Chapter 379

Pressure is something that individuals often feel. It often appears inexplicably, but it is difficult to reduce for no reason. Sometimes pressure can be said to be a proof of a person's maturity, and of course it can also be a footnote to growth.

Lin Xu's pressure comes from some recent conversations with his grandfather and mother. In the past, he may not think this kind of conversation is great, but after Li Luoyang appeared, Lin Xu felt a deep sense of fear, and this sense of fear comes from one sentence: people are born more powerful than you and work 10000 times harder than you. So he asked you if you are afraid.

Therefore, in the face of Sima Yingming's inquiry, Lin Xu also thought for a long time before opening his mouth: "that's the pressure from adults at home, saying that my little brother is idle and doesn't work."

Sima Yingming was slightly stunned and said to himself, "this is also pressure? The truth is also pressure? This is not what you do every day?"

"Eh, brother Yingming, are you doubting me?"

"No, no, then you say, what kind of person does your family want you to be?"

"They want me to be a, a person like Li Luoyang!"

Sima Yingming smiled when he heard this sentence. Although he smiled very vaguely, basically only the deepest part of his eyes was laughing, he was still felt by Lin Xu or guessed by him. "Brother Yingming, don't make fun of my little brother. I think I do think Li Luoyang is a great person and worth learning from."

"Wrong!"

Sima Yingming quickly interrupted Lin Xu, "Li Luoyang is worth learning at most. I can't learn."

"Well, you see my memory, I almost forgot." Lin Xu patted his forehead and remembered Sima Yingming's identity. He was the national uncle. Li Luoyang did a lot of things, and his national uncle couldn't do it, otherwise he would have to be participated by the imperial historian.

"No harm, but don't you think it's not easy to learn from Li Luoyang? There's a big gap between you and him."

"Do you want to talk about identity and background? I'm not afraid of that. It's man-made. My background is poor. I just need to work harder."

"Wrong, Li Luoyang is not the kind of person who depends on his background. Li Jiacun, Anning County, threw your boy into that environment and couldn't live long ago. Can you express your feelings in front of me? What did the Lin family do to get Lin Luoshui back? Don't say you don't know? You can survive?"

"Brother Yingming, have you investigated all this?" Lin Xu was slightly surprised. About Anning county and Lin Luoshui's return to Luoyang, Lin Xu had heard from his mother and grandfather. After all, he was the inner door of the six doors. Basically, there was nothing unknown.

But I didn't expect that even Sima Yingming knew the context. Lin Xu couldn't figure it out. It's reasonable to say that as Sima Yingming, you don't have to care about these little shit things at all. People's Duan is a real "national" level, and you don't have to consider anything other than national affairs.

"I want to do business with Li Luoyang. How can I do if I don't know his context?" Sima Yingming shook his head and pointed to Lin Xu. That means: you're still too young. Lin Xu smiled awkwardly over there. Sima Yingming said again, "so I said, the gap between you and Li Luoyang is here."

Looking at Sima Yingming pointing to his brain as he spoke, the smile on Lin Xu's face became a little embarrassed. How about NIMA hitting people without hitting the face? NIMA and Lin Xu used to be a bully in Luoyang, too? When a bad man is a overlord, I haven't lost my arms and legs. I haven't been in prison because I have a brain, okay? You call me stupid so outspoken. Although you are my uncle, you are also very hurtful?

Lin Xu can only think about these inner monologues in his heart. He doesn't dare to show it on his face, let alone say it. After all, there is still a big gap in the level between him and Sima Yingming. The person who looks up to each other is Lin Xu, not Sima Yingming. To say an ugly word, in Lin Xu's current situation, as long as Xu Boran suddenly returns to the west one day, Then the Xu family basically lost the "power" thing. At that time, the most worried thing is not the dilapidation, but that those people whom Xu Boran offended in the past may fall into the well.

Lin Xu didn't think about this in the past, because his family didn't tell him at all, but now it's different. The sudden emergence of Li Luoyang has made Xu Boran and others feel a pressure, a pressure called the back wave of the Yangtze River pushing the front wave, and a new generation changing the old.

The rise of Li Luoyang seems to be telling that Xu Boran's generation is getting old and they must plan for their future generations. This is a Chinese tradition.

That's why Lin Xu was suddenly educated. That's why Lin Xu repented. That's why Lin Xu came to Sima Yingming today.

However, Lin Xu himself didn't expect that he not only didn't get any encouragement here, but also suffered a great blow. What he didn't expect was that he would meet Li Luoyang by such a coincidence.

According to the steward, Li Luoyang asked for an interview. Lin Xu's first reaction was to avoid it first. Although he has already talked with Li Luoyang, he is no longer an opponent or an enemy, he is still reluctant to deal with Li Luoyang. He was afraid to face Li Luoyang since he lost that precious wine card.

"What are you going to do? Didn't you say you are a partner with Luoyang? I am also a partner with him now. You are still relatives, and I don't have this relationship with him yet. Don't go. Stay and talk together."

"Er, OK." Lin Xu calmed down and rubbed his face reluctantly, which corrected his expression and stabilized his state of mind.

Although Li Luoyang was surprised to see Lin Xu here as soon as he came in, he wasn't very surprised. After all, he didn't make an appointment in advance. People were able to meet him immediately, even if it was very face-saving. Just now he saw a thick stack of worship posts at the door. They were all people who wanted to meet Sima Yingming but couldn't, I'm afraid a large part of them are the worship posts of court officials, and they are not low-level officials.

So Li Luoyang didn't even have a trace of surprise on his face. All of them were smiles and surprises. "Ah, I didn't expect that I would kill two birds with one stone!"

"Poof ~"

Sima Yingming was more relaxed and free in front of Li Luoyang. He was completely immoral. He pointed to Li Luoyang and said, "what's the mess?"

"Isn't it two birds? One or two, am I right, or do you two have one or two more?"

"Look, look at your cousin. He doesn't look like an elder at all!"

"Nephew is rude. I've seen my cousin!"

After being vaguely reminded by Sima Yingming, Lin xucai suddenly regained his mind and wiped. The guy with a full mouth was his elder. What's the matter with sitting!
