Dragon Tribe: Still Thinking Until Now

"Okay, Lu Mingze..."

"Hey, hey, don't be angry, honey. Mingze can do whatever he wants. Our family is rich and powerful anyway. We won't starve to death even if we don't take the civil service exam. Besides, you see, wasn't I a civil servant before? Didn't I go into business and open a foot massage parlor?" The middle-aged man who had been silent and playing with his mobile phone acted as a peacemaker. He had a sleek side-parted hair, and his fleece-collared shirt was tucked into his trousers. His trouser legs rustled in the wind when he walked, and a bunch of keys hung on the buckle of his belt.

"Then can our Mingze be like you? He went to university in the United States and is an absolute elite! Now our country emphasizes having an international perspective and having the status of a returnee. You can get two points higher than others when you become a civil servant!" The middle-aged woman still thinks that making games is not a proper job.

"Okay, Mingze, just promise your mom that you will come back after you graduate from Austin University. I will find a connection for you to work at the tax bureau." The man wiped the screen of his phone with his sleeve. He has been with his wife for decades, how could he not know her temper? Middle-aged women like to talk about family matters to enhance their presence in the family, even if she is wearing Hermès high heels and carrying a Gucci bag.

At this moment, he suddenly discovered that the middle-aged woman who had been chattering just now suddenly stopped, and his relatively well-behaved son also stopped inexplicably. In a moment, his wife and child were two body lengths behind him.

The man touched his sleek side-parted hair and glanced at the Rolex on his wrist that he bought for 50,000 yuan. Although no one was talking and it was quiet, he felt as if a peerless sword was coming towards him, bringing with it a murderous aura.

He raised his head and looked ahead on the path. His face, which was originally numb and gradually covered with wrinkles, seemed to be frozen like the surface of the Fei River this winter. Then, gradually, the ice melted, and all the wrinkles bloomed. He smiled, and his smile was like a crushed dogtail grass.

The person who appeared before him was his nephew who was very promising, so promising that he seemed to be from a completely different world from them.

The world is a huge makeshift team. Coincidences are everywhere. Maybe you are still feeling lucky that you have passed customs and boarded a flight to Istanbul today, but when you get off the plane, you find that your English teacher who has a sagging face due to excessive injection of hyaluronic acid is sitting in the terminal hall of Istanbul with a cup of Starbucks and smiles at you and says, "Who is here? Come here and let me test you on the difference between the words congratulation and celebrate."

Lu Mingfei was also a little confused. He thought this place was a bit far from his uncle's house, right? How could he bump into him?

To be honest, Lu Mingfei was a little scared. Last time in Tokyo, he teamed up with Ling and completely offended his aunt. Now their relationship was very strained. When they met, he didn't know whether he should point at each other's nose and say "Damn, I'm so unlucky to meet you today" or smile at each other, shake hands and ask each other "Have you eaten?" If you haven't eaten, your aunt will invite you back home, make the mattress and bedding for you, and let you go back to the small house where you have lived for more than ten years and wait for the hot steamed buns to come out of the pot.

Lu Mingfei was still in shock when his uncle quickly approached him.

The man opened his arms and hugged the boy standing in the cold wind like a skinny black bear that had just woken up from hibernation. "Not bad, you've taken good care of yourself, and you haven't lost weight." The uncle patted Lu Mingfei's shoulder vigorously, with a barely detectable tremor in his voice.

Wazhu opened her eyes wide and muttered softly, "Damn it, damn it, we're meeting the parents already?"

Chapter 527: I was young at that time (1)

"This girl is so pretty. Is she Mingfei's girlfriend?" The uncle was surprisingly reserved when talking to Lord Wa, and his choice of stance was very insightful. He deliberately separated his wife and nephew, so as to prevent the conflict that had finally been resolved over time from being exacerbated by inexplicable reasons.

Seeing the man's hypocritical attitude, Lu Mingfei felt sad that the relationship between uncle and nephew had become really estranged. Then he realized what his uncle was talking about. His heart rose to his throat. He just hoped that the little ancestor would not grit his teeth and use the Nine Yin White Bone Claw and shout "Old lecher, take your aunt's move", and then chop off Lu Gucheng's dog head and leave after the matter was done.

Lord Wa was also stunned for a moment. She hid beside Lu Mingfei with only half of her charming little face as peach blossom revealed. She looked at her uncle coquettishly, like an innocent little girl in an ivory tower.

