Chapter 22 You still have to take care of your own family
"Honey, if there's anything you want to say, just say it." Li Ang said in an encouraging tone.
Pepper came back to her senses and looked at Leon.
"How do you know I have something to say?"
"Because I'm your boyfriend for a year." Leon shook Pepper's hand, "You have something on your mind, I can still see it." ”
Pepper smiled bitterly for a while before saying, "After the graduation ceremony, I'm going to go to Los Angeles." ”
"What are you going to do?"
"Stark is looking for an assistant, and I'm in the second round of interviews."
"Second round of interviews? When is the first round of interviews? ”
"Just the other day, I had a video interview." Pepper is getting more and more embarrassed, "I... I forgot to tell you. ”
Li Ang was not angry at all, and then asked, "Who is recruiting assistants?" ”
"It's the CEO of the group, Tony. Stark. ”
Leon raised his eyebrows: "That playboy? ”
"yes, I'm weird, I just wanted to gain more interview experience, but I talked to Mr. Stark in the video, and it felt good, and he sincerely invited me to Los Angeles for a face-to-face interview, I think... Anyway, the travel expenses are reimbursed, so I'll go and see. ”
Leon wasn't surprised at all.
Count the days, there's still ten years, Tony. Stark was about to be caught in the cave to strike iron, and Pepper was going to work as an assistant to Iron Man around this time.
"And what about your studies?" Leon asked again.
"Mr. Stark said that I could continue my studies while working as an assistant, and Dean Alexander agreed, and I could pursue a master's degree at Columbia Law School remotely in Los Angeles."
"Well, that's good."
Silent.
Both knew what that meant.
People in the United States don't believe in long-distance relationships.
It is impossible for Leon to leave everything behind and follow Pepper to Los Angeles.
He has a great future ahead of him in New York.
Some things are tacitly understood.
Being the girlfriend of a perfect man like Leon is enough for a year.
After a while, Pepper said, "I'm sorry... I didn't tell you. ”
"No more."
Leon is not a muddy man.
When you're together, you're together, and no one feels indebted to anyone, everyone is young, and there's a forest waiting for you.
Li Ang took Pepper's hand: "At least for now, we are still boyfriend and girlfriend." ”
"Of course."
"That's fine, as for the future..."Li Ang raised his eyebrows, "Maybe you were rejected for the interview, or you still have to come back and rely on me." ”
Little Pepper has a complicated expression.
"It's... Doesn't sound like a bad thing either. ”
"Alright, don't talk about it from now on."
Li Ang held up the champagne: "I don't know whether to wish you a successful interview or not, just wish you all the best." ”
"Thank you." Pepper clinks glasses with Leon.
But after only a small sip, I felt dizzy.
The next moment, he had already fallen into Li Ang's arms.
Hey, the Ecstasy for sale at the Continental Hotel works really well.
This gold coin was not spent in vain.
Leon carried Pepper to the bed and covered the quilt.
Sorry, but you can go to Los Angeles.
But you won't be able to attend tomorrow's graduation ceremony.
Because it will become a battlefield.
The glorious achievements of the members of the syndicate brotherhood are known to those in the circle.
In order to kill one person, they can directly blow up an entire apartment.
The entire restaurant was poisoned and killed, with only one being targeted by the syndicate.
There was a big fat man nicknamed the butcher who was the craziest when he did assassination missions, and he liked to use a sniper rifle with a silencer to assassinate his target.
On one occasion, after sieveing all the people in a café, not only did he not leave immediately, but he also drank condensed milk while waiting for the police to surround the café.
Then, against the police's fire, there was another sudden.
After all the bullets were fired, a total of 5 police cars exploded, 7 policemen and 12 bystanders who were killed were shot and lay on the ground, half of them directly into the target, and the remaining half and half could not live without wheelchairs for the rest of their lives.
Movies are not made with such exaggeration.
And the butcher himself ... I don't know if I was wearing body armor or because the fat was too thick, but I was shot several times, but I still left calmly.
Don't look at him weighing more than 200 kilograms, he can run with the wind.
So, there's a reason why Winston doesn't like syndicate fraternities.
Although none of the members have been caught by the police so far, and their identities have not even been identified, their style is not at all like the underworld, but more like a group of indiscriminate avengers who are extremely hostile to society.
At tomorrow's graduation ceremony, there will be such a ruthless syndicate fraternity member who will launch an assassination within 20 meters of Leon.
Of course, in terms of ruthlessness, Leon did not lose to any of them.
In order to achieve his goal, he doesn't care how many Mi people die.
Even if it's classmates and teachers.
So, who knows how many people will be affected tomorrow and be killed by the Syndicate or Leon.
However, this is the case with the exception of peppers.
's own girlfriend, Li Ang will take special care of him no matter what.
The way to do this is to use Ecstasy to keep her at home for 24 hours.
Go back and find another reason to fool around.
After covering Pepper with the quilt, Leon left the apartment and went downstairs to Ernis's house.
He had sensed that Ernis had gone home.
This will be very obedient, and come back directly from the continental hotel, without fooling around.
"Big brother." "I've helped you get a little bit of that customer's information." ”
Anyway, tell Leon the record of today's chat with Winston word for word.
After hearing this, Leon's brows furrowed tightly.
Listening to this, Winston did slip out of his mouth and accidentally revealed a very magical message.
That customer has a good reason to kill Leon!
These days, Leon gets caught up in thinking about why the client would kill him.
Finally concluded... It may be a sullen classmate or school teacher who has no money, no face and a crush on Xiao Pepper, seeing that Li Ang has everything he dreams of, so he said that Lao Tzu is not enough in this life, and got 300,000 loan sharks to ask for Li Ang's head, and committed suicide after fulfilling his wish.
It does sound like, but... Leon really couldn't think of any other reason.
But now, it seems that it is not.
The customer killed Leon and got something.
"Hell." Leon scratched his head, "What do you get by killing me?" ”
Ernis shook his head, "I really wanted to ask Winston, but I was afraid to arouse his suspicions. ”
"Well, you're doing the right thing." Li Ang thought about it again, but couldn't think of a clue, so he shook his head, "Forget it, don't think about anything you can't figure out, anyway, if the plan goes well tomorrow, we will be able to meet that customer face to face." ”
Ernis showed an extremely inauthentic smile: "Brother, tomorrow is dangerous, you have to be careful, the fierce deeds of the syndicate, you don't need me to say that you also know, especially the butcher." ”
"yes, I know." Leon said lightly, "But after tomorrow, these fierce deeds will become the deeds of the Syndicate." ”
Leon said that, went back to his apartment, and slept with the unconscious little pepper in his arms.
I slept soundly.
