C638 Destroying or Rising

Xiao Chaoran gently caressed his wife's hair and muttered: "I should be a little like you."

For a moment, the two of them went silent. Many years ago, Xiao Chaoran and Ding Yiran were like an immortal couple, causing countless people to be envious. Even though Xiao Chaoran was the youngest son of the Xiao Family, he was still young in business, and had great potential in the underworld. It made the Xiao family's old man very happy. This youngest son was truly a born king with unparalleled bravery.

This made the old man slam the table, and Xiao Chaoran immediately became the heir to the Wealthy Class family.

Xiao Chaoran lived up to everyone's expectations and led the clan to the peak step by step. After that, he got to know Ding Yiran. The Ding Yiran Family mainly dealt in overseas oil and mineral resources, it could be said to be a rather large family. In this SH, it could be said to be the number one family.

The combination of these two made countless people drool in envy. The man was handsome, the woman was beautiful like a flower. Even more precious was the fact that they were well-matched.

Therefore, the married Xiao Chaoran's position in the Xiao Family could be said to be above a single person's.

Moreover, two years after the marriage, a man was born. That was even more beautiful. However, no one would have thought that Ding Yiran gave birth to a son. In less than two months, the child was lost. It was a snowy winter day, so cold it made people shiver. She was still a baby and had no ability to survive.

Throwing it away, the old man was infuriated.

Xiao Chaoran would never be able to recover from this, even though he was still the heir to the clan in name. However, he already had a calm heart. He was beginning to get tired of the business and influence of the family.

The family's influence began to close in on his brothers, and he slowly became a bald-headed commander. All these years, he had spent a lot of effort to find his child.

However, it was difficult to find one.

His wife, who had been as beautiful as a flower, had similarly aged over the years. Every time he heard the disappointed news, the guild leader would sigh for a long time.

And now, on such a starry night, he and his beloved wife were sighing in the sky garden on the top floor.

After a long period of silence, tears welled up in Xiao Chaoran's eyes: "If it wasn't for the fact that I was too sharp back then, I wouldn't have been able to do anything. Then, how could I possibly get the attention of Hongmen, how could I possibly be chased for a thousand miles, and how could I possibly lose my child? Yiran, I've let you down. "

"Whose age is not brash, whose age is not brash?" Ding Yiran raised her head, looked at her own husband, and also shed tears as she slowly said: "I don't blame you. So it's not your fault. Weird only, destiny makes a fool of people. "

Xiao Chaoran often blamed himself for the loss of his child. While Ding Yiran didn't blame her husband, but she was only silently grieving for her own soul. Such a small child, such a cold winter. Really, would he be able to survive? Thinking about it, Ding Yiran laughed bitterly.

Both husband and wife knew that this was a search for self-consolation. All these years, they had been searching for self-consolation.

"All these years, under the leadership of your brothers, the clan has developed rather quickly." Ding Yiran suddenly started to talk about proper business, "Just that, your family seems to be endlessly prosperous. However, the Hongmen is still a blade hanging over your family. You're smart enough to back down in a hurry. You know that sooner or later, there will be a conflict with the Hongmen. Unfortunately, your brothers are fearless. Right now, the more powerful the family is, the closer the day comes. "

Xiao Chaoran heard his wife talk about this, but did not agree with her view. Raising his head, his face revealed a firm expression, "Actually, you're wrong about this matter. Even if it was an ordinary commoner who wanted to enter the circle of the rich. He wanted to drive a Lamborghini, live in a luxurious villa, and have a servant wait on him at home. Perhaps his generation had not worked hard enough. Rather, it required generations to work together towards this goal. Generations of hard work and hard work accumulated like this. One day, their family would become a wealthy family. In any generation, they would lose their faith, lose their goal. "Since I've already started to destroy my foundation, then this goal will have to be extended in my line of sight. Perhaps, I might never be able to achieve it."

Pausing, Xiao Chaoran continued: "Our family came from the Hongmen. If one wanted to be born from a Hongmen, then they would need to work hard from generation to generation. It had to be because he was afraid of this conflict, so he didn't do it. Then, the blade called Hongmen that hangs above our family's head, will never be taken down. But if we're willing to take a knife, generations of people will work hard. Then, we can definitely succeed in accomplishing the great feat our Xiao Clan has accomplished for thousands of years. "

"Then why did you retreat in such a hurry? Is it the child's business that has caused you to lose your enthusiasm for fame? " Ding Yiran looked at her husband in puzzlement.

