Open hours

Chapter 29

Early the next morning, He Yirou rushed to He Dingxi's house to pay New Year's greetings.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Ning Jue on the balcony doing Tai Chi with He Jun, and her jaw almost dropped in shock.

"This, that, this..." He Yirou hurriedly looked around, with a look of seeing a ghost on his face.

Ning Jue also recognized He Yirou who had met him once, and winked at her through the glass.

Even so, He Yirou still couldn't believe her eyes.She looked in Ning Jue's direction and muttered to herself: "I... Is the CP I'm drinking real?"

"What's true?" He Dingxi's haunted voice suddenly sounded behind He Yirou: "Leave the gift, but you can leave."

He Yirou shivered involuntarily, she was as far-sighted as she was, and she was already worried that if she accidentally broke the boss's big secret, it would affect her pursuit of dreams in the entertainment industry.

But soon, He Yirou thought of a more serious problem: "The company plans to let me tie you up in the future, so how can I suck your blood?"

"How about changing the route for you?" He Dingxi brought a plate of cherries to the terrace, turned around and said to He Yirou with a half-smile: "How about the mysterious benefactor and the beautiful canary? "

When Zhao Rongrong saw He Yirou coming, he was in a hurry to play mahjong.He Dingxi played mahjong only a handful of times, and his mahjong skills were really rare, so he asked Ning Jue to play for him.

Ning Jue's mahjong is not very good, but the victory is because of his good luck, and he started to kill the Quartet not long after playing.He glanced at the cards on the table, turned around and said to He Dingxi: "It's agreed in advance, if you lose, it's yours, and if you win, it's mine."

The old god He Dingxi sat on the ground behind Ning Jue to watch the fun, and said with a smile: "Let go of the fun, brother has plenty of money."

After a few rounds of mahjong, He Yirou had already lost so much that she almost lost her pants.She pretended to be calm and observed Ning Jue and He Dingxi who were opposite her, her mood constantly jumping back and forth between "Yeah, bitch" and "I'm fucking dead".

When such complex emotions are shown on her face, she looks like a female psychopath.

"I said." Ning Jue raised his eyelids and glanced at He Yirou, then asked He Dingxi in a low voice: "Is your company really planning to create a beauty goddess for her?"

"It's too late to say anything now." He Dingxi whispered in Ning Jue's ear, "The marketing money has already been spent."

Ning Jue shook his head and said with a smile: "Sooner or later, this person's design will collapse."

At this moment, He Dingxi's mobile phone on the mahjong table rang.Ning Jue glanced at the sound subconsciously, and saw Xiao Keran's name flashing on the screen.

Ning Jue played a card and turned his eyes away as if nothing had happened.

He Dingxi also saw that the call was from Xiao Keran, he picked up the phone, got up and went into the study.

"Brother, where are you?" As soon as the phone was connected, Xiao Keran's enthusiastic voice came from the other end.

In the past, He Dingxi hated hearing the name "brother" from Xiao Keran's mouth the most. These two words were like a gap, clearly separating him and Xiao Keran.

From one end of the ditch to the other end of the ditch, "We can't do it" is densely written.

He Dingxi came to the window and pushed it open. The cold air outside the window was wrapped in the unique humidity of coastal cities, whizzing towards his face.

"Sister at home, happy new year!" He Dingxi said.

Xiao Keran laughed as soon as he heard it, and asked: "Why are you so peaceful this year, there is no movement at all."

It was only then that He Dingxi remembered that he used to call Xiao Keran on the first day of the new year, but for some reason he forgot last night.

Obviously Xiao Keran just mentioned this casually, and she changed the subject without waiting for He Dingxi's answer.

Xiao Keran said cheerfully: "Zhang Xiaoli lost a bet with me a few years ago, and he will invite us to Danan Island on the fifth day of the lunar new year. Wan Zhiming and Wen Jianing are here, do you have time to come out and play?"

The few people Xiao Keran mentioned are all friends of He Dingxi who are relatively close in the circle, and they often meet in private.Zhang Xiaoli invested in a small-budget romance film this year and achieved good box office results. Not long ago, he bought a large villa overlooking the sea on Danan Island.

