"Miss Stella, I haven't seen you for a few days. You seem to be in a good mood today."
Seeing Long Zhan and Stella approaching, the woman in the wheelchair took the initiative to say hello, and then saw the two holding hands.
The corners of his mouth raised involuntarily, and he joked with a meaningful smile: "Oh, I seem to understand."
The woman's pale and sickly face due to illness does not affect her elegant temperament at all, and the smile between the corners of her mouth and eyebrows exudes a comforting affinity.
If she wasn't ill and confined to a wheelchair, this woman would definitely make all men look at her.
The long-haired man sitting next to the woman was originally as quiet as a lake that didn't care about the world. The elegant smile at the corner of his mouth was more like a European gentleman from the last century.
But when he saw Long Zhan walking towards him, he had the same shock in his eyes as Long Zhan.
And the vigilance that cannot be hidden!
This alertness did not come from Long Zhan's figure, but from the aura that Long Zhan inadvertently exuded, which made him feel a strong threat.
Like a resting wolf, he suddenly found a Siberian brown bear strutting towards him.
As a wolf.
He had to arch his mane.
Just when Long Zhan and the long-haired man were essentially hostile to each other due to their professional relationship, the two ladies were already chatting happily.
"Mrs. Wick, you look very good."
Stella and the woman looked very familiar. They must have met each other many times. After greeting each other familiarly, she took Long Zhan's shoulder and introduced her intimately: "This is my boyfriend, Long Gibran, who has been with me for a long time.
I work outside and just came back a few days ago.
Maybe he will leave after a few days. Home is like a hotel to him, and I am used to it."
Stella is used to talking. In fact, even a person with an EQ of -200 can hear how strong the resentment in her words is.
Male and female friends who are in the honeymoon stage want to be together 24 hours a day.
This kind of days together for a few weeks at most, and then separated for weeks or even months, is really unbearable for most people.
It’s normal for Stella to have resentment, but it’s abnormal to just let you do whatever you want without resentment.
After venting her inner melancholy, Stella turned into an optimistic little woman again, stretched out her hand and introduced the couple in front of her to Long Zhan.
"This is Mr. John Wick, and this is his wife. They live next door to us. They are both very easy to get along with. They helped me a lot when I bought a house before."
"Nice to meet you. I'm busy with work and rarely at home. Thank you for taking care of me."
Long Zhan took the initiative to take two steps forward and shook hands with the Wicks enthusiastically.
On the one hand, it is indeed a heartfelt thank you for Stella being able to meet such good neighbors in this wealthy area where people are warm and welcoming.
On the other hand, it was also out of his personal love for John Wick that he was happy to be friends with him.
This man, a cold-blooded killer, could be so loyal to his wife that even after his wife died, he would fight an entire gang without hesitation for a dog that his wife gave him.
Just because of his true manly temperament, Long Zhan is worthy of taking the initiative to make friends with him.
If a private military company is opened in the future and he can be signed as an employee of his company, it will be equivalent to having an extra right-hand man.
"Hello, nice to meet you too."
John Wick shook hands with Long Zhan, and the smile on his lips was still as gentlemanly, but it seemed that due to his personality, his words were very concise.
Long Zhan doesn't mind either.
After all, he knew that the man in front of him was one of the top killers in the world. If he was a nagging person, it would make Long Zhan uncomfortable.
"My husband used to be just like you, spending very little time at home."
Mrs. Wick seemed to understand Stella very well. She held Long Zhan's hand and said in a tone that should not be used at this age: "Mr. Gibran, no matter how busy you are at work, you must take care of your family. Home is the harbor in life. You must cherish it."
Every day together.”
Long Zhan felt Mrs. Wick's cold hands and knew that she was "showing her truth", and felt inexplicably sad in his heart.
People who are about to die can best understand the true meaning.
Mrs. Wick was already in the advanced stage of cancer at this time, and her days to live were already being counted by the day. Perhaps what she missed most was John Wick.
When John Wick, who was sitting next to him, heard what his wife said, his originally calm eyes were full of emotions.
The biggest part of it is regret.
Even if he has washed his hands in a golden basin now and is with his wife 24 hours a day, the time he can spend with her is still limited.
At a young age, life and death are about to be separated.
For couples who have lost their relationship, this is the most painful thing in the world.
Long Zhan didn't want to disturb this couple. In the last short time together in their lives, they enjoyed the beautiful world of the two of them by the sea.
After being simple and reserved, he said goodbye with a smile and left with Stella.
Before leaving, I wanted to express my love for them and also communicate with neighbors.
I would like to extend my sincere invitation to Mr. and Mrs. Wick to attend a party specially organized by them tomorrow night for moving into their new home, so as to bring them closer to each other as neighbors.
As a killer, Wick John didn't like fun, so he originally wanted to refuse.
But Mrs. Wick and Stella had a good relationship, so Mrs. Wick agreed before John could say no.
John now puts his wife first, so he can only change his mind and accept the invitation.
After parting ways with the Wicks, Long Zhan and Stara continued to roam the beach, enjoying the quiet night scene of the beach.
Stella's mood didn't change much, she was still as excited as a child who bought a new toy, chatting with Long Zhan about various things.
It expresses the longing for Long Zhan and the yearning for a better life in the future.
Dragon War is just the opposite.
The expression on his face didn't change much. He nodded and replied to cooperate with Stella, but what he was thinking about was a completely different situation.
"The harvest tonight is not bad. It seems that we need to make some special arrangements next time. The top killer lives nearby. It would be a big loss if we don't make him a partner."
"The killer organization behind him is even bigger. If it can be used, it will definitely be of great use."
"I have watched relatively few foreign movies, and John Wick is one of the few that I know. With my understanding of the plot, if I can design it well, I might be able to win over John Wick."
"As long as a true-hearted man like Wick can be won over, there is absolutely nothing to say about loyalty."
…
Long Zhan skillfully multitasked. While chatting with Stella, his mind was filled with various plans. The more he thought about it, the more he became excited.
It seems that the spot of Killer Assassin, one of the scheduled members of the original team, has been confirmed.
These are special talents that need to be prepared in advance before Long Zhan opens the company, in addition to direct action team members.
Each one is very important!
We have been preparing for the Dragon War for so long, and now only a small number of them have suitable candidates, and the rest need to step up their efforts.
Now that a top candidate was brought to his lips, Long Zhan felt that if he couldn't eat it, he would be sorry for himself.
