Chapter 54 The Past Is Like Smoke

There are quite a lot of people at the small bamboo skewer barbecue stall. It has only just passed March, and the weather is getting hotter. It smells like warm spring. In a few days, the spring will surely be warm and the flowers will bloom. The days are always moving forward slowly without knowing it. When I looked back, it was ten thousand years.

Did Xu Lin really come to drink and talk nonsense, or did he want to get some things out of the Shudu Group? Zhao Chuxi didn't care anymore. If he had wine and meat, he would drink and eat meat. Even if he wanted to fight Xu Lin, he had to Weigh yourself.

Han Sanqiang, who used to be able to talk, laugh and tell nasty jokes in the past, was completely dumb today, and he didn't dare to fart in front of Xu Lin. Seeing the shocking scars, Han Sanqiang shut his mouth sensibly, not to mention that Zhao Chuxi and Xu Lin talked about topics that he couldn't get into. He glanced at Xu Lin sensually, without much hostility.

"Brother Xu, there is something I don't know whether I should ask or not. Although I don't ask if I shouldn't ask, sometimes curiosity can really kill people." After drinking for three rounds, Zhao Chuxi couldn't help but courageously said, talking with people is natural It's a rule not to expose someone's shortcomings, but after meeting Xu Lin twice, Zhao Chuxi really wanted to know who could draw a scar on Xu Lin's face, so that the originally kind face turned into a hideous one. The traces left on Xu Lin's face made this man very attractive. A spontaneous sense of vicissitudes is the killer of young women and girls. It is definitely not something that Zhao Chuxi can have, nor can he deliberately pretend it.

Xu Lin took a sip of beer, stared at Zhao Chuxi and snorted coldly, "You know that curiosity killed the cat, but you still have to ask. Are you afraid that I will become angry from embarrassment?" beat me"

"Anyway, you will answer, that's the purpose." Chatting with Xu Lin made Zhao Chuxi very tired. This person is too smart, and he knows when to be smart and when to pretend to be stupid. compared to.

Xu Lin pretended to be deep in thought, sighed bitterly and shook his head. It seemed that the story inside was very complicated. After drinking the wine in the glass, he raised his head and said, "Believe it or not, when I was less than 30 years old, I was already worth more than a billion yuan. ?”

billion?

Hearing these words, Zhao Chuxi sprayed all the wine he had just drank on Han Sanqiang's body, and stared at Xu Lin in disbelief. He couldn't imagine what a billion was. To him, one hundred thousand and one million were already It's the limit, the man in front of me was once worth a billion dollars, true or false?

Han Sanqiang was also startled, holding the barbecue with his mouth wide open, dumbfounded, but Er Fatty remained motionless, maybe he didn't know what the concept was?

"One billion!" Zhao Chuxi was amazed with a demented expression.

Zhao Chuxi and Han Sanqiang's reaction was as expected, Xu Lin expected it. It's hard for anyone to believe that this middle-aged man who now eats barbecue and drinks beer at a food stall and has a shocking scar on his face was once worth a billion?It was so unbelievable that most people would think that he drank too much and bragged and joked. Even if he admitted that he had a story, they probably believed that he was a gangster who had given up his life.

"Don't believe me?" Xu Lin laughed at himself.

Zhao Chuxi quickly shook his head and replied, "I believe, I believe, I believe, brother Xu's ability, I really believe it."

"If you don't believe it, it's the truth. People don't believe it. If it's true or not, you should just brag. When you were rich, you enjoyed everything. You bought private jets and yachts, lived in a luxury house and drove a sports car, and then your family fell into poverty. I was framed and plotted, I almost lost my life, I owed a debt, because of a woman, I left this scar, I got out of that circle, wandered all over China, dumped coal in Yulin and Ordos, and gambled with others I have lived in Mingpan, gambled on stones and sold jade in Yunnan, and tossed wood in Fujian. There are mahogany, red sandalwood, agarwood, huanghuali, and real estate speculation with Wenzhou. I have done everything in the past year, except for murder, arson, and drug trafficking. It’s unbelievable to say it, just listen to the food and drink.” Xu Lin smiled bitterly, his eyes were full of vicissitudes, it seemed that he hadn’t recalled these past events for a long time, so he should remind himself Remembering the humiliation of the past, the higher he stood, the worse he fell. He had experienced this gap physically and mentally.

The past is like smoke, it is better not to mention it...

