Chapter 25: Horseback riding
The streets of Shanghai are so long that you can't see the end at a glance.
The streets are lined with tall plane trees and ginkgo trees, and the fallen leaves under the trees are almost all golden, and the sunlight casts a layer of light, which is very beautiful.
Su Qingwan quietly looked at the scenery passing by outside the car window, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily hooked slightly.
"Wanwan, we'll go see the horse races later. ”
Su Qingwan turned his head and glanced at Su Jinfeng, and nodded slowly, "Okay." ”
Xuhui District is not a commercial center, and the geographical boundaries are remote, but the scenery is really good. By the time they arrived, there were a lot of people and it seemed that the event was getting a lot of attention.
"In recent years, some young ladies and wives from wealthy families in Shanghai have become more and more enthusiastic about golf and horse racing, and today is the highlight of this year, so there are more people than in the past. Su Jinfeng explained softly in her ear while helping Su Qingwan separate the crowd.
Su Qingwan smiled and nodded, and entered the viewing floor with him.
As soon as I reached the staircase on the second floor, a waiter with a bow tie came out to stop me. "Sorry, there are important guests on the third floor right now, please move to the second floor to watch. ”
Su Jinfeng smiled, "I have an appointment with your Boss Zhou in advance. ”
But the man stood still as if he had not heard.
"I'm sorry. ”
Su Jinfeng was stunned.
Boss Zhou of the Horse Racing Association didn't give face, what kind of big man is coming upstairs.
"Second brother, it's okay, let's go directly to the racecourse. ”
Su Qingwan pulled his sleeve and smiled softly, "It just so happens that I want to try it too." ”
Su Jinfeng had no choice but to nod his head, "That's it." ”
Saying that, she stretched out her hand and pulled her, and was about to go out, Su Qingwan glanced at the hand he was holding her, pursed her lips, and was about to pull out, when a voice behind her suddenly sounded.
"Su Jinfeng, what are you doing here?"
When Su Qingwan heard this voice, she couldn't help but stand up in her heart, she quickly withdrew her hand and turned to look over.
Li Fengqing glanced at her coldly, then turned to look at the people beside her, "There are only a few days left in our engagement ceremony, you seem to be quite idle." ”
Su Jinfeng took a few steps forward and looked at her with a frown. "Fengqing, you and I both know that this pretending marriage is just for show. ”
Li Fengqing raised his eyebrows, "Su Jinfeng, you have to do enough for me." She said and looked at Su Qingwan, her eyes were a little colder, "Because there is still the face of the Li family to take care of, and my face to take care of, as for you, on this occasion today, you can bring other women, I guess you don't care about any face!"
Su Qingwan finally looked up at her, "Miss Li may have misunderstood, I grew up with my second brother since childhood, and it is the righteousness of brother and sister." ”
"The righteousness of brother and sister?" Li Fengqing walked over step by step, standing in front of Su Qingwan, his voice was extremely low. "Do you really think that I don't know that you are not related by blood? Su Qingxuan, your methods are really powerful. ”
Su Jinfeng walked over and grabbed her arm, and his tone was already resentful, "Fengqing, don't be so unreasonable." ”
Li Fengqing sneered, "Su Jinfeng, I'm quite unreasonable? ”
Su Jinfeng didn't want to entangle with her anymore, so he pulled Su Qingwan and walked out the door, "Wait for Miss Li to calm down, Jinfeng will come to visit again." ”
Li Fengqing stared at their backs tightly, and said hatefully, "Su Qingwan, it's you again." ”
Although there are not many people coming and going on the second floor, it is also complicated, and not far behind Li Fengqing, there are two people who are avoiding her, and they look in her direction from time to time.
"Don't you think that woman just now looks familiar?"
The skinny man hiding in the back turned his head to the fat man next to him and said. The fat man looked at him and whispered something in his ear.
The thin man suddenly realized, thought for a while, and then turned his head and asked, "She's all here, isn't it possible that the master on the third floor is ......?"
"Most of the time you can't go wrong. The fat man was also a little excited, he patted the thin man's shoulder and instructed, "You go to the staircase and wait, I'll go and inform Meng Ye, be smart, maybe you can get a benefit." ”
The thin man nodded hurriedly when he heard the benefits, "Don't worry, I'll guard it now." ”
The horse race has begun at this moment, and the people outside are very lively, but the atmosphere on the third floor is completely different, extremely quiet.
