Chapter 32: Living in darkness, giving you light

Song Huanxi collected the three yuan of coffee money returned by Boss Chi and her today's wages. Boss Chi was also generous enough to make up for the milk and fine sugar money.

Song Huanxi knew in her heart that she was trying to take advantage of Lu Xingbang's power.

After bidding farewell to Boss Chi, it was already dark. Song Huanxi walked briskly towards home. As soon as he passed an intersection, he found that all the street lights in front of him were darkened.

This situation often happens. As the port city's economy becomes increasingly prosperous, neighboring factories often fight for power.

Or the circuit may be aging, which is also common.

Song Huanxi quickened his pace, just wanting to walk through this dark neighborhood quickly.

After taking two steps, she saw a red light spot that flickered on and off——

"It's me," Lu Xingbang stood up straight, smoked twice, threw the cigarette butt in his hand on the ground, stepped on his leather shoes, and the last bit of light between the two of them disappeared.

Song Huanxi stopped and glanced behind Lu Xingbang. If she remembered correctly, it should be the exit of the back alley of Chiji Wonton Store.

Whenever there are many restaurants, there is always a back alley for storing garbage and swill. Otherwise, you can walk past the customers carrying the swill and pour it into the front street. After pouring it several times, all the customers will be gone.

This also means that Lu Xingbang should have heard everything about the conversation between her and Boss Chi in the back kitchen just now.

Song Huanxi was silent for a moment, then spoke in a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry."

Lu Xingbang chuckled: "I'm sorry for what? Shouldn't I reveal my identity in front of Boss Chi?"

"Sooner or later he will know. It would be better if he knew earlier, so I don't have to drink the expensive pot water."

Lu Xingbang put his hands in his pockets and walked forward slowly, "Speaking of which, I also want to thank you for adding milk and sugar for me -"

He admitted that he was a little happy when he heard that Boss Chi was going to deduct the money for milk and sugar from Song Huanxi's wages——

He even seriously considered it, why not increase Boss Chi's monthly payment by another half?

Song Huanxi slowly followed his footsteps, her eyes gradually getting used to the darkness in front of her, and through the hazy starlight, she could vaguely see something again.

For example, the tall figure in front is wearing a semi-transparent white shirt. Every time the man takes a step, his shoulders bulge powerfully.

Lu Xingbang stopped, and when Song Huanxi was beside him, he turned his head and looked at the girl: "I heard from Principal Chen that you have been admitted to the preparatory course for law. If you want to study -"

"No," Song Huanxi interrupted him. In the darkness, the girl's eyes shone like cat eyes, "Life is like a mountain, and learning is just a shortcut."

"You can reach the top by taking other paths."

Even if all the street lights were turned off, even if there was no moon tonight, Lu Xingbang still held his breath subconsciously: The girl in front of him was so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at her!

Lu Xingbang's eyes softened and he smiled: "Okay, then I'll watch you climb to the top."

He took another step, "By the way, do you have a good relationship with Principal Chen?"

Song Huanxi nodded: "He is an old friend of my father's, and he has always taken good care of me."

Lu Xingbang suddenly asked: "Is he a prodigal son of Hong Kong? Is he the author of the article "Beauty in London"?

Song Huanxi half-opened her mouth and blinked her eyes hard: she wanted to defend herself but didn't want to lie.

Lu Xingbang suddenly knew something in his mind, and he laughed dumbly: "Just now, he was standing in the back alley, listening to you the whole time."

"When the guests scolded him, he became displeased. When the guests laughed, he showed his face. Besides the author, who else would be so crazy because of other people's comments?"

Song Huanxi: "..."

"However," Lu Xingbang changed the topic: "He must have been very happy in the end. He asked me to tell you that the three yuan refunded by Boss Chi should be kept for your own use. Treat it as the hard-earned money you earned for promoting him.

"

"He also said that the ending you changed is very good and he likes it very much."

Lu Xingbang said thousands of words, but none of them were as good as this last sentence——

Song Huanxi was so excited that her steps became much lighter.

When she came to her senses, she realized that she had reached a street with street lights, and Lu Xingbang stopped in the darkness and said goodbye to her with a smile.

Song Huanxi immediately understood that he was specially waiting for her and accompanying her through that darkness.

She was moved in her heart, but she would not express it to her mouth. She secretly decided that from now on she would keep an eye on Boss Chi and add more milk and sugar to the water in the pot.

Lu Xingbang watched Song Huanxi go away in the darkness, until he disappeared, then turned around and left slowly.

As he walked, the street lights behind him lit up one by one, as if he was a messenger of light.

Dao Scar led his two younger brothers, looked around cautiously, and followed Lu Xingbang not far behind.

Big Liu was a head taller than Scar, but his head was not very bright. He couldn't help but ask: "Boss, why did your boss ask us to turn off all these street lights?"

Of course Dao Scar knew that the main reason was that there was a conflict between them and several of Shenghe's interlocutors.

Brother Xing likes to work steadily, and once he has money in hand, he plans to buy more shops so that the brothers will have someone to rely on in the future.

The fourth uncle is jealous of the way wealthy people in Hong Kong make money and wants to invest in real estate, enter the film industry, and open a department store!

It happened that Brother Xing was brought out by his fourth uncle, so he didn't want to fight openly and openly, so Brother Xing played some dirty tricks, which made his fourth uncle lose his temper.

The relationship between Brother Xing and his fourth uncle is becoming increasingly tense. In order to protect the girl named Song from others knowing that she has an intersection with Brother Xing, Brother Xing did this.

But he didn't bother to explain. He glanced sideways at Da Zhi Liu and said impatiently: "If you knew, wouldn't you be my boss?!"

Da Zhi Liu scratched his head and smiled honestly: "That's right!"

…

Song Huanxi was in a very good mood. Speaking of which, she actually wanted to thank Principal Chen. If she hadn't read London Beauty, she would have been worried about how to find a reason for Xiao Longnu to go down the mountain!

To put it bluntly, although everyone understands that vows made from the mouth are the most unreliable, but for girls, if they refuse to even say a word of the vow, isn't it even more disappointing?

Winnie is like this, and so is Little Dragon Girl!

What makes her most happy is that her adaptation was highly praised by the original author!

Song Huanxi suddenly had a little confidence in writing!

Mr. Wine and Stories, it would be great if you could reply quickly!

…

New Territories, Yuen Long.

In an old house that occupies a large area, the floor of the main room is filled with letters.

The three young men formed a triangle and sorted out the letters one by one.

One of the tall and mighty young men laughed loudly: "Mine, mine, mine again!"

"I told you a long time ago that when looking for a beautiful sister, you have to be as simple and rough as I am!"

The young man next to him wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He looked elegant, handsome and polite. He responded disapprovingly: "Didn't you look at several photos in a row? You said you were so disgusted that you couldn't eat dinner at night?"

Besides the author, who else would be so crazy because of other people’s comments? T-T
