Chapter VII Shanghai
Shanghai.
What these two words represent, Su Qingwan didn't know. The second brother mentioned the city more than once in the letters he sent her, and he used words of praise that were overflowing. And one of the words he mentions most often is prosperity.
There is a surge of people and a lot of traffic. High-rise buildings, gilded city.
Su Qingwan looked at the gentlemen and ladies in gorgeous clothes and smiling faces outside the window, and thought that it was indeed appropriate to use this word to define the city.
"Miss, they've all gotten off the train, let's go too!" Chunsheng called her at the entrance of the carriage with the package.
Su Qingwan got up and straightened the slightly wrinkled plain cheongsam on her body, and got out of the car with Chunsheng. They got off the train a little later than the others, so the exit was not as crowded as Fang Cai.
Chunsheng looked around excitedly, turned his head to her and sighed.
"Miss, this place is completely different from Beiping!"
Su Qingwan smiled. "It's different. ”
"Miss, look at the clothes they are wearing" Chunsheng pointed to the two girls walking in front of them with an exaggerated expression, and shrank his head and whispered to Su Qingwan.
"The shoulders and calves are exposed!"
Su Qingwan glanced up, not surprised, but joking at Chunsheng.
"The letter I read with you before seems to have been read in vain, and the second brother mentioned in the letter that the young ladies in Shanghai are wearing this kind of dress. ”
"Dress"
Chunsheng tilted her head and tried to think about it, and after a while, her eyes finally lit up, as if she remembered. Chunsheng happily turned his head and was about to say something to Su Qingwan, but he was suddenly hit the shoulder.
"Ahh
Chunsheng screamed in pain.
Su Qingwan's heart lifted slightly, and subconsciously pulled Chunsheng, and her left hand immediately touched her shoulder, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"It's not hurt, is it?"
Chunsheng shook his head, turned to look at the figure who had already walked away, and turned around and said angrily.
"It's rude! I bumped into someone and left without even saying an apology. ”
"It's good that people are okay. ”
Su Qingwan rubbed her shoulders lightly, turned her head and glanced back, then pulled Chunsheng and continued to walk forward. After walking a few steps, Chunsheng shouted.
"Miss!"
Su Qingwan was startled, turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" Chunsheng stood in place and his little face turned white.
"Our money bags are gone"
Su Qingwan was stunned, and hurriedly pulled her to a place where there were few people on the side of the road to stand still, and there was a rare trace of anxiety in her voice.
"Maybe it's a mistake, don't worry, look carefully. ”
Chunsheng rummaged through his whole body in a panic, and finally he was about to cry in a hurry. "There is no Miss. ”
Su Qingwan naturally saw that the loss of the money bag had become a fact, she held Chunsheng's hand tightly and comforted softly. "Chunsheng, out of the way"
"I see! It must be the guy who hit me just now!"
Chunsheng seemed to have suddenly figured out something, raised his hand and put the package on his shoulder into Su Qingwan's arms, and asked her eagerly.
"Miss, you wait for me here, I'll go and get the money bag back!" he said, turning and running backwards.
"Chunsheng!"
Su Qingwan was in a hurry, but she didn't have time to hold her. Chunsheng ran fast again, and he was almost gone. Su Qingwan was shocked in her heart, so she had to find her back and chase after her.
When Su Qingwan caught up with Chunsheng, she saw her dragging someone's arm and refusing to let go, and seemed to be saying something urgently.
Su Qingwan hurriedly walked over two steps, and only when he got closer did he hear Qing Chunsheng's words.
"It's clearly you, after you hit me, my money bag is gone!" The man who was dragged looked extremely helpless. "Why are you unreasonable!"
Su Qingwan calmed down slightly, and in a blink of an eye, he began to carefully look at the person who was in a stalemate with Chunsheng. The man was dressed in a formal suit, with a silver-gray top hat on his head, and his face was clean and delicate, but he didn't look big, as if he was the same age as Chunsheng.
It's just a teenager.
When Chunsheng saw Su Qingwan, the sadness and fright just now came to his heart, and he couldn't help crying aggrievedly, "Miss"
The young man in the silver-gray top hat was a little flustered when he saw her crying.
