When parents are here, there is still a place to come in life; when parents are gone, there is only a way back in life.
This sentence was heard from Li Qizhi when he was a boy. Li Muye did not know whether Teacher Li was inspired by it or read it from a book. In short, I was very sad about this sentence for a while. At that time, Brother Ono thought that he was on his way home at a young age. The painful loneliness and helplessness he felt when he thought about it was still as real as the sharp blade pressing against his face.
At noon, at home, there were three and a half dishes on the dinner table. Three cooked dishes, a half-finished product that was changed from a cooked dish to a cold dish.
Second Sister Chen's cooking skills are really not that good, at least she herself, who has recently become accustomed to Brother Xiaoye's cooking, can't stomach it. So she was surprised that Li Muye was not picky about food. Compared with Ono's Sichuan, Luhuai and Guangdong cuisine, these dishes are simply pig food. But Li Muye, who was working hard with his rice bowl in hand, was no different from a hungry teenager in adolescence.
The rice was a bit simmered, probably because not enough water was added.
"Well, I'm a little hungry too." She said weakly. Seeing Li Muye making a gesture of serving himself rice, he finally couldn't help biting his lips and said, "There are still some dishes in the kitchen, go make some."
"Oh!" Li Muye put down his chopsticks, stood up, put on an apron, and walked into the kitchen to get busy.
"Is it really that delicious?" Second Sister Chen wondered if she had missed something when she tasted it before. She took a bite unwillingly, and then spit it out calmly, thus confirming that this little brat was a good cook. The eater has the ability to create the best taste in the world, but he doesn’t have the tongue to taste it.
Li Muye quickly came out with a plate of vegetables and a plate of seafood risotto and placed them in front of Second Sister Chen. Then he picked up his rice bowl without hesitation and continued to eat.
By the way, the reading app I am using recently has many book sources, complete books, and fast updates!
"Did you crowd Shi Hongjie away today?" Second Sister Chen took a bite of the rice, and the texture and taste were completely different from before. This kid's hands were simply amazing, like a great composer, and the taste was his notes. , once he got it in his hands, he immediately assembled it into the most wonderful chapter. She tried to maintain an elegant and calm demeanor, put down the spoon, and said seriously: "I think it is inappropriate for you to do this."
"There's nothing appropriate or inappropriate." Li Muye grabbed the cup, took a glass of cold water, and drank it.
Second Sister Chen looked at her with envy, it was great to be young. After eating a belly full of medium-rare braised pork, I dared to drink cold water like this.
Li Muye put down his cup and continued: "After we leave this door, we and I will be our rivals. You can use any means to drive me away. I will take care of you."
Second Sister Chen's eyes fell on the empty plate. This little kid was still so good at eating. This thought suddenly reminded her of the child's eating appearance many years ago, inexplicably shy and awkward. She cleared her throat, hiding her inner embarrassment, and said, "Do you think you won?"
"The game has just begun. You haven't made a formal move yet, and I'm just trying my best." Li Muye said calmly: "Instead of trying to drive me away, you might as well choose to trust me like you trust Huang Yonghao."
"There are some things you can't replace him." Second Sister Chen sighed softly and said: "It has nothing to do with his ability. He is the first person in the new generation of the Ziyun Huang family, the leader of the Taiping Guild who controls hundreds of billions of resources, and also The most powerful contender for the next generation of Nanhaimen’s master.”
"It seems that you have made up your mind that you will not show mercy to me." Li Muye stood up and put away the dishes.
Second Sister Chen was like a cat guarding her food. She quickly took care of her food. She waved her hand to Li Muye and said, "I haven't finished eating yet. Your cooking skills are really nothing to say. Even the chefs in Ziguang Pavilion can't compare to you." The taste of the cooking." After a pause, he added: "Three hundred and sixty, and you will be the number one scholar in the profession. You kid can obviously be the best cook, why do you have to squeeze into this profession?" "Xing Wherever you go." Li Muye said: "Even if it's not for faith, it can be for hobbies."
"This hobby of yours is very dangerous." Second Sister Chen ate the last piece of shrimp meat with a serious look and said, "If you are willing to be a cook, you will definitely leave your name in history."
Li Muye said: "Don't you think I've done a good job so far?"
Second Sister Chen sneered and said: "The more you travel around the world, the more famous you are, the better you get. In this business where people hear thunder in silence, what is needed is low-key and precision. The biggest difference between masters of the world and professionals is professionalism. If we If you hope that a person dies in an accident, your death will not be considered suspicious, but if you kill someone, you always want to shock the world. This is the professional difference."
Li Muye said: "Actually, I have many ways to make a person leave without anyone noticing."
Second Sister Chen said: "Our professional field is not limited to murder."
Li Muye said: "I don't think you are more professional than Diana's team in this regard. Even among her, I am the strongest."
"You are just the strongest in Diana's heart." Second Sister Chen said disdainfully: "At least in my eyes, your professional level is far worse than Shi Hongjie."
"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit." Li Muye said: "He is out, but I am still here."
"He was eliminated not because he lost professionally, but because he lost because of your rogue methods. That is the field he is least good at." Second Sister Chen said: "If you want me to admit that you are better than him, just be professional." The agent's skills surpass him."
"I don't need to prove anything." Li Muye remained unmoved and said, "Especially in front of a defeated general."
