admitted in his heart that Chu Qinchuan's bad idea was actually the most suitable method at the moment.

If you marry this girl, you will be considered half Russian. Coupled with Yelena's special relationship with Bergomi, if not fully accepted as her own family, at least it will be easier to be accepted by those people. There will also be a lot fewer open guns and hidden arrows.

The problem now is that Li Muye has prepared a wedding ring, but he will never wear it for other women other than Nana.

People in the rivers and lakes, it is inevitable to act on the spot, but we must keep a bottom limit.

This option has broken through Li Muye's bottom limit. In order to develop his career, he once had a romantic relationship with Wang Hongye, but Li Muye had already made it clear to Wang Hongye before that relationship began. Comparatively speaking, the Russian girl in front of her is much better than Wang Hongye in terms of appearance and temperament, if it is not for the premise of marriage, just playing a Russian-style hooligan, Li Muye actually has no obstacle in his heart at all.

"Li, what is your favorite season?" Diana asked, tilting her head to look at Li Muye.

Li Muye rolled his eyes and said, "If it's in Russia, I like autumn the most, and if it's in my hometown, we all prefer spring." ”

Diana said: "I also like spring, how do you say spring in Chinese?"

Li Muye taught her again. Diana repeated it a few times, sighed, and said, "Lee, why do you like autumn in Russia?"

"Because autumn is the harvest season, for me, a businessman in the agricultural economy, autumn means that it is time to harvest wealth. Li Muye said patiently: "In half a month, the farm over there will start to harvest, and the flour mill and bread factory will be running at the same time. ”

"I just don't like autumn. Diana sighed: "In autumn, winter is not far off, and when it comes, Moscow is like an old man who has lost his youth, it is too boring, and I like Wallam's poem in praise of spring: Through my little double window, in spring, I see you." White roses breathe on the slender flower paths, maidens sketch on the glass windows in winter, and spring blooms on the other side of the sea. What a beautiful poem. ”

Li Muye was vulgar and unliterate, and he didn't know which onion this Russian poet was. The elegant smile of the vassal can be regarded as a response to the poetry of the little girl.

"Mr. Lyusinsky came to the store yesterday to look for my mother, and he mentioned your name. Diana said suddenly.

"What did he say about me?" asked Li Muye, pushing the swing.

Diana said in broken Chinese, "Nothing. And then in Russian, he said: "They have been talking a lot about you lately, isn't Ergin Mining going to buy a batch of mining machinery suitable for use in the extremely cold zone? Lyusinsky hopes to get this order on behalf of St. Petersburg Business Machinery." ”

"Then give it to him. Li Muye said lightly. Then he said, "You've been getting to care about business lately. ”

Diana said, "I can't live in a fairy tale forever." He added, "I recently suddenly found that I like China very much, so I signed up for a Chinese language class, what do you think of what I said?"

"There is progress. Li Muye said with a smile: "But if you want to really understand the Chinese, it is best to go to China to live for a stage." ”

Diana shook her head and said, "I don't want to know other Chinese, I just want to be able to communicate with you without barriers." ”

It's been a month since the last time, and this chick has matured a lot. Although Li Muye did not accept Chu Qinchuan's suggestion, he did not completely deny his ideas. Even if you don't get married, you can get closer to Diana at this stage. After all, that's what the likes of Yelena and Timov want to see. Their purpose is to control Li Muye, and the beauty plan is also one of the options.

After the Nicholas incident, Li Muye warned the other party with his toughness and shrewdness. and Timov and others have temporarily formed some kind of tacit understanding. But in order to stabilize the current relationship, I decided to have a relationship with Diana in a virtual and unjust way.

Diana was unable to disobey her mother's fate, and secondly, she was indeed disgusted and even grateful to Li Muye, so she was quite involved in this matter. She's a dead-eyed girl, and it's hard to turn back when she recognizes something. I thought that Nicholas was good anywhere, but later found out that people didn't treat her as a dish at all, and after using it, she gave it up, and she was sad and finally let go of that feeling. Now, at the instigation of Timov and others, Li Muye has been re-targeted as the target, and he has devoted himself wholeheartedly from the beginning.

The secret of the easter egg has finally been solved, and it turns out that there is a USB flash drive hidden there, and the content of it is very powerful, which is actually an agreement between the Agricultural and Industrial Bank and a well-known North American mining company. It was signed two years ago, at a time when the oligarchs were falling. In order to leave a way out for himself, Gurnov contacted this North American mining company with a special background.

