Chapter 30: The Gathering
On the night I returned to Guiyang, I slept soundly and felt a lot more relaxed.
It was arguably the most comfortable night I've had in recent times.
I had to stay up late to do things for the old lady the other day, so I couldn't rest, although sometimes I could catch up on sleep, but every time I closed my eyes, the appearance of the old lady and the child would come to mind from the depths of my mind
Every time they came to my mind, they didn't speak, they just looked at me silently.
I'd love to see what kind of eyes they look at me.
Is it resentment? Still dazed? Or something else.
But every time I began to observe their facial expressions, the faces of the old lady and the child were covered with a layer of fog, and no matter how hard I tried, I could not see their faces clearly, not even my eyes.
The only thing I could feel was that their gaze was calm, as still as a pool of stagnant water
At seven o'clock the next morning, my alarm went off on time.
At that time, I didn't ink on the bed like I used to do, refusing to open my eyes and get up, but opened my eyes wide as soon as the alarm clock went off, and then quickly got up.
The blind boss told me last night to get up on time and don't ink, otherwise the consequences would be serious, and he would have to come up and invite me personally.
Jumping out of bed, I put on my clothes and pants, and sighed and muttered as I picked up the cigarette case that was sitting next to my pillow.
"Brother Yi is also a problem, it's all his own people, it's okay to sell it to me, what's the matter?"
By the time I had finished washing, there was a knock on the door.
When I walked over and opened the door, there were Shen Han and Xiao An standing outside.
"Yo, you two woke up early enough." I smiled, looked down at Xiao An, and asked him, "Why don't you go to class today?" ”
"Right away." Xiao An replied, handed me the bag in his hand, and said with a smile: "This is the clothes that my father went to buy for you yesterday, let you change into them." ”
"Clothes?" I was stunned, took the bag and saw that it contained a folded suit.
"Brother Yi said, you are not young, you have to learn to clean up after yourself." Shen Han glanced at me and said, "The guests you went to see today are not ordinary, don't smash your own signboard." ”
"I think my image is good enough, I don't wear this thing." I muttered with a puzzled face: "It's better to wear a tunic than this, I must be a pyramid scheme in a suit."
"Are you going to change it?" Shen Han asked me impatiently.
"Change, definitely change." I smiled and said, "Brother Yi specially bought it for me, if I don't change it, it's not a thing, you guys come and sit down first, I'll go to the room and change my clothes." ”
Shen Han snorted and came in with Xiao An.
As it turns out, I'm still a very discerning person.
After I put on this suit, I went to look in the mirror and found that I looked like a pyramid schemer, and at the worst of all, a door-to-door salesman selling insurance.
It's better not to wear this Nima.
But it's strange to say, when I went out to let Shen Han and Xiao An take a look, they all said that it felt good and looked okay.
"You're not trying to fool me, are you?" I asked tentatively.
"No, it's not." Shen Han shrugged his shoulders: "You usually wear a shirt like a pyramid scheme, but now it's not bad to wear a suit, at least it looks like a pyramid scheme boss." ”
My face darkened: "Are you praising me or hurting me?" ”
"Praise you." Shen Han burst out laughing, looked me up and down a few times, and nodded: "It's really good, it's quite energetic." ”
"I always felt like you two were lying to me," I muttered with a puzzled look on my face.
"Hurry up, Brother Yi is waiting for you downstairs." Shen Han said.
In fact, I was also very curious at that time, especially when the blind boss asked Shen Han and them to send me clothes, I was even more curious.
Damn, how expensive is the guest you want to see this time?
There are not a few wealthy businessmen and high-ranking officials who are famous in the mainland, such as the blind boss, but I have never heard of him being so "formal" with his guests.
The last time a big man in the city invited him to dinner, didn't this girl also go in casual clothes, and the expression of walking with a cigarette on the road was more like a hooligan than me, and I didn't see him so formal at that time.
When I got downstairs, I saw that the blind boss was still the same, dressed in casual clothes, and there was a wooden chair under his buttocks that he had fished out of nowhere, sitting on the edge of the gate of the community. While smoking a cigarette and chatting with Kuroko, he kept shaking his feet, as if the sewing machine in his heart had started
"! You're finally down! The blind boss scolded without looking back, just like he had eyes behind him, and turned around and beckoned to me with a scolding attitude: "Hurry up!" Otherwise, I won't be in a hurry! ”
"Shall we all go over?" I asked.
"No, just you go with me and Uncle Fat, it's inconvenient for Xiaohan and Heizi to go, just stay and watch the store."
At the exit of the alley, a black BMW was parked there, and according to the blind boss, it was the guest who had arranged to pick us up.
The driver, a middle-aged man in sunglasses, turned his head to look at us when he heard our babbling, then turned his head to look at the road ahead and didn't even want to say hello to us.
Before getting into the car, I deliberately looked at the license plate of this car, which is from Beijing.
The blind boss was the last to get into the car, he didn't close the door, and before he could sit down, the driver stepped down and started the car directly.
"Holy shit! What are you anxious about?! Hurry up to reincarnate! The car door almost caught my brother's foot! I hurriedly held the blind boss and couldn't help but scold the driver: "You can't drive?!" Do you have any professionalism?! Go down without driving! I'll drive it! ”
"Do you know how to drive?" The blind boss asked me suspiciously, but he didn't mean to lose his temper with the driver.
"No, I'm just going to say it." I replied calmly.
The fat uncle glanced at the driver and didn't speak, but looking at his expression, this honest and honest man seemed to want to lose his temper.
The driver didn't pay attention to us at all, and he didn't mean to talk back when I scolded him, and drove silently.
Seeing this, I also lost the strength to scold.
"Brother Yi, who are we going to see?" I asked.
"A few people in the industry, and a government person." The blind boss smiled: "The people in the industry I took you to meet this time can be regarded as our seniors." ”
"Senpai?" I asked curiously, "Who?" ”
"Who else is at the helm of the three sects and nine streams?" The blind boss smiled: "Before you went to Shandong, didn't I go to deal with urgent matters, but I couldn't go to the airport to see you off." ”
"Yes! If you don't say it, I'll forget about it! I said with a sudden realization.
"It never happened, and it's been delayed until now." The blind boss sighed: "This time we met, it's also for this." ”
"The three sects and the nine streams have to be at the helm?" Something suddenly occurred to me.
The blind boss snorted and said, yes.
"Is my master here?" I asked busily.
"I forgot to tell you, among the three sects and nine streams, only our gentlemen from the lower nine streams came, and the old-timers of the three sects did not come, so no one could please move these three."
The blind boss smiled gloatingly, and when he said this, his eyes kept glancing at the driver.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but sigh, and my expression was a little lost.
Seriously, I haven't seen Old Man Zuo for so long, and I still miss him.
I heard the blind boss say that people from all walks of life have to come, and I was quite excited, but now
"Is Fang Shiliang here?" I asked.
"It should be here." When the blind boss said this, he frowned: "I can't say, that old boy has a bad temper, and he has no patience, maybe he won't come if he's not in a good mood." ”
Suddenly, the driver of the car spoke, and it was the first time he spoke since we got in the car.
"Fang Shiliang is here, he was personally invited by our captain Situ."
"Captain Situ?" I noticed these four words.
The blind boss patted me on the shoulder and motioned for me not to ask.
"He's from the government, I'll tell you later"