“Mingfei, this kid did something big without making any noise, and returned home quietly without telling your uncle and aunt. If you had known that he brought a girlfriend back, your aunt would have cleaned up the house and bought some lobster, abalone, bird’s nest, etc. to entertain her.” The uncle and Lu Mingfei were arm in arm. At first, he didn’t notice it, but now he looked carefully and realized that the coats his nephew was wearing were actually high-end products hand-made from abroad. The watch that was faintly visible under the rolled-up cuffs seemed to be a limited edition Vacheron Constantin of an unknown price.

He felt deeply moved that his nephew was now stylish and promising. With his look, he was a top-notch celebrity wherever he went. His wife and son used to like bullying him, so it was no wonder that Ming Fei was reluctant to go home after returning to China.

The aunt beside him was holding Lu Mingze's sleeve and walking in the innermost part, with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking. The little fat boy raised his head several times to look at his cousin's profile, mumbling something but saying nothing.

Lu Mingfei didn’t care about their mental state. He forced a smile but was actually terrified. He said to his uncle, “No, no, she is not my girlfriend, she is my sister.”

The uncle blinked and patted Lu Mingfei on the back: "Who are you trying to fool? Your only child certificate is still in the second drawer of the bedside table in my bedroom. Can you have a sister?"

Wazhu poked her head out from behind Lu Mingfei's arm, stuck out her tongue, and smiled slightly. The skin on her face was as white as a white camellia. She said, "Uncle, Mingfei and I are indeed not boyfriend and girlfriend yet. His girlfriend is Uesugi Eriya, a Japanese girl. I am his senior sister, and they all call me Yiyi at school."

"It's you, senior sister. Hello, senior sister, hello..." The uncle pinched Lu Mingfei's shoulder hard, meaning that after not seeing you for a few months, not only did you change your girlfriend, but you even found a backup plan?

The last person they saw in Tokyo was Zero. Obviously, given Zero's appearance, he couldn't be a Japanese. There was only one explanation, that is, in just a few months, Lu Mingfei had a new girl by his side.

Lu Mingfei's eyes twitched. What do you mean we are not boyfriend and girlfriend yet? Can we become official couples? You are already old and still want to eat young grass? It is said that a woman who is three years older than her husband will marry a rich man. My dear little ancestor, you are 33,000 yuan older than me. I am afraid that the rich man will beat me to death on the spot.

The group of five people started to stroll upstream again. Uncle Mingfei said, "You and Mingze are here. I will go to the Regent Hotel to set up a few tables in the evening and invite all your classmates and friends who happen to be in the city these days to have a meal."

Lu Mingfei glanced at Lord Wa, who nodded. He turned to his uncle and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll listen to you, uncle."

In the final analysis, Lu Mingfei's dissatisfaction with this family almost all came from the unfair treatment his aunt had given him over the years. But he couldn't really say he hated her, after all, they had lived under the same roof for such a long time, and even a flower or a blade of grass would have some feelings for them. If he could ease the relationship with his aunt a little, Lu Mingfei would be happy to see it happen.

Besides, the Regent Hotel has been controlled by mercenaries hired by Su Enxi from Siberia during this period. It can be said that all of them are Lu Mingfei's people from top to bottom, so there is no need to worry about the sudden visit of the hunting team from the academy.

"Where has Mingfei been making his fortune recently? I haven't heard any news from him since we last met in Tokyo." My uncle doesn't hold a grudge.

Last time at Grand Kitchen, Aunt finally saw her husband's career flourishing, and she seemed to be able to hold her head high. She even looked at Lu Mingfei with an eager look, as if she wanted to get back at Qiao Weini for all the grievances she had suffered. But Her Highness the Princess didn't buy it. With just a glance, a few actions, and a few words, she shattered Aunt's confidence that she had built up with great difficulty, and completely broke the defense of this middle-aged woman who was used to being a boss at home.

Logically, the two families should have completely broken up after something like this, but the Lu family only has two children, Lu Mingfei and Lu Mingze. It's impossible for him, as an uncle, to just ignore his nephew just because he has achieved success, right?

"I can't say I'm getting rich, but I'm investigating projects all over the world." Lu Mingfei smiled bitterly, "We're in finance like this, mergers and acquisitions, investments, and a lot of thankless work."

