After Xu Shi finished speaking, he took Taxi away. As for whether those people wanted to kill him at this time, it was not within his scope of consideration.

Not far after the two of them left the slaughterhouse, Xu Shi raised his hand and patted Taxi's face, and said lightly: "Stop pretending, no one is following!"

Taxi, who was still hanging his head, suddenly opened his eyes. After seeing Xu Shihou, her eyes were a little complicated. She avoided his gaze and whispered, "How can you tell that I'm just faking it?"

Xu Shi did not answer his question, only asked him: "Can I still leave?"

Taxi moved her feet. The wound was very painful, but it was not unbearable, so she nodded and said, "I can walk."

"Then walk a few steps by yourself to make it faster. Not far ahead, there is a place where the wind can't blow. You go and hide first. I will go back and get the car to pick you up." Xu Shi said as he took off his clothes The coat was given to Tassie.

Taxi was not polite and put on her coat honestly. After putting it on, he silently followed Xu Shi to the sheltered position, and then silently watched Xu Shi disappear into the night.

It was almost five o'clock.

Tassie leaned in that corner, not daring to smoke. The wind whistled past the corner next to it, but it really couldn't blow into this corner.

After standing for a while, he couldn't stand any longer. He was wrapped in Xu Shi's coat and felt colder and colder.

He suddenly remembered something that he had not thought of for a long time.

In the winter of that year, he got into a fight with someone, his face was stained, he didn't dare to go home, and he had no money, so he hung around near his home. As I wandered around, it became dark.

It's very cold at night in winter, and the northwest wind blows so hard that it feels like it can blow away a person's soul.

He hid in the corner to avoid the wind, his stomach was empty, and he felt cold and lonely.

Just when he couldn't stand it any longer, Haina found him with a flashlight. When she saw him, Haina scolded him while taking out a steaming roasted sweet potato from her arms.

After seeing his bright eyes, Haina smiled and said, "Are you hungry? Eat quickly and go home after eating!"

Eat and go home...

He ate it, but Haina never returned home that winter.

When Xu Shi drove back, Taxi had already developed a high fever, so feverish that he couldn't distinguish people.

Xu Shi quickly sent him to the hospital. Fortunately, the problem was not serious, but he had been frozen for a long time, and he had lost a lot of blood, so he had a high fever. He could recover after a few days of rest.

Coincidentally, he had just settled Taxi in the hospital and when he was about to leave, he met Huang Mao's group.

When enemies meet, they are naturally extremely jealous.

However, the only ones who were jealous were Huang Mao's group.

After a hard night, it was already seven o'clock when we returned to the newly rented house. It was still dark, so Xu Shi took a shower and quickly got some sleep.

When I woke up, it was already afternoon. The sun is shining brightly outside.

Xu Shi leaned on the bedside and woke up for a while. He took his mobile phone and looked at it. There were several calls, one from Taxi, two from Yuna, and one from Longdao.

Xu Shi sent one back to Taxi first.

His fever has gone away, and although he is still weak, there is nothing wrong with him. He said he wanted to be discharged from the hospital, and Xu Shi asked him to stay for two more days so that he did not need to be discharged in a hurry.

Huang Mao and the others have suffered such a big loss, and there is no guarantee that someone will not remember the lesson and think wrongly again, so it is safer for Taxi to stay in the hospital now. It will not be too late for him to leave the hospital after he has sorted out Huang Mao and the others. .

After hanging up the phone, Xu Shi called Long Dao.

The phone rang for a while before it was picked up. Without courtesy, Long Dao said directly: "At five o'clock in the evening, Anhe Hotel, are you free?"

Long Dao, who originally said he would not be back for a few days, suddenly came back and even made an appointment for a dinner. The reason behind it was naturally not difficult to guess.

Of course Xu Shi would not say that he was not free.

After agreeing, he got up, washed up, went out to have a meal, walked around a clothing store and bought a coat, and it was almost time.

It was 4:57 when Xu Shi arrived at the hotel. There was already a circle of people sitting around the large round table in the private room. In addition to the managers from the entertainment city, there were two unfamiliar faces.

The third child is also there.

It's just that it's a bit miserable to describe.

When Xu Shi entered, he lowered his head slightly and did not dare to raise his head to look at Xu Shi.

Long Dao was sitting in the main seat and was talking to Xia Hapu who was sitting next to him. When he heard the sound at the door, he looked up and saw Xu Shishi. He smiled slightly and pointed to the empty space on the other side. position, said: "Come, sit here!"

After Xu Shi's eyes scanned the faces of other people in the room, Shi Shiran walked to that position, called Brother Dao, and sat down.

When he sat down, Long Dao raised his eyes and looked at the person sitting closest to the door, one of the two unfamiliar faces, "Go and tell the waiter and let them serve the food."

The man responded and went out to find the waiter.

Long Dao turned to look at Xu Shi and asked, "What is the name of that boy under your command?"

"Are you talking about Taxi?" Xu Shi thought for a moment before replying.

Long Dao nodded and then asked: "How is he? Is he seriously injured?"

