Chapter 119: Iron-minded Master Jiu, another great general (Part 2)

"You can't tell at first glance!" Zhong Ziang raised his chin slightly, feeling elated at the achievement of saving a beautiful woman. "I'm telling you, something must have happened in that restaurant!"

Jiang Fuyue blinked, and played the essence of naivete to the extreme: "What happened?"

"How could the power go out in a perfectly good restaurant? Aren't other places around here lit?"

"so what?"

Zhong Ziang glanced around cautiously, then lowered his voice, "I suspect that Yufeng may have changed hands during the power outage!"

Jiang Fuyue's eyes dimmed slightly, and the meaning was unclear: "Really?"

"Of course! How considerate was Long to me before? As soon as I stepped into the restaurant, he sent a manager-level subordinate to greet me personally. How could he treat me like an ordinary person and send me to a private room? Well... at least he should have arranged a luxurious private room for me, right?"

“…”

"Also, when I refused to leave just now, none of his men came out to appease me. What does this mean?"

Jiang Fuyue smiled innocently: "What does it mean?"

Zhong Ziang: "This means that the Long family is in big trouble! It's hard to say whether they can still survive."

Jiang Fuyue raised her eyebrows, somewhat surprised.

I originally thought he was a fool, but I didn't expect that he could deduce that Long Tian was in big trouble.

Zhong Ziang felt that her expression showed that she didn't believe him, and he got anxious on the spot -

"Really! I have a very strong intuition that Boss Yufeng must have changed his boss!"

"……oh."

"That's it? That's all? No... Jiang Fuyue, I saved you after all, right? Can't you give me some face?"

"Okay." She nodded and started clapping, clapping, and asked, "Is that enough?"

“…”

"Then I'll take a few more shots."

Zhong Ziang: "..." Knock! I always feel like she is mocking me?

It’s so hard!

At this time, a black Land Rover drove over from a distance. The light made the two of them squint at the same time, and finally it slowly slid to a stop beside them.

The car window rolled down, revealing the man's angular, frosty profile.

"Uncle, you're here! Not too late..." Zhong Ziang felt relieved, and even his voice was two octaves higher than before.

It’s confidence and peace of mind.

Xie Dingyuan: "Get in the car."

"Oh." Zhong Ziang reached out to open the passenger door, and suddenly, he paused.

He turned around and said to Jiang Fuyue, "You sit in the back, let my uncle take you home first."

Jiang Fuyue: "Thank you, but no thanks."

Zhong Ziang immediately became furious. "You're a girl, wandering around outside in the middle of the night. You could be in danger at any moment. Besides, the buses and subways are out of service now, and it's hard to get a taxi here. Don't be stupid."

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. You can go." After saying that, she turned and left in the opposite direction.

During this period, she never looked at Xie Dingyuan, just as Xie Dingyuan had never looked at her.

"Jiang Fuyue! Stop!" Zhong Ziang chased after him, "You were fine just now? Why are you suddenly..."

He was very confused.

Weren't they chatting happily just now? Zhong Ziang thought they were friends, but Jiang Fuyue's current attitude made him uncertain.

Sure enough, women are fickle!

"I don't care, you have to get in the car today!" As soon as he opened his mouth, he unconsciously took on a commanding tone.

"What if I don't go?" Jiang Fuyue found it funny. She looked at him as if he was a jumping rooster with its wings flapping and feathers flying all over the sky.

"Why are you so stubborn?!" He is quite ungrateful.

Zhong Ziang gritted his teeth and held back the second half of the sentence.

He thought he was crazy enough and ungrateful enough, but... he didn't expect that there are always people better than you.

Jiang Fuyue was about to speak when a deep voice suddenly came.

"Zhong Ziang, are you getting in the car or not? I'll give you ten seconds."

After saying this, he raised his wrist to count the time.

He said ten seconds is ten seconds, and if it takes more than that, he will really drive away.

Zhong Ziang became anxious and grabbed Jiang Fuyue's hand like before and took her to the car.

Xie Dingyuan took a look and frowned.

The next second, he lowered his eyes and stared at the watch face.

