Chapter 54: Chen Mo, Don't Go
The Lebles family is the largest family in the region and is the equivalent of a family in the country. In Sabai, the top four families are known as the 'Four Pillars of Shabai', and Leblais's rank is second only to these four families, and he is also a behemoth, and he is the secret ruler of Port Velon.
"No wonder Port Velun is a lawless place, backed by such a big family." I muttered.
The port of Velun is an important trade and shipping link between Shabai, Huaguo, and Dongying, and if this place becomes a land of lawlessness, then ...... Those so-called trading companies have basically become smuggling syndicates, entrainment, smuggling, powder trafficking, human snakes, and tax evasion...... It's a paradise for criminals. And Velun Port and Tianbei City echo each other, and the two places are also notorious, so it's not too cool.
There must always be dreams in life, otherwise what are you talking about when you are drunk?
Jin Jiu said with seven or eight points of drunkenness, spread his hands, pointed to the city behind him, and said, "My dream is to make a name for myself here, and everyone will call me Ninth Master in the future!" ”
"Have ambitions, Ninth Master, go one!" I raised my glass and said.
Jin Jiu patted me on the shoulder, "You are the first person to call me Ninth Master, and you will be Ninth Master's brother ...... future"
Subsequently, I lost consciousness and was carried back to the hotel by Peony.
……
When I got up in the morning, I saw that there was still a quilt left on the sofa opposite, Jin Jiu, this kid didn't know where to run, I turned my head to look at the side. Peony is resting her legs cross-legged at the end of the bed, one hand behind her head, and the other hand tossing a coin...... This posture is elegant and ruffian.
Seeing me wake up, she took out a packaged meatloaf from under her pillow and threw it to me, probably to keep it from getting cold, "I'll take you around the neighborhood after eating." ”
"Jin Jiu, where's that kid?"
"Boxing went."
In the morning, she took me around the neighborhood and told me about the Stronghold of Port Veron. There are three main forces in the University of Port Velon, the "Moslan Hotel" of the white people, the "Double Star Society" of the Mirage people, and the "Association", a worldwide dark organization. All three forces have their own docks in the port. The forces of some other countries, such as the "Laolong Commercial Bank" in China, although their power is not small, does not have their own wharf, so they can only rely on associations.
"Uh, what are you telling me all this for?" I asked Peony.
"I'd like to hear your opinion, if you want to sell your life, which owner to sell to?"
I pondered for a moment, "Out of favor, I will definitely choose the Chinese Laolong Firm." But such a world is either eating others or being eaten by others. The old dragon firm will definitely try its best to snatch its own dock. So, it's not going to be comfortable for you to go there. Those who can work harder, you are so powerful...... I'm afraid I'll be ...... again."
"Exhaust and throw away, huh?" Peony said lightly.
I nodded, "In comparison, the Mirage of the Double Star Society, who are similar in appearance to us, is probably a little easier. And the more complex the organization of the world, the better it will be for you. I think you might as well choose one of these two. ”
Peony smiled and nodded, "I can't see it, your analysis is still the Tao." If you are an ordinary person, you must choose Laolong Trading House without even thinking about it. ”
"I'm a little bit good at summarizing...... Wait, ordinary people? You said that Jin Jiu's kid ......"
"Yes, I inquired about the boxing gym he said, and it is under the Laolong Firm."
I rubbed my forehead, forget it, I can't care about him.
After being Peony's attendant for a day, he returned to the hotel with food in the evening, and Jin Jiu was recovering his strength while pretending to sleep.
After dinner, there was a knock on the door, and the innkeeper said that someone was looking for me.
Find me! I jumped up as soon as I rubbed it, who else could it be if it wasn't Lan Kexin! I called her from the hotel phone yesterday, and she must have found it.
Peony looked at my happy expression and frowned slightly, "The eldest lady of the Lan family you said came to you?" ”
"Definitely!" After saying that, I grabbed the door without looking back.
When I went downstairs and walked out of the hotel, I saw Lan Kexin, who was wearing a white mink coat, standing alone on the side of the road, rubbing her hands and breathing. Shabai is also known as the northern snow country, and she must be very unsuitable for the cold here.
"Why are you waiting outside? Also, didn't you say that it would only arrive at night? ”
Seeing me come out, Lan Kexin threw herself into my arms, "I just want to see you soon." ”
"Alone? What about your bodyguards? ”
"He's going to open a room for me in the hotel next door, let's go over together."
"You can wait for him to finish driving and then come over, don't you know how chaotic this city is? You are such a big beauty, standing here has raised the danger index of this city to a higher level. ”
Lan Kexin chuckled, "How can it be so exaggerated as you say, I just want to see you...... I don't want to wait a moment. Then he took me by the hand and said, "Let's go over, I have a lot to say to you." ”
I nodded, "Well, I'm ...... too" and then realized that I was in a hurry to get my coat and didn't even take my coat "I'll go up and get a coat and say hello to my friend." Do you want to go up together, and introduce you to the friends who have protected me all the way. ”
Lan Kexin looked at the decoration of the inn and frowned slightly, "Let's invite your friend to dinner tomorrow, and I want to thank her well, now I don't want to think about anything else except you." ”
My heart warmed and I scratched her nose, "Then you wait here for me for a while." ”
I rushed upstairs and returned to the room as fast as I could, and said to Peony and Jin Jiu while picking up my clothes, "I'll go out first, I may not come back tonight, I'll come to you tomorrow, Lan Kexin said to invite you to eat together." ”
As soon as the words ended, I turned around and saw that Peony was already blocking the door.
"What's wrong?" I asked her.
"Chen Mo, don't go." Peony said lightly.
"Why?"
"Do you believe me?" Peony asked, looking me in the eye.
For a while, the atmosphere was a little awkward, and Jin Jiu looked at us curiously. Just when I didn't know how to answer Peony, she suddenly took off her coat, and then ripped off the sweater inside, and suddenly there was only a bandeau left. Jin Jiu hurriedly turned his head away, silently reciting incivility in his heart......
"You ......" I was confused by her movements for a while.
"See these scars," Peony said to me as she stepped forward and put her nose against my chin, "and most of them are for you." Now you tell me, do you believe me or do you believe her? ”
I opened my mouth and said, "I believe both you and her." ”
After saying this, I walked out of the room bypassing Peony, and Peony just stood in place in a daze, with no intention of forcibly stopping me at all.
