hell cycle

In the Great World Ballroom, a song that has been popular for half a century and is now popular throughout Shanghai, the dancer is singing on the stage, and off the stage, the dancer and the guests who come here to have fun dance lightly on the dance floor.

The country is ruined and the family is destroyed, drunk and dreamed of death.

Ah Cheng opened the door and walked in with Cao Xingping skillfully towards a small private room. Two tall bodyguards at the door immediately stopped Ah Cheng.

Ah Cheng tilted his head slightly, looked at the two bodyguards with some surprise and some meaning, and said, "Your vice president invited me, what, I'm here so you won't let me in?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the box opened immediately, and Wu Qide said reservedly and enthusiastically, "Mr. Ah Cheng, you are here." After saying this, he immediately scolded the two bodyguards, "What kind of eyes are you looking at! Why didn’t you tell me when Mr. Cheng came!” After speaking, he immediately apologized to Ah Cheng again and again, “The people under me are stupid, they don’t know Mount Tai, Mr. Ah Cheng, don’t bother with them.”

Ah Cheng smiled, didn't say anything, and followed Wu Qide's courteousness into the box, saying: "Boss Wu is getting more and more careful."

Wu Qide shook his head helplessly, and said, "There's no way, the law and order in Shanghai is getting worse and worse. No, Mr. Wang was assassinated not long ago...I'm also trying to be careful."

Ah Cheng took off his coat and sat down. Cao Xingping, who had been silent all this time, was also seated. Ah Cheng smiled and said, "Ever since I returned to Shanghai with Mr. Ming, Boss Wu has been saying that he wants to treat me to dinner, hey, The new government has just been established, and Mr. Ming is busy. As a secretary, I have no reason to abandon my boss and run around on my own, but I have never had time to have a good meal with Boss Wu and catch up with the old days. Today is rare... By the way, What happened to Qiming, still throwing a fit?"

It is not a secret that Wu Qiming was confined at home by his elder brother Wu Qide.

When Wu Qide heard Ah Cheng mentioning his younger brother, he had no choice but to smile bitterly and said, "Hey, my precious brother, spoiled by my parents, too self-willed... If only he had half of your directorial prospects, Ah Cheng."

Ah Cheng watched with a smile as this man became fat and fat in middle age, lost his arrogance and edge, and became more slippery and sophisticated, the head of the Wu family. Suddenly, the figure of Ming Lou appeared in his mind. There is a bit of resemblance, but now, this person does not have the slightest figure of "youth hero" in the past.

All that remains is the stench of corruption and weakness beneath the glitzy surface.

Ah Cheng couldn't help but wonder, if Minglou hadn't joined the Blue Shirts Club, and hadn't followed the path of being an intelligence officer later, would he have gradually become like Wu Qide in the ups and downs of the bustling shopping mall in Shanghai Bund?

I tried to imagine the slick smile on Wu Qide's slick smile on Minglou's upright face, um... Ah Cheng couldn't imagine it.

Even if the elder brother is fat, he is still a handsome fat man!Absolutely will not grow into a disability like Wu Qide!

Ah Cheng secretly snorted willfully in his heart.

The dishes were served one after another, and Wu's family sells red wine. Naturally, there is no shortage of good wine on the dinner table. They exchanged cups, exchanged greetings, and tested each other. The government did its best, Wu Qide toasted, Ah Cheng returned the compliment, Wu Qide tried Ah Cheng to see if he would like to cooperate and do business like before, Ah Cheng said he was busy with official duties now, and Chief Ming was very strict, so let's talk about the matter of voice.

The two of you came and went for a long time before returning to the topic. Ah Cheng picked up the wine glass, and while toasting Wu Qide again, he pulled Cao Xingping beside him and said, "Brother Wu, I licked my face and called you big brother, where is Xingping?" , you also know, Qiping is my classmate with me, my brother, Xingping is also my classmate, my brother, this time, hey, it is better to resolve enemies than to tie them, Xingping also told me Now, he doesn't blame Brother Ang, I can understand this matter."

