Night, Paramount.
The dim lights are dazzling, the gentle singing and dancing are peaceful, and pairs of well-dressed men and women are dancing, drinking, or talking in low voices in this ambiguous environment. The atmosphere is extremely good.
Everyone seemed to be very happy, but there was something strange about this happiness.
On the surface, they all seemed to be focusing on what was in front of them, but in fact, they would glance in one direction inadvertently.
Very casual!
It seems to be just a subconscious action, but this action is done too much, and there are too many people doing it, so it is impossible not to attract people's attention.
However, the few people who were the focus of attention did not pay much attention to the eyes of outsiders.
In the innermost private room, on the spacious single sofa where Gao Ning Dama Jindao sat, there sat a woman wearing a cheongsam on the left, with a dignified and beautiful appearance and a charming temperament.
She always had a slight smile on her face, she didn't speak, but it couldn't be ignored.
Ding Li and the mayor sat across from each other, flanked by Ruxian and Wu Chuntian who joined halfway.
On the sofa to the right of Gao Ning, Ah Xing, who looked like a dog, and Chow Tai Fook, who looked like a dog, were sitting.
These two people are worthy of being grandfather and grandson. The way they look at Ruxian and Wu Chuntian can only be said to be exactly the same.
As a result, Gao Ning's smoking movements were a little inconsistent, and the reason why his eyelids were half-closed was mainly because he felt it was a bit embarrassing to know Ah Xing.
Ding Li and Mr. Mayor are indeed important people. Not only are they not displeased at the expressions of Ah Xing and Chow Tai Fook, but they are also able to talk and laugh happily.
It was as if the reaction of the two people was a normal reaction.
"Mr. Gao, thank you for your help today, otherwise my whole life of fame would have been ruined at the hands of a villain like Huang Huanggui!" Ding Li raised his cup and solemnly thanked him.
Gao Ning waved his hand: "You have already said this, don't repeat it again and again, it's just a little effort! I mainly want to save my friends, you are just helping me!"
Gao Ning spoke very rudely, but there was no trace of displeasure on Ding Li's face.
This is of course related to the way Gao Ning appeared on the stage before.
It's more because he hasn't found out the details about Gao Ning so far.
This is simply unbelievable for the Shanghai tycoon.
If Ding Li wants to check someone, he only needs a phone call, and he can get to the bottom of it in one or two hours at most.
But the person in front of me seemed to have emerged from the ground, leaving no trace at all.
The earliest record he could find was of this person standing on the pier wearing a luxurious bathrobe provided by the hotel.
Did this guy get off the boat directly?
That's not right. Where did the people around him come from?
There were many questions in his heart, but he was not in a hurry because he saw the reactions of Ah Xing and Chow Tai Fook. Since both parties knew each other, this was a clear breakthrough.
With my relationship with the two of them, how can I still fail to get information by just using some tricks?
Contrary to Ding Li's enthusiasm, Mr. Mayor went with a somewhat unswerving expression.
It wasn't because Gao Ning didn't pay much attention to him, but because he couldn't walk away even if he wanted to.
As long as he dared to show any intention of leaving, a masked man would appear in a certain direction, staring at him indifferently.
The masked man neither spoke nor moved. He just stood there and watched, motionless, like a statue.
Every time this time comes, Mr. Mayor feels a little hairy in his bones and has a strong premonition.
As long as you dare to walk out of Paramount, you will definitely die at home tonight!
He knew that all this was ordered by Gao Ning, and that's why he didn't understand that he was a dignified mayor. Why did this guy dare to do this to him?
Could it be that...he already knows about my agreement with Miss Yoshiko Kawashima?
Mr. Mayor has to think so.
Because this is the only shameful thing he has done in recent times.
Of course, this is from his own perspective.
Ding Li kept trying to talk to Gao Ning, but Gao Ning was not very interested.
After trying it a few times, Ding Li decisively put an end to this idea and no longer used the words he had learned before to close the relationship. Instead, he directly raised his palm and introduced it to the woman sitting on the armrest of Gao Ning's sofa.
"Mr. Gao, I forgot to introduce you to the famous Miss Wang Danfeng. She is a big star and has acted in many movies!"
"oh?"
Gao Ning glanced at her in surprise. The woman reached out and smoothed the hair around her ears, revealing a shallow smile. There was not much intimacy in her eyes, but instead they were as calm as water, and there was even a trace of resistance.
