It's night.

This affluent area is always quiet at night.

Although it is not too far from the downtown area, it is like a pure land in the urban area.

There will be no idle people in the society that can be seen everywhere in the ordinary community, and there will be no old men and women with pets to enjoy the shade, and the spacious road will have a large enough green area like a paradise. The neighborhood is peaceful, with only the occasional passing of top cars highlighting the extraordinaryness of this community.

The security personnel of the community are naturally not randomly recruited security guards, but retired armed police special police officers with excellent professional ability. The natural salary is definitely several times higher than that of the average community security guard.

Generally, there are no long-sighted people who come here to make trouble, not to mention the security guards and cameras that monitor each piece of land, and each villa has its own patrol and security personnel. Some of the scary villas with prominent heads of households have hired additional professional bodyguards, which are again above the average armed police special police.

The only blind spot is the danger of falling from the sky, but this situation is almost impossible to consider according to the Chinese national conditions, all in all, it is not easy for even a mouse to build a nest here.

"Xuan Shao." Xia Ruxuan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the faint light of the street lamp and was stunned. There was a soft knock on the door, and it was the voice of the housekeeper Uncle Wu. "Did you sleep?"

"Come in." Xia Ruxuan closed the curtains, and the room seemed a little empty, because the room had not been cleaned up for a long time. Now the time is only in the early nine o'clock, Xia Ruxuan naturally did not sleep. It's just that I'm wearing a wide nightgown and I'm thinking a lot.

Uncle Wu gently pushed open the door with a kind smile, "Xuan Shao, the master asked you to go to the study for a while." ”

Xia Ruxuan raised his eyebrows lightly, in Uncle Wu's opinion, this pair of sword eyebrows and starry eyes were almost carved out of the same mold as Xia Yunbai, and the same heroic spirit was extraordinary, handsome and upright. Even this posture of raising eyebrows is the same as Xia Yunbai, I heard that tonight at the engagement banquet with the Su family showed an indifferent and outstanding spirit, coupled with Uncle Wu's own knowledge of people for many years, Xuan Shao really began to grow into a leader who can take charge of himself.

"Got it." Xia Ruxuan turned around and walked out of the door and turned off the light in the room. He knew in his heart that Xia Yunbai should talk to him sooner or later, and it would not be more than tomorrow at the latest, but he didn't expect him to be very concerned about this matter.

"Sit down." Walking into the study, Xia Yunbai was still wearing the same formal clothes as he was at dinner, his expression seemed very calm, and when Xia Ruxuan sat down, he went straight to the point, "I want to ask you, what do you think about the future road." ”

Xia Ruxuan knew that Xia Yunbai had seen everything very thoroughly, and today's incident seemed to be provoked by the Su family's girl, and Xia Ruxuan's behavior was just following her words.

Everything seems to be like a boat pushing down the river, and there is nothing to think about. But in fact, if you think about it carefully, you will find that the last sentence is completely Xia Ruxuan playing a trick on himself, and it has no practical meaning at all. Xia Ruxuan has never been the kind of person who is easy to be impulsive, and this impassioned statement seems to be beyond reproach, but only Xia Yunbai understands that he is pretending.

Speaking of which, even if the Su family girl has any dissatisfaction, Xia Yunbai believes that it won't take long for Xia Ruxuan to get a little girl. As a result, he still said it for three years, so that the intention was somewhat meaningful. The only point is to postpone the engagement. Moreover, Xia Yunbai's situation became extremely difficult.

"This ......" Xia Ruxuan was suddenly a little embarrassed, to be honest, he didn't have some exact ideas yet, and there were only some vague concepts in his mind, and even if he talked to Xia Yunbai about the construction of Lianhai New District now, it was too early. Even if he says it, it is estimated that with his right to speak in the Xia family now, Xia Yunbai will treat himself as.

"Ruxuan," Xia Yunbai's face softened slightly, perhaps because Xia Ruxuan's sharpness a few weeks ago made him remember it very much, so he would be willing to talk to Xia Ruxuan face-to-face about something seriously, "I hope you don't be too ambitious." ”

"I know." Xia Ruxuan raised his head and looked at Xia Yunbai, who was sitting slightly tall. But this time, it's not a matter of perfunctory past without saying a word.

Xia Yunbai didn't care about Xia Ruxuan's attitude, his fingers tapped lightly on the tabletop, "Do you know that today's impulsiveness has made our situation very bad?" As he spoke, Xia Yunbai laughed, but there was some scorching meaning in his smile, "For three years, if you don't rely on the Xia family, you will definitely be able to make a difference, what you said is indeed rampant and flavorful enough." ”

Saying that, Xia Yunbai's words changed sharply, and his expression was fierce, "Don't you know that Nizi is just a senseless struggle?" Have you ever wondered how much effort you'll have to put into it after you're done? He narrowed his eyes slightly, "It is you who have pushed yourself onto this road with no way out, do you know that some words are not taken out to say, if you have the courage to say it, you must have the courage to complete it." Do you understand?

