I will repay you double for the losses you caused me back then.
...
After saying goodbye to the girl, Lin Shui walked towards Xu Fu's room, closed the door, and said irritably.
"You little rascal, it's really a girl!"
"Woman, you can't even see this?"
Speak plainly, not nonsense.
Xu put the notebook back on, saying, "You're right."
The old man leaned forward and whispered, "Did she come from another planet?"
Xu Fu couldn't help but shudder: "How did you know?"
"Of course!"
The old man slapped his thigh and angrily cursed, "What a bastard! You'll never find a normal person again. That driver named Adam was obviously suspicious. His eyes were extremely cold, without any human emotion, like a living corpse. This one, on the other hand, is from another planet."

"My old Taoist priest was almost captured by aliens to be their apprentice, all because of your trap!"
"Grandmaster, Grandmaster above, if the secret techniques of the Void Spirit Sect fall into the hands of outsiders, how can I face them?"
"Get that alien out of here, I don't want to see her."
Xu Fu coughed a few times and glanced at them a few times.
"Speak softly, and you will be heard."
"Little one, your room is very soundproof; even with the sofa bed raised, no one can hear you."
Xu Fu picked up the phone: "Um, I have something to do, I'll go out first, you guys talk!"
After saying that, he slipped out of the room without looking back.
Ling Xuzi's body tensed up. He slowly turned his head and saw the woman who had appeared at the door at some unknown time. He nervously revealed a smile that was more like a grimace.
"Um... um, please don't mind what I just said, I... ya... ya..."
I hate being deceived.
Linda clenched her fists, the air whistling through her palms, her eyes red and gleaming, radiating an unimaginable intensity of pressure.
Lin Xiuzi was on the verge of a breakdown. "You bastard, you're feeling sorry for me again. Did I do something to deserve this in my past life, or did I bewitch you? I feel sorry for you every single day..."
"Girl, don't be angry, don't be angry, it's bad for your health. What do you want to learn? I'll teach you, I'll teach everyone!"
Linda squinted and made a face.
"For Xu Fu's sake, I'll spare you this time. From now on, teach me the 'Chopping Palm' technique. If you don't, I'll grind you into powder."
Chapter 1024 The Current State of the Hongmen!
They weren't worried about the old beggar Xu Fu's safety at all. This guy was a swindler with some skills. He usually seemed unfathomable, but once he encountered danger, he would instantly become a spineless coward. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been kicked out of his job and blacklisted by the government.
As the saying goes, good people don't live long, while bad people live for a thousand years; that's exactly what's being said about him.
In fact, there are no good people in the Hongmen who make a living off the underworld. Apart from spies, what good person would provoke the underworld?
The essence of organized crime is anti-social and anti-government organizations. If you look at the major gangs in the world that did not form during the current chaotic period, such as the Italian Mafia, the Yamaguchi-gumi in Japan, the Green Bamboo Gang in Taiwan, the triads in Hong Kong, and the Yamaguchi-gumi in East Asia, etc.
The more stable a society is, the weaker the gangs become; conversely, the more chaotic the times, the stronger the gangs become.
In its early days, the Hong Kong Association was the largest Chinese "June 27" community organization in the United States. When Chinese people or even Southeast Asians came to work in the United States, the first thing they did was to apply for asylum from the Hong Kong Association's local organization.
Things are different now. Compared to the Hong Xiuquan Society, which has the characteristics of organized crime, they are more willing to trust the government of the United States. This is an inevitable trend of social development that cannot be stopped by human power.
With fewer people, affected by natural decline, especially after the beginning of the new century, the downward trend has become more and more obvious. Even the local police dared to violently break into the Hongmen headquarters. What is even more disturbing is the internal division.
Since the 1990s, the income of the Hung Kuen School has been decreasing year by year. Economy means life, and the senior leaders of the Hung Kuen School, who were used to a good life, were dissatisfied with the status quo. In order to obtain enough material enjoyment, they decided to cooperate with Mexican drug traffickers and engage in drug trafficking.
These idiots thought they had done a very thorough job, but little did they know that everything was under the control of the FBI. After only a month, the FBI took them and their goods away. The incident was exposed, causing extremely serious damage to the reputation of the Hongmen.
The old man also resigned because of this incident, preferring to live in anonymity rather than give up. The Xiao family has many connections with the Hongmen. The first ancestor was a hall master of the Heaven and Earth Society, who spent his life resisting the Qing and restoring the Ming. The second ancestor once served as the chief leader of the Heaven and Earth Society. The third ancestor inherited his father's will and devoted himself to the cause until his death. Later, he was betrayed by a villain and had no choice but to borrow a ship to go to America to pan for gold and make a living. After arriving in America, he first joined the Hongmen.
