This chapter is an original plot, but to a certain extent, it borrows from The Clown.
Remnant Wine walked towards the round table. Can Jiu's father was also the master Li Wei mentioned, Hu Lie. Seeing that Remnant Wine had arrived, he straightened his sitting posture. In the huge restaurant, almost everyone was holding their wine glasses. They stopped talking and paid attention to the place.
Can Jiu glanced around. A few of his relatives and a few elders from the family clans were all at this table. Everyone was here.
There was no opening speech or reminiscence. Remnant Wine casually sat in the seat reserved for him. He picked up his chopsticks and took a few bites of the food. Everyone didn't say anything and just stared at Remnant Wine eating.
After eating a few mouthfuls. Savage Wine threw his chopsticks on the ground and his attitude was thrown to the extreme."Don't talk to me about anything right now. I don't want to hear it. The only reason I'm here today. It wasn't because of anyone. There are only two things I want to hear now. What I want to do, and second, what I can get. Hurry up, I don't have much time. I have to fly back today. Other than that, I don't want to hear any nonsense!”
"Uh, Xiaoxi. "Actually, we…" Can Jiu's mother, Lu Zhen, stammered. In fact, back then, Can Jiu was forced out by the family. It was also because her mother was not domineering. If only she had been a little stronger. Can Jiu wouldn't have been forced into such a miserable state by the clan.
"The old thing hasn't even spoken yet. Turn it off!" Wine Remnant's attitude was really arrogant, but he had his reasons and confidence. In the local dialect, the word " shut up " meant to shut up.
He knocked on the table with his knuckles.
"What you need to do is take over the Far East. What you can get is 50% of Far East's shares.”Hu Lie, Can Jiu's father, said with his weathered voice.
"Not interested. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first." As he spoke, Remnant Wine stood up impolitely.
"Wait, you really don't have me as your father in your eyes."”
"Oh, then…Father, please eat and drink well." I've already finished eating. I'll leave first. Enjoy your meal."
The elders at the table frowned when they saw Can Jiu's attitude. Then, he gave Hu Lie a look. But Hu Lie didn't care about those elders at all.
"Little Zai, you're still too young to be stubborn with me. Have you forgotten what I started off doing?”Hu Lie merely cast a glance, and a few soldiers in navy uniforms stood near the entrance of the restaurant with guns in their hands."Since you're here, don't think about going back so easily. Aiya, I'm getting on in years. It's not easy for me to see you. How about giving each other face?"
Wine Remnant looked around and saw that several passages were blocked. This was a well-known hotel with more than a hundred floors. It was impossible to escape. "Old thing."
"Oh, okay, okay, okay. You win. What do you want? Come on, kill or scrape as you wish. He had experienced all kinds of storms. It's as if it's real." Remnant Wine knew that this was a game. He sat back in his seat.
" Ahem…Xiaoxi, actually, we…" Before the elder could finish speaking, Hu Lie suddenly slammed a revolver heavily on the table. The elder was almost scared to death. He sighed in his heart at how this father and son did not play by the rules.
He took out a bullet from his military uniform. He filled it into the revolver.
"Russian Roulette, Death Revolver. You should be familiar with this. Just the two of us. How is it?" Hu Lie suddenly took out this, scaring everyone present half to death. This…this was risking his life with his own son!
" Clan Leader, you can't…" A few elders stepped forward to stop Hu Lie. However, he was frightened by Hu Lie's gaze and retreated. No one dared to speak. The atmosphere was as silent as death.
"You win. I'll give you 50% of Far East's shares with both hands. Then, you can do whatever you want. No one will care about you for the rest of your life. You can still see my brain exploding. If you lose, I'll get someone to collect your corpse.”Hu Lie said this. He indeed did not treat Can Jiu as his son. It was as if he was cruel to the enemy.
Hearing this, Savage Wine laughed and almost broke out in laughter. "I remember when I was fifteen, you guys forced me to play this game with my only friend. I watched her die in front of me. And now, he was doing this. Sure, you go first."
Remnant Wine's move was crazy. Generally speaking, in a game like Death Revolver, the chances of getting a bullet on the first shot were relatively low. There was only a one in six chance. Hu Lie was also a rather crazy person. He faced his own head without any hesitation. He pulled the trigger. Without any bullets, he threw the revolver in front of Remnant Wine.
Can Jiu smiled and stood up. He loaded the bullet and pressed it against his chin, shouting,"" What determines success or failure?!" This sentence was very loud and clear. Almost everyone in the restaurant heard it. Tang Rou also saw the commotion in the middle of the restaurant and looked around. He didn't find anything and continued eating. After saying that, he pulled the trigger. There was a click. The bullet didn't go off. However, everyone's bodies trembled as they heard the clatter. They were obviously a little afraid.
