Chapter 493: Old Friends Meet
The next day, Mingyuantang asked Su Qingyun to accompany him to meet someone.
The two of them came to a beautiful two-story small western-style building, and Ming Yuantang greeted the one at the door and took Su Qingyun in.
A woman came out of it when she heard the message below.
Seeing this woman, Su Qingyun was stunned for a moment, this woman was the Tan Chuchu he was looking for. Su Qingyun's heart couldn't help but flicker, he originally had a good impression of Tan Chuchu, but a series of things later made him feel that this woman was not simple.
The woman was obviously not surprised to see Su Qingyun, he should have known that Su Qingyun was coming.
Tan Chuchu walked in front of Su Qingyun and said with a smile, "Brother Su, you are here." β
Su Qingyun also smiled and said, "Miss Tan, I didn't expect us to meet here." β
"When we broke up in Cloud City, I said that I was coming to Hong Kong Island, didn't Brother Su forget. β
Hearing Tan Chuchu's words, Su Qingyun did not continue to answer, but asked, "Miss Tan has been on Hong Kong Island for so long, she should be very familiar with Hong Kong Island, and she will take me out with Cousin Yuan when she has time." β
"That's as it should be. Tan Chuchu said with a smile.
The three of them sat down, and Su Qingyun looked at it from the corner of his eye. The dΓ©cor of this small building is decorated in a Western style, with teak floors, pale yellow sofas, and thick cashmere carpets in front of the sofas.
On both sides of the living room are floor-to-ceiling glass windows, hung with purple gauze curtains, and the wind blows in and gently floats. The wall on the other side is a primitive red brick, and a painting that Su Qingyun can't understand hangs. The whole decoration of the living room looks magnificent.
Of course, there is nothing strange about this, Tan Chuchu is a child of the Tan family after all.
A very fresh and lovely girl wearing a light blue apron brought tea over. Ming Yuantang's eyes fell on the girl's face.
The girl put down the teacup and felt that someone was watching her, and her smiling face suddenly turned red, and she put down the teacup and hurried away.
Ming Yuantang smiled and said to Tan Chuchu, "Chuchu, you are a good maid. β
Tan Chuchu glared at Ming Yuantang, "Mingyuantang, why haven't you changed your amorous habits, look at Brother Su, it's different from you." β
"Come on, men are all the same, Brother Su ...... last night" Mingyuantang just wanted to say something, but knowing that he had missed his mouth, he dared to stop. If he said it, it would mean that he was sending someone to follow Su Qingyun.
"Brother Su, don't mind, we both grew up together, so we talk more casually. Tan Chuchu explained to Su Qingyun with a smile.
Su Qingyun smiled faintly, "It's okay, it's good for you to be like this." β
"Chu Chu, you little maid might as well give it to me. Ming Yuantang said with a smile.
"If you stop, I'll give it to Brother Su, and I won't give it to you. Don't be delusional. β
"Mingyuantang, how is our Tan family doing?" Tan Chuchu asked.
A few people chatted for a while about inconsequential topics, and Su Qingyun secretly wondered in his heart, what did Ming Yuantang mean by bringing himself here, did he just want to let himself meet Tan Chuchu, this was completely unnecessary.
After chatting for a while, Ming Yuantang said that he still had something to do, so he stood up and wanted to leave. Su Qingyun also stood up, but was stopped by Tan Chuchu.
"Brother Su, you have been feeling a little unwell recently, you can help me take a look. β
Hearing Tan Chuchu's words, Su Qingyun stopped, he wanted to see what kind of medicine was bought in this Tan Chuchu gourd. So he glanced at Mingyuan Hall.
Ming Yuantang immediately understood what Su Qingyun meant, "Brother Qingyun, since Chu Chu is not feeling well, you are the doctor who stays to see him." β
Su Qingyun didn't actually need to ask for Ming Yuantang's opinion, he just wanted to find out what Ming Yuantang meant, and see if this was something they had discussed in advance.
