After Waking up Beside the Villain

There was a moment of silence in the arena.

Chu Yunsheng slanted forward, and Li Ershao, who was wearing a military uniform and looked like a soldier, raised his eyelids, suddenly opened his mouth, and sighed with a smile: "Hey, as soon as Mr. Yu said this, those who spread the rumors started talking about it in the newspapers. Those who don’t know what’s on their minds, turn black and white at will, and dirty people’s innocence—gutter bugs, I’m afraid they won’t be able to sleep well again.”

"Hey, what's the matter, Mr. Du, you're really old and your hands are shaking? You can't hold this bowl of tea steadily..."

When these words fell, Du Tianming hadn't reacted yet, but the faces of the dozen or so people he brought all turned pale and drew their guns.

"How dare you insult Mr. Du!"

Li Ershao's face remained unchanged, and he laughed loudly: "Look, there are people in their forties and fifties, and it's too old to listen to you? Now we're going to shoot!"

There was also a man dressed as a scribe booing beside him, clapping his hands and laughing: "I heard that there are bandit dens in the northwest, and they like to fire guns to celebrate every year and festival, and even see blood, so they go all out to kill people. But we in Haicheng don't like these things. , This is Mr. Yu's residence, everyone, don't go to the wrong place or do the wrong thing. Mr. Du, don't be arrogant."

Du Tianming's eyes turned cold, and he cursed Yu Jingzhi's two unscrupulous spammers in his heart for daring to ridicule himself in public. If he hadn't come to the Hongmen banquet himself, he would have directly shot them.

Covering his sinister expression without any trace, Du Tianming raised his hand.

"Okay, it's a mess."

He reprimanded lightly, motioned his subordinates to put away their guns, and then sighed helplessly at Yu Jingzhi: "Brother Yu, it's just a joke or two, you and I don't want to take it seriously. It's just...it's fine if the child is ignorant, Brother Yu, you have to take good care of your subordinates, today is your elder brother and me, but if someone else comes, you will be really angry."

Holding tea, Yu Jingzhi smiled, and said slowly: "Li Qi and He Xian are both in their [-]s, but they are not children, so I can't care about it."

Du Tianming's expression froze slightly.

I passed the steps to others, but I didn't expect that they would not give me face at all.

However, Du Tianming has not been the second child in Haicheng for a day or two, and he has practiced the skill of swallowing his anger. Although he hates in his heart, he doesn't care about it on his face. It's still normal. Not aggrieved.

Chu Yunsheng watched from a few seats away, and was a little puzzled as to what this President Du of the Tianming Society was here for. He brought a foreigner, and the foreigner didn't care about his business. , want to fight aggressively, and the words are not sharp, but they can't argue, is this purely to get angry?

There were many disputes between the gangs, and blood spattered three feet at every turn. The few words of the quarrel just now were not painful, but Yu Jingzhi casually ignored Du Tianming's face, but changed the subject and said : "I heard that a few days ago, brother Du had some troubles at the No. [-] pier in Zhabei?"

As soon as these words come out, it can be regarded as entering the topic of today.

Du Tianming glanced at the foreigner Pete in front of him from the corner of his eye, and said with a relaxed smile, "Oh, it's a small matter. Brother Yu, isn't he all on the north side, and he still cares about this?"

"How can I not care about Haicheng?" Yu Jingzhi smiled, "Speaking of the north, this time I go back to Peiping, and the chamber of commerce has ordered a large batch of goods from me, which will be transported by water, but It just so happens that I don't have a free dock or port under my hand."

Du Tianming came back, sneered in his heart, but still pretended not to understand on the face, and said generously: "It's all trivial, since you have opened your mouth, brother Yu, it doesn't matter if I lend you this pier for two days."

Yu Jingzhi shook his head and said: "This order has been divided into many batches, and it can't be shipped out in three or two days, but it's almost the same in three or two days."

What a lion!

Du Tianming was about to laugh angrily. If he tried to talk about it, he would borrow his biggest pier for three or two years?If you really borrowed it in the past three or two years, I'm afraid you won't repay it once you borrow it.

"Brother Yu, you don't have any room for business?" Du Tianming said with a pun.

Yu Jingzhi looked at Du Tianming, and laughed in a low voice: "Brother Du, do you like to take the train when you travel far away?"

The attack on the train station only lasted one night, and although no one was left alive, both parties were well aware of the incident.

When Yu Jingzhi spoke, his expression was still a faint smile, but there was a deep chill and warning hidden in his tone.Du Tianming has no doubt that if he refuses the compensation today, he will have no peace in the next few days and will be hunted down by Yu Jingzhi's gang.

It was definitely not that he was afraid of Yu Jingzhi, but that now was not the time.

Du Tianming's complexion completely sank, and he no longer tried to hide it.

He didn't answer Yu Jingzhi's question, and Yu Jingzhi didn't continue to ask. There was a moment of silence between the two of them, and the stage was tidied up and the scene started again.

After the opera off the stage is over, you can concentrate on listening to the opera on stage.

Dusk passed, night fell.

The melodious and lively tunes and the babbling libretto made the courtyard cheerful again.