He Dingxi has heard Zhang Xiaoli mention the matter of the big villa more than 800 times.He Dingxi rarely had leisure this year, and he hadn't seen Xiao Keran for a while, so his first reaction was to readily accept the appointment.

But he suddenly thought of Ning Jue in the living room, and suddenly turned a corner when the words came to his lips.

He Dingxi said: "This year is not very convenient, next time there will be a chance."

Hearing what He Dingxi said, although Xiao Keran was a little surprised, he would not force it.She smiled heartily on the other end of the phone: "Don't regret it if you don't come, that's it, hang up."

The relationship between Ning Jue and Xiao Keran is also very close, logically speaking, it is not impossible to invite Ning Jue to go together.It's just that He Dingxi has long known that Ning Jue has some unusual thoughts about Xiao Keran. He has always been a generous person, but this time he is unwilling to create an opportunity for Ning Jue to get along with Xiao Keran.

The sound of mahjong in the living room quieted down at some point.He Dingxi didn't want to delve into his own thoughts any more, he put away his phone, opened the door and walked out.

"Why don't you play anymore..."

As soon as He Dingxi walked out of the study, he met the uninvited guest sitting on the sofa head-on, frost fell on his face in an instant.

He Dingxi is a smiling tiger, typically hot on the outside and cold on the inside, showing neither emotions nor anger.It is rare for Ning Jue to see him express his dislike for a person so bluntly on his face.

The visitor also saw He Dingxi, he stood up unhurriedly, came to He Dingxi with three swaying steps, raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Happy New Year, Dingxi."

He Dingxi lowered his head and sneered, raised his eyes to look directly into He Anbei's eyes: "So you are still alive."

"Yeah, I've let you down." He Anbei sighed pretendingly, and looked at He Dingxi carefully, his eyes were as bitter as ice: "I heard that our big star is back, even if I lie on my bed In the gutter, I have to crawl back to see my dearest brother..."

"Anbei!" He Jun shouted, interrupting He Anbei's bastard words.

He Anbei turned his head to look at He Jun, and said innocently, "Dad, don't worry, I was just joking with Dingxi."

Ning Jue was standing beside He Yirou, and he was also a little surprised at this moment.Unexpectedly, He Dingxi has an older brother, who seems to be a bit antisocial.

He Anbei is only two years older than He Dingxi, they are about the same size and look alike.Probably because of being too thin, He Anbei's cheeks are sunken, his eyes are slightly protruding, and his skin is a dark yellow color that has been sub-healthy for a long time, making him look very sinister.

Like moss that grows in the backlight all year round, it is damp and sticky.

He Dingxi couldn't tolerate He Anbei running wild at home, so he said unceremoniously to He Anbei: "Now that your home is back and people have seen it, can you go?"

"Don't worry, we haven't done business yet." He Anbei raised his eyebrows and glanced at He Dingxi, with a creepy smile on his face again: "Dingxi, usually you are not at home, I have to take care of the elders by myself , the cost is naturally higher. You see, some time ago, I took my parents to New Zealand to play around..."

Zhao Rongrong was also in a hurry, she seemed to be a different person, and said sternly: "An Bei, please don't say a few words!"

He Anbei immediately raised his hands high and made a gesture of surrender with a playful smile.

He Dingxi didn't have the time to watch He Anbei act, he didn't even look at He Anbei, and asked, "What do you want, just tell me."

He Anbei had been a monster for a long time, and finally waited for He Dingxi's words, so he said flatly, "I want money."

"You really are a noble person who forgets things too much." He Dingxi finally condescended to give He Anbei a look when he heard this.It's just that those eyes looked contemptuously as if they were looking at a puddle of mud on the ground, even a Bodhisattva could get angry with such eyes.

He Dingxi asked He Anbei: "What did you say back then, do you need me to remind you again?"