Seeing Ming Yuantang's expression, Su Qingyun somewhat understood, this is probably a bureau set up by Ming Yuantang and Tan Chuchu, as for what this bureau is for, Su Qingyun has no way to guess it now. He can only take one step at a time now to see what this Tan Chuchu and Ming Yuantang are going to do.
Mingyuantang left, leaving Su Qingyun behind.
"Miss Tan, where are you uncomfortable, I'll check your pulse. Su Qingyun said to Tan Chuchu.
Tan Chuchu heard Su Qingyun's words, and laughed out loud, "Brother Su, I'm not sick, we haven't seen each other for a long time, I just want to say a few words to you." β
Hearing this, Su Qingyun laughed, "Miss Tan, what do you want to tell me." β
Su Qingyun leaned his back on the sofa, lifted one leg to the other, and relaxed his whole body.
"Miss Tan, do you have a cigar here?" Su Qingyun didn't know why he suddenly liked the taste of the cigar, and only by relaxing himself at this time could he make the other party relax.
"Yes, Brother Su, when did you learn to smoke cigars?" Tan Chuchu remembered that Su Qingyun didn't know how to smoke at all before.
"Miss Tan, you don't mind if I smoke. Su Qingyun didn't answer his question, but asked another question.
"No, no, I love the crisp smell of the cigar. Tan Chuchu smiled and asked the maid to take out the cigar.
The fresh girl just now took out the cigar and put it on the table in front of Su Qingyun, and then went down.
Su Qingyun took out a cigar, put it in his mouth, then lit it with a match, took a puff, and suddenly the room had the crisp smell of cigars.
Looking at Su Qingyun's appearance, Tan Chuchu's heart was a little
Throb. Although this man is not very handsome, he has a different taste. His eyes are deep, so deep that it's unpredictable.
"Brother Su, I want to tell you something. Tan Chuchu said suddenly.
"What's the matter, Miss Tan said. β
"Brother Su, in fact, I am a person from the Five Star Hall, and the last time I took you to the beach in Cloud City, I actually wanted to assassinate you. Tan Chuchu bit his lip and said.
Tan Chuchu's words made Su Qingyun feel shocked. What surprised him was not the matter itself, but why Tan Chuchu wanted to tell himself about this now, whether he was going to show a surprised expression now or show an expression of knowing it.
Finally, Su Qingyun said lightly, "I know." β
The reason why Su Qingyun said this was that he felt that Tan Chuchu should probably know about him and Martian Jun by now, after all, this matter was a big deal, and it was wrapped in paper.
"It's just that I don't understand, why did you join the Five Star Hall, you are a dignified Miss of the Tan family, and you also saved my life on the train. If you want to kill me, why do you want to save me? Su Qingyun showed a puzzled expression.
"What I told you in Cloud City before is not false and true, although the Tan family is powerful, but for the benefit of the entire family, the Tan family will not take us women in their eyes. β
"We're just a bargaining chip for them to gain. Tan Chuchu said faintly.
Hearing Tan Chuchu's words, Su Qingyun did not speak, and continued to smoke the cigar in his hand, and a faint wisp of smoke wrapped him up.
Tan Chuchu glanced at Su Qingyun and continued, "Brother Su, things have come to this point, and I won't hide it from you. β
Tan Chuchu paused for a moment and said, "The Five Star Hall originally had people from our Tan family, and Jupiter Jun was a member of our Tan family, he mixed into the Five Star Hall many years ago, and later became the master of the Jupiter Hall. β
"However, the person who took your order is the hall master of the Venus Hall. We also found out later, but the rules of our Five Star Hall cannot be reversed after receiving an order, and the other party will not die. β
"But Brother Su, one thing I can tell you is that we never thought of killing you, the person who wanted to kill you on the train was someone from Mercury Hall, I saw it at the time and gave her a shot, I wanted to save you at that time. β
"Later, Mercury-kun knew that I was in Cloud City, so he asked me to take you to the beach, and I had no choice at that time, I had to disobey his order, that is, to kill without mercy. β
"However, at the time, I also thought that if you were really in danger, I would definitely do my best to protect you. β
Tan Chuchu talked about the past endlessly, and in the end, she said, "Brother Su, you saved my grandfather's life, the lives of everyone in our Tan family." β
"Although I don't have any feelings for the Tan family, I still hope that the entire Tan family has nothing to do, so that I can also have something to rely on. β
"If you can't forgive me for the hurt I did to you in the past, shoot me with one shot, and I don't complain about it. Tan Chuchu handed a small pistol to Su Qingyun.
