In the black Mercedes-Benz S450, Tang Xianping was driving and Xu Momo was sitting in the passenger seat.

"Mr. Xu, I have been busy since I left in the afternoon, so I didn't have time to ask, what kind of cuisine do you like?" Tang Xianping asked.

"When I eat, I'm not picky about food, I'm just picky about people."

Tang Xianping's eyes lit up and he praised: "What a man who is not picky about food, but only picks people. I didn't expect that Mr. Xu is also a sweetheart."

Xu Momo nodded in response.

"I have booked three places. One is called Youyuange, and its seafood is particularly famous. One is called Laochuanfu, which is a Sichuan restaurant. There is also one called Zhenshi, which is a private restaurant that mainly specializes in Cantonese cuisine. Mr. Xu, look

Where are you going?"

Xu Momo asked casually without thinking, "Where is the closest?"

"Recently?" Tang Xianping thought for a while, "Then let's go to Laochuan Mansion."

Laochuan Mansion is indeed the closest place, and like Jiangpan Washington Mansion, they are both on Donghe Road.

The "Yizhou" private room covers an area of ​​more than fifty square meters. In the middle is a large dining table with a diameter of more than three meters that can accommodate more than twenty people dining at the same time. There is also a reception area, tea table and sofa next to it.

Ancient oil paintings hang on the walls.

"Mr. Tang, is there anyone else here?"

Tang Xianping was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "There is no one here anymore. If Mr. Xu has any friends, you can call them over."

Xu Momo also smiled and said: "I see that this box is too big. It would be difficult for the two of us to talk if we are too far apart."

As Xu Momo said that, he sat on the chair next to Tang Xianping, and then moved slightly to the side.

Tang Xianping smiled knowingly, "Mr. Xu, would you like to order?"

Xu Momo didn't refuse and called the waiter. Without looking at the menu, he said casually: "Boiled fish, crispy pork slices, couple's lung slices. I'll just order these. Mr. Tang, please come again."

Tang Xianping added a few more dishes, and even took the initiative to say: "Spicy Sichuan food, how about we drink beer?"

"Just what I wanted."

The dishes were brought to the table one after another, and three bottles of beer per person were poured down, and the atmosphere on the table became intense.

Xu Momo raised a topic, "Mr. Tang, did things go well this afternoon?"

Tang Xianping looked at Xu Momo's confident expression and was slightly surprised. He smiled and asked, "Do you know what I'm going to do this afternoon?"

"I have a guess. I'm just curious, how did Mr. Tang handle it?"

"Break their limbs."

Forehead!

Although Xu Momo guessed that the four tiger brothers who intended to bully Tang Wen would be unlucky, he did not expect that Tang Xianping, who was "alluring" in appearance, would be so ruthless.

Cut off a person's limbs.

If the third leg is broken, is he still a man?

Xu Momo smacked his lips and smiled helplessly, "As expected of Mr. Tang, his actions are indeed extraordinary."

Tang Xianping smiled bitterly and said: "I am not Mr. Tang. In our family, Mr. Tang is the son of my second uncle and my cousin---Tang Xianlong."

Xu Momo accurately caught the hint of unwillingness in Tang Xianping's eyes.

"Oh? Is there something special about this? Can you talk to me?"

Tang Xianping sighed, shook his head slightly, and said bitterly: "There's nothing to say. As a big family, it's inevitable to fight for favor and position."

"It seems that your family has too many brothers and sisters."

"No." Tang Xianping said solemnly, "I only have one sister."

Xu Momo picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Tang Xianping, and said enviously: "You are better than me, I am an only child. I have been envious of people who have a sister since I was a child. My sister can protect me when I was young, and I can protect my sister when I grow up.

.”

"Yes." Tang Xianping sighed

One sentence, "It was my sister who protected me when I was a child, now it's my turn to protect her."

Tang Wen's beautiful face seemed to appear in front of Xu Momo's eyes, with a trace of sadness between her eyebrows, and he thought that she was almost insulted by a gangster like Brother Hu. He suddenly felt a little unhappy in his heart, even a little dandy like Mo Zhenglong

, bringing two bodyguards with him when he comes in and out. As the daughter of a wealthy family, Tang Wen actually goes in and out of the bar alone.

I don't know whether he felt sorry for Tang Wen's sorrow or was jealous of Tang Xianping's handsomeness. A sentence that was incompatible with the atmosphere at the dinner table came out of Xu Momo's mouth: "Mr. Tang, to put it bluntly, I think you are not doing a good enough job. You

You actually let your sister go to the bar to drink alone, I can see that she was very unhappy that day."

Tang Xianping's eyes became even more lonely, "Yeah, I didn't do well enough. It was my mother's death anniversary, and I didn't even accompany her."

