The chef and assistants have left, leaving only two waiters cleaning the kitchen.

Gao Xu invited guests to drink juice by the swimming pool in the backyard, and at the same time, he could free up the restaurant and let the waiters clean up. He was not very used to doing housework and didn't want to do it, so he felt that Miaojin should do less.

He was a little drunk, but again, he still had a relatively clear consciousness after getting drunk.

A total of two bottles of white wine of more than 50 degrees were opened, mainly by Gao Xu and Wang Cheng, and Xiao Deng also drank a lot. The remaining two women mainly drank sweet red wine.

Wang Cheng was characterized by his excessive talk. When several people sat by the pool, he started to talk nonsense, and after a while he talked about the law. Why is this topic? Perhaps because he is familiar with it.

"Mr. Liu, let me tell you, what's going on in ancient times? I'll hit the top ten boards first and then let you sue. That's not an ordinary board. If you swing it down, it's a skin and flesh that you can't imagine." Wang Cheng said angrily with wine.

Gao Xu shook his head and smiled.

The style and decent beginning of the dinner were gone with the fermentation of alcohol. Everyone was more relaxed and became such a scene. Alcohol is indeed a catalyst for emotions.

Wang Cheng continued: "It's different now, because it doesn't make sense in logic. My mother is obviously right, and I take the legal path, just to not pay the price for myself? She also asked me to pay a heavy price first. Why did I sue? Take out a gun, "Bang bang bang" that makes me feel a plea of ​​revenge..."

His wife Dong Qian was obviously more sober, so she had to smile with her and said, "I am very happy to be here at Mr. Liu tonight, but it's time for us to go home."

"No, I always met Liu and I long ago." Wang Cheng shook his head and said.

Dong Qian looked at Miao Jin and said, "He is drunk, don't mind too much. Wang Cheng, let's go back early to rest."

Gao Xu was also a little drunk, but he was still very clear and asked, "Can you drive after drinking?"

Dong Qian said: "I drink less, and there is an automatic assist system in the car, so nothing is wrong. No one usually checks this time period."

Seeing that Dong Qian was very sober, Gao Xu did not persuade her much.

At this time, Xiao Deng said in his voice: "I'm going back too, just call a taxi."

Gao Xu shook his head and said, "You stay here, we will send you home tonight." He turned to Miao Jin and said, "I'll go see Wang Cheng and the others first."

Miao Jin nodded, stood up and said goodbye to Wang Cheng and his wife.

The three of them went out to the garage. When Gao Xu saw Dong Qian sitting in the cab, he reminded her again and asked her to drive slowly. Gao Xu returned to the house and saw that the two waiters had finished cleaning the restaurant and were about to leave, he thanked them.

The right way is that there is no banquet that will last forever in the world. The chefs, guests, and waiters left one after another, and there were only three people left in the whole house. Gao Xu thought about it and rested for a while. When Miaojin sobered up the sweet red wine that she drank, she asked her to drive and take Xiao Deng back together.

There were three women tonight, only Xiao Deng was drinking white wine, and she seemed to have something to worry about. Gao Xu recalled the scene of sending her home for the first time, her strange words at the last time at the cocktail party, and her disgusting expression when she saw the dice tonight.

He vaguely guessed what Xiao Deng was worried about, but he didn't understand why. But he couldn't ask others about his private affairs directly.

Gao Xu sat back to the cool swimming pool, took a sip of orange juice, and said, "What Xiaowan said before makes sense. No matter what, people will eventually be loyal to their nature. They are free and unrestricted."

Xiao Deng immediately turned to look at Gao Xu, as if he was very interested in his words.

Seeing this, Gao Xu said again: "Modern people are even more so. A while ago, at our reception in the capital, Xiao Deng expressed his gratitude many times and stated that he would not be poached. I thought it was a bit strange. However, it was not convenient to speak at that time, so I didn't say much."

Xiao Deng's face turned red after drinking, but he was still sober: "I really thought so. Originally, I was just a college student who had just graduated. If it weren't for Mr. Liu, how could he have any capital? I just got a little better and wanted to find another way out. Then I wouldn't be an ungrateful person?"

Miao Jin didn't make any conversation. She leaned on the chair and listened silently to the conversation between the two.

Gao Xu shook his head and said, "I advise you not to change jobs for the time being, but I just think you can experience more and accumulate experience. The time is not ripe now. It is not that you will not change jobs forever."

He pondered for a moment, "We have been in industrial civilization for many years, and we have long lost the social foundation of personal dependence. I can't have unrealistic fantasies about almost anyone, let alone just employees. It's meaningless to kidnap you. What you get from me is something that can be given to you without additional conditions, and you don't have to have any psychological burden; if you want to get extra benefits, I won't give it to you either."