Mr. Pete in the front and Boss Meng in the back seat were very supportive and applauded one after another.Strings of festive lanterns were lit up in various colors, and firecrackers were set off in someone's courtyard not far away, which was reflected in the sky, creating a magnificent Lantern Festival scene of fiery trees and silver flowers.

This play is sung until the middle of the night on the moon, and then it is considered to be over.

Du Tianming came by car, and then went back to the concession by car.

When the car passed by the bustling light market on the street in Haicheng County, the curious and cheerful Mr. Pete suddenly said to Du Tianming, "Is that the person Mr. Du wants to kill?"

Apart from Du Qi who was driving, and Du Tianming and Pete in the back seat, there was no other person in the car, but Du Tianming knew what Pete meant.

"Yes."

He said: "I made Mr. Pete laugh today."

Pete spoke fluent Chinese with a strong accent, and said, "It's not easy for Mr. Du to control many forces in Haicheng. It looks a bit like the earth emperor that Mr. Du said. But Mr. Du, You have to know that many people in the concession are selling face to him, we don't care about the following things."

Du Tianming smiled slightly: "Mr. Pete said that the status of the concession is detached, and the affairs below are ignored. But Mr. Pete, you just came to Haicheng not long ago, so you don't know anything. Yu Jingzhi's ability is not The concession can stop it. His ambition is to swallow the sky."

Pete said again: "You said that he went north some time ago and lost his whereabouts again?"

"Yes." Du Tianming replied.

The car slowly drove into the concession area and came to a heavily guarded western-style building. Pete finally said, "Mr. Du invited me to listen to a very good play today. I like it very much. Tomorrow my assistant will contact Tianminghui."

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Pete. Good night, Mr. Pete." Du Tianming said with joy, watching Pete's figure disappear at the gate of the mansion, and then asked Du Qi to start the car again and go home.

As the car drove out of this area, the smile on Du Tianming's face instantly turned cold.

Du Qi in front was paying attention to Du Tianming's expression while driving, and lowered his brows coldly when he saw this, and said, "Godfather, is this foreigner reliable?"

Du Tianming closed his eyes and leaned on the back seat, snorted: "If it's reliable, we have to get on this ship. Don't look at Pete's easy-talking appearance, but he is actually treacherous. He said that he was sitting on the boat a few days ago The boat has just arrived in Haicheng, and the Haicheng language is more fluent than your godfather and me. Zhao Wu checked and found that this foreigner came from the northeast."

"Ask me if I want to kill Yu Jingzhi, I think they want to kill."

Du Qi said: "Then godfather, you don't want to kill him?"

Du Tianming said: "Why don't you want to? I think you are a godfather. Every night I dream of wanting to shoot that Yu Jing. All these years, he is such a little bastard, but he is so heavy that I can't breathe. Being that turtle bastard everywhere, you can only shrink your head. You can count, how many times we have killed him in the past few years...but he is so fateful that he never dies every time."

"But this time it's different."

Du Tianming sighed: "Recently... a lot of people have come to the concession, and the world is going to become more and more chaotic. Once the chaos arises, people will kill me, and I will kill people. I was not talking nonsense just now. Yes, the ambition is immeasurable. Years ago when he went north, Sun Decheng and I tried to kill him, but it also became his shield."

"I can't guess what he is planning, but it must not tolerate us. Just look at the warlords in the west, which one can tolerate others sleeping soundly on the side of the couch? He used to move forward step by step with a steady foundation. Let's go, now the steps are solid, sooner or later we have to clean up the inside of Haicheng. Therefore, before he comes to kill us, we must act first."

"As for your cousin and the others worrying about luring wolves into the house, hehe, these foreigners are foreigners, at most they can be regarded as crossing the river. We Hua people have the final say on matters concerning the borders of China."

"Little Seven, you still have a lot to learn."

Du Tianming sighed again with a little complacency, and stopped talking.

Seeing that Du Tianming didn't want to say any more, Du Qi didn't ask any more questions, and just drove the car in silence, only occasionally looking at the rear seat through the rearview mirror, there seemed to be a strange flash in the bottom of his eyes.

After Chu Yunsheng accompanied Yu Jingzhi to send Du Tianming's group away, he sent away Boss Meng and others one by one.Before he left, Boss Meng left Chu Yunsheng the address of his firm, saying that he would visit him often.

Outside, the people were still lively all night long, but the hustle and bustle of the first courtyard of Yu Mansion gradually cooled down.

The door was closed, Yu Jingzhi raised his eyelids to look at Chu Yunsheng: "I didn't eat much at night, are you hungry?"

There were only some snacks for dinner, Chu Yunsheng didn't like sweets, and he really didn't eat much, but he didn't expect Yu Jingzhi to notice.For old couples, there is no need to pretentiously refuse, Chu Yunsheng nodded and said: "I am a little hungry."

Yu Jingzhi didn't seem to expect him to admit his hunger and fullness so frankly. He stared at him quietly for a while, and then suddenly smiled softly: "Young Master Chu is a good-looking person. He looks like a scholar, but he doesn't want to be a bit of a duplicity. No. Unfortunately, it's already nine o'clock, I'm not a pickpocket, and the cook at the house has already rested, if you want to fill your stomach, Chu Shao will have to figure it out on his own."

