Chapter 24 Biochemical Metamorphosis (1)
In the evening, under the leadership of Wu Qiaoyan, Chen Zhihua came to a larger restaurant for dinner. The food here was all Chaoshan cuisine. It was only at this time that Chen Zhihua realized that Wu Qiaoyan was from Chaoshan. In Guangdong, people in Chaoshan are known as the Jews in China. They have the ability to do business and make money, so many big businessmen come from Chaoshan, such as Hong Kong real estate tycoon Li Ka-shing, media tycoon Lin Boxin, etc., are all accomplished business people.
Speaking of authentic Chaoshan cuisine, this is the first time Chen Zhihua has. According to the saying, "Eat the mountains and eat the sea near the sea." Chaoshan area is close to the ocean, and the most common thing is seafood. However, Chaoshan people eat seafood more special. For example, the small rice fish less than the size of a small finger will be cooked in water and eat it in this way. It tastes very delicious. For example, there is a shellfish called blood clams that secrete a blood-red juice. Chaoshan people will eat it raw, which looks like eating blood.
Under Wu Qiaoyan's teaching, Chen Zhihua quickly learned how to eat these things, and the two people who were originally very strangers suddenly became much more familiar with each other.
"This is not delicious. Next time I will take you to another Chaoshan restaurant. That one is called "tart!" Wu Qiaoyan was very happy to see Chen Zhihua eating very quickly, and she felt very satisfied with leading people. "That restaurant is a brother of my father... Oh, it was run by a friend. The chef inside was invited from his hometown. His skills are really first-class."
"Okay, that's really something to try!" Chen Zhihua saw that he had become much familiar with Wu Qiaoyan, and couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Qiaoyan, you said before that your father didn't want you to come out to do things, why?"
"My dad, this is an old antique. He thinks that a woman should stay at home, then find a good husband to marry, and then take care of her husband and children in the future!" Wu Qiaoyan drank a glass of beer and said, "I don't like this. If I really listen to my dad's words and stay at home, how can I find a good husband?" I wonder if it was because of another drink, Wu Qiaoyan's face turned redder.
Looking at Wu Qiaoyan with a drunken mood, Chen Zhihua couldn't help but feel a little amused and asked again: "Your dad probably feels sorry for you too, this is understandable... Well, is it your only child?"
"Hey, why did you guess it?" Wu Qiaoyan stared at Chen Zhihua with wide eyes, and then filled the wine glasses of herself and Chen Zhihua again. Then, seeing that there was no wine in the bottle, she immediately asked the waiter to bring two bottles over.
At this time, Chen Zhihua could see that the originally gentle Wu Qiaoyan did not exactly match her appearance, and she was actually a more lively girl.
"Andy Lau, you knocked down four people alone that day. It's really amazing. Have you practiced martial arts?"
In Wu Qiaoyan's eyes, she did not seem to regard Chen Zhihua as her new boss as her boss, and she might only regard Chen Zhihua as a friend. She called out "Andai Andy Lau" without Chen Zhihua's consent, without any restraint. However, Chen Zhihua did not take this to heart. Instead, she liked this feeling of being together casually. After thinking about it, she said: "Actually, I didn't specialize in martial arts, but it was just because I had learned self-defense from an elder when I was a child!"
"Oh, so that's how it is!" Wu Qiaoyan glanced at Chen Zhihua enviously, "My father knows martial arts, but he never wants to teach me, no matter how I beg him."
When Chen Zhihua heard Wu Qiaoyan, a delicate girl, say that she wanted to learn martial arts, she couldn't help but feel a little funny: "What kind of martial arts are you a girl?"
"Why can't girls learn it? If I had understood martial arts, I wouldn't have been so embarrassed that night."
Chen Zhihua never dared to ask Wu Qiaoyan what happened that night. When she heard her take the initiative to mention it, she immediately asked with the help of the situation: "What happened that night? Why did those guys do this... to you like this?"
Wu Qiaoyan thought for a while and said, "Actually, I don't know exactly what the matter is, but those people are my dad's opponents... Well, you don't understand these things after you say them, so don't just stop talking about them!"
Chen Zhihua is a smart person. When he heard Wu Qiaoyan's tone, he knew that there was something hidden. However, since the others refused to say it, he was embarrassed to force it. He could only smile and stopped asking anything.
