After eating and cleaning up, it was not early, but Xiaobai hadn't gone home yet. I didn't reply to Xiaobai's WeChat, and the phone was turned off, and I couldn't help but worry in my heart.

So I called Liu Youpeng, and Liu Youpeng said on the phone that the store was busy today, so Xiaobai is still helping in the store and told me not to worry.

hung up the phone, and a picture suddenly appeared in my mind, in which Xiaobai was stuffed into the car by a group of black-clothed people. Xiaobai struggled desperately the moment he was dragged into the car, but the group of people in black still tied Xiaobai and stuffed it into the car regardless of it.

It's just a few seconds of fugue, and I don't know if it's a purely imaginary scenario or what. But thinking about the picture that appeared in my mind just now, I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in my heart.

So I said to Xia Qing and drove to Liu Youpeng's store.

When I arrived at the store, it was already past 10 o'clock in the evening, but there was still a long queue outside for dinner.

I thought to myself, it's ten o'clock in this Nima, and this group of foodies is not afraid of fat! I'm still queuing up for something to eat!

Liu Youpeng was busy in the store, and Xiaobai was trotting between the back kitchen and the dining area.

Dragon City is a food city, and today coincides with the weekend, so it's normal for the store to be so busy. Thinking like this, the restless mind just now finally settled down.

I saw that Liu Youpeng and Xiaobai were busy, so I didn't think about going in to make trouble, lest they have to greet themselves again, so I found a small bar opposite "Happy", ordered a glass of juice and sat down.

When the bar owner saw that I didn't drink at the bar, his face was somewhat strange and unhappy, so I threw over a hundred yuan and said, "If you don't drink while driving, you won't be looking for money, but you won't arrange people for this seat, right?" ”

A glass of juice was only more than 30 yuan, and the boss borrowed the money with a smile, thanked him, and went to greet the other guests.

I sat alone outside by the window, sipping juice, and then occasionally glanced at the neon-lit façade dozens of meters across the street, thinking about it.

Whether it's Liu Youpeng or me, everyone used to be poor fishermen, but in the blink of an eye, they all became small people with small careers.

However, I still envy Liu Youpeng a little, after all, he has a craft in his hands, and he relies more on luck.

The so-called Tiangan starvation does not kill craftsmen, since Liu Youpeng can make this store prosperous, when the new store opens, it may be a different situation!

In this big city, the industry has ups and downs, and looking at the brightly dressed white-collar workers who work from 9 to 5 every day may not be able to make money, but it is easier to earn a living by opening a small shop.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a business car stop in front of the bar with a clatter, the door opened, and five black suits got out of the car.

It was followed by a BM convertible sports car, and I was wondering which SB actually drove a convertible on this cold day.

But when I saw the people getting off the car, it was not surprising, it turned out that it was Zhao Xiaoyuan, who had dealt with him several times, who got off the BM.

I haven't seen this product for a while, but I saw that this product was dressed in a riotous white suit, and a pair of zebra-print pointed leather shoes on his feet were spotlessly polished, his face was flushed, and there was an unknown smile on his face.

Not normally anyway!

Five or six black suits saw the master get out of the car, and surrounded Zhao Xiaoyuan in the middle with good training, Zhao Xiaoyuan just took out a cigarette, and immediately took out a lighter in a black suit and lit it for him.

There's no one else in this style!

I was thinking about the picture that appeared in my mind just now, and the car in the picture was actually a Buick businessman, and I was wondering if I could see the future. Or is it just a coincidence?

I remember reading in books before that there are occasional moments of déjà vu in life, but they are just deviations in memory when the brain is working.

When I was confused, Zhao Xiaoyuan led this group of people towards the bar.

Although the enemy was very red when they met, this was not the time to make trouble, so I took advantage of the time when they came over, and sat down in a dimly lit place near the bar, and glanced at Zhao Xiaoyuan and their movements from time to time.

Zhao Xiaoyuan and the others sat at the door unexpectedly, and drove a table of young people who were having dinner aside. The young man at the table wanted to reason a few words, but after being glared at viciously by a few black suits, he muttered a few words and sat aside.

"Are you sure that's where it is?" After Zhao Xiaoyuan sat down, he asked a black suit standing on the side.

"Boss, that's right! Last week, I went to dinner with a few friends at the restaurant opposite, and I happened to see the girl you mentioned! That girl didn't see it was me! The black suit stood cautiously to the side and answered, still deferential.

I saw that the direction of the black suit was Liu Youpeng's store, and I thought of the "girl" that Zhao Xiaoyuan and the black suit talked about, and thought that most of what they were looking for was Xiaobai.

"Boss, why are we drinking cold wind here? Why don't we go in and take the girl out directly? A black suit poured wine for Zhao Xiaoyuan and whispered.

"Ahem, calm down! If you can't make trouble, don't make trouble, you know? Don't fight and kill all day long, be harmonious, understand? Zhao Xiaoyuan took a sip of wine and put the wine glass on the table and said.

"Yes, yes, yes! What Mr. Zhao said is! The black suit nodded and said with a smile.

"Isn't there a meeting going on in the city these days! Be harmonious, don't cause trouble to the top, you know? Zhao Xiaoyuan added as if he was afraid that the black suit would misunderstand him.

"Worthy of the boss! To see the problem is to stand taller than us and see farther! The black suit smirked.

But the sycophants of the black suit made Zhao Xiaoyuan look very useful, he laughed after listening to it, patted the shoulder of the black suit to show encouragement, and the black suit was encouraged, and a black face squeezed out a lewd smile.

