Shi Jin was not as thick-skinned as Lian Jun, who could continue to show affection despite Lu Shan's anger. He suppressed his embarrassment, said a few words to comfort Lu Shan, then went to the kitchen to make some hot drinks for Lu Shan and Lian Jun, then went back to his room to change his clothes and went to the bathroom to wash up.
"Your luck is so good that it makes people jealous. How could Shi Jin, such a good-looking, capable and well-connected guy, fall for a bad guy like you?" Lu Shan stirred the hot milk tea that Shi Jin brought over with a spoon, scooped out the pearl fruit inside and took a look, with a hint of nostalgia in her eyes, "Pearl milk tea, I haven't had it for many years. Does Shi Jin treat me like a girl... Girl, I almost forgot what I was doing when I was in my teens, drinking with others? Fighting? Being beaten by my parents? Time flies..."
Lian Jun picked up the hot milk in front of him and brought it to his lips, took a sip, and didn't say anything.
Lu Shan came back to her senses and suddenly came to him again. She tilted her head to look at the contents of his cup, and then laughed mercilessly: "Milk? Hahaha, you are so old, and you still drink milk. Does Shi Jin treat you as a child?"
"Isn't it bad?" Lian Jun asked back, looking up at her, "Isn't it good to be spoiled like a girl and a child?"
Lu Shan stopped laughing, looked at him, and almost roughly scooped a spoonful of pearl fruit into her mouth, chewing and mumbling: "Good, very good! You are so lucky that I want to beat you up. Okay, I won't talk nonsense with you anymore. What are you going to do about this matter? The official has made such a big fuss to stand up for Mie this time. I don't need to remind you of the deep meaning."
"What's the deep meaning?" Shi Jin came closer with the cooked noodles, and frowned after hearing this.
Lu Shan was a little surprised that she didn't notice Shi Jin's movement. She quickly recovered her calmness, stood up and went to look at the small pot in his hand, and asked: "Did you cook the noodles? They smell so good." Shi Jin's
attention was diverted, and he shook his head and replied: "No, it was the kitchen auntie who cooked it. I woke them up when I was making drinks. They heard that there were guests, so they cooked these and asked me to wash up and bring them over. Aunt Lu, you should eat something to fill your stomach."
Hearing this, Lu Shan glanced at Lian Jun and deliberately said: "You are so considerate. I am almost starving. Lian Jun, this bastard, doesn't know how to be considerate of his elders at all."
"The noodles are a little hot, be careful when eating." Shi Jin ignored her complaint. He put the small pot and other things in place, helped her serve the noodles, put down the chopsticks, then looked at Lian Jun, continued the previous topic, and asked, "What's the deeper meaning behind it? What's wrong with the official?"
Lu Shan paused with her chopsticks in her hand and looked up at Lian Jun.
Lian Jun took a tissue and wiped the soup off Shi Jin's fingers, and replied: "The authorities are fine. Aunt Lu just talked about the authorities helping us deal with Wolf Spider. Everything has two sides. From an optimistic perspective, the authorities are standing up for us and letting other organizations know that going against Mie is going against the authorities. But on the other hand, the authorities' actions this time have directly put Mie on the opposite side of all violent organizations and completely isolated Mie."
Lu Shan raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect Lian Jun to be so frank with Shi Jin and tell him everything.
As if he noticed her surprise, Lian Jun suddenly glanced at her sideways, took Shi Jin's hand from his knees, put it on the table and held it.
What kind of look is that?
Lu Shan frowned, and her eyes followed his movements to the two people's clasped hands. She noticed the ring on Shi Jin's hand, and her expression cracked. She looked up at Lian Jun in disbelief, and pointed at the ring.
Lian Jun curled his lips and ignored her again.
Fuck! This bastard!
Lu Shan was furious, but her attitude became cautious. She looked at Shi Jin carefully again, redefined the relationship between him and Lian Jun in her heart, and then continued to concentrate on eating noodles, not listening to the conversation between Lian Jun and Shi Jin.