Gao Ning didn't care about the woman's emotions, but was a little surprised to see the movie star at this time.
He thought about it, and it seemed that movies had already existed in the early 20th century, first in Europe, and now gradually reaching Shanghai.
However, film in this era was very expensive, and every movie shoot was a big project, and all the photos produced were silent black and white photos.
To be able to become a movie star under such circumstances, this woman must have merit, and she is not bad looking... but she is just good.
Are you kidding, is Gao Ning an ordinary person?
Who around him is not a stunning beauty?
"Nice to meet you!"
Gao Ning nodded politely and ignored him.
Ding Li frowned vaguely, but soon relaxed, as if nothing happened.
"It's spring, where do you usually like to play? Tomorrow should be a nice day, how about we go for an outing together? I make soup dumplings that are delicious. I will make some tomorrow and we can take them to eat together?"
"Spring, how did you and Miss Ruxian meet?"
"Spring, where do you live? It's not far from here. It's a little dark now. Otherwise, I'll take you back later!"
"Spring! Although I look old, I'm actually only in my early thirties. I'm still an unmarried young man. I'm strong and can make money!"
"Spring..."
Compared with Gao Ning's quiet chat, Chow Tai Fook's chat was lively.
Strictly speaking, it was Chow Tai Fook himself who was having the most lively conversation. He kept pestering Wu Chuntian without any distractions, and the look in his eyes seemed to contain the word "want".
And Ah Xing, who was sitting next to him, also followed suit, interjecting from time to time and looking for opportunities to talk to Ruxian.
Ruxian was originally Ding Li's female companion, and did not want to talk to Ah Xing, but the atmosphere here was really too heavy. Under Ah Xing's constant pestering, and repeated encouragement from her friends, she began to answer every sentence.
The four people seemed to form a small group and chatted very happily.
After a while, the mayor finally couldn't bear it anymore. He stood up suddenly, stared at Gao Ning and said: "Mr. Gao, I am very grateful to you for saving my life and the lives of many gentlemen at gunpoint, but I would like to ask a question. , why don’t you allow us to leave?”
Gao Ning raised his head and glanced at the mayor, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly: "You can really bear it! After enduring it for a whole afternoon and a night, almost six hours, you finally said it?"
The mayor looked a little ugly, and the table suddenly became quiet.
The words of the two people also woke up Ah Xing and Chow Tai Fook, and they looked over suspiciously.
Ding Li didn't speak, just leaned on the sofa and puffed away.
He had already seen such an obvious thing.
After coming down the mountain, Gao Ning brought the group of people directly to Paramount.
Paramount is now Ding Li's territory. After arriving here, he has quietly spread the word.
Despite the calm situation at this time, there were actually hundreds of gunmen hidden in several surrounding houses.
But they didn't dare to act rashly.
Because Paramount now is controlled by men in black wearing white masks.
They were as silent as stone. They neither spoke nor drank water for the whole afternoon. The hands holding the guns seemed to be welded there, always on alert.
Although the direction of the gun muzzle is a safe area, there is no human activity.
But the muzzles of these guns were crossed, and Paramount had been sealed off unknowingly.
All the guys who attended Xu Wenqiang's funeral were not allowed to leave.
The mayor took a few breaths, suppressed his anger, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Gao, please speak directly! It's getting late, and our wives, sons and daughters are still waiting. So many things have happened today. I think everyone is tired. Extremely awesome!"
"Do you want to go home?" Gao Ning suddenly turned his head and asked the people below who were talking in twos and threes.
The music stopped suddenly, and everyone looked at Gao Ning, glancing vaguely at the man in black hidden in the shadows. No one took the initiative to speak.
Gao Ning smiled and looked at the mayor: "Look, no one agrees with you!"
"Mr. Gao, you just need to state your conditions!"
The mayor is no longer ready to talk in circles, there is no point!
Although this guy is not as arrogant as Huang Jingui, who is ready to kill people and silence them whenever he comes up, he is equally arrogant to the point that he not only doesn't take him as the mayor, but also doesn't take the entire upper class of Shanghai in the eyes.
You must know that the people attending Xu Wenqiang's funeral today are all well-known people. If one of these people is singled out, they may not be worth paying attention to.
