Chapter 1: The Farthest Man Nearest (36)
Jing Yi picked up the water cup to drink and looked at the miserable green boy. Shu Ma is leprosy
"Misme?" The pretty young man stood down.
Jingyi gestured to Xiaomei. She looked at the beautiful young man who was a little cramped, and intuitively felt that this would not be Xiaomei's dish.
Sure enough, as soon as Xiaomei looked back and saw the person clearly, she didn't hide her boredom and frowned.
Jingyi lowered her head to cut the steak, and listened to Xiaomei's words to send the young man.
Once upon a time, her cousins would do the same to those suitors. Merciless, even somewhat cruel.
Oh, once upon a time, and once upon a time.
She couldn't help but shake her head and laugh at herself.
Back in Shanghai, she seemed to have turned back to the past......
"Dean Cheng?" Anita Mui whispered Jingyi.
"It's not in the hospital, call me Catherine......" Jingyi looked up and found that there was another person in front of her. She took a closer look, it was the one she had seen before, Mei Jikang, Anita Mui's uncle. is looking at her with a slight smile. She nodded slightly.
This Mr. Mei San, it has appeared a little frequently these days.
Mei Jikang took off his top hat, nodded his head, and said, "Mi Sicheng." β
"Mr. May." Jingyi put down the knife and fork, gently reached out, and shook it with Mei Jikang.
Mei Jikang smiled and said, "I didn't expect to meet you here." β
Anita Mui said: "We finally came once, and we just used your seat, and you touched it again." β
"I'm here with a friend, go sit over there." Mei Jikang said busily.
"We're all right." Jingyi also said. She said, beckoning to the waiter.
"You're welcome, I'm here for the moon." Mei Jikang said.
Jing Yi smiled, looked at Anita Mui, and said, "Mr. Mei, don't be polite." I'm treating Xiaomei to a meal today. β
"Oh, it turns out that you are so polite, it's all for me." Anita Mui deliberately exaggerated.
Mei Jikang smiled, and it was inconvenient to hold on any longer.
Jingyi settled the bill smoothly and paid the tip. Xiaomei wanted to leave with her, and Mei Jikang opened the door for them diligently. Before getting into the car, Xiaomei whispered in her uncle's ear, and Mei Jikang smiled.
Jingyi asked the driver to take a detour to send Mui Yanchun home first.
When she arrived at Mei's house, Jingyi didn't get out of the car, and after Xiaomei entered, she glanced at Mei's house number. 7 Gisfield Road. It is a white Spanish building, very new. Like this building, in Shanghai, the Mei family should also be regarded as an upstart. Anita Mui's grandfather was born on the dock, and it was only when her father, Mei Mengxian, did the shipping. In less than 30 years, he is already one of the richest people in Shanghai. Although Mei Mengxian is still one of the bosses of the Shanghai Tang Youth Gang, he is also known for his generosity.
These, Jingyi is very clear.
"Let's drive." Jingyi said. She has a lot of worries - when she returns to Shanghai, she not only steps back to the past, but also seems to have stepped into a strange circle, opening her eyes and closing her eyes, all she thinks about is money. Money......
The car turned two corners, but still didn't get out.
Her driver seemed to be lost.
Fortunately, the scenery is especially good, and she doesn't mind taking a few more looks.
The car made another turn and passed a mansion. This should be the No. 6 next to the Mei family.
She thought that when she first came, Xiaomei introduced her to the mansion at No. 6 as the most beautiful in this area, but it was a pity that the owner's family was not an ordinary person, and she couldn't visit it if she wanted to...... She glanced at itβthe heavy black-lacquered gate, embedded in the very high courtyard wall, with the branches hanging from the walls, and the dark blue that is characteristic of midwinter shrouded the walls, and immediately felt like a courtyard deep.
A small side door opened at this moment, and out of it came an old maid dressed in a black robe, covered with a turban, showing only her face and her hand holding the vegetable basket.
Just a glimpse, Jing Yi was stunned.
