Chapter 141: The Earl's Invitation
The popularity of the Internet comes and goes quickly.
A few days ago, it was a much-anticipated carnival, and various homepages were swiped.
After Dongdong stopped sharpening his knife after collecting debts, there was no live broadcast of the situation, and the popularity of related topics dropped rapidly.
Plus there will never be a shortage of "fun" in this world.
New internet hotspots take away everyone's attention, and another carnival starts elsewhere, and the old carnival comes to an end.
That night, Lu Li, who was devastated by this carnival, walked out of the Hongdong Real Estate Building, physically and mentally exhausted.
Hongdong Real Estate was blacklisted for its operation due to a number of illegal operations, and was punished by the Commercial Bureau, and all its partners ran away, and it also caused a lot of lawsuits.
But fortunately, he swallowed all the company's profits into his personal account early, and Hongdong Real Estate is already an empty shell, and he is not riddled with debts.
This company can't go on, so it's going to be replaced by another one.
If you can't do it, you won't do it, anyway, the savings will be enough to eat the rest of your life.
As for those who scolded him online
When this period of limelight is avoided, the network maggots will jump to other dung pits, just endure it for a few days.
"Hehe, thanks to the limited liability system, thanks to the inviolability of private property, you guys who can only talk on the Internet will call it slowly, Lao Tzu will live a good life."
Lu Li came to the parking lot at the back door of the company.
In the dead of night, the street lights seemed to be broken, and he could only get to the newly bought sports car in the dark.
Sitting in the cab and smelling the perfume in the car, his nerves, which had been tense for days, eased slightly.
He patted the steering wheel and muttered, "As long as I see you, my mood will improve." Tut-tut, you spent a lot of money on me, you have to help me make a few girls back, right? Why don't you go to the bar tonight and find a chick to relax?"
He started the engine, and the headlights lit up, illuminating the petite figure in front of the car.
"I'll go!" The sudden figure frightened Lu Li.
He frowned and looked at the comer.
I saw Dong Dong chewing bubble gum, holding the dragon steel baseball bat on his shoulder with one hand, standing in front of the car and shaking his legs angrily.
Lu Li was stunned for a moment, put down the window and scolded: "Why is it again?!" What are you doing? I've paid it back, what else are you going to do?! ”
“tui!” Knock Dong spat the tasteless bubble gum into the front window of the car, sticky and drooling on it.
The new car was defiled, and Lu Li was so angry that his head was about to smoke, but he didn't dare to go out, so he could only shout through the window: "You wait!" There's surveillance around here, and I'll let you know how expensive my windows are! ”
As soon as Lu Li finished speaking, he suddenly found that the surveillance cameras on the surrounding street lamps were pitch black, and there was not even a red dot representing the operating status.
"Ugh." I saw a ray of electric arc emerge from Dongdong's wrist, and a beautiful blue light was drawn along the dragon steel baseball bat.
"Lights and surveillance. Did you break it? Lu Li was no longer arrogant, and his eyes became extremely frightened, "What do you want to do?!" ”
Dong Dong waved his baseball bat in front of him, grinning, his white teeth glaring in the light of the headlights.
Lu Li realized that something was wrong, and his heart was ruthless, and he stepped on the accelerator directly and prepared to hit Dongdong.
"Boom!"
The car had just moved forward a little before it suddenly stopped with the sound of impact.
I saw a beautiful foot wearing Martin boots stepping on the front of the car.
Bang Dong kicked the ground with his left foot, and pedaled the bicycle with his right foot, and he actually stepped on the sports car with his leg strength!
"I'm grass. I grass" Lu Li was frightened, he never thought that this little Lori was an extraordinary person, and he stepped on the accelerator frantically.
"Rumbling!! Prosperous!!! "The car roared like a beast, the tires creaked against the ground, and white smoke billowed up.
However, the power of the whole body replacement of the Xuancat-type prosthetic body is extremely strong, and the power of all parts is full, like an unshakable titan, no matter how hard the sports car struggles, it can't move forward a bit.
Lu Li whimpered, opened the door in a panic and ran away, shouting for help as he ran.
But in the middle of the night, there was no one around, and no one could respond to him.
Dong Dong looked at Lu Li, who was fleeing, aimed at it with a baseball bat, and then threw it over with a whoosh.
"Boom."
The baseball bat flew into Lu Li's head, smashing him forward, and throwing him into the mud.
Before Lu Li could get up, his back was trampled.
He looked back in despair and saw the smirk.
"Old thing, give me gold coins!"
The next day, Su Mo got up.