Gurnov died, and the agreement, which had not yet been drafted and had no legal effect, lost its basis for enforcement. But if it is taken by someone with ulterior motives and used to plant a North American spy hat for Li Muye, under the principle of the espionage industry preferring to kill mistakes rather than let go, there is still some deterrence.

Fortunately, Li Muye was alert enough and found it in time so that this thing did not fall into Lyusinsky's hands.

The person behind Nicholas was none other than Lyusinsky, and Li Muye only later learned that Nicholas was now working under Lyusinsky. If he had been killed that night, he would have become a marionette in the hands of Lyusinsky, a new oligarch with an extremely complex background.

Perhaps for the purpose of restricting Li Muye's career development, Timov has not been able to promote the formation of a new company. Of course, Li Muye hopes to establish a more stable business and trade relationship with them to strengthen his position here.

But as Lao Chu said, the status is not given by others, but earned by oneself. Lao Maozi worships strength, is brave and fearless, greedy and full of wisdom. Dare to draw a sword at any time for the sake of profit, but at the same time keep in awe of an opponent who is strong enough and fierce enough. Therefore, in this land, if a foreigner wants to develop his career, it is not enough to have a little wolf nature, but also a little tiger spirit.

Li Muye is as cunning as a fox, decisive and ruthless than a jackal, what he lacks is a bit of reckless tiger spirit.

"Are you missing your hometown?" the little beauty's gaze was staring at her infatuatedly, and she said, "A man like you must be very popular with women in his hometown, right?"

"Not really. Li Muye said casually: "When I was young, my family background was very ordinary, and I can't be regarded as a popular kind of person on our side." ”

Diana said in a coquettish tone, "Then what are you thinking? Can't you see that the person in front of you has changed into a beautiful new dress?"

Li Muye smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I do have some troubles. ”

Diana felt self-pitying: "Maybe it's because I'm not good enough." ”

Li Muye was relieved: "You are already very good, but I have been under a bit of pressure recently." ”

"How do you really come into your life? Diana stopped the swing, walked in front of Li Muye, slowly pasted it, snuggled in the man's arms, and said quietly: "Is it because of my mother and Lyusinsky that you are so lukewarm to me?"

Li Muye grabbed her waist and said gently: "Don't be careful, I'll accompany you well." ”

Diana said: "I'm not a fool, don't you have it in your heart, can't I see it?" In fact, I knew from the beginning that my mother and Lyusinsky wanted to use me to control you, and I couldn't refuse them, and I was a little curious about you, so I agreed, of course, such a beginning is not a good beginning of perfect love." ”

She confessed. Is this a trick to get away with and indulge in? Li Muye secretly thought in his heart. So far, this little girl has been harmless to humans and animals, and she can hardly see anything else except for her simple cuteness. Maybe Lao Tzu is too careful?

Diana continued, "I know you're with me to deal with them, and I thought it wouldn't be bad for you or them at first. ”

"Isn't it now?"

"Of course not. Diana said: "Nicholas said that Russian women need only fur and bread, what a fool's logic, that is because he has only come into contact with the most despised Russian women." ”

"You know the story of Anna Karenina. ”

Li Muye shook his head calmly.

"Russians know this story, just as everyone should know Leo Tolstoy and Pushkin. ”

Li Muye said: "I don't read much, please forgive me for being lonely and unheard." ”

"A tragedy about love, I admire Anna's courage, but I don't sympathize with her ending in the tracks. Diana said: "Although she has the courage to pursue love, but she cares too much, seems to be brave, but in fact has been living a very contradictory life, in my opinion, the woman who chases love should be noble and simple, she should be desperate, leave no room, never look ahead, fall in love with someone, you should fully integrate yourself into his life, happy, and enjoy your love freely." ”

Li Muye said: "I haven't heard this story, but I can't agree with your thoughts, life is short, shouldn't you be extra cautious and cherished? If the person you fall in love with doesn't love you, even if you are reluctant to be together, will you really feel happy?"

"All the changes in life, all the charms, are made up of light and darkness. She continued dreamily: "If I fall in love with someone, I will definitely love desperately, be with him, think about what he thinks, be anxious about what he is difficult, if one day I don't love, I will simply end it neatly, wait or look for the next relationship." ”

The point is not whether you love me or not, or how much you love me, but whether I love you now.