"Time!" The smile on Can Jiu's face gradually went crazy.
After saying that, Canjiu didn't return the revolver to Hu Lie. He continued to lock the barrel at the end of the revolver.
"What is maturity?" Savage Wine continued to pull the trigger. This made everyone tremble again.
" Maintain elegance in the face of pressure." Can Jiu still answered his own question.
After saying that, Remnant Wine continued to load the gun. The revolver was pressed against his chin. The probability of getting hit was quite high now. Everyone started to tense up.
"What is courage?" As usual, he pulled the trigger. There were still no bullets.
"The power to overcome fear."
"Then who has the final say now?" Remnant Wine loaded the gun. Everyone knew that four shots had already been fired. There was only a 50% chance that he would survive. This was no longer a game of Death Revolver. It was suicide in a sense.
Remnant Wine slowly pulled the trigger. Bang…
The gunshot rang out, but Wine Remnant's head was still fine. With a puzzled expression, Can Jiu pulled out the bullet shell stuck in his jaw, and his hands were covered in blood. Then, he laughed because it was an empty list."Now, I have the final say!" After saying that, Remnant Wine threw the revolver on the table. The force was so strong that the glass on the table shattered.
" Hahaha…That's amazing…" Old Master Hu Lie took the lead in clapping. Remnant Wine, who originally wanted to turn around and leave, was baffled.
In fact, the moment Savage Wine picked up the revolver, he realized that the weight of the revolver was wrong. Therefore, he had long known that this was actually an empty shell. All of this was just a temporary show. However, he did not expect that Xiu Canjiu's acting was so realistic that it shocked the entire Hu Clan.
"Now, my son Hu Canxi. The next Hu Clan Leader. Does anyone have any doubts?" Hu Lie's expression instantly became amiable. He instantly handed a small wine cup to Remnant Wine.
Although Savage Wine was a little confused about the current situation, he still generously drank the wine in one gulp. Then, he smashed the wine cup heavily on the ground, shattering it.
Many people stood up in the restaurant. Everyone had a wine glass in their hands. At this moment, it was already very clear that Can Jiu was the person who picked up Hu Lieban. Now was the time to express his stance.
Li Wei had the best relationship with Remnant Wine. He downed his wine glass. He also smashed the cup onto the ground heavily like the wine, shattering it into pieces."Far East Group, executive director of the board of directors, Li Wei seconded!”This meant that he had acknowledged Savage Wine's identity.
"Greentown Real Estate's Director, Hu Gang. Seconded." He smashed the wine glass.
"Director of Wanke Group, Li Wenfang. Seconded." He smashed the wine glass.
"Virtual Technology Culture Media, also acting as Penguin Film and Television, Executive Director, Hua Wei. Seconded."
"Xiao Jin Financial Information Service Company, Managing Director. Hu Zongyao, seconded."
“………………”
The sound of glasses being smashed rose and fell. Interestingly, most of the people who revealed their names were surnamed Hu. Remnant Wine was also confused. He could only look at Hu Lie in confusion.
………………………………………………………………
"What's wrong? Are you stunned?" Hu Lie looked at Can Jiu with amusement,"This is your last trial." You already have all the qualities that the Hu Clan Leader needs.”
"No, then what do you mean now? Does that mean I can leave now?" Can Jiu was even more confused.
"You can leave anytime you want. No one stopped you from driving my car." Hu Lie's serious expression changed and he said cheerfully.
When Hu Lie said this, Can Jiu sat down instead. "Does that mean I'm the next clan leader?" No, where are my brothers? All dead? It's not my turn to be the clan leader!"
"Oh, those good-for-nothings. I haven't been looking after them since they were young." Hu Lie's answer caused Can Jiu to fall into chaos. Could it be that all of this was a trial for him by the clan? Including his escape when he was 16 years old?
"Alright, don't worry about it for now. The overall situation was set. Your status is different now. As the next clan leader. I still have a few tasks for you.”"Of course, you can choose not to accept it." Hu Lie said calmly.”
"Oh? Tell me about it." Can Jiu was also secretly amused. His identity had changed, and even his father's attitude had changed.
"It's just as you guessed. The Hu Clan wanted to control the fishing vessel. And you, you're now at the height of your power with that lousy game. That's why we want to make you a little famous.”Hu Lie said.
"Forgive me for being blunt, but I think I'm already quite famous.”Can Jiu quibbled.
"No, no, no. You're different from what I said. What we need is…for example, a movie that only has a few million dollars at the box office. All you needed to do was advertise and brag about it, and the box office of this movie would rise to hundreds of millions. It was this kind of superstar. This was enough to control the fishing wheel. Within two years. I don't care what method you use. I want you to reach this level. Of course, you can use the family's resources as you wish.”
"Alright." "If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."”
