Chapter 502: Left and right, each going his own way
The plan has been decided, Ning Xi left the room, Wen Liang lay alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the starlight in the sky merge into Victoria Harbor, the birds are singing and the wind is frightening, and the fish is leaping and sailing, which is like a fairy-like place, but his heart is like an ice field that has gone through thousands of years of wind and frost, except for the wind that is as cold as a knife, there is no warmth at all.
Still too slow......
In the past two years, Wen Liang has almost exhausted all her resources to develop rapidly, but despite this, it is still not as good as Ning Xi's footsteps, but in just two years, her position and the opponent she has to face are far from the level that Wen Liang can intervene and participate in.
It is true that he is a reborn person, but rebirth is not omnipotent, after all, manpower is limited, and he cannot ignore the laws of nature and society to turn soil into gold, sprinkle beans into soldiers, and shake the spirit of the king to enter the urn of the world's talents. has no background and resources, no connections and power, and every step must be exhausted, lest he accidentally lose everything, and he can't be compared with the flourishing Ning family.
So today, when Ning Xi is fighting, fighting, and facing the critical time of the upcoming bloody storm, Wen Yu can only take a step back and hide in the dark to watch.
He doesn't like it, but he can't help it!
The wind outside the window is gradually rising, and the moon is slanting in the west,
There are people in the room who are sleeping alone, and they are gone!
Early the next morning, Ning Xi went to the seventeenth floor to command a new wave of attacks against the Thai baht, and Shen Jia temporarily changed careers to become a tour guide, and took Wen Liang and Xu Yao and others to visit Pearl City. In the next seven days, a group of people watched the scenery on Taiping Mountain, ate in Causeway Bay, and shopping in Tsim Sha Tsui. Watching the flags at Golden Bauhinia Square, frolicking by the sea in Repulse Bay, experiencing the excitement of local culture at Temple Street, and enjoying the charm of European style at Stanley, you can have a lot of fun.
The small Pearl City is an important window that has endured hardships for a long time and has just opened its eyes to see the outside of the world's inland connection, and it is also a stranger of the same clan but with a completely different culture and thinking. I can only find the right opportunity next time.
On the eighth day of coming to Mingzhu, I finally waited for the day when Xu Ting could go out on vacation, and made an appointment at a very famous snack bar on Xinning Road in Causeway Bay, where Xu Yao and Chang Cheng went to the appointment, Ji Su stayed in the hotel to watch TV and rest, and Ning Xiaoning pestered Ning Xi to go to the seventeenth floor, and for the first time had close contact with the financial world.
When I arrived at Causeway Bay, there was a traffic jam on Xu Ting Road, and I was a step late. Knowing that they had found a seat, Xu Yao was still a little nervous, and looked out of the door from time to time, as if he wanted to see his brother who had grown up together. It's someone else.
Wen Liang felt Xu Yao's affection, poured her a cup of tea and handed it over, and said with a smile: "Trust me, don't worry." ”
"Hmm!" Xu Yao nodded. Holding the water glass in both hands, he lowered his head and took a sip to slowly calm down. Wen Liang's words don't count, since he said it's okay, it will definitely be fine.
After twenty minutes, Xu Ting pushed open the door and strode in, he hadn't seen him for more than a year, and time seemed to have left a little trace of vicissitudes on his face, no longer with the same vigor as before, but with a touch of tranquility and solemnity. Xu Yaoteng stood up, his hands hanging on and speculating, his fingers unconsciously bent and stretched, looking at his brother and not knowing what to say.
Xu Ting walked closer, a soft smile appeared on his axe-like face, reached out and hugged Xu Yao into his arms, compared her head after separation, and said, "Grow taller......"
Xu Yao tilted her head slightly, tears instantly appeared in her bright eyes, and said, "Brother! ”
Xu Ting smiled at her, then turned his head to look at Wen Liang, with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes, and after a while, he finally calmed down, stretched out his hand, and said kindly: "Mr. Wen, hello, welcome to Mingzhu to play." ”
It seems that Xu Ting is far away in Mingzhu, but he is not ignorant of what happened in Qingzhou, but it can be known only from this title that the two don't have to fight as soon as they meet now, but there is still a long way to go to get rid of their previous suspicions and become friends.
Wen Liang shook him lightly and said, "I heard Xu Yao say that Brother Xu was promoted, and I wanted to come over to congratulate him, but I was entangled in trivial matters and couldn't spare time, please forgive me." ”
"It's serious!"
Xu Yao stood next to her, the moment when Xu Ting and Wen Liang looked at each other just now seemed like a few hours to her, and her nervous heart was about to jump to her throat, for fear of repeating the scene when they first met.
It wasn't until the two shook hands and made peace that they finally let go of their hanging hearts, although Mr. Wen and Brother Xu may not be very familiar with each other, but after all, they are going in a good direction, aren't they?
Xu Ting and Wen Liang shook it and parted, turned around and punched Chang Cheng's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Huzi, don't come to harm?" ”
"Boss!" Chang Cheng stood upright and saluted a military salute. He knew that he was a gentle person and open-minded, and knew that he would not be suspicious because he was close to Xu Ting, so he did not hide the excitement in his heart.