It is impossible for the old and calm Xu Lin to be so rash and impetuous. Originally, Zhao Chuxi trusted Xu Lin's words three to seven, but when Xu Lin said these words, he became seven to three doubts.If it was the first time they met and they didn't know Xu Lin well, Zhao Chuxi wouldn't believe what he said to death, but Zhao Chuxi had heard this man's high-spirited speech before, and his vision was far from being comparable to his own.

"You like that woman?" Zhao Chuxi didn't want to worry about other issues, but was more concerned about this scar.

Xu Lin took the cigarette case from the table, lit a cigarette, and said with a smile, "I used to like it, to be honest, it's love, but now I don't feel much. To save her, this scar was left on her face. Ironically, later Her husband is the man who left me with the scar, do you think I should hate her now, hating her means that I still love her, only by letting go can I let go of everything"

"It's bloody," Zhao Chuxi scolded. In a world with women, there is no shortage of grudges.

Xu Lin didn't comment or disagree, this story is bloody enough, and being able to tell it shows that he has already taken it as a matter of course.

"That man has a great background?" Zhao Chuxi asked curiously.

Xu Lin nodded lightly and said, "You can be regarded as a red boy. His path is relatively wild and his contacts are relatively wide. It is an honor to be his opponent."

"You don't want revenge?"

Xu Lin laughed loudly and said, "I'm not a saint. How could I not want to take revenge? It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge, but it's also a night for a villain to take revenge. No matter whether you are a gentleman or a villain, you will take revenge."

"You have to eat food bite by bite, and you have to do things one by one. If you really want to be able to take revenge, I have already reported it. Now I am very different from him. It is not an exaggeration to say that I am a bereaved dog. What I owed back then It's a big debt, and it's almost repaid now, I hope it can make a comeback," Xu Lin said with a wry smile.

Zhao Chuxi picked up his wine glass, respected Xu Lin and said, "Brother Xu, I firmly believe that you will make a comeback."

Han Sanqiang quickly picked up his wine glass, followed by Er Fatty and Han Xiao, and they clinked glasses with laughter.This time, Zhao Chuxi learned from Xu Lin that unyielding and forbearance are just the stories inside, after all, they are too far away from him. He is just a young man with a little ambition.

It was fate that Zhao Chuxi and Xu Lin could meet each other.If Zhao Chuxi didn't follow Susilo, if the two companies didn't cooperate, Xu Lin might just be a passer-by in Zhao Chuxi's life, and the two of them couldn't have a drink and talk here now, life is so interesting.

As for why Xu Lin cared so much about Zhao Chuxi, maybe it was because he saw some shadows of himself in Zhao Chuxi and felt sorry for each other.

But Zhao Chuxi's life will naturally not be as violent as his life, at least it seems now...

"Qixi, how are you and Susilo? Has your relationship improved?" Xu Lin finished talking to himself, and then began to make fun of Zhao Chuxi.

Zhao Chuxi replied angrily, "Go one step further, I'm sure Xu Shaoqing will throw his body into the wilderness the next day. Don't talk about it, drink and drink, I asked for leave to drink with you, a rare opportunity"

"What shift do you work at night, 24-hour bodyguard?" Xu Lin joked.

Zhao Chuxi shook his head and said, "I used to work in a bathing center on Xiying Road. During this time, Susilo let me learn to drive. I haven't officially joined the company yet. It's fine. I haven't quit my job there yet. Can I earn a penny more? , when this side starts, the other side will quit.”

"Bath center, what are you doing?" Xu Lin asked with great interest, his eyes slightly lewd.

Zhao Chuxi laughed and said, "Brother Xu, can we stop thinking about it, I'm not a pimp, I'm just the security captain there, but there is a club in that place, if you want to vent your anger, I'll take you there and call [-]% off”

For Zhao Chuxi to have such a job, Xu Lin was more or less surprised, and laughed and scolded, "I really want to vent my anger, I have a lover"

Zhao Chuxi said with a playful smile, "Is it pretty?"

Xu Lin remained silent, the old monk settled down...

After drinking a case of beer, Xu Lin got up and planned to leave. In the evening, the big boss had a social gathering, and they were all at the level of director and division chief, which involved the next project.

Zhao Chuxi paid the bill very consciously, but Xu Lin didn't refuse, and planned to take a taxi there by himself.Han Sanqiang stopped a taxi just as they were about to separate.

An aunt who was often with the old lady in the Huancheng Park outside Hepingmen ran to a group of people out of breath, and shouted with a heavy face, "Qi, old lady... old lady..."

"Aunt Zhang, what's wrong with grandma?" Zhao Chuxi said in shock.

"The old lady passed out"

Just after Aunt Zhang finished speaking, the smile on Er Fatty's face was gone, and his whole person was extremely gloomy...