Tang Xianping said as he drank a glass of wine and slammed the glass against the opposite wall.

"Bang!"

A hole was smashed into the oil painting on the wall, and glass shards were scattered everywhere.

Xu Momo was shocked. Tang Xianping was only in his early twenties, and his mother should be around fifty by now, but he was so early...

"I'm sorry, I didn't know." Xu Momo felt a little guilty.

"But that day, someone actually wanted to betroth my sister, and he made a bet to a notorious playboy." Tang Xianping said with a ferocious look on his face, almost roaring.

Xu Momo took a cup and helped Tang Xianping fill it with wine. After thinking about it, he opened two more bottles of beer, handed one to Tang Xianping's hand, touched it and said, "Here, blow on one."

Tang Xianping held up the bottle and poured it into his mouth.

"Bang."

"Bang."

The two drank one after another and smashed the bottle against the opposite wall.

Neither of them spoke a word until they dropped the cigarette butts in their hands.

Xu Momo looked at Tang Xianping and said sincerely: "Tell me about it! In front of the aristocratic family, I am really insignificant. But I may be able to help you with some advice. Even if it doesn't help, I can also be a trash can and listen to you pour out your bitterness."

Tang Xianping was so confused that he buried his head in confusion for a long time.

"Okay, then let me tell you something. Some words have been buried in my heart for many years. No one has ever talked about them, and they are uncomfortable to hold in."

Tang Xianping's father was Tang Jixiu, the eldest son of the head of the Tang family.

Tang Jixiu showed great talent in martial arts and business acumen since he was a child. He was known as the Tang family's once-in-a-century genius. When he was over 20, he managed the Tang family's industry as the quasi-head of the family.

On Valentine's Day fifteen years ago, Tang Jixiu and his wife were involved in a car accident, and his wife died on the spot. Tang Jixiu stopped managing the company and drank to drown his sorrows all day long. A year later, fourteen years ago, Tang Jixiu left a letter and left.

They ran away from home and have not returned yet. That year, Tang Wen was only 9 years old and Tang Xianping was only 7 years old. They lost the love of their mother and father one after another at a young age.

The disappearance of Tang Jixiu meant that it was necessary to re-select a prospective head of the family. According to the ancestral teachings, the prospective head of the family should be succeeded by Tang Xianping, the eldest son and grandson. However, several of Tang Xianping's uncles spread rumors and made trouble, and framed Tang Xianping many times, which made the family elders

The Tuan disqualified Tang Xianping from inheriting the family. In the end, the identity of the prospective head of the family fell on Tang Xianping's second uncle, Tang Jiwu.

Although Tang Xianping was unwilling to accept this, the situation was stronger than others, so he had no choice but to accept it. Fortunately, he also had good martial arts talents, and the family did not force him too much. They promised that as long as he reached a certain level of martial arts, he could enter the family elders' group in advance.

However, Tang Xianping and Tang Wen's concessions did not lead to peace.

A group of people headed by Tang Jiwu not only deducted Tang Xianping and Tang Wen's dividends, but also reduced Tang Xianping's cultivation resources. What's even more outrageous is that on February 14, this belonged to Tang Xianping and Tang Wen's mother

On the anniversary of his death, the Tang family made a decision: to marry Tang Wen to Li Yehai, a notorious playboy from the Li family in Yuzhou.

Xu Momo sympathized a little with these two siblings who "drove the country and the city".

Lost his mother when he was young.

Father is missing.

The malice of elders.

Relatives’ calculations.

Is this what “rich families are ruthless”?

Xu Momo once again thought of the beautiful but melancholy Tang Wen in the "Time Music Bar".

You live in a wealthy family, you may look glamorous on the outside, but your life is not going as you want!

It must be very painful for a woman to not even be able to control her own love affairs and marriage!

When I put her on the bed that day, she curled up in a ball unconsciously. That was probably a sign of her insecurity!

Xu Momo suddenly had an idea that he found incredible: he wanted to protect her.

Xu Momo remained silent for a long time.

After Tang Xianping finished speaking, his mood was still not calm, and he drank glass after glass of wine.

a long time.

Xu Momo blew out a puff of smoke and sighed sadly: "Can a person ignore family ties in order to fight for power and gain?"

Tang Xianping's handsome face showed a trace of vicissitudes of life, "Who can not fight? Fight for money, fight for power, fight for profit, fight for women... Where is there no dispute? There are in rural areas, there are in cities, there are at home, there are in work units,

The school has it, the society has it... The interests of the aristocratic families are too great, so there are more ways to fight, and there is no bottom line."

Xu Momo nodded. Although he didn't have such a strong sense of immersion, he had seen a lot of scenes of family and even imperial power struggles in novels and movies.