"Can you wear a Vacheron Constantin when inspecting a company project? This watch must be worth hundreds of thousands, right?" The uncle is also a connoisseur of value. Last time in Tokyo, he was so busy holding his wife back from acting arrogantly in other people's stores that he didn't pay attention to Lu Mingfei's outfit. This time, after he calmed down, he realized that his nephew was doing much better than he had imagined. This watch was obviously very expensive and could be worth a lifetime salary for many people.

Lu Mingfei was startled and pulled his sleeves down without leaving any trace.

He has been wearing the watch given by Ling. Last time when he was fighting with Herzog, it fell on the container. Later, it was found by Her Royal Highness the Princess.

He didn't dare say that this thing was worth two million US dollars. With his aunt's petty, mercenary and sarcastic nature, she would be very angry if she knew that his nephew treated a watch as if it were several houses and cars.

"I bought this fake watch from Xibei in Huaqiangbei. I've only been interning for a few days, how can I use a real watch?" Lu Mingfei smiled awkwardly. His uncle grabbed Lu Mingfei's shoulder and said, "Why would a real man use a fake watch? Go home and take my real Montblanc! You buy your own clothes when you go out. If you use a fake one, your friends will laugh at you."

"Lu Gucheng, you..." Auntie finally couldn't hold it in. She wanted to say that when you bought that watch, I felt heartbroken for several months. I picked it out after careful consideration. How could I just give it away as a gift?

But when the middle-aged woman saw her husband's cold eyes, her heart suddenly trembled, and the words on her lips turned into "Ming Fei has millions of event funds every year, how could he be interested in your things."

"Can the club's funds be the same as your own? Don't you know how the big boss fell when I was in the tax bureau?" The uncle made the decision with a big wave of his hand, "Okay, that's it, buy another one to show that Fei Mingze will get one!"

"Me too?" The little fat boy finally smiled a little, but when he saw his cousin's female companion looking at him with a smile, he shrank his neck back like a mouse seeing a cat.

In Lu Mingze's impression, none of the girls following his cousin were simple characters. In high school, Su Xiaoqiang was known as the Little Fairy. Her beauty was not to be called the most beautiful in the country, but she was also beautiful. She dominated Shilan for three years, and her legend has been circulating until graduation. Later, I heard that Chen Motong came to the farewell party of the literature club. She called herself Nuonuo. She was like an angel with a sharp sword. Her aura crushed the whole audience and even the Little Fairy was eclipsed.

The Russian girl I met by chance in Tokyo last year was even more arrogant, and she kept talking about millions of dollars.

Although Lu Mingze is vulgar and lustful, he is really very open-minded and knows when to show off and when to act like a good boy.

“If you have it, then you can’t sell it and mess around with it outside this time!” Auntie raised her eyebrows and glared at Lu Mingze, “No matter how big our family fortune is, you can squander it all!”

Seeing that his uncle was in high spirits, Lu Mingfei couldn't refuse, so he had to smile and say that he would rather obey than disobey.

As he said this, he lowered his head and sent a message on his phone to the group of his brothers in the literature club and his former classmates, asking them to come to the Regent Hotel for dinner in the evening and that he would treat them.

The first person to reply to the message was actually Zhao Menghua. He said in the group that Brother Lu was still in Hefei. I missed the last gathering at Su Xiaoqiang’s house in Kunshan, so he had to save a seat for me this time.

Lu Mingfei's eyebrows twitched, and he thought to himself, Zhao Menghua, how dare you show up? Do you know how much trouble you have brought to Su Xiaoqiang?

It was just a coincidence that the Temple of Solomon targeted Su Xiaoqiang's family's business. Zhao Menghua was a branch of a mixed-race family in China. There might not be a single mixed-race person in the three generations before and after, but there were always some capable people in a clan. Zhao Xuzhen, a knight of the Temple, and Zhao Xuyang, a squire of the Temple, were related to Zhao Menghua.

Some time ago, Zhao Xuzhen was trying to deal with Bai Shanglu and Jiang Wanzhi in Kunshan. He invested tens of billions of dollars and saw some profits. As he was short of funds, he prepared to use his previous tricks to extort some goods from the local tyrants. It was because of Zhao Menghua's recommendation that he took a fancy to Su Xiaoqiang's Su's Mining.

But it seemed that Boss Zhao had no intention of doing so. Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment and then sent a message in the group, "Okay, then I'll be there at 7 o'clock. I won't leave until I'm drunk today."

