Chapter 11 Confrontation

Zhao Xiu had a surprised expression on his face.

"If Lin Yuanqi is really not easy, wouldn't it be more beneficial for us to fight among the Green Gang?"

Mr. Shen shook his head, "Xiao Jiu, you don't understand, the current Jianghu will sooner or later be the world of your young people, I'm just betting that Lin Yuanqi will become the final winner, if you can win at this time Beside him, until one day when Qinggang and Huchemen have to choose between them, you are my most important card. The higher you climb and the closer you are to Lin Yuanqi, the greater our chances of winning. Bigger."

"I understand." Zhao Xiu showed a clear expression on his face, but his heart gradually cooled down.

Shen Sanye's prediction was indeed correct. Lin Yuanqi not only took the position of the leader of the Green Gang in the end, but his power would continue to expand in the past few years, so that no one among the rising stars of the underworld in Huaguo could defeat him, but Shen Sanye made a mistake in this game of chess. Lin Yuanqi's methods far exceeded his expectations, and he, Zhao Xiu, could never become his pawn again.

"I know it's not easy to mix with Lin Yuanqi. Of course, the premise is that he is definitely not an idiot. I will create opportunities for you. As long as you can gain his trust with your ability, he will never bury you. "Mr. Shen raised his head and squinted his eyes, covered his face with a towel, enjoying the steaming heat.

"It's a coincidence that this New Year's event is just an opportunity, as long as you pretend to be at odds with New Year's Eve, it won't be so difficult to get along with Lin Yuanqi, at least it's much more reasonable than if you transferred to the Green Gang for no reason. "

"Third Master, is it really necessary to take a step?"

"what are you worried about?"

"I'm afraid that I will disappoint the third master's expectations."

Third Master Shen took the towel off his face and smiled, "I don't think so." He stared into Zhao Xiu's eyes, "I don't have a son, and I have always trained you as my successor. I know everything about your abilities. Chu, now you are playing with me to be modest."

Zhao Xiu's face was a little excited, and he took another breath and quickly stabilized his expression.

Mr. Shen smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "I'll tell you about this first, how to do it depends on the timing." He rubbed the sweat on his brow, "This damn place is too fucking hot, I'm going to take a bath first, you can steam it, and I will ask Liu Jue to notify you when things are almost ready."

Zhao Xiu nodded, "I see, Third Master."

It wasn't until Third Master Shen left the sauna room that the expression on Zhao Xiu's face sank.

He knew that this matter was not as simple as what Shen Sanye said.

Picking up the water ladle and scooping up another ladle of water, the heat came up with a 'hiss'.

Zhao Xiu opened his arms and leaned against the wall, sweat dripping down his forehead.

The matter of dealing with Wang Danian this time aroused Sanye Shen's suspicion, otherwise, why would he want to send him to Lin Yuanqi's side? Judging from Zhao Laojiu's impression of Sanye Shen in the past, he would not immediately suspect him His loyalty may be more just guessing that he used other people's hands to bring down Wang Danian who prevented him from ascending to power.

It's just that this has already made Mr. Shen uneasy, so he took advantage of the situation and used Lin Yuanqi's affairs to transfer him away from his side. Not only can he observe him from a long distance, but he can also bury a pawn in the Green Gang by the way, which kills two birds with one stone. The means are used with great proficiency.

Zhao Xiu closed his eyes, his open chest heaved slowly, the bathrobe was still on, and the exposed part was covered with beads of sweat.

Doing these actions under Lin Yuanqi's hands is no different from seeking skin from a tiger, but once he refuses Sanye Shen's request, it is obvious that he has a different heart, and when the time comes, he will face the same crazy pursuit as in his previous life. If he can escape that time, yes Zhao Xiu's fortune, this time he can't count on that kind of good luck.

Eliminating Wang Danian has cut off the biggest problem he is currently facing.

The next thing to do is to get his brother back.

Now that Cheng Ning and Yao Qun haven't entered the prison, he has to hurry up and find them. Before that, he can't let Mr. Shen have any idea of ​​doing anything.

Zhao Xiu made up his mind to pay attention, sweat had already soaked the bathrobe, he stood up and wiped his forehead, and walked slowly outside.

The small bathroom outside the sauna room was empty, Mr. Shen probably had finished his bath and went for a massage, which would be better.