He Anbei's growth experience is different from that of He Dingxi, who had a smooth journey. He dropped out of school at the age of 17 and began to mix in the society. In a few years, he worked as a thug, opened a company, worked as a pimp, and spent two years in prison. Complete.

He Dingxi has been filming since he was a child, and has accumulated some savings over the years, so he can only show up to him time and time again.The old He family has been respectable for most of their lives, but fell into a bottomless pit that cannot be filled like He Anbei, and within a few years, the family was pulled into a very embarrassing situation.

Five years ago when He Anbei was released from prison after serving his sentence, He Dingxi not only used his salary to invest in a film and television distribution company for him, but also brought him a lot of resources in order to allow him to make a living.Unexpectedly, He Anbei went to Macau with a rich second generation who had nothing to do, and when they came back, they became obsessed with gambling. Not to mention the company went bankrupt soon, and owed an eight-figure gambling debt, which was chased and chopped off by the creditor. Four streets.

In the end, He Anbei went home to find He Dingxi to clean up the mess as before. This time, the worst quarrel ever broke out between the two brothers.

——Okay, being a big star is different.Do you think it's rare for me to be a family with you?Don't worry, after giving me this money, I will never have anything to do with you surnamed He again!

Of course He Dingxi didn't want to wipe He Anbei's ass again, but He Anbei actually tricked He Yirou into paying debts to the underworld.Fortunately, He Dingxi raised enough money at the last minute, and brought He Yirou back in full.

Hearing He Dingxi mention this matter, sporadic guilt flashed across He Anbei's face.But this emotion didn't last long, and he soon laughed shamelessly again.

He smiled indifferently and said, "If you don't want to give money, you won't give it. What are you doing with these old almanacs?"

As he said that, he turned his gaze to He Yirou: "I heard that our sister Yirou is going to become a star and earn a lot of money? I haven't seen you for a few years. Sister Yirou has come out so beautiful."

Looking at He Anbei's face, He Yirou remembered the experience that he was almost sold overseas to shoot a third/level/movie, and couldn't help shivering in fright.

It was inconvenient for Ning Jue to intervene in He Dingxi's housework, but he still took a step forward and let He Yirou stand behind him calmly.

This scene naturally fell in the eyes of He Anbei. He approached Ning Jue with a friendly smile, and said in a nonchalant manner: "Hey, there is another handsome guy here, is Yirou's boyfriend? Hey, little girl Handsome guy, it’s not okay to show no signs of being with our tender partner, I don’t think it’s better..."

Before He Anbei finished his obscene words, He Dingxi kicked him from behind and knocked him to the ground.Over the years, He Anbei's body has long been emptied by pornography, gambling and drugs, and he was easily kicked several meters by He Dingxi.

"Anbei!"

No matter how bastard He Anbei is, he is his son after all. Zhao Rongrong saw He Anbei fell to the ground and couldn't stand up, so he hurried forward to help him.

He Anbei didn't appreciate this, he pushed away Zhao Rongrong's hand and struggled to stand up.He turned his head and spit on the ground, and then rushed towards He Dingxi like crazy!

With a crisp sound of "crash", the mahjong table was knocked to the ground, and colorful mahjong was scattered all over the ground in an instant.

He Anbei pushed He Dingxi to the ground, and mercilessly punched him in the stomach, the smile on his face could no longer be maintained.

His eyes were red, as if all the camouflage had been torn off in an instant, his eyes were paranoid and crazy: "He Dingxi! Don't forget whose life you stole! You owe me your whole life!"

He Dingxi received the punch without avoiding it, and then swung his elbow towards He Anbei's face.When He Anbei was stunned by his elbow, he turned around and pushed him to the ground.

He Dingxi wiped the corner of his mouth and said, "Really? Then I don't mind owing you more."

He Anbei was so thin that only his bones remained, how could he be He Dingxi's opponent.Right now, he is being unilaterally suppressed by He Dingxi, and he can only yell unwillingly: "He Dingxi, my M, I will make you pay the price!"

He Dingxi sneered, reached out and patted He Anbei's face, and whispered in his ear, "I'm waiting."
