The irises outside the window were in full bloom. The purple-blue petals were like beautiful butterflies. The wind blew, the petals rose and fell, and the butterflies spread their wings.
This was a row of luxurious villas, which was also the Liu family's private sanatorium.
The door of the sanatorium opened, and a black Bentley slowly drove in.
A group of people stood at the door of the villa, waiting. The man in the lead had thick eyebrows, big eyes, a wide mouth, thick lips, and a square face. His hair was combed back like an artist's, and he looked very dignified.
He was the head of the Liu family, Liu Yingnian. People called him the "Butcher of Shang Hai."
The Liu family was an old aristocratic family in Huacheng. They had deep connections and many industries. They were one of the richest families in Huacheng. The Liu family had produced outstanding people. Generations of Liu family members worked hard, which was why they had their current prestige.
The Bentley had just stopped at the door of the villa. Liu Yingnian's brother, Liu Qingtian, had already stepped forward and helped Liu Yingnian open the back seat of the Bentley. Liu Yingnian glanced at his brother, Liu Qingtian, and nodded slightly without saying anything.
In the back seat of the Bentley sat an unremarkable man. He got out of the car and said with a smile, "I'm here to see Liu Shu. Uncle Liu, you're treating me like an outsider by making such a big scene. "
Liu Yingnian reached out and shook the man's hand. He said with a smile, "Usually, I can't even wait for you to come. Now that I'm here, I have to treat you to a meal and a cup of tea."
"Since Uncle Liu says so, I'll stay in Huacheng and not leave," the man said with a smile.
"That's great. I'll host banquets every day. We won't go home until we're drunk, "Liu Yingnian said heroically.
Jiang Junling nodded with a smile and asked, "Is Liu Shu okay?"
"Yes," Liu Yingnian said with a smile, but his eyes were filled with murderous intent. "He won't die."
"I'll go in and see," Jiang Junling said.
In a spacious and luxurious room, the General Ling saw the willow tree that was rumored to be 'dead' or 'dead'.
Liu Shu's entire head was wrapped in gauze. Only his eyes, mouth, and nose had small holes.
His upper body was bare, and his sturdy chest muscles were also full of scars and were covered in white gauze of various sizes. There were also a few places with serious injuries that were wrapped in large pieces of gauze. From the outside, one could still see the reddish-brown blood that had already seeped out.
What was even more shocking was that his hands and feet were all wrapped in a special steel instrument. The instrument was lit with a yellow light, emitting a warm halo. It gave people the feeling of an incomplete Iron Man.
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, the willow tree opened its eyes. Seeing Jiang Junling coming in, Liu Shu smiled.
Yes, from his eyes and the change in the corners of his mouth, it was clear that he was smiling.
He didn't have the demeanor and despair of a seriously injured person. Instead, he had an abnormal liveliness and cheerfulness.
"I don't want to see anyone right now," said the willow tree. "They understood how I was feeling at the moment, so they helped me reject a lot of visitors. But now that you're here, it must be very difficult for them, right? "
Jiang Junling walked over and reached out to knock on the steel box on Liu Shu's leg. He asked, "Are you going to become Superman to save the world?"
Liu Shu smiled again and said, "If I were Superman, I would definitely destroy the world."
"How unfortunate." Jiang Junling smiled. "I live in the same world as you."
"These iron boxes were shipped from Germany. It is said that they have a magical healing effect on my recovery … Oh, I forgot to tell you, my leg and hand bones are all broken. It is impossible to fully recover. Fortunately, I am Liu Shu, and it happens that the Liu family is not short of money … Now, for the sake of the money, let's see how much they can help me recover. "
"What about your face?" asked Jiang Junling.
"When you just came in, I was worried that you would ask this question." Liu Shu said, "Since I woke up, I haven't looked in the mirror until now. This was impossible before. The first thing I did when I got up in the morning was to look in the mirror … "
"Actually, I don't need to look in the mirror to know how serious the injury is. Because when he grabbed those pieces of paper and threw them at me, I hadn't fainted yet. Those pieces of paper, every one of them was a knife. This face, I'm afraid, is completely ruined. "
"If it is really ruined, will the title of Huacheng's public lover be handed over to someone else?" Jiang Junling said without hesitation.
"If Huacheng chooses another Four Clowns of Huacheng, I will definitely be on the list again. And I will be the top of the Four Clowns, "Liu Shu said in a gloomy voice.
After a pause, Liu Shu said viciously, "I want to kill him."
"Lu Chaoge resigned from the school, pulled the Qin family into the partnership, and founded Chaoyan Energy Technology Company. Their core technology is the Rubik's Cube … The real, perfect, and flawless Rubik's Cube technology," said Jiang Junling with a smile. "Who are you guys working for?"