Li Muye looked at her, delicate cheeks, ethereal eyes, but his expression was a bit bleak and self-deprecating, looking like the floating world is empty, indifferent and lonely, just like the indifferent and tired face in the city, the lonely and ambiguous whisperer tells the dusty love-hate entanglement in the cold twilight. It's so beautiful that it hurts to the heart.

"Chalmov is a big bastard, Lyusinsky is a heinous devil, Bergomi is ruthless, and Mr. Timov is the only one of my mother's lovers who regards her as an equal woman. Diana suddenly changed her words: "Yelena's love life is a mess, when I was a child, I even thought she was like a maid, for the sake of profit, I didn't care about sleeping with any man, until I grew up, I gradually understood that she cherished herself and me so much." ”

Li Muye looked at her puzzled, not understanding her true intention when she said this.

"Don't look at me so confused. Diana said: "I know that the way I am now is a little ridiculous, even lowly, but, bastard, I must tell you one thing, I am not a maid, and neither is Elena! We are all women who follow our own feelings to pursue a good life, she hates Chalmov, she is obsessed with Lyusinsky, she despises Bergomi, she adores and respects Timov, but she lives fearlessly, and she doesn't care what others think of her. ”

"I seem to understand what you mean. Li Muye increased her strength to make her body stick closer to herself.

This kind of contact made Diana a little nervous and excited, her face was crimson, her eyes were like spring water reflecting peach blossoms, she looked at Li Muye, and said, "You just understand a little bit." She whispered softly in Li Muye's ear: "God will send a messenger to every girl at a special time to help them end their girlhood, Elena said to me last night, Nicholas is not a real man at all, you are my messenger." ”

Li Muye said: "You might as well be more direct and tell me, what do you want from me?"

"There will be a special auction tonight at the Met. Diana said, "I think you can take one of these lots for me......"

••••••

In Li Muye's view, the relationship between Diana and himself, a sentence of love is not enough to summarize. At least in its own case, it should also include ambition, desire, and even trade. Maybe there will be a little bit of pity and appreciation.

But from Diana's point of view, or rather in the way her outward language manifests, her love is unscrupulous, and she doesn't care about the feelings of others. As Nietzsche said, if you want to be a thinker, you can't be a moralist. And those who have made up their minds to love supremacy, the same is true. The consistency of thought and love lies in the fact that they usually require only one: absolute simplicity – simplicity without limits.

Sometimes this kind of innocence is like a tiger in hunt, silent when quiet, but fierce and unstoppable when moving. Just like the country of Russia, a place that has always been inpatient and immovable, and if it moves, it is bound to wither and decay.

At the beginning of the lanterns, Li Muye sat in the car and saw Diana dressed up coming out of the store, standing in the autumn wind, pitiful and beautiful.

I can't tell what the reason is, but I always feel that she is a little unreal. Maybe I think Yelena's daughter shouldn't be so weak. Or maybe it's out of the instinctive precaution of a prodigal son.

Hotel Metropole, 16th floor ballroom, the auction has just begun.

The jadeite is as gorgeous as jade, and Diana, who is more dazzling than diamonds, sits beside Li Muye obediently,

The host is announcing new lots, exactly what interests Diana. It was a knife that was used by a Russian serial killer nicknamed the Amur Shadow in the early nineteenth century to help Nicholas II get rid of several of his political enemies.

Li Muye couldn't understand how this little girl could be interested in this thing. Diana didn't give any explanation, just stubbornly asked Li Muye to take a picture of her. Li Muye has been in the society for ten years, and his biggest advantage is not how good he is at making money, but how dare to spend money. Especially spending money on those who need it.

In the current situation, Li Muye needs Diana's cooperation.

I thought it would be just a short knife inlaid with gems and gold handles, and it would not be too difficult to photograph, but I didn't expect the asking price to be called an astonishing figure of 300,000 US dollars at the beginning. The other party was a blonde and blue-eyed young man, Li Muye didn't know him, but he knew Chalmov who came with him.

Soon, the price has exceeded the normal and reasonable range, and the price has evolved into a battle of will between men. When the price was called for $600,000 by the other party, Li Muye just wanted to raise the card again, but suddenly Diana's outstretched hand pressed the arm holding the card.

Li Muye looked at her in confusion.

