Chapter 22: Missing

In fact, the banquet building is also Huang Chujiu's industry, located near the big world, and has always been the first choice for successful people with status to entertain guests. In fact, in the big world, there are many mobile vendors, many famous snacks in Shanghai, such as crab roe buns, crab shell yellows, fried dumplings, fried steamed buns, pork ribs rice cakes, sugar pear paste, wine-stuffed balls, etc., there are about 66 kinds of food, which can be bought here. It's just that Boss Huang has a treat, so naturally he can't be so stingy, so he chose his own high-end restaurant and set up two tables, giving Gu Chuanbiao enough face.

Wang Mengxiong couldn't sit at the main table because of his young age, so he sat with Gu Chuanqi and a group of half-grown children. The masters of the banquet building are all hired with high salaries and exquisite craftsmanship. I heard that it was my own boss who was feasting, so I naturally took out a twelve-point level, and all kinds of exquisite dishes were placed on the table, full of color, flavor, and flavor, which caused these children who had never seen the world to move their appetites and couldn't help but drool. Although Wang Mengxiong also thinks that the chef's skills are good, he has long been immune to this kind of food after being bombarded with programs such as China, Chinese taste, and daily food in later generations. After a few bites of food, I felt that my stomach was full, so I took the initiative to get off the table and ran outside alone to breathe. Gu Chuanqi also enjoyed such a high-end banquet for the first time, and he only cared about grabbing good food with other children, and he didn't notice that this little brother had slipped out of the door.

At this time, it is the time to eat, whether it is a private room or a hall, there are guests everywhere eating. The waiter is constantly serving dishes and thoughtfully asking guests what else they need. The guests whispered about various topics of interest or exchanged business experiences through the wine, and no one noticed a child walking through the hall.

The night is dark, and the neon lights are shining. Shanghai really lives up to the reputation of this oriental city that never sleeps, with all kinds of neon lights and thousands of lights covering the entire night sky with a layer of colorful light. Even at this time, the streets are still full of people and traffic, revealing the luxury of drunken gold. Wang Mengxiong walked out of the door of the hotel, sat down on a step at the side door where the light did not shine, and looked at the bustling crowd on the street, his mind still dreamy, as if all this was so unreal.

"Alas!"

A long sigh echoed in my ears. This sigh also represents Wang Mengxiong's state of mind, which makes him feel the same way. Suddenly he realized that something was wrong, for the sigh was not his, but someone else. Wang Mengxiong hurriedly looked around, and finally found the source of the sound. A child in a beige suit, a black bow tie, black hair smeared back and thin, eyebrows, deep eyes, red lips and white teeth, sighed on a bench beside him.

Wang Mengxiong was a little funny, this child looked like he was born in a wealthy family and had no worries about food and clothing, how could he learn to sigh for no reason. Curious for a moment, he slowly leaned over and asked, "Hey, kid, are you alone?" Why don't you be happy to sigh here! “

The kid was probably thinking about something, so he didn't notice Wang Mengxiong on the side, let alone how he appeared next to him. At first, Wang Mengxiong's voice also startled him, but when he found out that it was just a child who was slightly older than himself, his expression was obviously relaxed, and then he frowned: "What did you say?" Who are the children? As if you are old, can you not learn the tone of the adults? “

"Yoh? I didn't see it, this is still a master who refuses to suffer! “

Wang Mengxiong also immediately woke up, although his body contained a young and mature soul, this young body was still the same as the child in front of him. Always uses the original thinking to talk and do things, but it seems a little old-fashioned, no wonder this child is disgusted. It seems that what to say at what age is also a necessary way to get along with people. If you talk like this all the time, I'm afraid you won't have any friends!

"I said it wrong, I'm sorry. Little brother, don't you eat well in the middle of the night, hide here and sigh, did your parents beat you? Or were you being bullied by other kids? Speak up and listen, maybe I can help you come up with an idea? “

The kid glanced Wang Mengxiong up and down, and could see from his clothes that he was not a child of a rich family, but he was able to eat in the banquet building, and he was a person with a related background, and it was not easy to refuse someone's kindness. Moreover, Wang Mengxiong, as a traveler, has one of the biggest differences between him and today's children is that he loves to be clean. Other children may not take a bath once in ten days and a half months, but Wang Mengxiong has to take a bath almost every day, even if there is no hot water, he has to take a shower with cold water. As for the clothes he was wearing, he washed them very frequently, so much so that Gu Chuanqi secretly laughed at him like a little girl.

Maybe it was Wang Mengxiong's pure eyes, or maybe it was not the pungent smell he imagined, but the smell of fresh sunlight that smelled clean and good, the child slowly let go of his guard and disdain, and took the initiative to talk to him.

After listening to a few words, Wang Mengxiong understood why the child was hiding in the corner and sighed, it was funny to say, it was actually a child who encountered a rebellious period, because his parents were busy with work and entertainment, so he had a feeling of being left out. Especially after my mother gave birth to a younger sister, this feeling became more and more intense.

"How old are you?"

"Five-and-a-half!"

"How old is your sister?"

"Just one year old!"

Wang Mengxiong was happy when he heard it, and his feelings were the same as those families in later generations who had a boy in the family and had a second child with a good policy.

"Little brother, you are a typical person who does not know the blessing in the midst of blessings! There are parents who love you, and a little sister, who can't be asked for by others, and you still sigh, making me, a child who doesn't know who his parents are and where he is, envy to death! “

"I also have a sister!"

The kid retorted softly.

"I have a sister, and this time I have a younger sister, so you are a boy in your family. In my opinion, your parents must treat you like a sweetheart, how can they snub you? But sometimes adults still have to do things, and they have to make money to support their families, and occasional negligence is inevitable, you should be considerate of them and earn money to support your three sisters and brothers, how difficult it is! “

After Wang Mengxiong finished speaking, the kid nodded as if he didn't understand, and asked a little confusedly: "Maybe I'm too careful, but they really don't lack money, and I don't see how difficult it is to make money!" “

When Wang Mengxiong heard this, his feelings were really a master who was not bad for money, and his words were a little self-inflicted. Fortunately, this kid can think about it himself, otherwise he really doesn't know how to persuade him.

As the two men were talking, a black cloth sack fell from the sky with its mouth open, enveloping the two men in it. The bag was quickly tightened, carried on a man's shoulder, and ran away, disappearing into the dark corners and alleys of the street. The sack was covered with a kind of incense powder, and Wang Mengxiong and the child only sniffed twice before they passed out, and they didn't even have time to shout, so the doorman of the banquet building who was close at hand didn't notice that the two little guests were stolen unconsciously.
