my old life

Chapter 2404 Unparalleled Love
As the saying goes, gold and silver can be paid off in this world, but affection cannot be paid off...

I owe Mike too much, not just monetary benefits, but also human and personal connections.

I don't know why Mike is so nice to me, maybe it's just a matter of course between friends to outsiders, but I never think so.

I know that everything in this world is a relationship between being used and being used. I don't know what Mike wants, but I hope I can afford it...

"this way please."

Under the leadership of the person, he went straight to a capped jeep, opened the trunk and saw something that looked like ginseng, wrapped in red cloth to reveal some corners.

The ginseng wrapped in red cloth is thin and small, covered with beards, and next to it are two big and fat ginseng... I have never seen such a big ginseng.

These two big and thick ginseng trees seem to be bigger than those soaked in wine.

"This is a gift from the general, and this is a gift from Mr. Mike."

"Is this ginseng? Are you sure the small one is a gift and the big one is for Mike?" I asked worriedly, thinking that such things must not be mistaken!

Just now this guy pointed to the small ginseng as a gift, and the big ginseng was given to Mike, this is not right!

I know that when you ask someone to give a gift, you have to give something along the way, but generally the value will not exceed the gift.

"Yes, the small one is wild ginseng, at least 300 years old."

"What about the big one?"

"It's not wild." He explained cryptically, probably grafted from something like a radish.

I don't know much about ginseng, but it's better to ask about everything. If I send the wrong thing, it will be a joke.

"Understood, take the things out."

"Wait a minute, I'm going to get two boxes."

While no one was paying attention, I plucked a little wild life's beard, put it in my mouth and tasted it, it was quite sweet, it felt like a sweet radish.

I made some ginseng beards, and it felt bitter when I tasted it, which was not a taste at all.

As the saying goes, people should not be judged by their appearance. It seems that the same is true for ginseng. It is not that the bigger and smoother the better...

In a blink of an eye, the ginseng was packed into two boxes. The ginseng wrapped in red cloth is very small, but it is worth a lot if it can be wrapped in red cloth.

I put away the box and lit a cigarette, and dawdled outside for more than ten minutes, feeling that it was almost time before returning to the living room.

Mike and Chen Xinghan were drinking tea, and the atmosphere seemed to be very harmonious.

"I have received the gift. General Chen has specially prepared two copies." I said with a smile. It seemed that I was speaking to Mike, but in fact I was speaking to Chen Xinghan.

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Chen Xinghan waved his hands again and again, but there was a smile on his face.

In some scenes, the words should be said beautifully. When someone gives something, you should let others know that you appreciate it. One sentence can make people feel at ease.

After saying the polite words, I turned and left. It was already six o'clock in the afternoon, so I took out my phone and called Fox.

There was a busy signal of waiting on the phone, and I was looking forward to it, but no one answered the phone.

I called several times but no one answered. I don't know where the fox went. Why didn't he answer the phone?
At this moment, the second uncle returned to the living room. He rubbed his hands together with a smile on his face. I knew he needed someone to start the conversation.

"Second Uncle, are the food and drink ready?"

"Everything is ready, let's go now?" The second uncle asked tentatively, and Mike stood up without saying a word.

As soon as he stood up, Chen Xinghan stood up immediately, and the atmosphere seemed very relaxed, as if they were old friends for many years.

In fact, interests are like a shackle, which can lock people in and connect different people together.

There are two tables of wine and food prepared in the restaurant, only four seats are left on one table, and more seats are reserved on the other table.

After some courtesies, everyone was seated, my second uncle and I were in company, and Mike and Chen Xinghan took the seats.

"Add a few stools, let Jennifer and the others come over too." Mike said calmly, but his tone was not a question but an order.

"OK!" I immediately got up to add a stool, and the second uncle had already started pouring wine for them.

I know that Mike is protecting the relationship, just like I took Dabing and Huben, no matter where I go, I will sit and eat together.

