At seven o'clock in the evening, I met Huo Xinlan at a café in the center of the city.

It's been almost half a year, since that night, we have cut off all contact, now we sit facing each other, leaning against the corner by the window, the light is dim and soft, this café is a famous dating mecca, all the people who come are couples, I don't know why Huo Xinlan chose such a place, she wears a long gray trench coat, jeans, a pair of orange boots on her feet, the table is small, her pink knees can even reach in front of me.

Huo Xinlan is still so good-looking, really, for decades, I have seen all kinds of beauties, and there are not a few who have even had a relationship with me, like my ex-wife, Zhou Ya, Lin Xiuyan, Tangtang, Lin Xue, Lin Shuang, they may have their own strengths and weaknesses in terms of appearance and figure, but on the whole, no one can compare to the woman in front of her, the 90-point appearance is too much, I know that there must be many scouts who have found her and want to contact her to make her debut, but Huo Xinlan's ambition is not in the entertainment industry, she wants to be a strong woman, Make your mark in the business world.

I stirred the coffee and didn't speak, Huo Xinlan stared at me for a while, and then said softly, "You have lost weight." ”

I frowned and said yes, I've been experiencing a lot of things lately, and I've been eating and sleeping pretty badly.

Huo Xinlan's pink knee touched me, I don't know if she did it on purpose or accidentally, I said what are you looking for me for, is your company okay?

Huo Xinlan shook her head and said straight to the point: "Chen Ge, my company has been in trouble recently, can you come back to help me?" ”

A simple sentence made me freeze.

I was silent for a moment before asking, "What do you mean?" ”

My tone was very unfriendly, even a little questioning and angry, Huo Xinlan must have heard it, so she looked a little apologetic, saying that I was too impulsive before, if I hurt you at that time, I will tell you sorry.

I closed my eyes.

It's a little sad.

Huo Xinlan may think that I am still a young man in my twenties, and I will be hot-headed and stunned when I see a beautiful woman, right?

She was wrong.

In the past six months, too many things have happened, since I was fired by her, my life has stagnated, I broke up with my aunt's family, and my cousin made me restless, and then my mother almost became a vegetative person, my son became someone else's species, and even I myself were involved in the world of the underworld, and I was treated as a fragrant bun by everyone, and I could only carefully maintain all aspects of the relationship, walking on thin ice every day, until now I am still half-dead, and nothing has improved.

What happened that night, I don't think it's my fault, I worked hard to save her from the summer resort, and also helped her delete all the photos, in the company, she provoked me first, I didn't force her, I didn't force her, I didn't force her, although she paid something, but I have been diligent to help her run the company, help her win the first place in the design conference, help her attract a large number of foreign customers, has paid off all her kindness.

But now?

A word of sorry and want me to be relieved?

I took a sip of coffee, obviously with added sugar, but I felt very bitter, and I said, "You came to me for this?" ”

Huo Xinlan hummed for a moment, still looked at my eyes, and said I'm sorry, I didn't pay enough attention to you before, but now I know your weight, your strength is very strong, stronger than all the designers I have seen, and now there is a popular inverted design drawing in our industry, this is a huge business opportunity, the vision and level of the people in my company are not good, and it has made me lose tens of millions, and there are rival companies...... There are basically great designers in charge, and I can't hold on anymore.

I sneered in my heart, at this moment, I didn't have too many thoughts in my heart, I just wanted to laugh.

At the beginning, the company improved, and it unloaded the mill and killed the donkey, but now the company began to decline, and ran back to me, what did you think of me?

Do you really think I don't have dignity?

"Chen Ge, come back." Huo Xinlan saw that I didn't speak, thinking that I was thinking about it, so she grabbed my hand and said urgently: "I promise to give you the position of general manager, give you an annual salary of one million, and I will give you forty percent of the dividends for every style you design and the sales after the finished product." ”

I smiled and said, "You invited me here for this?" I'm sorry, Mr. Huo, I'm not the same me anymore, reality and life tell me that as long as I have strength, I must not succumb to other people's roofs, I will start my own company recently, as for the inverted design drawing, I don't plan to make a joint venture with anyone, I have paid off all the debts I owed you before, what is a million annual salary? A few days ago, an old man promised to invest 10 million in me to be the vice president of her daughter's company, but I still refused. ”

Huo Xinlan was a little unhappy, she bit her lip and said What do you mean by this, do you think the treatment I give is very low? I admit that you are very powerful, but this is not your pampered and delicate capital, there are so many domestic designers, I don't believe that there is no more powerful than you.

I stood up and said then you can ask another master, I have always felt that our relationship is different, at least not ordinary friends, but you woke me up, you are not insincere, but the way you drove me away was too decisive, but if you apologize to me on the second day, the third day, or even within a month, say sorry, I can treat it as if nothing happened, even if you give me a salary of tens of thousands of yuan, I am still willing to help you do things. But the result? Fry me for squid, treat me like a toad, say I'm not worthy of you, these words I still remember, I'm actually a stingy person, I can't help you anymore, if there's nothing to do, I'll take my leave.

With that, I called the waiter to pay the bill and stood up.

