When he saw this woman, Meng Shaoyuan's head was as big as eight!
He also suddenly had an idea:
I no longer want to be the district chief of Shanghai District. I will travel far away and arrange a job for myself in any remote place.
Anyway, I won’t go back to Shanghai.
Never return.
There is only one woman in the world who can make Master Meng think about abandoning his official position and staying away from Shanghai:
Kong Lingyi!
At this moment, Kong Lingyi appeared in front of him alive.
The first thing I said was:
"Meng Shaoyuan, you are bragging again. Do you still want to go riding?"
From the first second he saw Kong Lingyi, Meng Shaoyuan said:
"Wu Jingyi and Xu Zhu stay here. Everyone else, you've almost eaten. Go home and rest."
Ping Fuchang and others hurriedly got up and left.
At this time, Meng Shaoyuan said with a calm face: "Xu Zhu, mobilize no less than three teams to monitor the surrounding area and protect this place. Anyone who appears suspicious and tries to approach will be killed without mercy!"
"yes!"
"Wu Jingyi, choose a reliable female agent to protect the eldest lady's safety."
"clear."
Now, Gao Fanyi, who was Kong Lingyi's bodyguard, finally understood why Meng Shaoyuan was able to sit alone in the big city of Shanghai at such a young age.
From the first time he met the eldest lady, he immediately made arrangements.
Everyone who did not know the identity of the eldest lady was sent away to protect the secret of the eldest lady in Shanghai to the greatest extent.
Then, the eldest lady was protected in all directions.
"Steward Qiu, gun." Meng Shaoyuan said in a deep voice.
Butler Qiu immediately took out his gun.
Meng Shaoyuan took it, checked it carefully, and put it in his pocket: "From now on, her code name is, 'Yam Egg'!"
Of course she was talking about Kong Lingyi.
"Bah!" Kong Lingyi said "bah": "You are the potato!"
"It doesn't sound good." Meng Shaoyuan muttered: "The code name is 'Potato'!"
"This name, huh? Isn't it still a potato? Meng Shaoyuan, you did it on purpose, right?"
Wu Jingyi knew that asking Master Meng to give him a name was really embarrassing, so she hurriedly came closer and whispered.
"Ah, from now on, her code name is 'Purple Narcissus'."
In this way, Kong Lingyi was somewhat satisfied.
"My eldest lady." Meng Shaoyuan then said with a bitter look on his face: "You said you came to Shanghai, just let the branch committee know, and you came quietly. If something happens, my head will still be injured." Don’t want it anymore?”
Kong Lingyi didn't care either: "If something happens to me when I come to Shanghai, what does it have to do with you, Mayor Meng?"
"Oh, you said it lightly." Meng Shaoyuan's teeth were itching: "Theoretically, it's fine, but what if something happens? Your uncle will have to remove my head."
"It would be fun to take your head off." Kong Lingyi's eyes fell on Crete: "Who is this person?"
From beginning to end, only Krait was not affected, sitting there motionless.
"This is Crete." Meng Shaoyuan quickly introduced: "He is a foreigner and does not understand the rules. Xiao Ke, this is the eldest lady, and that is an important person in short."
Kong Lingyi smiled: "Is that the foreigner you picked up in Shanghai?"
Hey, the word "pick up" is used very wonderfully.
"Hello, Miss." Crete finally stood up: "Although I don't know which Miss you are, I am lucky enough to have three lives after picking you up."
"What did he say?" Monk Kong Lingyi was confused.
Meng Shaoyuan was also startled before he realized: "The meaning of "three lives of good fortune", this kid's idiom is all messed up."
"It's quite interesting." Kong Lingyi pursed his lips and smiled: "Everyone, please sit down."
Tell me, it was a good New Year's Eve dinner, but when this young lady came?
Who still wants to eat?
"Meng Shaoyuan." Kong Lingyi's face suddenly became serious.
"exist."
"I rushed all the way to Shanghai and didn't even eat. Today is New Year's Eve. Are you going to make me so hungry?"
"Ah, yes." Meng Shaoyuan suddenly realized: "Go and notify the International Hotel to prepare the best room and the best dinner."
Kong Lingyi was so angry that he wanted to kick this guy's ass.
Wu Jingyi knew that Master Meng was having a seizure again, but she couldn't react to the simplest thing: "Steward Qiu, prepare clean dishes and chopsticks, and scald them carefully with hot water. Let the cook make some hot dishes again, and be more delicate. .”
"Miss, do you want to eat here?" Meng Shaoyuan looked unhappy: "These are home-cooked dishes. Do you think they can be judged by you?"
Kong Lingyi's face showed displeasure: "Meng Shaoyuan, you seem to dislike me?"
"Miss, it's not that you're not welcome." Meng Shaoyuan said with a frown: "What are you using? French perfume, British bath powder, Hong Kong snacks. Now in this critical period of the Anti-Japanese War, where can I get these for you?"
"When you come to Shanghai this time, keep everything simple." Kong Lingyi said calmly: "This year's New Year's Eve dinner will be eaten here."
"You eat, you eat." Meng Shaoyuan sighed: "If you eat, no one can eat in peace."
Gao Fanyi had a good relationship with Meng Shaoyuan when he was in Nanjing. When he heard this, he coughed repeatedly.
"Gao Fanyi, stop coughing, or you may cough up blood." Kong Lingyi looked at Meng Shaoyuan coldly: "What is there that he dare not say or do? Dai Yunong loves him, and my uncle also loves him. He is confident and fearless. .”
