Chapter 525: The Millennium

What he said is to know the rules and abide by the law.

He put rules before the law, and its connotation is self-evident.

The order of the Wei Dynasty collapsed, and a new order began anew.

Secondly, he gave a deadline of years.

In other words, Yokogawa will be in a period of severe crackdown for a period of time a year ago. During this period, he does not want us to cause trouble.

But this specific date makes me wonder.

Wang Peng didn't give me a specific date, so why did he set a specific time?

There is another important point. He mentioned the words "newcomer" and "returner".

I was the new one in his words, and the one who had returned, I think, was the rickety-headed man sitting diagonally across from me.

Is it possible that that guy was once the number one figure in Yokogawa?

"I understand, Xia Bureau, don't worry, I keep my integrity very well." Dai Shanhe smiled flatteringly at Xia Dong and also made a joke.

"Xia Ju, I'm just here to do business in Henghe. I'm worried that others will mess with me, and I dare to cause trouble for others."

I smiled and gave this answer.

I don't plan to draw anyone's attention until I completely take over Hong Bin's business and Yokogawa's crackdown is over.

If you haven't finished eating your own bowl, taking someone else's job will only cause trouble.

Xia Dong's sharp eyes glanced at my face, and he tapped the armrest of the seat with his fingers: "It's okay to do business. If you do business, just do business safely. Don't go and kill me."

Xia Dong's words had a profound meaning, but at that time, my attention was completely attracted by the four words "beat, kill, kill, kill" and I ignored the previous point.

"Hui'er, remember to convey to Li San what I said today. When you come back, just calm down."

Suddenly, Xia Dong changed the subject and aimed at the rickety man: "Tell me something again, let the matter of old rotten millet go."

"I will convey it to you." The rickety man, known as Hui'er, smiled kindly and nodded in agreement.

I relaxed my frown and forced myself to appear calm.

But an unpleasant feeling was still stirring in my heart.

Li San, Xia Dong mentioned Li San just now.

Henghe Jianghu, the third son of the Li family who has returned from an outing, could he be anyone other than Nezha from the limerick?

Nezha is back? At such a critical juncture, if he says he doesn’t want to take a piece of Henghe’s pie, no one would believe it!

The reason why Xia Dong called us over was very simple. He just conveyed a few concise sentences.

This makes me feel a little baffled. The bullshit to me makes no difference whether it is said on the phone or not.

But Xia Dong is the leader of the official government, and he will not make random mistakes. When the three of us get together, there must be some deeper meaning.

After walking out of the Henghe County Bureau, my people were waiting downstairs early.

Yokogawa is not my territory yet, there are enemies everywhere, so I still have to be careful wherever I go.

Be careful when sailing a thousand-year-old ship.

Walking out with me were Dai Shanhe and the rickety man named Hui'er.

Ever since I entered Xia Dong's office, Hui'er had been taciturn and only said one sentence.

I also simply think that he is just a representative sent by Nezha's men, a small role.

Just as I was about to get in the car and leave, Hui'er's cold voice came from behind me.

"Li Yanqiu."

When someone called my name, I subconsciously turned around and looked at Hui'er with doubtful eyes, waiting for him to speak.

Their eyes met for two seconds, and the corners of Hui'er's mouth curved in a sinister way. When his lips moved, his yellowed tiger teeth could still be vaguely seen.

"Li Yanqiu, it was you who crippled Dachao. On the first day I was released from prison, Dachao yelled at me to avenge him. I have tried my best and never had a second thought in these years. I, as the elder brother, have to avenge this revenge.

.”

Hui'er's tone was helpless.

His attitude is extremely determined. I know that he will definitely seek revenge on me!

Because he is not just Hui'er, he is Dachao's eldest brother, and he also has a nickname, Maodou!

‘If you dare to touch me, you will be dead. My eldest brother’s name is Maodou!’ Dachao’s threat seemed to still be lingering in my ears.

