"Why are you back?"

At the banquet, the staggered bargains. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Shen Qian held the red wine glass, raised it to the side of his arm, and asked in a low voice Lu Xian, who had already changed into a suit, he was also a natural hanger, and he switched various styles effortlessly.

"Isn't it a joke that I'm not there for your banquet?" Lu Xian gently took a sip of the red Lafite, his eyes were cold, and his voice was as cold as usual.

Shen Qian lowered her eyes and looked at the wine in her hand, a little tired. She thought of the phone call this morning, and her brows furrowed: "Lu Yuhui is your sister?" ”

Lu Xian obviously didn't expect her to ask this question, he raised his eyebrows and said, "En? Something? ”

A word of grace obviously gave Shen Qian an answer, and she had a headache, "She called me this morning and said that she came to Shanghai." ”

Lu Xian's eyebrows were obviously twisted, he knew a little bit about Lu Yuhui's affairs outside, but in view of the particularity of her study in the Soviet Union, she didn't do more in-depth understanding, only knew that she had done her homework very well every year, and she would have graduated this year, but it stands to reason that she should go to the ancestral house in Beiping, how could she go to Shanghai, an eventful place?

"And where is she now?"

"I heard her say it was at a friend's house. Knowing that we were going to have a banquet here today, the little girl felt tired and didn't want to come. Said to come back in a few days. ”

"Friends?" How did he not know that Lu Yuhui would have friends in Shanghai?

"Well, it's a classmate she made in the Soviet Union, you can call her yourself and ask her." Shen Qian frowned, she didn't like Lu Xian to talk to her like a tortured prisoner.

Lu Xian also realized that he was a little out of shape. But there was no way, Lu Yuhui's return to China was a surprise to him for the Lu family. They are the Lu clan in Beiping, how many people are staring at it, if something happens to Lu Yuhui on the road, Lu Xian is very doubtful that he will go back to the ancestral house to kneel in the ancestral hall.

At the right time, someone stepped forward, dressed extraordinary, with a decadent atmosphere between the eyebrows and eyes, and at a glance, he knew that he was a person who spent time and drank every night.

Li Ji stepped forward with a wine glass and a sneer on his face: "Commander, how are you doing recently?" The contemptible people have been very worried about the stock market lately, and the army commander can be regarded as making a lot of money. ”

The person who came was the director of the floating cruise company, who was nearly fifty years old, but still spinning in Vanity Fair, and I heard that he had secretly climbed into the Japanese recently, and he was very close to the Japanese company.

"Chairman Li is polite, I'm just a layman, I'm lucky to hit this big stock, if compared to Chairman Li, I'm still a newborn calf, if there is any offense, please bear more." Lu Xian's answer was not leaky, and while knocking on the side to attack his ignorance of this matter, he secretly calmed Li Ji's mind. 、

"Where, where, in the end, it was Li who ventured. As the saying goes, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves. Li Ji stood on his shoulders, a little restrained.

Shen Qian listened to it on the side, secretly pulled a sneer, but did not show it, raised his glass and touched it, smiled gently sideways, and eased the atmosphere: "Chairman Li is really busy, I held a small banquet for the ladies to exchange feelings, how did you let you catch my family Xiyi and continue to talk about work, you look at this big night, don't you see me." ”

Li Ji didn't understand this sentence, but he couldn't help it, he was asked to be introduced today, and he didn't want to let go back if he hadn't touched the hot yellow croaker in his hand.

Mrs. Lu laughed. I didn't see you, mainly because I brought in a guest tonight, and your army commander is a busy man, so I finally had a chance, I can't waste it in vain, you say yes. Come, this glass of wine, I salute you, do it first. Li Ji's face was a little sharp, and she happily dried the red wine in her hand, which made Shen Qian a little meaningful, and then she smiled: "I just said it casually, I see that you are in a hurry." You see that Xiyi didn't speak, what I said can be used as a joke, don't take it to heart. ”

Li Ji is in such a hurry, could it be related to the person he wants to introduce tonight?

This is said so clearly, Shen Qian is not boring, and Lu Xian naturally can't leave pretending not to know. The circle of celebrities in Shanghai just needs you to come and go, and you don't have to be rude, this old Chinese saying is still good.

"Then you guys talk slowly, I'll go over and say hello first." Shen Qian raised his glass to Lu Xian, then turned sideways and smiled at Li Ji, and then twisted his skirt and left. On the opposite side is Gu Yao Mingzhen's circle, after waiting for Shen Qian for a long time, a little bored, Shen Qian naturally wanted to be like Lu Xian in the past to appease people's hearts.

