Chapter 53
"Who?" Jian Yi just gave her a calm look and said, "Sister Hua has been really suspicious these days," she said and jumped down a step and hugged her neck affectionately, "Let's go!" I'll take you to play! ”
Hua Tingting laughed angrily, but she couldn't shake off the hand hanging on her shoulder, "Such a big thing happened just now, you actually said you didn't know?" ”
Jian Yi was really curious now, "What happened to Sister Hua?" ”
"Don't play stupid for me." Hua Ting's tone was cold and quiet, and his momentum was not pressing, but Jian Yi still saw some doubts.
"Sister Hua, what kind of person do you think I am?" Jian Yi's eyes were soft and clear, and he looked at her mischievously, "Good guy or bad guy?" ”
Thinking of the assassination of the Japanese official in the Juxintang Teahouse that day, Hua Ting looked at him hesitantly, and after a moment of confusion, he said, "Do you think you are a good person or a bad person?" ”
Jane also glanced at her, and somehow, this glance made her feel indescribably strange.
"Traitor." I actually admit it myself.
Outside the hotel lobby, not far from the opposite side is the noisy people's voices, Hua Ting looked up, the border between the road and the café erected a sharp wooden fence, the edge of the wooden fence is guarding a dozen Japanese and foreign soldiers, and outside is a pile of hundreds of Chinese people; She saw a woman in a pink Japanese kimono, stepping on a pair of 5-centimeter brown clogs, and accidentally knelt on the concrete floor outside the wooden fence and wept bitterly.
The assassination of this Japanese was carried out by the Shanghai government, which mobilized quite quickly.
Jian Yi raised his head and glanced across the road, and said in a light tone: "It's another street murder." ”
"What? Isn't it strange to hear your tone? In the second window of the café opposite, Chen Shu's figure was long gone.
"That's, numb." Jian Yi tugged at her arm and inadvertently quickened her steps, "I'm starving, let's go eat something first." ”
As soon as Hua Ting raised her head slightly, she saw the tips of the hair on the back of Jian Yi's head flying in the air in the breeze, and the beads of sweat on her forehead were also flashing with a different color in the faint sunlight, "Jian Yi, who are you?" She actually felt that the smile that bloomed from Jian Yi's mouth at this moment was pure and full of hope.
"Your most hated traitor." The answer is consistent......
The palm of her hand slipped between Hua Ting's arms, and Jane also took the opportunity to grab her palm in her palm and squeezed it hard.
"Jian Yi, if you don't tell me who you are, I won't marry you." Smart as a flower, he knows how to blackmail what he cares about most.
"Sister Hua, what are you suspecting about me?"
A few rays of sunlight leaked out of the gaps in the sycamore leaves on the side of the street, hitting the top of Jian Yi's head; Hua Ting looked up at those little bits of light and shadow, and his heart was lifted into the air in disbelief.
In the end, I was suppressed by the sentence "Didn't Sister Hua always know that I was a traitor".
The dark blue soft-topped sedan slowly passed by her, and Chen Shu's faint eyes fell on the broad wrist that covered her left hand, and there was a feeling called vinegar that swelled his ribs and chest, and it hurt when it overflowed.
"Jian Yi, if you don't tell me who you are, don't think I'll marry you." Hua Ting deliberately added an accent to the second half of the sentence.
Jian Yi didn't eat this at all, and squeezed her eyes at her and said with an ambiguous smile: "It's as if I sued you, and you will marry me." ”
"Yo, I'm pretty self-aware."
"But......" Jian Yi tilted her head on Hua Ting's shoulder with a sweet look, "I have the confidence to conquer you." ”
Hua Ting slapped his face on the side, "you." ”
actually forgot about Mrs. Bai in the fabric workshop.
When night fell, Jane also took Hua Ting's arm and forcibly took her to Bai Qihong's casino, saying that she was looking for Jian Maosheng.
Bai Qihong, the largest luxury casino, stands in the center of the Bund in Huangpu District, facing the river, like a huge birdcage, meaning "only in but not out", and in the drunken ten-mile foreign market, every gambler has become a caged bird in this golden birdcage.
When you enter the casino gate, there are long tables with a green background, and the dealer stands aside with his hands in his hand, smiling at the movement of the cards at each table. Hua Ting paid a little attention, the few gambling tables in front of her were playing the most popular push pai gow, and opposite her at the moment was the famous but well-known lustful and gambling Fujita Shoji, and on the side was Lu Jinnian, who was also good at gambling, with a milky face; He and the middle-aged man opposite each covered three pitch-black pai gow, overpowering a return to the village, and the first two cards were turned over in turn.