At this point, he sighed softly: "Actually, what he said makes sense. I am always cheered by and supported by others. When I come, they naturally feel uneasy and cannot say some things that they could have said. Forget it. Come on, let’s go, don’t disturb them.”
"Don't, don't." Meng Shaoyuan relented: "If you don't dislike it, just eat it, I'm afraid it won't suit your taste."
Kong Lingyi smiled brightly and sat down again.
Wu Jingyi found it funny in her heart. Kong Lingyi was holding Meng Shaoyuan's life tightly. It was useless for Master Meng to reason with him and threaten him. His biggest weakness was that he could only accept the soft and not the hard.
Butler Qiu took the bowls and chopsticks.
"Gao Fanyi, you have worked hard all the way, let's sit down and eat together." Kong Lingyi acted as if she was the owner here: "Rose Mansion is famous in Shanghai, and the original owner, Ms. Cai Xuefei, also knows life best. You Have you seen this butler? His surname is Qiu, he is Ms. Cai’s most trusted butler, and he speaks fluent English. The meals he arranges are probably exquisite, not as rough as some rough people."
"I'm rough, I'm rough."
Meng Shaoyuan picked up the chopsticks in front of him, took a piece of food and put it into Kong Lingyi's bowl: "You are also a delicate person, so just eat slowly."
Gao Fanyi's expression changed.
Meng Shaoyuan actually used his own chopsticks to add food to the eldest lady? This is a taboo for young ladies.
What he never expected was that Kong Lingyi didn't care at all, and actually took a bite, and then praised him profusely: "This is kale. It has been chilled with ice. Although it is cold now, kale must be eaten this way to make it delicious." .”
"What the eldest lady said is absolutely correct." Butler Qiu said calmly: "This was shipped from Guangdong yesterday. It's not much. I had people waiting to buy it before dawn yesterday."
"I just said that Butler Qiu knows how to eat." Kong Lingyi smiled slightly: "Steward Qiu, I suddenly want to eat a dish of ham and vegetables. Do you have any here?"
"Yes, I will prepare it for the eldest lady."
What kind of person is Butler Qiu? As soon as he heard it, he knew that this young lady must have something to say to Meng Shaoyuan, and she couldn't let herself hear it.
After Butler Qiu left, Kong Lingyi said: "Meng Shaoyuan, you handled the case of the disappearance of the U.S. plenipotentiary envoy in Shanghai very quickly. If something happens to Mr. Kendall, it will definitely undermine the plans of the National Government. This time I come to Shanghai, I also want to thank you on behalf of my father. After all, the Ministry of Finance is also closely involved in this matter, and we are waiting for a loan from the United States."
Meng Shaoyuan was silent.
Kong Lingyi asked: "Why don't you speak? This is not your style?"
Meng Shaoyuan smiled bitterly: "What can I say? Kendall, Plenipotentiary Representative of the U.S. Government? I know what's going on. Many people know what's going on, but they just can't say it. They dare not say it. Tang Dujin committed suicide out of fear of guilt and died. Well done, a wonderful death. Once he dies, the world will be at peace. Once he dies, many people will be able to sleep at night."
"Meng Shaoyuan, don't be sarcastic." Kong Lingyi was not annoyed at all: "Everyone just needs to know many things well, and some things have to be done even if you don't want to do them. By the way, this time I came to Shanghai, my uncle said for a long time I haven’t seen you, but I miss you so much. During the war of resistance, Shanghai was at the forefront, so the Bank of China, which he was in charge of, donated 200,000 yuan to the Shanghai District of the Military Command Bureau. He also personally donated 100,000 yuan to the Shanghai District to express his determination to fight the war. .”
Song Ziwen knew about Tang Dujin's death, but he remained silent.
These three hundred thousand, these three hundred thousand! That's a life!
"Also, my father also asked me to tell you." Kong Lingyi continued: "The Shanghai District of the Military Command Bureau worked very hard, fighting the enemy and suffering heavy casualties. Meng Shaoyuan took charge of the overall situation alone and did not panic in the face of danger. This is a model. Therefore, the Ministry of Finance The government has specially allocated 200,000 yuan, and I happened to be in Shanghai, so I brought you all this money."
Gao Fanyi immediately took out three checks and put them on the dining table.
A total of five hundred thousand yuan!
At that time, when the Military Command Bureau was first established, its monthly budget was 50,000 yuan.
But this time, Song Ziwen and Kong Xiangxi spent half a million yuan with a stroke of their pen!
This is not for the Shanghai District of the Military Command Bureau.
This is for Meng Shaoyuan.
This is a huge amount of hush money!
Meng Shaoyuan could never tell the truth about this matter.
forever!
"Wu Jingyi, keep the money." Meng Shaoyuan cheered up: "Miss, please help me thank Mr. Song and Minister Kong for their kindness when you get back. Just say that I, Meng Shaoyuan, can't even speak to money when I see it. I won’t even chew my tongue.”
Tang Dujin is dead and this matter is irreversible. The most important thing for Meng Shaoyuan now is how to protect himself.
"I will definitely convey it." Kong Lingyi smiled lightly: "When I come to Shanghai this time, I have another private matter that I would like to ask for your help with."
"Miss, please tell me."
"I want you to help me kill someone."
"who?"
"Yasumi Yanagawa!"
"who?"
"Yasumi Yanagawa!"