Chu Yunsheng didn't answer, and Yu Jingzhi didn't chase after him, but led him through the corridor to the kitchen.

When we got to the kitchen, it was really dark and no one was there.

Cooking the stove did not trouble Chu Yunsheng. He lit the kerosene lamp, looked around, and was about to start, but saw Yu Jingzhi rolled up his sleeves.

"Tonight for Lantern Festival, let's eat glutinous rice balls."

Yu Jingzhi said: "Chu Shao knows how to burn stoves."

Chu Yun responded, and said, "Mr. Yu wants to cook?"

"Young Master Chu, don't call me Mr. Yu anymore, just call me Jing Zhi."

Yu Jingzhi poured out the flour, and smiled at Chu Yun, "In ancient times, Liu Bei visited the thatched cottage three times to welcome Zhuge, but now I just cook a glutinous rice ball for Young Master Chu, so what? Of course, the relationship between me and Young Master Chu is not that of Liu Bei." Same as Kong Ming, now I don’t like the way of the master and minister. You and I are friends. If you help me, I will help you. ..."

Having said this, Chu Yunsheng heard what Yu Jingzhi meant, and the co-author wanted to turn his partner into a brother.

Chu Yunsheng frowned slightly, feeling a little dumbfounded.

He did not immediately refute Yu Jingzhi's remarks, but thought carefully about the origin of Yu Jingzhi's idea. For a moment, flashed in his mind Ping An's introduction to himself in front of others, and then flashed Yu Jingzhi's memory when he saw Zheng Yuansheng. Attitude, and last night's talk about the proposal, and the ultimate indulgence at the end.

After thinking about it for a while, Chu Yunsheng vaguely understood the key point.

He interrupted Yu Jingzhi's words: "Mr. Yu thinks that you and I have met before, are you humiliating me?"

Yu Jingzhi made a movement on his hand.

Chu Yunsheng didn't wait for Yu Jing's answer, and said again: "Although there are many coincidences or previous calculations, I never think it is an insult, and it is also a sincere treatment of Mr. Yu. This sincerity is now The time is still short, so we can't tell how much it is worth for the time being, but the future will be long, Mister Yu might as well take a look."

Yu Jingzhi stared down at the rolling pin in his hand.

After a long time, he shook his head and smiled, and said, "Didn't I just say that, Young Master Chu can just call me Mirror."

When these words were uttered, the tone seemed to be the same as before, but also seemed to be quite different.

But what should be said has been said, Chu Yunsheng didn't say any more, and pulled a bench over and started to sit on the fire.

Not long after, the fire in the stove stabilized, and Yu Jingzhi quickly wrapped dozens of glutinous rice balls and put them into the water one by one.

The glutinous rice balls were being cooked, when footsteps came from outside, it was the old butler who came.

Seeing the scene in the kitchen, the old butler had a look of surprise on his face, but he didn't say anything, but told Yu Jingzhi about the troupe.

It was getting late, and the theater troupe had a lot of things, and they couldn't finish packing at once, so they had to stay one night before leaving. Said that if Mr. Yu hadn't rested yet, he came to plead guilty.

Yu Jingzhi absently listened to what the old housekeeper said, and said lightly: "It's a trivial matter, what's wrong with you? Just tell them that I don't take it to heart."

After saying this, Yu Jingzhi suddenly remembered Chu Yunsheng's attention to this Fengxiang class last night.

He glanced at Chu Yunsheng, paused, and added another sentence: "Wait, you said they are waiting outside the courtyard?"

The old housekeeper was a little surprised by Yu Jingzhi's attitude, but Yu Jingzhi was so weird in his work, he didn't dare to ask more questions, and just replied: "Yes, sir, the class leader is outside the courtyard with the Tsing Yi who made a mistake."

Yu Jingzhi said with a smile: "It's more deep and dew heavy. Since it's here, let them come in and see it. If you don't see it, the Tsing Yi who made a mistake today may have to go back and wear it under the shoes. By the way, the Tsing Yi is called What's the name?"

The old housekeeper said, "Baichu, that Tsing Yi is called Baichu."

Chu Yunsheng's action of adding firewood was only a little slower at this time. He knew Professor Yin was a person, and he understood that the scumbag who was with Bai Chu in the original plot was not Yin Zheng, and he also knew that even if the two met, they would not Then there is the same development as the original plot.It's just that he was somewhat curious about Bai Chu, who was originally the main character but was subverted by the book walker.

After a while, the old butler led two people, one old and one young, from outside the courtyard gate.

Chu Yunsheng listened to the movement, turned his head slightly, looked outside the kitchen door into the night, and vaguely saw Bai Chu's appearance.

At this time, Yu Jingzhi's low voice suddenly came from beside his ear: "I heard that Young Master Chu is in Beiping, did you ever think about taking a role?"

Chu Yunsheng: "..."

He looked up at Yu Jingzhi helplessly, if I remember correctly, this jealous script should be mine.
