789 Forced by life
Yang Ming immediately had black lines on his face, and said helplessly: "Wouldn't it be the same if Zhiyun went to tutor you? I've been really busy recently, so don't you know my mobile phone number? You can come to me when you have nothing to do. , I’ll teach you something interesting.”
"Ah! Great!" Wu Zhongjie said with great joy. This was exactly the result he wanted. In fact, he didn't need Yang Ming to teach him any lessons. If he wanted to learn lessons, Lin Zhiyun was the same, but he could learn a lot of interesting things by following Yang Ming. .
"What's going on with you?" At this time, a traffic policeman saw that the roads here were blocked, so he came over and asked.
"We all know each other, so we just bump into each other for fun." Wu Zhongjie saw that Lin Zhiyun belonged to the group of unlicensed drivers, so he quickly explained.
"What? Just for fun?" The traffic policeman was stunned and looked at the two cars in front of him. He thought to himself, these rich kids have no idea what they are thinking about hitting a Mercedes-Benz with a BMW!
But since they said that, he didn't want to take any more care: "Then you drive your car to the side and don't block the road. We'll treat it as private."
Wu Zhongjie was afraid that Lin Zhiyun would get involved, so he didn't dare to stay any longer. After saying a few words to Yang Ming, he got in the car and left. This time, Ge Xinyao was the driver. Lin Zhiyun didn't dare to do it until he learned it thoroughly. On the road casually.
Yang Ming and his group arrived at the commercial street. After parking the car, the four of them strolled on the street. The children who wanted to come up to sell flowers all flinched when they saw Bi Hai's appearance. This guy was not a good person at first glance.
"No one said you look like a gang boss? Do you always dress like this?" Yang Ming looked at Bi Hai and smiled helplessly.
Bi Hai chuckled and said, "Otherwise, we can't control those gangsters who are looking for trouble in the community."
"Forget it, it's up to you, but for your position, it's not bad to look fierce." Yang Ming said.
In a blink of an eye, he arrived at the billiards hall opened by Xu Peng. Yang Ming looked at the familiar brand with a little sadness. Once upon a time, I spent my high school years here unknowingly.
Throughout his high school years, except for the second half of his senior year, Yang Ming lived in a state of confusion. Either he and Li Dagang skipped class to play billiards here, or he slept in class or fought with others.
"Let's go and have a look. This is a place opened by a good friend of mine." Yang Ming pointed to the billiard hall and said.
Bi Hai secretly remembered it in his heart and planned to say hello to the local snakes in this area another day. Take care of it. Lin Zhiyun and Ge Xinyao whispered that they would follow Yang Ming wherever he went.
"Old Xu, I'm here." Yang Ming shouted inside as soon as he entered the door. However, the situation before him stunned him. I saw four or five young men smashing billiards there wantonly, while Xu Peng stood aside like a good old man, carefully persuading these people: "Brothers, calm down, my girlfriend is ignorant. , don’t take it to heart…”
"Fuck you!" A man broke the billiard cue and threw it on the ground and cursed: "Ignorance? Why don't you just touch it twice? You actually slapped me, damn, today's business is not over yet. "
"I'm sorry... I apologize to you on her behalf..." Xu Peng said quickly.
"Old Xu, what's going on?" Yang Ming frowned when he saw the submissive Xu Peng. They all couldn't believe their eyes. Is this his follower from back then? Back then, I led him to defeat many gangsters, and now Xu Peng. But it is humble and pitiful.
"Yang... Brother Yang..." Xu Peng looked up and saw Yang Ming. Said somewhat unnaturally.
"I'm going to fuck you!" Bi Hai picked up half of the billiard cue on the ground and threw it at the leading man with a "bang" sound. \\The man immediately squatted on the ground holding his head, donating blood.
Bi Haizheng was worried that he had no chance to show his loyalty. He just heard Yang Ming say that the owner of this billiard hall was his friend. Now that he saw the owner being bullied, he immediately went up and started fighting without saying a word.
Bi Hai was a master in fighting. During this period, he went to a security company and received training from Li Qiang's group. He was so good at reaching out that he could hit the man with just one stick and couldn't stand up.
"Are you making trouble here? Don't you want to live anymore?" Bi Hai hit back and gave a man next to him who was shouting happily just now and was stunned now with a stick. He also hit his nose bone and sunk, and he lay on the ground with his face covered in blood. on the ground.
When Xu Peng saw Bi Hai beating someone, his eyes first flashed with a long-lost light, but then dimmed again. He said to Yang Ming: "Brother Yang... tell him to stop fighting. I can't afford to offend this group of people..."
"Xu Peng, what's wrong with you?" Yang Ming looked at Xu Peng in surprise: "Why have you become so cowardly after not seeing me for more than half a year?"
Yang Ming really couldn't connect the current Xu Peng with the Xu Peng in his previous impression.