Wu Qiaoyan pulled Chen Zhihua for two more drinks. Her alcohol content was surprisingly good. Just when Chen Zhihua could no longer ask her to "show mercy under the cup", Wu Qiaoyan's drunken gaze suddenly fell on a table near the entrance of the restaurant, and her brows frowned.
Chen Zhihua looked over Wu Qiaoyan's gaze strangely, and saw two tall men sitting on the table, wearing T-shirts and trousers, and wearing pairs of slippers on their feet. The lazy look really made people feel uncomfortable.
"Is it..." These two people didn't look serious no matter how they looked, which made Chen Zhihua alert. When he was wondering whether these two people had anything to do with the person who wanted to be unfavorable to Wu Qiaoyan that night, Wu Qiaoyan next to him suddenly stood up from his seat, and then walked towards the table with a little shaking.
Chen Zhihua called out "Oh no" in his heart. For him, if those two guys really wanted to be unfavorable to Wu Qiaoyan, he wouldn't want to have a head-on conflict again as last time. In this case, there are many ways to avoid them, but Wu Qiaoyan, who seemed to be a little drunk at this time, had no ability to think.
Chen Zhihua was afraid that Wu Qiaoyan would suffer a loss, so he hurriedly followed him. Just as he was thinking about how to pull Wu Qiaoyan back, he didn't expect that Wu Qiaoyan pointed at the two men, but said unceremoniously: "How come you two are here?"
"Do you know?" Chen Zhihua paused in surprise, and immediately withdrew his hand. He paid attention to the two men carefully. Judging from the expressions on their faces, they did not seem to be unfavorable to Wu Qiaoyan. On the contrary, after hearing Wu Qiaoyan's words, the two of them showed a hint of panic on their faces.
"Qiaoyan, it was Uncle Wu who asked us to protect you." The two looked at each other, and one of them said, "After what happened that night, Uncle Wu was always worried about you, so let us follow you."
"No, no, you all go back first, I'm fine!" Wu Qiaoyan waved her hand unhappily and was about to send the two people away. "You go back and tell my dad that it's safe to be with my friend."
Although Chen Zhihua didn't know who these two men were, he also realized that these two men were entrusted by Wu Qiaoyan's father to follow Wu Qiaoyan and protect her. It seemed that Wu Qiaoyan was not very affectionate with her father, so she let the two men leave as soon as she spoke.
"Qiaoyan, you are making it difficult for us to do!" Another man looked at each other and his companions and shook his head and said, "Qiaoyan, we won't leave, otherwise how can we explain to Uncle Wu?" While talking, he looked at Chen Zhihua, lowered his voice and said, "Well, you also know that we have not had a good relationship with others recently. When you are alone outside, do you think Uncle Wu is worried or not?"
"What's the point of following others like this? Do I have no personal freedom at all? Instead of doing this, I might as well let the Qinglong Gang take away!"
Chen Zhihua listened quietly to the conversation between Wu Qiaoyan and the two men. Wu Qiaoyan seemed to be feeling a little uncontrollable after being drunk, so she started to curse at the two men on the spot, which immediately made many people in the restaurant turn their heads and look here.
"Qiaoyan, forget it, let's continue to eat!" Chen Zhihua began to wonder who the two men were, and who was Wu Qiaoyan's father... From what Wu Qiaoyan said just now, the three words "Qinglong Gang" reminded Chen Zhihua of the Hong Kong underworld New Yian. It seems that this is the name of a gang in a gang in Shenzhen.
Wu Qiaoyan said again, "You guys go quickly, I don't want to see you", and then followed Chen Zhihua back to the seat in disappointment. The two men looked at Wu Qiaoyan and looked at each other for a while. They were probably afraid that Wu Qiaoyan would be really angry. They quickly called the waiter to check the bill and left in a hurry.
Wu Qiaoyan looked at the backs of the two men leaving, and was relieved. In a blink of an eye, she saw the puzzled expression on Chen Zhihua's face again. After pondering for a while, she explained: "Actually, you don't have to be surprised. Let me tell you, my father is actually a gang boss in the underworld. The two men were brothers under his gang just now. I was chased that night because my father's gang had a conflict of interest with another gang called the Qinglong Gang, so the other party wanted to send someone to arrest me and use this to threaten my dad!"