"Then make a bet with me. If you win, I won't target you again in the future. If you lose, you have to agree to Shi Hongjie returning to the Special Operations Office." Second Sister Chen said, "And I promise not to use it again in the future. Use rogue tactics to squeeze him out."
"A black cat or a white cat is a good cat if it catches mice." Li Muye said, "No matter what method you use, it will work."
"Did you agree to this bet?"
"As long as you are happy, then just have fun." Li Muye lowered his head to wash the dishes and said nonchalantly.
"You agreed without even asking about the content of the bet?" Second Sister Chen looked at him suspiciously and said, "This is a bit unlike your style of doing things."
"It's okay. If the conditions are too excessive, I can still refuse."
"I forgot, the brat's face is thicker than the city wall." Second Sister Chen smiled, handed over the clean plate, and said: "It's rare that you are so good, and my godmother is not willing to embarrass you too much. I still remember that day when you Go to the same college where you met me, right?”
"Remember." Li Muye said, "But I definitely won't go to school. That turtle grandson is just a test machine."
"I don't agree if you want to go, then pediatrics is too easy for you." Second Sister Chen was amused by the word turtle and grandson. She puffed up her cheeks and suppressed her smile, making herself look serious, and said: "Bet The content is not complicated. The college will organize a practical simulation assessment recently. There are two classes, Class A and Class B. You and he will each lead a class. Whoever leads the class with better results will win."
"Don't do it!" Li Muye said: "There is too much room for cheating here."
"It won't happen if you don't agree!" Second Sister Chen said, "This is a decision made by the Safety Committee."
"When did it happen?" Li Muye was a little doubtful as to why Brother Ah Hui didn't reveal any information.
"Now!" Second Sister Chen said domineeringly: "If you don't agree, I can write you an official document first."
"You are abusing your power."
"Do you think you are the only one who can act rogue?"
Li Muye looked at her and suddenly stopped talking. Second Sister Chen was a little confused by what she saw. She raised her hand and touched her chin, wondering if she had eaten the seafood risotto in a hurry just now and some fish slipped through the net and stayed on her face. It wasn't until Brother Xiaoye looked back that he was sure that wasn't the case.
"If you want me to agree to this bet, you can." Li Muye said in a strange way: "Take me to the amusement park this weekend."
"Going to the amusement park?" Second Sister Chen frowned and said, "There's nothing wrong with you, right?"
"Am I short of maternal love?" Li Muye suddenly became angry and said, "When I was a child, I was most afraid of Mondays, not because I had to go to school again, but because on that day, I often heard other children say that their parents took them No matter where you go to play, I can only listen and envy you."
"Why do you seem so resentful?" Second Sister Chen didn't understand how someone like Li Muye could make such a weird request. She saw the stubborn obsession in Brother Xiaoye's eyes, and finally waved her hand and said, "Isn't it just a visit to the amusement park? I agree."
No matter how strong a person is, he will become vulnerable at some point, and Sister Chen is Brother Xiaoye's Achilles' heel. Although she did not play an important role in Brother Xiaoye's growth, Li Muye would feel happy whenever she thought that there was a special room in this house that she reserved specifically for her half-brother who died early. Feel warm and touching. Because he deeply felt that there was a tender corner in his mother's heart that belonged to him.
Ideal is full, the reality is very skinny.
My mother had long believed that her biological son had been dead for many years, and all her thoughts were given to the child who had nothing to do with her. The reunion of mother and son did not bring much benefit to Brother Xiaoye. On the contrary, my mother had been causing trouble for Brother Xiaoye since the first meeting.
"You agreed too reluctantly."
"Why don't you say your request is too weird?"
"So I changed my mind." Li Muye saw her embarrassment and immediately couldn't bear it anymore, saying, "Let's forget about visiting the amusement park."
"As long as the bet remains unchanged." Second Sister Chen didn't know why he changed his mind again, but this was a result she was happy to see. For her, satisfying Brother Xiaoye's desire for maternal love always feels like a futile effort.
Second Sister Chen had the habit of going for a walk after dinner, so she turned around and went into the back room. After a while, she changed into sportswear and came out. She waved to the old cat Kuidou, put on the leash and went out. Li Muye watched her go out and walk far away, then took out his phone and called Chen Binghui and told him what happened just now.
"Second Sister, this is a bad idea, why did you agree?" Brother Ah Hui said anxiously, "You have no chance of winning this bet."
"The point is not about the bet, but that I can't refuse any of her requests." Li Muye said: "There is nothing to worry about here in the Special Operations Office. A mere Shi Hongjie is insignificant."
"This is indeed a big problem." Chen Binghui said: "She is testing your bottom line little by little. If you continue to give in like this, she will only press forward step by step until she kicks you out of the special adjustment office."
"Actually, I'm mentally prepared to refuse today."
"Mother and child are connected. This is an irresistible nature, especially for you. It's a bit difficult." Chen Binghui said: "Second sister is too strong, and you are too compassionate." He paused, and then said: "Otherwise Let’s do this. Your aunt Chen Yao will return to Beijing from Hong Kong Island with her children in two days. I’ll hold a family dinner and you can come over too.”
"What's the meaning?"
"It means that although we can't tell her the truth, we can find a way to make her recognize you as family from her heart."
"The difficulty is not ordinary."
"Let's start with other family members first. It all depends on your ability. Mr. Li, who is very wealthy, shouldn't be timid?"
"Your bad idea is not very good, but I will try my best..." (End of Chapter)