Shi Jin was used to being held by Lian Jun, and he didn't notice his movements at all, nor did he notice the eye contact between Lian Jun and Lu Shan. His attention was all on Lian Jun's words. He frowned and thought for a while, then said unhappily: "It seems that the authorities are really afraid that you will give up at the critical moment, and they want to tie you down by all means. They stand up for you and make enemies for you like this, and they are really skilled at operating it."
"Don't worry, the authorities are still on our side for the time being, and they dare not do too much." Lian Jun squeezed his hand soothingly. Seeing that it was getting late, he temporarily left him and Lu Shan, asked him to help entertain Lu Shan, and went back to his room to change clothes and wash up.
After Lian Jun left, only Lu Shan and Shi Jin were left on the balcony.
Shi Jin considerately poured Lu Shan another glass of water, fearing that she would be too sick of just drinking milk tea, and then casually asked her some homely questions, with a naturally gentle attitude and a relaxed and casual posture.
——He is a child that makes people unconsciously want to get close to him, and he feels a little different from the last time they met.
Lu Shan evaluated Shi Jin in her heart, wiped her mouth after filling her stomach, drank a sip of lukewarm milk tea, and casually asked: "There is a pot of noodles, but only one set of bowls and chopsticks, don't you want to eat?"
Shi Jin shook his head and replied: "I will eat with Lian Jun later. He needs to have regular meals and likes to be picky about food, so I have to accompany him."
Oh, this damn dog man. So this pot of noodles is all for her? Was it feeding pigs at that time?
Lu Shan began to regret asking this question, and immediately changed the subject, asking: "I heard that you were admitted to the police academy in college? You are very brave."
"It was Lian Jun who tolerated my willfulness." Shi Jin answered, implicitly praising Lian Jun.
Lu Shan scolded him for being cunning in her heart, but her expression was more relaxed. She leaned lazily on the back of the chair, feeling the morning sea breeze, and said: "Couples should tolerate each other. I feel relieved to see that you two get along well. If I fail this time..."
"Aunt Lu." Shi Jin interrupted her and said seriously, "Lian Jun will protect the wolf spider and you."
Lu Shan turned her head to look at him, and suddenly picked up the milk tea and drank it until the cup was empty, leaving only a layer of pearl fruit at the bottom of the cup. She put down the cup and said, "Shi Jin, don't treat Lian Jun as a god. He is not omnipotent. He also gets tired, makes mistakes, and wants to escape... I hope that in your eyes, he is just an ordinary person with a slightly special career." Shi
Jin understood a little bit why Lian Jun called Lu Shan Aunt Lu. With a smile on his face, he replied seriously, "Aunt Lu, I have never deified Lian Jun. I just believe in him. I believe that even if he is really just an ordinary person now, he will do his best to protect the only elder and family in his heart."
Family.
With a clang, the spoon that Lu Shan was using to scoop pearl fruit fell into the cup, hitting the wall of the cup and making a crisp knocking sound.
"...You are such a daredevil boy." After a long while, Lu Shan put down the cup, completely collapsed on the chair, closed her eyes, and murmured in a low voice, "There is no family affection in our business... I'm a little tired, I'll sleep for a while." After that, she fell asleep in a second. Shi
Jin was stunned. He didn't expect her to fall asleep directly on the chair. Just as he was about to get up and call her to sleep in the guest room, Lian Jun, who had returned to the balcony at some point, pressed his shoulders.
"Let her lean on him. She's too tired." Lian Jun said, then let go and covered Lu Shan with a blanket, his movements gentle. Shi Jin
looked at his back, slowly sat back in his chair, his eyes swept over Lu Shan's tired face, and he sighed slightly.
...
Lu Shan slept for a whole morning before waking up. After waking up, she washed up and had lunch, then immediately took Lian Jun to the study. Shi Jin didn't follow because he had to confirm the study plan with Mr. Feng and review the company management courses he had missed before.
The door of the study was closed all day, and Lu Shan's roar of collapse and angry roars could be heard from inside the door from time to time, as if Lian Jun had said something to make her angry.
