Book 14: Chess Pieces

The fruit of righteousness shall be peace, and the effect of righteousness shall be steady for ever.

"Master, I'm waiting left and right, waiting for you to pick me up, you're good, you have a new love and forget the old love!" Wu Zhengze said nonsense on the phone: "I knew that I shouldn't have let you get out of the house in the first place!" ”

"Catch the wind? Did you win glory for your country or did you go out to fight, and what good deeds did you do? Liu Mianmian said angrily: "If I were to go to the temple to hide for a while, quit meat, alcohol, lust, greed, and ignorance, and reflect on your life!" ”

"It's not the same if someone supports you! Then your brother Runhao asked you to see you off, will you come? ”

"What do you mean?"

"Find a bar at seven o'clock, bring your new love with you!" Wu Zhengze hung up with a grin.

Wen Ziqi frowned and said: "Dad was sentenced to eighteen years, and when he was a son, it was like winning the lottery!" ”

"He's always had such a personality, and the relationship between father and son has always been strained. The regurgitate is essentially very simple. Liu Mianmian said: "Outsiders only see gold and jade, but he endures dirt and disobedience. ”

"Born in such a family, I don't know if it's lucky or sad." Wenzi sighed.

"Actually, it's all about yourself." Liu Mianmian said: "Uncle Zhou, who partnered with my father in the early years, had a harmonious family, and the husband and wife were innocent and reasonable, but a son and a daughter were infected with drugs and died. ”

Wen Ziqi looked at her and said sadly: "No wonder you always want to shrink up and don't ask about the world." The things I heard and experienced at a young age were bloody, and it was rare that the faction was indifferent and harmless! ”

"I'm so hidden! The bird's ambition to know the bird! Liu Mianmian raised her chin to look at him.

"What Zhi, let's hear it!" Wenzi is curious.

"Be your uncle, be your Luofu, invade your life, and entangle you for the rest of your life!" Liu Mianmian said with a smile.

Look for a bar.

Liu Mianmian came to the bar for the first time, and Grandma Liu was as curious and old-fashioned as she walked around the Grand View Garden.

The elevator door opened, and immediately a waiter stepped forward to receive him, the noise was noisy and the lights were dim, and a group of demonic men and women were in the center of the stage. Looking up, a beautiful Russian woman on the second floor was writhing against a steel pipe amid the exclamations of the crowd.

Everywhere was a bartender with an open back and purple eyes holding a plate and shuttling through the bustling hall.

Wu Zhengze, wearing an exaggerated T-shirt with blue background, stood on the railing on the second floor and whistled at them.

When Wen Ziqi saw this person, he couldn't help frowning in disgust.

Guan Runhao was still elegant and complacent, with two long legs stacked up, holding a lollipop in his mouth, and looking at them with a smile.

"What to drink?" Wu Zhengze saw Wen Ziqi's disgust, and deliberately approached him with a hippie smile and asked.

"Water is fine, thank you!" Wen Ziqi avoided him and pulled Liu Mianmian to sit on the side.

"Little wonder with a cup of tequila?" Wu Zhengze turned to find Liu Mianmian.

As soon as the words fell, Wen Ziqi and Guan Runhao's warning eyes swished like arrows.

"What did you drink?" Liu Mianmian asked curiously.

"Long Island Iced Tea!" Wu Zhengze pretended to be stupid.

"Then I'll drink tea too!" Liu Mianmian smiled: "Long Island Iced Tea!" ”

Wu Zhengze laughed and made a gesture to call the bartender.

"If you want to forget your last name, drink it!" Guan Runhao looked at her playfully.

"Hey! If Xiao Qiwei wants to drink, let her drink some, this is not allowed and that is not good, just go home and squeeze the juice and drink! Wu Zhengze protested.

"Then I'll drink the juice!" Liu Mianmian said: "I have to save some sense, what if you are drunk!" ”

Wu Zhengze looked at the three people in front of him, one eating sugar, one drinking water, and the other asking for juice like a child.

"It's boring!" He muttered.

"I'll drink with you!" Wen Ziqi really wanted to clean him up.

"Oh?" Wu Zhengze's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "If you don't get drunk, you won't return?" ”

"Accompany you to the end!" Wen Ziqi stared at him and said, "The dice are bigger than the size, truth or dare!" ”

"Interesting! Willing to lose! Wu Zhengze beckoned for a dozen beers.

The first round of literature is small.

"Hehe," Wu Zhengze rubbed his hands and said, "Truth or dare?" ”

"Whatever!" Wen Ziqi said calmly.

"When was the last time you two? Is it harmonious? Wu Zhengze asked sheepishly.

"This morning, it feels great!" Wenzi's face is not red and his heart is not beating.

