He quietly retreated to the side and stood at the side of the balcony, holding onto the railing.
It was a good position to observe the guests coming in and out of the building, as well as the situation in the hall.
Just as he took out a cigarette, a lighter came towards him. He turned around and saw that it was Fu Lin.
"Thank you." He had a good impression of this smiling fatty.
Fu Lin said, "We're family. Don't be so polite."
A waiter came over and seemed to want to say something but was chased away by him impatiently.
"Is it because you can't smoke here?" He looked at the cigarette in his hand and exhaled a melancholy smoke ring into the branches outside.
Fu Lin lit a cigar and said with a smile, "I don't know what kind of stupid rule it is. You can smoke cigars, but you can't. However, no matter what the rule is, it doesn't apply to us. Don't care about the gossip. "
"Then I'm relieved," He Zhou said, "You can't tell the accent at all."
Fu Lin said happily, "Really? I started studying in Shenzhen in junior high and then went to America to study. "
"That's good," He Zhou said.
Fu Lin said, "This is the first time we've met. We'll be friends from now on. Don't stand on ceremony with me. I'll treat you tomorrow. Please do come."
"Of course." He Zhou did not decline. Fu Lin had said it in such a serious manner that it would be rude to decline. Moreover, he could not decline even if he wanted to because his mother would definitely force him to go.
Fu Lin pointed at the girl called Andy and said, "If you're interested, I'll help you. Li Pei and Yang Huai are both married, so it's not very suitable. I think you have a good chance. "
He Zhou waved his hand and said, "I said we're not the same kind of people. You know what I mean, right?"
"Understood," Fu Lin said no more.
He sighed inwardly. Another Li Lan.
Fortunately, Li Lan already had a girlfriend. Otherwise, He Zhou would have doubted his sexual orientation.
"I don't understand these women. They say that they want so many clothes for men, but we all like to see women naked!" Li Pei also walked over and lit a cigarette. He smiled and asked, "How is it? You don't like her again? Your standards are too high. "
He Zhou said, "Your minds are full of women. Will you die if you don't talk about women? Life has a lot of fun. "
Li Pei said, "It's better than a woman's brain being filled with water. Those who can endure loneliness are good women, and those who can't resist temptation are good men. Good men are willing to give their all for a woman. Once they have money, they want to take care of a few girls."
He Zhou laughed and said, "Nonsense."
Although he was in Hong Kong, he was very anxious. He couldn't ask Liu Chen about the company's matters directly, as it would seem like he was worried about her. He could only communicate with Hao Yingming through the phone.
"How are you?" He sent her a message while lying on the hotel bed.
"Of course it's good to live in a big house of more than 70 square meters." Hao Yingming replied very quickly.
"Are you busy now?" Then, he heard the other party's voice message, "I'm very busy. I'm exhausted. The housing prices have increased again. I want to sell my house and travel around the world."
"That's a good idea." He Zhou's reply was followed by a thumbs up.
"Mr. Landlord doesn't agree …" It was a sad emoji.
He Zhou laughed involuntarily.
He replied, "Then buy it."
"I don't have money." It was another emoji with its chin resting on its hand.
He Zhou didn't have time to chat with her. After asking about the company's situation, he said goodnight to her.
He lay on the bed, unable to sleep for a long time.
Looking at the time, he finally couldn't help but send a message to Qufu.
"Are you asleep?"
"No."
Hearing the ringtone, He Zhou was surprised. He didn't expect the other party to reply so quickly.
"Why aren't you asleep?" he asked.
"I'm trying to suppress my desire to study. I have strong self-control, so I can suppress it."
"If you want to study, then study," He Zhou said.
"No, every morning when I wake up late, I want to kill my past self …"
He Zhou was about to reply when he received another message.
"Goodnight."
He had no choice but to reply, "Goodnight."
Then, he took his phone and read all the messages from beginning to end.
Suddenly, he heard a click. He craned his neck to take a look, and the door sprang open. He was shocked. Holding the trash can in his hand, he walked to the living room of the suite and realized it was his mother.
"That's scary. Can't you knock on the door?" He put down the trash can and patted his chest.
Zhao Di said, "You're talking about privacy with me?"
He Zhou said, "Of course."
He answered with certainty.
After Zhao Di sat down, she saw the ashtray full of cigarette ash and said angrily, "Are you addicted to smoking again? None of you are. "
He Zhou said, "I only smoke after drinking. I don't smoke if I don't drink. What's up? "
Zhao Di said, "Your Uncle Li wants Li Lan to go to the United States for further study. I thought that you've never been abroad before, so I'll go with you. I'll be more at ease if we go together."
He Zhou said, "I don't have time at the moment. Let's wait until the end of the year."
He thought about it and still refused.
"It's up to you. Yang Huai and Li Pei are going too."
"They're a family. They can do whatever they want. Why should I get involved?"
"Then I won't disturb your sleep." Zhao Di patted his head and smiled as she left the room.
The next day, at the dinner party at Fu Lin's house, Li Pei talked to him again, but he clearly expressed that he was not willing to attend.
Li Pei and Li Lan looked at each other helplessly.
The tour guide for this trip to the United States was Li Yi.
She had been studying in the United States for four years, so naturally, she was familiar with everything.
Li Pei and Yang Huai were fine. After all, they came here often.
In contrast, Li Lan was a bit of a country bumpkin. He didn't know much about everything.
The person who received them was Ivanov, who was in his early seventies and had a head full of white hair.
At the welcome dinner, Li Lan listened to a man who claimed to be his father's old friend. This boastful old man was called Trump, and he boasted that he was going to run for the President of the United States.
Out of politeness, Li Lan didn't laugh, and he listened with great interest.
Trump also felt like he had met a bosom friend, and he danced with joy.
However, it didn't take long for him to see this old man on the news, and he actually ran for the presidency.
A few months later, this old man became the President of the United States.
He suddenly felt that life was an absurd play.
No wonder his father often told him that the only thing that made the rich envious in the United States was that there was no distinction between the government and the business. It was the true embodiment of the saying, "When the government opens, those who are not rich can't enter."
Li Lan wanted to do a full body checkup. He didn't know if his intestines were bruised or not.
Because he clearly remembered that night, the old man had invited him to dinner and wanted to introduce his daughter to him.
He refused …
He actually refused …
Thinking about it again, he wanted to hit his head against the wall.