"I already know about this," Liu Shu said. "The Liu family has become a laughing stock. You don't have to specially come over to mock us."
"Only when you know shame can you be brave," Jiang Junling said with a smile. He patted the steel box on Liu Shu's body and said, "May they bless you."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
…
…
Air Force One.
Fang Yan once again sat in the high-altitude restaurant of this hotel. Looking at the mighty Qingjiang not far away, his heart was filled with emotions.
Not long ago, there was a murder case here. An innocent and kind little security guard with two warm dimples when he smiled was knocked down and killed.
The sorrow had not gone far, and the sound of crying could still be heard, but the little security guard had already been forgotten. His body was cremated, and his blood was washed away. Other than the throbbing pain in the chest of his loved ones, too much evidence of his existence in this world had been erased.
May he rest in peace!
"The rolling Yangtze River flows east, the waves wash away all heroes," Fang Yan muttered to himself. "Even heroes will be eliminated, let alone a little security guard."
"Mr. Fang, what are you lamenting about?" After Zhu Jian ordered, he walked to Fang Yan's side and stood still. Looking at the night view of Huacheng outside the window, he said, "Looking at the prices on the menu, I feel that the prices are really not worth it. But standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looking at the whole of Huacheng under your eyes, I feel a sense of heroism like a serf who has turned over a new leaf … I also feel that there's a reason why the restaurant is expensive. "
Fang Yan turned around and said to Zhu Jian in a reproachful tone, "We're not strangers. You don't know me, do you think I don't know you? There are at least 80, if not 100, restaurants in front of the school gate. Ordering a hot pot and a few bottles of beer, chatting while eating, isn't that more comfortable than drinking tasteless foreign wine and eating these uncooked steaks and greasy foie gras here? "
Zhu Jian's eyes widened and said, "You've eaten here before?"
"I've eaten once," Fang Yan said.
Zhu Jian looked embarrassed and said with some embarrassment, "I didn't order the foreign wine, steak, and foie gras you mentioned … It's too expensive."
Fang Yan waved his hand indifferently and said, "It doesn't matter what you eat. It's very important who you eat with."
"Mr. Fang's words are reasonable." Zhu Jian said with great emotion, "It's important who you eat with. Mr. Fang, you can't understand how I feel. When I was expelled from the school, everyone saw me as a snake or scorpion. Even my wife had a deep misunderstanding of me and brought the child back to her parents' home. I wanted to see the child, but I didn't even have a chance … Your own parents, wife, and child all despise you. What's the point of living in this world? "
"To be honest, it's not that I didn't want to die. But I couldn't accept it. Fortunately, you appeared. If it weren't for you, I would still be wearing that hat and carrying that burden. I wouldn't be able to eat well, and I would wake up from my dreams time and time again … Now the bitterness is over and the sweetness is beginning. I want to repay you, but I don't know how. I've been thinking that I should treat you to a meal. Have a good meal. Find the best and most expensive restaurant in Huacheng for a meal. "
"This Air Force One is too difficult to book. I asked Director Li for help, and only then did I get a table in a bad position. The private room is ridiculously expensive, and we don't even have a chance to use it. Although he was mentally prepared, his hands still trembled when he saw the price of the dishes on the menu. Mr. Fang, people … are still divided by class. I didn't believe it before, and I didn't want to believe it. Now I believe it. "
Fang Yan smiled and said, "I don't care if there's a hierarchy or not. Anyway, I prefer the small hot pot and 20 yuan draft beer at the school gate. That's life. "
"I like it too," Zhu Jian said loudly. "That's life. We can go there every day and drink every day. But this Air Force One … I might only come here once in my life. It's to invite you, Mr. Fang. Just think of it as a luxurious enjoyment. "
The two of them arrived early, and there weren't too many customers in the restaurant.
Hearing Zhu Jian's words, some people had a pensive look on their faces, but more people showed disdain.
Fang Yan felt that Zhu Jian was honest and frank, and had the righteousness and decadence of a scholar. This wasn't a bad thing.
Zhu Jian ordered a bottle of Wuliangye. This kind of domestic liquor was expensive, but compared to foreign liquor that cost tens of thousands, it was still "affordable."
The dishes were served, and the two chatted happily while eating.
Fang Yan inadvertently raised his head and saw an acquaintance walking in.
Fang Yan had no intention of standing up to greet him. He had his own friends, and others had their own lives. Why bother others?
He didn't expect that his friend would encounter some difficulties.
Fang Yan put down the cup in his hand and said to Zhu Jian, "You drink first, I'll go greet my friend."
"You have friends here?" Zhu Jian asked in surprise.
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Yan had already left.
