"I haven't heard from you for several years.
I thought you had forgotten me, haha."
Lingqian's voice appeared on the other end of my phone after I waited for a while.
I have been silent for several years, but that doesn't mean I don't know anything about things in Jianghu. otbnkotgt In the past, when people mentioned Lingqian, the most common thing people said was that she was a person from Yuyang and Zouyin.
Nowadays, people in the world will respectfully call her the head of the Ling family.
"If I didn't need help, I wouldn't have called you.
You are a busy person now and are different from a wanderer like me."
I said smoothly.
"Are you and I so alienated now?"
Lingqian's voice sank slightly, "Haha.
Tell me, how can I help you?"
"I want to talk to Haoran, but I don't have his contact information, so" she said before I finished speaking: "It turns out you're not asking for my help.
You're asking for Haoran.
Just wait.
I'll call you in five minutes.
Ask him to call you.
Is there anything else he can help you with?"
Her voice sounded a little rushed, maybe she was about to have a meeting and didn't want to delay.
"No, take care of yourself."
It always feels like they haven’t seen each other for several years, and there seems to be a barrier between them.
People are always changing.
Lingqian when he was just starting out, Lingqian who was trapped in the loneliness of the Ling family, Lingqian who became the head of the Ling family with radiance, All are different.
The phone over there hung up.
I put down the receiver and lit a cigarette.
The butler next to me came over and asked, "Would you like a drink?"
"Okay, what kind of wine do you have?"
I asked, biting the cigarette butt.
"Madam has a bottle of 1985 Bordeaux red wine.
I'll get it for you."
Grape wine luminous cup.
Leaning against the wall, the sky outside was gloomy and light rain was gradually falling.
I waited for Haoran's call.
At this moment, I feel a little lonely.
When I was young, I didn't understand the meaning of loneliness.
At that time, I kept talking about how depressed I was all day long, shouting that the whole world didn't understand me, but it wasn't until I was this age that I found it funny.
Fatty and Yuan Feng got married and had a child, Luo Qiong was in a drug rehabilitation center, and his friends went their separate ways.
Now even if you want to have a drink at Jufu Restaurant, you may not be able to get someone there.
Everyone has gone their own way.
The older you get, the more you will find that your surroundings are empty in the end.
"Ding bell" I was blowing out smoke rings.
The phone next to me suddenly rang.
I quickly picked up the phone, and a deep voice came from the receiver.
"Mortal, you're not dead yet."
Haoran's voice seemed slightly thicker than a few years ago, but the tone of his voice that called me "mortal" didn't change as soon as he opened his mouth, and that feeling of pride came over him.
"Huh, you really haven't changed."

I originally wanted to say hello since I was asking him for help, but as soon as I heard this mortal sentence, my attitude immediately changed.
"Lingqian said you were looking for me, what's the matter?
As a mortal, what do you want me to do for you?"
he said arrogantly.
"Your Haotian family has been fighting fiercely among you recently.
In the past few years, everyone in the world said that you would succeed as the head of the family, but the trend seems to have changed in recent years.
You don't seem to be as popular as you used to be."
I said coldly.
He said coldly, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
"Mortal, if you just call me to ridicule me, then I won't accompany you.
You outsiders don't need to know about our Haotian family."
He was about to hang up the phone as he spoke.
I smiled and said, "Of course not.
Just to mock you , I want to ask you something.
Hao Zuoran, do you know this person?"
I reported Jiang Shan's father's name.
Hao Ran was silent for a moment and then said, "I'm not familiar with this name.
I can check it out for you. , is a member of our Haotian family."
"Yes.
It's just a small person from the side family.
You can check it for me.
It's best to find out his family background.
In addition, there is something else I want to ask you.
Is there anyone in your department who has been in Hong Kong recently?"
I will The topic went deeper, and Haoran did not answer directly.
Instead, he asked me: "Why do you ask this?"
"You and I are old acquaintances, and I won't hide it from you.
Someone from your Haotian family kidnapped my mother.
I'm investigating this matter now.
If I'm not wrong, the person behind the kidnapping should be Haotian, who is competing with you.
A candidate for the position of head of the Tian family.
My mother is considered a financial financier.
Your Haotian family targeted her and other financial financiers in Hong Kong.
My mother was the first one to be stabbed."
I said truthfully.
"Hong Kong" Hearing Haoran's tone, he seemed to know something, but he didn't seem to want to say it directly.
"Haoran, my mother has been kidnapped.
If necessary, I will even kill your Haotian family directly.
You don't want the family headquarters to cause me such trouble, what's more, if the mastermind behind the scenes is really If I help you get rid of someone who competes with you for the position of head of the family, wouldn't it be beneficial to you?"
"Ba Xiaoshan, if your mother is really kidnapped by someone from our Haotian family, I will find out.
Give me three days, and I will let your mother come back safe and sound after three days."
This result made I was a little surprised.
I originally just wanted to get some information from him and find out which member of the Haotian family arrested my mother, but I heard what Haoran meant.
He wanted to intervene directly to settle the matter, but he actually got an unexpected reward I smiled and said, "Three days?"
"Only three days."

"Okay, then I will wait for you for three days.
If my mother does not come back in three days, you must tell me who in your Haotian family is behind this."
After saying that, we did not exchange greetings and hung up.
Got the phone.
The butler stood nearby.
It was as if he hadn't heard the call.
After I finished the call, he said, "The wine has been poured.
I'm almost awake."
I turned around and saw the red liquid in the goblet.
I smoked a cigarette and said, "It seems that the relationship between this man and Haoran is extraordinary."
With Haoran's promise, these three days became much easier for me.
There was no investigation.
I took a car and looked around in Hong Kong.
After the handover in 1997, more and more mainland people visited and shopped in Hong Kong.
Because Hong Kong is a free trade port with zero tariffs, shopping here is much cheaper than in the mainland.
Especially many women's luxuries, cosmetics and the like.
Bags for wealthy women cost tens of thousands each.
In China, this is the annual income of a working-class person.
In my opinion, such luxury bags are not very convenient.
A few rich ladies even taught me that the same bag, if you buy it for tens of thousands, will last for several years, but if you buy it for tens of yuan, it will break after half a year, and it still costs tens of thousands.
I smiled bitterly at that time.
Whose bag broke after half a year of use?
I really thought that poor people are blind.
Besides, your bags worth tens of thousands are used to store cosmetics and show off, while our bags worth tens of dollars are for Resistant to heavy objects, can do the same "Where are you planning to go tomorrow?"
the wealthy woman asked during dinner.
I shook my head and said, "The results should be available tomorrow.
I'll just stay at home."
"But it's strange to say that there were always some strange things happening near our bosses' companies or homes in the past, but these strange things have disappeared recently.
It seems very peaceful, maybe because of the help of your friend, this matter, It will probably end by tomorrow.
But I asked you before, if your mother.
She is old and retired, are you ready to take over her company?"
The wealthy woman changed the topic again as she spoke.
I smiled and said, "No, I am a cosmopolitan person and am not a boss.
As for her, how can she Arranging my own company has nothing to do with me.
I’m not greedy for her money, and money doesn’t mean much to me.”
I put down my chopsticks, stood up and said "use it slowly" and was about to leave, but after turning around, I felt like a pair of eyes were staring at me.
I subconsciously turned back and glanced out the window, but there was no one outside.
None.
"What's wrong?"
asked the wealthy woman.
"It's okay, you eat slowly, I'll go up."
I smiled and shook my head.
It seemed that I would not be calm tonight
