After having supper at my cousin's house, Yonas called Markridge.

Ritchie answered the phone and said with a smile: "Jonas, it's confirmed that the general will be a father next year. Do you guess it will have a son or a daughter?"

Jonas did not expect that Ritchie's opening remark was to discuss the issue of a horse's offspring with him, but he quickly adjusted his emotions. He laughed and said, "Sir, is this a bet?"

Ricky laughed and said, "Good idea, you guessed it right, then the pony belongs to you. If you guessed it wrong, it belongs to me."

Jonas laughed and said, "Okay. I guess it's a stallion."

Ricky smiled and said, "Okay, let's wait for the results to come out. It's rare that you call me, the old man. What can I help you with?"

"Sir, I feel a little confused in my heart. I need a wise man like you who has a lot of experience in life to help me. I just don't know if you are willing."

Ricci laughed. "Of course. I'd love it."

"So can I visit you tomorrow?"

Ricci laughed and said, "Why not now? I remember that you should be the only one at home in your home now. I am attending a banquet in Geneva now, but the conferences held by many international officials are always boring. We can hold a small banquet in my villa by Lake Geneva. If Cecia doesn't blame me for leading you, I can also introduce a supermodel to you."

He said a name. Yonas was a little unfamiliar, but Zhou Lei was very familiar with it because he was a world-renowned international supermodel, especially in 2005. Such temptation made Yonas immediately feel hot. However, he still smiled and said, "Sir, it depends on the result of our conversation."

Ritchie smiled and said, "I know, you won't let me down."

Ricci hung up the phone and took action. Jacob, a bodyguard three meters away, came over. Ricci said, "Arranging some food in the villa, the food here really makes me lose my appetite. Call Mina and ask her to persuade Yamira to accompany Jonas one night tonight. Now I will say goodbye to the owner and arrange to go home. I need to wait for the little guy to come at home."

Jacob nodded and stepped back without saying a word. Another bodyguard approached Rich calmly and replaced Jacob's position. Although there was no need to be guarded against assassins in such an occasion, some of the snares who were unpredictable asked him to stop him.

After hanging up the phone, Yonas immediately drove to Vevey on the north shore of Lake Geneva, where Rich had a villa. It was not completely dark, and Yonas rushed to Vevey in two hours.

Vevey is located south of the Alps. Because of the obstruction of mountains, cold air cannot move south. With the nourishment of warm wind in the Mediterranean, the temperature here is at least several degrees higher than that of the north of the mountains. Recently, there is another wind burning weather. Vevey's highest temperature reaches 20 degrees, which is much warmer than the sub-zero temperature in the north of the mountains. Most wealthy people in Switzerland buy a house in the south of the mountains and take turns living. As for wealthy people like Rich who have houses almost everywhere, of course, there are not too many.

When he arrived in Vevey, Jonas did not know the specific address of Rich's villa, so he called. Soon, Rich's bodyguard Jacob appeared in front of Jonas. He followed Jacob's car and walked out of Vevey, looking in Montreux, and walked not far away. The car entered a villa near the lake.

This villa looks ordinary and doesn't look much different from the surrounding houses, but the surrounding greenery is a little better. However, Yonas thought to himself that the security measures here must be very different from other places.

Jacob took Jonas to the main house and closed the door and left. There were only three people in the living room, Ricci and Mina, and the Yamira Deyaz mentioned by Ricci. In his previous life, Zhou Lei had admired this supermodel for a long time, but the gap was too big and he never thought that he would have any contact with her. But now, the opportunity came to him.

Ritchie was also wearing a dress for the banquet, and both ladies were dressed up in great costumes. Yamila wore a white beaver fur coat, but a black dress with wide open breasts inside, which made her look particularly stylish. Yonas knew that she was born in 1976 and four years older than her. At this age, she was the most beautiful, charming and tempting woman. Yonas still remembered that she became popular again in 2005 and became a royal underwear model for Victoria's Secret. Even with the support of the financial backer, she was inseparable from her outstanding appearance.

Rich sat there without moving, and said with a smile: "Little Jonas, how are you doing in Germany's Christmas?"

"It's very pleasant. Mr.'s holiday in Spain must be very pleasant, right?"

Mina and Yamila were not as big as Ricci, so they stood up to greet them. Mina led Yonas to sit down opposite Ricci, and sat next to Ricci.

Yamira stretched out her hand and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Hoffman, I was shocked when I heard that it was Mr. Ritchie's friend."

But Jonas bowed and pulled her hand, lowered his head and kissed the back of her hand and said, "Because I'm not the old man you imagined?" He deliberately squeezed at Ricci.