The tall figure standing in front of the window quietly looked at the arena, and the ash on the cigarette in his left hand had accumulated for a while, as if it had been burning for a while.
"Second Master is interested in this horse race?" a respectful voice came from behind him.
Gu Shaoting's face was expressionless, "Good business naturally has to be done." ”
The man behind him replied happily, "With the words of the second master, Zhou is relieved." ”
Gu Shaoting shook the ashes of his cigarette and turned around. "Boss Zhou, happy cooperation. ”
"It's a pleasure to work with, it's a pleasure to work with. ”
Boss Zhou responded with a smile and a loud voice.
At this time, someone knocked lightly on the door, and Zhou Yong walked in from outside the door and lowered his head, "Second master, it's arranged." ”
"Hmm. ”
Gu Shaoting raised his hand and lit another cigarette, put on his coat and walked out the door.
As soon as he got down the floor, he saw a person standing at the top of the stairs, Gu Shaoting took a puff of cigarette and stopped.
Meng Lisheng greeted him with a smile, "It's really the second master who is here." ”
Gu Shaoting tugged at the corners of his mouth lightly, "Boss Meng's news is really well-informed. ”
Boss Zhou behind him broke out in a cold sweat. "Second master, I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding here......"
Meng Lisheng hurriedly explained, "Second master, I really don't blame Boss Zhou for this, it's my two subordinates who are lucky to meet Miss Su." ”
Gu Shaoting's smoking hand paused, and his eyes deepened.
"Who are you talking about?"
Meng Lisheng turned his head to look at the thin man beside him, and asked sharply, "You said it yourself, but you were wrong." ”
The thin man waved his hand nervously, "It's the woman I saw in the newspaper last time, the birthday party of the eldest lady of the Li family, the front page is ......"
Gu Shaoting looked at him, his tone was not angry, "You might be sure who you are talking about?"
The skinny man was even more nervous, "That's it...... It is...... The girl who was with you last time at the birthday party. ”
Gu Shaoting looked at him quietly, "Where is she?"
"I just heard her say that she was going to the Huayang Horse Farm next door, as if she was going to ride a horse......"
Gu Shaoting was silent for a moment and did not speak.
The thin man thought that he was doubting himself, and hurriedly continued, "It won't be wrong, it's her, and she came with the second young master of the Su family." ”
He remembered that there was news that the woman was the fourth lady of the Su family.
Unexpectedly, Gu Shaoting's face became even lighter when he heard this.
Meng Lisheng saw the opportunity to come out to play a round, "Second master, my batch of goods ......"
Gu Shaoting smiled lightly, "Boss Meng is really a businessman. ”
"Second master, Meng is by no means a person who does not know how to lift, I can exchange a message. Meng Lisheng's eyes flashed faintly. "The second master thinks it's worth it, but if he thinks it's not worth it, I have nothing to say, how about it?"
Gu Shaoting put away his coat, and there was no wave on his face, "Boss Meng, please speak." ”
Meng Lisheng glanced at the thin man and ordered, "Tell the second master what you just heard, as it is." ”
The thin man looked at Meng Lisheng's face before saying, "Two...... Second master, just now Miss Su and Miss Li had some disputes, and I heard Miss Li later say...... He said he wanted to give her some color to see, and then he went in the direction of the horse farm. ”
Gu Shaoting's eyes sharpened, "When is it?" The thin man couldn't help but shudder when he met his gaze, "Yes...... It's been a while. ”
Gu Shaoting pinched his cigarette and said in a deep voice.
"Boss Meng's favor, Gu wrote it down. With that, he turned around and left.
The thin man was relieved to see him gone, and asked softly. "Meng Ye, did he agree?"
"I've taken advantage of this one. Meng Lisheng stared at the back in the distance, his eyes were unpredictable, "I just didn't expect that Gu Erye, who has always been rational and calm, would also be angry." ”
The thin man didn't understand, but he didn't dare to ask more.
Meng Lisheng narrowed his eyes and continued, "This woman is really a good card, it seems that I have to plan how to use this card."
