Chapter 495: Punishment (2nd Update)
After leaving the club, Shi Xun summoned his partners to meet him and Jack's residence, to his surprise, Jenina also followed Ponty, and after seeing Shi Xun, Jenina greeted him casually, as if nothing happened, which made Shi Xun a little embarrassed.
"What we're going to talk about this time is related to the organization, so ...... your sister," Shi Xun said to Ponty with a frown.
"No way." Ponty spread his hands a little helplessly, "I don't want to put her in danger again, it's human nature to protect her family." ”
"Don't worry, I won't reveal anything about the organization!" Jennina glanced at Shi Xun very playfully.
"yes, yes, she's a smart person who knows what to do and what not to do." Phelps tried his best to help Jenina speak, but he didn't know that the other party already belonged to someone else.
After taking a seat, Jack became a waiter, constantly serving tea and water to everyone, he felt that this humble residence at the moment was already flourishing because of the arrival of these people, and he knew that it was not good to slack off, although he also had a good family background.
Shi Xun recounted his meeting with Goodyear and Rockefeller today, everyone felt very incredible after listening, in their opinion, the winner grovelled to meet the loser, that kind of thing is unimaginable, no one would do that, and they were not willing to do it, but when they heard the results in exchange, they couldn't help but feel deep admiration for Shi Xun's move, and at the same time, Jenina's love for Shi Xun was also stronger, and when listening, her eyes never took half a step off each other, and she was fascinated.
After listening, Ponty said: "So the relationship between us and Rockefeller is both friend and foe?" ”
"This should be the best." Shi Xun sighed and said, "The Rockefeller family is the most powerful one except for the Taft family, and it is impossible to make him obediently our people, but at least now he belongs to the same front as us, let's call it an ally, just like the United States and the Soviet Union during World War II, although the Cold War will break out between the two sides after the war." ”
"By the way, have you heard about the Whitney family today!?" Jack asked suddenly.
"Isn't it the scandal of the patriarch of the family?" Phelps sneered, "Sure enough, there are sons and fathers, and they all like to do dirty things behind their backs!" ”
"Speaking of which......," Shi Xun looked at the door as he spoke, "He should be almost there." ”
"Who!?" Phelps was curious.
Suddenly, the crisp doorbell rang, and Jack went to open the door full of doubts, only to find that it was Johnson who was standing outside the door trembling, and Jack asked with great disgust: "What are you doing!?" ”
"I ...... Actually, it's ......," Johnson, who still had a little bruise on his face, spouted.
"It's okay, let him in!" Shi Xun shouted at Jack with a smile.
Under the hateful gaze of everyone except Shi Xun, Johnson slowly entered the door, and his nervous appearance was slightly restrained.
"Sit." Shi Xun moved to the side to make room for him.
Jenina couldn't help but scold: "You damn bastard, you still have the face to come over!?" ”
"I'm sorry about that...... I apologize to everyone......" Johnson kept his head down, not daring to look directly at the others.
"Don't get me wrong, I asked him to come." Shi Xun patted Johnson on the shoulder, looking like he was relieved, "Since the Whitney family is also a victim of this incident, why can't we unite?" ”
"Shi Xun, I understand your intentions." Ponty looked serious, "But after all, he hurt my sister, I won't easily forget this account, he can join if he wants, but the premise is that he has to pay something." ”
"That's right!" Phelps followed Ponty's words, "If you dare to attack Jenina, you have to make him pay the corresponding price!" ”
"He's already tasted the bitterness, hasn't he?" Shi Xun looked at them, "People are not saints and sages, everyone makes mistakes, I think Johnson was also carried away by power at that time, so he did that, can't we give him a chance to mend his ways?" Anyway, everyone is a member of the Skull and Bones Society, and the overall situation is still important. ”
"I agree with the commander!" Jack raised his hand, "But the death penalty can be avoided and the living crime cannot be escaped, why don't you let him do a hundred push-ups as punishment, what do you think!?" ”
When Jack said this, Jenina couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Okay, I think this punishment is good!" ”
Since even the parties said so, Ponty and Phelps had no choice but to nod and reluctantly agree.
But Johnson was stunned on the spot, and looked at Shi Xun beside him pitifully, but Shi Xun just shrugged his shoulders, saying that he couldn't do anything and let him do it.
Johnson is a typical rich man, he only knows how to squander and enjoy on weekdays, and he is a real powerless, how can he stand the devastation of a hundred push-ups, and when he finishes less than fifty, he is already covered in sweat, lying on the ground motionless, like a toad, and has no strength to stand up.
While the others were laughing and coaxing, Shi Xun stepped forward and slowly helped Johnson, who was almost unconscious, and walked to the sofa, saying, "Forget it, let's do the rest later, let's talk about business first." ”
Outside the window, in a skyscraper in the distance, in a dark room, a person was looking through the window with a high-powered telescope, and as far as the eye could see, it was the scene of Shi Xun's current conversation, which could be described as clear at a glance.
On the windowsill in front of the telescope, a small plush pet with white clothes and long pointed ears is playing with its big fluffy tail by itself, looking very well-behaved.
After staring at Shi Xun for a while, the man took his eyes off the camera, and whispered a few words to the empty surroundings, as if talking to himself, clicked on his bracelet, and sent a message to whom: "Do you want to help then?" ”
After a short time, the other party replied, "You can do it yourself." ”
By the time Shi Xun finished talking to the others, it was nearly evening, and there was still a little time before the birthday party, and the two cars called by Phelps were already waiting downstairs, ready to take everyone to Taft's villa on the outskirts of the city.
Shi Xun originally planned to sit in a car with Jack and Johnson, but Jenina drove Johnson to another car, and Ponty couldn't resist his stubborn sister, so he had to agree while being puzzled.
Not only that, Jennina also asked Jack to sit in the co-pilot, and she and Shi Xun sat in the back seat together, Shi Xun certainly understood her intentions, but she did not refuse.
In this way, the two cars started their engines at the same time and went away in the sunset......