He came to the kitchen, looked at KK and Mirai and asked, "Huh?" Haven't you gotten up yet? ”
KK shook his head: "She seems to have gone out last night, and she hasn't come back yet." ”
Dong Dong is not KK, this little girl went out in the middle of the night, and Su Mo was not worried at all.
Don't talk about meeting gangsters on the road, it's good for her not to rob others on a whim.
After the three of them finished breakfast, Dong Dong came back.
Su Mo looked up and asked, "Dong, where have you been?" ”
Knock in the door and throw a thick bulging handbag on the sofa: "Oh, for you." ”
Su Mo opened it and looked at it, and then quickly closed it: "I'll go!" How is there so much money? You're not really going out to rob, are you?! ”
The handbag was not filled with anything else, but full of monthly banknotes, all of which were of 1,000 denominations, and looked to be hundreds of thousands.
Dong Dong opened a bag of potato chips and said while eating: "I didn't rob it, I just went to beat up Lu Li's grandson, robbed his sports car and sold it to a black car dealer." ”
"The shot is more urgent, and the price is not very good. I sold the car for more than 2 million yuan, and I sold it for 800,000 yuan. ”
Su Mo listened to the music truthfully: "As for it? The commission is all done, and he is still engaged. ”
Dong Dong said confidently: "Who called him to scold me before!" If you don't give him some color, I think Ben Dong is easy to bully. ”
Su Mo looked at the money in his handbag and asked, "Are you sure you have disposed of it?" ”
Dong Dong said lazily: "Don't worry, the on-site monitoring is broken, the whole road is masked, and the black car dealer I am looking for is also the brother I have cooperated with several times, which is very reliable." Even if Lu Li's kid goes to report the case, there will be no evidence. ”
Su Mo couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
Don't really say it, Dongdong has been on the streets since he was a child, even if he is young, he is still an old man, and he does black work one by one.
If you have money, don't want it in vain, let alone the money you snatched from a rotten person like Lu Li, and you don't have any psychological burden to pick it up.
Moreover, the amount of 800,000, with the current scale of public account expenditure, can be directly deposited, which will not be too eye-catching.
Su Mo handed the handbag to KK and said to Dongdong: "I will put this money in the public account, but in your name, just tell me where you need money." ”
Dong Dong shook his hand: "Oh, it's all my own family, what's mine is yours, what's yours is mine, you don't have to be so clear." ”
"Okay~ We are righteous enough." Su Mo smiled, not polite to Dongdong.
He changed his words: "By the way, tonight you are ready, we are going to An'an New District, and Madam Earl wants to invite you to dinner." ”
Dong Dong asked suspiciously, "Lady Earl?" What else is there to call in these years? ”
"Her name is O'Diana, and she comes from a noble family, and her ancestors were hereditary earls many years ago. Although there is no such title now, out of respect, she is still called Lady Count. ”
Dongdong rolled his eyes: "This person is quite face-saving." ”
Su Mo smiled: "You're really right, Madam Earl attaches great importance to superficial work, and there are many rules at home, so I'm going to take you to buy a dress later." ”
Dong Dong couldn't help but complain: "Huh? You mean the kind of clothes on TV that look thick and bloated? That's too much trouble, can't I just wear this? ”
Su Mo shook his head: "Of course not, you and I have to change our clothes." Since you are going to someone else's house, you must abide by the rules of the other party. ”
Dong Dong let out a salted fish sigh: "Okay, okay, okay, you won't die if you wear it once." ”
After eating the potato chips, Su Mo took her to the lakeside business district, visited the high-end tailor No. 1 Susser, and bought her a tailor-made evening dress.
It was a lilac dress, and the work of a professional tailor made every part of the dress fit perfectly, and the long pink hair poured down like a waterfall of cherry blossoms, Dong Dong looked like a delicate doll.
When Dongdong looked in the mirror while wearing her clothes, even the tailors in the store were attracted by her beauty and unconsciously stopped.
However, she soon revealed her true form.
"I'll go, this garment is too tight, and my waist will be broken by it." Dong Dong sat on the sofa, habitually raised Erlang's legs and shook around, destroying all the nobility just now.
Su Mo smiled helplessly.
It's definitely too late to teach etiquette.
Dongdong, who was born on the street, is not like the kind of person who can patiently learn etiquette.
So be it.
At least the superficial work is in place.
After buying clothes, Su Mo went home and changed into the formal clothes of Sassel One, and came to the agreed place on time with Dongdong.
Outside the tunnel checkpoint leading to the An'an New District, the stretch car that greeted the two was waiting early.
"Butler McCarter." Su Mo nodded to the driver.
Maikada turned back with greetings.
Su Mo and Dongdong went through the security check and got into the car and passed through the tunnel checkpoint.
