my old life

Chapter 2477
I never imagined that I would be sitting in the seat of the whale shark, let alone that someone would light a cigar for me, but it all made me feel even more nervous!

"Thank you." I took the lit cigar, but felt my fingers trembling.

For some reason, his usually stable hands trembled slightly, feeling cold and stiff, not as soft as usual.

The performance at this moment surprised me, when did I become so cowardly?I have seen everything in the rivers and lakes, but I have never been afraid!
I took two puffs of the cigar vigorously, trying my best to calm myself down, and I can't let people look down on me when I get back to my state!

I know they have a purpose to be polite to me, I believe that there is no purpose in this world to treat a person well, and there is no reasonless bad...

"Mike, what can he bring me?" Mr. Cruz asked in Chinese, which made me feel better.

I know the way of value very well. Mike can bring me here, which means that it is valuable, and my hanging heart is also put back in my stomach.

Before that, I didn't know what to face, but now I know, all the associations were instantly broken, and only the reality remained before my eyes.

"He can kill the whale shark." Mike answered crisply, but I was taken aback!
I thought Mike was going crazy?What is he going to do?I never said I could kill a whale shark, never!
For a moment, I couldn't believe my ears, and I was completely stunned, completely stunned!

"Can he?" Cruz's expression didn't change, and I couldn't see any information from his eyes.

I know Mr. Cruz won't believe it, not even myself!

"He's my friend and I'm sure he can do it... also he's from the same country as the whale shark."

"Mike, you should know that I never accept any promises." Mr. Cruz rolled his eyelids, and the words were clearly threatening.

"Please rest assured, boss, I know." Mike replied respectfully, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Can you replace the whale shark?" Cruz turned to look at me, and his eyes made me feel like I was on pins and needles.

"Me?" I swallowed secretly, I stood up and wanted to explain, but when I opened my mouth to explain, it was like hitting Mike in the face!

What Mike said in person just now was so convincing, it was like giving me eye drops. I knew it in my heart, but there was nothing I could do.

"I will do my best." I gave an ambiguous answer, and now I can only give one such answer.

It is impossible for me to promise anything. Just now Cruz also said that he never believes in promises. Now I can only bear the bullet and carry it on.

"Why did you do this? Give me a reason." Cruz looked at me directly, and I was dumbfounded when I met his eyes.

I have no reason to kill the whale shark at all, I don't even know who he is, how can I kill the whale shark?

I know that I can't hesitate at this moment, because hesitation is an expression of lack of confidence, and I can't let Mike ruin this scene!

"For my friend...Mike!" I replied firmly, at this moment I was thinking about those friends of Little Mengla.

I am willing to give everything for my friends, even though my second uncle has warned me countless times, I will still put my feelings first!
"GOOD, I hope your friendship lasts forever." Mr. Cruz nodded and looked away.

Hearing this, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and unknowingly, cold sweat came down my body. I knew that I had fallen into a routine today.

That's why Mike didn't tell me in advance, he didn't mean to ask for my opinion at all, and I couldn't refuse him...

In a daze, I was about to kill the whale shark, an extremely powerful opponent I had never met, and I didn't even know anything about him...

"Young people, relax, I'm not unreasonable."

"understood."

Mr. Cruz waved his hand, which was an obvious signal. I stood up and glanced at Mike, but he didn't stand up.

I was stunned for a while, should I go or not?
If I want to leave, Mike will flash away. If I don't leave, I will go against Cruz's wishes. What the hell is this?

I stood there without moving, my eyes were on Mike all the time, I desperately needed his expression.

Mike sat on the sofa with a calm face, and everyone's eyes were on me. At this moment, I made a bold decision!

I got up and stood behind Mike. I didn't continue to sit on the sofa but I didn't leave either. I couldn't get away from Mike anyway.

Because Mike is the most important person to me, because he controls everything about Xiaomengla, and he controls the safety and tranquility of all my friends!
I hate the feeling of being controlled by others the most in my life, but this time I don't hate it, because this is the path I chose, even if I am on my knees, I will go on!

"Mike, don't let me down."

"It must be as you wish."

Mike stood up and bowed respectfully, and I followed suit to show respect, my whole body was chilly.

As the saying goes, you can’t get off a boat if you get on it, and now I’m not only on a boat, but I also feel like I’m going to sail…

"Eagle Eyes!"

I was called before I left the room. I looked over my shoulder and saw that it was George.

"Take the cigar, it's a top Cuban cigar, don't disappoint Mr. Cruz's gift."

"Got it." I turned my head back and picked up the cigar, feeling like my whole body was about to freeze.

The moment I walked out the door, I was relieved, but there was still a big stone in my heart, because Mike sold me!

He told me to kill the whale shark, which wasn't an option, which gave me a headache and made me a little bit lost.

"Hawkeye, why were you so nervous just now?" Mike asked nonchalantly, and I quietly rolled my eyes.

"I can't say it, it feels like an instinctive reaction."

"What kind of person do you think Mr. Cruz is?" Mike asked with a smile. This was the second time he asked this question.

"I can't see clearly."

"It's okay if you don't see clearly, he is not someone you and I can guess." Mike said something relaxed, and this answer made me a little confused.

I really wanted to ask what he meant just now, but I held back because I knew I had no right to refuse.

It doesn't really matter whether Mike told me in advance, and he didn't need to ask for my opinion, but he made me feel driven!
Mike is such a good at winning people's hearts, how could he not care about my thoughts?How could he mess up the relationship with each other?
He has always said 'trust your friends', he has always defined each other as friends, but how can I trust him now?
"Hawkeye, I believe you can kill the whale shark and replace him."

"Can I? I haven't thought about it that way, and I don't even know what kind of person he is." I looked dumbfounded, and my heart was heavy.

"Maybe you've seen him, but you don't know who he is."

"Oh? Why do you say that?" I asked curiously. Could it be that I know whale sharks?

"Because no one has seen his real appearance, he hides very deeply."

When I heard this, I suddenly thought of the eight-faced ghost, but after thinking about it carefully, it was wrong. How could the eight-faced ghost be a whale shark?

The strength of the whale shark must be very strong. Even if he is proficient in various disguises, the eight-faced ghost is still far behind him.

In fact, it is easy to judge a person's pattern. From the details in life and the people he contacts, one can completely distinguish a person's realm.

Generally speaking, if you look at the three closest friends around a person, if you take it all together, you can see that the person's pattern and realm are basically the same.

In a sense, vision and structure have nothing to do with money. Many demolition upstarts have not had the process of reaping monetary benefits, so their ideas and levels will not improve much.

"Are you confident?"

"Mike, I will do my best no matter what, you know what I mean." I said every word very clearly, and I was ready to accept all consequences.

"Everything is unpredictable, how do you know you can't succeed if you haven't tried it?"

"I mean if I fall, then..."

"Your friend is my friend. We will succeed, won't we?" Mike interrupted me directly, with another meaning in his words.

"Yes, we can definitely do it!"

In fact, Mike pushed me to promise to kill the whale shark. If not, he will not escape the responsibility. Mr. Cruz will not let him go easily.

This time, not only did I have no way out, Mike also had no way out!
When he decided to swallow the whale shark's share, he didn't intend to leave a way out, but I always feel that his decision is a bit hasty.

Maybe Mike has other plans, I don't know what he really thinks, I can't see through him at this moment...
