aftershock

Lin Ze still went to the aquarium that day.

After buying five fish, one of his thousand fish accidentally died, and the remaining four were to be given to Gu Lv.

Gu Lu needs more and more fish, but Lin Ze is not fit to ask. He just handed the fish to Gu Lu and continued to act as if nothing had happened.

Peng Yang made an appointment with Xu Jingxing to play golf. Originally, Gu Lu would be invited by Peng Yang on Friday, but unexpectedly Xu Jingxing went out of his way and suddenly sent someone over to make an appointment for Gu Lu's lunch on Thursday.

This weird lunch was abrupt and not formal. As soon as Lin Ze received the call in the morning, he came over first and asked, "There is a meeting at ten o'clock in the morning, and the bid will be opened in the afternoon. This lunch?"

"What time did he have an appointment?"

"11:30, the address is not far away, two streets away."

Gu Lv raised his watch and looked at the time, "It's too late in the morning, the bid opening in the afternoon..."

"The bid opening cannot be changed"

"I know." Gu Lvqu touched the table with his fingers, and asked after thinking for a while, "Where are those fish?"

Lin Ze was taken aback, "It's the garage doorman."

Gu Lv hummed, and Lin Ze suddenly had an idea, and said, "Why don't you...let Mr. Jiang come over for a while?"

Lin Ze naturally knew the rumors that the general manager of the company had already taken up his post, but Jiang Yuan didn't intend to come to work after the incident. If Gu Lu didn't say anything, he couldn't ask specifically. It shouldn't be difficult to just show up.

But Gu Lu shook his head, "No, I'll try my best to come back."

Lin Zemoran, the legal person and legal representative, the chairman and the general manager have different positions. He has been exposed to these since he entered the company, and it has always been an accident. In Jianghe, most people know that Gu Lv is the chairman , I also know that there is a named general manager.But few people know that the legal person of the company is the nominal general manager, while their chairman is only the legal representative.

Xu Jingxing's lunch meeting with Gu Lu was on the second floor of an old restaurant in the downtown area. When Gu Lu got off the car, he saw two men in black standing at the entrance, one on each side. They seemed casual, but they all had Xu Jingxing's style .

Xu Jingxing was the only person sitting in the huge private room of the hotel. He drank the barley tea provided free of charge in the hotel, and when he heard the door knocking, he turned his head. The tough and resolute face was still familiar, but the way he smiled was deliberately concealed. Still really convinced of his old age, he had a sense of disobedience with kindness and kindness. This inexplicable emotion made Gu Lv's footsteps pause for a while, and he was a little surprised when he approached. He had never seen it for many years. The perpetrator in the worst and best memory of the segment has already turned gray.

As soon as Xu Jingxing raised his hand, Gu Lv sat down opposite him. The young and delicate mixed-race boy had grown into a tall and slender young man with the same face as the people of the country. The iconic eye color of double mist blue and deep.

"Can I still call you Heine?"

"Uncle Xu." Gu Lu was noncommittal and nodded slightly at him.

Deep ripples appeared in the corners of Xu Jingxing's eyes, "Little devil, you have grown up."

Gu Lv also smiled, saw the bracelet on his wrist, and asked softly, "Uncle Xu believes in Buddhism?"

"Be free and have nothing to do, ask for comfort."

Gu Lv nodded, he raised his hand to pour tea for himself, Xu Jingxing saw that his demeanor was calm and not impatient, he twisted the string of sandalwood Buddhist beads on his wrist for two rounds before opening his mouth again, "I heard you want to find me , for Xu Xuan?."

"That's right, I would like to thank Uncle Xu for taking care of him for many years. If Uncle Xu was not too busy, we should have talked about this ten years ago."

Hearing that he was too busy, Xu Jingxing's smile faded, "I haven't been back for many years, so I can't really take care of him, following someone like me..." He turned his eyes, and the sunlight cast on Gu Lv's side from the window It can be said to be kind, it illuminated him dazzlingly and deeply, and his demeanor was outstanding. Xu Jingxing looked away, and kept stroking the wooden beads on his wrist with his fingers, with some insincere regret and self-blame in his tone, "Follow me like this Man, it's really ruined."