"Five seconds left." The cold voice seemed to be devoid of any human emotion.

Zhong Ziang is still working hard.

Unfortunately, this time, no matter how hard he pulled, he couldn't move it.

Jiang Fuyue pulled her hand back, her eyes flickering across the Land Rover's gleaming light under the streetlight. Her face expressionless, her voice cold, "We're not close enough to get a ride."

Zhong Ziang: “…” What’s the big deal about being a little injured?

"Wait until you can decide for yourself whether or not to invite me in."

After saying that, he strode away.

Xie Dingyuan: "Ten seconds are up."

The man's voice, which was already cold, now seemed to have fallen into an ice cellar.

Zhong Ziang gritted his teeth, reluctantly withdrew his gaze, and finally opened the passenger door and got in.

Soon, the black Land Rover disappeared at the end of the street.

…

Inside the car, there was some silence between the uncle and nephew.

The street lamps on the side of the street were moving backwards, and the hazy yellow light shone on the man's face, casting a shadow on the other side of his nose, making his eyebrows and eyes look even colder and more unattainable.

The more Zhong Ziang thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He kept moving around without any peace.

"Why, there are nails in the seat?"

Zhong Ziang was speechless for a moment, too lazy to continue his old joke: "What do you think Jiang Fuyue's last sentence means? What does it mean - wait until I can decide for myself whether to invite her in the car? I decided for myself, right? Otherwise, who else can decide for me?"

The man's eyes darkened slightly.

Zhong Ziang was confused: "You?" He looked at Xie Dingyuan.

The latter had a blank expression on his face.

"Hiss—" The young master finally reacted, "Uncle, don't you want to send her off?"

The man's mouth tightened.

"No... why? It's just a piece of cake, not a big deal, you're so -"

Well!

Xie Dingyuan turned his head and glanced at him with a pair of cold eyes: "Too what?"

Zhong Ziang shut up decisively.

But a few minutes later he started again, still very serious: "Uncle, I think you are very ungentlemanly."

Xie Dingyuan looked straight ahead and did not respond.

"You left a fragile girl like her on the street in the middle of the night. How dangerous is that?"

"...Soft and weak? Are you sure?"

"Yes!" Zhong Ziang nodded: "What if we encounter criminals?"

"She can punch you into half a panda and throw you over the shoulder, and you think she's weak?"

Zhong Ziang: "..." Knock! Feeling humiliated.

Wait, that's not right—

"How do you know she can throw over the shoulder?"

Xie Dingyuan: “…”

"Uncle, I don't think I ever said that Jiang Fuyue threw me down, right? She pinched my neck and beat me like a panda, that's true, I admit it, but when did she throw me over her shoulder?"

Xie Dingyuan pursed his lips, forming a sharp straight line.

Zhong Ziang became even more suspicious: "Could it be that you——"

The man suddenly turned his head, his eyes as cold as a knife.

Zhong Ziang's heart trembled, and the back of his neck felt cold: "You, you really saw it?"

Xie Dingyuan was stunned: "...What?"

Zhong Ziang: "Have you ever seen her throw someone?"

"……Um."

Does personal experience count?

"Tsk, luckily it wasn't my turn..." The young master patted his chest, feeling a little scared. "By the way, was the one she threw a boy or a girl?"

Xie Dingyuan: "...Male."

"That's a bit too weak. How could he be thrown over the shoulder by a woman?"

“…” The man gritted his teeth secretly, but his face remained calm and he didn’t show any emotion.

"You can't refuse to give someone a ride just because of this, right?"

Xie Dingyuan sneered: "Do you think she needs me to give her a ride?"

Zhong Ziang muttered softly: "You didn't even take the initiative to invite them..."

"You need me to ask you to ride in my car? Zhong Ziang, you are really a nobody!"

"Are you really that embarrassed about just one sentence?"

"Shut up!"

Zhong Ziang snorted softly, "It seems my mom is right. There's a reason you haven't found a girlfriend at your age. Who would like a straight guy with a bad temper, an even worse mouth, and no sense of romance?"

Xie Dingyuan: “?”