"Those who have changed jobs, you don't need to salute, and don't call me any boss, call me by name or call Brother Ting."
Xu Ting had already learned from Ning Xi's eldest brother Ning Haikou that Chang Cheng was now following Wen Liang to do things, so he was not surprised that he appeared here. After saying hello, the four of them sat down separately, as the landlord, Xu Ting ordered a few signature dishes, such as pork lung soup with apricot juice, glutinous rice chicken wings, seafood steamed eggs, abalone sauce phoenix, radish cake and shrimp dumplings, etc., the taste is light, very different from Jiangdong cuisine, but it tastes unique and not bad.
Between meals, Xu Ting left the table and went to the bathroom, and when he came out, he was washing his hands, and Chang Cheng also walked in. Xu Ting washed his face, pressed his hands on the sink, looked at the wet face in the mirror, and said, "I didn't feel wronged with him, right?" ”
Chang Cheng knew that Xu Ting and Wen Liang had a knot in their hearts, and he couldn't get rid of it when he said it, and said, "There is no grievance...... Boss, there are some things that I am not qualified to say, but I feel ashamed in my heart, and I am sorry for you and the boss if I don't say sorry. If it weren't for me, things might not have gotten to this point, but in fact, after this period of contact, the boss is really not a bad person......"
Xu Ting raised his hand to stop Chang Cheng's words, and Chang Cheng said hurriedly: "Boss, I didn't help him speak because I was working under the boss now......"
"I know, Huzi," Xu Ting wiped his hands and face, and said with a straight face: "I have thought a lot during this time, and I have understood a lot of truths, I don't care about the previous things anymore, I am a married person, I shouldn't be delusional, Yaoyao's relationship with him, I won't interfere again, I believe they are so smart, they should be able to handle it themselves." As for you, Wen Liang can help you in difficult times, and as your brother, I am grateful to him from the bottom of my heart. ”
"But that's all, don't be an enemy, and you don't have to be a friend, for the sake of Yaoyao and your face, sit down like this to have a meal, have a cup of tea, and chat casually, the rest, I don't want to hear it, you don't have to say more." Xu Ting patted Chang Cheng's shoulder and said, "They should be in a hurry, let's go back." ”
Chang Cheng knew that once Xu Ting made up his mind, even if Ning Hai came, it would not work, so he had to keep silent and follow him back to the room. After the two of them were seated, Wen Liang stood up, poured a glass of wine for Xu Ting, and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, this cup wishes you a high ascension." ”
Xu Ting sat still, took it and touched the cup with him, raised his head and drank it all, and said lightly: "It's just a small battalion commander, and I can't afford to be praised by Mr. Wen." ”
The garrison of Mingzhu City adopts a mixed army, sea and air force, with a regular army level, under the jurisdiction of 1 army infantry brigade, 1 naval ship brigade, 1 air force aviation regiment, and the infantry brigade is only one mechanized infantry battalion.
Wen Liang poured another glass of wine and said: "This cup is to make amends to you for the previous things, I am young and ignorant, and there are many conflicts in my words, and I also ask Brother Xu to do a lot, don't worry about me." ”
Xu Ting was stunned, he had dealt with Wen Liang several times, and he had heard a lot of rumors about him recently, knowing that this person's scheming was a temporary choice, and in Qingzhou and even Jiangdong, he stomped his feet to make many people look sideways, but he would pour wine and admit his mistakes so humbly, which was really beyond his expectations.
Xu Ting saw the longing and pleading in Xu Yao's eyes, and when he thought of the good sister who was not afraid of heaven and earth, but now he was paying careful attention to his expression like a frightened bird, which made this iron-clad man suddenly soften.
The past is like the wind, since it has passed, it will never go back to the past, in vain worrying about it, what is the meaning of turning the madness upside down? Xu Ting sighed secretly, not for anything else, just for the sake of the brilliance in his sister's eyes no longer being so gloomy, and there was no need for this grievance to continue, he stood up and said, "Mr. Wen is serious, I also had something wrong before, please don't take it to heart either." ”
After drinking this cup, Xu Ting picked up the wine bottle, poured a glass of wine for Wen Cheng, and didn't say anything, the two touched each other, smiled at the same time, and then drank it in one gulp.
The brothers who have survived the catastrophe are here, and they meet with a smile and enmity,
Don't be an enemy, and don't be a friend,
Left and right, each going his own way,
That's it, that's enough!
Out of the hotel, Wen Liang and Chang Cheng got into the car first, Xu Ting and Xu Yao took a step behind, Xu Yao took Xu Ting's hand and said, "Brother, aren't you angry with me?" ”
"Fool, how can a brother be angry with his sister?" Xu Ting rubbed her head and said, "Laugh and be happy, my sister is a quirky little princess, she has a sad face all day long, beware of becoming ugly." ”
"Hmm!"
Xu Yao nodded vigorously, the noon sun shone on her cheeks, crystal clear, as white as jade, but it was beautiful like never before! (To be continued......)
