CH.17 The Plague of Rabies (6)
For two days in a row, Tan Pengcheng did feel dizzy and covered his head from time to time. City officials who attended the memorial service thought he was too sad for the tragic death of his protΓ©gΓ©, and they didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. In fact, Mayor Tan is more concerned about this dog-fighting operation. You must know that the police dog that bit Pan Tiezhi to death was personally fed by Pan Tiezhi with a piece of meat, and the feelings and tacit understanding between people and dogs are extraordinary, unless this well-trained dog goes crazy, or Pan Tiezhi wants to shoot it, it will never attack its owner in a rebellious way.
Tan Pengcheng is a very superstitious person, has a certain study of feng shui, believes in good luck, and has asked a famous master to see the appearance in private. So when he saw that the dog-beating action triggered this series of dog-biting incidents, he was worried about what kind of bad omen this was, whether it was a crime against some great god, and then affected his great future.
As soon as Tan Pengcheng was restless, he loved to go to Yue Xiaocheng to "chat".
Tan Pengcheng has had three mistresses so far, all of them are beautiful and moving, but at the same time, they are all vulgar women who love power and are greedy for enjoyment. Only Yue Xiaocheng, who obtained a master's degree in business administration at a young age, is known as the bureau flower of the Municipal Price Bureau, and the unique aromatic smell of the energetic young girl makes him fascinated. After the first madness, Yue Xiaocheng still did not reveal his true form like other women who pretended to be innocent, but generously admitted that he was not a virgin, frankly talked about his emotional experience, and said that there would be no utilitarian non-divisive requirements in future interactions. When Tan Pengcheng is frustrated, he can always comfort softly, which especially touches Tan Pengcheng, there are not many good women in today's society, and there are even fewer good mistresses.
The first few mistresses were all introduced to Tan Pengcheng by the underworld figure Chen Zhuoxing, and Tan Pengcheng no longer had contact with his original mistress since he had Yue Xiaocheng. Chen Zhuoxing immediately changed his tactics, turned to flattering Yue Xiaocheng, and gave Tan Pengcheng the key to a secret villa in the suburbs, and hid "Cheng" for him in the golden house. After Chen Zhuoxing's underworld forces happened, he also did not confess Tan Pengcheng, and no one knew about this villa.
He decided to go to Yue Xiaocheng at noon to have a good rest, and delay the dog-beating operation early tomorrow morning to see if the dog's collective anti-devouring behavior would stop because of this. Coincidentally, Yue Xiaocheng called him first and took the initiative to invite him to the Ocean Hotel for dinner. In fact, these dinners are essentially to curry favor with Tan Pengcheng or ask him to do things, and the bureau entrusted Yue Xiaocheng with his door. Yue Xiaocheng never forgot his identity, he didn't dare to make his own decisions, he only said "I'll try" every time, and only said yes or no to them after asking Tan Pengcheng. Yue Xiaocheng said that this time it was Mr. Mu Jiuxing, a little-known rookie in the real estate industry recently, and when he heard this name, Tan Pengcheng immediately remembered his background and readily agreed.
When he arrived at the high-end private room "Pengfuyuan" of the Ocean Hotel, Yue Xiaocheng and four other people were waiting for him. Of course he knows two of them, one is his protΓ©gΓ© Liang Zining, the other is Bao Yifan, and the other guy is full of red light, medium height, wearing this expensive milky white suit, it seems that it must be Mu Jiuxing, the chairman of Lanpu Real Estate. The last one was a little child, about eleven or twelve years old, who didn't look at himself, but stared at Liang Zining. Liang Zining looked embarrassed, he was taken aback from the moment he entered the door, he didn't know why his little neighbor Yunba came, what was the origin? But he was strict by nature and did not dare to say much.
There was another false greeting, and as soon as a few people sat down, after Mu Jiuxing poured wine for everyone diligently, he didn't forget to tell the child softly: "Children, what do you like to eat, just let go of your belly and eat, you're welcome!" What drinks to drink? Sprite? β
The kid pouted, "I want to drink Coca-Cola!" β
Mu Jiuxing snapped his fingers at the waitress: "Come on a big bottle!" Get a whole box of cans for your little brother to take home! β
Tan Pengcheng naturally knew what they wanted to do. They want to beat dogs, and the magnates represented by Bao Yifan have to desperately protect their beloved dangerous dog breeds, until they succeed in granting land to Mu Jiuxing, and Mu Jiuxing will vacate a piece of land to build a house for the urban management bureau when he makes a windfall, which is a chain reaction. But they don't know themselves, these days dog bite incidents occur frequently, I am afraid that it is an unlucky omen, I also want to give up the dog fighting action, it is better to push the boat down the river, get a benefit and let them be grateful, they do not lose anything.