The thin man in front of me, with a stooped body like a shrimp, turned out to be Edamame.

"Modou, if I dare to destroy you, I won't be afraid of retaliation. I won't scare anyone."

While looking into each other's eyes, I said this slowly and heavily.

Maodou made me feel dangerous. This feeling of danger is different from the sense of crisis when facing people like Liu Ye, Hu Shaoqing, Hong Bin, and Tiger.

This feeling of danger is like the cold danger you feel when you are stalked by a thief, or when a mouse enters your home but you cannot find its location.

I once experienced this feeling of danger from a person named Mouse!

.........

Today is a special day.

Because today is December 31, 1999, and it is also the last day of 1999.

When the clock strikes midnight tonight, the twentieth century will pass and usher in a new twenty-first century.

This cross-century night has naturally become a passionate romantic destination pursued by young lovers.

Holding Yan Nini’s hand, we strolled along the bustling pedestrian streets of our city.

There are lots of cars and people, with various food stalls on both sides, and a wide road in the middle filled with pedestrians.

There were couples, friends, and families out for a walk.

The prosperity of the city is vividly displayed.

The New Year's Eve of the new millennium is far more grand, grand and lively than in previous years.

It seems as if the entire city is welcoming the new millennium at midnight.

This night, we did not choose to go to a high-end restaurant, go to a luxurious hotel, or arrange a romantic world for two.

Like every couple in the crowd, we are waiting for the final countdown with excitement, excitement and joy.

"Qiu, do you know what the love of the century is?"

Suddenly, with a light palm, Yan Nini took out her hand, stepped in front of me, and looked into my eyes.

She had her hands behind her back, her chin raised, her expression was shy, her mouth was pursed in a smile, her toes were slightly raised, and her hair on her forehead was blowing in the wind.

At this moment, the noise around him, the people moving around, and time seemed to stand still.

In my world, there is only Yan Nini.

'buzz buzz'

There was a tingling vibration in my trouser pocket. It was the ringtone of my cell phone, but I didn't want to pay attention to it.

Looking at Yan Nini lovingly, he leaned forward to close the distance between him and her.

"What is the love of the century?"

Facing my rhetorical question, Yan Nini smiled sweetly, raised her toes, and gently kissed my mouth with her lips: "Idiot, the two of us are the love of the century, the love that spans the century."

Yan Nini's expression is arrogant, but full of happiness.

The maintenance of feelings requires material support, but true love is always two people and one heart.

‘Whoosh’

'boom'

Fireworks pierce the dark sky and illuminate the entire sky. They are colorful and gorgeous, as if fairies from heaven have descended to earth.

In my ears, in addition to the sound of firecrackers, I heard the joyful cheers of passers-by.

The year 1999 has passed, the millennium, and the year 2000 have arrived.

"Qiu, I love you."

Just when I, like other passers-by, looked up at the sky to take in all the splendor and brilliance, Yan Nini's gentle voice stopped me.

When I lowered my head and looked at Yan Nini again.

My feelings are so complicated that I can't express them in words.

I saw Yan Nini's hands behind her back, raised in front of her chest, and in her left hand, she was holding an exquisite jewelry packaging box.

In the jewelry box, there are two diamond rings.

Touched emotions flooded into my mind in an instant, but besides being moved, I felt even more guilty.

As a man, I forgot to prepare a gift even though I knew it was a special day like today.

I admit, I'm not a romantic person, but that's no excuse.

When I first made some small money, I knew how to buy gifts for Qi Yao, play surprises, and make Qi Yao happy. But now, on this special day, I have neglected it.

Even the idea of ​​a gift has never occurred to me.

It's not that I love Qi Yao more deeply, it's just that when I strive for something, I ignore what I have already obtained.

In fact, the love I received is far more important to me than the fame and fortune I strive for.

I didn't know how to speak, so I looked at Yan Nini dully, like a young child at a loss.