Lu Xian squinted at the glass in his hand, his slender fingers on the thin glass tube, and the diamond ring on his ring finger, which was particularly bright, "Chairman Li, it's better to sit and say like this, please-"

Lu Xian pointed his finger to the leather sofa near the corner of the wall, a hospitable gesture.

Li Ji waved his hand unhurriedly, and sneered a little by the way, "Commander, before this, I want to introduce a colleague to the Commander of the Army." After that, a middle-aged man walked with his companion not far away, combing his back hair, smearing hairspray on his head, and reflecting the light slightly under the crystal chandelier. Because I wear glasses all year round, my eyes are a little protruding and puffy.

"This is Mr. Matsumoto Ichiro, the president of our Shanghai Japanese Chamber of Commerce, and this is the current Shanghai town guard Commander Lu Xian." Li Ji pulled a line in the middle, which was regarded as an intermediary and introduced the people on both sides.

Lu Xian raised his glass and smiled: "Mr. Matsumoto? Fortunately. ”

The implication is that he does not want to have deep friendships.

In the end, the Japanese are annoying everywhere.

But Ichiro Matsumoto didn't want to miss this opportunity. He gathered his focus, his eyes sharpened, and he took the sharp word characteristic of a businessman, "Commander, I have long admired your name." Now that I see it, as the rumors say, the army commander is really young and promising. ”

The peculiar Japanese face the difficult and rigid language of Chinese, and word by word pops out of Matsumoto Ichiro's mouth. With a faint urgency, Matsumoto Ichiro began to get closer to his purpose.

"I heard that the War Commander is not only a military officer, but also a merchant in the stocks. I admire this very much. Matsumoto Ichiro looked at the cold and noble person in front of him, and for the first time, his tongue was closed, and he couldn't speak.

Lu Xian raised his eyebrows, he knew that this pine was already menacing, and he would definitely not leave easily. He bowed his head, as if he knew, and then ushered the man into the sofa, put down his wine glass, leaned on the back of the sofa, one hand casually rested on the sofa arm, and the other hand rested on the casually folded legs, gently and slowly hitting the beat.

"Mr. Matsumoto said this, but it hurts me, there is Chairman Li here, the old man of the stock market, I am pure luck, and I dare not make an axe in front of everyone." He paused, and then slowly smiled, a little cold, "How can I, Lu Xian, be able to get such praise from Mr. Matsumoto?" I'm just a brick-throwing guy at best. ”

It's really a brick throw.

Put aside the brick of Mitsubishi & Co., and pull out the Japanese-style dark forces buried behind it little by little from the Shanghai Concession.

It can't be eliminated, but in the end it can greatly demoralize the Japanese side. It can also indirectly support the Lu family's heels in Shanghai.

To put it bluntly, this battle is not only a business war, but also the first stepping stone for the Beiping Lu clan in Shanghai.

Memorable.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to have the best of both worlds?

Matsumoto Ichiro's face was a little ugly, but he suppressed his eyebrows, trying to calm the desire in his heart to draw a gun against the man in front of him. It doesn't matter, the Chinese will always be self-sufficient, China more than ten years ago was, and China more than ten years later. Matsumoto Ichiro is very confident, this seemingly extraordinary Chinese in front of him actually has the common disease of Chinese, conceit and pride. It doesn't matter if you can't negotiate a business, that's what he wants to find out the most.

The snake hits seven inches, as long as the opponent's weakness is clear, it is like a weapon, with a light blow, even the most powerful king of ten thousand soldiers will be shattered into a useless thing in an instant.

"The War Commander is really joking." Matsumoto Ichiro laughed, but unfortunately he didn't laugh to the bottom of his eyes, "I don't believe that the War Commander just relied on the word luck to cause one of our chambers of commerce to suffer such a heavy blow." Alas, I remember that there is an old Chinese saying that is 'forgiving others and forgiving others'. Commander, I think it's better to be a man, you have to leave three points of leeway, what do you say? ”

Lu Xian smiled coldly, like the flowers of the snow ridge blooming on the high mountains, not to be offended. He calmly rolled his gaze to the laughing crowd in front of him, "Oh? Since Mr. Matsumoto is talking to me about this, I will answer you seriously. He leaned over and hooked up the glass, opened his lips and tongue against the rim of the glass, and pressed a large mouthful, and at the end of the pale lip flap revealed a bright red luster, dazzling in the soft light, and at the moment he was like a demon, lazy all his life, "There is an old Chinese saying, Mr. Matsumoto must have heard of it." It's called 'If people don't offend me, I don't offend anyone.'" After speaking, he got up and raised his wine glass, and smiled slightly: "I'm sorry, I'm going over to greet the guests, you guys use it slowly." ”

The latter sentence, although the vocals are full of voices and the music is symphonic, but for Matsumoto, it is still not deep or shallow.