What the hell?

"Uncle, how about we go back? Although Jiang Fuyue is a violent woman, if we meet someone she can't beat..."

"Zhong Ziang, when did you start caring about her so much?" Thinking of the "hand-holding" action of the two, the man's eyes sank to the bottom and his tone became cold.

"Huh? Me? Care about her?"

"Isn't it?"

Zhong Ziang had a strange expression: "How is it possible..."

As a gentleman, being helpful to others is a display of grace.

He just wants to be a gentleman, that's all, and it has nothing to do with "caring or not"!

That’s right!

After listening to this, Xie Dingyuan frowned and thought: "So, you two are not together?"

"When did I say I was with her?!" If he hadn't been wearing a seat belt, the young master would have jumped eight feet high.

"Then why are you holding her hand?"

Zhong Ziang was stunned. "When did I pull—eh! Is that pulling? That's pulling! She didn't get in the car, and you only gave her ten seconds. I got so anxious..."

Xie Dingyuan interrupted directly: "Do you like her?"

"Bullshit—" Zhong Ziang sat up straight, his head hitting the roof without feeling any pain. "I'm full and bored, so why would I like a woman who beat me up? Are you crazy?"

"But you said before that you wanted to pursue her." Jiu Ye had a blank expression.

"I made a bet with my classmates!"

Xie Dingyuan: "What's the result?"

Well……

"W-What's the result?"

"Did you catch up?"

“…Not yet.”

"Well," the man's expression softened slightly, his tone no longer as cold and hard as before, "That's best. If you don't like it, then don't do anything inappropriate anymore."

"Over, over the rules?" Zhong Ziang was confused.

Xie Dingyuan: "For example, sending her home, or holding her hand."

"No...what era is this? Isn't it normal to have some moderate physical contact when sending a girl home? Besides, just because she doesn't like you now doesn't mean she won't like you in the future...maybe the feeling will come after we get to know each other..." Zhong Ziang muttered softly.

"Can you say that again?"

“…” I dare not, so I just admit defeat.

Xie Dingyuan: "In short, don't mess with Jiang Fuyue. If you see her in the future, stay as far away from her as possible."

"Why?"

"Can you beat her?" A knowing blow.

“…I can’t beat him.”

"Can you guarantee that she won't beat you?" Second strike.

"……cannot."

"If you hold her hand, you must be responsible for her. Can you do it?"

Zhong Ziang's eyes were dazed. "What responsibility?"

Xie Dingyuan: "Marry her."

"?"

The young master was confused. Hadn't they been discussing "sending Jiang Fuyue home"? Why did it become a topic of "he marrying her" now?

"Why, you don't understand?"

Zhong Ziang shook his head, he really didn’t understand.

Xie Dingyuan: "First, you can't conquer her, either intellectually or physically. Second, you made a bet with your classmates to pursue a girl, which is very bad behavior. Finally, why flirt with her if you don't want to marry her? Any relationship that doesn't have the premise of marriage is hooliganism."

Zhong Ziang was stunned and stunned.

He wasn't finished yet, but continued, "If you don't believe me, try it. If you dare to do it, I'll break your dog legs."

Zhong Ziang rolled his eyes.

Killed in action!

…

On the other side, Jiang Fuyue and Zhong Ziang separated and walked straight back.

But I saw the manager and Xiaoliu pulling each other at the restaurant door, as if they were arguing.

"Why don't you let me check? The whole restaurant belongs to my sister Yue now. Who do you think you are?"

The manager's expression remained unchanged: "I can check it, but it shouldn't pass through your hands first."

"Bullshit—don't think I can do anything just because you're hiding the safe combination. Believe it or not, I'll just smash it in my hand. Let's see who's tougher!"

The manager remained unmoved: "Go ahead."

"Alright, if you don't accept my toast, I'll punish you—" Xiaoliu reached out and grabbed his collar, "I'll grant your wish today!"

"Let's talk it over nicely. What do you want to do?!" No matter how calm you are, it's hard not to panic in the face of absolutely powerful force.

"Tsk, are you scared? I thought you were so tough, but you turned out to be a wimp."