Gao Xu paused and said a few more relaxed words, "Just like an ordinary friend who comes to borrow money, the amount I can borrow is limited to the acceptance that can be given away and cannot be recycled, otherwise I will just bear it myself. Will I bear it myself? I think I am a person with relatively mature thinking."

Little Deng Honghong's red face was covered with confusion, and after a while she asked slowly, "Why?"

Gao Xu said casually: "Because I also need you and Wang Cheng. It's not a specific thing. As long as you are reliable, have certain relevant abilities, and are willing to do your best, I will do what I do now. The main reason we can get together is that fate is 'just'. The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, so don't think so complicated."

He smiled: "Even if you or Wang Cheng work for a long time with me, I hope it is not because of being forced to bind morally, but based on satisfaction and friendship."

Xiao Deng changed his position, leaned forward, faced the clear water in the pool, and gently rubbed his cheeks with his hands for a while. She seemed to be thinking about something, "What is the extra benefit? Is there no extra benefit at all for the reward Mr. Liu paid?"

Gao Xu thought for a moment, raised his hand and gestured, and described: "It is probably the expectation of reward. Therefore, people who give extra benefits often hope that the other party is 'psychically' grateful, and the 'behavior' reward is not limited to emotional value. Otherwise, why are they not exchanging equally? The exchange of value has been completed, but why do people need to be grateful?"

He turned his head and looked at Miao Jin, who was half lying on the chair, and smiled, "For example, if I just met Xiaowan, I gave her a valuable gift. Is that just because of social etiquette? I am looking forward to extra things, such as accompanying me to bed. She understands that she either doesn't accept the gift or will have to pay back."

"Vulgar!" Miao Jin gave him a blank look and curled his mouth.

Xiao Deng suddenly turned his head, his emotions were a little impulsive under the fermentation of alcohol, "Then do you think your parents have given additional benefits?"

The smile on Gao Xu's face soon disappeared completely. The topic was a bit heavy, and he couldn't respond rashly. Moreover, people eat grains and have all kinds of people, how can they generalize it?

He was silent for a moment, feeling the topic was concrete, so he asked quietly, "Is your father gambled for money?"

Xiao Deng's surprise and surprised expression made Gao Xu immediately understand that he seemed to be guessing correctly.

She calmed down and rubbed her cheeks again, as if her heart was irritated by the stimulation of white wine.

Miao Jin's voice said: "We have no malice. We may not be able to help much, but we can let you say it out. Maybe we can feel better? Besides, gambling - money is not a good thing, and we can't blame you."

"Dad is gambled - money and borrowed a lot of debts." Xiao Deng said this very calmly, "But after I got Mr. Liu's huge check, I felt even more distressed."

Miao Jin glanced at Gao Xu. Gao Xu knew that he was the most experienced. He immediately said, "If you give him the money, he will guarantee that he will not pay off his debts, but will continue to bet."

"No..." Xiao Deng shook his head.

Gao Xu was a little helpless when he heard this.

Xiao Deng said, "The reason for my distress is not my father, but my mother." When she said this, her red face seemed to be slid slightly, "Mom would also advise me not to give him the money (dad). She knew that she had so much money, she would divorce him and live with me."

Xiao Deng's face seemed a little distorted, "I really don't want to live with her. In comparison, I would rather father take the money and lose it."

Gao Xu was surprised. He was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.

This usually quiet and a little introverted girl is simple and sensible in daily life, but she sneered at this moment, and her look was completely disproportionate to her image, making people vaguely feel that she has let go of herself. Perhaps it was because of the catalysis of alcohol.

Her expression was full of complex negative emotions, with vague hatred and disgust. The expression gradually dissipated, and Xiao Deng murmured a little depressedly: "She got married very early and used to put everything on her family. My father got involved in gambling and drinking for a while, and he tossed many times, and finally made her completely disappointed. So everything about her was placed on me. She would secretly observe, interrogate my life, and be very interested in every detail. There are even some things that I don't want to be peeped at, even if she is my biological mother. I feel that my self-esteem has been completely torn apart..."

"She is very kind to me and takes good care of me in life. She often says that I am everything about her, and all her hopes, she can't live without me." Xiao Deng smiled bitterly, and after a while he sighed, "I feel like I'm schizophrenia. There is a feeling that I'm very irritable and violent, and I will recall the shame-humiliation when I was a child, and even hope that she will sooner... There is a feeling that I feel sorry for her, and I want her to live a good life in the future and enjoy things that I have never had before."

Xiao Deng ejaculated and seemed to start to regret it. She quickly fell silent. The three of them sat next to the swimming pool together, speechless for a moment.
