As I remember, Tong Zhenghao and Tao Ben are the two Hunha generals beside Gu Anning. These two always claim to be Gu Anning's protectors. I stood up angrily, "Why are you?"

I stopped when I was about to sit down, raised my head, and looked at the two of them in surprise, "Gentlemen?"

The atmosphere was tense for a while, the other party stared at me with vigilance and defense on his face, and Tao Ben, who had a more fiery personality, even asked me aloud, "What the hell are you planning?"

I looked back at him innocently.

A trace of puzzlement crossed Gu Anning's face. He didn't understand why Tong Zhenghao and Tao Ben suddenly got angry at me. He looked at me in confusion, then at the two people around him, and then pulled Tao Ben by his side. sleeve, but the other party ignored him and took a step forward instead.

Both Tong Zhenghao and Tao Ben are from the north. They are tall and muscular, and they feel threatening when they stand up. In addition, their eyes are fierce and their expressions are ferocious. When they face me together, they look like attackers. The appearance, the waiter noticed this and came over to ask us what's wrong.

In this case, only Chris vaguely guessed something inside.

"It's nothing, there was a misunderstanding." He took a step forward to explain to the waiter, and handed him a $20 tip. "When we meet friends, there is a little conflict. I will persuade them to make up."

The waiter looked in our direction suspiciously, "Sir, if you have anything to do, please call me?" He walked up to me worriedly and said that the waiter at the best restaurant in Boston must have good eyesight, Recognize Max.The high-end suit customized by Valtteri, coupled with my own elegant and detail-oriented gentleman's style, compared with the two vicious men on the opposite side, he was a little worried about my life safety.

Chris glanced at me lightly.

The meaning of this glance is very clear, reminding me to restrain myself and not cause trouble.Chris didn't want me to start a dispute in public. After all, public conflicts in the United States will go to court. Since my lawyer is an expert in this area, I smiled and asked, "Gentlemen, what's wrong? This is the first time we've met."

Tao Ben's expression froze, "Meeting you for the first time?"

"What's wrong?" I asked back.

An unbelievable expression appeared on Tao Ben's face. He opened his mouth to say something, but was stopped by Tong Zhenghao. Tong Zhenghao frowned and repeated my name, "So you are William Field."

"It's me," I said.

The two looked at each other, and finally stretched out their hands reluctantly as if they wanted to force themselves to suppress their temper.I'm not surprised, Bennett must have warned them before they came, don't provoke me anyway, after all, I'm their only umbrella now.

"My name is Tong Zhenghao, please call me Hawke."

"Tao Ben, the English name is ben."

"Welcome, both of you." I slightly raised the corners of my mouth and held their hands respectively. Although the atmosphere around me was not good, it was unexpectedly quiet.Tong Zhenghao and Tao Ben are quite knowledgeable about current affairs, and they didn't turn their faces on the spot to show me, but I can almost imagine how turbulent their hearts are at the moment. I think they were still arrogant in front of me, and no one looked down on them. They were full of anger and suspicion, but they dared not show it at all, because I am the boss here.

Of course, I am not saying that they will always be at a disadvantage, but at least for now, they are just two down-and-out phoenixes, without the capital to show off their beautiful feathers in the past.

Now they must want to ask who I am, why I appear here, what is the relationship with Bennett, and whether I am really the William Field who has hundreds of millions of assets in two years and has flourishing industries everywhere.But I will not answer these questions, guessing in anxiety is the best answer.It's like peeling off their faces and showing them naked in front of everyone. I think their faces must be burning and painful at the moment.

"Welcome to Boston, I hope that everything I have prepared for you will satisfy you." I winked mischievously at Gu Anning. "You know that Antonio and I are old friends in New York, and I hope that he and you will have as much fun here as at home."

Gu Anning finally came back to his senses at this time, he smiled at me, "Oh, yes. I have already looked at the house, William, thank you for your help, you are always like this..." He paused and used a I am very thankful to describe it, "...Caring. I really don't know how to thank you." Then Gu Anning turned his gaze to my side, with a curious expression on his face, "I don't know who these two are?"

"These are two friends of mine, Christian Jonathan and Brandon Winston, who are also my attorney and deputy," I introduced him.

Chris immediately put on a smiley face, he's always been a mild-tempered guy, and he's able to smile in such a situation, and Bran gave me a glare, and if he couldn't see what was going on he would Fool.But I looked away, pretending not to see his warning gaze.

Brandon turned his head and nodded to Gu Anning. "Hello, Antonio."

"Hello." Gu Anning said.

