The years when I was an old man

The casino at night is especially lively.

When I walked out of the venue and appeared at the door.

Secretary Li was sitting in the car, with a cigarette in one hand, leaning out of the car window.

Seeing me coming out, he immediately pressed the horn.

He was given 20 chips today, which is enough for his salary for several years. Secretary Li was naturally very excited.

Just as I was about to go there, I suddenly heard someone calling my name from the side.

"Boss Niu!"

Looking back, Qi Lan was standing there alone under the flashing neon lights at the door.

The colorful lights elongated her shadow.

Although Qi Lan looks more confident and beautiful than before.

I don't know why, but I can always feel an indescribable loneliness amidst her calm charm.

"Have you returned yet?"

I walked over immediately and asked her a question.

"No, I want to see you again and have a few words with you!"

Under the light, Qi Lan smiled gently.

"It's as if you'll never see me again..."

Before the next words could be spoken, Qi Lan immediately interrupted me and said angrily:

"Don't talk nonsense, it's unlucky!"

Qi Lan's tender gaze made my heart skip a beat.

If it wasn't for Yi Rongcheng's current status, I would really like to continue our unfinished relationship with her on this different night.

No way, I can only turn to the topic and ask:

"Zou Tiansheng and Huang Ze were so rampant just now, could Miss Cen have no way to deal with them?"

My question made Qi Lan sigh silently.

She shook her head and explained:

"There are many ways. Ms. Cen can also contact wz in those places in northern Myanmar. It's just that since the return in 99, the Cen family has begun to clean up. Miss Cen doesn't want to use quack tricks to solve these things..."

"Washing white?"

I asked a question back.

In my heart, the Cen family is a family that made its fortune by gambling.How could it be possible to say that whitewashing is whitewashing?

Qi Lan also saw my doubts, and immediately said:

"Actually, I was also puzzled at the time. I had an in-depth chat with Ms. Cen, and it was an eye-opener. Her original words were that after the reunification, everything in Haojiang will be on par with the mainland. There will be no such incidents, The mainland may allow our industry to continue. Once something messy happens, we may be the first move from the mainland to Haojiang. Therefore, Ms. Cen now requires us to strictly implement everything a formal enterprise... "

I listened quietly, feeling quite emotional in my heart.

Cen Yalun looked like a pampered young lady, but her appearance was no less than that of Fang Chukai.

"In addition, the sixth day. Ms. Cen also let me remind you. The gambling business in Haojiang will face a reshuffle of the competition. The mainland will be even worse. All underground black gambling will definitely suffer from the deadliest of the authorities. The blow. She asked me to advise you to make plans early and leave yourself a way out..."

Fang Chukai also said this to me recently.

It seems that the two interpretations of the above are almost the same.

I nodded and asked:

"Where's Ma Murong? How did he leave?"

Qi Lan didn't seem to want to mention him too much, but she still said:

"He drank alcohol at night and ate something bad. He seemed to have some allergies, so he went to the hospital..."

No wonder the stick bark suddenly disappeared.

"Okay, I won't say much more. There are too many people, please make sure. I will be in Yundian for a few days, let's find time to talk..."

With rippling eyes, Qi Lan smiled sweetly at me.

Looking at her back, especially the skirt swinging back and forth by the night wind.

At this moment, I seem to understand.

Everything I have for this woman has long been engraved in the deepest part of my heart.

I sighed, put on a dejected look, and got into Secretary Li's car directly.

Seeing me like this, Secretary Li was a little puzzled and asked:

"Xiao Niu, you have won so much money, why are you listless!"

I glanced at Secretary Li, shook my head angrily and said:

"Money? If I win, it's not money, it's paper!"

"Ah? What's wrong?"

Secretary Li asked curiously.

"That Liu guy didn't give me any money at all. He said he didn't have any money now, so I'll talk about it tomorrow. It's clear that I don't want to give it. Damn, I've been to too many underground venues in the Mainland, and I haven't seen him like this ..."

Saying that, I leaned on the backrest angrily.

But I was thinking in my heart, if Secretary Li could help, the effect would be better.

But if he pretends to be confused, then I'll offer to bring it up.

Secretary Li frowned and started the car.

Seeing that he was silent for a long time, I suddenly turned around and asked him:

"Brother Li, is there any way to help me exchange this money back, don't worry, I'm not a stingy person. As long as you can help, I will definitely satisfy Brother Li..."

Secretary Li didn't speak, but looked ahead quietly.

When he reached the red light, he didn't step on the brakes, and drove directly there.

"red light!"

I hurriedly reminded one.

Secretary Li acted like nothing happened, and said to me:

"Xiao Niu, do you know why I dared to run a red light and still not panic at all?"

I shook my head.

"It's all because of the white bureau. I'm the secretary of the white bureau. In other words, I'm just pretending to be a tiger. If you want to do this, you have to find the real tiger behind the fox..."