Huo Xinlan's face was very ugly, she slapped the table, and said coldly: "Okay, you are arrogant, you have dignity, I can't climb you, I won't look for you again in the future, goodbye." ”

After she finished speaking, she left, angrily, and slammed the door away.

I looked at her back as she left, and to be honest, I felt quite uncomfortable.

As the saying goes, if you die with a face and suffer from it, it should be me, I obviously want to agree to her, but I can't let go of my face, saying some angry words is actually just to pretend to be a calf, in fact, as long as Huo Xinlan lowers her posture a little and says some soft words, I will definitely go down the steps, but she is obviously also a dignified person, which led to a breakup.

But that's fine.

Save Lin Xue from being jealous, what happened to Zhou Ya before, I don't want to see it happen to Huo Xinlan again, this can be regarded as protecting her in disguise.

Leaving the café, it was already half past eight, I followed the navigation, drove for twenty minutes, and finally met Lin Bin at a food stall, with him, there was a big man, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a Chinese face, at least one meter nine tall, his skin was tanned, he was wearing a black undershirt, and the two chest muscles on his chest were bulging like stones, and he was clinking glasses with Lin Bin with a black face.

"Big brother, you're here." Lin Bin beckoned to me, I hummed, dragged a chair and sat down, patted the big man on the shoulder, and said Brother, you are Lin Bin's friend Li Long, right?

"Brother? Whoever the hell is a brother with you. Li Long shrugged his shoulders, shook off my hand, looked angry, and said to Lin Bin, "This is your brother?" Hehe, I thought he was a great character, you look at his appearance, what kind of thing does he look like a big brother? I said that we would eat together at eight o'clock, and we didn't come until nine o'clock, and the shelf was really big. ”

I listened to his words, a little surprised, this kid looks quite young, two years older than Lin Bin, about 25, but he clearly looks down on me, yes, I dress very ordinary, I don't look like a big brother at all.

"Li Long, don't you give my eldest brother face? Do you know how awesome my eldest brother is, and everyone on the road has to revolve around him? He's so busy, what's wrong with being late? Lin Bin stared at Li Long and said viciously.

"The Black Society? Selling goods or selling people? Who are you scaring about? I'm sorry, I'm a straight person, I think what is what, I can't see what he has as a big brother, I think he only looks like a street runner. Li Long took a sip of beer and said with a sneer.

I laughed, took out a cigarette, and handed one over, Li Long didn't answer, I didn't mind, I said to him: "This person, there must be a process of struggle, I am really not a character now, but who can say for sure what will happen in the future?" Li Long, I'm short of manpower now, are you willing to mess with me? ”

"Ha, brother, I'm sorry, I see that your process is too long, and there is no chance to get ahead, you take the mirror and look at your face, lifeless, this is according to the book, it is a bloody disaster, I have seen a lot of people like you, when I was the class leader, there were many college students who came in, they came in for a lifetime, their tails were up to the sky, and they were better than anyone else, but after I trained for a week, I was as obedient as my grandson." Li Long said.

I was a little upset, but I still didn't have a seizure, but Lin Bin couldn't stand it anymore, and said Li Long, I have already given you a chance, brother now has three bars to take care of, can you come?

Li Long said: "Security? I'm sorry, the security guard of the bar is not only less money, but also more dangerous, Lao Tzu is not a watchdog when he comes back from the army, even my storekeeper is not as good, sorry, I delayed your time, I invite this meal. ”

After he finished speaking, he took out his wallet, I immediately stopped it, I said: "No, friend, it's too humiliating for me, although I don't have any ability, but this cup of coffee is still invited, business is not benevolent, I hope you and Lin Bin will still be good friends in the future, when you need money, come to me, not to mention more, I can still get 180,000 yuan." ”

"One hundred and eighty thousand ......"

Li Long muttered a word and stood up and left, I could see that he was very unhappy, perhaps, I disappointed him, he thought it was really a big brother, but after meeting, I found out that I may not even be as good as him, so he is so angry.

I pinched the bridge of my nose, and Lin Bin said, "Brother, I'm sorry, I didn't know that Li Long would ...... like this"

I said, "It's okay, it's good to have your back against the big tree, my tree is not big enough, take your time......"

Separated from Lin Bin, I came home alone, it was already more than ten o'clock, after taking a shower, Wang Dalang just sent me a message, saying that I found what I wanted, I scrolled down the screen, there were about a dozen, the content is very rich, I looked at it, my face became more and more ugly, as I expected, what a comparison, Bai He, this bastard, I will definitely make him look good.

On the second day, I went to the relevant departments, stamped the documents, and the three bars successfully entered my name, in Beicheng District, far from Wang Dalang's territory, but closer to Uncle De's summer resort, there are indeed a lot of tourists, the first day of reopening was full, fortunately Wang Dalang gave me a few more people, otherwise they may not be busy.

In the next three days, everything went smoothly, the operation of the bar was on the right track, I arranged for Lin Bin to be the manager, and called Tangtang to be the proprietress at first, she refused at first, saying that it was not suitable and inconvenient, but under my repeated insistence, she still came, I asked her not to do anything, just wait to count the money.

