Chapter 135: Negotiating the price
"Promise, why not!"
Chu Yigong's invitation is still quite important for Wang Mengxiong. In any case, Lu Yongxiang, the Songhu Protector hidden behind him, is a real Anhui warlord and a powerful faction. Even if Wang Mengxiong still knows Duan Dashuai, the biggest leader of the Anhui department, but the county officials are not as good as the current management, and in the territory of Shanghai, Lu Dashuai is a well-deserved king. At least it was able to smoothly invest in Yongan Company, and the tiger skin that was pulled out played a huge role.
In line with the psychology of having a good relationship with Chu Yigong, that is, having a good relationship with that person, Wang Mengxiong agreed to Chu Yigong's request to relay Miss Ruth without hesitation after giving Chu Yigong the last injection. Chu Sisi and Chu Baobao, who were guarding the side, heard that this magical little brother was going to go out to explore No. 69 Fushuang Road, and immediately ignited a fire of hope, begging their grandfather to follow the little brother to see the excitement.
Although Chu Yigong dotes on the children of these two grandchildren, he is not so irrational that he will not lose his rationality. After all, the ferocious reputation of Fushuang Road 69 is so monstrous that I don't know how many lives have been taken into it. If it weren't for the pity for Ruth's parents and loneliness this time, he would have opened his mouth to Wang Mengxiong's little miracle doctor. Of course, this is also more suitable for him to witness the magic of the little god doctor, or the little fairy. This is also a recognition of Wang Mengxiong's ability, and if he feels sure, he will accept this request. If he also shy away from No. 69 Fushuang Road, then he will return to Ruth, and will not let his benefactor take risks.
But for Chu Sisi and Chu Baobao, let the two of them follow Wang Mengxiong into No. 69 Fushuang Road, in the eyes of Old Man Chu, it is not to love children, but to harm children. Although he trusts Wang Mengxiong's ability, if there is any misstep due to distraction, it is unacceptable to him.
"You two stay at home obediently, and don't have the slightest thought of going to see the excitement. That kind of murderous house, Wang Fan is very dangerous alone, let alone taking the two of you with a burden. If you really like Brother Wang Fan, don't go and make trouble for him. When the matter is over, let Brother Wang Fan tell you what happened slowly, and it will definitely satisfy your curiosity! ”
Although the two curious babies were unhappy in their hearts, they didn't dare not listen to Old Man Chu's words, so they could only pout, and turned to beg Wang Mengxiong to tell them what happened like a story. In the hearts of the three of them, no one thought about what would happen if Wang Mengxiong failed, perhaps in their subconscious, this eight-year-old child brought too much magic, and there was no such thing as failure in the dictionary. The cultivation of this kind of confidence is not the success of one thing and can be influenced, but Wang Mengxiong's series of magical methods, such as finding out Chu Yigong's poisoning, such as allowing everyone's injuries to recover quickly, such as letting ghosts rest in peace, and finding out the hidden bad guys, one by one. It happened to them or saw it with their own eyes, and there was no doubt about it.
Miss Ruth and Wang Mengxiong met in a café, and she was still accompanied by Chu Yigong's nephew, Chu Ming. Although Miss Ruth was surprised by Wang Mengxiong's age, under Chu Ming's strong recommendation, and because of the failure of the people she hired, she had to pin all her hopes on this child who was said to be magical. Yes, although Ruth herself is only 14 years old, no matter how she looks at it, she thinks that Wang Mengxiong is a child. It's just that this child is handsome and good-looking, has steady manners, and even his actions of drinking coffee are so skillful and natural, as if he grew up drinking coffee and eating Western food every day since he was born. Knowing that this idea is ridiculous, Miss Ruth always insists on this view in her heart.
"Maybe this kid was a gentleman from Britain in his last life?"
Ruth thought so, but was ashamed of this godless thought. After all, what is instilled in the Church is that the soul will either return to God or be reduced to the food of hell and Satan, and this idea of reincarnation only exists among those savages.
Wang Mengxiong only glanced at it, and engraved the appearance and expression of the family of three in the photo in his mind. At this moment, he tapped the coffee spoon in his hand lightly, put it aside, took the coffee and sniffed the aroma deeply, and tasted it slowly, letting the coffee liquid overflow his lips and teeth, roll over the tip of his tongue, flow through his throat, and slowly swallow into his stomach.
This familiar feeling reminded him of the scene of drinking coffee with a girl at Starbucks, the taste was similar to this one, but things were not everything, and the girl with bright eyes and bright teeth in front of him was replaced by a blonde foreign girl.
The name "Xiao Min ......" flashed from the depths of his memory again, stringing together the memories that he had deliberately forgotten in his mind, forming a scene of flashing pictures, like a slideshow, so that the scars in his heart were uncovered again, bringing bursts of bloody pain.
"Wang Fan, Wang Fan, what's wrong with you?"
Chu Ming noticed that Wang Mengxiong's face suddenly turned pale, and he looked very painful with his eyes closed, but he still couldn't help but shout. He made a lot of efforts to win Miss Ruth's favor, but he didn't let the goddess in his heart care, and only this time he introduced Wang Mengxiong to her, which really made the goddess pay attention. If Wang Mengxiong had any accident at this time and let the goddess's affairs come to naught, then all the previous efforts would be useless, how could he accept such a result.
"It's okay, I got distracted, and suddenly I remembered someone!" Wang Mengxiong waved his hand to show that he was fine, and said to Ruth again: "I have already seen the photos, if it is really still in the house, I will try my best to show it to you." It's just that the world is impermanent, and I won't give you this package ticket. If it succeeds, it's your luck for me. If it doesn't work, you won't be responsible for my losses, but you will not be less rewarded. ”
"Naturally, if I get the thing behind the photo, I will pay an additional 30%. If it doesn't work, or if something misfortune happens, I will transfer the promised reward to Mr. Chu Yigong and let him hand it over to your family! ”
"So be it, thank you for the coffee, it reminds me of some wonderful things. I'll get back to you when I hear from me! ”
After Wang Mengxiong nodded, he walked out of the coffee shop quickly. Miss Ruth looked at his vanishing back, and still couldn't help but say, "Misterchu, I still can't believe my eyes. Do you think he's really only eight years old? Why does it feel like I'm sitting with a twenty-year-old English gentleman drinking coffee and talking about things? My God! It's a weird feeling, as if the whole world is starting to be abnormal except for that child! ”
Chu Ming nodded, feeling the same way. But he was actually no longer surprised, after all, in the Chu Mansion, Wang Mengxiong brought him a greater shock than in front of him. "This child is precocious and cannot be inferred by common sense. In short, you should treat him as a peer or a bigger person, so that your psychological gap will return to normal and you can get along with him better. ”
"I'm still feeling dizzy, Misterchu, let's find a bar and have a drink. I think alcohol clears my numb nerves! ”
"Oh my God, Ruth. Are you an adult? Which bar will sell you alcohol? ”
"I'm not an adult, but isn't there still you? Don't tell me that you're not an adult, this is your territory, I don't care, just have a drink! ”
"Okay, but only for one drink. Otherwise, my uncle will know that I invited you to drink, and I am afraid that you will be scolded! ”
"Let's go, not a gentleman at all, not as good as a child!"
