The next day, Shaodong was still in his dreams when he was awakened by the noise. He yawned and stretched his back as he walked to the window.
Looking at the happy people on the street, she couldn't help but feel excited. She remembered the phone call from Zixuan yesterday. She turned around and went into the bathroom to wash up.
With a towel wrapped around her waist, she dried her hair and walked out of the bathroom. "Thump, thump, thump." There was a knock on the door." Who is it?" Shaodong walked over and opened the door.
" Ah..." As soon as he opened the door, he saw a girl covering her face and shouting. There was a box hanging in one hand.
When Shaodong heard this shout, he remembered that he wasn't wearing any clothes, so he said,"Xu Lei, there's nothing to see. Is there a need to call him that?"
Xu Lei stopped screaming and covered her face."Hurry up and go back and put on your clothes. Seriously..."
Shaodong then turned around and walked towards the room. Just as he entered the room, Shaodong turned around and said,"Come in and sit. I'll be done in a while.”With that, he closed the door.
Xu Lei carried the box in her hand and walked into Shaodong's room. It was her first time entering Shaodong's room. She looked at the neat layout and placed the box on the table. She picked up the book on the table and read," How Steel is Tempered." He thought to himself, what kind of books are they reading? He actually read such a book. He threw the book back on the table and sat on the sofa in a daze.
After a while, Shaodong came out wearing a clean shirt with only three buttons buttoned. He rolled up his sleeves and saw Xu Lei sitting on the sofa, so he said,"Do you want something to drink?"
Xu Lei turned to look at this refreshing big boy and chuckled. Orange juice, thank you."
Shaodong took out orange juice from the fridge and handed it to Xu Lei. He took a can of coke and sat on the sofa."Is there something you need from me?"
Xu Lei put down the orange, picked up the box on the table and said,""Today is New Year's Day, and you're always alone, so I specially bought some pastries for you.”After saying that, he opened the lid and the fragrance of the pastry wafted into his nose.
Shaodong looked at the pastries in the box and chuckled."Thank you. By the way, where are you going to celebrate New Year's Day tonight?”
Xu Lei took a small sip of the orange. Hearing Shaodong's question, she said,"Of course I've been home. I'll go to the station to take a bus home later. What about you? Are you going alone?"
Shaodong laughed." How can I live alone? I'm going to Zixuan's house later."”
"Oh, oh, you guys are developing quite quickly. You've already met your parents.”Xu Lei slyly stuck out her tongue and said.
Shaodong scratched Xu Lei's nose with his finger and said,"You're so smart. What are you thinking?”
Xu Lei suddenly blushed and lowered her head without saying anything. Only then did Shaodong realize that his actions just now were a little ambiguous. He stood up awkwardly and walked to the window while drinking his coke. At the same time, he cursed himself for what he was doing.
After a while, Xu Lei stood up and whispered,""Shaodong, I should go."
Shaodong turned his head and looked at Xu Lei, who still had her head lowered, and said,"Do you want me to send you there?"
Xu Lei shook her head." No need. The station isn't far anyway. It'll only take a few minutes."”After saying that, he hurriedly walked out.
Shaodong smiled bitterly and picked up the pastries on the table to eat.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Shaodong came to Haotian Company. There were still many brothers busy in the company. When they saw Shaodong come in, they shouted,"Brother Dong."
Shaodong nodded and said," Why are you guys still busy? Go home today. It's New Year's Day. I'll give you a break today."”
Hearing this, the brothers present cheered happily. Shao Dong came to the office on the third floor. Situ Qing was sitting on the sofa with his arms crossed in front of his chest, thinking about something. When he saw Shao Dong come in, he stood up and said in a low voice,"Brother Dong."
"How are Haoran and Tianhu now?" Shaodong nodded.”
Hearing his question, Situ Qing replied,"They are much better now. They have already gone home to recuperate.”
Only then did Shaodong remember that Situ Qing was alone today, so he said,"Situ, where are Hao Long and the others?"
At this moment, Hao Long, Leopard, and Wild Boar walked in with big and small bags in their hands. When they heard that Shaodong was looking for them, they said,"Brother Dong, you were looking for us."
Shaodong nodded and said,"Tonight, call all the homeless brothers in the gang to have a meal there. The expenses will be on me."”
When the wild boar heard what Shaodong said, it said strangely,"Brother Dong, what about you?"
The leopard slapped the wild boar and said,""Of course, Brother Dong went to Sister-in-law's house to eat. You've already met your father-in-law. Are you still going to accompany us?”
Everyone burst into laughter after hearing Baozi's words. Shaodong turned to Situ Qing and said,"What about you? Go with them.”
Situ Qing stood up and pointed at his own nose."Can I go too?"
Hao Long nodded and said,"Of course, we are all brothers."”
Shaodong suddenly remembered that there was still Xing Tian, so he said,"Where's Xing Tian? Where's Zi Rong and Zi Hui? He also called all of them. I won't be accompanying you tonight. Brothers, I'm sorry.”