"Don't be distracted, concentrate on the class." Mr. Feng on the other end of the video call coughed softly to remind Shi Jin to concentrate.
Shi Jin forced himself to retract his gaze, frowned and turned his attention back to the course.
Near midnight, Lu Shan and Lian Jun finally walked out of the study. Lu Shan changed her tired and pessimistic look when she came, and her face was full of expectation and fighting spirit. She patted Lian Jun's shoulder and said, "You are still very thoughtful. Then I will make arrangements first, and wait for my news."
Lian Jun nodded, and his eyes swept to Shi Jin who was sleeping with his eyes closed on the sofa in the living room. His eyes warmed up, and he called Gua Liu, asking Gua Liu to personally send Lu Shan out of the villa, and he approached the sofa.
...
Shi Jin was awakened by harassment. Someone was fanning the flames on him and trying to untie his belt. He was conscious, but he was too lazy to open his eyes. He fumbled and grabbed the other person's hand that was messing with his waist, saying, "Don't mess around. You got up early in the morning and didn't take a nap at noon. You don't get enough sleep. Don't do anything tonight. You must rest well."
Lian Jun looked up at him and saw that he was still lazily closing his eyes. He turned his wrist and held his hand, and continued to move his hand around his body. He leaned over and kissed his mouth, which was still ready to protest.
...
The biological clock trained by the military only lasted for one day before it was broken. Shi Jin slept until noon. After waking up, he sat on the bed and recalled what happened last night. He raised his hand to support his forehead with a headache and sighed deeply.
Beauty is indeed a temptation to depravity. This cannot go on. Uncle Long said that we can only do it once a week.
...
Before Shi Jin could find a chance to persuade Lian Jun to take care of his body and exercise moderation, the first wave of official conflicts against Wolf Spider began without warning.
At first, Wolf Spider's peripheral businesses distributed in various districts of Province G were suddenly investigated, followed by the sudden increase in the inspection of the import and export of goods in major ports of Province G, and a large number of Wolf Spider's goods were seized. Finally, the authorities made a big move and suddenly shifted their position. Under the pretext of strengthening business cooperation with Formosa, they sent people into Formosa and began to purposefully harass Wolf Spider’s business in Formosa, trying to find out Wolf Spider’s specific business chain.
This wave of official harassment against Wolf Spider can be said to be fast, accurate and ruthless, directly hitting Wolf Spider’s most important business key points in Province G. If it weren’t for the fact that Formosa had some special political characteristics, the authorities could not openly interfere in various matters in Formosa, and Wolf Spider’s business chain in Formosa might have been found out by now.
"Too cruel." Gua Er, who came to report the news, flipped through the various materials in his hands during the break and shook his head, "Jun Shao is really too cruel."
Shi Jin, who was being tortured by Mr. Feng's homework, was stunned when he heard this and asked curiously, "Why is Jun Shao too cruel? Didn't the undercover agent we are responsible for not start to act yet?"
"Of course Young Master Jun is too cruel. The authorities were able to target Wolf Spider so directly, but it was all thanks to the information provided by Young Master Jun's 'kindness'. If they were left to do it themselves, who knows what kind of mess the business here in Province G would become." Gua Er explained, then touched his head lovingly and said, "Don't worry about these things, kid. Be good and do your homework." Shi Jin's
face darkened when he heard this, and he shook off his hand. Looking at the homework in front of him, he was filled with despair - this trip to Province G was not at all what he had imagined, and he also wanted to help Lian Jun.
Gua Er saw that he was depressed, so he stopped teasing him and comforted him, "Don't think too much. Young Master Jun didn't let you go out for your own good. Now the leaders of Snake Fang, Meridian Gate, and Qianye have all gathered in Province G. You have a special status and it is not appropriate for you to go to the front line."
Shi Jin understood this truth, but he felt that he was a little useless. Thinking of how everyone was busy these days, but in a relaxed mood, he guessed that things should be going smoothly. He shook his head and stopped thinking too much. He picked up the pen and continued to do his homework.
...
