if you are still there

Fu Dongli did not expect to meet Ding Xu here. He stood up to say hello, and the people next to him followed him. It was originally a gathering of two groups of people to welcome the Fu family brothers. Ding Xu's body.

Xi Yang, who was seated at the top, asked, "Sun Mu, who is this?"

Sun Mu introduced them and said, "This is my cousin, Ding Xu, who graduated from university this year, so I'll bring him out to meet everyone."

Fu Er smiled and said: "It's a coincidence, Ding Xu, you have graduated from college in a blink of an eye, Dongli is not as good as you, and you are still in the army." He pointed to Ding Xu, and said: "This is me My brother’s classmates, I never expected to meet them here.” He was speaking politely, and he really didn’t expect that he would get in touch with the Ding family in the capital.

Fu Dongli couldn't hear the twists and turns of these people, so he came over enthusiastically with his wine glass and sat down next to Ding Xu. Someone wanted to pour red wine for Ding Xu, and he smiled when the bottle was hanging over the glass Said: "Your brother said you can't drink alcohol, it doesn't matter if you drink something red?"

Before Ding Xu replied, Fu Dongli pushed the man's wine bottle away, a little unhappy: "Aren't red wine and white wine both wine? Ding Xu is allergic to alcohol, not that he can't drink, but he can't touch it at all." Alcohol, some mineral water."

Fu Dongli was so protective of this guest who came from afar, that person was too embarrassed to try to persuade him, and asked the waiter to open a bottle of soda to make do with it.

Those people at the wine table greeted Ding Xu, and then continued to warm up with Sun Mu, and the newcomer Fu Er soon became lively.Although Fu Er is a newcomer, he is eloquent and is very good at invigorating the atmosphere. He got a lot of information in just a few words, and when others asked him, he took it with a joke, and he did everything without leaking.

Fu Dongli looks similar to Ding Xu, he was forced out by his elder brother at home, he is not interested in these things, his second elder brother is good at dancing, so he is happy to be on the sidelines as a display, just bow his head and talk to Ding Xu say.

Fu Dongli was still a little excited at the moment, and asked in a low voice: "Hey Ding Xu, you've already graduated from college, have you skipped a grade? I couldn't contact you before, but I'm so worried, you seem to disappear now." of."

It was the busiest period of time before and after Ding Xu's university, and also the most isolated and helpless time. At that time, besides Xiao Liangwen, only Ding Hao could contact him.

He was silent for a while.

Fu Dongli also remembered the incident at Ding Xu's house, patted himself on the head and apologized to him in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I was so happy to see you that I forgot...uh, where is your university?" read?"

Ding Xu said: "S is big."

Fu Dongli showed envious eyes, and said with emotion: "It's great, I haven't been to the city for a long time, you don't know, my brother sent me to the army, a very remote place, when I first went there was a plateau The reaction...was horrible."

Ding Xu glanced at him, Fu Dongli still had the same face of a young man who didn't know his worries, with a heroic vigor, a very pleasing young man, his skin was tanned a little, and he looked very healthy .I didn't see that I was abused, but my body became stronger and taller.

Fu Dongli complained to Ding Xu in a low voice, Ding Xu listened for a while and asked, "Is your second brother willing to throw you into the army?"

Fu Dongli curled his lips, "My elder brother let me go, but my second elder brother was so anxious, there's nothing I can do." He might have drank some wine just now, but now he was a little dizzy, so he lowered his voice and told Ding Xu everything, "Let me tell you, in our family, my elder brother is the head of the family. He has the final say, and my parents can't help me. My second brother wanted me to pretend to be sick to escape the military inspection, but my elder brother I know, drink, I can’t get out of bed for two days after being beaten..."

Ding Xu blinked his eyes, and glanced at Fu Er, who was sitting in the guest of honor seat, chatting and laughing happily with everyone. He couldn't think of the appearance of this beaten man, and what Fu Dongli meant was from a few years ago. At that time, it was okay for Fu Dongli to be beaten when he was an adult, so why did Fu Er have such a shameful time?

"My elder brother beat me up too, and sent him there directly. No one came to see me in the first year. If I had known, I would have followed my second elder brother's advice to enter the military academy. I wouldn't have experienced such a miserable experience from the bottom..." Fu Dongli Still chanting, for the first time, he also uttered a few bad things about Boss Fu, Fu Dongli muttered, Fu Er was already a little suspicious, looking over with a frown, Ding Xu hurriedly poured him a glass of water and stuffed it in his hand , replaced the wine glass and put it on his side, said: "You drank too much, drink some water to sober up."