Liu Mianmian picked up the fruit on the table and threw it at the two of them. Angry Bai glanced at them, got up and walked away, leaned on the railing, and watched the demons dance downstairs.

Guan Runhao walked over with a can of beer in his hand and leaned side by side with her.

"Let him have fun tonight, don't worry about him." Guan Runhao smiled: "Besides, I don't think the one in your family is a vegetarian either." ”

"Oh, by the way, what does Wu Zhengze mean by giving you practice?" Liu Mianmian asked.

"We're immigrating to Canada." Guan Runhao swallowed a sip of wine: "The technical visa has come down." Preparations have been underway half a year ago. ”

Liu Mianmian looked at him in surprise: "You and Wu Zhengze?" So suddenly. There are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in Lizhou City! ”

"It's nothing, but if you see it through, there are no people and things that can be bound." Guan Runhao looked at a red figure in the distance and said, "Everyone has the right to love themselves and cherish life." ”

The woman with a red figure was none other than Duan Yaxin.

She pulled her boyfriend, who was nearly twenty years younger than herself, with light and cheerful steps, as if she was reborn.

"It's fine." Liu Mianmian nodded, same-sex marriage is legal in Canada.

"Although Wu Hairong has been subdued, Wu Zhengze can still be used as a threat. The complicated financial case, the Fengyue case, and the collusion case between officials and businessmen are all intertwined, and how many people in Lizhou City are sincerely afraid and can't sleep at night. Wu Hairong is afraid that his life in it will be difficult. Guan Runhao said quietly: "Leaving is the greatest protection for the regularity." ”

"I'll visit him on his behalf. Anyway, Wu Hairong helped my family. Liu Mianmian lowered her eyes and said, "It will be difficult for us to meet in the future." ”

Guan Runhao smiled and rubbed her hair: "In the future, it will be honey for you." ”

"So are you!" Liu Mianmian said with a smile.

"In the past, he was the one who protected me, and it should be my turn to protect him in the future!" Guan Runhao said with a smile: "The treatment abroad is good. The annual salary of an MD can reach seven figures. Enough to feed him! ”

The two chatted and drank the beer in their hands, Guan Runhao turned his head but did not see Wu Zhengze. Wenzi was already on the sofa.

Liu Mianmian hurriedly went over to help him up: "Ziqi, are you okay?" ”

Guan Runhao glanced around and found that Wu Zhengze had robbed the position of the talented Russian beauty, took off his T-shirt, bare his upper body, and danced pole dance, and a group of people watched, screaming and whistling.

He was intoxicated, half-asleep, his strong, shiny muscles full of strength, but his waist and hips twisted like water snakes, causing a group of women to howl.

The Wenzi period is really black, and the tricks of the whole person are enough to damage. Guan Runhao frowned, he really couldn't stand it, so he stepped forward to get someone.

"It's okay to play truth or dare, and you lost in the first round," Liu Mianmian muttered, "I thought you had a good amount of alcohol." ”

"Don't let him win in the first round, taste the sweetness, and trick him into striptease," Wen Ziqi raised the corners of his mouth: "I have to avenge you, don't I?" ”

"What's the matter, you're not drunk like this, how will you go home in a while, I won't drive." Liu Mianmian said annoyedly.

"That grandson's whole beer, my stomach is uncomfortably swollen from drinking, just lie here and rest." Wen Ziqi touched her face and smiled: "What a good boy, always worried about how to get home." ”

The weather was exceptionally fine on the day of the drop-off, with clear blue skies and cloudless skies.

Wenzi drove them to the airport hall. Dressed in a white linen T-shirt and gray linen baggy pants, he was lazy and casual as he pushed the luggage cart for the two.

Wu Zhengze wore sunglasses, a white T-shirt with monster graffiti, a pair of ripped jeans, and chewed gum.

Guan Runhao was wearing a retro corduroy light gray shirt and a pair of slim and simple black pants, standing there quietly.

The three of them are slender and extraordinary, and they frequently attract side eyes.

"Little wonderful," Wu Zhengze pulled Liu Mianmian to the side angrily, and said in a low ear: "Don't blame my brother, I didn't remind you, your man is not easy to deal with, so be more attentive." ”

Liu Mianmian kicked him.