Time passed quickly. A week later, the official harassment of Wolf Spider began to approach the inner circle business. At the same time, the dark line buried by Lian Jun finally began to act.
On a seemingly ordinary night, Wolf Spider's several secret warehouses in Province G were suddenly broken into, and the flames lit up half of the sky.
"Will this be too obvious?" Shi Jin was a little worried as he flipped through the news on his tablet about "all the warehouses of a certain company suddenly caught fire."
Lian Jun flipped through the documents and said casually: "If we don't make it more obvious, how can the officials understand how important you are to me, and to what extent can I lose my mind for you? These are all necessary. We have to show our attitude, and the officials will listen to what we say." Shi Jin
paused, looked sideways at him flipping through the documents seriously, and couldn't help but rush over to hug him and kiss him hard - the words just now were sweet talk, definitely!
Lian Jun was stunned by the kiss, and turned to look at him. Seeing that he was smiling, he couldn't help but smile and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Shi Jin replied, and then lowered his head and kissed him again, and said happily, "I just suddenly wanted to kiss you."
Lian Jun raised his eyebrows, pursed his lips that were kissed by him, and simply stretched out his hand to hook him down, raised his head and kissed him again.
...
The action to crack down on Wolf Spider continued. After Mie joined, Wolf Spider's business in Province G quickly became chaotic. Wolf Spider tried to fight back and tried to talk to the authorities, but none of them achieved effective results.
Half a month later, Wolf Spider's outer circle business in G Province was completely abolished, the inner circle was in danger, and the big business chain was also affected. However, due to the special nature of the treasure island, Wolf Spider's most important business chain was never dug out. What's worse, Wolf Spider began to cut off its tail to survive. It suddenly abandoned all the open businesses and transferred all resources to the dark side, hiding.
At the same time, because of Wolf Spider's big "cutting off its tail", the overall economy of G Province was affected and began to be frequently turbulent.
This is not what the official wants to see, and a protracted war is not in their plan. In a hurry, they sent someone to contact Lian Jun to discuss countermeasures with him.
At the villa, Lian Jun hung up the official call, his tense expression completely relaxed, and leaned back in the wheelchair.
Shi Jin immediately came over upon seeing this and asked carefully, "Is it about to start?"
Lian Jun looked at him, reached out and touched his face, held him in his arms, and said, "Well, let's start." Whether Wolf Spider can get out of the current predicament depends on this conversation with the officials.
...
The person sent by the officials to discuss with Lian Jun was none other than Zhang Zhuoyuan, the director of the Maintenance Office who was in charge of the annual April Daoshang meeting. Shi Jin happened to have no classes on the day of the conversation, so he stayed in the study and listened to the whole process.
Zhang Zhuoyuan had a serious expression on his face. As soon as he sat down, he immediately said, "Mr. Lian, we are already old acquaintances, so I won't beat around the bush with you. The wolf spider is harder to fight than we expected. It is slippery and will shrink as soon as we hit it, and it can shrink without a trace, without exposing any of its core business. It is useless to rely solely on official attacks on its superficial business. It will shrink for a while, and when the storm is over, it can reopen as many of the currently closed businesses as it wants in other places. This is simply a temporary solution, not a fundamental solution. I..."
"Director Zhang," Lian Jun interrupted him and said coldly, "I have provided all the information that should be provided, and I have done all the things that should be done. Now the wolf spider has time to hide, but I don't have time to waste with it. The cooperation I agreed to is to assist you in cleaning up the wolf spider, not for me to lose everything here and fight to the death with the wolf spider. To put it more bluntly, the decision to clean up the wolf spider was made by you on your own without any prior notice. You asked for my opinion before, I have no obligation to accompany you to the end of this matter. And I have said it before, if Wolf Spider is so easy to be broken up, why should we be afraid of it for so many years? Wolf Spider is a big organization, it is a long-standing brand, not the waste that we supported Jiuying. "
Zhang Zhuoyuan's face darkened by his words, and said: "Mr. Lian, why do you want to touch Wolf Spider, you and I know it in our hearts, I thought you were sincere in cooperating with us."
