Chapter 33: The Frog Prince

Seeing Xiao Shunzi's bitter face, Chen Zikun feigned anger and said: "Yesterday I bragged that I was good at mixing, I am familiar, and I asked you to borrow a suit, and you have learned badly, Xiao Shunzi." ”

"Brother, I can't help you find it." Xiao Shunzi frowned sadly, and led Chen Zikun into the side door, which was the passage for the service staff to enter and exit, the corridor was dimly lit, and the sound of the saxophone and the woman's laughter could be faintly heard in the distance.

Xiao Shunzi is white and black, dressed as a waiter, his sideburns are shaved and smooth, his hair is like a teapot lid, and he has a lot of hair wax, and he greeted his colleagues affectionately, and when there was no one in the corridor, he quickly opened the door of the storage room, lowered his voice and said: "Wait for me here, don't run around." ”

Chen Zikun flashed in and stayed in the storage room for nearly ten minutes, and Xiao Shunzi finally came back, holding a big burden in his hand, covered in sweat, and with two lipstick marks on his face.

"Brother, for you, I even sacrificed my hue." Xiao Shunzi opened the baggage, and inside was a black night dress, silk shirt, wool dress top and pants, all freshly washed, the shirt collar was extremely crisp, and the trouser line was ironed as straight and sharp as a knife.

"There's a pair of leather shoes missing." Chan said.

"I'm afraid of you." Xiao Shunzi lowered his head and took off his leather shoes, and offered them with both hands, he was born with big feet, and the size was just right with Chen Zikun.

Chen Zikun quickly took off the coolie clothes on his body, changed into a shirt and dress, put on his leather shoes, snapped his fingers and said, "Hair wax." ”

"Yes, I'll give you all this stock." Xiao Shunzi took out a small iron box from his arms, which was solidified wax, Chen Zikun pulled it out with his fingers, wiped it on his hair and brushed it back twice, and a big oily and slippery back came out.

He couldn't get enough of it, so he took out a pinch of hair from his old clothes and dipped it in some saliva and stuck it on his lips, and two beautiful mustaches came out again.

"Tsk, people rely on clothes and horses and saddles." Xiao Shunzi took a step back and praised sincerely.

Chen Zikun was not bad looking, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a face like a crown of jade, long legs, a thin waist and a back, and then wearing Western-style clothes that set off his body shape, he looked even more handsome and handsome.

Xiao Shunzi looked at Chen Zikun left and right, as if admiring a work of art made by himself, "There is still a bow tie missing, you wait, I'll find it." ”

"No need." Chen Zikun is about to open the door and go out.

"Brother, my own brother, you can just go shopping, don't talk nonsense with others, this dress was taken down by a French guest to wash, if the stuffing is exposed, my messenger will be smashed, you must remember." Xiao Shunzi chattered in the back.

"Got it, I've got it." Chen Zikun opened the door and strode towards the front hall, Xiao Shunzi was frightened in the back, and he couldn't rest assured, and followed from a distance.

Chen Zikun walked on the passage leading from the kitchen to the dining room with a big grin, a pair of eyes touched around, and suddenly saw the embroidered gold and white silk curtains hanging by the wall, and saw that there was no one around, so he pulled out a bayonet and cut off a piece and wrapped it around his neck, like a chic scarf.

Xiao Shunzi, who was quietly following him from a distance, almost turned his back on his breath.

It just so happened that a waiter came over with a cold cut, and the plate contained sliced Harbin Russian red sausage.

"Smack" Chen Zikun snapped his fingers, and the waiter immediately stopped.

Chen Zikun picked up a piece and ate it, and scolded: "How can you eat it so salty, pour it all out and feed it to the dog." ”

The waiter was stunned and looked at him blankly

"Look, go." Chen Zikun was stunned.

"Oh," the waiter hurriedly turned around.

"Wait."

The waiter stopped again and watched as the man took down the white napkin that he had tucked at his waist.

"Go ahead." Chen Zikun sent the waiter, folded the napkin, pinned it to his chest, coughed dryly, and entered the restaurant in a big way.

A Beiyang general came over, with a straight blue-gray tweed uniform, three stars on gold epaulettes, white gloves, and a command knife.

"Your Excellency, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing?" Chen Zikun actually took the initiative to greet the strange general.

Xiao Shunzi, who was following behind, even had the heart to die at this time, biting his nails and praying: "God, bless this troublemaker to stop today." ”

The admiral showed a puzzled expression, obviously unable to collect any information about the young man in front of him from his memory bank, but the people who could come to this kind of occasion were high-class people, and since they were so polite, he couldn't be rude.

"Thanks to you, it's fine." Admiral said.

"That's great, I have a few old friends too, and I'm missing." Chen Zikun nodded elegantly, pretended to go to his acquaintance, and walked over quickly, and the waiter guarding the door didn't realize what invitation he wanted at all.

The restaurant of the Six Nations Hotel is extremely spacious, usually used as a dance floor, today is a cold buffet, the hall looks around, suits and leather shoes, jewelry, men are wearing elaborate evening dresses, some still wear medals on the placket, ladies are all glamorous, competing with each other, whether Chinese or foreigners, most of them use English and French to talk.