Their voices have been kept low, and the people next to them can only hear a few words, but they can't guess what Fu Dongli is talking about. Fu Erli is far away, and he can't hear him anymore. Seeing Fu Dongli changing the water there Sitting and drinking, he also felt relieved, and no longer cared about his younger brother.

After a few drinks, everyone relaxed a bit, and the things they talked about gradually involved some inside information.

Ding Xu substituted tea for wine by himself, and while dealing with Fu Dongli, he listened to those people chatting.

These people were talking about the Panax notoginseng medicinal material business in Yunnan. Some of them seemed to have gone to Yunnan for investigation, and they were trying to persuade others, "The price was unstable a few years ago, and now it has fallen to the lowest level. Now it happens to be a It’s a good time, buy low and sell high! Everyone understands this truth, but few actually make a sale, and it’s just a bargain for us, so this business can be done.”

"It's really like this. I went to see it. The retail investors over there are gathering, and they are gradually transitioning to large households to plant. This way, the output can be stabilized, and the quality is also top-notch. It's really a good deal." Someone echoed, and was very moved by the words.

Ding Xu's investment is mainly in jade and calligraphy and painting. The money Xiao Liangwen put in him has increased by about [-]%, and he is not too short of money now.But these people said, he also listened, and didn't talk much.He had never been to the capital in his previous life, and naturally he had never been in contact with Sun Mu's circle, so it would be beneficial and harmless to listen to more inside information.

"You dare to intervene in things on the border of Yunnan, is it within your reach?" A person sitting opposite poured cold water, lit a cigarette and smoked a cigarette, and said impatiently, "If you want to get a vote, you have to sell it first. Well, among other things, you can't handle the dozens of hills in Wenshan County."

The person who spoke was a little hesitant, and said with a sneer: "Let's go together and look for connections, and the family is also a guarantor. We can always do something."

"Don't ask me, I'm not from the military department, so I don't understand these things. Hey, you went there by yourself, didn't you see how difficult it is?" Some people laughed.

Fu Er kept raising his eyebrows and listening without interjecting. He was very polite as a foreign guest, and he didn't look aggressive at all.

During the period, someone mentioned Pan Feng, who was half-joking and half-seriously said: "If this person can be brought in, the vote will be halved."

The other people drank too much and said with their tongues out: "Pull it down, Pan Feng comes in, and we are destined to follow the soup!"

"It's not enough to drink soup. It's good to invest some money and get dividends."

……

Ding Xu's phone vibrated, he looked down at the message, it was from Xiao Liangwen, and asked him what he was doing.

Ding Xu replied: eat out.

Xiao Liangwen's message soon arrived again, with a bit more words than usual: Coincidentally, I'm also eating out with Team Pan, where are you?

Ding Xu was a little surprised. This person usually doesn't talk so much, but he still replied with the name of his restaurant.

Xiao Liangwen quickly replied: Team Pan also chose this restaurant.

The strange feeling in Ding Xu's heart became more and more serious. Before he could type a few text messages, he heard someone knocking on the door. Pan Feng's voice came over, and he said with a smile: "Yo, they are all here , I heard the front desk said that you are having a party here, so I came here to join in the fun."

Ding Xu's phone also vibrated at the same time, and the latest text message was sent: Is it convenient for me and Team Pan to come here together?

When Ding Xu saw this, his eyebrows twitched and he looked up. Wasn't it Xiao Liangwen who was following Pan Feng?With a straight face and an expressionless face, if it wasn't for putting his hands in his pockets and pausing his eyes before moving away when he saw him, Ding Xu would have wondered if this person was texting him just now.

"There are so many people," Pan Feng glanced around, with one hand in his pocket, his casual clothes stretched out his style, and he felt oppressive standing there. "Why didn't the big guys call me out when they came out, and there are new friends, Xi Yang, they don't behave properly."

Xi Yang also knew Pan Feng, this person was a few years older than them, and he was often dealt with by Pan Feng when he was a child, and now he still couldn't help the calf cramps when he saw him, he stood up and smiled and said: " Nothing, brother Pan is very busy, we didn't know you were back, otherwise we would definitely invite you..." He said, and introduced the Fu family brothers to Pan Feng, "This is Fu Dongzhe, from X province , from Director Fu’s house. This is his younger brother Fu Dongli, the two of them just arrived yesterday, hehe, it’s a coincidence that we came to have dinner and get to know each other.”

Pan Feng shook hands with them, focusing on the people next to them, staring at Ding Xu and the others, and said with a smile, "This is it?"

Xi Yang said: "This is Sun Mu, and his cousin Ding Xu, who belongs to Director Ding's family."