"Don't cry when you don't cry"
Su Qingwan walked next to Chunsheng, took her hand and pulled her behind him, and bowed her head gently to the young man. "I'm sorry, sir, but my sister has caused you trouble. The boy hurriedly waved his hand. "No, no, no"
Chunsheng muttered unwillingly behind Su Qingwan, "It's obviously only him"
"Hey, you girl" The young man pointed at Chun angrily, and glanced at Su Qingwan lightly in the middle of the conversation, before he withdrew his hand embarrassedly and continued to finish his words in a low voice. "It's unreasonable"
"Tenth Master, Ten Masters!" At this time, a group of people ran in the distance, and the leader shouted from afar. "Tenth Master, which little girl is entangled with you!" The young man didn't appreciate it, and when he saw the leader, he scolded him. "! Zhao Pizi! Is this a good thing done by your subordinates, go and check it out for me!"
The person who was called Zhao Pizi looked at the scene in front of him as if he immediately understood, and hurriedly put on a smile on his face, and agreed continuously. "Yes, yes, you dissipate your anger, I'll check it out immediately!" said and led a few people away in a hurry.
After a while, Zhao Pizi came back, and he really had a money bag in his hand. Chunsheng recognized it at a glance and couldn't help but shout, "That's our money bag!"
Zhao Pizi hurriedly put the money bag on with both hands, handed it in his hand, and didn't forget to chew it in his mouth. "Oh, I'm really sorry for the two young ladies, they both blame the new brother for not knowing Taishan, and offending people who shouldn't be offended"
"Okay, okay, you're talking nonsense!" the boy interrupted him with a frown, his face impatient.
Su Qingwan took the money bag, nodded at Zhao Pizi, and turned to the young man to gesture slightly. "Thank you, sir. Chunsheng pursed his lips, "Miss, don't thank him, it's not his subordinates who did it." ”
The young man's eyes widened, and his voice suddenly rose, "I, Qiu Shicai, am not the one who does this kind of thing!"
Zhao Pizi on the side nodded again and again, "The Tenth Master is definitely not such a person, and besides, we just want to work under the Tenth Master, but he refuses." ”
"Shut up!" Qiu Shi said fiercely to Zhao Pizi, and Zhao Pizi was immediately silenced.
Su Qingwan looked at Qiu Shi, his face was calm and lowered his eyes slightly, and he said goodbye politely. "Thank you, sir, for today's events, I still have something to do with my sister, so I won't bother. After speaking, he pulled Chunsheng and turned around and left.
Qiu Shiyi was stunned, but felt that the woman in front of him was different from the one he had encountered. On the beach, he has made friends with all the ladies and the popular top brands, but this woman has a unique temperament, and even he subconsciously does not dare to treat it casually.
It's weird, weird.
"Ten masters" Zhao Pizi looked at the sky and spoke tentatively, "The sixth master has arrived." Qiu Shiyi came back to his senses, "The sixth brother has arrived?!" said hurriedly walking out. "Prepare the car!"
The night in Shanghai is much brighter than in Beiping, and the alleys at night are also lively. Su Qingwan and Chunsheng stayed in a clean hotel in Xiaodongmen. Tidy up the clothes and put things away, and it was late at night when the two of them finished freshening up.
Su Qingwan gently pulled up her loose hair and said to Chunsheng who was making the bed.
"Chunsheng, you can't be so reckless in the future. ”
Chunsheng nodded obediently in response. "I see, miss. ”
The night was like water, and the room seemed to be simmering with some early summer heat, which was a little stuffy. Chunsheng laid out the futon, turned around and said to Su Qingwan with a smile. "Miss, that person is really interesting today. ”
Su Qingwan got up and opened the window in the room to breathe, although his tone was light but implied a hint of heaviness. "Chunsheng, that person is not an ordinary person. ”
Chunsheng nodded thoughtfully. "Looks like a rich boy......"
Su Qingwan turned to look at Chunsheng.
"Chunsheng, his silver-gray suit alone is enough for us to stay in this small hotel for three months. ”
Chunsheng gasped, but he couldn't speak.
Su Qingwan actually didn't say it thoroughly, and the identity of the young man he met today was not so simple. The so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, let alone such a complex boundary in Shanghai. Zhao Pizi, who stole their money, must also be a tyrant to some extent, but he obeyed the young man's words and did not dare to slack off.
Thinking of this, Su Qingwan's mind inevitably fluctuated, she walked over with a slight frown, her voice was slightly low but the words were clear.
"Chunsheng, some people, I'm afraid that we will never have another intersection. ”