But, I know you're not an idiot. Even if you have a vision far beyond ordinary teenagers, but you only graduated from high school, how can you get out of the Xia family's reading ability? In your place, do you really know the world? Don't think that the world is as simple as you see it and think of it, it is much bigger and more complex than you think. ”

If it weren't for those eight years, his status almost fell from heaven to hell, and then he saw all the faces of the world before he really understood how real and realistic this world was. When he starts from the bottom and climbs up step by step, he will transform into his current indifferent state of mind. Who would understand the struggle and complicated emotions in Xia Ruxuan's heart.

In fact, only when you lose it will you know the preciousness of possession. Anyone can say this, but to say it, even Xia Yunbai this year has not suffered such ups and downs, right?

"You won't understand." Xia Yunbai was obviously suspicious, but this was also what Xia Ruxuan found difficult to tell him. It's not distrust, but if this kind of thing doesn't really happen to you, how many people can believe and understand?!

In fact, from Xia Yunbai's standpoint, he really had no reason to believe that as a young master who had never left the protection of the family, how much he knew about this world. So Xia Ruxuan didn't mean to argue with him about anything.

"If it was you in the past, I would be very happy to have this kind of performance. But now, I'm really puzzled. You know that the girl is just a tantrum, just let her laugh and pass by. I don't believe you'll see why. ”

The corners of Xia Ruxuan's mouth moved slightly, this is the Xia Yunbai he knows, proud and stubborn. He will insist on digging into the bottom of something.

"I know." Xia Ruxuan pondered his emotions for a moment, he didn't want this conversation to become too intense. He never forgot the ashtray that he had smashed when he talked about this in his previous life. It was now lying quietly in front of it, shining with a dazzling sheen. "I just don't want everything to go according to plan sometimes."

"I know you're doing it for my good, and I can not resist all this. But that doesn't mean I'm really happy to accept it. Xia Ruxuan said truthfully, while looking at Xia Yunbai's expression, although everything today has his calculations, but there is also some true feeling.

Xia Yunbai was silent, and the momentum in his eyes seemed to be weighty.

"I don't care how good-looking Su Jingya looks at her, but I don't like her, her beauty is meaningless in my eyes. As for what she says, I don't care, I just want to achieve my end.

I don't want to be mentioned that no matter what I do in the future, it will be your Xia Yunbai's son forever and ever. And one day others can't see me, point at me and say that he is Xia Ruxuan, or even see you and say that you are my Xia Ruxuan's father, why not?! ”

"Hehe," Xia Yunbai chuckled under Xia Ruxuan's-for-tat, "It's too similar, your thoughts are exactly the same as when I was young." I also thought that one day I could surpass your grandfather's deeds.

But what?

I hit a wall and groped my way forward, but eventually I fell. As a result, it wasn't until your grandfather retreated into the background that I was gradually seen. It's very difficult for young people to be sharp, and they have to climb up one step at a time, and it's not like you're not doing well......"

"I can do it." Xia Ruxuan resolutely interrupted Xia Yunbai's words, and his words were sonorous and powerful.

"Can you? How can you? Xia Yunbai didn't laugh angrily. It's not just that one of your ideas is put into practice, and you get benefits, and you will rise to the sky in one step. If you think you can, then I'll give you a chance, and I'll take a good look here.

Let's see if you Xia Ruxuan, my Xia Yunbai's son can bring me any surprises. I just want to tell you if the world is as simple as you think. Never, ever, will never be as simple as you think. I will give you what you deserve, but other than that, I will not give you any help. That's what you want, right?

You have to understand that you are not a gifted god, everything you can do is nothing compared to the Xia clan that we have worked together, and your struggle is just going around in circles on the road I once had. Pointless.

One day, you will come back to me and bow your head and complain, if you don't believe me, just try. You can now decide for yourself, leave, or compromise. Xia Yunbai's eyes exuded a breathtaking light, at this moment Xia Ruxuan felt that he was like an emperor, and his expression of not being angry and arrogant was as dazzling as the brilliance of a god in Xia Ruxuan's heart.

Eight years ago, he almost compromised in the same questioning, then lived in mediocrity, and finally fell into decline.

Eight years ago he didn't have a choice because he couldn't do anything. But this time, he had to make a completely different choice, and he had no choice either. If you want to transform, you want to impress your father, there will be such a moment.

He stood up decisively, opened the door, and looked back to see Xia Yunbai dissatisfied, but with a slightly affirmative expression, "I have already decided, even if I regret it one day, I have no regrets." ”

――I'm sorry.

Please forgive me for going my own way.

But this time I won't keep you waiting too long. Never.

……

Xia Yunbai was silent for a long time in the study, "No wonder, what you have left in your body is Lao Tzu's blood." How can anyone stop you? ”