"Brother Dong, what are you talking about? Xing Tian is accompanying his brother in the hospital now." Hao Long waved his hand and said. Zi Rong, Zi Hui, and Hao Ran are together. I heard that they are asking about the assassination. I will call them all tonight.”
Shaodong nodded and said," After today, let our brothers rest well. We are not satisfied with a small place like City K. What we want is the entire continent."”
Hao Long and the other two nodded and said together,"That's right, the world."
Situ Qing was shocked when he heard Shao Dong's words. Was he joking? There were countless dark forces in China, and the Hong Triad's influence was spread across the entire mainland. Although he thought so in his heart, he still smiled on his face.
In the afternoon, Shaodong knocked on Zixuan's door with big and small bags.
"Brother-in-law, why didn't you come to see us for so long? Let me tell you, I've missed you too much recently.”As soon as Lu Wenbo opened the door, he pulled Shaodong and whispered.
"What about your sister?" Shaodong asked softly.”
"My sister is taking an afternoon nap in her room." Lu Wenbo chuckled. Quickly go and see her. Don't worry, my parents aren't here."
Shaodong nodded and handed it to Lu Wenbo. Then, he said,"Shh, you stay downstairs. I'll go and see her. Don't scream. Do you know?"
Lu Wenbo covered his mouth and nodded. Shaodong quietly pushed open Zixuan's door and smelled the fragrance of the room. He walked over lightly and looked at the sleeping Zixuan before sitting on the bed.
Was this happiness? He looked at the girl he cared about the most, sleeping peacefully beside him. This was happiness.
Shaodong couldn't help but lean over to Zixuan and gently kiss her forehead. Zi Xuan frowned and opened her eyes.
Looking at the familiar man in front of her, Zi Xuan's eyes were filled with tears. Shaodong grabbed Zixuan's head and she cried.
Shaodong raised Zi Xuan's head and said bitterly,""Silly girl, did you miss me?"
Zi Xuan nodded and said,"I haven't seen you for so long. I miss you very much."”Zi Xuan looked up and saw the person standing at the door. She shouted in surprise,""Daddy."
Shaodong cursed himself for forgetting to close the door. He stood up and called out with a smile,"Uncle."
Lu Qikang chuckled as he walked over and said,"It's really hard to keep a grown woman." Don't let my daughter down.”
When Zi Xuan heard Lu Qikang's words, she blushed and lowered her head. Shaodong nodded awkwardly and said,"Uncle, don't worry. I will do it.”
But why would Lu Qikang think this way? Looking at their intimate appearance, Lu Qikang couldn't bear it.
After having dinner at Zixuan's house, Shaodong walked on the street, thinking about how difficult his path was and how the people around him were living their lives with worry. However, how could he be better than others if he didn't have to risk his life? At the thought of this, he lit a cigarette in relief.
A man wearing a cap hurried over to Shaodong. When he passed by Shaodong, an accident suddenly happened. The man roared and took out a chopper from his waist and slashed at Shaodong's back. Instantly, a twenty-centimeter gash appeared on Shaodong's back.
Shaodong staggered and almost fell to the ground. He rolled around lazily and stood up with difficulty. The blood behind him had already stuck to his clothes. His face was pale as he said,"Who are you?"
The man in the cap didn't respond. He whistled and in a few seconds, six or seven men dashed out from the alley and stood with the man. Everyone took out a chopper from their waist and pointed it at Shaodong.
Young Master Dong chuckled." Since you want to kill me, tell me who you are so that I can die with a clear understanding."”
At this moment, a burly man wearing sunglasses said hoarsely,"You can go underground and ask Hades." After saying that, he charged at Shaodong with his saber. Seeing this, the others also rushed forward with their sabers.
Shaodong quickly took out his revolver and killed a man. The men were shocked and did not dare to get close. Young Master fired another shot, but those people had already suffered a loss. The moment Young Master raised his gun, they had already dodged to one side. Seeing that they did not shoot, they ran into the alley.
Seeing this, the " sunglasses man " shouted," Let's chase him together. Pay attention to his weapon."”
Shaodong ran into the alley and hid in a corner. He looked at the bullets in his gun. Oh no, there was only one bullet left. When she saw that the person behind her had already caught up, she took out her phone and took a look. F * ck, she was so unlucky that her battery had run out.
The pain on his back made Shaodong gasp. He took off his clothes and tied them up randomly. He didn't know if it would work, but he shivered with his upper body naked. He watched as the few people behind him raised their guns and fired. " Ah!" With a scream, someone was hit. He was secretly glad that his luck was not too bad. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he picked up a brick and hid behind a telephone pole, not daring to breathe loudly. He thought to himself that this group of people must have something to do with He Haoran and Sun Tianhu being attacked. If they ran away now, he was afraid that they would have an ambush.
The man in sunglasses had just heard gunshots and one of his men had been killed. The few of them leaned against the wall and did not make a sound. After a while, he said,"His gun might not have any bullets, but he killed the bastard in one breath to avenge his dead brothers.”This sentence was indeed effective. The remaining four people roared and rushed in.
Shaodong thought that there was no other way to hide like this, so he carried the brick and went up.