Su Qingyun didn't stretch out his hand to take it, but said, "Miss Tan, you saved me and killed me." Let's write off the old accounts with the new accounts. β
"Take the gun back, our personnel are written off. Su Qingyun felt that what Tan Chuchu said was true or false.
Tan Chuchu was also secretly observing the expression on Su Qingyun's face, wanting to see if Su Qingyun was sincere. Su Qingyun's face was very sincere, not like a fake.
Tan Chuchu stood up and grabbed Su Qingyun's hand, "Brother Su, thank you." β
Su Qingyun didn't expect Tan Chuchu to do this, so he quickly withdrew his hand, "It's a write-off, and I won't say this anymore." β
Tan Chuchu suddenly became sad, his eyes turned red, and tears swirled in his eyes.
"Miss Tan, what's wrong with you. Su Qingyun said with some unknowing.
"Brother Su, I remember when you were in Cloud City, you called me Chu Chu, why do you suddenly call me Miss Tan now, it seems that the relationship between us is so unfamiliar. β
"Ever since you brought my grandmother back from the Ghost Gate, I have always missed you in my heart, otherwise I wouldn't have come out of the Tan family. β
"Brother Su, if you don't dislike it, I'm willing to be your confidante. β
"I know you have a wife, I don't want a name, I don't want status, just be your confidante. The more Tan Chuchu spoke, the more excited he became, and his tears couldn't stop falling.
Su Qingyun's brows couldn't help frowning, God gave him medical skills, how could he still give himself so much peach blossom luck. Tan Chuchu, this woman, he is becoming more and more incomprehensible now, and he doesn't know what he said is true and which one is false.
"Miss Tan, this is not appropriate, it is not appropriate. Su Qingyun waved his hand again and again.
Tan Chuchu came over again and sat down next to Su Qingyun, Su Qingyun moved his body, "Miss Tan, you respect yourself, let's make our words clear." If you're okay, I'll go first. β
Su Qingyun didn't want to stay here, he had always been wise, but when he met a woman, especially this kind of woman, he felt uncomfortable.
"Okay, Brother Su, I won't tease you anymore. I have something to tell you. Tan Chuchu heard that Su Qingyun was leaving, and returned to his seat.
"Brother Su, aren't you enemies with Ming Yuantang, it's that he and Qian Jizu hired Five Star Hall to kill you, why are you with him. Tan Chuchu's expression really became serious.
"Miss Tan, you should know that there are no eternal enemies and no eternal friends in this world. There are only interests
, Ming Yuantang gave me what I wanted, and of course my enmity with him was resolved. β
Tan Chuchu nodded, "Aren't you afraid that Mingyuan Hall will use you?" β
Su Qingyun smiled, "It's good to use me, being able to be used by others shows that I am worth." β
"Brother Su, I don't think you are a person who clings to the rich, if you cling to the rich and noble people saved my grandfather's life at that time, you will slap our Tan family. Tan Chuchu's thinking was very clear, and he felt that Su Qingyun was not that kind of person.
"I'm with Ming Yuantang, it's not that I'm clinging to his wealth, I just want to turn enemies into friends with him, as the saying goes, one more friend, many roads, many enemies, and many walls. β
"Especially in this troubled world, it's not a good thing to offend a family like the Ming family, if I don't offend the Ming family, he won't hire the Five Star Hall to kill me. β
"In troubled times, human life is like mustard. If we don't cherish it ourselves, then there is really no way to live. Su Qingyun said lightly.
Hearing Su Qingyun like this, Tan Chuchu nodded, this is true, although Su Qingyun does not cling to wealth, but at least don't offend wealth. This does him no good.
