The "Crystal Palace" hall of Beicun Yuwan Villa can be said to be the most luxurious VIP hall in the entire villa. In normal times, the "Crystal Palace" hall would not be opened at all, and the number of powerful and wealthy people in Xijiang Province who could be qualified to enter this hall would not exceed 100 people combined. It can be said that the minimum threshold for entering the "Crystal Palace" requires billionaire-level figures.

With the automatic induction door slowly opened, like a dreamlike underwater world, colorful light, through all directions flowing in the wall sleep and erratic, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, various colors of swimming fish, swimming quietly, stepping into the door of the hall Wang Ke, at a glance, saw at least dozens of beautiful swimming fish of different forms.

He had heard the name of "Crystal Palace" before, and he had come to Beicun Yuwan Villa many times, but he had never stepped into this "Crystal Palace" hall, because from the mouths of Bai Ruochen and Ji Yunhu, he knew that if he wanted to enter it, the minimum consumption per night would need to exceed one million.

Several of them have money, and a million is nothing to them, but they can't do it if they spend more than a million in one night, because it's no longer enough to describe it as "burning buns", it's simply a loser. They have money, but they don't play with it.

This time, Du Long hosted a banquet for him in the "Crystal Palace", which was really a bit unexpected for him.

"Brother Du, you're too polite, aren't you? I've heard that this Crystal Palace is the best room you have here. We're in here, won't it be too wasteful. Wang Ke turned his head to look at Du Long and said with a smile. He didn't mean to save face, but to speak from the bottom of his heart, because he now cherishes every penny, and with a penny more, he can buy a little more medicinal herbs.

Du Long smiled bitterly: "No waste, no waste at all, this is my little care." ”

Wang Ke felt that Du Long was very guilty because he borrowed his name Fox Fake Huwei, but he just said that he didn't want him to thank him, so he replied with "a little caution".

In the center of the Crystal Palace, there is a huge LCD TV, a whole set of "karaoke" equipment, all of which are the latest products, at this time, the picture on the LCD TV, is a fairy in white clothes, stepping on the clouds and swimming above the nine heavens, and below her is a piece of majestic palace pavilions.

Beautiful classical songs, beautiful notes, flowing on the long strings of the guzheng.

In the center of the two brand-new imported leather sofas, on the rectangular dining table, there are more than a dozen plates of dishes full of color and aroma, it can be seen that four of the hot dishes have just been delivered, and the two stews are covered with lids, and a trace of smoke rises from the edge of the lid.

Wang Ke could see that these two sofas and long tables should have been arranged by Du Long, after all, there were only the two of them, and if it was a large round table, it was not suitable.

Putting aside the two large suitcases they were carrying, just after the two of them sat down, eight young and beautiful waitresses, with light steps and quiet smiles, came to the two of them. These eight beautiful waitresses seem to have gone through countless drills, each of them is not idle, some pick up the wine bottle, skillfully open the bottle cap, some skillfully place the wine glass, and some take out the napkin, to pave the two Wang Ke on their chests, and more mobilize the position of the dishes on the table, as the cigarettes are placed in front of the two, the crystal ashtray is also gently placed.

Wang Ke secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, waved his hand, stopped the waitress who exuded fragrance, spread a napkin on herself, and said in a deep voice: "You put down the things in your hands and go out!" There's no need for you to wait here. ”

The movements in the hands of the eight young and beautiful waitresses suddenly froze, their eyes showed a puzzled look, they looked at the handsome Wang Ke, and then looked at Du Long.

Du Long was also slightly stunned, because one of the things that the "Crystal Palace" is famous for is the meticulous service of these waiters.

After hesitating for a moment, he waved his hand and said with a smile: "Forget it, you all go out!" ”

The eight young and beautiful waitresses looked at Wang Ke's eyes, revealing a hint of discoloration, and then bowed to Wang Ke and the two of them, took a few steps back together, and then left the "Crystal Palace" as fast as possible.

It wasn't until their figures disappeared outside the door that Wang Ke showed a wry smile, reached out and grabbed the cigarette in front of him, took out two after opening it, handed one to Du Long, and stood up and hunched over to light it for him, then he lit the cigarette in his mouth and took a deep puff, as the smoke blew away, Wang Ke said with a wry smile: "Brother Du, although you are a few years older than me, my brother also has to say a word, these things you did today are really a bit excessive, don't you think, you do this, Is it to show the raw side? ”

Du Long's face suddenly became sluggish, looking at Wang Ke's sincere eyes, he didn't know why, but a feeling of emotion rose in his heart. He used Wang Ke's name to fake the tiger, and he still wanted to hide it, but after the matter was exposed, he not only did not have a trace of anger, but he was still so close to himself.

