Heidler's original intention of inviting his two close friends to talk about this matter was that he hoped that these two people could make the same choice as him, leave the empire at this critical moment, and find a more remote place in the countryside to spend their time. Remaining life.
Now the more indifferent and indifferent the superiors treat them, the more panicked he becomes. People often say that as people get older, they tend to worry about small things. In fact, this statement is essentially wrong.
Why do older people become more timid? It's because they have seen too many accidents in their lives, and they have seen too many tragedies in which small things that were inconspicuous led to the death of others. Young people are ignorant and too frivolous. They always think that they can conquer the whole world and have no awe of the world. It is the heavy price these young people have to bear for their ignorance and fearlessness that makes older people start to fear and learn to awe.
Unfortunately, his two friends had no plans to leave the Empire. The current performance of the empire in all aspects is, without exception, moving in the best direction. The economic boom and the war situation make everyone living in the empire feel inexplicably inspired, as if the empire is the core of the world. , is the only civilized society.
How can people who are used to putting on clothes before going out run out naked
The purpose of their parents' betrayal of the country was to gain glory, wealth and power. If they lost all these, why would their parents have to bear the reputation of treason in exchange for these things
No matter how good those small countries with beautiful scenery are, they are still underdeveloped countryside. Moreover, they have spent their whole life working on their own industries. How can they just give up? And this fear does not come from themselves, but from a person. other people.
Unable to persuade his two friends, Heidler could only send them away with a wry smile, and then asked the butler to sell off his property as soon as possible, pack up some things he needed to take away, and leave the empire within a week. He would not wait any longer. .
Handler has had many lovers so far, but he does not have any biological descendants. He suffers from a world-famous intractable disease and cannot have any descendants of his own. Some people say that his father's retribution fell on him, while others say that he is actually fertile, but he is just pretending to be himself. Only he knows that he is really infertile.
However, he has an adopted son and has a very good relationship with him. After all, Heidler has adopted such a descendant, so there will be no tragic comedy of fighting for the heir, and the relationship is maintained very well.
The next day, Handler's adopted son called Handler because he heard that Handler was selling off his property. This middle-aged man in his forties was a little angry and a little confused. , why would Handler sell his property at this time? Does he want to transfer the property to those parents and children who are rumored to exist secretly
Regardless of any speculation, there was a place in his heart that he couldn't let go. Heidler's actions were not informed to him and he was completely unaware of them.
What Heidler said on the phone was not very detailed. In short, he told his adopted son that he would sell off all his properties, donate part to the empire, and leave part to him. In the end, Heidler would leave the empire with a small part and find a new owner. Place for seclusion.
After hearing that Handler had made such an irrational move, his adopted son told him on the phone that he would interview him as soon as possible.
Just when Heidler hung up the phone and simply washed up and prepared to rest, the moment he entered the bedroom, his body immediately became stiff.
"Please close the door, sir." There was a slender figure hidden in the darkness in the cloakroom without turning on the lights. Only white trousers and black leather shoes could be seen. The young voice sounded familiar. He couldn't remember when. , heard it somewhere, but he heard something else, the accent.
That was the accent of Tenel City, which was absolutely unmistakable. He had lived in Tenel City for a long time and knew many things there very well.
There are two lingua franca in this world. One is the lingua franca based on the old civilization. It is mainly used in parts of the Western Continent and the Southern Continent. The pronunciation and grammar of this lingua franca are closer to ancient idioms, and the accent is beautiful. Sonorous and powerful, it sounds a bit like singing again.
There are also two other continents, including the new civilization lingua franca used by the empire, which is the language used by people every day (most countries in the South Road do not use the lingua franca, and there are more dialects).
The two lingua franca are distinct due to their historical background and geographical environment. The Western Continent has relatively well-preserved ancient books and ancient buildings from before the Great Destruction. Many small countries are very obsessed with the civilization before the Great Destruction. From many years ago, Starting from before, the kings and chiefs of the Western Continent believed that they were the most orthodox successors of the old civilization, and dreamed of conquering other forces and unifying the world. In order to ensure that their origins can withstand research, they use ancient common languages that have been passed down for a long time. As for whether this language family is really ancient languages, that is another question.
The lingua franca of the new civilization is the main language of the other two continents, namely the Northern Continent and the Eastern Continent. It is a universal language that is finally perfected by combining the mainstream population and historical changes.