On the fourth day, the ex-wife and the white crane held a wedding.

It was very grand, I chartered a big hotel, I smoked for a long time that morning, and finally made up my mind to arrive at the hotel in advance, and then at about two o'clock in the afternoon, when almost all the guests arrived, the white crane in a white suit was just about to go outside to meet the bride, I quietly went around the backstage, copied the information that Wang Dalang gave me, and projected it onto the screen in the hall.

So, under the gaze of hundreds of pairs of eyes, what Bai Tsuru was doing in the room with his stepmother, that picture, that voice...... It resounded throughout the hotel.

I don't know what happened because I left early.

I only knew that the wedding was canceled, and then my ex-wife posted a message in the circle of friends, which was a wedding dress cut with scissors, with only one word attached to it: Get out.

I know I've achieved my goal, but I'm not happy, I said I'd take revenge on Hakutsuru, and I'll do what I said, and I don't want to see my ex-wife with Hakuzuru, and now it seems that their breakup is doomed.

At noon the next day, Lin Xue called me, saying that there was something to do with me, I called Lin Bin together, ready to go to the summer resort, halfway I went to the toilet, and when I came back, I found that my car was surrounded by people, Lin Bin was being beaten by several people, he saw me, and yelled from afar: "Brother, go quickly......"

I looked around, there were all people, at least twenty of them, all with weapons in their hands, I looked at one of them, his whole face was swollen, and he was holding a cigarette, it turned out to be a white crane, and when he saw me, he pointed at me and yelled, "That's him, catch him for me." ”

I didn't go, I took a look from a distance and found that Lin Bin was beaten to the point that his head was bleeding, but he was very ruthless, pulled the belt off, and beat each other with the sticks of those people.

But two fists are hard to beat four hands, and soon, Lin Bin was beaten to the ground, he crawled while waving the belt in his hand, his body was covered with blood, and those people on the opposite side were no better, and several people had blood marks on their faces.

I picked up a stick on the side of the road and rushed up, waving it at the person opposite, I turned around a few times, scared them back, I hurriedly pulled Lin Bin up, Lin Bin wiped the blood on his face, and took a mouthful.

At this time, Bai Crane and Scarface walked over, Bai He pointed at me and said, "Chen Ge, you are back, Lao Tzu has been looking for you for several days, aren't you quite kind?" Make me like this, and now start pretending to be grandchildren? ”

I said, "Shirazuru, you're still not afraid of death, are you?" ”

Bai He laughed and said, "I'm afraid that you will die first, damn, make me ruined, I must kill you and arrest me......"

When I saw some men rushing up, I waved the sticks in my hands and said to the horses, "You are troublemakers, aren't you?" Have you ever heard of Wang Dalang? I messed with him. ”

The leader is a scar face, the scar runs from the forehead to the corner of the mouth, very hideous, he hangs the stick on his shoulder, smokes a cigarette, and says Wang Dalang Of course Lao Tzu knows, but Lao Tzu is not afraid of him, they are all the four heavenly kings, my eldest sister is much more bullnose than him, if he dares to come, his father will beat him together.

I was shocked, I didn't expect this scarred face to be so big, before Liu Sanpao was squeezed out of the Four Heavenly Kings, Wang Dalang once said that person is not easy to mess with, it seems that it is the eldest sister of this scarface.

I watched the people around me outflank me, I was very nervous, really, the hotel was full of surveillance that day, and it was not surprising that Hakutsuru knew that I was the ghost, and I knew that he hated me to death by looking at his distorted appearance, and if I was caught by him, I would have to peel off my skin if I didn't die.

For example, if I were like Wang Dalang, a group of horses followed me wherever I went, would I still be so scared? In the end, the strength is still not enough, if I can get out this time, I will definitely find people as soon as possible, this kind of grandson days, I really don't want to spend a day.

Just when I was thinking about what to do, suddenly there was a piercing horn behind me, the scarface and a few horses were knocked over in an instant, the crowd vacated a gap, I took a closer look, it turned out that Lin Bin took advantage of the chaos to secretly climb into my car, I was overjoyed, Lin Bin was covered in blood, driving left and right, forcing everyone away, he drove the car to my side, I got into the co-pilot, just closed the door, the glass was broken, those horses had rushed up, smashing wildly with sticks, Lin Bin was also a ruthless character, He didn't care whether others were dead or alive, as soon as he stepped on the accelerator, he drove forward, the car drove several kilometers, and when he got on the city road, Lin Bin slowed down, wiped the blood on his face, and didn't say anything, just spit out the window.

I saw that he was not lightly injured, so I asked him to go back to the back seat, I came to drive, about half an hour later, we arrived at the hospital, after the results of the examination came out, I was relieved, Lin Bin only had a slight concussion, and the others were all traumatic, and there was nothing wrong after bandaging.

Lin Bin refused to be hospitalized, and I didn't have a problem, so I went through the discharge procedures for him at about six o'clock in the afternoon, at this time Lin Xue called me, and after I listened, the whole person froze in place.

Something went wrong.

And it's a big deal.