Soon Jennifer and the others came over for dinner, the table was full, and the atmosphere became more and more harmonious after a few glasses of wine.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the soldiers at the next table. Their eyes were always looking this way, and I felt that the atmosphere at their table was a bit dull.

If my second uncle is alone in charge of accompanying drinks after I leave, I know that it is fine for him to be alone, and I also need to maintain the feelings of my friends!

"Mike, General Chen, I went to have a drink with my friends, long time no see."

"Go, your second uncle and I will accompany Mike, let's drink two more glasses." Chen Xinghan waved his hand proactively, and Mike nodded slightly.

In fact, people who lead people to do things know how to maintain relationships. They know my purpose. In a narrow sense, we are all the same kind of people.

I quietly came to Dabing's table with a wine glass, with a smirk on my face.

"Hey, what are you guys doing, save a seat for me, do you want me to eat standing up?"

I made a joke on purpose, and all of a sudden the whole table exploded with smiles on their faces.

"There is your seat, and it will be reserved for you all the time!" Da Bing immediately pointed to an empty seat, but unexpectedly, it was the main seat in the middle.

"It's almost the same." I sat down with a smile, I have been looking forward to this moment for a long time.

"Actually, when you're not around, we reserve a seat for you every time we eat." Huben scratched his head silly, but these words pierced his heart!

For a moment, I felt sour in my heart. These guys are still the same, they haven't changed at all!

"Don't say anything, drink!" I picked up the glass and filled it up, and everyone raised their glasses together, and drank it all in one gulp!

"Well, who knows where Misu is? Has she changed her phone?" I asked in a low voice, and glanced at everyone present.

"She has returned to China, don't you have her new number?" Da Bing looked at me curiously, and everyone else also looked curiously.

"No! Give me one quickly!"

I immediately called Hulizi's number, waited for a few seconds, and was connected.

"Who is it?" A fox's voice came from the other end of the phone, and a big stone fell to my heart.

"It's me, where are you?"

"I'm at home, do you still know how to call me? Are you fooling around with girls in Hawaii?"

Hu Lizi was teasing as soon as he opened his mouth. For some reason, it sounded extraordinarily friendly, and there was a warm current surging in his heart.

"No, it's inconvenient to contact when doing things outside, and there is no signal at sea." I explained casually. When I was working with Mike, I didn't have so much freedom.

"Why is there a signal now?"

"I'm in Xiaomengla. I'm drinking with Dabing and the others. I haven't been able to call you. I didn't expect you to change your number."

"Oh! Drink!" The fox said in a long voice, obviously there was something in his words.

"When will you come back?"

"I don't want to go back. I don't like to work for anyone except you, and I don't even like that pig butcher."

Fox's tone changed immediately, I knew there must be a reason for her leaving, but fortunately everything is better now.

"The butcher is dead, everything is different now, the casino still lacks a proprietress, are you interested in finding out?"

I said something with a smile, which made Da Bing and the others all stare wide-eyed, and all of them had a smirk on their faces.

"Really? Then I have to think about it!"

"Of course! It's just that I can't be here. A lot of things have happened. Now I'm waiting for the lady boss to take her place!"

I joked with a smile, I want to stay and live a fairy life, but I know I can't stop yet.

"Little Shackle, you are amazing! Did Mike from Hawaii help you?"

"Smart as you are!"

"Okay then, I'll go back in a few days, and I'll save the place of the proprietress!"

"Of course I keep it for you, otherwise who else can I give it to? Right?"

"I thought you were going to keep it for Sister Dan."

"Pfft..." I couldn't hold back and sprayed out, this kind of joke is not allowed!
When I talk about Sister Dan, I think of her wearing a pair of flip flops, eating melon seeds with her legs crossed... and the appearance of cursing people with a loud voice.

I gave Sister Dan a chance, in fact, to let others know that I, Xiong Sanming, am not a cold and heartless person.

"You drink, hang up first!"

"Okay, waiting for your return!"

After hanging up the phone, I felt much better. I greeted Dabing and the others to continue drinking. I really don’t have much time left!