The brothers in the literature club and classmates of that class all admired their senior brother Lu's glorious deeds in entering the college entrance examination. When they heard that Lu Mingfei was going to treat them, they quickly expressed in the group that they must show their support.

Liu Miaomiao joked with Chen Wenwen, "Aren't you and Zhao Menghua going to church tonight to chant? Why don't you go home until you're drunk? Aren't you worried that God will doubt your piety?"

Zhao Menghua continued, "Wine and meat pass through the intestines, but Jehovah sits in his heart."

It can be regarded as a fusion of Chinese and Western styles.

Fate is really as stubborn as basalt thousands of meters underground. This time, Zhao Menghua had no chance to set foot on the subway to Nibelungen, which belonged to Xia Mi, but he finally believed in religion. Because that time at Six Flags in Chicago, although Lu Mingfei and Norton gave them time to leave the scene before the battle, Boss Zhao couldn't hold back his urine, so he fell behind a few steps and solved the urgency in the public toilet in the amusement park. When he came out trembling, he saw the hero Lu staring at the monster with his fiery eyes and using a knife to chop monsters. He was almost scared to urinate frequently and urgently. Later, even though Teacher Masashi Toyama personally hypnotized him, he still had an impression in his subconscious mind. There was no choice but to use another trick, which was to make Zhao Menghua feel that he had seen God in his dream and God led him out of confusion.

Of course, this God is actually Lu Mingfei who beat up Norton and was beaten up by Norton.

While the chat group was arguing heatedly, Wazhu was already talking to her uncle with a smile that everyone loved. She said, "Uncle Mingfei was very popular with girls in the past, right? He was good-looking and talented, and there was a long line of senior and junior sisters in the academy who liked him."

In her normal state, Wazhu is a little Lolita with a baby face. No uncle can refuse a little Lolita's talk, and the same goes for uncles. Lu Gucheng said with a laugh, that's right, when Mingfei was studying at Shilan Middle School, he could find chocolates in his schoolbag every day, and that so-and-so, and that so-and-so, all wrote him love letters.

Lord Wa said with a smile that the junior brother used to be very romantic. He told me that he only had one girlfriend.

Uncle gave Lu Mingfei a look that said, "You can trust my good friend when he does things for you," and patted his chest and said, "You're overthinking it, girl. At that time, they all called Mingfei the most affectionate person in Shilan."

"I like affectionate boys the most." Lord Wa nodded, her long hair curling like clouds, her hands behind her back, slender like an iris blooming in the wind.

The fat boy was fascinated but secretly felt aggrieved, saying that people have the same destiny but different fates. Why can Lu Mingfei be this way or that way while I, Lu Mingze, have to be ordinary? Things may change over time, so don't bully the young man because he is poor!

At night, the Regent Hotel, which had been sparsely populated in recent days, suddenly opened its doors to welcome guests. The manager, who was invited back from vacation, led my uncle to the BALL ROOM on the second floor with a flattering face. The partitions here were removed and a dining hall was set up. There were not many people, only three or two tables, but there were quite a lot of things to do. There were also bands playing music and singing around. As soon as Lu Mingfei came in, he snapped his fingers and asked the saxophone player to change to Schindler's List.

"Alas, we had originally planned to invite Mingfei's classmates to the VIP restaurant and bar on the ninth floor executive floor, but some big boss from somewhere booked out the entire place, so even with connections they can't get in." The uncle sighed. Boss Lu Gucheng must be a little disappointed that his family had become wealthy but he couldn't show it off.

Auntie didn't want to attend such occasions, so she didn't come. Firstly, there were always some gossips in the school that said that she took money from Lu Mingfei's parents but didn't take good care of Lu Mingfei. It is said that the truth hurts people the most, and even middle-aged women don't want to be gossiped about behind their backs; secondly, when Lu Mingfei was just in the first year of high school, he was called a bastard and had a conflict and fight with someone, but Auntie forced Lu Mingfei to apologize to the other party and go to the other party's class to do duty. If Chu Zihang's mother Su Xiaoyan hadn't dressed up to support Senior Brother Lu, he might have been bullied. This matter was also widely circulated in Shilan Middle School. Everyone looked down on this woman and thought she was a vicious relative.

Anyway, it's no use coming here, so I might as well just ignore it and not be bothered by it.

Lu Mingze didn't care and was even eager to try.

At that time, all three girls of Shilan were in Lu Mingfei's class and they were all little fans of his cousin. I can definitely catch a glimpse of them at this gathering, right?

