CHAPTER XVII
Jiang Dewen couldn't say what he felt in his heart. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info If you want to say that you are being snatched away from your love, it's not like that. After all, the two have known each other for a long time. Moreover, he has always been in awe and awe of Rong Zixiao's eldest brother. And he doesn't seem to be comparable to him. Than what? Compared with knowledge, height or appearance, it seems that there is really no advantage at all.
But such a flower was placed in front of him, saying that he wanted to give up, but Jiang Dewen refused to do anything. Especially seeing that Rong Ziyi's expression was as polite and detached as ever, and he did not show special preference and interest in Miss Bai, Jiang Dewen added confidence to his ideas. After all, what woman likes to be cold and distant, and not to be courteous and thoughtful? It's just that in front of the Rong and Yang families, he is too obvious to do well. But he must find out her contact details today and find a way to make a good impression on her. After all, there is still a long way to go.
Rong Zizhong and Yang Yushi saw that Jiang Dewen was absent-minded, and they knew that they couldn't ask anything from him, so they gradually communicated with themselves. When he saw the opportunity, he wanted to join the conversation between Rong Ziyi and Bai Lulu.
"What are Miss Bai and Brother Rong talking about? It's a very speculative conversation. Jiang Dewen asked a little abruptly.
"But Mr. Rong has a question that he wants me to help answer." Bai Lulu was glad that someone interjected, because she didn't know how to answer Rong Ziyi's question about how she and Rong Zixiao got acquainted. It stands to reason that casually saying a few lies is already commonplace for her, but in front of Rong Ziyi, there is always a feeling that there is nothing to hide from lies. Therefore, it is better to divert the topic.
"I didn't expect that the knowledgeable professor Rongda would ask Miss Bai for advice. Miss Bai is also a scholar? Jiang De obviously misunderstood what Bai Lulu meant.
"Academics?" Bai Lulu smiled: "I'm a person, but I only know a few words." Her eyes turned to Rong Ziyi: "Mr. Rong is a scholar? ”
"I've only been teaching for a few years." Rong Ziyi said lightly.
"It turns out that Miss Bai and Brother Rong are not very familiar with each other." Jiang Dewen was afraid that the conversation between the two would remove him again, so he hurriedly said: "Brother Rong used to be a distinguished professor at the University of Hong Kong, and after returning to Shanghai, he is now the financial secretary of the new government. ”
Bai Lulu knew that Rong Ziyi had connections with the Japanese, and she also saw that his family background was illustrious and extraordinary, but she really didn't expect Rong Zixiao's brother to hold such an important position in the new government. She frowned imperceptibly, surprised, and secretly recalled in her heart her words and deeds when she met him twice. The revelation of Rong Ziyi's identity made some of his behaviors even more inexplicable, and in her eyes, it became even more mysterious.
Many Shanghainese look down on the officials in the new government, and their position is actually quite embarrassing. Those who have money in the family do not bother to earn that little salary. Those who have the slightest sense of justice deeply hate the Japanese who invaded China. The new government is clearly in league with the Japanese, so everything that can be extricated from it is far from the new government. Among the officials serving in the new government, there are mostly careerists and speculators, but not many are from families. Jiang Dewen didn't know Bai Lulu's identity, and deliberately said Rong Ziyi's official position, which was somewhat tentative, if Bai Lulu could dislike Rong Ziyi, it would be more in line with his mind.
It's just that after Bai Lulu heard this, she didn't have any special reaction, just lowered her head, put her hand on the table and rubbed the coffee cup. At this time, her white wrist was exposed, and there was a jasper bracelet on it, which was crystal clear and exquisite, and it reflected the wrist. Jiang Dewen is knowledgeable and can see that this bracelet is very valuable. Looking at the hands again, they are also white and tender, properly maintained, and I think they are pampered on weekdays. But her outfit is really low-key and usually tight. Jiang Dewen secretly pondered in his heart, this white beauty often goes in and out of various occasions, her attitude is calm and generous, and she does not have the shyness and shyness of Xiaojia Jasper. As for the family, there should be some money.
"Miss Bai, haven't you asked what you do at home?" He was indeed very curious.
Bai Lulu raised her eyes and looked at him: "There is no one at home, only me is alone in Shanghai." ”
"Oh?" Jiang Dewen was a little surprised: "Then how does Miss Bai make a living?" ”
As soon as he asked this, many people present pricked up their ears. Yang Yushi and Rong Zifan even turned their heads to look at her.
Bai Lulu said cryptically: "I am currently self-employed. ”
"Self-employed? I don't know what kind of line Miss Bai is doing? I have long seen that Miss Bai is not simple, and it is as I expected! In China now, there are many wars and many people have been displaced. A weak female streamer is helpless, and she can survive in the mixed Shanghai beach, and obviously takes care of herself quite well! Well, it's really amazing, it's really an independent new woman in the new era! It is not an exaggeration to say that Miss Bai is a heroine among women, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a heroine. Jiang Dewen was a little exaggerated and exclaimed. He hoped to win Bai Lulu's favor through this, after all, who doesn't like to listen to beautiful words?
Yang Yushi knew the details, and couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard this. But she also felt that something was wrong, and quickly covered her mouth.
Jiang Dewen didn't understand what was ridiculous about what he said. He sighed sincerely, but when he heard it in Bai Lulu's ears, it turned into a sarcasm like a knife. She looked around, Rong Zixiao's expression was unbearable, and Jiang Yuerong was a little embarrassed. Rong Ziyi lowered his eyes expressionlessly, picked up the cup and took a sip of coffee.
Bai Lulu had actually refined King Kong's incorruptible body a long time ago, but at this moment, an evil fire burst out of nowhere, and she simply tore her face and broke the jar. She took out a cigarette from her bag, put it on her finger, and laughed at herself: "Actually, in our dance hall, there are still many heroines like me. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was embarrassed. Jiang Dewen was stunned, there were not many places in and out of Fengyue, but there were times when he looked away. In fact, if it were a different occasion, he would never admit his mistake. But because all of the people here are from ordinary family situations, he didn't think about anything else from the bottom of his heart, and Bai Lulu was indeed a little different from the dancing girl he knew.
As for Rong Zifan, who has known Bai Lulu's identity for a long time, I think she is a young woman after all, and admitting it in public can't help but feel sorry for her. Jiang Yuerong secretly blamed his brother for being reckless and embarrassing in front of so many people.
Yang Yushi regretted her smile just now. She didn't mean to look down on Bai Lulu at all, but Jiang Dewen's words were stupid, which really made her happy. But seeing Bai Lulu's current appearance, and feeling that she seems to have been uncovered by someone, I am afraid that she will inevitably feel humiliated and sad.