Tan Chuchu originally wanted to test Su Qingyun this time, after Mingyuantang told him about Tan Chuchu, he felt that things were not so simple, Tan Chuchu was worried that Su Qingyun deliberately approached Mingyuantang for some purpose,
Now hearing Su Qingyun say this, half of the doubts in his heart were dispelled.
"Brother Su, you are living right, it seems that you are now seeing the world more and more transparently. You will definitely be a person who will do great things in the future, and maybe you will be crowned a king and a prince. Tan Chuchu admired Su Qingyun from the bottom of his heart.
"I'm just a little doctor, what can I do, just eat with my mouth, and just be safe. Su Qingyun said very modestly, this is his consistent style, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, he understands this truth.
Coming out of Tan Chuchu's house, Su Qingyun went straight back to the hotel. Of course, there were still people following him behind him, and Su Qingyun just smiled.
Mingyuantang is not in the hotel, so I don't know what to do. However, he didn't panic, he knew in his heart that Tan Chuchu left him behind just to let Mingyuantang do things. Just brought himself to Tan Chuchu and listened to him explain what happened before, things were not so simple.
Su Qingyun had already said hello to Qin Wuye, and asked Qin Wuye to send someone to keep an eye on the dock of the old man's house, and once there was a disturbance, he would know immediately.
Su Qingyun was bored in the house, and came to the lobby of the hotel to chat with the waiter.
While we were talking, a man walked in. The person who came was Fang Shaoqing. Su Qingyun didn't know what was going on with the young master of the Fang family coming here.
Fang Shaoqing happened to see Su Qingyun and walked over directly, "Mr. Su, it's really good to see you." β
"Young Master Fang, you came to find me. β
"Mr. Su, please save our family. Fang Shaoqing knelt down for Su Qingyun as he spoke.
Su Qingyun hurriedly helped Fang Shaoqing up, "Young Master Fang has something to say." β
"Young Master Su, our Fang family can't survive now, you and Young Master Ming are friends, you can help me say goodbye and let him help our Fang family." β
Hearing this, Su Qingyun frowned, he didn't expect Fang Shaoqing to come back to ask for Mingyuan Hall again.
"Young Master Fang, the last time you were in the hotel, you also saw that Young Master Ming wanted your sister to accompany her for a few days, don't you come here now and beg him to be in the mouth of a wolf. β
"Young Master Su, I really have no choice, if our Fang family doesn't have the help of Young Master Ming, it will really be over. β
"My sister has been sent to the country, and he can't beat my sister anymore. Fang Shaoqing said.
"Young Master Fang, now that Young Master Ming is no longer going out, what kind of business is your family, I'll see if I can help." Su Qingyun said.
Hearing Su Qingyun's words, Fang Shaoqing said, "Our family is engaged in the silk business, mainly by sea transportation. There was no batch of silk that was stopped by the master. β
"That master said that Young Master Ming asked him to stop him, let us find him. β
"This batch of silk is owned by our Fang family, and my father also borrowed a money. If this batch of silk doesn't come, then our Fang family will be bankrupt, and we may have to be entangled in lawsuits. β
"Why don't you go to the police department to sue that master?" asked Su Qingyun.
"Alas, most of these years are the protection of officials and officials, and it is useless for us to sue. Fang Shaoqing sighed.
Hearing this, Su Qingyun understood, it seemed that Ming Yuantang had deliberately detained the Fang family's ship.
Su Qingyun's eyes rolled and he had an idea, since the Fang family's ship was still on the dock, if that batch of things were put on this ship at that time, no one would suspect it.
Thinking of this, Su Qingyun said with a smile, "Young Master Fang, I can't help you get your things back, but I can give you money to buy all the silk on your ship." β
Hearing this, Fang Shaoqing immediately said gratefully, "Young Master Su, is it true, you really want to buy it." β
"Yes, I bought it, these things are mine, Young Master Ming, he won't embarrass me. β
"However, don't talk about this matter for the time being, I'll find an opportunity to tell Young Master Ming later. β
"That's great, that's great. Fang Shaoqing said very gratefully, this really saved the lives of their entire Fang family.
Su Qingyun wrote a note to Fang Shaoqing and asked him to take this to the place he said to get the money.