Ricci laughed, "Little Jonas, I'm very happy to hear you tease me, which means you no longer treat me as an outsider." Amira smiled embarrassedly and sat down next to him.

Jonas laughed and said, "Sir, you will always be my most respected elder."

Ritchie was even happier and said, "I was still hungry at the cocktail party, but the two beautiful ladies were on a diet. Would you like to have dinner with an old man?"

Of course this is not a special invitation for food. Jonas also knew that he would face this moment and said with a smile: "Of course, sir, this is my honor."

The dishes for dinner are very simple, it is a Spanish-style dinner, a portion of cod, a portion of boiled shrimp, an oyster and vegetable soup, and a portion of Spanish specialty steamed rice. The red wine is a wine sent by Yonas's house, which Yonas drank in one sip.

While eating, the two chatted easily about their vacation, without talking about serious things. They arranged for bodyguards to send the two girls to the hot springs. After drinking and eating, the two moved to the study on the second floor. Ricci pulled out two Cuba cigars from the cigar box and asked Yonas: "Jonas, do you want one?"

Jonas took out his cigarette and said, "I have not learned to enjoy the mellowness of cigars at my age."

Ritchie smiled and said, "You should learn to enjoy that cigars are a good thing. They are not harmful to cigarettes and have the pleasure of drugs. They are more suitable for regulating personal emotions."

"Did sir try drugs too? I thought that was enjoyed by young people."

Ricky smiled and said, "I also came from my youth. At that time, I had to enjoy Cocaine at least twice a week, but when I was old, I also learned to cherish my life. Health care is the most important thing for me now."

"Are you afraid of death, too?"

Ritchie burst into laughter and asked, "Aren't you afraid?" Cut the end of the cigar with a cigar cutter.

Jonas nodded and said, "Or behind death is the beginning of another new life, who knows?! In August, I once passed by death. I thought I would be very scared, but at that time, my mind was blank. For a moment, I only remembered a Chinese proverb."

Yonas took the cigar handed over by Ricci and slowly lit it with a spray gun. Ricci patiently did not ask. Yonas took a sip of cigarette into his mouth, wrapped it in his mouth and savored it carefully for a while. He felt it smelled very fragrant, but couldn't say what was good. He slowly sprayed out the smoke, and then said: "What's the joy of life and why is death hard."

Ricky understood the meaning and said, "This seems to be the language of Buddhism."

Jonas was not sure whether this sentence was Buddhist or not, and said, "I have only read this sentence in Chinese literature, but I have never studied it."

Ritchie asked, "Then did your transformation start from that time?"

Jonas nodded and said, "I used to feel that I was still young and had enough time to squander. But in the accident in August, I was only half a meter away from falling off the ice, and I was about to fall off a cliff more than a hundred meters deep. I couldn't imagine the consequences if I really fell down. Even if I was dead and I didn't know anything, the pain I brought to my family would be for life."

Ritchie said, "It seems contrary to what you say about life and death."

"Yes, my thoughts at that time are always different from those afterwards. I went from being confused by accident to fear, and finally became indifferent. This indifference is not to despise life, but respect. If according to Darwin's theory, there is only one purpose for nature, including all of us, that is evolution. However, in the course of life, the journey is the most exciting, so, thankfully, most of us choose to enjoy this wonderful life and deliberately ignore the essence of life."

"Then your choice now is to live wonderfully?"

Jonas thought for a while and said, "It's almost that."

Ricky smiled and said, "In the past, you just enjoyed life in a daze and passive manner, but now you have seen through the essence and actively chose to enjoy life. This is a different state of mind, congratulations."

"Sir, my life is one with you at present, and all my wonderful things are related to you, and glory is shared with you."

Ritchie looked at Jonas and asked, "Is this a promise?"

Jonas nodded and said, "I swear."

Ricci stared at him for a while, and his sharp eyes seemed to pierce the heart. Jonas nodded firmly. Ricci withdrew his gaze and looked up at a void corner of the roof, because his gaze seemed to be still in Jonas's heart. "Jonas, I'm very confused. Your changes have been too big. If I hadn't seen you at your house several times, I would even suspect that you were not really Jonas. Because you are completely different from you in the information. But I believe you!"

This time it was Jonas' turn to be surprised. The cunning Markridge actually chose to believe in himself! He asked: "Sir, why do you believe me?"

Markridge smiled and said, "Human nature, interests, and friendship. Would you like to listen to me, the old man, tell some of my life experience?"

"Of course, sir, I can't ask for anything."