The black suit saw that Zhao Xiaoyuan was happy, so he then asked: "Boss, you are kind!" Aren't you just a girl! There are so many girls in Longding, why do you say you came all the way here? Tell me, won't we do it for you? ”

Zhao Xiaoyuan glanced at the black suit, his eyes were no longer the joke just now, and his face was a little more solemn, which made the black suit feel uncomfortable, and said in a loud voice: "Boss, you see I'm talking too much, hehehe......"

Zhao Xiaoyuan didn't pursue it, motioned to the black suits to continue staring, and took a phone to play a game.

After a while, the number of people in the bar gradually increased, but the people who came in and out saw that most of Zhao Xiaoyuan's group of people sitting at the door walked around, and the discerning people could see that this group of people was not a good person.

After sitting for more than an hour, the talents in Liu Youpeng's store were finished, and Liu Youpeng and a clerk came out to prepare for closing. Seeing this, Zhao Xiaoyuan and the others put down their wine glasses and crossed the street and hugged them.

Liu Youpeng was a little flustered when he saw Zhao Xiaoyuan and others coming, but he still pretended to be calm and continued to be busy with the matter at hand.

I saw Zhao Xiaoyuan and them passing, and I followed behind unhurriedly.

At the door of Liu Youpeng's store, Zhao Xiaoyuan stopped and looked Liu Youpeng up and down and asked, "Boss Liu hasn't seen you for a long time, and the business is getting better and better!" ”

Liu Youpeng faced Zhao Xiaoyuan, who was not good, and said in as calm a tone as possible: "Mr. Zhao? We're closed today, so if you're going to eat, you'll have to come early tomorrow. ”

The black suit standing beside Zhao Xiaoyuan saw that Liu Youpeng answered the question, and immediately said loudly angrily: "Whatever our boss asks you, you can answer whatever you want, where is so much nonsense!" ”

Liu Youpeng saw that the black suit he was talking in was a head taller than himself, and he was originally open to welcome customers to do business, so he said with a smile: "I thought Boss Zhao was here to eat." Since Mr. Zhao is not here to eat, what is the matter with me? I remember that I had already paid it back! ”

Zhao Xiaoyuan saw that Liu Youpeng was quite polite, so he said loudly: "Do you have a girl surnamed Bai here?" Call her out to me! ”

"Surnamed Bai?" Liu Youpeng pretended to think and scratched his head and said, "It seems that there is one, you are her relative?" I'll call her out later! ”

After Liu Youpeng finished speaking, he whispered a few words to the clerk next to him, and the clerk went inside to find someone, Liu Youpeng chatted with Zhao Xiaoyuan while scattering cigarettes for the black suit and others.

Zhao Xiaoyuan looked at the black suit and the others proudly, as if to say, "See? Learn a little bit from me! The black suit and the others willingly took the cigarette in Liu Youpeng's hand.

After a while, a timid little girl walked out, and Zhao Xiaoyuan asked in wonder, "Who is this?" ”

"This is our clerk, surnamed Bai, we all call her Xiaobai." Liu Youpeng replied on behalf of the girl who was a little frightened.

"What the hell is this? Let's call it Blackie! This little face is as black as it has been in Africa! The black suit standing next to Zhao Xiaoyuan said angrily.

"Ahem, how do you talk about that? You want to find Xiaobai, we only have such a girl surnamed Bai in the store, even if it is not the person you are looking for, it will not be said that the girl is not! Liu Youpeng also said a little angrily.

"Lying grass! Fool Lao Tzu, right? Two days ago, Lao Tzu was eating here, and he obviously saw Xiaobai here! Why is there no such thing as coming today! Are you hiding people? The black suit snapped.

"Mr. Zhao, there is really such a girl surnamed Bai in our store, I think you have recognized the wrong person?" Liu Youpeng said with a smile, standing not far away, I listened to the conversation between them, and thought that Liu Youpeng has really changed a lot in the past two years, after all, everyone has seen some restaurants in the past few years, and it is much more stable to treat people and things.

Even in the face of Zhao Xiaoyuan, who once forced himself to repay his debts and almost lost the store, Liu Youpeng was still polite and decent.

Seeing that Liu Youpeng had been pretending to be confused there, Zhao Xiaoyuan was also a little confused for a while, pulled the black suit over and asked, "Are you sure you saw Xiaobai here?" ”

The man in the black suit with a big waist and a round waist was pulled by Zhao Xiaoyuan, who was two heads lower than himself, and said with low eyebrows: "Boss, I saw it with my own eyes that day, how could it be wrong?" That girl looks so punctual, I can't be mistaken, brother! ”

Seeing the black suit gambling curse and swearing, and then looking at Liu Youpeng, who was surprisingly calm in front of him, Zhao Xiaoyuan couldn't hold back the gentlemanly appearance he had just pretended, and said loudly and fiercely: "Liu Youpeng, are you playing with me?" The girl my brother said was inside! Brothers, go in and search! ”

"Yes!" A few black suits standing behind Zhao Xiaoyuan were about to break in, Liu Youpeng saw that these people couldn't help but say that they wanted to break in, and he stretched out his hand to stop them, but where could they stop them, so he had to go in with them.

I stood in the dark, watching Liu Youpeng not stop anyone, thinking that Liu Youpeng probably realized something when he saw Zhao Xiaoyuan coming to ask for someone, but if Xiaobai was found by Zhao Xiaoyuan, it would be fine. I regretted a little in my heart that I didn't call Liu Youpeng and Xiaobai in advance just now, so that they could be prepared.

Just when I was in a hurry to rush over to help, I saw Liu Youpeng standing at the door smiling and squeezing his eyes at me.

It turns out that this guy has seen me a long time ago, but what kind of medicine is sold in Liu Youpeng's gourd?!