Chen Zikun took a martini from the table, leaned against the corner and watched the guests, a slightly evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his appearance immediately attracted the attention of a group of idle and bored noblewomen, who threw him flattering glances one after another.

Chen Zikun also noticed this group of boring girls who were obsessed with lust, raised his glass and made a gesture of inviting them, squeezed his eyes by the way, and immediately made the girls fascinated, the small fan in his hand shook rapidly, and a beautiful woman who still had charm stood up impatiently, ready to come forward to talk, and at this time Chen Zikun had found his prey.

It was a tall and thin middle-aged man, who looked more kind, and Chen Zikun deliberately stepped forward and bumped him, and Martini splashed on the other party.

"I'm sorry sir." Chan pulled out the napkin pinned to his chest and pretended to be a handkerchief to wipe the gentleman's wet clothes, and with two fingers he quietly took out the invitation card that the other party had placed in his inner pocket.

The waiters also came to help, and Chan took the opportunity to withdraw and slipped out of the ballroom.

……

The fireworks are ready to be set off in the open space in front of the Six Nations Hotel, in order to avoid congestion, so temporary admission tickets are issued to limit the appearance of idle people, these people who take admission tickets are not qualified Chinese people, in order to see the Western scenery on a cold day, gathered on the street of Dongjiaomin Lane, each other is still complacent, proud.

Lin Wenjing shuttled through the crowd, excited like a free bird, carrying her father and stepmother out to play, which gave her a particularly exciting feeling, and suddenly there was a familiar figure in front of her, wasn't that Wang Yueqi.

"Wang Yueqi, you're here too." Lin Wenjing fell from the sky, startling Wang Yueqi, thinking of the ticket, she immediately felt empty, and said in anticipation: "I...... My relatives later found a ticket, and I came by myself with only one copy, so you won't be angry. ”

"How so?" Lin Wenjing said, obviously didn't take this seriously, Wang Yueqi breathed a sigh of relief, and thought to herself that her ticket was given by Senior Xu, and she wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, so she had to endure it.

The temperature in Beijing is very low in winter, and the people waiting to watch the fireworks are stamping their feet coldly, looking enviously at the well-dressed VIPs in the glass window of the Six Nations Hotel, there is plenty of heating, wine, music, and shirtless foreign girls, but the Indian guards at the door are like iron towers on both sides, and there is a strict foreign foreman, anyone who does not have an invitation will be turned away, even if he is the chief cabinet or the Beiyang general.

Wang Yueqi muttered: "If only Senior Xu was here, he must have a way to lead us in." ”

Lin Wenjing blinked, she didn't want to go into the Six Nations Hotel to play at all, she could sneak out to see the fireworks, he was already satisfied.

Suddenly, a very magnetic voice sounded behind him: "Isn't this the young lady of Mr. Lin's family of the Ministry of Education, I don't know if I have the honor to invite you to the ball?" ”

Lin Wenjing and Wang Yueqi turned around at the same time, and found a personable gentleman standing in front of him, a night dress with black satin gun lapels, two vigorous mustaches, and a pair of eyes like stars in a cold night, extremely bright.

Wang Yueqi was suddenly stupid, and Lin Wenjing was at a loss, and muttered, "You...... Do you know my dad? ”

In fact, she wanted to say yes, why are you so similar to my coachman, but this sentence finally didn't come out, because that would be thought to be a brain problem, this gentleman is obviously a member of the upper class, and Uncle Chen, who pulls the car, can't go together.

Probably just a coincidence, Lin Wenjing didn't take it too seriously, and the big question she faced at her was whether she should accept this strange man's invitation.

Wang Yueqi scratched her ears and cheeks anxiously, eager to agree instead of Lin Wenjing.

"Lin Wenjing, it's a rare opportunity." She whispered.

"Okay...... Uncle, what is your surname? Lin Wenjing's fun-loving nature finally prevailed, but she was not so stupid as to forget to ask someone's surname.

Chen Zikun felt a sense of frustration in his heart, why am I still an uncle.

"Oh, my name is Victor." Chen Zikun stretched out an arm, just as a car was coming, the waiter opened the car door, and a couple of upper-class couples in night dresses held each other's hands and got out of the car and entered the door.

"This girl is so easy to deceive, this is not a good sign." Chan thought to himself.

When he came to the door, the foreign foreman asked in French, "Sir, can you take a look at your invitation?" ”

"Oh, of course, here." Chan spoke in French with a Parisian accent and pulled out a beautifully printed invitation.

The foreman took a look at it, and it read on the forehead of Mr. Lin Changmin of the Foreign Affairs Committee, and he did not suspect fraud, returned the invitation, and said in stiff Chinese: "I wish you all a good time." ”

Smoothly blended into the restaurant, Chen Zikun saw Xiao Shunzi in the corner, and winked at him proudly, Xiao Shunzi saw that Chen Zikun actually brought a beautiful girl in, and almost vomited blood on the spot.

"Brother, what are you going to do?" Xiao Shunzi let out a wail in her heart.
