Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

Seeing the envious expressions of Wolf Boy and Scorpion Tail, Liu Xu just felt a little funny. He shook his head gently, "Okay, Wolf Boy, Scorpion Tail, don't be too jealous."

"Bo Zai is smart and suitable for running errands and investigating. This is his strength. But think about it, in our team, is there any task more important than protecting my safety?"

After hearing what Liu Xu said, Langzai and Scorpion Tail nodded in agreement. They instantly understood the weight of the responsibility they shouldered.

Although they envied Bo Zai for being able to go out and run errands and investigate, they knew better that protecting the safety of their boss Liu Xu was their most important and unshirkable task.

Back at the boxing gym, Liu Xu took out his phone book from the space.

In this era, mobile phones were not equipped with the function of storing friends' phone numbers. Therefore, if you wanted to contact your relatives and friends, you could only rely on traditional phone books or small notebooks to manually record every important contact number.

Liu Xu quickly found Li Honghai's mobile phone number in the address book, then picked up the phone and dialed the number without hesitation.

At this time, Li Honghai was discussing something with Xu Tai when he suddenly felt the ringing of his cell phone. He first stopped Xu Tai from speaking, then picked up the phone and answered it.

There was a hint of doubt in his tone: "Hello, hello, who is this?

Liu Xu smiled and responded: "Uncle Hai, it's me, Liu Xu.

Hearing that it was Liu Xu, Li Honghai didn't say much and asked directly: "Ah Xu, what's the matter with you calling me?"

Liu Xu's tone was calm, but he was cautious as he typed: "Uncle Hai, I want to talk to you about something. I wonder if you are free at nine o'clock tomorrow night. Is it convenient?"

Li Honghai laughed heartily on the other end of the phone. He asked curiously, "Ah Xu, what's the matter? Can't you give me a rough idea over the phone first?"

Liu Xu said with a hint of caution, "Uncle Hai, this matter is quite important. I think it's better to talk about it in person. It's hard to explain over the phone."

He added: "Are you free at nine o'clock tomorrow night? I'll come to your hall to find your uncle Hai, and we can talk slowly then."

Li Honghai was slightly stunned after hearing what Liu Xu said. He could feel Liu Xu's seriousness and caution, and knew that this matter must be very important.

After hesitating for a moment, he smiled and nodded: "Okay, then I'll wait for you at nine o'clock tomorrow night. Come to my hall, and I'll hear your important story in person."

Liu Xu laughed and corrected Li Honghai's words: "Uncle Hai, it's not just mine, you should say it's our business. Okay, Uncle Hai, I won't bother you for now, you go ahead and get busy!"

Li Honghai responded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, just come directly tomorrow night, I'll wait for you."

"Okay, Uncle Hai, see you tomorrow." After Liu Xu made an appointment with Li Honghai, he gently hung up the phone.

At this time, at the Lianying Society headquarters, seeing Li Honghai chatting happily on the phone, Xu Tai couldn't help but ask, "Brother Hai, what are you so happy about? Is something good going to happen?"

Li Honghai glanced at Xu Tai. Ever since his son was assassinated in Liu Xu's bar, although he has not yet found the real culprit behind the murder, this incident has made him wary of the people around him.

However, he did not show his vigilance, but just smiled faintly: "Nothing, just chatted with Liu Xu. He will come to see me tomorrow night and said that he has something to discuss with me in person."

"When I asked him about something over the phone, he refused to say anything and acted mysterious." At this point, he suddenly laughed, his tone somewhat helpless, "Young people, they have many tricks."

He shook his head, seeming to find Liu Xu's behavior amusing.

However, Xu Tai did not join in Li Honghai's laughter. He warned with a serious face: "Brother Hai, you must not take it lightly. This crazy Xu has kidnapped A Ming before. It is hard to tell whether he is a friend or an enemy."

"He came to you suddenly this time and made it so mysterious. Maybe he has some tricks up his sleeve."

He paused, and said in a more serious tone: "If you ask me, it would be best to arrange a few brothers to stand by while you talk to the other party. To prevent the other party from having bad intentions."

Xu Tai's words were full of concern, however, in his deep eyes, there was a barely perceptible gloomy look.

Li Honghai thought to himself after hearing this. He understood that Xu Tai and Liu Xu had had some unpleasant quarrels. Although those minor frictions had been resolved on the surface, Xu Tai was still brooding over them privately.

At the same time, Li Honghai also clearly realized that Xu Tai had always harbored the ambition to expand his power in the Lianying Society.

Therefore, he would only believe two points of Xu Tai's words, and the remaining eight points would depend on his own judgment and experience.

In this world full of intrigues, people are often like this. If someone treats him well, he may not always remember it; but if someone does not give him face, he will definitely remember it clearly and keep it in mind.

His son now worked under Liu Xu and held 10% of Liu Xu's company shares. The two sides were still in a cooperative relationship, and Li Honghai felt that Liu Xu would not want to harm him.

Otherwise, he would not have come to his territory in person to discuss things with him. Liu Xu has already shown enough sincerity and respect.

So, he smiled faintly and said to Xu Tai: "Atai, don't worry. I know what's going on. Liu Xu must have really wanted to discuss something with me this time, otherwise he wouldn't come to visit me in person."

He paused, then continued, "However, you are right. As a veteran in the martial arts world for many years, I still have to be cautious and on guard."

Don't worry, I will arrange a few capable men to stand guard tomorrow night to ensure that no unexpected situations occur."

After listening to Li Honghai's words, Xu Tai's doubts were not completely dispelled, but he also understood the truth that talking too much will lead to mistakes. He nodded, "Brother Hai, since you have an idea in your mind, then I feel relieved."

Having said that, he stood up, said goodbye to Li Honghai, and turned to leave.

Li Honghai looked at Xu Tai's departing back, his eyes filled with mixed emotions, including emotion, helplessness, and a subtle worry.

He knew that many things had changed over time, including the relationship between him and Xu Tai.

They used to be brothers who could talk about anything, trusted each other, and faced the ups and downs of the world together. However, the passage of time and various experiences have caused a crack in their relationship.

Although the crack was tiny, it was hard to ignore. It was like an invisible wall separating their once close relationship.

What's more, now someone has set his sights on his son, which makes it even more difficult for him to trust anyone easily.

Li Honghai didn't know that Xu Tai didn't return to his territory directly as he thought.

After Xu Tai went out, he made a big circle and quietly rushed to Shanghai Street like a cheetah stalking in the night.