In fact, Wu Qide already knew the meaning of Ah Cheng bringing Cao Xingping to this meal. At this time, Ah Cheng made it clear, and first showed that Cao Xingping didn't mind anymore. No matter what Wu Qide had in mind, he had to agree to reconcile with Cao Xingping - If he doesn't agree, don't come back for the meal.

You know, Minglou now plays a very important role in the new government, Wu Qiming can be killed by moving his little finger, and Ah Cheng is now the secretary-general of Minglou's new government office, Wu Qide also heard that Ah Cheng lives in Ming's house now, even more Not to mention many years ago, when Ah Cheng was a kid who had just graduated from school, he vaguely inquired about the "special relationship" between Ah Cheng and Minglou from various sources, all of which made Wu Qide dare not offend anyway Ah Cheng, so he had to show a slightly ashamed expression and said to Ah Cheng: "What did Mr. Ah Cheng say? After finishing speaking, Wu Qide turned to Cao Xingping and said, "Brother Cao, I won't hide it from you until now. In fact... hey, let me put it bluntly. I also obey others. It was the Japanese who asked me to go Trouble with you, who would dare to disobey the Japanese in the current situation in Shanghai... don't say anything, I apologize to you! Apology! I'll do it first as a respect!"

After speaking, Wu Qide drank up the contents of the cup.

On the other side, knowing the "truth" in his heart, Cao Xingping picked up the wine glass with an "embarrassed and somewhat reluctant" face, and finally, under Ah Cheng's persuasive gaze, said reluctantly: "I don't blame Brother Ang , I also know that the Japanese are looking for trouble for me."

Wu Qide laughed with relief, and apologized and toasted again and again, but he was obviously much more relaxed than before. Ah Cheng also picked up the wine glass to smooth things over and ease the lively atmosphere.

In this way, the meal lasted for more than an hour, and the three people who had their own ghosts had a long time to say goodbye after eating.

Because Ah Cheng expressed that he wanted to stay and dance for a while, and Wu Qide had something to do at home, he left first.

Ah Cheng was slightly drunk, staggered, but seemed to have a sense of excitement, and dragged Cao Xingping into the dance floor, wanting to dance.

Cao Xingping looked at Ah Cheng whose cheeks were a little blush. During his breathing, the Kunze aura during pregnancy was hardly audible, but there was still a trace of it, which made people feel refreshed—it was an afternoon in the school library , he sat on a bench, flipping through the ink scent of newly arrived books.

Cao Xingping was a little drunk, and in a trance, he seemed to have returned to his student days. At that time, he was still a young man who read newspapers and those revolutionary "propagandists" who wanted to serve the country with blood. After entering Shanghai, the situation has gone from bad to worse. He, a branch boy, has not yet worried about money and survival because of the decline of the Cao family...

And when Cao Xingping was "drunk", suddenly, two rows of men in black poured into the door of the Great World, and the last two men in black who entered the door stood respectfully by the revolving door as if waiting for him. who.

Outside the gate of the Great World, the window of a parked car was slowly lowered, revealing the icy face of Minglou, an adviser to the new government's economic department and deputy director of the special committee.

A subordinate of No. 76 opened the car door, Minglou got off the car, and stepped into the big world. At this time, the people dancing on the dance floor had already noticed the abnormality, and those with good eyesight had already recognized these people dressed in black. The person was plainclothes No. 76, and as soon as he recognized him, many dancers either retreated cleverly or backed away tremblingly in fright. Withdrew consciously or unconsciously.

Only two people did not push away, one was Ah Cheng who seemed drunk and unaware, and the other was Cao Xingping who was caught by Ah Cheng and couldn't get away from dancing.

The moment he saw Ah Cheng and Cao Xingping, Chief Ming Louming's aura shot up, and the extremely oppressive aura made the people around him retreat further unconsciously, and the people who were exposed to this powerful aura Cao Xingping couldn't help but retreat and began to shiver.

This was not what Cao Xingping wanted, he didn't want to be so embarrassing, but he couldn't restrain his physical reaction—Minglou was really a Qianyuan who was much stronger than him.

At this moment, Cao Xingping, whose legs were trembling, couldn't help but come up with an idea in his heart facing Minglou who was clearly furious - Minglou seemed to be here to catch rape.
