Yue Zhao arrived very early. He was wearing a camel wool coat, accompanied by a blue striped shirt. He looked slender. He was sitting in the private room, stirring the coffee cup while subconsciously stroking his shirt. A button on the cuff.
When Xu Cinian opened the door, he happened to see this scene. As soon as Yue Zhao saw him, he immediately smiled, stood up and stretched out his right hand, “Brother Xu, you are here.”
When he smiles, he is even more radiant. It is completely different from the look that Xu Cinian had when he saw him at the entrance of the alley more than a month ago.
Xu Cinian glanced at him, and also extended his hand, “I’m sorry I’m late, something happened in the company that made you wait for a long time.”
He took off his coat and put on a loose and fat wool sweater. His hair was a little longer than before, and he was also a little fatter. Even his somewhat sharp face was softened a lot, lined with soft hair, The whole person seemed to be a few years younger, which made Yue Zhao’s face change slightly, and then he laughed again, “I just arrived, I didn’t wait long. But Big Brother Xu looked very good. You’ve grown old, but the more you live, the younger you get.”
A man who has just passed his 30s, is described as “the longer he lives, the younger he was”, and it has a meaning of praise and criticism, but Xu Cinian didn’t understand it, but he didn’t want to bother with him, and smiled as if he didn’t understand, “It’s not as young as you guys, whoever is in a relationship will definitely not want to toss himself old-fashioned, but you are still young, you’ll understand everything when you’re in love.”
His tone was very gentle, and there was a smile on his face, but the words he said slashed on Yue Zhao’s face like a blade, successfully changing his face.
What do you mean by “you’ll understand everything after you’re in love”? This is obviously ironic, and he didn’t hold Qu Cheng in his palm in the end.
In the first round, Xu Cinian blocked Yue Zhao’s words without saying a word of rebuttal.
“Sir, what would you like to drink? Here is the menu, you can take a look first.”
The waiter appeared, it was time to break the silence between the two, Yue Zhao raised the corner of his mouth again and said, “Brother Xu, I just ordered the Blue Mountain Coffee and tastes pretty good, similar to what I drank in the UK before, do you want to try it?”
Xu Cinian didn’t even look at the menu, he raised his head and said to the waiter, “Give me a cup of green tea”. Then he smiled apologetically to Yue Zhao, “I’m sorry, I’m not used to the taste of coffee, and I’ve had a little insomnia recently, so I won’t try it.”
DouDou has been four months, and he gave up all tobacco, alcohol and coffee, of course.
He won’t slam the face for Yue Zhao’s sake, it’s unnecessary, and he don’t have that kind of mind.
Yue Zhao’s offer was mercilessly rejected by Xu Cinian twice in a row, causing his face to hang on in an instant. “Brother Xu, are you still blaming what I said to you on the day the resort opened?”
Yue Zhao’s fingers covered the back of Xu Cinian’s hand, and his beautiful eyes showed sincerity, “I… I admit that I really liked Brother Cheng at the beginning, but that was all in the past. Now I have a clear distinction between things and I only treat him as a big brother. I feel very guilty about what I said at the beginning. Besides, this time you saved me, I owe you a life, and I sincerely apologize to you today, can you… don’t have such a big prejudice against me?”
The person with the thorn in his first sentence was? Besides, if you really want to target everyone who is thinking about Qu Cheng, you can’t exhaust yourself to death?
Xu Cinian thought it was funny, but he didn’t show it on his face, he waved his hand and said, “You misunderstood, I didn’t mean to target you, I really can’t drink coffee.”
“It didn’t matter who saved you that day, I will help if I can, and you don’t have to thank me, as for you and Qu Cheng, if I were really careful, I wouldn’t be sitting here today to meet you.”
Hearing this, Yue Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. With a smile on his face, “Brother Xu, it’s great that you are willing to forgive me, I’m really afraid that when I return to Qingyuan in the future, I won’t be able to see you again, so I’m in a hurry to meet you. As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter came over with the green tea.
Yue Zhao graciously took the teapot and pushed the menu to Xu Cinian. I’m not familiar with the restaurant, Brother Xu, please order it, I’ll invite you for anything this time.”
Xu Cinian didn’t say anything more this time, and looked down at the menu.
Yue Zhao glanced at him quickly, then picked up the teapot, “Drink some hot tea, let’s choose slowly.”
He made a cup of tea, rubbed his fingertips on the rim of the glass a few times, and his movements were almost negligible. At this moment, the private room door suddenly opened, and two QingLong Gang bodyguards walked in.
Xu Cinian raised his head in surprise, “Why did you guys come in?”
“Brother Cheng had an order before, saying that the city of S is not very peaceful recently, let us follow you all the time, otherwise he will deduct our monthly payment, Brother Xu, you and Yue Yue should eat and drink, just treat us as pillars.”
The two also knew Yue Zhao, and while talking to Xu Cinian, they gave Yue Zhao a familiar smile.
Xu Cinian sneered, “That rogue is an old mother, okay, since everyone is here, let’s sit down and eat together, Yue Zhao, do you mind?”
Yue Zhao was stared at by a pair of long and narrow eyes, his fingers trembled slightly, then shook his head with a smile, “Of course not, everyone is a family.”
Xu Cinian nodded with a smile, looked at the green tea in Yue Zhao’s hand and asked, “This is for me? Thank you. You.”
He stretched out his hand to pick it up, and when Yue Zhao handed it to him, his fingers suddenly shook, the cup slammed on the ground and became pieces, and even the clear cup of tea was destroyed in one fell swoop.