For the first time, under the gaze of his wife, Xiao Chaoran opened his heart. His expression immediately became gloomy as he said in a low voice, "As the saying goes, if one room is not swept, how can one sweep the world? If I can't even protect my own son, then what virtue do I have to protect the entire family, and what virtue do I have to accomplish anything?

Ding Yiran listened to his own husband's thoughts and only said softly, "If you control your family, then I am willing to believe you. You can lead your clan out of Hongmen and take down that blade. And if it were your brothers, I wouldn't believe it. Even though your Xiao family has grown to be very powerful in this generation, it is very, very close to that day. However, I believe that day will not lead to the success of your Xiao family's long life. On the contrary, that day was destruction. The knife that hangs over your family's head will descend. But it's definitely not from your brothers, it's from fiercely chopping them down. "

Xiao Chaoran's body trembled for a moment, and then, he said in a low voice: "The night is a bit cold, go to sleep early. I heard that the people of Europa Castle have started to travel to the east, it seems that the world is not a peaceful place anymore. In the turbulent times, there were great waves of sand. Destroying or rising, everything was up to fate. I'm just a father who lost a child. What does that have to do with me? "

The stars were in the clouds, and the night was much darker. It was as if in this turbulent era, many dark things were happening in secret. Xiao Chaoran accompanied his beloved wife into the room and closed the door.

All of a sudden, that door shut the sky and the darkness outside. That door had shut the door to the prosperity of the Great Sage. That door had locked down all the family's thousands of years of achievements and all of their wealth.

And in the dance hall, the ball was finally coming to an end.

Under Xiao Zhiyuan's lead, the group of young masters all started tasting the wine. This was a game played by famous popinjays. They paid a lot of attention to skill and skill.

However, these young masters had some experience in this field. Therefore, to them, this wine tasting became quite interesting. Especially when beauties were lingering at this ball. In this elegant wine tasting project, the words are the best. In that case, they could probably win over all the beauties in one go.

Of course, he could bring the beauty back for the night.

"Tasting wine is like tasting tea, only carrying the wind and the moon, not knowing the ways of the world, just like tilled cattle drinking canals."

Xiao Zhiyuan sighed as he picked up the cup of wine in front of him. Then he put the wine into his mouth. The wine swirled in his mouth, and Xiao Zhiyuan quickly stirred it around with his tongue. This way, his tongue could fully taste the three main flavors: the sweetness of the tongue tip, the sourness on both sides, and the bitterness of the tongue root. The entire upper and lower jaw of his mouth had come into contact with the wine, to feel whether the wine was sour, sweet, bitter, light, thick and thin, in perfect harmony or not.

His mouth opened into a small O shape, and at that moment, it seemed as if the wine in his mouth was going to flow out. In the end, he took a deep breath, as if he was going to suck the wine back in, causing the fragrance of the wine to spread into his mouth. After what happened last night, Xiao Zhiyuan slowly swallowed the alcohol.

At this moment, a fragrant smell wafted from his mouth.

Xiao Zhiyuan squinted his eyes, opened his mouth and slowly said, "Good wine, good wine, this should be the 96 year Boak manor wine from France. It appeared to be a thick and deep ruby color, with a rich fruity aroma. Still, it tasted slightly spicy, vanilla and oak. "I don't know. Am I right?"

The whole process was smooth and elegant. Xiao Zhiyuan was like a gentleman, and what was in the cup was not wine, but his lover.

The beauty who had just poured the wine instantly picked up the bottle that she had just poured. He turned the bottle over and opened his mouth wide in surprise.

The label on the bottle said that it had been made in France in 1996.

Instantly, exclamations of surprise sounded out from the audience. Towards this Xiao Zhiyuan who was very knowledgeable, all of them applauded. Those passionate and beautiful girls surrounded Xiao Zhiyuan one by one, their limpid eyes secretly sending him off.

This wine came from the French manor of Boac, and was not as famous in the world as the French Lafite. In comparison, this wine is still relatively rare in the country.

But, Xiao Zhiyuan said it out loud. This insight, this ability, was indeed worthy of people's admiration and applause.