If we say, the scenery inside and outside the rusty wall is a contrast between decay and prosperity.
Then inside and outside the tunnel of the Anjing New District is a contrast between prosperity and luxury.
There are no high-rise buildings that shade the sky and the moon, no crowded traffic, and no rows of houses crowded together with low lighting.
It is full of gardener-trimmed green vegetation, lush trees in a row, and the dusk sunset shines like fiery red sand through the overlapping branches and leaves, dappled and sprinkled on the grass.
The houses in the new area are single-family villas or manors, and each household has its own courtyard, which exudes the smell of grass, flowers, and moist earth.
Occasionally, well-dressed rich people can be seen coming and going, leading the family's pet dogs for a walk, each of which is fed with bright coats and barks mightily.
Dongdong looked at the scene outside the car window, there was no novelty in his eyes, only indifference: "The thinnest dog in Anjing New District is healthier and stronger than the children in the border area. ”
Su Mo gently put his hand on Dongdong's shoulder and looked out the window with her: "Crescent City is like this, and the whole world is like this. ”
O'Diana's estate is in the heart of the new district of Tranquility, and when the car arrives, McCarter leads the two to the restaurant.
Pushing open the heavy wooden door, the heart-warming incense comes to your nose.
The restaurant is about 20 meters long and wide, dimly lit, and the candlesticks give the interior just the right amount of mystery.
The surrounding walls are hung with handwritten paintings by famous artists of the time, and the dining table covered with dark red tablecloth is neatly arranged with silver tableware, revealing the elegant taste of the owner everywhere.
O'Diana, dressed in a fiery evening gown, sat at the head of the table, the light of the candlestick fell on her face, and her fair skin was dyed with an orange halo, making her face full of mature charm even more dignified.
Su Mo could see that O'Diana was very sincere.
This time it is no longer a stand-in, but a real body.
In addition to O'Diana, there were also three middle-aged men sitting in the guest seat, judging from their well-dressed clothes, they must all be figures of status.
Su Mo remembered that Odiana liked to be greeted by others, so he took advantage of the situation to gently wrap his arms around Dongdong's shoulders and take her with her to bow slightly: "Good evening, Lady Earl, and three gentlemen." ”
O'Diana's voice was brisk: "Sit down, Housheng, and this little Housheng." ”
Su Mo sat down on the plaque with his name on it.
As soon as he sat down, he found that Dongdong did not sit down, but stood there staring at a middle-aged man.
"Boom." Su Mo called softly, "Don't stand stupidly, sit next to me." ”
Dong Dong sat down on Su Mo's left hand side, did not speak, and still stared at the middle-aged man.
The candle flame was reflected in her pupils, reflecting a faint cold glow.
What's wrong with this? Su Mo was puzzled.
But it is not convenient to ask questions on this occasion now.
As the master, Odiana took the initiative to speak, smiling and saying, "Let me introduce you, this is Su Mo, a rookie mercenary with great potential in my opinion. ”
"The little junior next to you, why don't you introduce yourself?"
Dong Dong didn't speak.
Su Mo secretly poked her waist.
Dong Dong came back to his senses and coldly spat out two words: "Dong Dong." ”
Such a "brief" self-introduction, without even a word of greeting, inevitably made the atmosphere a little silent.
Su Mo fidgeted and thought: Eldest sister, don't pretend to be cold at this time, this is not a cool place.
Luckily, neither the guests nor O'Diana cared.
The middle-aged man next to O'Diana quipped: "Sharpening the knife cat lady, it was a hot spread on the Internet a few days ago, what a little girl with personality." ”
Dongdong didn't speak, just pursed his lips and stared at him coldly.
The middle-aged man joked that he didn't get a response, and he was a little embarrassed for a while: "She doesn't seem to like to talk?" ”
Su Mo helped to play the round and said with a smile: "My Dongcub may be a little nervous when he attends the dinner party for the first time. Don't worry about it, right, who are these gentlemen? ”
O'Diana introduced, "The two next to you are Klaus and Karen, both members of the Crescent City Council. ”
She looked at the middle-aged man beside her and smiled, "This is Mr. Jacob, the director of the Rusty Wall District Security Bureau. ”
Su Mo didn't expect Odiana to invite the big man of the authorities this time, and took the initiative to get up and stretch out his hand: "Fortunately, I have admired the name for a long time." ”
When Su Mo got up, Dong Dong still didn't move.
She stared straight at Jacob, her gaze getting colder and colder, and the candle flame reflected in her pupils shone with a sharp coldness.
Jacob felt strange about this gaze, and his tone became dissatisfied: "Why are you staring at me all the time?" Did I get something on my face? ”
