I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 428 Who Knows What's After
After Cao Jinbo left, I sat alone on the bench opposite the inn. Looking at the empty street, I felt quite uncomfortable. After all, I had worked hard and seen hope here. If it wasn’t for the intervention of an intermediary , disrupted the market here, we were only a little bit close to building this commercial street.

Maybe Jiulongju is really as evil as it is in the legend, and its evilness is just reflected in our only a little bit... Obviously we are infinitely close to success, but when we are about to take the most important step, it is gone It collapsed like a building without any warning.

……

I lit a cigarette, and Cao Xiaobei in the inn was also smoking, and there was only a deserted street between us.

I smiled at him first, and then shouted: "Long time no see, come out and chat for a while."

"No time."

"There is no one in the whole street, what can you do?"

"I don't fucking want to talk to you, okay?"

"I have a pack of cigarettes brought back from Shandong, which I usually can't smoke... Come out and smoke one."

Cao Xiaobei glanced at me, but ignored me.

I said to him again: "Let's be serious...how is your inn business?"

Cao Xiaobei came out from the inn, he looked around and said to me: "Do you know what my dad just trained me for?"

"You ask this, it must be for the inn."

"At that time, the shop in Jiulongju was fired up to 300 million units. He wanted to sell the shop at that time, but I didn't agree. I insisted on opening an inn... He always uses this matter to lecture me... But I Where did I go wrong? I just want to do a good job!"

"Your father, you don't know, he is a businessman through and through, with a capitalist mindset... To put it bluntly, he is mercenary... So, you must be right, let's not care about whether the inn is done well or not, At least you are living for your dreams, which is already superior to others!"

I took the opportunity to run on Cao Jinbo, but unexpectedly, I got Cao Xiaobei's approval. He nodded and asked me for a cigarette.

It seems that he hasn't changed at all in the past year since I left, and he still has the bad temper that doesn't understand the sufferings of the world... He doesn't know that people will laugh at him when he says the word "dream" these days, Because no one believes that the so-called dream can heal one's wounds... It is okay to be cruel and cruel, so everyone is happy to call themselves a cruel person, or simply be a cruel person.

Cao Xiaobei lit a cigarette, squinted his eyes and took a puff, and then said to me: "The inn's business is actually pretty good, but it's certainly not making money by selling shops... But not everything has to be measured by money, he has to See my hard work this year."

"That's right... If he lectures you on this matter next time, just tell him that today he won't let you fight for your dreams, but tomorrow you will lose all his property... You let him choose. You are a person with dreams, or you are a prodigal...Anyway, I think it is really worth it to exchange these sets of shops in Jiulongju for an awakened successor!"

"It's in my heart...why didn't I think of saying this to him?"

I smiled and replied: "That's because you didn't put yourself on an equal footing with him... You were a little afraid of him, and you thought that if you had a louder voice, you could cover up the fact that you were afraid of him, But truth is never something that can be yelled out... You have to calm down first, so that you can truly see where your strengths lie."

Cao Xiaobei nodded, and said to me after a while: "You are a smart person, so Sisi will like you... I never understood before, I thought you were no match for me...Actually, I am far from you You can play with the entire Jiulongju, but I can't even handle my own father!"

After a little silence, he said again: "I thought that if I leave Sisi to work in the inn, she will feel at ease if I give her a little more money... But, you made millions for her without saying a word. Of course she will like you, because you are the man who can give her a sense of security!"

Cao Xiaobei's words are of course biased, but I can still see his growth. At least he is willing to face up to some things, instead of wanting to fight me when he talked about his pain points like before. , Even if you don't do it, you will scold me a few words by the neck.

I thought he hadn't changed, but even he had changed.

I spat out the smoke heavily, and I finally said to him: "Your words are right or wrong, the business of Jiulongju is, to put it bluntly, a capital operation, and everyone with vision has made money, and there is no such thing as anyone playing who."

Cao Xiaobei looked up and looked into the distance, and then replied: "I don't care about Jiulongju... I just want to ask, will you be with Sisi... It's been a year, and the people chasing her around There are so many people, but she has been single, and we all know who she is for."

I don't speak.

Cao Xiaobei said again: "You can rest assured... this time I promise not to turn against you."

"Who knows what will happen in the future!"

……

After leaving Cao Xiaobei's place, I wandered around the ancient city again, and it was already noon in a blink of an eye... I called Xiao Song from the car dealer and asked him to get me a car. I still need a car to get around until my Jimny arrives.

Since I bought a BMW 740LI, Xiao Song has already regarded me as a big shot. Even though I told him in advance that it was only for two or three days, he still sent me a BMW Z4. He said that this car can Matches who I am now.

I stayed with Xiao Song for a meal, and the two chatted for a while, and before we knew it, it was already afternoon.

Cao Jinbo said, Ye Zhi must have already arrived when she arrived in Dali in the afternoon... But so what, I still won't go out with her to socialize like Cao Jinbo thought... This is what we have to do, even if it's two people The distance between the bodies is only one millimeter, and they have to pretend not to see each other.

……

After Xiao Song left, I went to see a few friends, but I always felt a sense of emptiness in my heart, which is inevitable. It is impossible for me to quickly enter the state of work on the first day I just returned to Dali , I need a little time to adapt.

However, this feeling of emptiness makes me more and more irritable... so that I don't concentrate when chatting with others, and I don't concentrate when I'm silent, and I always think about it.

What's wrong with me?
……

In a trance, it was dusk, and I was alone in the hotel room, and I felt anxious about having nowhere to go. I forced myself to sleep for a while, but as soon as I closed my eyes, my mind was full of Cangshan and Erhai, and then there is a feeling of being trapped.

But I don't want to go out, because the world outside the window is gloomy, and there may be a heavy rain later.