"Brother Xu, what are you afraid of? There is no one in Songjiang that Brother Yang can't afford to offend!" Bi Hai quickly explained after hearing what Xu Peng said.
"Shut up first!" Yang Ming glared at Bi Hai. Bi Hai didn't know what happened in the past and thought Xu Peng was so cowardly. However, Yang Ming suspected that something had happened to Xu Peng. .
"You, who are you?" Seeing Bi Hai's bravery, the remaining two men did not dare to be careless, so they first explored his background.
"I'm from Mingyang Company. My name is Bi Hai. If you have any questions, come to me anytime!" Bi Hai said nonchalantly.
"Ah..." The two people's expressions changed after hearing this. They looked at each other and quickly helped the two people on the ground up and ran away. They kept apologizing as they ran: "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... You can’t see Mount Tai if you have eyes.”
"Xu Peng, come with me." Yang Ming grabbed Xu Peng, walked out of the billiard hall, pulled him into the BMW, and then asked: "Xu Peng, what's the matter with you? Those people Why don't you care about the trouble?"
"..." Xu Peng was speechless, lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Xu Peng, what happened to you here?" Yang Ming asked.
"Brother Yang... We are not young anymore, we can't be as impulsive as before... These little gangsters, if I beat them, they come back to trouble me, then I can't do business..." Xu Peng sighed and said.
"Then you just let them make trouble? How come you have completely changed after not seeing each other for more than half a year?" Yang Ming said in surprise: "Didn't no one dare to provoke you before you?"
"Now, it's not the era we were in at that time. The little gangsters I knew are no longer here. These little gangsters now don't buy my face at all..." Xu Peng said sadly: "What's more, these people don't care about me at all. There’s no way to offend…”
"What happened to your family?" Yang Ming frowned: "Xu Peng, do you still think of me as your boss? Can you tell me if you have something?"
Xu Peng hesitated for a long time before finally telling the truth. Xu Peng's family introduced him to a girlfriend last year. The two got along well and planned to register their marriage in two years as soon as they were old enough.
And my girlfriend’s house offended a local gangster. After Xu Peng learned about it, he went back and beat the gangster out of curiosity. The gangster also promised at that time not to cause trouble to his girlfriend's house again.
But who would have thought that as soon as Xu Peng came back, the gangster would lead his men to smash up the grocery store owned by his girlfriend in the middle of the night and then burn it down.
The family suddenly lost their livelihood and life became difficult. Xu Peng, feeling extremely guilty because it was his fault, had to bear the livelihood of his girlfriend's second elder and his girlfriend's younger brother.
Since then, Xu Peng has become cautious, fearing that if he is not careful, his business will be over, and the life of the family will immediately fall into trouble.
After hearing this, Yang Ming couldn't help but sigh, life can change a person so completely.
"Then you plan to live your whole life like this? Live so cautiously?" Yang Ming looked at Xu Peng and asked.
"Otherwise, what can we do?" Xu Peng showed a helpless look, the kind of bitter smile he showed after experiencing the vicissitudes of life.
"Have you ever thought about continuing to hang out with me?" Yang Ming looked at Xu Peng and asked suddenly.
"Ah?" Xu Peng was stunned, and then said: "Brother Yang, aren't you in college now?"
"It's true that you are in school, but did you just see the reaction of those young gangsters after hearing about Mingyang Company?" Yang Ming said: "What do you think is going on?"
"That company is more powerful..." Xu Peng's eyes heated up, then returned to calm, and said calmly.
"Yes, but if you continue to mess around like this, you will probably have food and clothing problems in the future, and you will be bullied for being weak." Yang Ming didn't say much and patted Xu Peng on the shoulder: "You have my phone number? You Think about it again and call me when you have figured it out."
Xu Peng did not speak, but fell into deep thought. After a while, he said: "Brother Yang, what are you doing now?"
"Haha, it doesn't matter what I do, but look at the attitude of that person who was even afraid of those little gangsters just now. You should be able to understand that I'm no worse off now than before." Yang Ming smiled.
"Okay, I understand, let me think about it." Xu Peng nodded.
Yang Ming said nothing, got out of the car with Xu Peng, greeted Bi Hai and the others, and left the billiards hall together.
Yang Ming called Li Dagang and asked about Xu Peng: "Dagang, have you been to Xu Peng's place recently?"
"I've been there, what's wrong?" Li Dagang was a little surprised when Yang Ming suddenly called and asked about this.
"Then you didn't realize that Xu Peng was different from before?" Yang Ming asked.
"Different?" Li Dagang paused for a moment, and then said: "Listening to what you said, it seems that he is indeed a little different, and his personality seems to have become more amiable! But he also has a girlfriend, so he should restrain his previous temper. That’s fine.”
When Yang Ming heard what Li Dagang said, he knew that he didn't know much, so he hung up the phone after a few casual greetings.