Zhao Xiu stepped into the pool with moderate water temperature, and the sweat from the hot air was quickly washed away by the water. The water flow continuously massaged his body, and all the cells in his body stretched out. He closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the bath pool. Enjoy a moment of peace.

The door of the bathroom opened with a click, Zhao Xiu's heart shuddered, and he quickly opened his eyes.

The gaze fixed on his body was as sharp as a sharp edge. Although he could not feel the aura of danger, it made people feel inexplicably uneasy like a needle prick.

He quickly turned around in the water, and the visitor unexpectedly closed the bathroom door, crossed his arms and met his eyes.

Lin Yuanqi, the name was almost uttered through gritted teeth.

Lin Yuanqi's eyes lingered on him, as if patrolling the territory, with the meaning of evaluation and consideration.

Zhao Xiu was originally angry, but when he looked at him like this, he laughed unexpectedly.

"Mr. Lin, what a coincidence." Thinking of what happened in Charm last time, his tone unconsciously became a bit cold, but there was a smile on his face again.

Lin Yuanqi glanced at him lightly, with a playful look on his face, "I thought you were waiting for me here on purpose."

"Oh, that joke is really not funny at all."

Lin Yuanqi raised his neck slightly, and the person who was standing on a high place had a hint of contempt in an instant.

"I never like to joke. I booked the bathroom at this time. If you weren't waiting for me here, why would you show up here?"

Zhao Xiu remembered what Sanye Shen had said before, and immediately felt aggrieved in his heart that he was being slapped together.

"Then I'm the one who disturbed Mr. Lin, I'm really sorry." Zhao Xiu shrugged his shoulders and slowly stood up from the bath.

Zhao Xiu and Lin Yuanqi, who are so easy to get close to this kind of occasion, are surprisingly weird. Even if they don't do anything, they often turn into a sense of tension between a few words.

Zhao Xiu passed by Lin Yuanqi's side, and at the moment he grasped the doorknob, he turned half of his body sideways as if aware of it, avoiding the disadvantage of being completely pushed down on the door.

Looking at Lin Yuanqi's hand on his arm, Zhao Xiu slowly raised his lips.

"Mr. Lin and I don't seem to know each other very well. If I offended you at Fulijing last time, please don't take it to heart."

Lin Yuanqi raised his eyebrows, his brown smooth skin was exposed in the open bathrobe, making him look full of vigorous strength.

"It seems that your memory is not very good. I thought the friendship between lips and teeth should be deep enough."

Zhao Xiu's eyes instantly turned cold, and he smiled more politely.

"I do not understand what you mean."

Lin Yuanqi pressed closer, and the water vapor in the bathroom permeated the air, inexplicably creating a hazy and ambiguous atmosphere.

"Do you not understand or don't want to understand?"

"Is there a difference between the two?"

"of course."

The four eyes met, breathing was audible, and the string between the two became extremely tense.

Lin Yuanqi said almost word for word: "Tell me, what is your purpose for approaching Lin Ya?"

Zhao Xiu was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "This doesn't seem to be about Mr. Lin, or you would prefer me to give you the answer you want."

Lin Yuanqi lowered his head and whispered sensationally in his ear, feeling extremely dangerous.

"Don't play tricks in front of me, Zhao Laojiu, it's easier to crush you than to crush an ant."

"Oh?" Zhao Xiu raised his eyebrows, "I'll wait and see."

Turning back to fend off Lin Yuanqi, his arm came out smoothly, Zhao trimmed some messy clothes, and grabbed the doorknob.

This time, Lin Yuanqi's movements were faster than before. He hooked Zhao Xiu's neck with his backhand, and punched him in the lower abdomen, but was skillfully dodged by Zhao Xiu.

Seeing the fight, the wet bathrobe was completely wiped out, and even the belt was only hanging loosely around the waist.

Zhao Xiu pressed Lin Yuanqi firmly against the wall, and for the first time showed his cruelty clearly on his face.

"What the hell do you want? I just want to go out. If you want to play, don't play here."

Lin Yuanqi put away the smile on his face, looked at him coldly, and said in a deep voice, "Take off your clothes."

Zhao Xiu opened his eyes wide, "What did you say?"

"I told you to undress."