When Xu Shi heard this, he looked past him at Xia Hapu, and then replied: "You are lucky, you are not dead."

He didn't say whether he was seriously injured or not, only that he wasn't dead.

Long Dao nodded and said nothing.

Xu Shi thought for a while and added: "He is not mine, but the third child probably had some objections to me, so he passed him to me. However, this kid is really easy to handle, but he is too honest. Point! Last night I heard that my third child was admitted to the hospital, so I hurriedly went to see him, but in the end, even I was kidnapped! "

These words suddenly shocked both people. The third child couldn't hold his temper the most, and his expression immediately changed. He glared at Xu Shi angrily, and then looked at Long Dao hurriedly, wanting to explain. But he never thought that as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw Long Dao's cold eyes shooting towards him like an arrow.

After all, the third child still had a wink and immediately shut up.

Xia Hapu, on the other hand, was much calmer. He didn't even change his expression. He was still looking at his phone, as if he didn't hear Xu Shi's words at all.

Long Dao didn't answer.

Xu Shi stopped talking, reached for the tea cup and drank slowly.

After a while, the waiter began to serve the food.

The third child stood up diligently and wanted to pour wine for Long Dao, but everyone stood next to Long Dao with wine bottles, but Long Dao didn't give him this face. He just frowned slightly and said displeased: "People are like this." Come on, why bother? Just go back and sit down!"

The third child came back angrily, his eyes filled with uncontrollable anxiety.

As a result, as soon as he sat down, Long Dao suddenly looked at him again and ordered: "Third brother, pour some wine for your brother Wang."

After the third child was stunned for a moment, his face suddenly turned pale. After gritting his teeth, he didn't dare to refute after all. He stood up obediently and came over with a wine bottle to pour Xu Shi some wine.

Fortunately, he didn't dare to go back and just stood there.

After Long Dao glanced at him, he sighed as if without any trace, and then said to Xu Shi: "Lao San, he doesn't have the brains to do things. For my sake, you drank this glass of wine, what happened before, Just don’t worry about it.”

Xu Shi smiled and said: "Brother Dao has already spoken, so of course I will listen to you. Don't worry, as long as the third child doesn't seek death, I will definitely not do anything to him."

Long Dao nodded when he heard this, then raised his eyes and stared at Lao San.

The third child finally became smart at this time and quickly bent down to apologize to Xu Shi without Long Dao's instructions.

Xu Shi took the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.

At this time, Long Dao personally took the wine bottle and filled another cup for Xu Shi, then turned around and poured another cup for Xia Hapu.

"Xiahapu didn't know about what happened to Taxi yesterday. However, after all, it was the people under him, so you have to admit this mistake, Xiahapu!" Long Dao looked at Xiahapu and said.

Xia Hapu had no expression on his face. After hearing this, he was very straightforward. He took the wine glass and gestured to Xu Shi: "What happened yesterday was due to my inability to control my subordinates. I admit this mistake. I'm sorry!" After finishing, he raised the wine glass and drank it.

Xu Shi looked at the wine glass in front of him, smiled, then picked it up and took a sip.

The matter between him and Xhaphap was not just yesterday's kidnapping of Taxi.

Long Dao glanced at him, but didn't say anything more.

He just pointed at the steaming dishes on the table and said, "Let's eat."

After saying this, Sister Xiang, who was sitting next to Xia Hapu, stood up first with a smile, holding a wine bottle, and wanted to pour wine for Long Dao. Long Dao did not refuse this time, and allowed Sister Xiang to pour the wine, and even said a few words with a smile.

With Sister Xiang's introduction, several other people gradually became active, and even Zai, the KTV manager on the fourth floor who had always been cold, had a faint smile on his face.

Xu Shi kept a smile on his face, silently listening to their conversation and joking, and looking at everyone quietly.

Halfway through the drinking session, Long Dao suddenly said that he wanted to introduce two people to him, so he waved the two strangers over, and then introduced them to Xu Shi one by one.

These two people came back from Tao County with Long Dao this time, but they did not follow Long Dao recently, but had followed Long Dao for many years, but they had been helping Long Dao in Tao County before, and they followed Long Dao this time. Come back, probably not leaving.

Both of them look like Han Chinese. One of them is named Xiao Zhang Fei. He looks like Zhang Fei. He is from the Northeast. Another person named Ma San is also from eastern Guangdong.

As soon as Xu Shi heard the word Yuedong, he couldn't help but become slightly vigilant.

As expected, when Ma San opened his mouth, he spoke Cantonese.

Fortunately, since Xu Shi assumed the identity of Wang Yuan, who was originally from eastern Guangdong, he would not be unprepared. When he opened his mouth, he spoke authentic Cantonese, but Ma San was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was saying.

After the two chatted politely for a few words, Long Dao intervened at the right time: "This Ma San will follow you when you turn around. You have to manage an entertainment city now, and you can't have anyone under you. Although Taxi is easy to handle, , but after all, he is still young, and there are some scenes where he can’t handle it, so it’s just right for Ma San to take care of him!”

Xu Shi agreed immediately, showing no trace of reluctance.