He didn't speak, but frowned and smoked a cigarette silently, when half of the cigarette burned out, Du Long blew away the final smoke, breathed a deep sigh of relief, reached out and picked up the wine glass, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Wang Ke, I'm not as good as you." Today I did something wrong, and I'm not talking about borrowing your fame and scaring those two guys away, it's my performance. This man! It's really hard to keep your heart, because of your fame, because of the bloody storm you caused by the underground power in Changji City last year, the shock brought to me is really too great. ”

Speaking of this, there was a hint of self-deprecation on his face: "People have grown up, and they have experienced many ups and downs along the way, and the world in front of them is different from when they were children!" When I was a child, I was able to strip off my arms, hook up with my brother, laugh and scold, but when I grew up, I was bound by the eyes of the world. To tell you the truth, don't look at my brother, my business is doing well, for so many years, friends are all over the world, but there are no friends who can put their hearts in their hearts and say a few words of truth. ”

"Whenever someone comes near me, I will have a strong resistance in my heart, and the first thing I think about is, why are they approaching me, what are their intentions? And the people who can let me take the initiative to get close to each other are all interested in other people's power, wealth, and status. I'm tired, but I don't have anyone to talk to! ”

"Childhood brothers, friends, now have grown up, started a family, everyone has their own family, their own circle, their own thoughts, so the most sincere feelings of the year, but with the development of time, slowly put on colored glasses. I want to find a true friend to be happy with when I am successful, and I want to talk to a sincere brother when I am lost, but I flip through the mobile phone number stored in my mobile phone, but I don't know who to call. ”

His words stopped, his eyes did not look at Wang Ke, his eyes flashed with a look of memory, and a simple smile also appeared on his well-defined face, as if he was thinking about the purest and most sincere friendship in the past, recalling the beautiful years that the brothers walked together.

As the remaining half of the cigarette burned out, his eyes regained their clarity, looking at Wang Ke's smiling face, his lips squirmed for a moment, and then he said slowly: "Wang Ke, you made me think a lot, you taught me a good lesson today." I just said, I'm not as good as you, do you know what the Tao is for? ”

Wang Ke smiled and said, "What are you doing?" ”

Du Long took a deep breath and said, "I still remember that the time you came to me a year ago, you came with Cheng Tao from Brilliant Real Estate, and there were some of your friends at the beginning. Over the years, I have developed the habit of observing words and feelings, and when you introduced me, there was a young man of the same age as you beside you, and I still clearly remember his name: Wang Cungen. On that day, almost all of the people present were rich people, and in my observation, you did not snub your brother at all, I can see that he is an ordinary young man, he is not the kind of rich and noble person, and he does not have much money, and even the clothes on his body are only a few hundred yuan of bargains, but you are silently taking care of his feelings, and when introducing him, you also use the sentence 'He is my brother who grew up with his bare ass'. ”

"How many brothers I grew up with bare butts! But now, how many people are still in contact with me? The brotherhood we had before has long since disappeared with time! So, I'm not as good as you. It's just that I'm not as good as you in terms of dealing with people, in terms of that true temperament. ”

Wang Ke shook his head silently, looked at the emotion on Du Long's face, and said, "Brother Du, maybe you forgot something. ”

Du Long was stunned and confused: "What's the matter?" ”

Wang Ke opened his mouth and said: "Do you remember when I wanted to find someone to invest in my hometown Pengcheng?" You happily agreed, do you think back to that picture? Actually, I can see that you are also a man with a true temperament, the only difference between us is that I know how to maintain this friendship, while you don't know it, even if you want to have that brotherhood in your heart, but when you behave, you do it a little wrong. ”

"For example, this incident, if you could tell me what you really thought about the matter in that phone call before, when Chen Kunfu and Jiang Chao and the two of them found me, I would not be overwhelmed and confused. Moreover, if I knew the truth in advance, I would have made them regret offending you, because I, Wang Ke, really owe you a favor, and you promised me a favor to invest in Pengcheng. ”

Du Long looked at Wang Ke blankly, his lips squirmed, and he sighed: "What you said is true!" Maybe I thought to myself, but I couldn't do it. ”

Wang Ke smiled: "Of course, it's not your fault, you didn't do well, but those friends and brothers before you, they may not do well, because they didn't work hard to manage this relationship, otherwise, at the very least, there will still be life and death friends around you who can share weal and pain." ”