But if everyone's connections are connected into a network, it will become an extremely terrifying force.
In the mayor's opinion, no one would be stupid enough to offend such a huge force for no reason.
However, this Mr. Gao in front of him did exactly this, and he did it without any scruples, as if he didn't care about them from the bottom of his heart.
It was this feeling that made the mayor extremely uncomfortable and aggrieved.
Gao Ning was noncommittal.
He reached back, and a man in black walked out of the shadows, offering a cup of tea with both hands.
Gao Ning took a sip and put it gently on the coffee table. He glanced at Ding Li and the others and smiled slightly: "Now that we've said it, let's just say it straight. To be honest, I'm interested in your news. channel!"
Ding Li's expression moved slightly but he didn't speak.
Ah Xing's eyes were a little weird. He covered his mouth with one hand and moved his lips a few times. The sound came clearly to Gao Ning's ears.
"Brother Ning, what are you doing?"
Gao Ning ignored him and said: "To put it bluntly, I am going to attack the footbath chicken people. Recently, they have been dancing too hard and it has affected my mood!
It's just that I didn't pay much attention to these guys before, and I don't know where there are more people or where they are more important.
So I turned to the well-informed upper-level people for help! "
Gao Ning smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and knocked on the coffee table: "Everyone give me an address. If there are more than ten people in this place, you can leave.
If there are not enough people, you must give me another address!
If it exceeds a lot, we can also pay the price of five oceans per person! The money is not much, I just express my attitude, I hope everyone can understand! "
"Of course, you should know what kind of people I want. Don't name the areas where expats gather. Although these people are also accomplices, in my opinion, they are not worthy of death!"
Does sin not lead to death? !
Hearing these four words, almost everyone's pupils shrank.
Ding Li sat up straight and stared at Gao Ning. He almost blurted out a sentence, but suddenly thought of tonight's situation and swallowed it back.
But at this time, he finally understood what Gao Ning was thinking.
Good guy, this one is more ruthless than me. He directly declared war?
The mayor still didn't speak, his eyes were deep and his cheeks were twitching, obviously he was balancing in his mind.
Gao Ning looked at his nails and said lightly: "No need to mention Xiafei Road, it's already on my list. I'll go there and have a look soon!"
You can carefully weigh the pros and cons. Should I teach ten foreigners who have nothing to do with you and may even have conflicts of interest? Or should I conflict with my savior because of these guys?
I don't care, and I am a generous person who doesn't hold grudges. No matter which one you choose, I understand! "
Having said this, Gao Ning also glanced at the dance floor below and showed a warm smile to those guys who looked a little frightened.
However, this smile almost made them scream out in fright.
"Brother Ning, what are you going to do? Do you want to make it so big? Are we changing history? After we go back, the history teacher must not go crazy?
And, if I remember correctly, Sister Run is the teacher, right? Oh, by the way, she seems to teach English, so that’ll be fine! "
Gao Ning was speechless for a moment and glared at Ah Xing fiercely.
Ah Xing scratched his head with a smile, bumped the nervous Chow Tai Fook with his elbow, and winked, "You know, Chow Tai Fook." He instantly felt relieved and turned his attention to Wu Chuntian.
Seeing her sweetheart's two little hands tangled together, the handkerchief was almost twisted into a twist. Knowing that she was extremely nervous, she quickly comforted her in a low voice.
Ruxian looked at Ding Li for a while, and for a while he looked at his father. Seeing that both of them looked a little strange, he bit his lip, not knowing how he should help them.
After a moment of silence, a man suddenly walked over to the dance floor below. There was a layer of sweat on his forehead. It was obvious that he had to go through some mental struggles to be the first to show up.
However, when he was about to speak, the mayor suddenly said: "I know that Huang Huanggui has been staying at No. 27 on the Bund recently. It is said that there is Miss Kawashima's temporary residence. It's just not clear whether it is true or not! "
Gao Ning raised his eyebrows.
This old guy is so straightforward!
He raised his hand to signal for release.
Seeing the masked man who had been staring at him disappear into the darkness, he let out a long breath, glanced at his daughter, and tentatively stepped out. When he saw that the masked man did not appear again, he suddenly felt happy and quickened his pace. Under the gaze of everyone, he actually walked out of Paramount smoothly.
Now, everyone's eyes lit up!