"So that's how it is!" Chen Zhihua finally understood, and at the same time he knew that he had been involved in the underworld. However, it was a bit strange. If he had known that Wu Qiaoyan was the daughter of a gang leader, Chen Zhihua would have taken the initiative to avoid it, but at this time he was already familiar with Wu Qiaoyan, so he was not too concerned.
"How is it, Andy Lau, are you willing to invite me to work in your company?"
Chen Zhihua thought about it and asked him if he hadn't invited him, could he still regret it when he was in front of him? What's more, Wu Qiaoyan asked him this, and he was embarrassed to say no, so he nodded and said, "Your father is a gangster, and this actually has nothing to do with you. All I want is your ability, not your family background." After a pause, he said, "But, since you know someone wants to be unfavorable to you, I think it's better for you to let your father's people protect you temporarily. At least in this way, I don't need to change to another financial department soon!"
When Wu Qiaoyan heard Chen Zhihua's half-joking words, she felt a little nervous and immediately relaxed. In fact, she had interviewed many jobs before, and it was because her father deliberately revealed her family background to the company leaders, which immediately refused to accept Wu Qiaoyan in. Now, after Chen Zhihua knew her family background, she could still get her into Shenhui. Then she would have lost one worry and her work was stable.
"Thank you, Andy Lau!" Wu Qiaoyan looked really happy, picked up the wine glass and pulled Chen Zhihua to fuck him.
The two of them just chatted and ate. After an hour of consciousness, they finally had enough food and drank, and checked out and left the restaurant.
There is no parking lot in this restaurant itself, and customers have to park to an underground parking lot nearby. Chen Zhihua helped the drunk Wu Qiaoyan cross a secluded road to the parking lot. There was no one on this short street, which seemed a bit quiet. Chen Zhihua, who had become a little dull because of the effect of alcohol, woke up suddenly before he took two steps. Wu Qiaoyan was drunk like this, so how could he drive? It would be better to take a taxi to leave at this time, so he helped Wu Qiaoyan and turned around to turn towards another street with a lot of people and cars.
Chen Zhihua had just turned around and suddenly came out of those dark corners, and surrounded him and Wu Qiaoyan. They all held bright knives in their hands, and seemed to have bad intentions. This made Chen Zhihua's drunkenness wake up halfway.
Chen Zhihua looked back and forth at the other party. There were really many people, four of them were actually those whom he had seen before, that is, the four people who were knocked down by him when he saved Wu Qiaoyan that night.
The man with big eyes looked at Chen Zhihua and chuckled softly: "Brother, how about it, where did you go that day? I'll see how crazy you are today?"
Chen Zhihua looked at the street in the distance and then looked back to his eyes. He measured the situation in front of him, and he felt a little desperate. This time it was different from last time. This time the other party had many people and they were also scrambling guys. On the contrary, Wu Qiaoyan, who was drunk, was so unconscious that even if he shouted for help now, he was afraid that he would not be able to escape from the other party's knife. It seemed that this time he was doomed.
"The woman wants to live, this man is useless!" The big-eyed man spat on the ground viciously, tightened the knife in his hand, and immediately waved his hand and rushed towards Chen Zhihua and Wu Qiaoyan with his subordinates.
"Help!" At this time, although Chen Zhihua knew that he could not escape, he still made the final resistance. After shouting loudly, he pulled Wu Qiaoyan and ran towards the man who rushed in front.
Because the other party had a knife, Chen Zhihua tried hard to bend down in order not to let the other party's knife hit the face. His movements were fast, but unfortunately, there was a Wu Qiaoyan behind him. Although his fierce rush successfully hit the other party's body, causing the guy to stagger to sit on the ground, the knife later successfully cut on him, causing several deep holes to his arms.
Chen Zhihua held back the pain in his hand and still pulled Wu Qiaoyan. If he could let Wu Qiaoyan go at this time, he might have a chance to escape, but he would not do that, because that was not his standard for being a human being. However, his persistence did not work much. When more than a dozen people rushed over, he immediately had a few more holes on his body, which almost made Chen Zhihua lie on the ground.
"Ah..." In Wu Qiaoyan's scream, Chen Zhihua felt that he had already taken off his hand from Wu Qiaoyan. He was shaking and pushed to the ground. Then several severe pains came from his body. The smell of blood filled his whole body. In less than thirty seconds, he had been stabbed for more than a dozen times in a row.