Chapter 528: I was young at that time (2)

I didn't feel anything when I was boarding school before, probably mainly because my aunt really didn't like Lu Mingfei and never gave the best life she could to the son of Qiao Weini and Lu Lincheng.

But today it seems that the uncle has become really rich. Every move he makes is served by a well-known young lady. The manager, who is not angry even when he is called back to work overtime, always pays attention to every move and expression of Mr. Lu, a celebrity in Hefei's business circle. No matter what his needs are, they will be met immediately.

In this way, his uncle could be considered a successful person who had a say in his past.

He has already caught a glimpse of the wonderful things behind that door, and from now on he will only crave more and more the power that such wealth brings.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the classmates arrived one after another. The first to come was Zhao Menghua, who drove a silver Lamborghini and carried Chen Wenwen, who was in a long skirt. Lu Mingfei's eyes lit up and he quickly got rid of the strange look his uncle gave him and Wa, and walked over to wish Zhao Menghua and Chen Wenwen a happy marriage.

Zhao Menghua looked very pleased with himself as he hugged Lu Mingfei. He lowered his voice and said in a rather cocky tone, "Brother Lu, how did you know that Wenwen and I were engaged?"

Lu Mingfei was stunned, then he slowly let go of Zhao Menghua and carefully looked at the number one handsome boy in Shilan Middle School who came with beauty and was a winner in life.

In just less than two years since 2010, Lu Mingfei has grown from a handsome boy next door to a powerful warrior on the dragon-slaying battlefield who can cut through Chicago and Tokyo with a pair of short arc knives.

Although Zhao Menghua did not have the blessing of dragon blood, the changes that happened to him were not that amazing, but he did grow from a Korean-style effeminate pretty boy into a handsome young man with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. The clothes he wore also quietly transformed from the Burberry and Diesel Chu Zihang imitation suit to a Prada imported Italian suit with a handmade wool shirt made in Scotland.

At this moment, people are young and reckless, with a promising future and countless beautiful possibilities in life. Unexpectedly, Zhao Menghua still chose to get engaged to Chen Wenwen while still in college, just like in another world.

Lu Mingfei smiled and patted Zhao Menghua on the chest. "Sure, Mr. Zhao!" He said, "When can we attend the wedding? You should be careful and don't leave the school as a family of three."

Chen Wenwen, who was leaning on Zhao Menghua's shoulder like a little bird, was shy. She clutched the corner of her clothes and lowered her head and said in a mosquito-like voice: "Oh, Senior Brother Lu, you are making fun of us again..."

Zhao Menghua was quite relaxed. He patted his girlfriend's hand and said, "Wenwen, you go find Liu Miaomiao and the others first. I'll chat with Lu Mingfei."

After sending the literary girl away, Mr. Zhao's true colors were revealed, with a rather lewd expression on his face.

"I heard that Brother Lu, you and Senior Sister Chen broke up?"

Lu Mingfei looked a little embarrassed. But last time when he went to Su Xiaoqiang's house for dinner, he announced to the public that he was indeed with Eri.

"He also got rid of Junior Sister Xia Mi who came later and found a Japanese sister-in-law for us?" Zhao Menghua whispered to Lu Mingfei in a low voice.

Lu Mingfei heard his junior sister yelling in his heart, "You are the one who was dumped, your whole family was dumped, senior brother, beat him to a pulp!"

He cleared his throat, chuckled twice and didn't deny it.

"When Su Xiaoqiang and the others were discussing behind our backs who was the top and who was the bottom between you and Chu Zihang, I told you, Brother Lu, that you and Chu Zihang were not in that kind of relationship at all!" Zhao Menghua looked righteous. Lu Mingfei sneered in his heart and said, "You kid think I don't know that you, Zhao Menghua, were the most enthusiastic about supporting the couple back then. You even paid the guy in the next class to write a novel in Chinese class. That guy wrote a gay novel about the two of us. It makes me angry just thinking about it."

"I was saying that you two were just shy back then, brother Lu. How could you not like girls?" Zhao Menghua said seriously, "I saw Chu Zihang posted a photo of him and his girlfriend on QQ. There were white flowers around them. It was a bit creepy to look at in the middle of the night."

Lu Mingfei was stunned, thinking that Chu Zihang and Su Qian should not be together now.

But it could also be a photo from the past.

He casually asked, "What flower?"