"What are you doing?" Jiang Fuyue's voice came from not far away.

Xiao Liu snorted coldly and let go: "Sister Yue, this person refuses to tell us the password to the study safe."

Jiang Fuyue shot a cold gaze at him.

The manager felt a chill on the back of his neck and his scalp went numb. In panic, he unconsciously lowered his eyelids to avoid looking at her.

Jiang Fuyue: "Long Tian has already collapsed. From how you easily appeased those customers just now, I thought you were a smart person."

A smart person should know how to judge the situation.

The manager kept his eyes downcast. “But even smart people have their limits.”

"Oh?" Jiang Fuyue raised an eyebrow. "So, I've crossed your line?"

The manager suddenly raised his eyes, his gaze calm: "You dealt with Long Tian, ​​so logically the entire Yufeng should be yours. But if Yufeng didn't belong to Long Tian in the first place, what qualifications do you have to occupy it?"

He used the word "occupy".

Jiang Fuyue's eyes were as calm as water, "What do you mean 'not Long Tian'?"

"Back then, the real owner of Yufeng simply let Long Tian manage it on his behalf, that's all."

At this point, the man grinned, as if he had seen something funny. "If you think that by killing Long Tian, ​​you can swallow Yu Feng, then you are gravely mistaken. I advise you to stop as soon as possible. Even if I tell you the safe combination, you can't touch the things inside."

“How do you know if you don’t try?”

"Heh... Do you think Long Tian didn't try? He's been working so hard for twenty years, and ended up like this. In the final analysis, it's all because of greed. What you're doing now may not be the same as what he did back then!"

Jiang Fuyue's eyes flashed with interest: "From what you said, Long Tian deserved it, but isn't he your boss?"

"Tsk - I've always had only one boss, but it's not him!" When he said this, a strange light suddenly burst out in the eyes of the man who was originally a little afraid.

"Who is it?"

The manager squinted at her, as if looking at a fool who wasn't smart enough: "Of course it's Yufeng's real owner!"

Jiang Fuyue was stunned.

The manager walked towards Xiaoliu nonchalantly, like a warrior ready to be killed. "I don't have the password, but I do have a life. Take it if you like."

Xiaoliu never thought that he could hardly protect himself, but he was still so ungrateful.

The typical case of living too long and feeling that life is too long!

"Heh..." Jiang Fuyue gave a very short and light laugh, "You are truly loyal and devoted. It's no wonder I named you 'Jinzhong'."

The manager was shocked, his eyes widened: "What did you say?!"

Jiang Fuyue curled her lips.

"How do you know?" The man suddenly became excited, and his scrutinizing and suspicious eyes fell on her face.

Jiang Fuyue asked back, "Why, is it strange to know your name?"

"Then you should call me Liu De, not Jinzhong!"

Over 20 years ago, he changed his name to "Liu De" and infiltrated Yufeng. Even Long Tian didn't know he had another identity! He also didn't know that Lou Sheng had saved two people on the same street!

One is Long Tian, ​​and the other is him—Liu Jinzhong!

Not only did Lou Sheng save him, he also gave him a new identity and name——

"There are many loyal subjects in the world who can be as loyal as Mulan. With unwavering loyalty and filial piety, their name will last forever. From now on, you will be known as Liu Jinzhong, a freshman majoring in hotel management at Binzhou University. Whether you can make a name for yourself in the future depends entirely on you."

That night, he was sent to Binzhou.

For many years afterwards, Jinzhong couldn't figure out why Long Tian was able to stay with him while he was expelled, even though they were both rescued homeless children?

Later he understood that Lou Sheng named him "Jinzhong" because he hoped that his loyalty could become his trump card at the critical moment!

Unfortunately, he realized it too late. After sneaking into Yufeng and gaining Long Tian's trust, he found out that Lou Sheng had disappeared for many years and there was no news of him.

"What's your relationship with Lou Sheng?" Liu Jinzhong's sharp eyes swept across the overly young girl in front of him.

Today's update is finished, I'm here to ask for a monthly ticket, ding ding dong, knock on my rice bowl~