"If I were not sincere, why would I come to this mess?" Lian Jun's expression turned sarcastic, and he said, "Director Zhang, I'm not a particularly unkind person. I have accepted the official's favor this time. I am indeed very happy to have the opportunity to touch Wolf Spider, but I don't want you to treat me as a fool. G Province's economic lifeline is so important. You want to snatch it back from Wolf Spider. I understand very well, and I can cooperate with you, but if you insist on saying some false words that all this is for me, then don't blame me for losing face. This time, are you standing up for me in fighting Wolf Spider, or are you using the excuse of standing up for me to trick me into working for you, you know it in your hearts."
Zhang Zhuoyuan's emotional card was pulled back to his face before he played it. His face turned red and white, and he was speechless for a while.
The initiative of the conversation quickly shifted to Lian Jun. Shi Jin was amazed by the fierce punches he threw at Lian Jun. He was shocked by Lian Jun's rare sharp and violent aura. He hid in the corner and looked at Lian Jun's profile, feeling a little itchy in his heart.
Lian Jun was so handsome!
"Director, it's better to stop immediately when it's time to stop." Lian Jun suddenly softened his tone, personally poured a cup of hot tea for Zhang Zhuoyuan and pushed it over, saying, "I know your intentions. If you insist on letting me fight Wolf Spider, then I can only hold my nose and fight. After all, whether the people under my command can live a stable life in the future depends on your attitude in the future."
Lian Jun took the initiative to hand over the ladder, and Zhang Zhuoyuan immediately followed him down. After thanking him, he took a sip of the tea and said in a soft tone: "I'm sorry, I was too impatient just now and didn't consider your position... So what do you mean by that? Is Wolf Spider really untouchable?"
"It's not that Wolf Spider can't be touched, it's that the balance of the underworld can't be touched." Lian Jun returned to his usual attitude, dipped his fingers in some tea, and drew four circles on the table. "Now in the underworld, in addition to Mie, there are four other organizations: Wumen, Wolf Spider, Qianye, and Snake Fang. Wumen, Qianye, and Snake Fang have each experienced a turmoil, each with its own weaknesses, and do not need too much defense. Only Wolf Spider has been developing steadily over the years, with a solid foundation, and is very difficult to deal with. This time you proposed to fight Wolf Spider, and I didn't put too much of a problem on it, because I wanted to weaken Wolf Spider's strength a little, so that it would be on par with the other three organizations and restrain each other. So far, this goal has been achieved. None of these four organizations can shake each other now, and the balance of the underworld should be maintained for a while."
Zhang Zhuoyuan looked at the four circles on the table and asked, "Do you need this balance?"
"It's not me who needs it, it's you who need it." Lian Jun drew a medium circle about the size of two small circles outside the four small circles and nodded gently, "This is Mie. The size of the circle represents the strength of the organization. If I fight Wolf Spider now, even with your help, I will definitely suffer a great loss in the end. By then, Wolf Spider will disappear and Mie will fall from the altar. Given the current situation, how do you think the few remaining unscathed organizations will deal with Mie?"
Zhang Zhuoyuan was shocked when he heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he shook his head and said, "They will definitely..."
"They will unite to destroy me." Lian Jun answered coldly, drew out the small circle belonging to the wolf spider, merged the other three small circles into one, and shrunk the circle representing destruction. Then he sat up straight and said, "Three against one, destruction is a death sentence. When destruction is gone, what awaits you is a three-in-one monster. Director Zhang, let me remind you that Wumen, Qianye, and Sheya are different from destruction. These three companies each have their own They are all vassals of countless organizations. Without suppression, they will expand in a blink of an eye. By then, all our efforts over the years will be in vain, and the situation will return to the starting point. The demons on the road will be in chaos and you will be helpless. "
The air conditioning in the room has been turned on, but Zhang Zhuoyuan is already sweating profusely. He picked up the teacup and drank the tea in one breath. Looking at the circles on the table that gradually disappeared, his mind was in a mess.