The language can be the same, but the accent is absolutely impossible to be unified. It may be due to historical relations, or it may be due to the different organ development of different races. In short, the accents in different places are different. There are some small countries and federations outside Tenel City. It is a place with mixed accents. Under the fusion of many accents, Tenel City has a special common language accent.
There will be some added sounds on some syllables. For example, the word "good morning" will sound a bit like "good morning" to the people of Turnel City. It was originally a relatively mixed and relatively backward place, and cultural exchanges were relatively closed. The combination of various factors led to the formation of this accent.
Although the guy hiding in the cloakroom didn't have a strong accent, Haidler could still hear the faint Turnel accent, and at the same time he had some Guart pronunciation habits. He had already realized something.
He closed and locked the bedroom door, then walked to the bed and changed into his pajamas. The saggy skin hangs bloatedly on his body like resin, and there are brown age spots. He has been in trouble in the past few years. The dual mental and physical fatigue makes him age faster than the rich men of his age. .
After changing into silk pajamas, he turned around and looked at the shadow in the cloakroom, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Did Du Lin ask you to come?"
The man pressed the button of the light on the wall, and the soft white light lit up, revealing Du Fu's handsome face. He smiled like a heartless young man, nodded, and admitted Haidler's guess, "Du Lin My husband originally wanted to come over in person as soon as possible, but he had some things to deal with temporarily, so he asked me to come over and visit you first. "
Heidler looked at his surroundings and said with a smile that made me almost believe him, "This is not the way to visit me!"
Duffer slowly walked out of the cloakroom, shrugged, took out a bottle of wine and two glasses from the wine cabinet on one side, placed them on the cabinet, and poured some wine. A glass was given to Heidler, and a glass was held in his own hand, "What the hell? In short, I just have to do what the boss said. The form and process are not important." He raised the glass, took a sip, and sat down. On the sofa, "You can rest or do whatever you want to do. The boss will come over at about two o'clock."
Heidler's mouth curved and he smiled a little uncontrollably, "Including leaving here?", before Dufo could answer, Heidler also sat down, "How is Dulin going to deal with me?"
"You should have thought of it..."
After the two chatted for a while, Heidler took advantage of the drunkenness to lie down on the bed and fell asleep. At his age, going to bed early and getting up early has become an instinct in life. Even if he has to face scary things, he can't do it. It can be said that this is his determination not to disturb his sleep. Of course, it may also be that he wants to die in his dream.
But the result was destined not to go as he imagined.
At around three o'clock in the evening, three cars drove into the manor. When Dulin walked in from the gate of the building, everyone had been subdued. When he walked towards Hedler's bedroom and passed through the central aisle, his footsteps paused. , and then stopped. He turned around and looked at a guy standing against the wall. He was in his forties and wearing glasses. He looked very educated. When Dulin looked at him, he lowered his head.
"I didn't expect us to meet again!" Du Lin smiled like an innocent child like Du Fu, with a pure and flawless smile, but his words made the man's body tremble slightly.
After looking at the people around him, he looked at the man again, "I'm very sorry. The last time I took the car you used, your car was stained. I deeply regret this..." This guy was the one who was there that year. Turnell picked him and Graf up to meet Hedler's driver. Dulin will never forget the treatment he received that day. The contemptuous look in his eyes and the action of wiping the seat cushion ignited his murderous intention. This hidden murderous intention So far, it finally broke out during the reunion today.
He never felt that he was doing this. It was incorrect and unhealthy to have such a mentality. He felt that this was the only thing that was natural. Those who advise you to be tolerant and let go may not really be kind to you, because the slap that is defined as the shame of life did not hit their face.
Complaining and taking revenge are Du Lin's attitude in life.
Yesterday, you severely humiliated me.
So today, I will take revenge!
tolerant
understanding
Maybe someone could do it, but certainly not Dulin.
He hooked his fingers, and the person behind him took two steps closer. Dulin pointed at the driver casually and said, "Take him away to see their God and give this gentleman a decent way. After all, I am a Tolerant person!”
At this time, Du Lin didn't mind showing his generosity!
Lao Guo said it well, everyone who advises you to let go is just waiting to see the excitement. People who sincerely care for you will never ask you to endure humiliation and let go of hatred.
