Chapter Four [Intrigue] (2)

Despite Si Zhen and Hu Zhongwu's strong opposition, Xiao Yu still insisted on driving to Wanshan Port alone. When he arrived at the east gate of the port, he saw the stupid leopard standing in the rain waiting for him at a glance.

Seeing Xiao Yu, Sha Bao ran towards the car with an umbrella, covering the wind and rain on his head before getting off the car. Xiao Yu felt a warmth in his heart. Sha Bao always thinks about him first at any time.

"Tan... Mr. Tan is waiting for you at the seaside..." Sha Bao said while pointing in the direction of the seaside. Tan Zizai sat far away at the edge of the port. In front of him was a white marble round table, and the large umbrella above his head just covered the wind and rain.

Xiao Yu and Sha Bao walked over slowly, Sha Bao whispered: "Why... want... to leave Mr. Tan?" Xiao Yu heard that he was not clear about the inside story. It seemed that Tan Zizai still concealed everything in Taichung.

Xiao Yu always had a faint smile on his face. He did not directly answer Sha Bao's question. He didn't want Sha Bao to know about this grudge between him and Tan Zizai. Sha Bao wanted to ask again, but Tan Zizai had waved his hand to Xiao Yu.

After a few days of not seeing Tan Zizai, he seemed much clearer. He pointed to the opposite position: "Sit!" Xiao Yu smiled and sat down. Tan Zizai said to Sha Bao again: "A Bao! Go to the construction site to see if there are any workers lazy." Now that the work time has passed, Sha Bao even if he doesn't understand, he can hear that Tan Zizai wants to talk to Xiao Yu alone.

Xiao Yu picked up the teapot on the table and added tea to Tan Zizai. Tan Zizai's gray head leaned back, and he could even feel the thin raindrops at the ends of his hair.

Xiao Yu's eyes finally had a direct contact with Tan Zizai. Tan Zizai did not show any anger. He said calmly: "There was an excellent hunter who had a group of hunting dogs. These hunting dogs were equally outstanding in his eyes until one day... he wanted to hunt a ferocious tiger, but he had to sacrifice a hunting dog to be bait, so he chose the thinnest one..."

Tan Zizai stared at Xiao Yu deeply and continued, "But he never expected that this hunting dog, which was picked as bait, was the most powerful and ferocious of all the hunting dogs. The hunting dog became angry and sad because of its owner's actions. It formed an alliance with the tiger, and changed from prey to hunter--"

Xiao Yu could hear what Tan Zizai was hiding after saying that, and he took a sip of tea: "Mr. Tan, I killed Lao An, don't you blame me?"

Tan Zizai's eyes were turbid and dim: "If you don't kill him, then you probably won't have the chance to sit opposite me!"

"Don't you blame me?"

Tan Zizai smiled indifferently: "In the eyes of us, people in the world, life and death are the most common things! If I care about everything that has happened one by one, then I will not be where I am today!"

"Thank you!" Xiao Yu said sincerely. Everything Tan Zizai said was sending a signal to him. As long as Xiao Yu returns to his camp, he can leave anything without blame.

Tan Zizai's eyes turned to the vast sea in the distance: "Whether it is ten thousand tons* or a lonely boat, they must rely on the power of the sea to grasp their course and destiny."

Xiao Yu didn't say anything, quietly waiting for Tan Zizai's following. Tan Zizai habitually picked up the cigar and lit it, spitting out a cloud of smoke: "I know you have been secretly developing your strength."

Now Xiao Yu has no need to hide it. He nodded: "Without Mr. Tan, there would be no today as Xiao Yu!" Tan Zizai shook his head: "With your ability, even if you didn't join my disciple at the beginning, you will still do something!" He paused and said: "Ayu, to be honest, I regret pushing you to Zhang Sufeng's camp!"

Xiao Yu looked at Tan Zizai: "Mr. Tan is here to come to me, it seems that it is not just to say this to me!" Tan Zizai praised and said, "No one under my command can compare with you."

He lowered his voice: "After the Taichung incident, Zhang Sufeng has no warning to you. If you want to deal with him, it should be much easier..." Xiao Yu sighed secretly. Tan Zizai really had another purpose. Until now, he is still thinking about using himself to deal with Zhang Sufeng.

Tan Zizai pointed to the brightly lit Wanshan Port: "This place will become the largest deep-water port in Taiwan, and 70% of the black market transactions in the entire East Asia will be carried out here. A Yu, if Zhang Sufeng becomes the mayor of Tainan, all our previous efforts will be gone."

"As long as he is prevented from becoming mayor and the project of Deepwater Port is successfully completed, I will retreat from this position..." Tan Zizai looked at Xiao Yu with deep thought: "If you want, I can designate you to be my successor!" This is tantamount to a very tempting condition for Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu gently tapped the table twice: "Mr. Tan... Thank you for your kindness. I have decided not to interfere in the matter between the Qinglong Gang and the Dragon Destroy Society. If conditions permit, I will leave Taiwan for a while recently."

Tan Zizai's expression immediately became cold, and he said coldly: "Even if you leave Taiwan, you can't live without this world. No matter where you go, you can't change everything you have done. You are destined to survive in this environment. If you leave this place, you will have nothing!"