"Uncle Xu hasn't returned for many years, it's too serious."

"But Liang Ji taught you well." Xu Jingxing paused after speaking, "Perhaps Gu Xu taught you well."

Hearing the name again, Gu Lv just sipped the tea soup with the silence in his eyes. After a moment of silence in the room, Gu Lv said, "I'm Jiang Yuan, I hope Uncle Xu doesn't have to hide from me that Liang Ji has let go."

"What's the relationship between you and Jiang Yuan?"

"Uncle Xu is very clear."

Xu Jingxing sighed, he picked up the dark file bag on the chair beside him and put it under his palm, with a look on his face that couldn't be described as a smile or a helpless expression, "The Xu family is not easy to stay, Liang Ji refuses to accept Xu Xuan, others They all thought he was my own son, he couldn't move his legs, and he was bullied a lot in the open and in the dark. I couldn't go back to Xu's house all these years. My elder brother raised Xu Xuan and wanted to restrain me. You have seen Xu Sheng, too. In the Xu family, he is Xu Xuan's brother, but they hate him very much for his hypocrisy, no matter what happens from now on, you should know that he is indeed your real brother."

"What a brother can do for him has already been done."

Xu Jingxing shook his head after hearing this, "It can't be calculated like this."

"So I still hope he hasn't done anything that would make him a little brother."

Xu Jingxing's complexion did not change, but his eyes showed the helplessness after the vicissitudes of life, "Haine, if you are too obsessed with the past, you will not be able to live a good life in the present. In fact, Xu Xuan has never followed me, but he looks like me."

He moved the paper bag around, and just arrived at Gu Lv's hand, "These are just some cases I have handled. If there is a chance in the future, Jiang Yuan, I would like to see him."

Gu Lv took the file bag, and his gaze stayed on it without moving, "I don't need to see you anymore."

"how"

"People who have met Uncle Xu are not lucky."

Gu Lu didn't make a joke, Xu Jingxing was taken aback for a moment, instead of being angry, he laughed a few times and said, "Yes, that's right."

"Good one bad luck!"

He continued, "Does Hein know why I returned to China?"

"Engagement banquet?"

"What is that?" Xu Jingxing's eyes were gloomy and desolate, and he said in a deep voice, "After returning to China this time, next time you come back, you will see my ashes or prison cell. I am old and I still have to apologize for the old things. Come back and see Just look at you, that's all."

"You are good-looking, and you know that he teaches you well, so take a look for him, so that's all."

"Thank you, Uncle Xu."

Xu Jingxing looked at the file bag that Gu Lu had accepted and then raised his hand to look at his watch, as if he wanted to say goodbye, he calmly sipped his tea, "Haine, why don't you ask me why I believe in Buddhism."

Gu Lv looked at the Buddha string in his hand, and it didn't do what he wished, "Why do you ask?"

"Uncle Xu wants to hear your question."

"Why do you believe in Buddhism?"

"For repentance."

Gu Lv smiled knowingly, this time it was a genuine smile, as if his words were ridiculous, or as if he simply thought it was meaningless, "No one needs you to repent."

"You are right. I need to repent and believe in the Buddha, but the Buddha taught me to break the attachment. Do you know how to break the attachment?"

"I don't know"

"Break the attachment with persistence, so I am doomed to wander all my life, with no place to rely on and nowhere to stop"

"Is this believing in Buddhism?"

Xu Jingxing laughed at himself again, "How can a person who doesn't believe in ghosts believe in Buddha?"

The author has something to say:

(Explain, I’m afraid you think what I wrote is shit, although maybe, but I don’t want to hear it or not.)

Anyone who has seen Tendency to Light knows that Xu Jingxing indirectly killed Gu Xu. As a person who admired Xiao Gu, Xu Jingxing would naturally feel guilty. After his death, Xu Jingxing did not rely on him. He lacked the right to follow Gu Xu like Jiang Chonglu. Identity, but he needs faith to transfer and live.But Xu Jingxing is a member of the underworld, his obsession is only to feel guilty about Xiao Gu, he only believes in Buddhism when he feels guilty, other times he should be as bad as he can be. )