However, this Mu Jiuxing is probably because he has a strong background, he doesn't know the rules very well, and he brought his children to participate in the banquet in a big way, this is not a wedding feast, it is a private party! Tan Pengcheng was displeased, but the water in his stomach was deep, and he still pretended to be kind and asked, "Whose child is this?" It's cute! β
Mu Jiuxing was dumbfounded: "This ...... Don't you know this kid? Tan Pengcheng was surprised and wanted to continue asking, but then he remembered that Mu Jiuxing was clearly as careful as serving the little emperor, which was like treating his own children? But they are quite alike, and they are both very dark.
Yue Xiaocheng's face flushed, and he explained unnaturally: "That...... This is my cousin Xiaoyun, I brought him for a meal after school early today...... You wouldn't mind, would you? β
Tan Pengcheng stretched out at this time, thinking that it was your relative, so there was no problem: "How come?" Of course not! In the future, if he likes it, he can bring it to eat often! After saying that, he secretly praised Mu Jiuxing as a sycophant talent. Liang Zining secretly thought, no wonder you kid is so arrogant, he hates this kid more and more.
The cold dishes were served, five hot dishes with iron plates were served, and after three rounds of wine, the topic naturally shifted to Pan Tiezhi's death. Everyone lamented that life is too fragile and too impermanent. Tan Pengcheng expected that the next step would be to talk about dog fighting, so he pretended to be careless.
The boy suddenly removed the straw from his mouth, pretended to be very sophisticated, and said, "I'll say a few words." β
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then the tension was eased a lot, and they were all amused by this child's behavior of learning to be an adult. Yue Xiaocheng was even more embarrassed.
In order to please his sweetheart Yue Xiaocheng, Tan Pengcheng said with a smile: "Say it, uncles listen to it." He deliberately changed the subject, and everyone had to swallow the matter of beating the dog back to their throats, and everyone was very anxious.
Xiaoyun took the coke and said slowly: "I know, I didn't have a chance to come at this table." I came because of her. He pointed at Yue Xiaocheng unceremoniously.
Everyone stopped chewing this time, and Tan Pengcheng was stunned: "...... you?" β
Yue Xiaocheng's face was the color of pig liver, and he lowered his head with sweat, but he didn't reprimand Xiaoyun's words. Xiaoyun laughed mischievously a few times and said, "Isn't that right? She's just a high-class prostitute. However, I have to thank this prostitute aunt. β
Tan Pengcheng's nerves seemed to have been cut off, and he was full of color: "Xiaocheng! Your cousin is so uneducated! β
Xiao Yun stretched out his delicate little hand and pushed Yue Xiaocheng's long hair presumptuously: "I'm not her cousin. β
Yue Xiaocheng seemed to be crying, her shoulders twitched constantly, and she said vaguely: "I...... I didn't know him at all...... He came to me out of nowhere this afternoon...... Threaten me, say pretend to be my cousin, and approach you...... I'm sorry Pengcheng, don't blame me...... I'm so scared......"
Tan Pengcheng couldn't help but repeat: "He...... He threatens you? Just such a child? β
Xiaoyun slowly glanced at Tan Pengcheng, and Tan Pengcheng suddenly felt like he had been hit with a heavy hammer in the chest, and the pain was terrible. He has read countless people in his life, from business tycoons to ruffians, no matter how fierce he is, he will not have this kind of beastly gaze that does not shine a trace of human nature at all, why does this look belong to an untrained child?
Xiaoyun rubbed his hands: "It's all quiet." You have eaten your food and drunk your wine, now listen to me. I'm not going to beat around the bush, let's put it bluntly, I ask Mayor Tan to help me do something that only the mayor or a person above the mayor can do, and everyone will be happy when it is done, you can whoever you like, including my aunt, hehe. But if you don't do it or you don't do it well, your life, you hear clearly, I mean, your life, it's gone. β
