Gandalf didn't keep Xiao Zheng in suspense. Of course, the two are clearly living under the same roof. Unless Gandalf is blind, there's no way he can pretend to be ignorant.
In a situation like this, it should be the man who is calm and the woman who is a bit shy. But with Gandalf's words, it was Xiao Zheng who felt a bit awkward while Sophia remained calm the whole time. The difference in the degree of face is obvious.
Xiao Zheng took a sip of tea to hide his embarrassment. Then he looked up with a smile: "Uncle. You didn't come here just to tease me, did you? "
In front of outsiders, Xiao Zheng really doesn't want to discuss these things. Especially in front of a big shot like Gandalf. He always felt that the other party's eyes were a bit playful and playful.
Putting down the cup, Gandalf smiled: "Fine. Let's not talk about this anymore. "After a pause, he continued: "This time, I came to pay my respects to the young master who was highly praised by Luo Yingxiong. Secondly, I want to discuss something with you. "
"What is it?" Xiao Zheng curiously asked.
A dignified New York tycoon with enough power to shake Wall Street. What matter would he need to discuss with a nobody like him?
Xiao Zheng secretly felt that Gandalf wanted to discuss this matter with Sophia through him. It's just that he didn't want to lose face and didn't want to say it out loud.
"My naughty son, you can be considered to be familiar with him, right?" Gandalf meaningfully stared at Xiao Zheng with a smile.
Xiao Zheng nodded: "He's very smart and talented." He's also talented. "
Gandalf took the opportunity to say: "You can create glory in the mercenary world and become the world's most powerful assassin. "You can create glory in the mercenary world and become the world's most powerful assassin. "You can create glory in the mercenary world and become the world's most powerful assassin. My son absolutely can't. Of course, I won't allow him to do such a thing. "
Facing Gandalf, this is a rather sharp but true statement. Xiao Zheng nodded in agreement: "Indeed." After a pause, he looked at Gandalf and asked: "Then what you want to say –"
"I don't object to him learning from you. As long as it's not too life-threatening, I'll support it. "Gandalf said frankly. "As long as he doesn't deviate from the path the family has arranged for him. As long as he doesn't take his life as a joke, I won't object. Of course, he might not listen to everything I say. "
Confused, Xiao Zheng looked at Gandalf: "I don't understand what you mean."
The originally frank and straightforward Gandalf suddenly became reserved: "For me and for the Moore family, Donnie is the heir to the new era and the leader of the family. I longed for him to encounter difficulties in business or life. But I don't want him to face a life and death situation. Not even once. "
Xiao Zheng's expression became slightly clearer, but he still said with some confusion, "With the safety measures you've arranged for him, I don't think he'll be in any danger."
"If this was said by someone else, I could treat it as someone who doesn't understand the dangers of this world. You don't understand the meaning of 'there is always a higher mountain'. "Squinting his eyes at Xiao Zheng, Gandalf said word by word. "But do you think he'll be absolutely safe with my protection?"
"In this world, there are very few people who can defeat Luo Yingxiong." Xiao Zheng vaguely guessed the meaning behind Gandalf's words.
"But you defeated him." Gandalf didn't mind Xiao Zheng's evasion in the slightest. Smiling, Gandalf said: "And defeated Hussain who is known as the strongest man in the West. To be honest, although you're not the strongest man I've ever heard of. But you're definitely the strongest I've ever seen. "
With Luo Yingxiong by his side, it's all too easy for him to learn about the strongest in this world. Even Xiao Zheng wants to chat with Luo Yingxiong about the past of the Eight Masters.
Unfortunately, he won't reveal it to me.
"You're overpraising me." Xiao Zheng said modestly.
"I'm not overpraising you, I'm just stating the facts." Gandalf smiled. "I believe Donnie has told you before that I respect and revere the strong. Whether it's an eighteen year old or an eighty year old, they're all worthy of my respect. "
Xiao Zheng awkwardly took a sip from his cup and smiled wryly: "It's a strange feeling to be respected by an elder."
"If you have the ability, then you deserve this respect. It's like finding an ordinary person on the street and letting him sit in my seat. Would he dare to sit? Would he sit well? "Gandalf said word by word. "Your mouth is modest, but your heart isn't afraid at all. That's because you have enough ability and your mental fortitude is different from ordinary people. Isn't that right? "
Xiao Zheng found out that Gandalf is better at praising people than any elder he's ever met. Just a few words from Gandalf made him feel like he's walking on clouds. Especially since he's already a super giant, his sense of accomplishment is even greater.
Slowly digesting the inflated feeling in his heart, Xiao Zheng hesitantly looked at Gandalf and asked: "Uncle, what exactly do you want to say?"
"Before I answer, can I ask you a question first?" Gandalf smiled.
"Of course." Xiao Zheng nodded.
"What do you want?" Gandalf asked bluntly.
"Hmm?" Xiao Zheng's brows slightly wrinkled. "What do you mean?"
"Literally." Gandalf smiled. "As long as you want it, as long as I have it."
Xiao Zheng looked at Gandalf incredulously: "Uncle, I don't understand. I don't understand. "
"It's very simple." Gandalf smiled. "I want to make a deal with you. No matter what conditions you give me, I'll meet them. In return, you have to promise me one thing. "
"What do you want me to do? Just say it." Xiao Zheng helplessly said. "Why do you have to make it a deal?"
"Because a debt of gratitude is the hardest debt to repay in this world." Gandalf solemnly said.
"I'm willing to serve you." Xiao Zheng's heart was beating like a drum. "As long as it's not too difficult, I'll do it."
"It's difficult." Gandalf said. "It may be life-threatening."
"Then just give me some money," Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "I'm also in this line of work. When Sophia hired me to kill people, it was for money. "
"I can't afford it." Gandalf shook his head.
This time, not only Xiao Zheng, even Sophia who was sitting quietly on the side was quite surprised.
Can't afford it?
Gandalf is one of the wealthiest people in New York and the United States. Even if Sophia counted all of her assets, she still can't catch up to Gandalf. How could he not be able to afford Xiao Zheng?
"Sophia spent 100 million pounds to take up one night of your time." Gandalf smiled. "What I'm asking you to do may take up a lifetime of your time. Do you think I can't afford it? "