Starting from my great-grandfather's generation, every generation has been a predecessor of the Hongmen. It can be said that the history of the Hongmen is the history of the Xiao family. How could the old man allow the Hongmen, whose souls have been entrusted to the family for generations, to decline?
He hadn't read many books, but he had a very high vision. Society was changing, and the tide of the times was moving forward. The old ways were no longer working. If we wanted to revitalize society, we had to reform. Only through reform could the Hongmen avoid being wiped out.
Reform is a simple word, but it is an extremely arduous task that involves a wide range of interests and conflicts. Without tremendous perseverance, people simply cannot do it.
After careful consideration, the old man finally decided to entrust this heavy responsibility to his most beloved and capable grandson.
Then, Xu Fuyi fled his home without hesitation, running from the western part of the United States to the far east, disappearing without answering the phone or sending emails.
Xu Fu had more than a dozen plans for the future, none of which were related to the Xiongnu. A villain is a villain, and no matter how you try to disguise it, you can't change his true nature.
If you become a gang leader, there's not much you can do. It's a dark swamp; easy to get in, hard to get out.
Upon learning that his beloved grandson had run away from home, the old man was so angry that he cursed loudly. After cursing, he could only sigh in despair. What could he do? That rascal was smarter than a monkey; he just didn't want to get involved in this mess.
A few months later, the old man gave up his initial idea.
Xu Fu rushed back with all the gifts he could bring. None of them mentioned Henman, which was good; a family is a family after all, and cannot be separated by external things.
The only downside is my two uncles.
A BMW was parked in front of a villa in the affluent eastern suburbs.
Xu Fu got out of the car and rang the doorbell. A moment later, the door opened and a middle-aged woman came out. She was handsome and gentle.
"Oh, Xiao Xu Fu, Auntie missed you so much when you came back."
Come, kiss me.
Xu Fu quickly took a step back: "Auntie, I'm almost eighteen."
"So what if you're 18? You're still a child at 18. I remember you wearing open-crotch pants when you were little."
Xu Fu was at a loss and hurriedly handed over the gift.
"These are all for you: bags, packaging, cosmetics—all limited editions worldwide. There's also an emerald necklace, specially commissioned by an Italian celebrity; it only comes in 26 colors and is absolutely beautiful."
"real!"
The woman's eyes lit up. She cupped the stiff boy's face and kissed him: "My little Xu Fu is still the cutest. Unlike this Korean guy who only knows how to fight and kill all day long. We've been married for twenty years, and he hasn't even given me a decent gift. It makes me so angry."
"Come on, sit down quickly."
They entered the living room, and the woman exclaimed.
"Juliana Danny, come downstairs, Xu Fu is back!"
Footsteps approached, and soon a man and a woman ran down from the top floor. They were two young people in their early twenties. The man was named Danny, and the woman was named Julian. Because they were twins, they looked very alike. However, Danny was tall and strong, while Julian was thinner and sweeter.
As the only girl in Shaw's generation, Juliana and Xu Fu had a very close relationship.
"Xu Fu, you've finally shown up. I thought you went to see Jesus."
The woman slapped her: "You brat, how dare you talk like that?"
Danny had clearly matured. He made a gesture to Xu Fu, who nodded affirmatively.
Xu Fu handed over the gifts his siblings had brought, then said a few words to his uncle and aunt, and continued...
Is Uncle home?
He's been in my office since this morning, and I don't know what I'm doing.
I want to talk to him.
"Get up at 5 or 7, I'll go make tea."
The woman sighed softly, got up and went to the kitchen. She didn't want to, and couldn't, get involved in the affairs of the Hongmen. That damned Korean was probably thinking something. Little Xu had run away from home again, and he was still holding a grudge. He really thought he was so capable!
Danny stood up and whispered, "I support you."
Xu Fu nodded slightly, said nothing, and walked with the young man who was ostensibly his cousin but was actually his confidant towards the office on the second floor.
As soon as the door was opened, thick smoke billowed out.
In the dim light, a middle-aged man with short hair and a burly build sat in an old-fashioned swivel chair, smoking a cigar and staring intently at an oil painting on the wall.
This is an oil painting depicting a shipwreck. Flames rage beneath the surging tide, and through the firelight, one can vaguely see the struggling crew members submerged in the water and the wrecked hull.
Chapter 1025 Family also has its own side!
The middle-aged man is named Xiao Hongyuan, with the English name Arthur Xiao. He is one of the elders of the Hongmen and is mainly responsible for some Hongmen branches in the eastern United States, including Canada. His overall strength ranks fourth among the elders of the Hongmen, and he is also a strong contender for the next leader of the association.
Xu Fu strode to the center of the office, bowed slightly, and then
"uncle"
Xiao Hongyuan looked at his son walking behind him and said casually.
"sit down!".
Xu Fu pulled up a chair and sat down opposite him, while Danny stood to the side.