"The price is outrageous enough. She said softly: "For me, the lot is not so important, the most important thing is to see that you are willing to pay such a large price for me." ”

"As long as you like it, it's worth the price. Li Muye said seriously: "I can't give you the best, so I have to try my best to give you the most expensive." ”

Diana smiled, "I want more than just this knife. ”

••••••

"Dear Lee, it looks like you won't be able to be a winner tonight. Chalmov walked over with his fat body dangling.

"Mr. Chalmov. Li Muye and Diana both nodded in greeting, did not get up, and did not intend to communicate with him too much.

But Charmov was clearly proud, and he put his hand on the diamond ring on his chest, flicked his fingers, and said: "Look, how close I am to you, and even to appreciate things so consistently, that you can always find a common preference, only this time you won't have another chance to win me." ”

Li Muye looked at him calmly and said, "Congratulations, that's really a good knife, I regret not being able to get it." ”

Chalmov laughed proudly and said arrogantly: "Young man, this is Moscow, this stage belongs to the Russians, Timov needs you, but I just want to kick your ass." ”

"You've drunk too much, I don't care about you. "Beneath Li Muye's glacial calm surface, there is a volcano that is depressed.

Chalmov laughed and said, "Votga is a man's best friend, and women are just slaves and dolls, and if you don't understand this, you will never understand Russia, and you only deserve to go back to your historic cave on the top of the mountain to eat bananas and live." ”

"That's not what a cultured gentleman should say. Diana said, "Mr. Chalmov, I want you to apologize to Mr. Li and me for what you said and did just now!"

"you. Charmov spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm on Diana's shoulder, patted the blonde young man next to him on the buttocks, and walked away triumphantly.

Li Muye looked at the back of him leaving, thinking about what the consequences would be if he caught up and beat him at this moment. At the same time, there was some hesitation, because I was not sure if meeting him here tonight was by accident or if it was inevitable with ulterior motives. If you do, will you fall into a new trap?

"I beg your pardon, I need to go to the bathroom and take care of it. Diana pointed to her shoulder and said, "I'm afraid I need to go back to the car to pick up some clothes, please wait for me a little longer." He got up and walked half way out and came back again, saying, "I have opened a room downstairs in your name, and if the auction will not interest you, you can go there and wait for me, and I will be back soon." ”

What is this little girl going to do? From her ambiguous and enthusiastic eyes, the answer seemed to be imminent. Li Muye didn't want to refuse anymore, he needed to vent his pent-up anger. A Russian woman, is a good choice.

••••••

The light in the room was soft, the TV was on, Li Muye had just taken a shower, and was sitting on the sofa smoking and watching a movie.

Diana changed into a purple hunting outfit, walked directly into the room, didn't say anything, simply took off all her clothes neatly, and went straight to the bathroom.

Li Muye looked at her flawless body carved like white jade, and even his mind was a little trance.

What happened next came naturally.

"Why do you smell of blood?" Li Muye sniffed lightly on her celadon-like delicate shoulder.

"I've never slept with a man before. Diana answered a little wrongly, to Li Muye's surprise, she looked calm and fearless at the moment, like a little tigress hunting for the first time, very different from the delicate and jerky girl before.

"I'm sorry, please forgive me for being rude. Li Muye noticed the red on the sheets, and said apologetically: "I was angry with that bastard of Chalmov." ”

Diana shook her head lightly and said, "It's not worth being angry with him, and I don't blame you for this, Elena taught me, men are like this." ”

"Why do I suddenly feel that you are a little different tonight than before?"

"Diana was a girl before, and I'll be a woman after tonight. ”

That shouldn't be the whole answer. ”

"How about marrying me?" Diana took the initiative to post it, as gentle as before: "My body and mind belong to you." ”

"If I say no, what kind of consequences do I need to bear?" Li Muye weighed the weight of her words in his heart.

"There are no consequences, but I will be very sad. Diana said, "They won't be comfortable cooperating with you." ”

"I have a very important marriage partner in my heart, and if it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be here at all, and I wouldn't be where I am today. Li Muye said: "No matter at any time, I will not give up on her." ”

Diana thought for a while and said, "Actually, marriage can still be divorced, the important thing is not the marriage relationship itself, but I want to get what I want from you." ”

"What do you want?"

"I want you, and your wealth and channels. Diana aimed at the part of Li Muye's body that was not dominated by emotions and sat up. "You need me, you don't feel it yet, but tomorrow's newspaper will make you understand......"

"Tomorrow's newspaper?" Li Muye felt the exhilarating pressure, couldn't help but hiss, and asked, "Are you going to surprise me?"