After the two parties got to know each other, the dinner proceeded in such a weird atmosphere. During the whole process, I was probably the only one who was in the happiest mood. I kept talking to Gu Anning. We chatted for a while, and opened another bottle of red wine. Then the waiter was recruited to choose our menu. On my recommendation, Gu Anning chose the same main meal as me.

"You should try this steak." I said to Gu Anning, "The chef here is good at combining the advantages of French and Italian cuisine. His steak is marinated with a special sauce, and he chooses it from the northern slaughterhouse that day. Airfreight fresh beef in a sauce seasoned with herbs and black pepper is sure to please your tongue."

"Is this sauce special?"

"Extremely special and delicious, fresh sheep's cream I guess, don't know where to get it, but thanks gourmand."

……

After the meal, the bathroom.

I was whistling and straightening my collar in the mirror when the door opened and Chris walked in and he went into the toilet to run the water and after a few seconds Brandon came in too.

"Hey guys." I turned to greet them with a smile on my face, "Did you see that? Their super stupid faces, I can't think of anyone with that expression. Sure enough, the meaning of life is that The moment of showing off in front of the sworn enemy."

"Childish." Brandon didn't even look at me.

"It's really naive." Chris said the same.

What they said didn't affect me in the slightest, and I was in a good mood. "I'm only 25 years old." I retorted triumphantly, "I have enough reasons to be naive to my enemies. If this kind of thing must also be mature, then I'm an old monster."

Brandon ignored me, he went to the trash can, threw away the towel to wipe his hands, and then strode out, he looked a little unhappy, I stared at his back in confusion for two seconds, then looked back at Ke Reese, "Chris, why is he mad?"

Christian looked at me meaningfully, "I don't know, William."

I paused, "Could it be that Antonio and I talked too long tonight?"

Chris still said in the same tone, "I don't know, William."

Brandon was rarely angry, but when he was angry, he was as sharp as a knife, and he didn't say a word to me all night, just chatted with Chris, which made me a little distracted, I turned my attention to him from time to time, and soon Gu Anning noticed that I was absent-minded, "What's wrong with William."

"Um, no." I said, at this moment we had finished the main meal and were enjoying dessert, I changed the subject, "I found that your friends don't talk much, are you too reserved?"

Gu Anning turned to look at them, "They may not be so used to speaking English, of course they may be too tired, you know we have been on the plane for a long time."

I looked at Tong Zhenghao and Tao Ben. They first made slight eye contact with me, but then turned their eyes away.They hardly spoke that night, including to Gu Anning.I can understand their thoughts very well, they don't want Gu Anning to know that he is being stalked by me, I smiled, "It's my fault, maybe we should end this party earlier and let you have a good rest."

After dinner, I sent Gu Anning and others away. After I signed the bill in the restaurant, there were only two people left at the door, Brandon and Chris, and our car was also parked at the door.Chris and I drove here separately. Because Brandon lives close to the company, he has always walked to work. He came to the restaurant tonight to take my ride. I planned to send him home the same way as when I came. But when he saw me, he turned around and left.

"Brandon." I stopped him. "What's the matter with you today?"

He put his hands in his pockets, "I'm fine, boss, I want to go back to feed my dog ​​now, can you move away?"

"Then I'll take you home." I said.

"Dr. Jonathan will take me back, I made an agreement with him."

I gave Chris a look and he shrugged and gestured goodbye and I looked back, "Now Chris is gone, how about you?"

Brandon took one look at me and followed me into the car without saying a word. He didn't say a word to me while I was driving him home. This silence didn't last until we arrived at Brandon's door. , He wanted to open the door and go out, but I locked the car door first.

"Now you can tell me why I'm angry."

"I'm not angry."

"Of course you have." I pushed my hair back anxiously, "Listen Brandon, I hope there is no barrier between us, understand? You are my... my secretary, we shouldn't have any conflicts .”

He made a gesture of surrender, "Well, you really want to know?"

"Yes, tell me!"

"Today's dinner, you acted like a child." Brandon looked at me disappointedly, "I thought you really came to catch up with your friends, but you wasted the whole night just to humiliate me. Two children. Mr. Field, I have to say that your behavior is too out of date."

"Humiliation? You don't even know what they did to me before." I said angrily.

"As you said, that was before," Brandon said. "But are you still on the same level as them now?" He asked me back, "They are just young people who came to seek refuge from abroad, and you are the master here. You have money and power, so you don't need to be so aggressive!"

I suddenly became unhappy, and said coldly, "I don't think I'm aggressive."

"You are." Brandon said, he looked at me for a long time, and suddenly heaved a small sigh, "William, you are no longer who you used to be, what makes you still immersed in the past?"

I found myself speechless.
