Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings

Chapter 397 0396 [Arrogance]

Du Yongxiao observed his words and saw Bai Mudan looking at the door, so he said, "What, you see an acquaintance?"

After saying that, I looked along where White Peony was looking, and saw three people walking on the street. One was an old man in a Tang shirt, wearing reading glasses, and looked like a businessman; the other was a young man, who seemed to be his son. They looked a little different; the last one was a woman with a pretty face, holding the young man's arm, they looked like a couple.

The three of them were walking in a hurry, as if something was urgent.

Bai Mudan hesitated and said, "They are my uncle, cousin, and cousin-in-law!"

"In that case, do you want to say hello?"

"This--" Bai Mudan hesitated for a moment, and saw that the three people were already in front of him, so he had to get up: "Uncle, cousin, cousin-in-law!"

When the old businessman-looking man saw Bai Mudan, his expression immediately turned ugly. He glanced at Du Yongxiao, who was sitting with Bai Mudan, and said with a flourish of his sleeves: "Is that your uncle next to you? Please don't scream!"

However, the pretty woman stood up and said, "So it's Peony. Are you eating here too?" After saying that, she glanced at Du Yongxiao. Seeing Du Yongxiao's young and handsome appearance, she couldn't help but sigh that this girl has good vision. I don't know where she caught such a good guy again. son.

"Sister-in-law, we have just sat down, do you want to join us?" Bai Mudan boldly invited.

"I can't make the decision on this, I have to ask your uncle!" After the woman finished speaking, she looked at the old man.

The old man snorted coldly and said in a sarcastic tone: "Invite me to dinner? I can't afford to embarrass this person! Not only did the good girl's family help others run the casino, but they also worked with a loan shark - why, I heard that that person died short-lived. ? You are so determined that you are going to kill me without telling your parents?"

The man coughed hurriedly, stepped forward and said to Bai Mudan: "Something happened at home, your uncle is angry, don't take it seriously!" Then he pulled his father and said: "It's not easy to see Mudan today, you don't usually Do you miss her too? It’s rare to see her today, why don’t we sit down and have a chat first!”

"Where did I say that?" Although the old man's words were still harsh, his eyes softened a lot. He followed his son's pull and sat at the table of Du Yongxiao and the others.

Through a few simple conversations, Du Yongxiao roughly understood that the old man was Bai Mudan's uncle named Bai Baigui, the man was Bai Mudan's cousin Bai Jiaju, and the woman was his wife Qin Su'e. The three of them had something to deal with here today. Unexpectedly, I met Bai Mudan halfway.

Bai Mudan is his brother's only daughter, and he loved her very much when he was a child.

However, due to a misunderstanding, the brothers turned against each other and stopped communicating with each other.

Later, something happened to Bai Mudan's family, her parents died early, and her family fell into decline.

Bai Mudan even became a dancer in a dance hall.

Bai Mudan originally planned to rescue her after learning about it, but Bai Mudan soon followed Jin Yagui, the loan shark, and began to help him manage the casino.

Bai Tiangui prides himself on being a merchant. Although he is not from a scholarly family, he still cares about face. How can he tolerate having a niece like Bai Mudan? He immediately announced that he had severed ties with Bai Mudan and was no longer a relative.

But deep down in his heart, Bai Tiangui was still worried about his little niece, otherwise he wouldn't have known about Jin Yagui's death.

After the three of them sat down, Qin Su'e immediately took Bai Mudan's hand and asked questions, appearing very affectionate.

Bai Jiaju poured tea for his father, then looked at Du Yongxiao with a smile and said: "I'm sorry, your Excellency -"

Du Yongxiao stood up and said with a smile: "Hello, my name is Du Yongxiao! I am a friend of Bai Mudan!" He extended his hand.

Bai Jiaju saw that Du Yongxiao was young but had extraordinary bearing. He hurriedly put down the teapot in his hand and reached out to hold Du Yongxiao's hand: "Bai Jiaju, cousin Bai Mudan! I am in the grain and oil business!" Then he pointed at the old man and said: "This is me. Father, we have a grain and oil company in the New Territories, and we are now preparing to open a chain in Hong Kong Island and Kowloon."

"It turns out to be Boss Bai, nice to meet you!" Du Yongxiao stretched out his hand towards Bai Tiangui.

Bai Tiangui put on airs and didn't even look at him, snorting coldly.

Bai Jiaju hurriedly said: "My father has something on his mind and is in a bad mood today!"

Du Yongxiao smiled. Since the other party was Uncle Bai Mudan, he didn't mind. He sat down immediately and said, "Why don't you tell me what the specific matter is. Maybe I can help."

Before Du Yongxiao finished speaking, Tian Tiangui glanced at Bai Mudan and said sarcastically: "Look at all the people you associate with? They are either loan sharks or arrogant! They always help others without even looking at them. If you tell me how much you weigh, can you really help me?"

Qin Su'e has always been jealous of Bai Mudan's beauty, and even more jealous of Bai Mudan's love for Bai Mudan in the past. Now she is even more jealous: "Yes, Mudan, I thought your vision had improved, but I didn't expect it to be so bad! What's the use of being pretty?" When choosing a boy, you must first be prudent and don't talk nonsense, as that will be very embarrassing!"

Bai Mudan's face turned ugly, fearing that Du Yongxiao would be angry.

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly, "You're right, I was the one who was rude! Why don't you all order first and see what you want to eat?"

Bai Mudan said hurriedly: "Yes, you order - I'm treating you today!"

Du Yongxiao knew that this was Bai Mudan's sincere intention, so he remained silent.

Qin Su'e initially regarded Du Yongxiao as a wealthy man, but now she felt that he was a soft-boiled man who actually asked a woman to pay for the dinner, and she looked down upon him even more.

Not to mention Bai Tiangui, he was already angry with Bai Mudan and angry with her for failing to live up to her expectations. Now he even looked down on Du Yongxiao. He thought there could be a good person hanging out with his niece?

Only Bai Jiaju saw that Du Yongxiao was neither humble nor arrogant, and that he was not an ordinary person in any way, so he was always polite to Du Yongxiao.

"Mr. Du, don't mind. It's mainly because there is something wrong with the family business. As I said just now, we are planning to expand our grain and oil business to Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. However, there are many barriers there, especially the police who have to collect fees. kind……"

Bai Jiaju said, taking out a box of Marlboros and popping out three of them, handing one to his father Bai Baigui, one to Du Yongxiao, and keeping one for himself.

Seeing that his son was so polite to Du Yongxiao during the day, Gui couldn't help but said: "Why do you talk to him so much? He looks only a few years old, can he still help us?"

Bai Jiaju smiled awkwardly, "If he wants to listen, I'll just talk about it!"

Bai Tiangui sighed when he heard this. He had been really angry about this matter recently.

Bai Jiaju looked at Du Yongxiao and continued: "To be honest, we have opened up all the joints this time, but we are stuck on a detective! I heard that the detective was very greedy in the past, so we are planning to treat him to dinner this time. Look Let’s see if we can settle it——”

Hearing this, Du Yongxiao was about to ask who the detective was when he saw Bai Tiangui look stunned, pointing to the door in front, and said to his father Bai Tiangui: "Inspector Yan is here!"

Du Yongxiao turned around and saw a man swaggering in from the outside surrounded by four or five people. Who else could it be if it wasn't Yan Xiong?
