Chapter 105 Waiting for Spring to Arrive

In order to avoid his mother's nagging, after two months at home, Li Mu finally went out and set up a game.They were all playmates when they were studying. When they heard that Li Mu was back, they all clamored to invite him out for a meal, but Li Mu refused.They built a group, a group of rich second-generation people who shared their experience of eating, drinking and having fun all day long. Li Mu watched the excitement, but rarely participated.

On this day, Li Mu sent a message in the group for the first time: Who is free tonight?Yuehua Building, drink.

Everyone fell silent for a moment, and then burst out one after another.

"Wow, isn't it! Brother Mu finally woke up!"

"I thought you'd become a fairy!"

"Come, come, come, I must come, my treat!"

"It's your turn to invite? Brother Mu finally came out, of course I have to be the host."

A few people were chattering, and Li Mu felt dizzy looking at the densely packed words.After a while, he said: "I mentioned it, so naturally I'll invite you. It's a face for me when everyone arrives."

All friends said that they would come tonight even if they didn't want to pick up girls.

Li Mu smiled faintly and put down the phone.

He still has a small status among these people.Both of their parents were at the beginning of the new millennium, either resigned from public office, or were desperate to do business.Gold was everywhere in that era, so they all accumulated some family property more or less.Parents only care about making money, so the education of their children is naturally a bit behind.Of course, this group of people has no worries about their future. Most of them went to university and failed the domestic exams, so they went abroad to be gilded.

Li Mu went abroad when he was in high school, and went to a good private school in the United States. At the beginning, he inevitably suffered from the language, but he got used to it later.The university studied engineering based on interest, and the school is a serious public ivy.This kind of experience can be regarded as a clear stream among those dudes with mixed education.

These people didn't reject him, and didn't think that Li Mu was serious, but because they knew each other well, they expressed great pride that there was a top student among their brothers.There are probably one or two naive ones who boasted when drinking flowers and wine with their beautiful sisters: "I have a brother! I read Ivy, what's his name... Oh, the name is too long to remember, anyway!"

The pretty sister smiled and said, "Then what is your brother doing now?"

"Say it's going to be a bartender now."

My sister's face darkened, and the topic didn't continue.

The second-generation rich friends don't think so.Among them, Li Mu is also from a very good family, with his mother and queen mother in charge of the dictatorship, and his elder brother, the crown prince, waiting to succeed him. All in all, Li Mu lives the most relaxed and carefree life.What's wrong with being a bartender?You can also make some delicious wine yourself, why not do it!

Among them, Li Mu is the most outstanding one, and also the most deviant one. Such a person is too legendary, and no one wants to let go of such an opportunity in order to add a little new talking point.

The time was set at eight o'clock in the evening, and the night in Andu was already thick.In the evening, a thin snow fell, and the air was bitingly cold.Li Mu borrowed his brother's car and drove to the downstairs of Yuehua. It was a local private club, and it was on the side of the road.On the surface, he is doing antique business, but usually there are very few customers.Only a narrow road was opened from the side, and the car drove in for more than ten meters, and there was a huge backyard.

It's almost New Year's Eve, even though it's freezing cold, there's still a little joy in the courtyard.A few people who looked like employees set up scaffolding to hang lanterns under the eaves of the corridor.One after another is bright red, at first glance in the night, there is really a festive atmosphere.

Li Mu got out of the car and wrapped his black woolen coat tightly.I was in a hurry to go out, without a scarf, the wind blew, and my neck was cold.

The waiter lifted the curtain, and a burst of noise could not be restrained.Together with covering Li Mu, there is also the warm air in the room.Friends are here early.Seven or eight young people had already drank it first, took off their coats, and put them on the backs of chairs or hung them on hangers. There were some small dishes on the big round table, nothing more than hot and sour kelp shreds, fried small river fish, peanuts, smoked beans dry or something.

Someone with sharp eyes recognized Li Mu at once, yelled "Oops", put down the wine glass, and rushed up to him, without any explanation, first gave Li Mu a firm hug.

"Stinky boy! It's been two months since you came back to see us! Are you looking down on your brother!"

Li Mu raised his hand and patted the other person's back, "I was raising it for a while, and I got hurt a little."

"Injured?" Hearing this, the other party was startled, let go of Li Mu, took half a step back, and looked carefully.

Li Mu felt uncomfortable at the sight, and heard the other party laugh, "Injured? I think you are here—" He poked his heart, "You're hurt!"

The crowd burst into laughter.

Li Mu sat down amidst laughter.Soon someone poured him wine.Li Mu looked down and saw that it was Qinghua Lang, he took the wine bottle casually, shook it, and said with a smile: "Is this already a bottle?"

"No." Zhao Dong, who just came up to hug him, explained, "Qian Ke is being stingy. The last time we had dinner, there was only half a bottle left. This grandson has to take it home and drink it next time. The men didn't take it seriously. It’s good now! It’s really brought again.”