"But," he suddenly became serious again, and frowned: "Your father Liu Shijun is the king, tsk, the master underestimates him!" Try not to get involved in his affairs. ”

"I think the person around me who should keep my distance the most is you!" Liu Mianmian said viciously.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, Liu Shijun is much more yin than Wu Hairong," he pointed his index finger and said: "It's enough here, hide from the sky and cross the sea, borrow a knife to kill people, secretly Chen Cang, and finally come to the bottom of the kettle to draw salary!" The most important thing is that he is not crazy, he has always had hole cards, and even sacrificed you to keep his hole cards! ”

"So what," Liu Mianmian lowered her head and said sadly, "You can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep." ”

Wu Zhengze looked at her in surprise: "I'm just stupid for you." ”

"If there is no hope, there will be no disappointment. I do everything but ask for a clear conscience. Liu Mianmian raised her head and smiled: "Brother Zheng, take care!" ”

Wu Zhengze took off his sunglasses and hugged her with a smile: "You must be good, if he dares to bully you, I will fly back to clean him up immediately!" ”

Liu Mianmian thought of the scene of Wu Zhengze dancing pole dance, and couldn't help laughing: "Maybe you have a talent for dancing, it's good to go over there to study." One day in the province, he was disgusted and slept on the streets without food. ”

"Master, can I not bring money? Joke! Wu Zhengze let go of her and said proudly: "My mother is Duan Yaxin!" Practice what you preach. ”

Guan Runhao took the luggage cart from Wen Ziqi's hand and said with a smile: "Precious! ”

Wen Ziqi stretched out his hand: "Have a safe journey!" ”

Guan Runhao didn't shake his hand, but bullied him into giving him a hug: "Take care of Mianmian, she is a rare good girl!" ”

Wen Ziqi was a little unaccustomed to it, so he had to nod: "When you go out, you should be careful and keep in touch often!" ”

Wu Zhengze, who was in the distance, saw the two hugging and hurriedly stepped forward.

Guan Runhao let go of Wen Ziqi and smiled: "Maybe we can become very good friends." ”

"I think so!" Wen Ziqi gave him a relieved smile, and he was grateful to Guan Runhao for taking care of Mianmian.

Liu Mianmian also stepped forward and hugged Guan Runhao, tears rolling in her eyes.

"I'll call you." Guan Runhao looked at her dotingly.

The two pushed the luggage cart towards the security check, did not look back, and waved their hands coolly.

"What do you mean, Guan Runhao, hug the man and the woman! Don't you take the master seriously? Wu Zhengze protested as he walked.

"That's fairer!" Guan Runhao freed up a hand to put his shoulder around him and said with a wicked smile: "Most of the foreign girls like you are a dissolute nobleman, give you a vaccination in advance, if you dare to green me once, I will definitely pay it back!" ”

Wu Zhengze looked at him stunned, instantly creepy, and his heart was desolate. His English is the pronunciation outside the Ten Rings, and he has to rely on Guan Runhao after going abroad, and he will have a long life for the rest of his life, but how can he be good?

On the way back, Liu Mianmian sat in the co-pilot and looked out the window silently.

Wen Ziqi held the steering wheel with his left hand, held her hand with his right hand and said, "What do you think, so distracted?" ”

"It feels so bad to part," she came back to her senses: "When I think of the past, it's like a world away." ”

"We'll see you again. We could go on vacation to Vancouver in the future. Fishing, sailing, going to concerts. Wen Ziqi comforted: "I hope they can rent a beautiful house." ”

Liu Mianmian smiled: "Let's go, go to Fuli Street, and buy some snacks that grandma loves to eat." ”

The two carried pastries, walked through the alley, and a group of children frolicked and chased each other, and turned into the grandmother's yard.

Liu Shijun was lying in a rocking chair holding a purple sand teapot in one hand, shaking his head and listening to the play, like a retired grandfather.

He is now guilty of being restricted from entering and leaving the area, just to accompany his old mother. When I was idle, I looked much better, and I was a lot blessed.

Hearing the footsteps, Liu Shijun sat up and said happily: "The girl is back!" ”

Grandma also came out of the hall and smiled: "This girl is the most blessed, every time I make something delicious, she smells the fragrance and comes back!" ”

Wen Ziqi called someone and handed over the pastry in his hand.

"Run so far to buy me snacks," Grandma laughed, "It's hard to be a child." ”

"We were passing by when we came back from the airport." Ziqi helped her: "Mianmian knew that you were good, so she bought some of them." ”

"Grandma, what's the stew? So fragrant? Liu Mianmian ran towards the kitchen by herself.

"Your dad somewhere got a local chicken, and I'm stewing it with beans and bamboo shoots," the grandmother smiled and looked at Wenzi period: "Child, can you eat spicy?" ”

"I don't pick a bite, I can eat anything." Wenzi period said.

"Then I'll put some pickled peppers, Mianmian likes a little spicy. She always said that the chicken was fishy, but she always stewed the chicken with the bottom of the bowl facing up. "Grandma was very happy to see her granddaughter and son-in-law.

"Mom, you raise her so badly, what should you do if you get married!" Liu Shijun was dissatisfied.