If anyone sins against me, I will offend.

It's a big problem. Matsumoto's frowning eyebrows made him gradually realize that this figure was not an ordinary soldier's burly man, but he seemed to have a delicate heart that was more difficult to figure out than ordinary people.

"Ahh What's wrong? ……”

"Why are the lights out? ……”

"It can't be done on purpose, right? ……”

Matsumoto Ichiro only felt a sudden gloom in front of him, and then immediately smelled danger. The surrounding crowd began to discuss hotly, and more of the uneasiness spread in the crowd.

Shen Qian darkened her eyes and rubbed her panicked eyebrows, she knew that as soon as Lu Xian came out tonight, there would be nothing good to ensure that there was nothing good. He went home early, not only to support her Shen Qian, but more importantly, he was afraid that he would trap the fish in this accident, and what she wanted to do was to be a perfect Mrs. Lu.

"Everyone, be quiet, it's not an accident, it's just a new game I've brought, it's called - Three Minutes Lovers."

"Lovers of three minutes? ……”

"What's new in this? ……”

“……”

Shen Qian knew that she had to be calm, and she had to have a stable image of everything to stabilize the morale of the army. "Three-minute lovers, as the name suggests, is in this dark three-minute period, the ladies and sons walk to the center of the banquet, and the people who choose to dance with them according to their own hearts cooperate tacitly in the three-minute piano waltz, and carry a dance, after the dance, whoever can pick the most roses around in these three minutes will win, becoming the most tacit pair we recognize tonight." As he spoke, there were already servants standing in the central circle, holding a vase, and a rose blooming in it, taking advantage of the faint moonlight, adding a different kind of beauty to the Lu Mansion.

Who else doesn't understand? Who doesn't want something with a more halo on a celebrity who is given away for nothing? Become the dance praised by Mrs. Lu of the Lu Mansion tonight, who doesn't want to have it? Not to mention, you can take advantage of this ballroom dance to catch a few favorite sons. There are many wonderful things, and the opportunity cannot be missed, and the loss will not come again. After thinking about it like this, many celebrities and sons stood in the middle, and under the moonlight, they faded away from the drunken gold fans of the past, leaving a layer of bright moon white.

Shen Qian sat at the grand piano in the corner, closed her eyes and thought about the past, a "minuet" slowly came out from her fingertips touching the black and white keys, with a low prelude, slowly and rapidly, no violin accompaniment, only the piano made a crisp sound under the black shell, a little monotonous, but more slowly crossed the moonlight around Shen Qian, like returning to the beauty of youth, purity, abandoned boredom, self-abandonment, such as spring flowers, such as the rising sun, such as the sea of clouds, such as Liulan.

At the end of the song, there is only so much time left for Lu Xian.

Shen Qian raised his eyes and looked at the man coming downstairs, the moonlight was very faint, but he could still cover his cold eyebrows and eyes through the mullioned window, faintly rejecting people.

"Click."

With a soft sound, the lights were bright in an instant, and everyone was a little unable to adapt, so they blocked their eyes with their hands slightly. Shen Qian was illuminated by the strong light, her eyes hurt, and for the first time in her heart after so many years have passed, she has the urge to scold, the burning heat stings her eyes slightly, and there is a mist slowly filling her eyes.

She didn't know why, she was a little abnormal today, and she always felt that someone was looking at her, and that person must be the person she knew best.

The young man who often enters her dreams has peach blossom eyes that can melt ice and snow with a slight bend.

Although, it's quite impractical.

Back then, I already watched him die in my arms.

Figures come and go, and they are in a hurry. After a dance music was put down and the best pair was selected, Shen Qian suddenly became tired, depressed, and a little embarrassed. She looked at Lu Xian's expression, it was clear that she was going to have a long talk with her after the dance, she had a headache, and she didn't know why everything had been piled up together in the past few days to deal with.

There is no way to avoid it, as soon as Shen Qian raised his eyes, he saw Lu Xian walking over with steady steps.