Hot water was sprinkled on the table, and two bodyguards helped to wipe it down. Yue Zhao quickly stood up and said with a guilt expression, “I’m sorry, the water is too hot, I didn’t mean it, Brother Xu, are you alright? I’ll do it here. Call the waiter to clean it up.”
“Don’t be busy, I’ll just call them, you are more wet than me, go to the bathroom and wipe it.”
Xu Cinian waved his hand, and Yue Zhao took a picture of the tea. The soaked wool coat, scratching his hair, walked out of the room.
When walking through the corridor, a person who looked like a customer stood at the window. As soon as he saw Yue Zhao coming out, he was about to go into the private room, but was stopped by Yue Zhao’s eyes.
He glanced in the direction of the room and shook his head very slightly.
One of them stared at his fingertips, frowning in confusion, why hasn’t he started yet?
Yue Zhao brushed past the two of them, stretched out two fingers behind his back, and then shook his head again. There were two people inside, and today’s plan was canceled.
Standing in front of the washstand, Yue Zhao carefully washed his hands, especially the gaps between his fingernails. There was a lot of white powder hidden inside. Now all of them were soaked in water and flowed into the sewer together.
After washing his hands, he stared at the gloomy self in the mirror, pursed the corners of his mouth tightly, splashed some water on his face, took a deep breath, showed a smile, turned and walked out of the bathroom.
At this time, the two people at the door of the room had disappeared. When Yue Zhao was about to push the door with his pockets in his hand, he suddenly heard Xu Cinian’s call.
“You have something to do next Saturday?”
Because the corridor is very quiet, and the sound insulation of the private rooms is not good, at this time, he can even hear Qu Cheng’s low voice coming from the receiver, “Yeah, next Saturday, the gang will give Yue Zhao half a feast for the wind and dust. Everyone has to go, this matter has been decided before, I have been busy lately and have not bothered to go to the hospital to see Yue Zhao. I already feel very sorry for him, and I have to participate in this banquet.
“What’s the matter Peacock, what do you ask this for?”
Xu Cinian chuckled and shook his head, “It’s nothing, just ask casually. Next Saturday night, I’m going to see President Chen of Shuguang Bank. I haven’t met him before. I think that you should have had an encounter with him when you were in the house of HaoTing, so I want you to be a matchmaker and help me settle down. But if you have something to do, forget it, I’ll go there alone.”
Qu Cheng burst out laughing over the phone, “Boss Xu, I’m not the God of Wealth who is prosperous, why are you taking me to talk about business?” Be nice, I will send more bodyguards to follow you that day, I miss the appointment once. Next time, the gang will be fine. No matter who you talk to about business, I will accompany you honestly. Is this the head office?
Xu Cinian laughed, “Okay, don’t treat me like a child, I just asked casually, how old you are, isn’t it just talking about business, I’ll just go by myself, and your bodyguards don’t have to follow.
He glanced at the door unintentionally as he said that, his long broken hair covered half of his eyes, his eyes only fixed on the slender figure at the door, and then quickly moved away. The two bodyguards around him didn’t find it.
Two people were tired and crooked on the phone for a while, Xu Cinian buttoned the phone, and the door of the room was opened.
“Xiao Yue you are back I am waiting for you.”
Yue Zhao was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile, “Brother Xu, why are you waiting for me?”
Xu Cinian raised his hand and tugged at him his light-colored sweater that was stained with tea. “This material is easy to stain, so I have to wash it quickly. If it can’t be washed, the clothes will be scrapped.”
“I have placed an order for the waiter just now, and the dishes will be served in a while. You wait for me for a while. I’ll go to the bathroom and come back after that let’s chat.”
After saying that, Xu Cinian got up and hurried out the door passed Yue Zhao, and the two bodyguards behind him followed closely. For a while, only Yue Zhao was left in the private room.
His eyes glanced around the room, and suddenly on Xu Cinian’s seat, he caught a glimpse of the mobile phone that was on the phone with Qu Cheng just now.
He walked in such a hurry that he even dropped his mobile phone. Does this count as a waste of time and effort?
Yue Zhao slightly raised the corner of his mouth, stuck out half of his head, stared at Xu Cinian and his bodyguards disappearing from the corner, and then quickly closed the door, taking three steps and two steps, and picked up Xu Cinian’s cell phone.
The screen was locked by a password, and he couldn’t get in. Of course, he was not interested, and even more disgusted to see the sweet talk between Xu Cinian and Qu Cheng.
He glanced around vigilantly, and when he was sure no one was there, he opened the battery back cover of Xu Cinian’s mobile phone, took out a small tracker behind a button on the cuff of his shirt, and stuck it on the inside of the mobile phone.
Putting the battery on, things the size of a grain of rice were completely blocked, and there was no clue at all. Yue Zhao confirmed it many times before closing the battery cover and putting the phone back in place, taking care of the angle and direction. After making sure everything was safe, he turned around and sat down in his seat.
He picked up the coffee and took a slow sip, Yue Zhao’s expression was full of joy and satisfaction.
It didn’t take long for Xu Cinian to walk in. Yue Zhao smiled and waved at him, “Brother Xu, you are finally back. The dishes are all served. If you don’t eat it, it will be cold. Let’s start quickly.”
Xu Cinian nodded, glanced at the phone that he had left on purpose, sat back and stuffed it back into his pocket, smiling meaningfully, “Of course, after waiting for so long, of course we have to start it quickly.”
