Xiao Zheng ate two mouthfuls of food and shook his head with a smile, "I just want to meet the Northeast King. Firstly, I haven't decided whether to help or not. Secondly, even if I'm willing to help, I don't plan to involve Xin Ao for the time being. "
"After being in this circle for so many years, the only routine I've grasped is that before things are clear, I must protect my assets from harm. If I become a sucker, not only will I suffer losses, I will also lose face. "
Shang Yao stared at Xiao Zheng in a daze and smiled after a while, "Boss Xiao is becoming more and more like a shrewd businessman."
"Now?" Xiao Zheng smiled and asked. "Haven't I done well enough for the past few years? The outside world has hailed me as the leader of the younger generation in Hua Xia's business circle. "
"That's your talent, not your character," Shang Yao said with a smile. "This is my first time meeting Boss Xiao. You're a hot-blooded youth. You don't care about the consequences and only care about your mood. "
Xiao Zheng smiled and shook his head, "It seems that Miss Shang isn't very satisfied with my change."
"It's not that I'm not satisfied. I just miss the Boss Xiao from back then, "Shang Yao said frankly. "Patient, black-bellied, strong. I've seen too many outstanding business powerhouses. I don't need Boss Xiao to repeat the same mistakes. But a powerhouse that's like a bayonet is rare in this circle. "
Xiao Zheng smiled and played with the wine glass, "I probably can't become the person in Miss Shang's heart."
"At least it's the closest." Shang Yao smiled faintly, looking as if her scheme had succeeded. "Otherwise, why would you be willing to meet Linghu Duyi?"
Xiao Zheng smiled helplessly, "It seems that I've fallen into Miss Shang's trap again."
Shang Yao smiled and raised her cup for a toast.
About half an hour later, Linghu Duyi appeared in Longfeng House.
Due to the tense relationship between both parties, this was Linghu Duyi's first visit to the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion. As soon as he entered the house, Xiao Zheng got up to greet him and warmly said, "Boss Linghu, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
Linghu Duyi's expression was a little tense as he pursed his lips and said, "Sorry to disturb Boss Xiao."
It seemed that Linghu Duyi did not want to come. It was only because of his son's earnest request that he had no choice but to come.
After all, he was an elder. How could he have the leisure to eat and drink with a group of juniors? Firstly, it would be beneath his status. Secondly, he had nothing to talk to Xiao Zheng about.
After all, the relationship between them had always been rather tense. They didn't have any personal relationship.
After everyone took their seats, Linghu Zhu suddenly said to Shang Yao, "Miss Shang, I heard that Longfeng Brothel's massage service is pretty good. Why don't you take me there to experience it? "
Smile on Shang Yao's face as she nodded. "That's what I was thinking too."
With that, the two of them left the room without a trace. It provided enough private space for Xiao Zheng and Linghu Duyi.
"This kid is really cunning." Linghu Duyi drank a cup of wine and shook his head. "Really meddlesome."
"If a son's concern for his father can be described as meddlesome. I do hope that my son will be more troublesome in the future. "Xiao Zheng, who was also a father, said with a smile. "Boss Linghu, I'm very envious that you have a good son."
Linghu Duyi was a little stunned when he heard that. "I forgot to congratulate Boss Xiao for having a son. Come, let me offer a toast to you. "
Xiao Zheng did not stand on ceremony and gladly accepted the cup of wine.
Speaking of which, Linghu Zhu had also made a name for himself during Xiao An's first birthday banquet. He gave many gifts and drank many cups of wine. It was just that the stars were dazzling that night and he did not leave much of a presence.
After all, who could be more dazzling than Xiao Zheng among the younger generation? Who could be more dazzling than the former husband and wife, Lin Laoyao and Ye Yuhua, in the older generation?
In front of this group of people, no one could be more dazzling than the former couple, Lin Laoyao and Ye Yuhua. In front of this group of people, no one could hope to gain more glory.
The matter of him slapping Old Demon Lin's face at the banquet had long since become the topic of discussion within the circle. Although it was mostly a joke, there was no lack of malicious rumors spread by people with ulterior motives.
In short, Xiao An was destined to become the focus of attention from the day he was born. The stars sparkled.
After drinking a cup of wine, Xiao Zheng did not hide anything. He directly asked Linghu Duyi, "Boss Linghu, have you been busy recently? Have you been busy recently? "
Linghu Duyi pursed his lips and nodded. "Not bad."
"Your son has always hoped that you can retire early and enjoy a peaceful life." Xiao Zheng spoke in riddles. It could also be considered as a test.
"How can I have such a good opportunity to enjoy a peaceful life?" Linghu Duyi asked back. "What about Boss Xiao? Now that he has a wife and children, he must want to live a leisurely life, right? "
When Xiao Zheng heard this, his expression changed slightly. "Why do you say that, Boss Linghu?"
Linghu Duyi slowly put down his wine cup. A complicated expression appeared on his dignified face. "Boss Xiao is young and promising. Unfortunately, we are in a great era. Who can extricate themselves? Who isn't being pushed forward by a great wave? I am the same, and so is Boss Xiao. "
After a pause, Linghu Duyi's words were full of power and made people sigh. "I know that I have a good son. I also know that this good son of mine has done a lot of things behind the scenes. But I want to tell Boss Xiao that everything I have done is for my son. I have it, but I also need to pay for it. This is an equivalent exchange. I don't feel wronged, nor do I feel helpless. Just like Boss Xiao, if you had a choice, would you choose another path, or walk it all over again? "
Xiao Zheng shook his head and said meaningfully, "It seems that Young Master Linghu's worries are not unnecessary. This time, you are indeed in prison. "
Linghu Duyi shrugged and said, "I am known as the King of the Northeast. But I don't want my son to be limited to the Northeast forever. He should have a wider world. He also has this ability. "
Linghu Duyi kept staring at Xiao Zheng. "Boss Xiao. Since you are also a father, if there is a day in the future when you need to do everything for your son, would you be willing to do so? " "Of course." Xiao Zheng smiled.
"From the moment he was born, I could give my life for him." "From the moment he was born, I could give up my life for him."
"I am walking the only correct path," Linghu Duyi said slowly. "I am very grateful for Boss Xiao's willingness to help. But from my point of view, I don't want my son to owe you a favor that he can never repay. I also don't want those big shots that my son can't afford to offend to hate him for a lifetime. "
If Xiao Zheng was involved, if he was hurt …
Linghu Zhu would be implicated.
On the contrary, even if Xiao Zheng successfully helped Linghu Duyi. His son would also owe Xiao Zheng a favor that he could never repay.
Linghu Duyi, who had been burdened by favors for a lifetime, did not want his son to follow his old path.