"I'm willing, as long as my granddaughter likes to eat, I'll always make it for her." Grandma Bailiu Shijun glanced at it and said: "It's you, not looking for a daughter-in-law seriously, a man in his fifties, let me, a seventy-year-old woman, take care of your three meals every day, what virtue!" ”

"Grandma, Dad, he only occupies Yang Jing who doesn't marry others," Liu Mianmian didn't think it was a big deal: "It's very troublesome to dislike people who have three aunts and six mothers-in-law!" ”

"You still hate others like that!" Grandma glared at Liu Shijun: "I said why didn't Yang Jing come to me recently." People in their fifties are not as stable as their children. ”

Wen Ziqi was praised for nothing, and he turned his head to put the dishes and chopsticks in embarrassment, after all, he was an elder, and he didn't dare to make a mistake like Mianmian.

During the meal, Liu Shijun put on the appearance of a parent: "If you want to settle down in Lizhou City, you just have to choose a good house, and I will pay." ”

"I'm used to living in my mother's house, and it's close to the flower shop," Liu Mianmian said with a sip of chicken soup, "There's really no need to break the bank." ”

"I'll do the wedding!" Liu Shijun was a little angry: "What kind of car is Ziqi driving now?" ”

"Not necessarily!" Liu Mianmian put down the spoon: "We won't hold a wedding, and the car doesn't need to be changed in the prime of life." Just take care of yourself! ”

"Mianmian!" Liu Shijun dropped his chopsticks: "I am your father, your kindness in rejecting me like this makes my heart cold!" ”

"Thank you!" Liu Mianmian said casually: "But I really don't need it." ”

"Uncle, we are still young, and my work salary is also good," Wen Ziqi said in a round: "If you are really in trouble, I will definitely open my mouth to you." ”

"Young people let them fight on their own," the grandmother put a piece of fish meat in a cotton bowl: "Don't mix it blindly." It's best to live a plain and peaceful life. ”

Liu Shijun stopped talking.

When I got home in the evening, Liu Mianmian finished washing and came out with a bath towel to wipe her hair.

Wen Ziqi said carefully: "Mianmian, you shouldn't scold your father like that, he just had an accident and is still serving his sentence, you should at least speak to take into account his feelings." ”

Liu Mianmian threw the bath towel onto the sofa and said angrily: "Why should I take care of a selfish person!" ”

Wen Ziqi hadn't seen her so angry for a long time, so he simply said bluntly: "After all, he is your father, and he is in business, but how can he be selfish to you?" ”

"Ten years ago, he prepared himself for a way back, do you think Yang Jing is just his girlfriend?" Liu Mianmian said angrily: "Trick of the eyes!" The assets of the pharmaceutical factory under Yang Jing's name are actually all owned by Liu Shijun, and Yang Jing is only a small shareholder, working for him to help him manage his property! ”

Wen Ziqi was surprised and said, "The first ten years?!" ”

"yes, so what am I to him? He would rather give up his daughter than use the coffin book! Liu Mianmian said angrily: "My poor father, my sad father back then, was chased by loan sharks and beat his father, pretending, the whole Lizhou City thought he had collapsed, and even his daughter was sent to the Wu family to exchange money, how terrible he was!" ”

"When did you find out?" Wenzi said urgently.

"Before my mother died, I called him, and he sent Yang Jing to accompany me." Liu Mianmian said sadly: "The debt has been paid off in less than four years, Yang Jing has never complained when he sends instructions, he is polite to me and my mother, and with guilt, he always wants to compensate me." I'm not a fool, so I'm looking for someone to follow up and investigate. ”

Wenzi's family background is simple and innocent, at this moment, it is like listening to a drama, how can there be a father and daughter with such a relationship.

"So your illness isn't just because your mother died? And know about your father's betrayal? Wen Ziqi said distressedly.

"For more than ten years as a husband and wife, he never visited his mother until she died." Liu Mianmian said: "I don't want to worry about him anymore, their elders have their own reasons, I hope he can live a safe life, but there have been accidents again and again, out of blood, we have done our best." But I'm still too naïve, too underestimate him, it turns out that it's a big thing, Yang Jing just needs to take care of his assets, in fact, everything is under my father's control. Including Wu Hairong, isn't it his rocker? Each of us is at his mercy like a pawn! ”

"Now I understand, in front of my grandmother, let's not talk too much in the future." Wen Ziqi said guiltily: "I'm sorry. ”

"I can't stand his hypocrisy and self-righteousness!" Liu Mianmian sighed: "He doesn't want to fill the shamelessness with material things here in me." ”

"He has always only loved himself, so why should we rush to act with him, it's boring to be self-deprecating!"