Pan Feng came over to say hello again, it was very formal, Ding Xu shook hands with him was fine, Xiao Liangwen followed closely, and Ding Xu quickly let go of his hand, but it didn't prevent Xiao Liangwen from secretly lightening his hand. Squeezed his hand lightly, "Xiao Liangwen."

Ding Xu withdrew his hand, the feeling in the palm of his hand was still there, and he heard Xiao Liangwen laugh standing opposite him.

Pan Feng introduced it to everyone again, patted Xiao Liangwen on the shoulder and said proudly: "This is my deputy team. I am on vacation, so I came with you."

The corner of Sun Mu's mouth twitched, which was obviously different from what Xiao Liangwen said yesterday, and he couldn't help asking: "Isn't it, isn't he retired?"

Pan Feng sat down next to Sun Mu, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Oh, you know him? It's already very powerful to find out the news at this stage. I can't say more. Which agency department doesn't have a point?" It's door-to-door."

After he said this, the others didn't want to ask too many questions, but seeing Xiao Liangwen was a little uncertain about the origin of this person, they became a little cautious for a while.

Seeing Pan Feng sit down, Xiao Liangwen also sat next to Ding Xu, taking up Sun Mu's original seat. Sun Mu had no choice but to get up by himself and find another seat.

Pan Feng showed enthusiasm towards Sun Mu, and greeted him to come to his side, intending to talk to him. When the two of them chatted, Sun Mu couldn't care about Ding Xu. At his level, Pan Feng asked a few words. Using the elders in the family to oppress him, he couldn't stand the question.

"Hey, Sun Yibin is your uncle, he and I are still classmates!"

"You know Pang Yue too? Coincidentally, she is also somewhat related to my mother's family. I am older, and she calls me uncle. What do you call her?"

……

And so on, Sun Mu was sweating when he was asked, but he had to say that these people were either relatives and elders in the family, or instructors and leaders in the school, and there was no way to avoid them.

After chatting for less than 10 minutes, Sun Mu felt that he had been taken advantage of. He and Pan Feng were already three generations apart.

Xiao Liangwen saw the red wine glass in front of Ding Xu, frowned and wanted to take it away to pour water for Ding Xu, but Ding Xu avoided it and said, "Thank you, no need."

Xiao Liangwen looked at him and said very seriously: "You can't drink."

Ding Xu put the wine glass aside and explained to him: "It's not mine, it's his."

Fu Dongli took it over, and grinned with white teeth: "Mine, I'm sorry. Xiao Liangwen, right? We met again, do you remember me? We haven't seen each other for several years. I almost didn't recognize you when you just came in." out of you."

Xiao Liangwen didn't recognize Fu Dongli either. He focused all his attention on Ding Xu. Only then did he see Fu Dongli. He greeted Fu Dongli politely and didn't talk much. The indifference in his eyes was obvious.

Fu Dongli was not familiar with him, only knew that he was Ding Xu's friend, and he talked to Ding Xu about the topic just now in a low voice, it was all about the time when he was studying in province X, and he also mentioned that time when he went fishing on the pier , Fu Dongli said with a smile: "Ding Xu, you like to catch crabs, don't you? Let's go again next time. Second brother's villa over there has been soundproofed, so I won't scare you this time, haha."

Before Ding Xu could answer, he felt someone put his hand on his lap, and couldn't help but sit up straight.

Fu Dongli didn't know about these little tricks, and he still asked Ding Xu stubbornly: "I'm ready, you can just go, will you go?"

Ding Xu put his hand down calmly, grabbed Xiao Liangwen's hand and wanted to move it, but the other party was so strong that he didn't intend to move it. Instead, he rubbed it back and forth as if threatening, and the hair on Ding Xu's arm exploded. Woke up.

"I..." Ding Xu cleared his throat, "Let's not go, I have to work as an intern after graduation, I'm very busy. Don't you want to go back to the army too?"

Fu Dongli's eyes were blurred, he was stunned for a while before he remembered, and said: "Yes, I would have forgotten if you didn't tell me, I thought there was still summer vacation. Ding Xu, you don't know, I haven't had a vacation for a long time, This time I was able to come here because my second brother asked me for the annual leave. I didn’t dare to go home, so I came here directly. My elder brother doesn’t know yet. I’ve been having nightmares these days, and all I dream about are my elder brother..."

Ding Xu pushed the water glass towards his hand and said, "You drank too much."

Xiao Liangwen bowed his head to eat without making a sound. He looked like a well-behaved soldier, indifferent and taciturn, and strangers were not allowed to enter.But the hand under the tablecloth was completely different from what appeared on the surface, and now it had moved up to Ding Xu's leg.

Without increasing the weight, the scorching heat from the palm alone was enough to make Ding Xu restless.