Lu Jinnian's card is Ding San, Fujita Zhengji's card is white four, Hua Ting approached Lu Jinnian's ear and said: "If you are lucky, you can open the biggest card." ”
Lu Jinnian's eyes lit up, "Tianpai? ”
"Clever."
The atmosphere on the cards was gloomy, and Shoji Fujita stared at a pair of smart and delicate eyes on the opposite side, and casually put on a pile of colorful chips to show his magnanimity.
With Lu Jinnian's temperament, he is naturally full of followers.
This one, it is really a heavenly card, and Lu Jinnian wins.
"Miss Bai is my goddess of luck." Lu Jinnian had a childish smile on his lips.
Fujita Shoji was not angry, and invited flowers to join him.
Hua Ting naturally cooperated, rolled up his sleeves and sat in the seat of the middle-aged man opposite Lu Jinnian, "If you lose, count me, and if you win, count you." ”
The middle-aged man who was forced to stand up finally looked better after hearing Hua Ting's words.
Hua Ting's posture was casual, and he even crossed Erlang's legs, kicked the tips of his shoes on the foot of the table one by one, and lifted the two cards covered in his hand to the table, without looking closely, he asked Lu Jinnian on the other side, "How much?" ”
Lu Jinnian did not hesitate to push all the chips on the table, "Playing with Miss Bai is all interesting." ”
Fujita Shoji and the dealer were all surprised, and they did not hesitate for a moment to put all the chips on it.
Hua Ting leaned lazily back on the back of the velvet chair, waiting for the rest of the cards to be pressed.
Hua Ting, who has watched many Hong Kong gambling dramas, knows that the most important thing at the gambling table is momentum, and she is not afraid of losing, so she is even more arrogant.
The rest of the players stared at the stack of chips on the table, but they couldn't relax for a long time.
Fujita Shoji tilted his head and waited for a long time, raised his eyebrows a little impatiently, covered his mouth and yawned as a warning.
The man's palms trembled, and he swiped all the chips on his chest.
Since Lu Jin's flop, his is Ding Four, Fujita Shoji's card is White Six, Hua Ting will take the cards in his hand casually, Ding San.
"Ding three with two or four," she smiled like a flower, "the monkey king is right, the supreme treasure, eat it all." ”
"I'll just say that Miss Bai is always lucky." After losing so much, Lu Jinnian didn't feel distressed.
"Miss Bai is a good card." Shoji Fujita also smiled unhurriedly.
"It's just lucky, I only know a little bit about Pai Gow," and at the critical moment, he also knows modesty, "Playing cards, isn't it the word win or lose." "The most important thing is not the style of stage fright, even if you lose, you have to pretend not to care, which is the style of the gambling king.
It's over, Brother Zhongfa's poison is not shallow.
Shoji Fujita slapped her twice with extreme cooperation, and the appreciation in his eyes was full of appreciation.
Bai Qihong on the second floor had been standing at the corner of the staircase corridor for a long time, and at this moment, he did not hesitate at all, and said to the man in black beside him: "Go and call the flowers." ”
The fan hanging in the box on the second floor whirred, swaying as if it was about to fall, through these dense wind sounds, a few traces of sweet sound from the old phono player, just revealing one or two sentences of beautiful singing with lyrics, can make the heart of the flower listen to swell into a strong nostalgic mood at this moment.
In addition to Bai Qihong, there are also Jian Maosheng and Jian Yi in the box.
Bai Qihong's thick palms pressed against the smooth carved mahogany tabletop, which seemed to be able to cover the greasy fat in the sultry heat.
"What did I do again?" Hua Ting said impatiently.
Bai Qihong laughed unexpectedly, "Committing a crime? Not really. He gently closed the palm of his hand resting on the table, and sure enough, there was a shallow sweat stain on the table.
Hua Ting's brain was also dripping with hot sweat.
When did air conditioners start to be introduced to China?
How can you stand it without air conditioning in this big summer?
The door of the box was knocked open, the waiter came in with tea, and Hua Ting casually leaned on a hollow carved wooden chair and lazily closed his eyes, "What is the matter?" Inadvertently, I heard the crisp sound of the cups colliding, but it dissipated a lot of the heat in my heart.
Bai Qihong said: "Are you interested in taking care of the casino business for me?" ”
"What!?" Hua listened to Yan zhòng and suspected that he had misheard.
"I've been too busy lately to take care of the things in the casino," Bai Qihong raised his eyebrows and asked again, "Hua Ting, are you interested?" ”