"From frugality to extravagance is easy, and from extravagance to frugality is difficult." Qian Ke is a small man with a thin face and a pair of myopia glasses on the bridge of his nose, shaking his head and showing off, "This wine is pretty good, it's a pity to waste it. Li Mu, you say yes no?"

Li Mu nodded with a smile, and called the waiter, "Have you ordered yet? Order another bottle of wine, what do you want to drink, just tell me!"

"I've ordered everything, and I'll wait for you to pay the bill." Sun Le took out a bottle of XO, "Come on, let's drink first and then talk."

Zhao Dong drank the little wine at the bottom of the glass in one gulp, and looked at Li Mu with vacant eyes, "You've lost weight. I see that you have suffered a lot. How is it? Come back this time, won't you leave?"

"I don't know," Li Mu smiled, "Not sure yet."

"If you want me to tell you, don't leave." Qian Ke persuaded him, "How good we are!"

"Yeah, it's great to be here." A few other people also echoed, "Although we are not as big as a first-tier city here, we basically have everything we want. As long as you have money, you can get anything, don't you think?" .”

It's the truth that the words are rough and the rationale is not.

"What's more, your family's business has been doing well recently." Zhao Dong sipped his wine and frowned, "Unlike my family, look at this Yuehua Building, which is only entertaining us right now."

When Li Mu heard it, he felt that there was something in the words, and hurriedly asked what was going on.

Qian Ke laughed and said, "You don't read the news? Be darling, you're really just a hands-off shopkeeper at home!"

Li Mu was even more at a loss.

"Flu." Zhao Dong said, "The flu from abroad a few months ago came to us a while ago."

Li Mu is really deaf to what is going on outside the window, and the days at home are not only nourishing the wounds of the hands, but also nourishing the wounds of the heart.He usually doesn't like to read the news, and he doesn't even play Weibo very much. When Zhao Dong said this, Li Mu vaguely felt that something had changed outside.

But because they don't understand, those obvious evidences become useless.At this time in previous years, my mother is relatively free, but now she is at the company most of the time, and Li Ye hasn't come back for several days.When I asked, it was said that the production was being expedited!

Part of their business is the production of medical supplies, such as gloves and masks.In previous years, this time is the time to close the lights and prepare for the New Year, but this year is so busy.

If a person is blind, he really cannot see anything.Grass snake gray lines strung together one by one, Li Mu couldn't help feeling terrified.

"I don't know how it got here. Domestic and foreign flights have been under control a month ago." Sun Le said, "We are far away. Fortunately, I haven't heard of any movement. The worst thing is Huadu. What do you think?" Ah, Huadu is a port and an important economic center in the south, there have been a lot of cases these days, and I estimate that the city will be closed in the early hours of this morning at the latest."

"Closing the city?" Qian Ke shook his head, "How is it possible? The business is not going on? The economy is not developing? Isn't it just a flu? I don't believe it. What can happen! You promise, it will be fine in a few days!"

Zhao Dong spat, "You're guaranteed to be useful! My family's business in Huadu is half dead now, and I lost a Porsche in a month!"

He has now participated in the operation of the family business with his family.His family is engaged in catering, starting from Andu, there are already hundreds of chain stores in China.The rest of them are still idlers. As soon as Zhao Dong said this, everyone knew the seriousness of the matter, so they were silent for a while.

Li Mu's heart was up and down, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.He really shut himself off for too long, he didn't even listen to anything, didn't think about anything, even the newspaper ordered by his mother and delivered home every day didn't attract his attention.

"...Fortunately, you are back. I think it's the same as resigning sooner or later from your bar job! Who knows if you can make it through tomorrow!"

Li Mu stood up, and everyone who was chatting raised their heads in surprise, "What's wrong?"

"I... go out to get some air." Li Mu thought for a while and said, "You guys talk first."

As soon as he went out, the biting wind rushed to his face.Li Mu wrapped his coat tightly, and it was snowing again outside.

The winding corridors are already covered with orange palace lanterns, lit up one by one, swaying fragilely in the dark night in the solemn wind and snow.The alcohol has been suppressed, and my heart is as cold as a desert.Hua is about to close the city, he thought.Dionysus, Thyme, Hualang... Under the flu, how can these bars be exhausted?

What about Zhao Shengyan?What about Zhu Zhu? ...What about Yue Renge?

He has to go back.Li Mu suddenly had a thought, yes, he must go back.Although he still doesn't know what he wants to do when he goes back this time, but here, he knows that it is absolutely impossible.

He glanced at the box.The curtains in the house were half closed, and the people inside were chatting and laughing.The room is very warm, and the wind and snow can't bother them. He can also stay in the greenhouse like them, and then wait for the wind and snow to pass and spring to come.

Li Mu sniffed, a gust of wind blew away his coat, the heat around his body dropped sharply, and then a warm current slowly rose from the bottom of his heart.

If you can't avoid it, why not face it?

Li Mu went to the front desk to settle the bill, and booked himself the nearest flight to Huadu.