"I'm sorry!" Xiao Yu slowly stood up. He had already understood Tan Zizai's real purpose. The reason why he rejected Tan Zizai's such tempting conditions was because he had seen through it. Whether it was relying on Tan Zizai or Zhang Sufeng, in the current environment, he was destined to be a pawn that was used. He could not continue like this forever. He had to seize this opportunity.

Until Xiao Yu left, Tan Zizai never said a word again. In his heart, Xiao Yu had completely turned to Zhang Sufeng's camp. His deep loss contained irrepressible anger, and he wanted to let these young people know that his era was far from past.

Xiao Yu had just walked out of the door of Wanshan Port and saw a car flashing lights at him in the distance. When he approached, he found that it was Si Zhen, Ma Guohao, Hu Zhongwu and Zhuo Kechun.

Xiao Yu felt inexplicably moved. They were obviously worried about their safety. Zhuo Kechun rolled down the car window. After a few months, she became more and more touching: "Brother Yu! Are you okay?" Xiao Yu showed a warm smile: "It's not better! When did you come from Australia? It seems that Miss Zhuo is worried about me, come check the accounts, right?"

"Miss Zhuo just arrived an hour ago. I heard that you were on Tan Zizai's date and insisted that we come and have a look together!" Si Zhen squeezed his eyes to Xiao Yu with a warm feeling. Zhuo Kechun's face was blushing. For some reason, she always felt heartbroken every time she saw Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu threw his car key to Si Zhen: "Drive my car back!"

Si Zhen asked strangely: "Where are you?"

Xiao Yu opened the car door and sat next to Zhuo Kechun: "I will go to Macau with Kechun tonight. Tan Zizai shouldn't have much time left!"

Hu Zhongwu said: "It's better...I'll go with you..."

Xiao Yu shook his head: "I'm going to visit Mr. He this time, not to fight and kill again, Ke Chun talks better with me!" Ma Guohao seemed to understand something, and tugged on Hu Zhongwu's arm tactfully: "Brother Wu, Ayu and Miss Zhuo seem to have their plans, so don't be troublesome!" He said this very straightforwardly. Si Zhen and Hu Zhongwu understood at the same time, and Zhuo Kechun buried his head in shame.

Xiao Yu did have other plans. He knew clearly that they would not be assured to go to Macau alone. Now that Zhuo Kechun is an excuse, no matter who it is, he is embarrassed to ask to go with him again.

The reason why Macau is famous all over the world is because of her gambling, and He Tiansheng is the most powerful person in this casino. When Xiao Yu and Zhuo Kechun came to the land of Macau, the drizzle was still flying in the night sky. Xiao Yu took a deep breath of the cold air and immediately swept away his fatigue.

Zhuo Kechun raised his head and looked at the sky. The curve of her neck was extremely soft. Xiao Yu smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry!"

Zhuo Kechun stared at Xiao Yu deeply with clear eyes: "Why do you say that?"

"The reason I asked you to come to Macau with me is because I don't want others to come-..."

Zhuo Kechun didn't say anything, and his long black eyelashes drooped.

Xiao Yu thought she didn't fully understand what she meant, and explained: "I always regarded you as my best friend!"

Zhuo Kechun smiled indifferently, then turned his head and looked at the rising and falling planes in the distance. Two tears flashed in his beautiful eyes.

The night wind mixed with cold raindrops blowing on the two of them. Xiao Yu took off his windbreaker and put it on Zhuo Kechun's shoulders. Zhuo Kechun silently tightened his collar and said softly: "Brother Yu! If it weren't for you, I... wouldn't have persisted until now... Whether it's now or in the future, I just hope to be by your side..."

Xiao Yu's heart suddenly trembled, and he suddenly realized that what he said just now was so stupid. Zhuo Kechun's feelings for him were far from being as simple as friendship.

He immediately changed the topic: "He Tiansheng said that he would come to the airport to pick me up, but why hasn't he appeared yet?"

Zhuo Kechun pointed to a black Lincoln driving from a distance: "If I'm not mistaken, that car should have been sent by Mr. He!"

Zhuo Kechun's speculation was immediately confirmed. Although He Tiansheng did not appear in person, Xiao Yu saw Zhu Hou. This person who had lost his whereabouts since the fireworks actually appeared at the Macau Airport.

No matter from any angle, there is no real holiday between Xiao Yu and Zhu Hou. The only conflict is because of their different goals. Xiao Yu secretly rejoices that this time, Hu Zhongwu did not follow him to Macau. If he sees Zhu Hou, a bloody battle of life and death will inevitably be inevitable.

Zhu Hou seemed to have completely forgotten all the things that happened before. He smiled and came to the two of them, and stretched out his hand to Xiao Yu: "Mr. He asked me to pick up a VIP, but I didn't expect it was you!" Xiao Yu noticed that he deliberately used the word "you", which shows Zhu Hou's cleverness.

Xiao Yu smiled and reached out his hand: "I didn't expect that Mr. He would ask my old friend to pick me up at the airport in person!" Zhu Hou's lips showed an intriguing smile. He naturally had his own understanding of the word "old friend".
